I cannot WAIT to fully level my Thorn now. Good stuff.

 

[GalacticToast]

Now that they've also taken out getting a package for the 1st public event of the day

Wait, seriously? That sucks.

 

[Johan Liebert]

where is my special emblem for doing a flawless raid of the vault of glitches

 

[Chamber]

Wait, seriously? That sucks.

Yeah, I noticed this earlier. Bungie still gonna Bungie.

 

[LordofPwn]

well hopefully the 0/1/2 people being teleported is fixed as of this patch, so those strategies may be moot. they mentioned it but not sure if anyone's tested yet.

read the tips more carefully.

Don't what?

don't die from fall damage :lol

More specifically don't die on the way down from the spirit bloom chest.

Pwn, I updated the link in the OP for that.

I keep forgetting but if someone will link me to the flawless raider signup spreadsheet thing I can include that too

i would date this patch

Thanks! i was about to ask, but you are already on it.

 

[xplicitone]

Wait, seriously? That sucks.

Not sure if it was done by accident or not, but multiple people have said they have not gotten packages today with main or alts

 

[X-Frame]

So a new piece of exotic armor or weapon only requires 1 exotic shard and the rest is just mats, glimmer and/or class armor material?

 

[TheOMan]

why this is quite a good day

I had 2 out of 3 titan helms (Insurmountable Skullfort and Helm of Saint-14) and 2 helm engrams, I popped one open on my Warlock (hoping for a legendary helm for him) and got

then popped the other one and got a legendary helm for him.

Where did you pick up the Skullfort? That's the only one I need.

 

[Matchew]

Watching a stream and the guy is using the Pocket Infinity and it charges wayyyy fast looks crazy good.

Yes

 

[The Lamonster]

What does everyone hope for the future?
-Increased Vault Space
-Increased cap on Marks now that they are more useful
-Better Strike playlists and better rewards for them
-RNG system that can review your previous drops to reduce dups
-Better customizing of colours for individual armour pieces
-Change your Guardians appearance

DISABLE. CRUCIBLE. ANNOUNCER.

 

[Katana_Strikes]

What the hell happened to the Suros' sound?

 

[grimlock33]

Anyone still needing to complete the Weekly Strike? Me and my Ice Breaker are about ready to finish of Phogoth. Have room for 2 right now. PSN is grimlock33

EDIT: Full

 

[Spectromixer]

Is there any word on if the Legendaries and Exotics are getting an extra upgrade slot when the DLC comes?

 

[Deku Tree]

What the hell happened to the Suros' sound?

It changed.

 

[Johan Liebert]

More specifically don't die on the way down from the spirit bloom chest.

What about getting stuck in the geometry?

 

[shem935]

Is there anyway to level exotics without requiring an Exotic shard? If not I'm gonna be sitting on 8+ exotics I can't max while have ass mats out the ass for a couple weeks :/

 

[Orthogonal]

Missed in all the craziness is that Bungie effectively increased the cost of purchasing Exotics by 7 coins with the new Exotic Shard. Now 24 coins for special/heavy and 30 coins for a primary.

7 coins vs 18 Ass Mats is a decent trade off I guess.

FR sent!

 

[Daemul]

9b.) After killing Templar take a breather and prepare to descend the spirit bloom path. just be careful and don't pull a fig.

I really need to stop reading this wrong way and missing the "a" in the sentence v.v

Yes, at least disable him for the annoying "You've gained the lead" bullshit

I have one more spot for a weekly. PSN: Wretched_Walrus

 

[Victory Red]

The only thing that needs the Exotic Shard is the last upgrade.

 

[void666]

Hey guys, remember when we used to run around in circles looking for chests? Silly huh?
Just bought 200 helium and 200 iron. Sooooo good.

Did the daily with my fully upgraded vex mytho. It melts everything. I love it.
And i never ran out of ammo. That's new to me. Maybe because i was killing enemies faster.

Now it's time to try bad juju and thorn right after.

 

[Pickman]

You can just buy the shards with strange coins. 7 coins for a shard. I average 15-20 a week between playing and doing my weekly.

Just added you!

 

[realcZk]

read the tips more carefully.

hey, i was being pretty careful! i put my saftey-scissors down and put the cap back on the glue and everything. was just saying it would be nice if they were in fact fixed in the patch, then we wouldn't have to worry about them, but i see why you kept them in the post of course.

 

[ComputerMKII]

wrong thread

 

[Sword Of Doom]

What about getting stuck in the geometry?

Lol i had no idea that was on youtube. Can't believe that happened to me

 

[names2hard4you]

The game changed for the better. Now I actually have to think about which gun to use, they are all so awesome. My Monte Carlo doesn't feel crappy anymore, and the Bad Juju is a beast...

 

[TheOMan]

Considering the hell it was to get Thorn, every player with it deserves the buff it got.

Exactly.

 

[EL CUCO]

Damn so no more public event package? Has anyone checked to see if the completing the event itself still gives the estimated 5kXP that the packages would give?

 

[ObiDin]

I'm curious, is there an actual lore(I know, lol) reason for only being able to equip one exotic weapon/armor at a time or is it purely just for game balance issues?

 

[hydruxo]

Heading home from work in 20 minutes!!!

Looking forward to getting my Warlock to 30 with the new mat economy and having 3 level 30 characters ready to go for The Dark Below!

Anyone here looking to do the Crucible/Void part of the Thorn bounty with me sometime this evening?

I'd be down man, I still need to finish the Thorn bounty myself. We could prob get a full fireteam of gaffers going and just knock it out in 5-6 matches.

 

[shem935]

The only thing that needs the Exotic Shard is the last upgrade.

Yeah one per weapon equals 63 strange coins. Or 9 extra exotic weapons or armor I don't want. And with my current rate of drops means in 9 weeks I will have the shards necessary.

 

[zewone]

Do get the ass material on the spot now instead of by chance as before?

How much of your super bar is filled on a kill?

 

[darkwing]

Getting that stupid green blurry vision from Thorn is worst than being poisoned. Bungie needs to tone that down.

my precious........

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I was trying to free up vault space and ended up deleting a couple of Thunderlords, sun breakers and plan C's. I should have waited

 

[Xamtheking]

How big is the patch?

 

[scarletham]

ambitious

if you did that I'd be insanely impressed and also annoyed at how long it took me

 

[Twilight Gap]

How big is the patch?

2.44 gb on my screen

:/

 

[SlenderBeans]

Is it finally time to pull Bad Juju and Thorn out of my vault?

 

[shem935]

Yeah me too :/ Dismantled like 3 exotics last week I had dupes of. Gah!

 

[names2hard4you]

Still haven't gotten there on the skill tree. But from what my friend is saying, it goes up bit by bit as you kill things, and it is quite noticeable. I am hype.

 

[darkwing]

Is it finally time to pull Bad Juju and Thorn out of my vault?

YES

 

[Korten]

Really hyped about this new patch. Bungie dun good.

Sucks I can't get on and test it out for a couple of more hours.

 

[Twilight Gap]

did they actually buff plan C?

:|

Man you weren't kidding, he had less than 5%. Thank you so so much, my lvl 25 Hunter wouldn't be able to do it this week.

 

[EL CUCO]

Good question. Maybe we still get rewarded, only not in the form of a post master package.

I mainly used the first one for the XP.

Looks like my older packages are still at the Post Master.
