Was the team all Warlocks then?



I would, but I want to see the final form for my shotgun. And extra shell perhaps?

I have a feeling it will be an ornament for the shotgun. Nothing more.

That would be disappointing.....

 

[IKizzLE]

O boi...the prestige raid forces everyone to know every role. Already stuck on the gauntlets because there are guys who have never been a runner.

 

[Orochinagis]

So prestige is like TTK raid without a reroll item. eeeewwww

I have a feeling it will be an ornament for the shotgun. Nothing more.

Well, the shotgun indeed have a slot for a skin....

 

[xChildOfHatex]

Just completed the glitchiest raid I've ever played. Dogs saw people directly behind them and behind walls, the orbs in gauntlets were lagging, the middle orb in baths wasn't spawning and I kept getting booped in shadow realm while taking a path I always take. Twice, a psion spawned in the middle of his grenade animation and even Calus stayed standing after we killed him. I was barely getting heavy ammo throughout the raid.

 

[Trakan]

I haven't seen anyone beat Calus yet but it sure seems like an awful lot of extra work for no reward so far.

It's a white ornament apparently according to the equipment leaks/whatever. Unless there is something undiscovered.

Eventually they'll figure out that runner is the easier role.

What, tokens for non prestige gear, an ornament and emblem aren't enough for you? Do you want actual gear drops and perhaps extra perks for doing the prestige raid? Come on now, we can't have that.

 

[zewone]

At least I should only have to do prestige raid once.

[Cornbread78]

I could probably do that. If we can find someone. I've done dogs once, didn't beat it, but I get the idea. Didn't get past that.

If you still need one on Friday and can't find anyone, I could probably help. I've run the Raid about 5 times now, have a pretty good handle on things. Is everyone that's going to be in it around 275-280+?

That would be awesome!

So far The Friday night (PS4) Newb Raid (10pm EST) looks like:


Sherpa:
- CarbonFire
-

Newbs:
- Griffy-
- Deadly Cyclone
- Mairu

.....god dammit

 

[DrROBschiz]

Prestige raid DOES NOT seem worth the trouble at all

Why Bungie

Whats the point

 

[Jest Chillin]

I haven't seen anyone beat Calus yet but it sure seems like an awful lot of extra work for no reward so far.

It's been beat by at least 2 teams already.

 

[Cornbread78]

I mean, but would it have helped you anyway?

 

[zewone]

It's been beat by at least 2 teams already.

What did they earn?

 

[Pandora012]

What did they earn?

Bet it was just tokens.

 

[Jest Chillin]

What did they earn?

Spoiler

Aside from prestige color armor, shaders, tokens, the ornament for the Acrius.

 

[Solidsnakejej]

What did they earn?

Spoiler

Emblem, gold styled armour, and ornament for the shotgun.

The gold armor is dropped in the raid not through packages, so good luck getting a full set of that.

 

[WeTeHa]

If that is really everything... that is some bullshit right there.

 

[Jest Chillin]

If that is really everything... that is some bullshit right there.

Hard to say given drop rates. Could be other stuff that just didn't drop.

 

[Trakan]

I guessing they couldn't be bothered to make the prestige raid sets different, like restorative/mobility/resilience?

 

[Pandora012]

Bullshit....that's just crazy. So they give you tokens you can only use on the old armor.....

 

[ch4fx_]

This gives me hope!

When are you free to run this? I'm on at night, central time zone. If that lines up, I'll be happy to run it with you this week.

 

[Llyrwenne]

Finally got all three classes to 305. I got the fashion game and gear locked in on my Warlock and Titan.

On Warlock I run Merciless for Strikes / Raid / Nightfall and Wardcliff Coil for Crucible / Patrol. Lunefaction Boots are actually quite useful in Crucible too; you can step back from a firefight, pop a healing rift and then immediately get back in with a reloaded weapon and full health. On Titan I switch out Sweet Business for Origin Story and Uriel's Gift for The Last Hope for Crucible. On Titan I run 2x Grenade Cooldown mod and 2x Kinetic Reload mod.

Both are at 2 Mob / 4 Res / 8 Rec

Waiting to try the Mannannananannanabatmaaaaan and the Antiope-D before I finalize my Hunter.

 

[Cornbread78]

I'm at job 1 now and got job 2 later, ut my buddy wants to try it at around 11:30 est. Tonight. I'll be on my Vita, but it should be doable..... hopefully!

 

[BreezyLimbo]

My group beat the Gauntlet and we all got shaders/tokens and not a single weapon drop. You should have heard the depressing sighs echoing throughout the party chat.

They want you to feel that Vault of Glass nostalgia

 

[Orochinagis]

Spoiler

So no shotgun upgrade? jeeeeeeeeez

 

[Cornbread78]

First D2 nerf?

 

[Deku Tree]

Hopefully challenge mod gives a guaranteed extra drop.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Haha
ha

If this is for xb1, I would like to join you if you’ll have me. I’ve got a 302 hunter and a 290 something warlock. Have done dogs, pools, and have attempted the gauntlet section( not as a runner).

 

[LiK]

Hopefully challenge mod gives a guaranteed extra drop.

An extra token.

 

[Olengie]

The extra drop will be an extra drop of disappoint

Spoiler

can't we just do Castellum? lol.

Sorry, think this is PS4. Unless it is Xbox, in which case I can't do it xD

That's impressive you've got your PL so high without finishing the Raid.

 

[MomoPufflet]

When are you free to run this? I'm on at night, central time zone. If that lines up, I'll be happy to run it with you this week.

I actually may hit you up for a run this week too if you don't mind :X

Trying to get the dumb trophy and it seems abnormally easy this week.

 

[Acorn]

If that's the quest reward that's super lame.

 

[ch4fx_]

I'm at job 1 now and got job 2 later

Dude........ I. FEEL. YOU. Same schedule over here & can confirm that it blows.

my buddy wants to try it at around 11:30 est. Tonight. I'll be on my Vita, but it should be doable..... hopefully!

If for some reason you don't get it done, shoot me a friend request, PSN/GAF are the same.

Not at all dude, always happy to help. Shoot me a message when you're free, I'll grab Tacoz & we will smash our way through it.

 

[BLCKATK]

Not in a rush to do Prestige but it sounds like a decent challenge. I like that.

Definitely seems like the rewards are more like trophies and less like equipment though. And it's got a hefty grind to it. I know I'm not really interested in the rewards (emblems are good enough for me) so I wonder what will keep people coming back to the raid, or have they just planned for it to be phased out of progression by DLC 1.

 

[EloquentM]

Fucking hell bungie.

 

[Irishonion]

Ah, so it is true, fashion is the true end game.

 

[LiK]

If that's the quest reward that's super lame.

I wouldn't put it past them. Everything you get in Prestige is basically cosmetic.

 

[sturgboski]

Yeah if I can't get the prestige raid done tonight/tomorrow I would be down to do the prestige NF.

 

[BLU-82]

Caught Slayerage completing the quest on his stream:

Spoiler

Yes it's just the ornament. No further gun improvements.

 

[JHall]

Canceled my PC pre-order. End game isn't worth it.

Unfortunately, this is for PS4. Have you tried the Xbox Discord?

I'll probably hit you up around that time, lol. I just sent you a FR from the mobile app.

Just, same here. I just want the damn trophy. That way I only have alts and Trials left...

 

[Hawkian]

Here is the roster for tonight's newbie raid, 8PM EST.

1. Childofhate
2. RPG
3. Optimus
4. Optimus +1
5. Rasengan
6. Me

If anyone cannot make it, please shoot me a PM asap.

 

[Acorn]

Remember when raid gear had cool perks and was among the best in the game including exotics?


Come to think of it remember when exotics had unique interesting perks and were powerful as hell? Pretty much only riskrunner and maybe sunshot has interesting gimmicks in d2.

 

[Olengie]

Ah, so it is true, fashion is the true end game.

I want more choices for Dresstiny
