Did Crota NM and HM x 3 last night (from Deathsinger on normal), came back and checked my mailbox and I realize that got four exotics total. Plan C, Thunderlord, Dragon's Breath, and an Icebreaker in the mailbox. That ain't a bad haul for an hour and a half, even though I'm still #4evaCruxless. I think Noomi got four too.

Crux Hype!! Finally! Couldn't have come at a better time for me right before HoW! No more CE HM!

Own all XB1 weapon exotics now and only missing Lucky Raspberry. Also #ForeverNoSwordBreaker from Crota's End. Someday I'll get it...

 

[aarcane]

Got a third Vex from Atheon last night with Xbone DGAF (due to a shameful jumping failure on my part, I was just a spectator for the fight, but that's another story). Now I'm going to have to start up a second and third character. I'm thinking about going with a Defender Titan first as I've got a Helm of Saint-14 sitting in my vault, but I'm open to suggestions.

 

[Agent_Tiro]

I think I saw a video once for farming ogres. If I remember correctly, on the normal difficulty of the Shrine of Oryx mission after killing the wizard, you'll walk through a tube into an area with Fallen/Hive fighting each other and one red bar ogre. Kill the ogre and jump off the platform and repeat.

Edit - Here's the video:

Ogre farming spot

Hydra - black garden
Ogre - shrine of oryx

Both on lowest difficulty. Kill enemy, wipe. Repeat.

Here is a video with out all the BS.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2-1x0PIEJs

1 Ogre per 36/37 seconds.

Cheers people!

Hehe ... he... haha... hahaha ha.. ha. Just wait untill you use that Necrochasm.

Finished Crota 120 times ... still haven't gotten a Hunger.

 

[PrivateWHudson]

Is there some time that'd be good for EU folks? I could maybe set up an alternate time newbie thing if there was enough interest.



I still remember the hype when you pulled it out of the CE Abyss chest, good times. Nice to see you posting more again!



You are 103 actually. Sadly #101 has had to wait two days to be added since I was reset raiding/slacking.

I kinda want to make a new graphic for the list but I'm not terribly skilled at it. I saw Kadey post about doing some scrolling thing with the list, that might be an option.



Ah, that's cool. Yeah I've been "gone" since we finished the reset activities until now. I'll wait until some group wants to do legit runs, I enjoy those encounters too much to keep giving them the short stick.

page top edit: Besides you're always slacking in VoG. I mean look at this:

I'm not sure what you are looking for, but you can spruce it up a bit just in excel. Without much effort:

 

[rasengan1337]

Guardian Lord 101!

I want to thank NeoGAF

Especially DeathJR for carrying me through an annoying 2 weeks of "shut the hell up Sars, sit in the corner and wait for the drop" Crota Runs.

N0oblet for taking a lowly geared level 31 through a flawless raid.

WheelHoss for the awesome first time Iron Banner experience, we both failed misarebly and many a bad ass GAF member took us under their wing to make IB worthwhile.

Oh and a special thanks to Breezy. Your the wind beneath my wings!

Oh and Math. I will post a pic of my victory beer tomorrow.

EDIT: I forgot Fearless Leader (Sorry Kadey) It was cool of you to take some of us under your wing and add us to SEXY!

And what does one do once they get Guardian Lord you might ask...

Well simple, now I have to boot up Destiny for the Xboxone again and get Guardian Lord there.

congrats, #101!

Hehe.. yes, it's pretty bad. Mainly wanted for collection purposes.

And I hear ya... I'm around 100+ completions too and no Swordbreaker. Damn you RNG...

 

[figadapaura]

FFS Marlon. I thought he was gonna go the whole two matches without a single kill.

Why don't I ever get the Thorn using assholes on my team?

 

[Lnkn52]

I think it should look similiar to this:

 

[Lima]

Marlon is da real MVP. Such a cute blueberry.

 

[figadapaura]

lol you're welcome

 

[jem0208]

have you tried hard resetting?

Yup... Didn't do anything.

Might try reinstalling the game...

 

[DrDrizzay101]

FFS Marlon. I thought he was gonna go the whole two matches without a single kill.

I can't possibly imagine why you'd subject yourself to randoms in Skirmish. I played one match solo the other day and the 2-man team with me immediately left then the 3-man enemy fireteam would t-bag when they killed me. Fun times.

This is how it will be to carry Nami through Trials of Osiris. Is your back ready?

 

[ocean]

I'll also need some Trials carrying because that armor is fire, I need it.

Congrats, Sars! Glad I could be there and keep you off the bottom of the scoreboard during many an IB match xD

 

[DrDrizzay101]

Wow, you survived a long time lost in the dark corners of time then. Never thought about anyone staying behind in one of the portals and surviving, but it's logical. There's no wipe because of that.

Still, interesting they didn't agro on you. It sometimes seems it's line of sight, but others it feels like it's just proximity. Maybe this confirms it's line of sight.

I may have been invisible to them too, or I may have been dead and self resurrected. I don't remember..

If I can find the video again, I'll go back and check. My very vague memory is that possibly there was a weird glitch where people were joining the fireteam after switching characters and that picture happened on our very first teleport. You were already inside sitting there...? Not sure, very strange.

I'm still #4evaCruxless.

Crux Hype!!

I enjoy the timing of these posts.

Don't think that is possible, because I would have been lost in the dark corners of time.

The only other explanation I have is that I got teleported while I was sitting down on the sync plate outside, but why would it place me at that location instead of at the top of the stairs?

 

[figadapaura]

I wonder if Driz has any dirt on me.

Idk sometimes it's fun. Sometimes it's really not lol.

Also gotta practice carrying Nami when he isn't around.

My back is strong. I can do this. I will do this.

No offense to your (or my) Excel skills but I was hoping for something a little swankier, haha. I can try messing with it some more but I know there are people around here much more skilled than I would be for graphic design type stuff.

I didn't explain it very well, what I meant is that you were outside with the rest of us like normal, not that you'd gone inside on purpose. A couple people were flying from orbit after switching characters, Atheon did his first teleport... and then I saw that, lol. (edit: and yeah, I'm not sure if a third person was ported to the top with me or if you were the 3rd or what...)

Maybe I'm hallucinating the memory, I'll try to track down the video if I can.

That's the spirit. Your back is commendable, my blue lady. You'll also carry me one day, I hope.

Aaaaaah bored at work and wish I were doing PoE instead. Tuesday can't come soon enough

 

[Kyne]

Just starting the mythocast podcast as something to do at work. Wooooo.

 

[Namikaze1]

Drizzay got a first taste of this the other day.

 

[EJRobinson90]

I don't think Drizz has any dirt on me, unless he followed me around in some IB matches. In that case...

 

[PrivateWHudson]

All of GAF on my back.

Just distract them while I shoot them.

I can't deal with random 3v3/2v2 PVP. I'd rather drive nails through my balls.

 

[rasengan1337]

I dunno about IB, but in regular Crucible TTK is just too long. All of the bullshit weapons outclass it, like TLW, Thorn and the Vex. I have a Warlock with OM, that's why I got this thing. I haven't yet unlocked string of curses, I'm hoping the perk will save it. But as far as shooting goes, I don't really like it. I'm constantly spending full clips to down enemies in PVE and I can't really land headshots with it properly.

Maybe it's all about the perk, I guess.

ftfy
yes, for all exotics, even the "bad" ones, it's all about the exotic perk.

 

[ocean]

I can't deal with random 3v3/2v2 PVP. I'd rather drive nails through my balls.

Me to- wait that's a bit much. Still sucks to 3v3 with randos

 

[Bradach]

How did you effectively get a bevel without the drawing tools? I thought I was an excel pro but I can't recreate this! (sorry for the OT)

eh... goddamn thorn users

 

[xplicitone]

Nothing related but I just realized there's a go to page option on gaf haha. I could have used that a few times before.

 

[Kor of Memory]

I can't deal with random 3v3/2v2 PVP. I'd rather drive nails through my balls.

It's fun sometimes for an ego stroke sometimes. When not only do you have the entire enemy team fearing you, but your teammates are wary to stray to far from your side because they see you as some sort of super hero.

 

[figadapaura]

That is pretty great when your teammates start following you. I had a teammate yesterday that would shoot me every time he saw me as well haha.

I can't deal with random 3v3/2v2 PVP. I'd rather drive nails through my balls.

Oh, I'd never go 2v2 with a random. Too much of a crapshoot. 3v3 you're more likely to end up against a team of randoms, so it's a bit more fair. As long as the other team is bad, it doesn't matter as much if mine is lol.

 

[ocean]

This feeling. It is unknown to me.

 

[Namikaze1]

I'm not as good as I was back in September-November. This always happen when I give up multiplayer for a long time.

 

[Akiyama_AE]

On VoG HM going to Atheon 2 spots left

 

[ChanDangle]

Can anyone recommend a good legendary primary for pvp?

 

[noomi]

Nice, and yes 4 exotics for me as well.

1. Hawkmoon #4
2. Gjallarhorn #7
3. Universal Remote #LostCount
4. Patience & Time #LostCount

We'll get you that crux man, we gotta.

Also, did that Hard Crota checkpoint save for you? I'm a little skeptical about how we did that.

Planning on Hard Atheon x3 tonight, gotta stock up on them exotics shards ya know...

 

[PrivateWHudson]

eh... goddamn thorn users

There are extra small cells between the data cells that are the "background". The data cells have a light grey border on the top and left, and a dark grey border on the bottom and right.

 

[LollipoPReapeR]

The above reasons are why I hate to play any team games with randoms.

Buuuuuut, my deadlift has gone up...

 

[Bradach]

Thanks. you're good. I'm gonna try that

EDIT: When you click on the cells they appear to depress too! Nice, i'm going to have to think of a macro that I can map to it!

 

[Hawkian]

lol @ 23 pages already

Kyne and LadyKyne are out for tonight's Newbie raid- so Eidelon, you're back in if you want the spot (I'll PM You).

We then still have one space available. I need to push it back just to 9:15, I've got a dinner meeting for work that should be over well before then but just in case.

9:15PM CE Newbie Raid for tonight, the roster is

1. csbrodel
2. ArchonDragon
3. Eidelon
4. JeRkY
5.
6. Hawkian

First to call the spot gets it

Can anyone recommend a good legendary primary for pvp?

Absolutely, help me out here though, can you narrow it down to one or at least two weapon classes?

 

[figadapaura]

I'm not as good as I was back in September-November. This always happen when I give up multiplayer for a long time.

You've got a week. Get on that shit.

Watch this. Sometimes playing with randoms works out.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

I'm sure he does.

Dibs on your back once nami is done

Maybe I'm hallucinating the memory, I'll try to track down the video if I can.

Hmm, well I have no memory of this particular instance. If it helps you narrow down your search, I'm on my warlock and he was created about 2 months ago, so you don't have to look through older vids

 

[Kor of Memory]

Why does Bungie hate Void Primaries. or just Void weapons in general.

This will be the 3rd time now that Void weapons are outnumbered by the others.

Edit: Also, hey look! A Sol rocket launcher!

 

[EJRobinson90]

Can anyone recommend a good legendary primary for pvp?

If I had to pick one, I would say the vendor Three Little Words. It has Headseeker, which increases precision damage when hit a body shot first. It also has Third Eye. It is great for long range encounters, but because it shoots rather slow, you might be outgunned in close quarter situations.
