Destiny 2 |OT| Here We Go Again

I've cleared all the maps of icons and completed all my assigned milestones. The only thing I would consider farming was the 2 hours of crucible playlist I had to clear last night to get the powerful loot reward milestone Shaxx sets you once you've done 2 matches of regular and competitive.

Everything else was jumping in to every public event I could as I was doing other stuff, and when I figured out how to make them heroic, always doing that. I have a emblem that tracks heroic events and it says I've done 32 - not counting the regular ones I was doing earlier.

Excellent! My plan is after I finish the campaign (got three missions to go, I think), I'm going to move on to: patrols (those that seem interesting), adventures, strikes, lost sectors, public events when I run across them, and some Crucible here and there. I don't have a firm grasp of what milestones and flashpoints are, but I assume that comes after the campaign.

Milestones are just an indicator you get by pressing L2 on the planet map, it's a list of things it recommends you doing to get good rewards!

I also forgot I haven't cleared all the lost sectors yet. I still have some to do on Io!
 
Aesthetically I'm pretty pleased. I haven't found an exotic for the hunter besides a crappy helmet and the ahamkara gloves.

What cape is that Hunter wearing?
 
Campaign complete - Now onto the good stuff! (Not to say the campaign wasn't also good :D) Managed to not get side tracked with anything else!

I thought post-campaign would be dry and boring, but there are a surprising amount of extra missions, especially the exotic gear quests.
 
My Titan just passed my Hunter (281 PL) by a smidgen at almost 282 PL yet playtime is probably 80% Hunter and 20% Titan. Still have the Nightfall to do on the Titan.

Is the Gunsmith not offering Legendary Arm Mods or do I just not have the right ingredients (blue mods) thus they aren't available?
 
Can anyone recommend any good Dualshock 4 analog extenders that DON'T have the right stick higher than the left?

Just the same for both? All the KontrolFreaks I see have the right one longer unless I am missing some.
 
The story was definitely better this time around, but definitely not great either. Some of the "drama" beats fell flat, and their attempts at humor were kinda lame. A lot of kind of lackluster moments were definitely lifted up by the incredible score though. All in all, I enjoyed the game.
 
man i really hate the new shader system, it being consumables. i feel like i don't even want to waste my time with them because the armor i have on my character is constantly being replaced. i feel like i won't even use them until i have my characters power maxed out and raid armored.

unless when you put a shader on an armor type it stays on the armor type regardless of getting new armor? but i doubt it.
 
RNG at it again. Cayde: Helmet, Call to Arms: helmet, Shaxx rank up: Helmet. Engrams: helmet or gauntlets.

I am still rocking a blue chest piece at 260 because I've never seen a legendary beyond this light level. Same for boots, I run Peacekeepers because its above 260.

Okay the game is not even a week old and i'm complaining about not ranking up lol. I like what they generally did though. I've only had one dupe Exotic drop so far, the fucking Coldheart.

Know it's been asked a few times, but what PL should I be saving the Powerful Engrams for? I'm at 259.

265. You're nearly there.
 
Found area, where the public event with the big servitor appears, he spawns like 4-5 of the smaller ones.

Did not enjoy finding the 10 dusklight shards.

That was pretty okay but I can't find these Servitors for my life. Where's the public event? Also, do they really not spawn...?
 
i have an exotic Gauntlets 280 and a legendary Gauntlets 276, what will happen if i infused the legendary to the exotic ?? will the exotic increase even though the legendary is lower ?
 
I have 45 minutes spare to play and I'm getting the 'chicken' error whilst trying to log in...

Is it just a game of persistence?

You can't infuse something equal to or lower than another piece of gear
 
well shit. What are the chances of Bungie ever giving us more character slots? lmao.
Seeing how quick it is to power lvl to 20, o won't be surprised if people have 3 of the same character and delete 2 of their alts weekly just to redo the weekly milestones.

People did it in destiny 1 when the loot cave was active. Now we have the double xp consumable and heroic public events.
 
My biggest problem with the game was the story.

I've always wanted Destiny to make me feel something like Star Wars.

Instead it's like a Marvel movie. Fun but ultimately forgettable with a throwaway villain.

That pretty much sounds like any Star Wars made in the last 33 years or so... I rate D2's story of any in that time frame (and probably over Return of the Jedi too, perhaps).

Loved it and Failsafe rules!
