Okay, so the only thing I have keeping me from Guardian Lord is maxing out subclasses for my Titan and Warlock. I'd probably have it done by now but I split my leveling between Voidwalker/Sunsinger and Striker/Defender. What's the fastest way to grind XP and get this done?
I think we just didn't have the timing down right. We were under a lot of pressure to figure it out quickly before the reset.
nightfall
FR sent. Anyone else for Iron Banner starting in 15-20 mins?
I'm in in about 15 min
If by tonight you mean like 5 hours from now, I'm in
I got it to work several times. The timing is pretty tricky.
Why say "ouch"? Yes it sounds like a bad deal to spend 16.5K glimmer on green helmets and then dismantle them for class mats. But if I get a glimmer farming crew together we can make 25K glimmer in 40 minutes or so. I think it's much faster to farm class mats this way vs. doing a bunch of roc strikes and destroying your drops.
Anyway I need another 48 of those Hunter class mats to level up my 29 Hunter. Four light away from 30. The grind is real.
Cool. Got you on friends list already.

Grinding bounties. Take advantage now that IB is up for a few easy 5k ones.
Atleast your Guardian Lordship is in your own hands. Mine is in Bungie's bringing back Salvage
Very badly. I've made no progess.

Oh. That reminds me. If I find some time I should grind some IB bounties for my Hunter to level her up.

Which Scout Rifle is the best one you can buy in the tower?
Good to go now
I like the ones that the vanguard is offering right now.
Did The Dark Below really add only 4 (PS4) new exotic guns to the game? I haven't seen any talk/screenshots/whatever about any other guns except:
- No Land Beyond
- Dragon's Breath
- 4th Horseman
- Necrochasm
I mean sure, all classes got 2? new exotic armor pieces, but I'd much rather have 1 new armor piece and 8 new guns as guns have a much bigger impact on gameplay than the armor does.
Anyone know of any other new exotic weapons?

Things I remember from CE blind raid at reset:
1.) Being over-hyped and simultaneously jumping to our deaths before the bridge formed.
2.) That first drop as the music kicked in and the darkness surrounded us... brilliant.
3.) Spectating as "Mattiator has become legend," the sole survivor of the first phase.
4.) Eventually piecing together the bridge phase. Can't wait for the "Templar" fight!
5.) Banging our squishy Lv30 bodies against Crota until World's First posted that a Lv31 was "required." At least we'll have "multiple phases" of Crota to look forward to, and two more loot drops!
6.) Splitting into teams of 3 to hit the grind heavy while bitching and moaning to the high heavens and laughing our asses off about it. Honestly, it's probably the most memorable part.
Obviously I only speak for myself, but that social/community aspect is the only thing keeping me playing now. Anytime I log on, there are multiple groups I can join up with (many non-gaffers too) to the point where I can't remember the last time I played for more than 45 minutes solo. It's also why I can't relate when people talk about "the whining;" it's much closer to "laughing" for me.
How does this gun compare to the SR from the last Iron Banner (I think it's called Gheleons demise)?
I've been looking for a 331 attack replacement since the Iron Banner SR is capped at 300
It's the best store bought 331 primary easily.
If you don't want to wait to be blessed by RNG, it's the way to go.
I did not buy the SR from Iron Banner (wasn't impressed, plus had VoC) so I can't compare.
I only run one character (Warlock) and it's the last piece of OC Exotic Warlock gear I need. I have had 3 Gjallarhorns though...

Why you coming home late? You cheating on us or something?!
Hahahahah sounds about right
.The only thing that keeps me coming back is the gaf community. I am a play every new release kind of guy and this has definitely stopped that in its tracks.
If this cheese isn't fixed extremely quickly I'm going to find it difficult to continue playing this game.
Seeing other people stumble into end game content and walk out with ill gotten things which RNG hasn't blessed you with yet after multiple attempts within the rules of the game is something which is always going to leave a horrible taste.
Perhaps this wouldn't be so sharp if the game wasn't as grindy at its core, but as is...I might just be done.

I say that because I can't grind. I can spend 3 hours trying to cheese the bridge in the raid, but 15 minutes of shooting cabal and wiping repeatedly is soul crushing. I can barely do bounties anymore. I have the gear and mats to three toons to 31, but can't bring myself to XP level them.

Would anyone be up for cheesing Crota for low leveled alts? I know cheesing seems to be frowned upon now, but I only see this as an opportunity that I can take advantage for the time being. The raid isn't hard by any stretch for anyone who knows what they're doing, but it would be too hard for an underlevelled alt.
3 hours cheesing the bridge? Takes like 15 minutes to do it legit. Or do the warlock res cheese.
EDIT The cabal glimmer farm is booring I agree. The GK glimmer farm is actually more fun with a fireteam IMO.
An empty and dramatic sob to RNGesus.

So, what the required level to do Crota's end?

30 but 31 is preferable

30 really, but you can get in as a 27
You just got bad cheese.

Actually its 27.
Just a little trick for anyone doing the Crota fight who didn't know about this (I didn't until earlier and I've beat Crota multiple times). Do not leave the beginning room until both sides of enemies are cleared, because that fight doesn't officially start until the first person walks out. Every time I've done it we've had someone sprint out and get the chalice, which is unnecessary.

Of course, but it was FUN and more challenging to try and take down the sword bearer, fly across, and kill everything on the other side as a 30 without a battlehorn. I wasn't doing it for the loot, but for the challenge.
Never did get it BTW. Something always went wrong.
