Do you frequently take advantage of Golden Gun? Do you already have a legendary or exotic helm?
Yup I'm using the Gunslinger. I've got the legendary Queens guard mask right now, don't have anyother exotic gear.

Haha yeah that's a pretty ugly helmet, that ability bonus sounds useful.
 
A letter came in mail and said it was a gift from an unknown benefactor. Took it but cant find it anywhere.

I think those are usually bounties? Does it show up in your bounty list? Failing that, if you take it to the bounty dude, does he offer you a "special" bounty before you get to the main bounty list?
 
I actually think it's mostly a problem with base level strikes. Heroic strikes feel fine, imho. Your team can deal more burst damage, and the fights are more about managing adds.

Don't get me wrong, I definitely felt like they were dull and bullet spongy when I was leveling up. (Which is very arguably the worst time for it to feel that way)
Nightfall strikes and the raid have intermediary mechanics that don't simply boil down to "try not to die" "shoot at that thing" for 10 minutes. But you're right, base levels strikes are absolutely a problem.

...er....the only mechanics that change in the nightfall is the wipe to orbit and stuff like Arc Burn which should be old hat to most people by now.

The Raid is one thing - very unique - but Nightfall is essentially just an extra hard version of the standard Strike missions.
 
I like its abilities so far as a Gunslinger, but good Lord, it is so ugly.

Eh... I think most of the hunter helmets I've seen haven't been super top shelf, tbh. It's either some iteration on RotJ's Boushh, some Michael Bay transformers lookin' thing, or some sort of helmet with a biological component.

Those upgrade abilities though... Man, you pair that with some FWC gear increasing your cooldown for grenades and your Super, and you're in business.
 
So we didnt get far at all in our hard mode run lol but I dont consider it a complete fail bc I learned a couple things going in that I didnt know beforehand. Just need to practice it a little more and it can be done. We experienced some crazy lag at times too which sucked :/

We didnt really have a plan for the first part but when the "templar summons its legions" you just jump to the outer areas where the snipers spawn during the boss fight right? Kinda figured that out.... Im guessing how those of you that beat the conflux portion beat it? Those Fnatics spawn quickly and the harpies have ridiculous amounts of health.

Those of you that joined I still had fun despite not making the progress we dreamed of lol and I hope you did too. Nice playing with you all.

Edit: Just started watching this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6UJvbi-eS0&feature=youtu.be and he syas in the first 10 seconds this is the hardest part of the raid lol
 
Guys, the grind to 29 is far too real. I'll be working on an alt Sunsinger. Any tips on a good build? I guess the revive perk and the extra grenade? How are you guys spec ing your sun bros?
 
Bought a cloak from the Speaker for 25 motes and I have #NoRagrets
*nod*

I might actually go for Transformers as opposed to Barnacle Face. However, the abilities are too good to pass up for Gunslinger.

That's the point? The extra elemental damage is insanely strong and if my fireteam were not playing cautiously (we don't want to got to orbit) I'm willing to bet some people could run Nightfalls faster than normal strikes. I guess it's more of a penalty or consequence to dying than a "mechanic" but I don't have an issue with Nightfall strikes.
 
Just received my 8th Exotic Bounty, literally all 8 times it has been the same 3 options of Invective, Bad Juju and Thorn. Holy shit game fucking please give me anything else for goddamn's sake.

I have the same problem, but with a different set of bounties. I'm convinced it's bugged.

This week's Nightfall took me 1/3 the time to duo with Wallach as the Weekly Strike with a full three. fun as hell too.

Arc burn (or solar, void) changes a lot, though. That's where the high bursr damage comes in, on top of having badass heavy and special weapons by then. It very much changes the feel of the fights, imho.
 
Eliminate griefing etc.

You cant steal someone elses loot anyway, I'm not sure what they were really afraid of by not putting it in. At least in other MMO's that was the only problem I ever had in raids(of course other annoyances like shitty players)

Yeah. I don't mind playing with people or adding people in the tower. Means I'll play with someone who won't jump ship on me etc.

totally agreed. tore valus a damn set of new ones with thunderlord. went back in with Plan C and bladedancer, stealth around phalanxes and one-shot them, or stick them with arc grenades from behind. feels good.
I'm good, Hawkian! Later this weekend.
ahhh, alright lemme know :)

Its laughable, the reason Bungie gave was the weekly/nightfall was too difficult and PUG's wouldnt work.

My friend and I duo the 26 weekly every week.
If we can duo it, surely 3 randoms could?

I even used the LFG site for the 26 weekly on my alt, got 2 other randoms and we finished it.
Instead of matchmaking in Destiny, I used an external site to literally matchmake with randoms, because Bungie wont do it for me.

Raids, I havent done yet. I wont say they should have MM for those. But there is no reason to not have MM for the weekly/nightfall.
 
Why are the Legendary Titan Marks from Vanguard/Crucible Marks Vendor so plain and boring (even compared to the Warlocks and Hunters)? Ended up spending some mote's on a Mark since I had 50.
 
Hey Destiny Gaf, I'm LFG for the level 28 weekly strike and or Nightfall on PS4. Anyone that still needs to get them in before the weekend or wants to help me get through it let me know. I would prefer ppl to be atleast lvl 27 or 28 and bring void and fire weapons!

I'll be on in about 15-20 mins, psn: Squadon.
 
well...regular legendaries take 6
raid: 7
exotic: 8
Whoa, this is accurate?

I'll help you with the Nightfall. Based on your lack of mentioning Arc weapons despite it being this week's burn I venture a guess that perhaps you need it! :D
