30 -> 31 -> 32 +7 shards -> 33 +7 shards -> 34 +7 shards -> 36
Excellent, so 7 shards per piece to make it 33 light.
So raid gear gets to 32 light before the final 3 upgrades. Aw yiss.
Really opens up the options with a 36 light exotic too!

What do people mean when they say they did 5 crota runs? I understand 3 for alts, but do you get loot everytime?
I know a few people that are running it multiple times with friends to help and learn the fights better. Crota is pretty tough to get the timing down so those extra runs are probably just polishing that part up.
 
so which is harder to solo this week - nightfall or weekly?

gonna do the daily, get my bounties out of the way, then weekly and nightfall. up for a CE raid after that

quickdraw is a PvP perk and is best used on heavy and special weapons. i've died a lot because my rocket launcher wasn't able to fire quickly enough as i sprint jumped into a room.

Yeah I can see it being useful in some cases. I used Single-Point Sling on the vendor bought Devil You Know as well since it didn't really need either of the other 2 upgrades and it did save me a bunch of times.

I'd still say a lot of the perks like Quickdraw are a lot weaker perks compared to say Javelin or Heavy Payload as those are useful 100% of the time and a lot of the other perks are very situational.

On special weapons I'd say it's even more lopsided. Like in Fusion Rifles Accelerated Coils vs Quickdraw.
 
2 Crota Raids Done
2 Weekly Done
1 Nightfall Done

Need to do 3 of everything but I'm about to head back to the gym.

Notable loot from today: Exotic Hunter Legs, Hard Light, Black Hammer (I have all the raid armor for Hunter but I want better stats in int and dis)
 
As much as I've enjoyed it this past week, I like the Crota fight less every time I play it. If you can throw 3 total GHorn rockets plus sniping at his shield every time the fight is a total joke.

I can't imagine the nightfall could ever be considered easier to solo.... if you die you're done. The weekly heroic gives you checkpoints! Cheeeeckpoints!
This thread is hauling ass right now
No kidding.

We are on pace to pass the 3/4 mark before the second Xur visit. Depending on how that visit goes, this thread could wind up catching up to or surpassing the speed of OT11.

Weekly is only Heroic and Arc Burn. Nightfall is Epic (more shields) and Lightswitch on top of the burn so it might be a little trickier. Your only true threat are the witches while Ghost opens the door though.
