Ugh this is the reason I hate crucible, haha. It's annoying having so few options against someone who is competent with TLW. I either have to hide or have a machine gun and hope they miss a shot. It's absurd how quickly it melts people.

Also: stop blinking - you're a warlock :p. I bet you blink-shotgun people dont you!? FOR SHAME

What are you guys doing to get so many exotic rng drops anyway? I've gotten exactly one in 2d 16h of play, from my first nightfall weekly. Hell, I think I've only gotten one or two legendary engrams. I do play a lot of crucible, if that explains things, and hardly ever do Rocs

I have 28 days played on just my Hunter, so.

Gt: RedFury03. 2 guys/friends from work pretty much begged me to get destiny on x1(already own it on ps4 with over 30 exotics). They finally broke down and each payed half, I couldn't say no to that lol. Just started and already 26. I'm up for pretty much anything.

I've been looking to do flawless for awhile. PSN: LordNimon if you have room when you do it.

We can do this anytime tonight if people are around and PSN is working. It takes no time at all, I'll keep hanging around the thread to see if there's a group trying to get going.

Added. Although I do have to say it's largely bullshit that you can't carry your progress over across PS > Xbox. There's no good reason other than their stupid exclusives shit. Huge missed opportunity.

Really sorry I didn't get home in time to set up Sword School tonight. It'll be on next time as usual. Been a busy weekend. Sounds like there have been some intermittent connectivity issues anyway. I hope you've all had a good weekend. I'll be home soon but I'm gonna be playing so much tomorrow night I may not even try to get online... might just play some more Dying Light :>

Friends list is especially dead today.

Starting to really feel burned out on Destiny. I'm missing Black Hammer, but otherwise I've got pretty much everything I want.

I'd really like some House of Wolves info soon.

Yeah a really good group!!

Rocket - where was your guy sniping from? If you could explain what he was doing I'd appreciate it. It worked great and saved the orbs for the door shields
Click to expand...

He usually stands in the left window area on the center platform. There, he can help with killing the swordbearer if he's down in the middle or to the right, and has a great view of the right boomers. He sometimes will throw a grenade, use a rocket or even kill one of them if need be--usually the one closest to Crota.

On Hard, the sniper needs to be a 32 with maxed sniper to really get the attention of the boomers. We've found that a 31 cannot do enough damage to get the boomers attention a lot of the time.

Also helpful for the sniper is a good mid-long range Scout as backup just in case the IB or Black Hammer runs out of bullets. Hence the rockets as well. So a little bit of attentive ammo monitoring and juggling helps a lot.

Deep in my heart, I secretly wants it. But I'm too scared to even try. :(
Click to expand...

nah, don't be scared, you could do it for sure lun! Everyone just plays super conservative and even if we die on Crota it only takes 20 minutes to get back there so no worries.

But... but bu tomorrow??
Click to expand...

Oh, we'll do it tomorrow night for sure either way, no worries! :) Shouldn't be hard to fill out a normal CE group if some people end up doing it tonight vs. tomorrow night.

The last couple flawless CEs I did took <1 hour total.

The game is so compulsive you start relying too much on it for entertainment. Go play something else until you miss it.

I actually play a bunch of different games. Destiny has just been one small cog. Currently playing Suikoden 2 and Dragon Age Inquisition.

I'm just saying that I'm burning out before the next expansion in ways that didn't happen before Dark Below.

You can fire bursts of Auto Rifle fire at them to get their attention I've found.

Yeah, it's just a reflection of how incredibly thin TDB was with content.

-2 "new" strikes going through pre-existing areas until reaching small disc-locked boss rooms
-3 disc-locked story missions that take maybe ~45 minutes to beat total
-Extremely short and simple 1-boss raid that delayed HM a month to add nothing of value or substance
-4 garbage-tier exotic weapons, although some new armor is pretty legit
-Some nice new legendary vendor weapons, but nothing that'll occupy you too long
-2 new PvP maps, 1 abomination that shall not be named

...that's it. I could have easily occupied my time between CE and HoW with another VoG-tier (or better) raid but instead the only thing that's taken up much time is wasting hours upon hours to help people clear Scrota's bitch ass nonsense.

Can you imagine how Xbox users feel. They don't even have access to some of that content

It's Xursday. You know? I don't understand why that's so hard to understand."
