I've fallen in love with the Hunter Shotgun+Blink Strike combo.

It wrecks.

After all the time I've spent with my hunter in this game, I just started messing around with blink jump yesterday while trying to solo the bridge... Let's just say it's an acquired taste.

Finally, got the saint-14 for my titan though, and decided to pick up the claws of ahamkara for future pvp set ups. Glad to see the datamined info was spot on.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

haha I didn't know shotgun blinking was frowned upon here :O
it's fun!

it's annoying as fuck and OP but the game encourages it so you'd be stupid not to do it I guess. I want a primary only mode for those of us who don't like that stuff

You should only be blinking in PvP. Blink in PvE has no reason to exist.

Claws are the best warlock exotic imo. Not just for pvp. Shields for days.

So, does anybody here on DestinyGAF play the game on XB1? I realize PS4 is by far the most popular platform on GAF in general, but my friends are on XB1 and we consistently need 2-3 people to fill out raid teams on Tuesdays and Sundays. Just looking for some people to add to the friends list.

What's your gamertag?

 

[Ambitious]

I'm going to to three Nightfalls in a few minutes. What was the consensus regarding Fang vs Fatebringer?

 

[Silav101]

I'm going to to three Nightfalls in a few minutes. What was the consensus regarding Fang vs Fatebringer?

Fatebringer by far. You will kill droves of trash mobs with the firefly perk explosions. Swap to fang if you dont have an arc.sniper rifle (though you won't need one using fatwbringer).

 

[Admodieus]

What's your gamertag?

Admodieus - will probably be on a night running Vanguard Roc

 

[Haybro]

I'm going to to three Nightfalls in a few minutes. What was the consensus regarding Fang vs Fatebringer?

Fatebringer all day every day.

 

[rNilla]

Fang all the way. I only find Fatebringer more useful when there are packs of Thrall which is not the case this week.

I find being shoulder charged is much more annoying.

Universal Remote Blink mode? Sounds fun.. lol

(seriously though primaries only, no supers would be awesome)

 

[Cruxist]

Looking for an easy VoG hardmode clear yesterday and unintentionally sherpa'd a guy.

He was super chill about it and told us immediately, but we walked him through all of the requisite stuff. It was pretty funny though, all of us abandoned him on the jumping puzzle and he didn't want to speak up immediately. After a minute he was like, "uhhhhhhhh, guys?" and one of my buddies jumped off and showed it to him.

Atheon went down super easy too. No Vex drops, but he got the speeder so that was cool.

But it felt good, helping a dude with blue gear through Vault.

 

[Orochinagis]

I'm going to to three Nightfalls in a few minutes. What was the consensus regarding Fang vs Fatebringer?

Perfect loadout for this nightfall is

Primary

Fatebringer

Special

Black Hammer (Works wonders for the Shanks, the spider and the servitor boss)
*Patience and Time (Massive damage for the spider and the servitor boss)

Heavy

Thunderlord
*Deathsinger heavy machine gun

 

[KxoZz]

I want a Time's Vengence mode.

 

[Mindlog]

I'm going to to three Nightfalls in a few minutes. What was the consensus regarding Fang vs Fatebringer?

I have all the arc primaries fully maxed. Fatebringer is fine.
Patience and Time is great.
Arc tracking rocket launcher is great (I have a Radegast's Fury for this.)

Black Hammer is a huge help.

 

[Gordon]

I want a Time's Vengence mode.

What, like PvP with a rainbow burn?

 

[firehawk12]

No, I don't have a regular group that I play with as my playtime is so sporadic. Then it involves heading to destinylfg or hoping one is running here. Lazyness kicks in and I start to play another game lol

Weeklies have matchmaking now, so you can just do those for 18 coins.

Wait... what

Is it the claws on sale today or the skull? xurday.com is still showing last week's.

The claws are a much better exotic (one of my favorites actually) but I wanted to buy the Skull..

 

[Navid]

I'm going to to three Nightfalls in a few minutes. What was the consensus regarding Fang vs Fatebringer?

Personally preferred Fatebringer for the 3 waves and the Fang for the walker, doesn't really matter what you go with for eyeball as you'll mainly use sniper (patience and time) and a heavy.

 

[Hawkian]

You should only be blinking in PvP. Blink in PvE has no reason to exist.

I absolutely love it in PvE, consider a "to each their own" approach my friend.

edit: Nowhere in CE though. Long uninterrupted stealth is too useful.

Thunderlord chews apart Sepiks too, if you're on the mark

 

[KxoZz]

What, like PvP with a rainbow burn?

Time's Vengence, All burn, and Heavy weapons only.

 

[Ambitious]

Thanks for the replies. Going to start now, in case anyone wants to join (NF x3).

 

[Haybro]

Oops, meant the ahamkara's spine.

Both the skull (warlock) and spine (hunter) are on sale this week.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Thanks for the help Arya.

Anyone for weekly heroic?

 

[Gordon]

Time's Vengence, All burn, and Heavy weapons only.

Jesus, call it Clash of The Thunderlords lmao

Edit: or Big Team Heavies on Spire :/

 

[TearsOfBlood]

Thanks for the help Arya.

Anyone for weekly heroic?

Yeah, looking for 1 more. What's your PSN?

 

[PrivateWHudson]

You trying to tell me something?

Lol...If I saw this, I would have saved a spot for you. We had four for a while, then all of a sudden...eight.

ME! Gamertag: rlench.

I doubt I'd be available for either date this week due to work, but I will be around for any Raids after that. I can usually bring a friend or two, who aren't GAF members

It wrecks.

It certainly wrecks my motivation to play Crucible...

 

[Hawkian]

Oooh yeah. Spine is great, makes my Pocket Infinity build. throw a tripmine into a corner and make a killbox

 

[E92 M3]

K, I will add you.

 

[Ambitious]

Fallen Walker down. Approaching Sepiks (Nightfall).

 

[Orochinagis]

Ok, time to farm that Scorpio Miracle again. hold me guys

 

[squidhands]

is there a particular element that works better on Atheon, or is it just based on pure damage stats?

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I'm going to to three Nightfalls in a few minutes. What was the consensus regarding Fang vs Fatebringer?

I started with Fatebringer but found myself preferring the fang. It's just so smooth and effortless. It's a great weapon

Yup I am Lothars on Xbox One

 

[MildSoss]

Man, Hawkmoon ain't no joke in pvp. Kind of wish I would of gotten my hands on it before they nerfed hand cannons though.

 

[Kor of Memory]

Need one for crota kill on hard mode.

 

[stb]

Haven't been able to read the thread or play the last few nights (I'm still on page 115), but just popping in to say:

HELM OF SAINT-14! AHHHH!

I was driving to work this morning when I remembered it was Xurday and actually said out loud "those fuckers better not have taken away Saint 14".

I was alone in the car.

I love it I'm about halfway through levelling it already and the drop I took by switching to a new Exotic Helmet was much smaller than I expected

Enjoy the cheese cake saga.

Thanks for The invite! Sorry I can't help out, I'm logging off now.

Edit: I decided against doing another true top of page celebration.

 

[Ambitious]

First NF: Vanquisher with Cascade (Melee kills increase reload speed), Snapshot/Lightweight/Skip Rounds, and Third Eye. Useless perks. Gonna dismantle.

 

[MagnetoWasRight]

Verdict and Sentencing:
While the immediate evidence would seem to exonerate Mr. Macello from any wrongdoing, additional information has come to the court's attention: he still insists on doing the heavy ammo glitch, even on normal mode and after Xur sold synths again. For this unforgivable crime, I sentence you to eternal banishment in the SCRUB ABYSS:

I do not do the heavy ammo glitch on normal! That was Bunzy too!

That gif doesn't show how far back into that room he knocked me. I still have no idea why that door opened either.

 

[The Rain King]

is there a particular element that works better on Atheon, or is it just based on pure damage stats?

Pure damage. I used my arc vendor Epitaph for the longest time.

Still better than Hardlight

 

[CouchMaster]

Man, Hawkmoon ain't no joke in pvp. Kind of wish I would of gotten my hands on it before they nerfed hand cannons though.

Hawkmoon is mostly unaffected, probably the least of the three. TLW got hit the most.

Haha, same.

They keep spawning out of that door sometimes if you don't wipe after Deathsinger.
