Anyone wants to team up for a quick PoE 28 run? Just need 46 rep points to get rank 1 on my Hunter and turn in this Token of Judgement for one of the cloaks.

It's a raid style fight they tried to fit into a horde mode that just isn't fun.

I only caught the end of Datto's non-burn first clear but if I were to propose changes to make it more in line with the rest of the trial's difficulty, I'd lessen the add count and add a break between spawns like how it is with the previous round. I don't know if the adds actually stop spawning though but they did seem endless. The early phase of the fight to 50% really doesn't have any sense of add management.

Knowing Bungie they'd probably put even more of them.

Is doing PoE 34 with a 33 character advisable?
Click to expand...

All my 3 34 runs were made with a full team of 33's. Round 4 gets scratchy. Although I never tried it there is a cheese for it if the team is struggling too much.

Cool



Anyone willing to take me through PoE 34? I have a warlock and a Titan to put through it now

I would love but will need to go in 30mins +/- . If you still have a run to do in like 4-5 hours I will gladly help.

Will be looking for a ToO team for this evening around 5pm eastern.

Who wants in?

Our motivation will be to imagine all of our enemies are Xur.

I'd like if Xur randomly came running into a mission and we had to keep hitting him like the treasure imp from golden axe. Engrams and shards could pop out of him whit each hit. Happy times

Not even worth it. It's literal trash. I'm actually disappointed that Bungie thinks that a key with like, a 2% drop rate needs to be farmed in order to be "rewarded" for the level 35 arena is a good idea.

Bungie is stupid.



Done, see ya later today~

Cool. Will change our start time to 6pm for you. That work ok?

Yea, particular disappointing for the launch of HoW. At least sell one new Exotic

Also out of 4 engrams I got the Ram and two Eternal Warriors.

My opinion has not changed, Bungie and Xur are trash.

Deffo! I get off at work 530 EST but I should be on 10 +/- minutes within that time.

This is exactly what pisses me off the most about this. Bungie always makes bullshit decisions. I mean who is the goddamn idiot who had this idea? It's fricking ridiculous

I've been looking online for a while, but can't find a list of everything you can buy with Motes of Light. I'm sitting on 50 and wonder if I should blow them on two Exotic Helmet Engrams (only have the Skullfort, which isn't even the Titan spec I use) or save them for (insert other purchase). It looks like they are used at the Speaker to buy vanity items too?

Anyone know of a quick list of all the garbage you can buy for Motes of Light? I know they're used for reforging, but I've really got no gear to reforge at the moment and would rather get it first, then worry about reforging.

The reward for PoE 35 is not the chest, but the guaranted cores / etheric light.
It either allows you to buy the armor and weapon of the week, or take your chance at this slot machine thing to get stuff that is not on sale at the moment. I really like this design, the problem comes more from the fact that the boss is stupidly difficult for Hornless people. It's HM Crota once again.

Is there something else I'm overlooking when it comes to shotgun stability? It only reduces the recoil and nothing else right? Shotguns also have target acquisition right?

MrMuscle said:
This might be a controller issue as well. I have a launch controller and I have this problem and it makes me draw parallels to Helldivers where i couldnt use any of the machine guns because they wouldnt fire properly. As discussed here http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1004707
Click to expand...
Thanks for the information! I wasn't aware of this issue, I've already tried to use another controller but that was also a launch one. I guess I'll have to buy a new controller later today.

I think I'm gonna just do another PoE 34 or 32 later today and take a break until reset. Wanna dig into Witcher 3 for the long weekend.

Yup. Completely stupid.

Oh sure, the people who managed to farm 20 keys before HoW launched are probably happy(Except for losing that key from the story mission), but it pretty much means that they're set for the next few weeks in terms of rolling the big chest and actually getting rewarded from Skolas(When me and my group did it last night, Skolas didn't drop shit), compared to every normal joe who can't or wont' spend their time farming.

Out of over 100 chests or so(Granted doing the chest trick, getting 2-3 loots per chest) out of all my 3 characters doing the bounty each day Pre-HoW and then some, I've only gotten one. RNG is going to RNG, but that means that the drop rate is extremely low, and Bungie being Bungie didn't say 'HEY SAVE A KEY FOR THE LEVEL 35 ARENA LOL K'.

Good god Bungie is stupid. Bar-non, like I've said before, they took 2 steps forward, 20 back.

There is a shader/icon/ship/whatever else I'm missing reward for PoE 35. Unique to PoE 35. You'd have a point, but this stuff is locked behind the chest. And it's not random, it's a 1-time get for said chest across your account.

So yeah, Skolas is trash along with Bungies design.

I think I'm done for now...

I spent 297 motes, I got 12 exotic shards, and two HoW exotic helmets.

Anything good about the Titan exotic helmet?

Really enjoying HoW, its re-invigorated my love of Destiny.

Ran the new NF, the only guy in my regular fireteam who already has a Gjallerhorn.....got a second Gjallerhorn. Much emote!

I'm enjoying the PoE too, although I've only done it at level 28 thus far. Got Patience & Time out of the big chest, which was ok I guess. Everything else has been lots of pink legendary weapons....not found any Etheric Light yet though.

EDIT: Balls, top of the page. Pressure to do something worthy! Arrrrgh

Woo! more new bees through the vault! :D Nothing like a good Atheon kill, had a nearly full crew of legit first timers with me tonight.

This thread isn't long for this world, is it...
Click to expand...

Yeahhhh.

I want to give a huge shout out to Hawkian. Us newbies really appreciate what you're doing for the community. My girlfriend most of all was very impressed with the entire thing. She doesn't have a GAF account so I'm thanking you on her behalf.

Hope to see you in the next newbie raid!
