Hm? I just got the helmet this morning and it doesn't have that perk.

Oh your right. Mine doesn't have it either.

http://db.destinytracker.com/inventory/item/94883184

I was looking at that which is wrong...

 

[zewone]

Yeah, just zooms in on golden gun right? Sounds pretty useless, still using symbiote until I see a reason to upgrade it.

Yup.

It's too bad too, because I kind of dig the look of the helmet, but the perks are so lame.

 

[commish]

Is it true that dismantling new crota's raid gear gives ass mats instead of radiant? lol

That would be funny and make no sense.

 

[ocean]

Anyone up for Weekly/Nightfall?

 

[zewone]

Rolled a Devil You Don't with field scout, third eye, and outlaw. It's deliccccccccious!

That sounds awesome.

 

[MagnetoWasRight]

Still room for 3 to get the 2nd chest in Crota's end. Add PewPewPewBow.

Shoot, didn't know my boss was coming in. Do it without me.

 

[Coconut]

Yup.

It's too bad too, because I kind of dig the look of the helmet, but the perks are so lame.

the attunement and illumination bonuses sound pretty tight.

How much ammo does it hold now?

 

[bucyou55]

It feels wrong when i join a friends nightfall, arrive at phogoth and get an exotic..

 

[E92 M3]

Summoning Pits with Arc Burn. Woo!

Excellent - the lord shall be awakened.

Yup.

It's too bad too, because I kind of dig the look of the helmet, but the perks are so lame.

Hunters got the short end of the stick.

 

[PewPewPewBow]

You're there now? I'm trying to get on.

Still coming? you went offline.

Shoot, didn't know my boss was coming in. Do it without me.

Ah.

 

[Langy]

Anyone up for Weekly/Nightfall?

I'll do the weekly if you want to inv me and its on ps4. Add Langoit.

Micless at the min but shouldnt matter for this!

 

[Definity]

Do you need to go back to orbit for the first CE chest if it's not in the first room or can you just wipe and keep trying?

 

[ArkkAngel007]

Anyone up for Weekly/Nightfall?

I'm up for both. PSN-ArkkAngel007

Do you need to go back to orbit for the first CE chest if it's not in the first room or can you just wipe and keep trying?

Wipe will do just fine. First time it took me about 6-8 wipes.

 

[TP-DK]

Do you need to go back to orbit for the first CE chest if it's not in the first room or can you just wipe and keep trying?

You can wipe.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

So Iron Banner 3.0 gear only helps get you to 31 like vendor gear, right? And it's only gloves and boots again?

 

[Ambitious]

Do you need to go back to orbit for the first CE chest if it's not in the first room or can you just wipe and keep trying?

The latter. You can also try to get to the second room, but alone it's quite hard.

 

[Toejam2501]

Summoning Pits with Arc Burn. Woo!

Thanks

 

[Johan Liebert]

a friend got Hawkmoon from Crota. so Crota does give exotics.

 

[MagnetoWasRight]

How much ammo does it hold now?

13 rounds. Much better than Timur's Lash field scout going from 12 -> 13.

 

[noomi]

Awesome! That means, he can drop the gjallarhorn! *dance*

 

[Arthr2ShdsJcksn]

So the Iron Banner gear this time has a lower level than the new raid gear? WTF is that shit? Oh well, I guess I can safely ignore the IB this time.

 

[Deku Tree]

13 rounds. Much better than Timur's Lash field scout going from 12 -> 13.

Wow. It's perfect now!

 

[Phaethon0017]

PS4 Nightfall anyone? PSN: Phaethon.

 

[realcZk]

That would be funny and make no sense.

funny kind of like how the raid gear starts at under 30 light level too
anyhow, i heard it from someone when playing the raid so i wasn't sure, haven't been able to try it myself. the weapons definitely give radiant energy.

 

[Kadey]

Made it through the Crota second chest door in barely a hair.

 

[zewone]

IM EVEN MORE PUMPED FOR A CLEAR
IM BREATHING HEAVY AND SHAKING LIKE MACHO MAN RANDY SAVAGE

 

[HawksWinStanley]

I don't think two will manage to fly up there. Took me a couple of attempts to make it myself. What you could do is have one person just stay at the spawning point and have the other do everything.

Ah good call. Or is there a way the Sunsinger can just glide up there? Or is there an invisible ceiling if you try to go up manually?

 

[X-Frame]

So the Iron Banner gear this time has a lower level than the new raid gear? WTF is that shit? Oh well, I guess I can safely ignore the IB this time.

It wouldn't make sense for them to give them Level 32 gear at this point. Likely in a month or two, with an Iron Banner coming before House of Wolves will they again increase the Light for the armor to 32 to match raid gear.

I just want to know why they are selling the damn boots and gauntlets again and not the chest or helm.

 

[FloatingDivider]

Le sigh, upgraded sunbreakers from the nightfall and I kind of couldn't care less. I've already spent three months in those gauntlets

 

[GuitarAtomik]

Asked this yesterday but never got an answer: Does dismantling the Gloves you get from the Eris quest give you Ascendant or Radiant materials, or does it treat them the same way as QW and IB gear where they just give you armor mats?

 

[bucyou55]

Is pocket infinity worth the effort it feels like to watch the gunsmith for rare fusiin rifles?

 

[MADGAME]

The latter. You can also try to get to the second room, but alone it's quite hard.

Not that hard. You can see the orange light on top of the first door from the walkway. Run up to the first left and look left - is the orange light there? If yes, go get the chest. If no, kind of run toward it but diagonal right toward the second door. You can make it, you should be slowing down right as you get there. Clear out a few Thrall or use a super and grab the chest.

So you still have to grind commendations, of course

 

[PewPewPewBow]

Haven't tried it, but you can't jump very far with weight of darkness.

 

[Darknyss09]

Why hello there.



Fuck a Nightfall!

Wait, you get shards along with the exotic in that chest? That's some bullshit!

So far I am 4/4 on nothing but shards last week and this week.

At least this week it was up very first try both times.

 

[Hzoltan69]

Nightfall, anyone? PSN: Hzoltan969

 

[Hawkian]

13 rounds. Much better than Timur's Lash field scout going from 12 -> 13.

Field Scout as a weapon modifier does this: "change magazine size from whatever it starts at to the max possible for that weapon type." As a result, it's inherently more valuable a mod the lower the base magazine is for any given gun.

For hand cannons that max is 13.

edit: Also my Timur's Lash goes 7->13... weird.

 

[dB Viper]

Hunter will be 31 soon after being 28 for so long.

Got the GG helm from Xur, received the lvl 33 light Gauntlets from Eris after quests, have the level 30 raid chest and bought the lvl 33 vendor legs.

Both my Lock and Hunter will be 31 (my 3rd is a warlock alt, however I might delete and make a Titan).

 

[Darknyss09]

Yo, are we just doing Crota tonight or full clears?

 

[ReNeGaDe124]

Finally got the Hawkmoon. From the first chest in CE on my third character.

[Hawkian]

It's bugged right now. In its pre-bug form it was one of the best weapons in the game.

 

[LordofPwn]

Why hello there.
331Gjallarhorn.jpg
Fuck a Nightfall!

You should level that bad boy up for the raid tonight.

Speaking of Which

5. Grimlock33 lvl ??
6. Commish lvl ??

Alt 2. OPEN

 

[zewone]

One full clear and then 3 Crotas is the plan I believe.

 

[matmanx1]

Anyone looking to replace their old legendary hand cannon with a new 331 version should definitely go for The Chance from Future War Cult. It was previously awful as it had a 6-bullet clip but now it comes with Field Scout, which should bump it's clip to 13.

That and the fact that the other 2 vendor sold HCs are pretty awful, Devil You Dont having a clip of 5 combined with high fire rate and the Crucible one coming with only ammo saving perks make The Chance an easy choice.

Yeah I have been thinking about picking up a "The Chance" since neither Vanguard or Crucible QM's have great default HC's. I'm not hurting at the moment though since I have an upgraded Thorn that is almost maxed and I got a Another NITC (scount rifle) from a Cryptarch rank-up last night that is decent.

Yeah, I was confusing it with another hand cannon, don't remember which.

 

[Hawkian]

Asked this yesterday but never got an answer: Does dismantling the Gloves you get from the Eris quest give you Ascendant or Radiant materials, or does it treat them the same way as QW and IB gear where they just give you armor mats?

heard multiple confirmations that you get ascendant mats from them like you would from any vendor piece

Yeah, I was confusing it with another hand cannon, don't remember which.

yeah likely The Devil You Know or Lord High Fixer, Field Scout a nigh-useless roll on either one.

 

[MADGAME]

One full clear and then 3 Crotas is the plan I believe.

I thought we were doing a full clear, but transferring Crota checkpoints. After beating Crota 2 more times, we play Maze and Bridge up to second chest. That way we get 3 full clears while skipping Ir Yut twice. The Maze and Bridge portions are quick, no reason not to grab that sweet raid loot.

 

[MagnetoWasRight]

Still hoping for a raid group to form around 12:30 EST.

That works too.
