It's the hive version of a nerf gun
That is just sad...

It's already over.
HM Crota is too buggy and the timing required to complete the fight is too tight for an online game with lag and one little mistake often causes a wipe. So frustration and lack of fun even for a very good team with everything maxed. And most people have everything already and the rewards left are not exciting enough (or total trash like the Necrochasm) so yeah...
... I'm doing dailies until I have 800 of each planetary material (already have over 400 of each) and I'm doing reset raids and NF+Weeklies with my friends and otherwise that's it...
... it's kind of good to take an extended break... nobody can play the same game obsessively forever...

I didn't touch it the first week but beat it 7 times since (one extra to help friends) and have never seen the Crux drop for anyone in any group, either.
It's literally all I need to be done with HM for good, and I fear I will be chasing it for months.

That's really weird to me, it seems like EVERYONE got it the 2nd week of the hard raid, literally everyone in our fireteam got it that week. Bungie must have screwed up and increased the drop rate too much, and then stealth nerfed it to be much less frequent.
I'm still missing the ship and sparrow.... would really like that ship
Honestly, I don't blame ya man, I'm also starting to become a bit "meh" about doing everything now-a-days. I think tomorrow reset after we get out 3 normal kills, and then 3 hard kills in the evening that'll be it for me for the week
3rd Revenant shader...why...
Would love to get this shader, I've received 3 hanged man shaders so far. Want rev and bittersteel mostly. They look badass

Hoping and praying that Bungie comes up with a buff like what they did for Thorn and take the Necrochasm from worst to first.

RNG hates me in Crota's End. The stingy bastard refuses to drop any weapon for me. I haven't gotten one to drop outside the first one that is guaranteed. I will probably give Crota many more attempts to try and fill out the raid loot. Good thing Abyss and Bridge have drops too otherwise I wouldn't have jack.
This video is so perfect.
And they're going to nerf Auto rifles further to...
*Facepalm*
First looked at the stats and was like "nope", but I held out that the explosion perk would be worth putting up with a shitty gun... it can't even take down thralls ffs.
It's possible if the game is supported properly post launch... unfortunately it feels like there's some animosity between Bungie and the players.

It was a great idea in principle, but spending a few marks is easier and more beneficial.
The game could use some new Exotic Bounties.
Thorn was already good before the patch. The patch just took it to godlike. There is nothing you can do to make Necrochasm worthwhile except maybe make it the bane of the hive or something. I'm thinking like 200-400% increased damage against hive. That would make it a powerful PvE weapon for certain activities.

I have one HM ship. One NM ship. No sparrows. But I have like lots and lots of Timebreakers and I hear the Crota HM sparrow is the same exact thing in a different color. I was hoping the HM Sparrow was covered in hive rock since it isn't and it otherwise is not different in any way it's kind of a Meh to me...

do bungie even playtest anything? i could list white nail, or phantom gift or the 2 different heavy ammo bugs but i'll just say you can see warlock's ass happily clip through the deathsinger's mantle when riding a speeder... it's there in your face, took like 2 seconds to notice and they shipped it like that :|

why indeed
Thorn was still good before it's patch, if you really hated the reload speed, the Hunter's chain of woe was a good compensation for that weakness.
Only buff that will work for necrochasm is changing it into an entirely different gun.
I've been saying for months that around 5 people are still working on this game, and that may include Deej.

Lol, same here, I've probably deleted upwards to 20 timebreakers now. Each week I run 3 Atheons and I get it at least twice
Even though the crota sparrow is the same, I just want to have it as part of the collection. Same goes for the ship... although the ship is pretty damn nice hehe.

I only use the Red Death now. I wanna be nasty with it so that when the patch comes out, I'm a champion pulse rifle user.
Yes, this is what it's come to for me now.

Wut? Rasputin is the longest mission, and most annoying imo. Wakening is so quick and easy, you can just run to the end without killing anyone and kill the soul with heavy and snipers real quick.
You stole his Thunderlord
It was pure karmic retribution, he was talkin' some smack after that Hawkmoon dropped earlier
.I never tried it down there. I've got an upgraded one that I'll try come reset!
It's funny, we both got Hard Lights and Thunderlords the same week. You from Raids and me from Crucible.
I can't believe you sharded your 2ND Hawkmoon! One per character before sharding!
You should join my clan the Gjallarhorny Fartbringers. Since joining, all but 2 of our members have received Gjallarhorns and Fatebringers! It works!

This is ridiculously hilarious. One may ask themselves indeed if Bungie even playtests their guns/own content after seeing this. I'm sure the guys and girls at Bungie are all good people, but this is shameful. The top-tier rarest reward in the entire game and this is what it does?
Lol Flocki.

This is an exotic people. An exotic! And it's about to get nerfed!
I am definitely down for that. It's possible I'll have another day off from work for snow tomorrow, so could do it during the day but I'm guessing night is better for most.

A large part of the "meh" comes from the fact that this is all we have until April/May/June. That was just deflating. I honestly thought Bungie would be releasing some new stuff/having events each week, if only small stuff like IB. Instead, we have next to nothing after 5 months with nothing in sight. Oh well.
Nothing to see here "working as intended"

Yeah I'll be at work until 5 PM CST so it would have to be at night around 6 or so.

75-100% impact increase should help the necrochasm compete with other weapons.
Assuming all shots are crits
The necochasm does a total of 2856 damage per clip
The fang does 8424 per clip
The fang takes 9.6 s to evacuate it's clip and reload and the nercochasm takes 6s
So the necrochasm does 476 DPS and the fang does 877.5
If no shots are crits then the necrochasm does 378 DPS and the fang does 779

Anyone have a normal deathsinger checkpoint I could grab this evening? I haven't been playing much this week and might as well try to get 6 shots in at an exotic before the reset.

Yep. Prevailing theory is that they set the drop rate ridiculously low the first week (or it was bugged), then overtuned it the other direction the second week so it was real easy to get, and now it's probably about where they want it.
Honestly I was fine with the upcoming AR nerf for the sake of Crucible. Since I quit using ARs a long time ago (beyond Atheon's Epilogue when I need void)
But then a strange thing happened. NF granted me Hard Light AR
I really dig it too. Still I dont think the nerf will be too bad

I'm just amazed that literally all the weapon exotics in TDB are trash. Well, Dragon's Breath isn't too bad, but it's still not very good either.
Yes and unfortunately I wasn't one of the lucky ones =/
They tied their own hands by making no real distinctions between PVE and PVP.
They are so afraid to create a weapon that would be broken in PVP that they all end up being quite "meh" in PVE...
Even No Land Beyond, that, I suppose, was aimed at being a PVP weapon more than anything else, ended up crappy in the field it was meant to shine.

TTK or Time To Kill is important to bungie. they don't want to lower your enjoyment of the game by having you kill enemies too fast. and with the Nercochasm you won't kill enemies at all...
I sacrificed a thunderlord to get your fatebringer to drop. What should I shard for the crux?
I'd love to tag along or fill in.

Argh I want to run sword for you..but don't have time
Yeah it appears a lot of us are in similar spots with destiny :/
1 Raid Helmet, 1 Word of Crota, Truth, and 10 Destination Materials should do the trick! Thanks!
