I respectfully disagree with you all. While it can be annoying with being super killed, at least Destiny, for the most part, doesn't spawn an enemy right behind you when you just spawned. I loved previous COD games. I agree some stuff, like map voting, is missing, but I find most of the maps to actually be bigger than the COD maps in AW. I guess to each their own?

Did you guy ever think what is the point of exotic shards for weapons? The damage increase is proportionate to the other nodes and in most cases it's not necessary to max. Shouldn't exotic shards at least double the damage increase from the other nodes? Otherwise, as it stands, they are just an arbitrary item with minimal use except for armor.

Only in Crucible? Lol. I never play Crucible and I still average about ten disconnects per day. Bungie says it's my setup. When that ends up being fine, they say it's my ISP. My ISP says it's Bungie. I've had days where I'll load up the game and get weaseled in the first five minutes.
They'll blink into a one-shot Felwinter kill.
The same as every other arbitrary as hell esoteric upgrade material. Like Ass at launch and Radiants a few months ago, it's meant to make upgrading harder. Which I wouldn't mind if the system weren't so damn messy with so many different items

For Felwinters Lie, I rolled luck in the chamber, hammer forged, and feeding frenzy. Keep or roll again for a HF + Shot Package/Rangefinder combo?

id go for shot package
i personally like the combination of shot package + snapshot.. drawing the weapon fast can make the difference between a "trade" kill
speaking of which I've been using quickdraw on blade dancer per unstable's suggestion.. really nice
> felwinter's lie
My rage is like unto the power of a thousand suns.
That aside, luck in the chamber, Hf and shot package, especially for pvp.

Well ass was at least used for the last 3 nodes. Eshards are just one node that grants no special properties lol.
I like that yellow box, but only for weapons I actively use.

I got Luck in the Chamber and Shot Package for my Fellwinter's Lie...
But I didn't get any range on it (I think my options for that tree are +2 agility, switch weapons faster, and some other thing).
I really need range on my shotguns, so I'm probably going to re-roll. So close :/

LOL at the idea that Destiny PvP is actually good.
It's utter trash. You can easily tell they scrapped together everything in a short amount of time by how poorly designed every map is as well as the non-existent game balance. Look at how broken the Hunter supers are and tell me there was some actually thought behind it for PvP.
I understand the spawning issues in CoD but please don't think that spawns in Destiny are great cause they are not.

Sorry to tell you this, but this probably comes from your console: never had one crash in more than 600 hours of play.
And as someone who watches and read a lot of people playing this game, I've never heard of this. As much flaws as the game can have, stability is not one. :/
EDIT: oh you're on Xbox? PS4 here, so I can't comment on that personally. But one of the best PVP players streams himself on Xbox one, and I've never seen or heard him talk about a crash.

Out of motes and landed on Final Round, Hammer Forged, Full Auto.
I wouldn't play destiny at all!
edit: oh wait this is community and not latest hate thread.

the auto rifles not worth it but
you can get rank 5 and do the reset glitch next time
also, goldspiral looks really cool with the warlock IB chest imo
I hit rank 5 today trying to get the shotgun. The Auto Rifle is really bad but it's also really fun to use, it does almost no damage but the magazine is HUGE and it fires soooo fast.
Wanna explain that glitch?

Ugh it'd take about 48 crucible matches to get rank 5
at an average of 10 minutes per match
that's 480 minutes or 8 hours of just crucible
Why does it take so damn long
Edit-with the current temperered buff
they should make the last day 200%, not 160%
who the hell thought 160% was a good number to end on

Next time IB comes be in orbit during reset and go into the tower a minute after reset time. IB vendor will be there but since you haven't logged out you'll still have your rank from previous IB. I tried this time and couldn't though. I got errors trying to go to tower, had to log out and come back so I lost my rank.I hit rank 5 today trying to get the shotgun.

from reddit:
i went too soon this time.. the door was still closed for me
but it worked for several people here
Where!?!?!?
It amazes me how annoying it can be to play with randoms who insist on going for flags when the team already has two capped. Especially on maps where it will flip the spawn to undesired results. When you see randoms do dumb things it makes me wonder how anyone can advocate for raid matchmaking.

I just tried the Felwinter's for the first time in Rumble and took one very small step toward that Grimoire completion.
My one gripe is that the gun fires slower than a rocket launcher. If I don't kill in the first shot, I just get up and grab a glass of water because I know I won't be allowed to pull the trigger again until then. Is there any perk to counteract this other than full-auto? And does full-auto make that much of a difference? I've never really rolled with a shotty before, so I'm trying to find what works best for me, and the slow rof is maddening to me.

lel 8 hours of Iron Banner today trying to get a Felwinter's and I didn't get it. RIP.
Yeah, their servers suck.

Full auto only makes Sense on shotties with a high rof (invective, found verdict, shame swordbreaker doesnt have it).
Felwinter's power is the immense base range and ability to roll shot package. If invective is an auto rifle, felwinter is a sniper rifle.
And it fucking feels that way, this iron banner. Man, screw that shotgun so hard.

Bounties get the same percentage buff with Tempering. +200 today. +250 tomorrow. That is a ton of rep with 6 bounties per day.

Yeah like....I'm at rank 3 right now about 1/5th to rank 4...and like...I don't wanna do it anymore. It's killing me, homeboy.
I'M NOT GONNA SPEND HOURS TRYING TO GET HEADSHOTS OR 10 KILLS NO DEATH
It hurts mang. It's like...I don't wanna do that. it's not fun.
I would play 20 hours of crucible for a gallahorn in void and arc.
Edit: No I would play 20 hours of inferno for that. Hear me bungie! Make it happen!

Also I still find it funny that they have never done a Queens Wrath event ever since the first one.
This means that literally nobody has her shader or emblem since it was impossible to reach rank 3

yeah, the 10 kills bounty can be a challenge for many, I have only complete it one day this week, but the others aren't bad at all. I can usually get the other 5 in a 1 hour session.
Best thing about Black Hammer is that his unique perk is the first bubble to unlock, and its "complimentary" one (mulligan) is the one further away in the tree.
All exotics should work like that really, would have made the transition to TDB less painful, and it would help motivate the players to try out their new weapons more.

The headshot one you'll fet without working for it. Just pick it up and after some matches it'll pop up. Likewise the 10k XP and probably melee / Dead Man's Hand. Just play and watch them slowly fill up. That 10 kill streak one can be a bit hard though. Tip: it doesn't have to be in one match and kills after the match is done count. Once the winner is proclaimed if you're lucky you can get in a few kills before the character freezes and then just finish up by playing safe the next match
But yeah the IB grind is crazy. All I like about it is it's the only way I force myself into making some Crucible Marks.
I wanna have 200 Crucible and 200 Vanguard Makes on each character by when HoW drops for an automatic gear overhaul at reset. If there is an interesting Hand Cannon or Scout I'd use my scrub Warlock's marks and upgrade him later

Oh, I did the 10k xp/melee one. I always end up picking up 2 bounties or so.
Seems like the vendors won't be selling gears to get you to 33 this time around though, if we are to believe what they said about not repeating that "mistake"...I wanna have 200 Crucible and 200 Vanguard Makes on each character by when HoW drops for an automatic gear overhaul at reset.

Haha just saw your CoD: AW post. Check out my reply in that thread.
Thank you for your reply! It's good to know "why" you think the game is garbage. Yes, I agree with you, the spawns suck! We do agree on that
I would just pick up all of them and play. You would be surprised how many bounties you would naturally complete.

Well you know what? I was surprised that the 2 purple engrams I got weren't complete shit, so maybe I will.
....I really won't, I think I'm done with Destiny for the day. Grinding for 2 hours has swallowed my soul.

We need solid info on this. I really hope they give a full info dump on progression before HoW releases.
I expect vendor gear is upped to Light 36 for level 32. Only Raid gear or IB gear gets you higher.
