Support NeoGAF

[brianjones]

Probably been posted but! "Newly acquired Faction reward packages will no longer produce Shards"

Good changes all round!

where are the patch notes?

 

[sploatee]

Sorry sploatee. Team was full when you posted. We were already dealing with the second bounty on earth when I saw your post. Sorry I didn't respond then.

It's ok nami. You'll always be a barrel to me.

 

[Twilight Gap]

Eh, I feel that it would warrant a new thread since the HoW thread we have now is bogged with discussion about how much Comet will cost and what not. Having a fresh thread with the new info and patch stuff would be a fresh start.

am still not understanding what kind of thread were supposed to be posting. house of wolves isnt out yet and doesnt need a PSA for public events

Also that change isn't till next week

Anyone experienced the Skywatch Bounty and Urzok at the same time? Was not fun at all!

 

[RdN]

Did the Queen's event with all my 3 characters, got nothing but blue engrams and mats.

Very jealous of you guys getting keys and passages.

 

[LTWood12]

I probably will after NF/WH. We might be able to talk Dave_6 into it.

I'll be around tonight too.

 

[Lima]

Omg they buffed Thorn again. Now with extra annoying sound effects.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

A launch thread for it I suppose. The games radically different and outlining the new changes once tuesday launches will go a long way, especially since alot of them are global changes and just not HoW specific. The reveal thread just dealt with well...mostly the reveal stuff. I wont mind making it out o.o

Eh, the passages can be bought for 100 glimmer. The keys are what I'm excited about.

 

[Orthogonal]

So, if you don't have a Treasure Key you will be missing out on PoE loot? We have to grind those in advance? Hope they are reasonable to come by.

 

[brianjones]

Across one Iron Banner event, players competing in Iron Banner with more than one character on the same account will receive a reputation boost for the lower-ranked characters to reach parity with the higher-ranked character more quickly

Six additional Iron Banner bounties have been added to the bounty rotation

this sounds cool

 

[ocean]

So late to the party. Anyone wanna do all the everythings 3x in about an hour? Queen hype, bounties sound hard to solo and I'd like some company

 

[Rehsa]

Damn I have to head out of town after work, I am missing all the fun ;_; Looks like I will be grinding Sunday when I get back. Update look awesome

Also when this thread is moving fast again, hard to keep up with it at work again, missing all kinds of good stuff

 

[MildSoss]

What are the passage coins for again? To get into the ToO?

 

[SimpleCRIPPLE]

Fuck yes! New content just in time. I sure hope they don't patch the chests. I see a lot of farming in my future. I think I'll also pick up Truth depending on if it is better than Hunger of Crota.. Anyone know?

For PVP, yes. PVE? Probably not since Hunger doesn't waste your exotic slot.

Regardless, since who knows what Bungie will do to balance in the future, you might as wall just pick everything up and vault what you don't use now.

You might later.

 

[Messiek]

I'm up for 2 NF , anyone? I can't handle omnigul by myself.

 

[Orochinagis]

that's a queen's wrath item from way back when. dude must've grinded hard to get it

Try harder, was pretty easy to get. I think the ship and the special shader were the most rate drop from that event

 

[Deku Tree]

What are the passage coins for again? To get into the ToO?

To buy the buffs for ToO from brother Vance.

 

[stb]

I'll be around tonight too.

Excellent. Looks like we have 3, maybe 4 for bounties and chest farming.

You can do patrol in fireteams of up to 6, right?

 

[Akiyama_AE]

Omg they buffed Thorn again. Now with extra annoying sound effects.

Been using it for PVP yesterday it was great wonder how good it is after the buff xD

 

[Truelize]

So what's up with the crytarch not decoding some of these engrams? I got four from a chest and he won't touch two of them.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Venus is the best/fastest place to grind treasure chests.

 

[LTWood12]

Excellent. Looks like we have 3, maybe 4 for bounties and chest farming.

Nah, just 3. So I'll just check in w/ you guys tonight. Should be plenty of people around to group up with.

 

[Forerunner]

Yes, they're really not a big deal because they cost 100 glimmer lol.

 

[EJRobinson90]

Patrol is sadly only for 3 man FTs

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

No, 3 only.

Wait is this real? Who sells them?

Really ? been doing earth but after this run I will go to venus I'm on my own lol..

i know you're insisting and im not going to act like i have any authority when it comes to making them. just under the impression that we were going to put an official thread up next week and i had already stepped up to provide and maintain the info for it. its why i went a little extravagant with the reveal thread.

i might still be misunderstanding the thread you're suggesting. if it's just the launch thread/ot, i have most of that compiled with the exception of today and last week's news. if you guys can bullet point today's news and lnkn can make uodate the patch list, i can do the last banners and have the thread up tonight.

 

[Sentinalprimus]

Heavy Pikes! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex74wpYgLbo

 

[Messiek]

NF anyone? Those chests will be there forever, come help on 2 Nighfalls : )

 

[Kor of Memory]

I didn't know the new pike launched the bouncers on side step. Thats awesome.

This topic came up last week, and I think the consensus was to just update and bump your reveal thread when any new info came out. I had thought there was a TDB launch thread, but was corrected.

I don't think it was his idea. Ghaleon actually said we should post something in Gaming for House of Wolves when it launches.


Edit:

And this is just the patch. Tuesday is going to be bananas.

Speaking of which, is anyone doing a House of Wolves thread for the gaming side? One should go up day 1.

 

[Sleepy Buddha]

I'm a bit out of the loop, why are you discussing treasure chests? Are you saying there's a chance the new items drop from them?

Yea I feel like because I've been running around getting ready for my graduation tomorrow I don't know what the hell is happening in Destiny anymore.

New launch new thread!

 

[BokehKing]

Maaaaaaaan I thought this would automatically down load while at work because I had the system in standby.... Very disappointed right now


My preparing to download is stuck at 84%

There should definitely be a fresh thread for the DLC release on Tuesday. No one is obligated, but there should be one on the main forum. Following the "new news new thread" manta, DLC releases do also get a dedicated thread for discussion. I'll start it if I need to.

What are the other ways to get Queen's Wrath rep? It's 3k to level 2. o_0

 

[Twilight Gap]

okay i think i'm following now.

what needs to be done to the format of the other thread? the new stuff is already highlighted in the banners (i wanted to make these mobile friendly but there's too much info). the first post should also be reserved for all the patch notes

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

On Venus the chests seem to spawn at the various spirit bloom locations.

I need to find me one of those.

 

[Kyne]

i'm with Zoba here. Wait for the new thread.

I think it should really be pushed that most of what people hated about the game is changing in the next expansion. The grind has literally been cut in half and there are tons of reasons people who dropped the game should come back (along with newcomers starting in general).

I'm not sure what you have in mind for the thread Zoba but I hope there's a "REASONS YOU SHOULD PLAY" section that highlights all of the good/new changes. This is our chance to get DestinyGAF to grow.

 

[LTWood12]

Wait is this real? Who sells them?

Actually I could be wrong. I'm not sure if those are the things you buy for 100 glimmer, or if those are the things you get to buy buffs in the Trials of Osiris.

 

[brianjones]

did the daily skirmish

got 2 blue engrams, another blue item, mote of light and a passage coin

not bad for 1 match

 

[xVaalbarAx]

I don't think I've ever seen so many people in one area in patrol this is awesome.

I'm going to have to create a new post to continue the patch notes. I'm over the character limit.

a Q & A section would be great. I think Hawkian would be better suited for that though.

We had something similar happen in Forgotten Shore, the Wolves decided to drop at the same location as a target from a public event... We killed the first wave of Wolves, killed the PE target and surrounding mooks for the hell of it and waited and waited... No more waves of Wolves spawned. Yaaaay.

Luckily it only glitched once on us, rest of the bounties worked perfectly.
