19 coins and a Lucky Raspberry. Actually, I think I'd prefer the coins over most exotic copies.

Iron Banner randoms...
This is why I'm thinking about skipping NF's, I can't handle it happening again this week

The accuracy was mostly affected on TLW since it fires so rapidly (also on the golden gun as well). For the Hawkmoon, it sounds like the range took a bit of a hit along with all other handcannons. Personally I didn't notice much of a difference with the thorn/fatebringer/word of crota. Couldn't say about the hawkmoon since i just got it today
I will try to reach Rank 2 in IB now
I will play with Hankmoon to make Noomi happy
Celebrate! Our crew already decided that we would do a hawkmoon only run for hard mode crota tonight haha! Also Messiek, Nuszka and Nami can now dismantle there extra hawkmoons they were saving for me lol!

Yeah we really didn't get anything good from that, but I guess that's par for the course.

I don't know you, I've never played Destiny with you, but from reading your posts in all these Destiny OTs and therefore being aware of your RNG woes, I am genuinely, honestly happy for you that Hawkmoon finally dropped. About time!

I'm not doing any Nightfalls this week. Fuck Omnigul.
I've heard reports that the accuracy on it was nerfed pretty badly. I haven't used since for months so I couldn't say for sure from personal experience.
Rubenov is a pvp guru though, and I know that his weapons of choice were TLW and Hawkmoon, he has said that they were ruined with the update
I thought TLW was ruined too. It took me a while to get used to it again. There are easier weapons to use but nothing kills as fast, still. It's so aggressive and fun to use. The accuracy nerf did hurt though. I'm probably using more of my clip per kill on average.
I think it was Zoba who posted the tip of using hip fire and shooting down at your enemy while jumping - this really does work well.
The nerf didn't feel as noticeable to me on Hawkmoon. It's still a surgical headshot machine.
It's just not worth the frustration.

But but fatebringer...
What about your Thunderlord?
Omnigul goes down with a few arc shotguns to the face BTW!
Didn't we have Omingul with Arc not that long ago? Or is time just flying for me.
Either way, its a hassle NF especially when I expect one of the following 'rewards' for my effort:
- Ass shards
- Ass energy
- Useless legendary shotgun
- Useless legendary handcannon
Thats all I seem to get from NF these days.

If you didn't notice the range nerf on the Thorn, you won't on the Hawkmoon.The accuracy was mostly affected on TLW since it fires so rapidly (also on the golden gun as well).

Question from a Destiny noob:
Why are level 30-31's jumping into my Level 8-9 story levels and destroying everything in sight? And it wasn't just once or twice that it has happened, it has happened in pretty much every story level I've been in since Old Russia at the beginning. Makes it so it isn't really fun for me to play through the story when everything around me is being one-shotted and I hardly get to shoot anything myself.

For the sake of posterity lol
Parts of the story mission take place in a public place.

Indeed, super weak.
Here's a tip for making it much easier: when you get to the second part of the strike, with omnigul, don't even bother shooting anything and simply run straight to the small room at the back of the kill room. Just run past omnigul and jump over the thrall and knights. Saves a nice chunk of time.

Set your game to private, they must be friends on your list.
or set to public? Can not be that there is no matchmaking for missions.

3 months ago. It was the first NF of the dlc.
Firebase Delphi? People love to capture C and jump into the window to B over and over again. It's incredible. The other "lanes" around the map wind up being totally desolate for minutes in some games.
Do you just mean in Patrol? There is very little reason for a level 30 to do a level 8 story mission. If you are not in a "darkness zone" then you are in a public space. People are either on patrol, on their way to a mission, or in the public space while doing part of a mission.

Don't think I'll be focusing a lot of energy to knock out NF. I have GTA V heists to finish and FF XV demo. All before Bloodborne comes out.
I do that for ROC and weeklies usually, but this week with arc burn, don't you just get melted trying to run past everything or does it still work easily?

Clear the room first. You can have it be just her until you deal a bit of damage.
You also need a dedicated "medic", to stay hidden and not peak out.
You get melted but clear out enough of the enemies and have no wizards out, you're safe to go.
Yeah I wouldn't do this. This shitty nightfall is over in an instant with the constant arc damage and melee enemies. You'd be really lucky to survive. I'm able to do this it in ROC strikes without fear of dying but it's not worth the risk in nightfall.
Christ that last part of the Pocket Infinity bounty was annoying and arguably the most "grindy" thing I've done in this game to date (~40 hours)...
...but it was worth it.
Thanks for the protip that you can actually go elsewhere on the map and still get credit for "Nightfall activity kills" and still have the ability to respawn.

Nope, story missions. Happened in Old Russia and on the Moon missions. I have it set to Public so that other people around my level can join me and we can work through missions together...but it's constantly level 30's joining and destroying everything...then some Public Event will start and they will destroy it as well.

No, we did this all three times. Faster and easier.

I did it this morning on my final nightfall. Easy mode. Wish I did it three times. Didnt get hit once, enemies barely spawned.
Yup you just have to go to another darkness zone that has level 30 enemies.
Nightfall is hilariously easy. The first time Omni was Arc burn was when I didn't have Fatebringer, with it just skip all enemies, go into the hidden room -- use Fatebringer to deal damage and when spawns new wizards just use a Rocket. Easy to solo.
This is the first week I am playing Iron Banner. It is so easy hahaha
I use Blade Dancer with Mask of the Third Man
Bad Juju (better than Vex imho)
Two to the Morgue (with Rangefinder)
Hunger of Crota
I usually do well in Crucible but Iron Banner is super easy.

If you're seeing Public Events, then your still in the Patrol areas. You might be in a mission, but outside of the darkness zones, the world is an open instance. You're just seeing other guardians in that space. Get to the darkness zones and you'll be with just your fireteam.

Well, that will happen in "public" spaces. I can understand if you don't like it, but it is something you will just have to accept. They are small, brief sections that will be excluded in "Darkness Zones" which is the bulk of the mission where they shouldn't join you.
