RNG strikes again.

"How did you get your Monte Carlo?"

"I dunno, I was eating pizza and came back and I had it in my inventory."

My friend got his Monte Carlo from a PvP match after going ape shit in the match and saying he wants an exotic and was tired of RNG.

The gun is the Regime, Suros is the manufacturer. :p

Suros isn't the manufacturer. Tower gunsmiths found the blueprints for the gun and made a limited amount of them due to not having enough smart matter to mass produce the gun. Every suros regime you see are pretty much brand new guns fresh off the assembly line. At least I think so. I may be wrong.
 
Nightfall gave me Mask of the Third man, my very first RNG exotic. So pretty happy about that.

Iron banner sucked hard. No idea what the hell was going on. 4 hits of arc blade couldn't kill players. 2 shotgun blasts to the face couldn't kill players. Lev 23 with blues one shotting me (I'm 29 with maxed out weapons).

What should have been:

A should be down the ramp from it's current location.
B should be outside on the mid level
C should be in the basement of the primary building.
yes, this is better.

Bladedancer not getting Insta-kills? Hohoho

I have Shadow of Mordor installed now. Want to play a lot of it tonight but I also want at least my Nightfall complete and to get my Warlock to 20. lol.

Great questions! Here's my general advice.
  • First thing you need to do is stop thinking about it in terms of "choosing" Bladedancer or Gunslinger. Finish maxing out Gunslinger. It's useful in PvE when you're forced to fight from distance, when there's a Solar Burn (Golden Gun will wreck this week's Nightfall), for one-shotting Oracles in the raid (you'll know what this means when the time comes), and for taking out other specific non-boss targets. Bladedancer's Arc Blade is great for clearing trash mobs (adds), but useless when Lightswitch modifier is active and against bosses. However, the stealth from Stalker is invaluable in Strikes (especially Nightfalls) for stealth resurrection and ammo runs, and the Arc grenade is fantastic during Arc burns. You'll want to switch subclass frequently as the situation demands to contribute to your fireteam, and especially for solo play (skipping huge chunks of strikes via stealth, taking out easy targets from afar with GG, etc.) this is critical.
  • Super Good Advice isn't that great for the moment, but Lucky Raspberry is a great first exotic to build around. It does compliment SGA, but I think a better build would involve a great exotic/legendary Fusion Rifle to take advantage of its upgrades. Plan C would be the obvious choice, the resulting build an Arc powerhouse; make sure to equip Arcbolt grenades when on Bladedancer for the full effect. Do you have any other exotic bounties? What legendary weapons have you got so far?
  • You may be able to find a raid group doing, for example, and hour a night over the course of a week rather than 4 hours a night. There are a number of checkpoints.
  • For solo play, an exotic primary of your favored weapon type will make a huge difference.
If you have any questions, feel free to reply or PM!

Thanks so much for the suggestions. I've got the Multi-Tool exotic scout rifle too but not fully upgraded because it seemed junky. I'll work on gunslinger and Multi tool and making complimentary build for both classes.

I fully support this. Having a super hard time getting a group of people on 360 to do the Raid. Going into Iron Banner mostly solo would be ridiculously painful and grindy, but at least doable. Give people who do the Raid awesome cosmetic stuff or something, but gatekeeping a character Level behind full Raid gear sucks for everyone not doing Raids.



You are very fortunate that Blizzard EU apparently has their shit together. US Blizzard maintenance times start at I think 5 am PST which is 8am EST :/

That's whack.....though not the worst. At least it's 8 in the morning at not 4 in the afternoon :p


For all the crap stuff we have over here, gaming companies seem to have their shit pretty together. Nintendo EU/UK are great, Blizzard EU are great, Sony does good stuff here.....


....but it was me who came up with it...

err....err....Nami's one or nothing! *runs away*

Where's that map from? As a Bad Kid with virtually no sense of direction, I miss being able to learn maps through empty customs or overhead views.

Regarding the MIDA Multi-Tool: don't bother maxing it out yet. I have and it's pretty meh overall. AR/pulse/handcannons beat it.

I'm not :( I'm ok with being out played but not out gunned which is what it comes down to. I feel like I'm using a pee shooter. I'll out play some one start unloading and...instant killed no matter the range

There seems to be an issue with net-code (or whatever) where hits won't register on time. For example I shotgunned a warlock twice, then punched them, then they proceed to melee me and get an insta-kill, finally AFTER I revive I get the notification that I got the kill.

So I imagine this person just randomly fell over after having killed me. 10/10 would PVP again.

Anytime! I'm loving theorycrafting in this game despite it being very early so I'm more than happy to answer any questions.

Make sure to have Gunslinger selected when turning in Bounties for all the XP.
Suros isn't the manufacturer. Tower gunsmiths found the blueprints for the gun and made a limited amount of them due to not having enough smart matter to mass produce the gun. Every suros regime you see are pretty much brand new guns fresh off the assembly line. At least I think so. I may be wrong.
SUROS is certainly the manufacturer by my reckoning. Other guns they've made:
ADM-40
MKB-51
Black Suros ORX-11
Painted Suros CGB-47

I consider the Regime their "flagship" weapon using a more premium construction and what have you.
