Guys,

I have a gauntlet, chest piece and Leggings (I have a fully upgraded exotic helm) which all have their last upgrade at first tiered (currently Light 23). If I upgrade the remaining six slots, would that take me from a low 28 to 29? It looks like I need a lot of Light to go but I do not see how this could be possible.

Thanks.

The real question is whether or not it will improve your jump skillz ;P
 
I got the Sunbreakers as a gift from leveling up Rahool again. So along with having two different Legendary helmets for a Warlock already, I guess that will be my next alternate.

I don't know where I'm getting all of this luck, but just got the final piece, the helmet, to make my raid set 5/5 from VoG hard mode.. That's in addition to the sparrow.

That's after a bunch of other stuff in the last few days. I'll post pictures later.

Yeah I've seen that, was wondering about the little Psion vermin. I've not seen them without a mask, was wondering if anyone else has.
 
Serious question, does anyone know if disenchanting legendary class armour i.e cloak gives ascendance shard?? they are the cheapest item to buy with marks for d/e
 
I'm at level 27 just about to hit 28. Last night I drunkenly calculated that i need at least 40 ass shards to upgrade my legendary armor fully. I only get one or two a day. I always max out my vanguard marks right away and do tons of that, I do the public events, the only thing I don't do is crucible. Am I missing out on a lot of shards there?

Is my best option to make new characters and use the level up bonuses to get them? And do public events on them too?

What is your vanguard rank? I am like lv2 dead orbit, lv2 crucible, and level3 vanguard. I feel like I have done a lot of bounties lol.

You're just being screwed by RNG. Best bet is probably public events and the daily heroics. You're guaranteed to get at least one of the ascendant materials from the heroic at level 24 difficulty, and 2 at 28. Public events have been usually giving me Energies, but yesterday they all of a sudden started dropping a Shard after each one. But again, as with all things RNG, your mileage may vary.

I'm level 3 Dead Orbit, level 2 Vanguard, and level 1 Crucible. I don't know if that matters though since I've heard multiple people here claim they've received bounties while only being Vanguard 1. I should be Crucible 2 soon though so maybe I'll keep note what happens then.

I don't think the rank matters, its more how often you turn in bounties for the RNG.

Ah. I usually knock out most of them every time I'm on. I've even cleared them a couple times. I think he system just doesn't like me :/

Same here, and Strange Coins. Best case scenario next to them turning into Legendaries.

I enjoy this game so much more by just gaining the currency to buy what I want and treat the engrams like a found lotto ticket: sometimes it's money, but most of the time it's just recyclable.

They say turning in multiple bounties at a time increases your odds. so like the first time i got an exotic bounty i turned in 4 bounties at a time, however the first time i turned in 5 bounties at a time i got a ship blueprint. i've since had 6 exotic bounties, some after turning in crucible or vanguard bounties, hell i think i had one pop after turning in a couple queen's bounties.

my stats:
372 Games
25,533 Kills
117 Hours 39 Minutes played
Queen rank 1
Vanguard rank 4
Crucible rank 3
New Monarchy rank 3
Dead Orbit rank 3
Future War Cult rank 1
Cryptarch rank 21
 
stupid question: what are all the do dads and spikes on the hunters amour? Sensors? I always figured the stuff on my titan was batteries or ammo, no idea what all this crap on my hunter is.
 
SomewhatGroovy said:
I appreciate it, Tyler. Forgot to mention I am stacked with nothing but Legendaries and Exotics. My b iggest hurdle is coming into Shards. The Raid and Dismantling have been my only sources for them.

One Gold Tier Public Event every day, maybe for three characters gives you another chance :)
 
GAF makes VoG Hard sound like walk in a park when almost everyone and their mothers is talking about full hard clears and all awesome hardmode loot they are getting. I want into that hardmode action too :<

I played over 5 days worth of time before I got my first exotic bounty which was on last Wednesday.

All I did was turn in one bounty and I got an exotic one. So it's purely random. But I did receive my second one for Pocket infinity yesterday.

I'm fairly confident it's entirely RNG. The only control you have is to do a ton of bounties.

I've gotten a lot of exotic bounties and just turned down one (did not want to do Bad JuJu AGAIN). I've just managed to finally get my pending bounties down to just one (Thorn..I need Xyor tonight!). Super Good Advice was my latest acquisition.

Truth be told it is heavily level dependent just like Normal. You have to be at least 29 and even then you will struggle with DPS.

I have yet to do a Hard mode raid because I can't think of a group who would take me. Most get it out of the way rather early in the week.

Hm. I've tried this a number of times too (I usually try to turn them all in at once to save trips) and no luck. I wonder if stopping to switch gear in between each bounty messes that up. I don't actually back completely out of the vendor to do it, but maybe that still counts as separate turn ins.

Maybe possible with five level 30's who have 300 attack weapons.

With four there's no way you could do phase 2 on Aetheon - one person, no matter how geared, will not be able to keep the portal open and kill Supplicants - they would get overwhelmed very quickly.

Forget hard mode with less than six people, maybe when everyone is level 32-34 with Super Exotics or something.

If you need help with Xyor I got you dude. Hopefully I can through it without dying for Invective haha.

I play level 29 warlock with both sub-classes maxed out and good weapons for every slot at 300 damage. With this resets group I did few test runs on hardmode, but couldn't even complete defence phase at first boss.

Granted few slackers were 28 when they promised to get 29 before these initial test runs so that gimped raid performance somewhat.

I'm hardmode ready when it comes to level and gear, but for now I just don't have group to clear it with.
 
Stealth vandals made daily 28 solo trickier than expected earlier, had to self-resurrect twice to make it through... erk.

Plus the chance of finding energy/shards at each event you participate in (although, for some reason, these seem to have completely dried up for me, but I see others finding them almost every event, except maybe less at Devil Walker for some reason).
 
I ran the Vault of Glass for the first time Saturday night. It was incredible. I can see why they don't have matchmaking, since most of the challenge comes from good co-operation rather than 1 shot kill enemies and bullet sponge enemies. Still makes me sad that the barrier for entry is so high that many many people will never see the best stuff in the game.

I did have a thought about Raid matchmaking. Maybe instead of individual matchmaking for the Raid, Bungie could matchmake two fireteams of 3. I think a great deal more people could get a group of 3 together much easier than 6. And there's a much higher likelihood you can vouch for the people of your fireteam that you wouldn't have to worry about AFKers or people who drop early.
 
Anybody getting a group together for the raid this evening? I still haven't done it and would like to get this week's loot if possible. I'm free starting around 6pm CDT.

I also need a couple people to run the weekly heroic with tonight.

I ran last night with some GAF'ers and we couldn't make it past Atheon. Even then, the experience was quite good and I'm looking forward to giving it another go.
