You did well, son. The expansion turned your luck around tenfold.

I want one badly! I'll trade in 2 extra Song of Ir Yuts (well I turned them into 6 energy) and a SwordBreaker for it haha.

How the shit are you doing a raid on your vita? I just can't do anything more than some bounties. Between the lag and the controls, no thanks.

No worries
When you hit 32, being on knight duty is the easiest thing. They die in one shot with an ice breaker.
I hate all you MIDA getting buttholes. Where's mine? WHERE IS MINE!

Congrats man, I have yet to see a exotic drop for anyone from a strike playlist and I've been playing since launch.
Hunger has become one of my favorite weapons. The Gjallarhorn will always be amazing, but HOC is bar none the best legendary launcher.
2 days ago, 3 strikes in a row someone got an exotic (not me).

Nice! I'm home in 3 hours if anyone wants to team up for ROC strikes, I'm on a mission for the hawkmoon!

MIDA: the most underrated weapon in Destiny in my opinion. I fucking love that gun for basic level content. Scout rifle with third eye, hair trigger, and agility buff? Yes please. Not to mention it's also very effective and has a really cool sound.
I want Hunger for that reason. I wanna use my Vex on PVP with it.

I don't mind shotguns that much, their range is pretty limited and fill a niche role.
However, fusions rifles really need a balance pass. They are OHK at close and medium range. In theory they are balanced because of the charge time, however this doesn't play out that way in match. First, you can pre charge, so this essentially this gets rid of the charge time issue all together, also add in the fact that some fusion have extremely low charge times. The only way to beat a fusion rifle is at long range or if the player misses. Also with the amount of special ammo on the maps, you can just use it as a primary.
I'm down for some ROC strikes, need to get my Titan to 31 and platesteel is holding me back!

Agreed. It's a sex-tier exotic.
You didn't even mention its ability to stagger enemies.
15 Crota loot drops later I am still waiting for my HoC.

If you make a direct connections thesres basically no lag.
I've dano everything in this game on the vita already.
Still wanna do this? We have 4. Getting 2 more shouldnt be that hard.
I have those an run sword all the time. It's just too much fun to pass up.

Any guess on what today's update will hold? Pandering or news?
Interestingly enough, I think I've only seen it drop twice in all my clears. I've actually seen more ballerhorns drop from Crota than HoC.

Have to agree. RNG has given me a bunch of them, and I turned my nose up at all of them until last week. I finally gave in and leveled one up to pair with my don't touch me gloves. After completing my final bubble last night, I'm a lean mean running machine that doesn't give a fuck.

Yeah I would be fine, going to work on some Eris bounties real fast to hit rank 4 finally first though.

Rngesus has smited my hunter for soloing the first part of the raid....no damn gear. One more chance at hitting 32 on at least one character for me.
You're very kind. Haven't gotten a text back unfortunately. But thank you.
I've had 2 drop for me and I have terrible luck with RNG most of the time.

Not much of anything as DeeJ is on vacation.
It'll be short. Thanking you all for holiday blah blah blah. Game of the year awards and noms. maybe a date for hard raid, and then that there's more to come to destiny. So stay tuned!

Me too! It works great! I even handle the relic on vita and when people find out afterwards they're always like wtf?!
He's a hacker, obviously. You really shouldn't play with hackers.
I've always thought they should allow people to re-assign loot from a boss, but only to those part of the kill and only for a short period of time (say, 3 minutes). So, if someone gets a 3rd HoC, then can just give that 3rd HoC to someone else in the raid. It's not full blown trading, which I'm against, but would help with the RNG a bit on boss drops.
They're called raid tokens and many MMO's use them now. Bungie should implement them too.
or make a vendor that sells them for radiant mats.

With Deej still gone, it'll be exactly the same amount of update with much less fluff. I am looking forward to it.
They'll probably just tease the next patch and hard mode Crota, but I am starved for any morsel of newness in this game.
That's why I always said that the RNG is some serious kind of bullshit, even in the new raid.
I dropped FIVE Hunger of Crota.

Ill give this a try... I need:
-Gjallarhorn
-Black Hammer
-Hunger of Crota
-Vision of Confluence
My list is shorter, lets make it happen RNGesus.
Honestly me too. It's what my Warlock is best suited for since Ice Breaker is always on him, and I really like the more subdued pressure of keeping the knights down for the rest of the team, which is critical for success even if you never hit the boss.
Actually, all my characters have sort of ideal setups/tasks:
Hunter is ninja swordbearer extraordinaire
Warlock is knight sniper/orb-generator
Titan is Weapons of Light-supplier and Gjallar-shield-break-horner
I'm becoming pretty competent running sword with my titan as well, just need some practice on my Lock.
Haha, I think I have 5 of the shotguns. I have multiples of the Sniper and fusion as well, but only 1 HoC and no heavy MG.

Admittedly I burned myself out on the sword so much the first week that I don't have any more fun running it than any other role. More than anything, it's the encounter design I find boring so it doesn't matter which role I do, unlike Atheon which is still a blast even though I've spent way more time in that fight.
I remember how much damn fun it was at first so I really want other people to get to experience that, there's no other experience quite like it. I'm happy to never run it again until hard mode if other people want to give it a shot.
My Destiny hype moments have been:
1.) First VoG Flawless
2.) First Templar kill on VoG release day with Lv25 PUGs
3.) First Crota kill, running sword
4.) Beating zoba's score in a Crucible match (only kinda joking, real hype is getting a Gaf Crucibulldozer going, especially during the 2nd Iron Banner)

Locks are the worst sword bearers. Obviously doable but just not as easy as hunter/titan, aka our overlords.
I'm telling you... find some people running the nightfall, join at the last second, BOOM. Guaranteed gjallars.
I also need it.

Hope to god its ascendant mats and not some new "ascendant iron" currency they add in.
I totally agree.
