You owe us Hornless guardians to only start sharding Horns from the 4th one.
Use those 3 Horns on every one of your alts!

Any logic in keeping the Croptarch/Factions/Crucible/Vanguard packs unopened at Postmaster before House of Volwes?

Or they will drop current loot even after HoW?

They'll drop current loots.
People did the same for TDB but it dropped non DLC stuff. The only exploit that worked was when people bought up their reputation level close to the next rank and ranked up only after TDB dropped to get the new stuff from vendor. Should work for HoW too in case they decide to introduce a new currency on top of commendations.

 

[Gammacide]

You got it! Congrats There are newbie raids every Thursday, switching between VoG and CE at 9:00PM eastern. Definitely stay tuned for sign ups.

That's perfect for when I get off work. I'll definitely be trying to get on those. Thanks for the heads up!

Eh. If you have one for each character, that's one less vault space block to think about.

I'm working on that right now. I plan to have one faction just about to pop on each character, then vanguard, then I'll swap class items around and start leveling different factions on different characters. I'm going to try to not get a package between now and HoW. Also starting to save up daily event packages.

I meant the packages will drop pre DLC loots even if you leave it unopened as that's how it worked for TDB.

Sure, that's why I don't want any more to drop between now and then. I want them all to pop on release day. The daily public event packages will be stored up for xp.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Anyone up for hm VoG?

Have a fresh 29 friend want to take him through his first hard raid.

 

[RemiLP]

Is there a release date for how?

 

[E92 M3]

HM was never really more difficult. It just made all the problems with the raid all that more obvious.

edit: ^ awesome, congrats Hudson!



Ding ding ding! Glad somebody gets it.

Also the anti-ethernet cable patch came around this time and introduced the quick stand insta kill glitch, don't remember exactly relative to HM release.

I used the word "hard" to describe the situation we're put in. It was hard initially learning all of the strategies and overcoming the numerous glitches and inconsistencies. Now, it wasn't hard in the traditional video game kind of way, but hard due to frustration and small margin of error that resulted from all of the glitches.

And fuck that insta-standup; nothing is more annoying.

 

[Deku Tree]

Is there a release date for how?

Nope, just Q2 from Bungie. Rumor from data mining suggests May 19.

 

[CouchMaster]

Is there a release date for how?

Was suppose to be tomorrow

 

[Deku Tree]

Was suppose to be tomorrow

Would have been so sweet! I am totally done with collecting TDB content. I have everything that I want... and I don't have the Crux. However if they use the time to add content and/or improve the game then I fully support the wait.

 

[Ridli]

Man, Urzok the Hated is a tough bastard. Managed to take him down twice before, but now that I need to do it for a bounty the fucker just wouldn't die.

Last time I had to do Urzok someone managed to cheese him off a cliff, Aetheon style. It was pretty funny.

 

[Breakfast at Noon]

Was suppose to be tomorrow

would of worked well for me

Also what is the prediction for tomorrow?

 

[Feorax]

Rainbow burn Archon Priest I think?

 

[Breakfast at Noon]

Rainbow burn Archon Priest I think?

I love archon priest now, i just sit down and let my friends with the black hammers stagger him to death.

 

[Deku Tree]

Man, Urzok the Hated is a tough bastard. Managed to take him down twice before, but now that I need to do it for a bounty the fucker just wouldn't die.

I defeated Urzok four times, never once failing to get it done. It's not that bad if you prepare. You should (1) bring friends (at least one) and (2) bring Arc Damage weapons (an Arc Shotgun and an Arc Heavy are key) and (3) know that Urzok is hard because he has a huge Arc Shield that regens very quickly if you stop hitting him but underneath that Arc Shield his health is puny. So once the shield is down you really need to keep attacking him non-stop until he's dead.

This is where having a friend is important because if you take his shield down and die and no one else is shooting him then his shield goes back up before you revive and the encounter is gonna be over before it started and you lost.

Too many people got Hawkmoons. Now Noomi is the only one left bitching.

If you have a Titan, blinding him makes it real charming. A good shotgun like Found Verdict should make quick work of him

Won't work for nightfall most of the time because of angry perk that prevents staggering.

Hah... yeah Did LiK ever get his?

 

[bosseye]

Hard Mode Crota raid still eludes me. Its the one thing I haven't been able to do, I've attempted it lots of times with various people but thus far never managed to complete it.

Latest attempt was on Friday night, fireteam was made up of all level 32s (including me) who had all run HM multiple times before so were well experienced. The Swordrunner was well experienced. So there was me thinking, nice one, good group, this could finally be my chance to get Glowhoo and something else interesting, but we just couldn't do it. Crota kept glitching, he wouldn't kneel when his shield was off, or he would suddenly stand up after a couple of hits with the sword etc etc. Eventually we ran out of time so we gave up.

Its very frustrating! I really want glowhoo. Some other weapons might be nice too.

Also, to sum up my luck with exotics lately, I got another Mida Multitool from Deathsinger which is great, but I've had it for ages already and am not particularly a fan.

If anyone wants to add me to their friends list, feel free. If I'm in Destiny, I'm usually available to raid, Crota or VoG, whatever.

[CapitalismSucks DonkeyBalls]

Having only one 31 character, this was my weekend accomplishments:

1. NM Crota's End
2. HM Atheon
3. Normal VoG (all)
4. HM VoG (all)

I'm about ready for the reset.

 

[MandrakeUK]

Felt dirty about this one. Got absolutely rekt one match and then this dropped

That's my third jellyhorn in about a month, so it's a bit worthless. But I'm still a bit hesitant about dismantling

What game mode did it drop on, control?

The hardest part about killing that bastard is that he usually spawn with the "enemies are moving against each other" event. I couldnt even touch him the first 3 tries. The 4th attempt, he spawned with the defend the warza thing. Killed him with ease then.

 

[E92 M3]

Urzok is supposedly one of the highest ranked soldiers in the Hive. "The Hated" is only bestowed on the few - maybe there could only be one. I think he had to kill the previous knight that held the title.

 

[Omni]

What game mode did it drop on, control?

Inferno.

It's sad that the only time I've ever got an exotic in crucible is in one of my worst matches to date ;_;

Consolation prize.

"You suck at this game. Here, maybe this will help."

 

[LiK]

Hah... yeah Did LiK ever get his?

nope, I don't give a shit anymore.

 

[E92 M3]

I like that exotics are random in the crucible - keeps the people playing instead of quitting.

 

[Robdraggoo]

it'll be in another page when Bloodborne comes out

im on the fence about this one. Ive never played a souls game and Ive heard they are unrelentlessly difficult.

not sure if I need that pain in my life. I currenlty have RE R2 disc preordered but have been thinking of moving the money to bloodbourne but not sure if I can stomach it.

what say you gaf.

need something to play before HOW drops. do I want to go for a longer more challenging experience or a shorter one?

 

[Kor of Memory]

I can't figure out why Inferno is so boring to me. Like, it's crazy hectic and I'm constantly killing or being killed and running to every side of the map. Yet, somehow, the wins just feel hollow, and the loses don't make me feel like I need to improve anything about myself.

Is inferno doing it for anyone else?

this was the best use of song of ur yut Ive found. it melts Urzok pretty quickly.

Reposting. We have 4, need 2 more. Fresh Vault of glass.

 

[noomi]

nope, I don't give a shit anymore.

Not giving a shit means it will now drop for you... so yeah I don't care either

Spoiler

I do

Even if it drops for me at this point, I'll probably be happy but not screaming at the top of my lungs "OMGOMGOMGOMG" Just.... heh... cool I guess.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Yeah, that's my usual strategy, just failed horribly that time. 😝

 

[Deku Tree]

If you have a max Thunderlord with full heavy ammo then its more like Urzok the Joke.

 

[Robdraggoo]

Why is FB still so good. did a NF this week with a maxed Fang of ur yut, 5 minutes later I switched to FB becuase it didnt feel like I was doing any damage. FB will one shot those solar shielded shanks while it feels like I was pecking away at them with fang.

Spoiler

althuogh the third eye perk was suprisingly useful in NF.

also still the most satisfying feeling gun in the game. granted I dont have Hawkmoon yet.

if im still using it when HOW drops Bungie has a problem.

 

[Robdraggoo]

some day the crackling sounds of Thor will be mine.

Is it only inferno that's doing that to you kor?

I always thought he killed the Hive's most fun loving party animal, "Steve, The Chick-Magnet".
