[GraveRobberX]

Had 2 great Hard Raid VoG runs

Atheon blessed me with this:

Went with same team on my Titan, Atheon blessed me again:

5th Vex Mytho, 4th Patience & Time

Stockpile now getting onto absurd levels:

Just got Hunter to run through, then I'll be good, get to work on my exotic bounties and get them to the final step
See if I trade them in after TDB comes out if they get the attack boost

You're reading between the lines, or taking your own interpretation of that line a bit too far. By less time they mean less material grinding. If it would have been less XP, Deej sure as hell would've highlighted that fact to hell and back.

Bungie seems to have a habit of not being clear(Iron Banner 1.0, I'm looking at you)
You might be right, though

 

[rNilla]

I'd love to run a Normal raid tonight but not sure when I'll be available.

 

[MandrakeUK]

I'm in too! PSN id is the same as it is on here (28 Titan).

"less time" is kinda vague. I'm sure it's less time without collecting ass materials but if the bubbles take just as long to fill up then it means nothing for me.

We should have waited with finishing that Thorn bounty dude

Best to just assume worst-case-scenario. Stocked up on handcannon telemetries again today and machine gun for my Thunderlord. Thankfully I already have 20 for rocket launchers.

Awesome, thanks for the great responses!

Boguester, Check out the planet destiny db, here's a hawkmoon link as an example:
http://db.planetdestiny.com/items/view/3164616407

It's going to show you XP numbers, so you can see with 145k you'll fill the exotic perk bubble (requires 135k) and with telemetry you should go over that (175k ish)?

How many strage coins to you make each week? Do you ever spend them?

12 weeks of Destiny time 27 coins is only = 324 coins and you have 249... You must also get a lot from engrams etc.

well, apparently some dude who worked for gamespot said that a rep told him that we could (so take that with a grain of salt)

thats all the "confirmation" ive seen so far

ugh... Urk if you're watching could you just give us a simple yes/no. takes like 5 seconds...

I nearly got to the exotic perk, but basicly stopped earlier this week. Barely touched Destiny this week aside from Nightfalls & Weeklies.

Thank god. While they're at it they should add those two to Xur's loottable on PS4.

Fuck it, what's another $21 towards a DLC (PSN gave me $15) for a game I will probably keep playing until next year's games come around

 

[Mindlog]

It could be straight up less time (xp) to upgrade new old exotics. The fact that every other part of the game now has a new form of gating doesn't mean that they're introducing artificial grind to stretch out new old content. I'll wait until we get specifics....

"more powerful"

sorry, they might need another meeting before being able to clarify that.

1 month to decide.
1 month to execute.
1 month to reveal through exclusive third party interview.

Couldn't they just have implemented the same system they had for Iron Banner. you go to Xur with your equipped exotics (actually equipped) and you can upgrade them and only them. then equip a new exotic and repeat the process? I would have thought this would have been easier.

Also still need people for a hard raid tonight 8:15pm PST please join. it's a toast to the Vault of Glass.

[PrivateWHudson]

When did Xur stop selling exotic engrams? My kids started saving up motes of light for the last couple of weeks and were so excited to get their first exotic piece of armor when they got home from school today. WTF Bungie. Such disappointment in the house right now.

"Xur can offer the Sony exclusive exotics for upgrade, yes."

You realize that is precisely literally a statement that can't be disproven. Xur "can"... doesn't mean Xur ever "will" "offer the Sony exclusive exotics for upgrade"...

I am only saying this because I don't consider this tweet to be final confirmation.

Bungie couldn't be bothered to code the PS exclusive map into the PS version of IB so...

[X-Frame]

Gatekeeper portal question:

Can you kill all the adds in either Gatekeeper portal and then no more will spawn after the Gatekeeper is dead or do more adds continually spawn?

I can't seem to remember.

Sweet there is still room! I haven't drank in awhile so it may or may not end well but this sounds fun. 30 whatever but will likely bring my Hunter. I am PST and get home by 7PM.

PSN: coyquettish

 

[spyder_ur]

If anyone is looking for buds to team up for a normal raid tonight, I'd be interested in something in the 7pm eastern range, give or take.

30 Titan on PSN (same as GAF name)

I'd be down on my 29 Warlock if it was closer to 7:30 - if you're set on 7 and/or it's filled up that's fine too.

 

[Taz]

If anyone is bored and would like to run me through the weekly Heroic strike I'd much appreciate it

Dude< i know Mandrake and Im sure he didnt intentionally overlook you....Ill run one with you later this evening if you want.

Edit :Also have 29 hunter on Templar and 30 Titan on gatekeeper. HM.

[Dave_6]

What's the absolute lowest I can be to get thru the normal raid? A 26 I'm guessing? My Warlock is a 25 3/4 or so lol.

Anyone want to help carry me thru the 26 weekly?

 

[Greenymac]

It's fine I'm just being salty.

Then dont be salty and take me up on my offer. I havent even DONE a normal raid in a month, but Id run one with you to help out...Greenymac is my PSN. Im just making an offer man. If not Ill play some crucible. All on you man!

 

[Frenden]

I'm glad I waited to try and complete the Thorn bounty. At least I might have one exotic to use without needing to re-dump mats, glimmer, shards, and time.

My dad is in town visiting tonight and I'm not sure when he's going to crash. If the family stuff wraps up by then I can definitely hop on but I can't say for sure now.

 

[The Driver]

All this exotic reset crap is depressing and I only really feel the need to upgrade my TLW/IB and Helm of Innermost Light. Can't imagine y'all that have freaking armories of maxed stuff.

 

[Kadey]

I'm just going to be exotic shards for my Thunderlord and Horn. The others can wait.

Will still do Atheon raids for stuff.

If they're saying he can that means he can and he eventually will. Your concern applies to all weapons since we don't know when Xur will have the upgrade for any specific weapon. For me it's great news that I will be able to upgrade my hawkmoon when Xur has the upgrade. The actual upgrade grind itself is another matter
