SO... if I ascend a piece of exotic armor and get another new legendary armor piece either from PoE or a vendor I should be able to get to level 33 tonight, right?

At that point running a level 34 PoE should be a bit more manageable...

 

[Zocano]

Well there's the first key. I'll stop there I guess.

Also I might be sad to miss out on Vanquisher VIII since I never picked it up but oh well.

 

[Zakalwe]

No i'm here...

Ah sorry it was ken!

Then we're full.

Final party:

VoG Hardmode full run.

Correct.

Hey Deku, I stole another Praetorian foil

Old weapons are never coming back?

 

[Deku Tree]

No vendor. The new crucible weapons that are dropping will only be obtainable through RNG. You can't buy these.

OMG that's crazy so we have to grind RNG to hope to get this nasty shotgun.

 

[Nuszka]

Just realised my Vita needs charging, the release of HoW i will spend in work drooling over my portables console screen, decrypting grabbing fresh bounties. 5,5 hours left damn.

 

[Lima]

Just buy the Judgment from New Monarchy.

 

[sploatee]

You haven't finished Croat's End?

I've done it once before but was totally carried! I should have gotten my new Titan to level 30 by the time I'm free tonight so I'm kind of excited to try it in more detail - it just sort of whizzed past the first time...

 

[Sill4]

Any xbone peeps want to raid?

 

[Zocano]

Old weapons are never coming back?

Well seeing as how pre TDB weapons never showed up, I doubt these ones will either.

It's why I kept my Shadow Price in my vault all this time.

 

[Darth Ghandi]

Still, Crota's End armor is:
- Random, you can't chose the stats or perks
- Upgrade-expensive with a lot of bubbles and material requirements
- Reliant on Radiant Shard grind for people who have not done CE often

Versus new vendor armor which is 36 Light right off the bat requiring no upgrades, has fewer bubbles and material requirements (no ascendant or radiant anythings) and let you pick from any vendor so you chose whether you want Int/Dis or whatever.

So is it possible to skip crota gear and just try and go from 30 to 34-36?

 

[figadapaura]

Nami, I found that TLW video you were looking for before.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjOnI56S_3U

Don't know if you still need it.

 

[everyday math]

So what's the ideal shotgun perks now?

You can still sometimes get old weapons from chests in patrol.

 

[Trakan]

OMG that's crazy so we have to grind RNG to hope to get this nasty shotgun.

You can also luck out and get a Matador 64. I think it's better than the Party Crasher.

So what's the ideal shotgun perks now?

For PVP it's Shot Package, Aggressive Ballistics, and a range perk in the middle tree. Hammer Forged isn't available anymore, so you have to get one of the new ones.

 

[noomi]

I made sure to charge my vita a bit before heading to work this morning, cant.wait.

 

[figadapaura]

A sniper.

Added you (jiza88). I'll be a few minutes, just trying to finish off this moon target.

 

[MagnetoWasRight]

Was just telling Noomi we only need one etheric light plus one exotic shard to take our hunters to 33. Crota smash smash!

 

[figadapaura]

I'm not gonna be able to play until sometime around 7 pm

I won't be on at reset, either. Let's hug it out.

It's not because it has the same shit rate of fire as Felwinter. In that case why not just keep Felwinter?


You want Agreesive ballistics, shot package, reinforced barrel(increased range, reduced stability ie basically hammer forged) and depending on your play style final round or knee pads.

 

[everyday math]

A sniper.

*whines* Fiiiiiiiiiiigggggggggggggg

 

[captscience]

Treasure keys might be a guaranteed exotic? Treasure room spoilers:

I figured they were in the loot tables somewhere.

Still not much reason to try to hunt for one given the drop rates.

Well, that may be true but I don't have a Felwinter's.

Don't know if you still need it.

Math & LiK were in that video.....cool

Is.... LiK ever coming back?

 

[Phaethon0017]

I'm now more excited about opening my fat stack of engrams than I am to play any of the new content. I think I may be playing Destiny for the wrong reasons.

You and me both. I just want my Vault space back. I'm getting antsy. For the first time I was relieved I only got Materials from the chests.

5 hours of Key farming

Let's beat RNG and get a shiny new donkey! Errrrr Legendary HoW weapon!

 

[Makikou]

Hey DestinyGAF, i haven't played since TDB released and i was wondering if someone would be willing to grab me with them when the expansion launches? I'm GMT +3.

I probably have 2 lv31 characters and i've never cleared Crota.

I'm getting home in about 45mins and my PSN is Makikou72. Also, i have no idea whats new in HoW except what i just read from their site.

 

[noomi]

So here's a silly question....

I never really played much of crucible until lately but.... what's the difference between salvage and skirmish?

 

[Simonnnnn]

So here's a silly question....

Salvage you have to capture a relic and defend it whilst ghost probes it.

 

[Lima]

So here's a silly question....

The difference is salvage is boring as hell. I haven't met a single capable opponent last night and as a result the matches are lame as hell and take forever to complete.

[figadapaura]

Salvage is the Control to Skirmish's Clash.

Basically, Salvage has a separate objective besides killing the other team (capturing relics).

 

[Simonnnnn]

yeah the majority of people on it last night were just running round like idiots.

 

[Lnkn52]

Any GAFfers streaming this morning?

 

[sploatee]

Yep. I tried it with a friend new to Destiny and we got roasted. Absolutely roasted.

 

[Stacey]

ffs Bungie, why is the crucible so bloody laggy? ToO is gonna be infuriating.

 

[Simonnnnn]

Yep. I tried it with a friend new to Destiny and we got roasted. Absolutely roasted.

I was on with randoms and won most of my games but I was still pulling my hair out cause they had no discipline, just wanted to run off and shoot people.

 

[Unstable]

Any GAFfers streaming this morning?

Soon... Soon...

I must meditate for the day to come.

Spoiler

I've maybe played a little too much Witcher.
