Think we got some spots open in the Crucible train!
same, they are my two favorites. I didn't know people still hated Dust Palace after the shotgun buff, it's a blast and quick as hell. Will be nice when they are unlocked for Xbox cousins
Remember, this is a selectable perk and not an innate ability (like Force Barrier on Defender)You are using Sunbro? Any melee hit give you a frame shield

I'm not super great at PvP, but would like to join if you have some spots and are willing to take a not pro.
PSN is greyblade.
Since my return to this game, which was the latest IB, I've had consistently garbage connections. A lack of a good hosts, maybe? I don't think the PVP population is very big TBH.
I like Dust Palace. Three smaller bosses is an interesting change of pace from the usual one huge lumbering jerk boss at the end of most strikes. The juggling of different elemental shields is a fun deal if you have a fireteam that are coordinating that in advance.

Both are graet, I think people hate them because you can't really cruise through them. I started to really appreciate them over the past week. Especially the Undying Mind level design.

Yep, I like those 2 strikes too. I think people don't like them because they can't be speed run.
they can be done pretty darn fast if everyone is on board

What else can make his health bar red? I know the frame shield does.
What mode? I don't play Control anymore because I have over 200 wins and I need to others grimories.

1) Keep it on topic.
2) Adhere to the ToS
3) I haven't come up with a 3) yet.
We drift topics now and then and that's to be expected and fine. I chimed in the other day because I noted the swings away from Destiny discussion (and onto Bloodborne, in that case) where getting longer and more frequent. The mod team has had some discussions lately about how community threads can tend to drift into chatroom territory when left to their own - a close knit group that chats together about anything a large proportion of the time, rather than keep the threads about the topic at hand. My post was intended to help steer this thread away from that direction.
My suggestion about OT title discussion is just that, a suggestion as me a dude on the forum, not a decree of mod policy. I think it's a little too inward looking to go on about for pages, but that's just my opinion. Sorry for not being clear on that point.
everyday math is referring to her internet connection status.
if it's kosher to divulge some of that discussion, why is this frowned upon? Was allowing future threads of a certain activity level to remain on gaming side for longer discussed?
I see, haha. don't always know how to distinguish between one kind and the other

I don't think it's too large either. The majority of the people that play this game do it for the pve. It seems that pvp was somewhat of an afterthought. Of course they are always adding more pvp content, but pve still feels like the main focus for Bungie.

Also, as a suggestion, let's dial down the thread title discussion. It's fine (and fun!) in small doses but the last 1,000 posts of a thread shouldn't be about it. Let the OP poster pick it and we'll all cope.
New OT is already made, ready and waiting.
Banana lag comes and goes, doesn't seem necessarily based on my connection bar. Sometimes it's green and lag is atrocious, sometimes it's red and relatively fine. There typically seem to be 1-3 players in a match that are practically untouchable and teleporting around like crazy, different people in our team might see completely different things.
I have no idea all the technical details of Destiny's networking, but there can be a ton of wacky stuff in PvE and PvP. Crucible is more consistently frustrating but a lot of that is based on how much tighter the timing windows are relative to PvE. Really annoying to constantly trade with enemies because they can still kill you for several hundred milliseconds after they should have died.
Real life gun control, and yeah we were also laughing about the irony while playing an FPS, lol. It was a good, spirited debate. Apparently gun control is less controversial than OT titles.
I wasn't asking you to tone down your opinion, only your responses to me. It was a sincere request, not intended as a reprimand. Also not intended as holier-than-thou, I fully acknowledged my reaction was based on my own personal sensitivity. I'm not sure what vulgar nonsense you're referencing, but I would say something if it was directed negatively at fellow DGAF'ers. I've had small "run ins" with lots of regulars if I felt something they posted was harsh to other members. I'm not the DGAF-Niceness-Police, just someone who has a probably excessive emotional investment in the community.
Like I said, our unfamiliarity was the root of the miscommunication. I never expected you to know how sensitive I am, which is why I tried to explain it in (what I hoped) was pretty non-combative language. I can tell from your escalated response that we don't understand each other well, which is fine. Please PM if there's anything else on your mind, unless you'd prefer to post here of course (although any responses I'd make would be PM'ed at this point).

I agree, but people just want to skip sections and get to the boss.

Unless you try to stick it to a Hunters, something it bounces and dont stick or dont kill the bladedancer in its initial animation but dies if you put the aditional solar damage
Again I'm sorry if I hurt or offended you personally as that was not my intention nor was my negativity directed at you personally. No PMs necessary.
EDIT: Also, I meant to say I will keep this in mind going forward and try NOT to ruffle your feathers in any future responses.
Has this list of best new vendor weapons been discussed? What is everyone eyeing?
I think when TDB came out I was too focused on using my marks for armor, especially because I was a forever-29. I'm going to buy some weapons this time.
Definitely got my eye on Deadshot Luna (New Monarchy) and Vanguard's 55A- ALLFATE and One/One Synesthete. Crucible hand cannon looks nice too. It'll be interesting to think about this stuff now that we can reroll these weapons. I want Red Hand also, but I feel like ascending some of my staple hand cannons (Hawkmoon, FB) will be a priority.

I mean, lots of Undying Mind's Descendant/Precursor enemies that don't give glimmer can be skipped.

I mean it doesn't make much of a difference in the grand scheme of things, but for some reason it drives me crazy that only that strike doesn't give glimmer.

are we doing a HoW launch thread next week? or just a bump of the current thread?

But that's t thing, I like doing the whole strikes without skipping parts. I find it a lot more annoying leaving and having to watch loading screens to get another strike than just powering through. I guess I'm just weird that way.

come on you know my PSN name
Come on DGAF GROUP HUG
That strike gives more glimmer than any other. Only the enemies on middle section (most of which can be skipped) don't.
I like whatever, chaining supers and killing every living thing there is fun too. Just wish those gave glimmer
Yeah, I've seen bad lag in Crucible despite green bars all around, but this weekend (Friday/Saturday) was weird. Green bars in orbit and matchmaking, then yellow/red for almost everyone as soon as the match started. It didn't SEEM super laggy; a few instances of random guys teleporting around or running in place.
I was more asking if this was a widespread issue other people experienced this weekend, because I hadn't seen this particular behavior in Crucible before.
Has this been posted yet? Nightfall/weekly heroic won't be up next week for a few hours between reset & the time HoW releases.

This just confirms that Nightfall will be one of the new strikes.
Hopefully it isn't locked like Will of Crota was till you beat the story missions.

how do you skip the middle section. I dont even know what the triggers are for the next section. I just kill things until the game says I can move on. I really dont understand the pacing of the strike. granted I dont run it that often if I can help it.
oh, it will be

More glimmer than Ommigul? I haven't paid too close attention, but Omnigul just has soooo many adds, the glimmer just piles up.

it will be locked as surely as the necrochasm sux. i'm
not
Really? OK, well I feel dumb. Either way it drives me crazy that the ones on the stairs don't and I assume it was intended that way for some dumb reason.
Somehow doubt they'll let us jump right in. I'm guessing it'll be a similar quest line to be completed before we can NF. I don't really mind tbh except they force us to unlock per character. I still can't run Will of Crota on my Hunter unless I join a team.
It should be like second subclass: unlock on one character = unlocked an all the rest.
Yeah, I usually feel like I see the best returns on glimmer from Omnigul and I'll run any old strike when it comes up in the playlist.

Thanks dude, much appreciated! As always, I <3 DGAF.
In the spirit of good vibrations, here's something we can all support: Phaethon getting pwned by supers.
Golden Gunned up close:
Bladedanced in the butt:
Titan Smash turns him jelly:
So are we doing Nightfall as well?
That's what a lot of us expected. They are basically just delaying the reset until 10am PST.
Yeah pretty much, it's what I figured they'd do all along.
