Ya if you can capture 2 points you are having a very high chance of winning, you must have a much higher k/d ratio with one capture point
Am I the only one getting errors every 15-30 min?

Yep. Mostly so I can start getting gear out of the vault. Probably as soon as I get the Titan to 20 I'll start up a Warlock too.

Which type of game will be faster to get my void damage kills in Crucible for Thorn?
I have a maxed Plug1 I am using and it does the job. Just trying to do this as quickly as possible.

I like control since it's easier to predict everyone's movement.

Agreed. For some maps Clash is good too. I wouldn't do any of the others (as in Salvage and Skirmish; Rumble is pointless) unless you're playing with a team of friends.
Edit: If you're really good at Rumble you could. I just never had the Void weapons to be effective at Rumble for that bounty.

Good idea.
Is invisibility helpful at all in PvP? Trying to go invisible and sneak up on people for fusion kills to make this a little faster.
Edit: Oh and what about armor, recovery and agility? Is it better to have as much of one as possible or keep them even?

Thanks to iRAWR I got my first ever PS exclusive weapon from the Gorgons chest.
Merry Christmas to me! Now I guess I'll use a shard to buy the upgrade from Xur whenever he sells it.

Skyshock...ugh why.
I can just see it returning in Destiny 2 as a "fan favorite".

Fan favorite as the most hated map perhaps?

Ugh maybe my accounts just aren't supposed to get armor drops anymore. Cheesed the end of the Crota raid with my level 27 Titan in hopes of getting some armor..Nope. Just poor mans Gjallarhorn (Hunger of Crota). A shader and some radiant shards. On my level 31 warlock all I get is raid boots and radiant energy. FML.
What a coincidence. I just got a Monte Carlo from the same chest.

Invisibility will keep you completely off the radar, so it's up to your playstyle that will determine how effective you are with it. Same with armor vs recovery vs agility. I like being nimble with a Hunter so I pick agility. With the other two classes I go with different builds.

The shit you find while taking a poo and reading stuff on your phone...lol

Invisibility can be, but just remember that you're invisible on people's radar not to their eyes, and you can hear when it gets activated as well.
Always agility when you're aiming to do Pvp.

I wouldn't be surprised if this game had some kind of daily/hourly pool of RNG items to choose from instead of a huge list. So many people I know have gotten similar stuff in a short amount of time.
That sentence not being hilarious in itself, that vid was great lol.
I finished with my hunter and got NOTHING but shards and energy. No armor, no weapons, nothing.
I personally did it with rumble both times
I completed this part of the bounty. If you're a solid 1v1 player, the shit is easy. I did mine in a couple of hours in rumble. The first time I used a Nox Cantor (shitty green FR) and a Ghengis E MG. More recently, I had Light/Beware and Corrective Measure and it was fucking cake. Light/Beware will obliterate anything in front of you and it will do it fast.
I prefer rumble because, if you can control the heavy ammo, you can control the match. You'll end up with something like 23 kills and 6 deaths. Just make sure your playstyle coincides with using a fusion rifle.
The other guys recommended control, which I don't think is bad, but I'm fairly certain it would go slower, unless you play aggressively (which would be to your detriment because you can get double or triple teamed quite easily). Good luck!
I have 3 thorns and rumble is how I got it done faster...good advice Sharkjaw...

Despite your phrase "the shit you find " I do actually consider browsing on the throne normal and wow the shit you find indeed
Where to start with that video, the AI? Wtf

Platinum Trophy: Learned to Shit While Upright Again.
Yes she has, I think 2 days ago, the Warlock Grenades During Radiance and Kill 10 Hive enemies quickly is brand new
Guessing Firebolt Grenade + We've Woken the Hive fit this bounty
(Yep just did it, was quick and easy)

So
Gift of the Sun + Radiance + Praxic Fire = 11 Firebolt Grenades thrown, nets me 8 orbs
After 8 orbs, you don't gain any more, you have to do cycle We've Woken the Hive or WWTH 7 times to net you the 50 orbs, takes 10 minutes =D
Great thing is you can lob the Grenade a little behind enemies, and it nets you the Out of Sight bounty too!

i bumped my recovery up on my hunter and i barely notice a difference in how fast my shield comes back. warlocks recover their health the second you stop shooting them, whereas it takes me 5-8 seconds out of a battle to recover.
agility is very noticeable tthough. my first jump lets me jump on top of a lot of ledges and crates i'd normally need to double jump onto. double jumping makes a noise and pauses your trajectory. it also makes me unable to fire my weapon, which is usually a hand cannon in PvP. They're more accurate in the air compared to other guns, so it's actually important for me to have that high jump to maximize my mobility.
maybe if recovery was 50% faster i'd keep it, but the way i see it, if i don't kill my enemy quickly and retreat to cover, i'm probably already dead anyway.

Merry Christmas Guardians!!
To the people who have started a 2nd and 3rd character, did you find it more beneficial to pick the same type and share gear? I have a 31+ Warlock that I love, but I would like some variety in gameplay styles. I want to create a Hunter for variation but I also want to be able to Raid multiple times and get the most out of the weekly stuff. Your thoughts?

It seems many people create an alt of their original class and then create one other class. I had to go with all 3 classes. Needed that variety and it helps me better understand encounters during crucible.
