The raid keeps giving same crappy rewards. Yesterday the hard raid didn't give one exclusive rewards. Instead iracles gave 2 chests and then templar another FV plus shards. Fatebringer is elusive. I noticed I only get weapons I don't want lol. When I got the Vex, I didn't care one bit for it.

It's a very traditional MMO approach - in other games with more armour slots, it's the head, chest and legs that have the highest value and are hardest to get. Generally because they have higher stats and are the most 'visible' piece of your armour set.
It's clearly meant to be a prestige thing in destiny, but Xur selling exotic helmets completely short circuits that, and the way you level up just makes it a really dumb approach overall as you are locked out of one slot to get to the max level you want to be for doing the content that gives you that slot...
It's another one of those things (like some form of tokens for raiding) that I hope they address in the expansion, but dread that they won't.
Play control. Equip all void weapons (particularily void heavy machine gun). And if you have any void nades, equip them. Try not to be in front line first in control areas, just take it a bit more safe than usual.
Wait for that heavy ammo and be there when it appears. Go there early enough. When on heavy ammo, try again not to charge with your machine gun but try to stay alive as long as you have ammo. Its so op that its mindless.
With this type of play you should get avg 50/game easily.

Thanks. I guess I'm playing it wrong, just running and gunning. I need to hold back, which isn't my normal play style. Patience is key

I either go with melee/flashbang build with transfusion. Transfusion now activates on shoulder charge. Spec the immediate chance for melee cooldown too, but super energy on melee kill is nice too. I just use Inmost Light with this one, but I guess Insurmountable Skull would be a better one. Throw a flashbang and then storm into the room, shoulder charge the first one in there then use combination of melee and shotty to clean up the rest. Go for a fast-firing one like Invective or the crucible shotgun. Knowing the timing and reach of shoulder charge is key.
Or I go for lightning grenades, pulse charge on super and increased pulse/lightning duration. Wear Armamentarium and you can shut down two entries to an area this way. Great control build. I have more success with the latter, but really dig the in your face style of my flashbang/melee/shotgun build.
Thanks.
The first set up us pretty much what I'm using now except Armamentarium for dual grenades. Flitting between FR and shotgun, but I think shotguns suit it more.
Will switch to lightning for control.
How do you handle shoulder charge. I tend to walk until I see a blip then start the sprint.
Thank you, Dead Orbit.
100 points off my next package. It's going to be Revenant. 100%. No questions.

i'm sure that "chat" is a common thing in most online community game threads
and hey, Halo OT's still don't count as they cover several games! Let's compare numbers when we are playing Destiny 4!

What is this?
Did you read the new OP? It's a weak response IMO.
The red dot in helmet beraks the harmony of the colouring scheme
.salty Halo fan worried that Destiny will surpass Halo in OTs.

And Halo threads aren't? Last time I checked there was still an AR vs BR vs DMR discussion going on.
Who gives a fuck? Get a grip.

Meh, thunder devil is better.
Biggest disappointment of the year catching up with the best console fps series of all time?
What a crazy world we live in.

Please will someone skirmish with me? This bounty with randoms is like forcing tiny slivers of glass in between my teeth and gargling vinegar.

3 nightfalls last night was a piece of cake. Partner had fatebringer to pop knight shields while I Atheon's Epilogue'd them down.

Voidfang Vestments (which I didn't have)
Ass Shards
Legendary Special Engram.... turned into Wizard 77

Actually just did this last night. Rumble with the 77 Wizard is an extremely easy way to get it done. Took no more than 1.5 hours.
And it also made me appreciate the 77 a whole lot more. Not a bad gun at all.
Lol - Halo as "a lot" going on. What was the point of your post though?

LOL at dat OT.
Ahh the smell of a new thread. I haven't been able to play for past few days because of school. The withdrawal is beginning to take over :S

Probably not gonna happen this week. It'd be awesome if we got a Xur Black Friday deal to make for that though Bungie!
not going to happen at the rate Bungie has been doing
Xûr should sell all weapons, but you can only pick one.

It looks better with a different cloak like the Starwinder but it does look best on a Warlock.
Here it is on Titan (looks mismatched because I'm missing raid boots)

Ah, that new thread smell.
both
Let me ask you about the DLC Crucible maps. How are they going to decide who has access to them? If you are on a fire team with someone who doesn't have the DLC but you are the fire team leader and you do have the DLC can you play on the DLC maps?
Or do you have to have a full fire team of people who own the DLC in order to be able to play on the DLC maps?
What about the next Iron Banner? Is it going to include the DLC maps?

Probably both. But the VoG loot is going to seem like the old and weak loot by then... Did you see that all the new legendaries and exotics start with higher attack values?
EDIT: sry for the double post.
