Ridiculous decision to lock elemental primaries behind the hardest mode of PVP. Elements are irrelevant in pvp.

Yeah I kinda agree with this. At least they could've made elemental primaries a guaranteed drop from PoE35 to compensate PvE only players. On the other hand it is nice to see a reward that seems to be worth it from going flawless. Anyway considering the amount of carrying this awesome community can do, everyone should have an elemental primary soon

Wat. A Solar Hand Cannon?

Yessir, the Jewel of Osiris adept version with solar. Ofcourse it dropped right after I ascended VoC but I can't complain.

So interesting point to note. The trials gloves have heavy weapon reload speed. Could be very useful for the current Skolas strat.

The horn already has fast reloading.

I just got one strange coin, six relic iron, and one mote from a PoE 32 run.

I just don't know, man.

It can roll with any of the three elements. Everyone wants solar because it's the first of its kind.

This beauty:



All PVP perks though.

To hell with everyone that says the Thorn bounty is easy. I'm doing it with Word of Crota, Swordbreaker, and Truth, and it's so fucking hard. And I'm good at PvP! I'm just terrible with hand cannons and can never get a kill with WoC. My K/D drops dramatically. :-(

Word of crota is pretty lame for pvp, try to get most kills with special and heavy.

The pvp is where it's at, stupidly enough.

Bungie dropped the ball on PvE.

I've been playing trials with a 32 warlock alt, it's fine you know... thought I'd get wrecked. But using maxed out TLW and other decent weapons gives me more than enough wiggle room.

I've seen it, just didn't know it came in different elements. Goddamn. This hurts.

Much thanks to Unstable for my first 9-0!! That was exhilarating beyond belief!

No Unstable or Zoba version on XB1?
I think it is pretty doable without a PvP pro, as long as you play as a team. I did it with 3 teams and I won't consider us PvP pro's. All that we had was great communication, nobody rushed in alone and we kept our distance from shotguns.

Just spam a special weapon with void. No one ever picks up special ammo in regular crucible.

 

[Sentinalprimus]

Oh yeah I know that, should have clarified. The real question is will it stack with that, and be somewhere between the current reload and the reload from War Machine for defenders.

Believe it or not, I did this part with Atheon Epilogue. It was hell itself. Bungie should give a gold medallion or something.

Sorry raindoc, I know how it feels I went 9-2 then didn't even complete the full 9 the 2nd time.

I tried ToO and enjoyed it, but I got my ass handed to me naturally. Now that I've completed all the PVE stuff and only have the treasure key/etheric light RNG grind ahead, I kinda feel like my honeymoon period with House of Wolves has come to a sudden end.

I would say get Unstable to carry you, but there's no fun in that. There's rotating arenas next week I suppose, and new bounties.

Pretty much nailed exactly how im feeling.

 

[Agent_Tiro]

Is there any good pvper who can help me out in ToO. I'm slightly above average pvper but massively struggling to make it to five wins. I'm currently sat on a card that is 4/2. I just want the armour, and if really lucky the weapon drop.

blade of crota respawn timer is bugged or what? these things don't want to appear at all on cosmodrome. I have two Erin bounties that involves them.

 

[kittens]

I tried that, but I just wasn't getting enough kills that way. I switched to Control (was playing Skirmish before cause it's my fave PvP) and that's going better, but still slow.

I've played with mostly good folks so far, but haven't had much luck. I played five matches today and didn't get a single win. Got some armor drops to get me to 33 at least!

They were removed in the update. Have to farm them on fist of crota mission if you have TDB

They don't spawn anymore. Just do the first DB story mission on Earth. Takes like 5 mins

I was trying to do the one on the moon the other day and he never came. Wondering if the new wolf thing is stopping the sword of crota from spawning now.


Edit: above

 

[xplicitone]

The treasure key grind is probably the worst part of the expansion. After the amount of work it took me to kill Skolas the first time, I can't do that without a key for my other 2 chars like I originally was going to.

Tons of people feel the same way. My biggest disappointment is the dozens of new weapons being worst than the ones I'm already carrying. I'm expected to do all this new content to get these new shiny weapons but what's the point other than just to get them?

Any Quests involving the Blades of Crota you can do by simply loading up the Fist of Crota mission on Earth. Saves a lot of time.

Switch to clash or rumble, there are way more randoms in there than in control. You may have better luck.

 

[raindoc]

Fuck this moving stuff. I got time for another try: I'm offering my soul to anyone who takes me to Mercury today.

 

[Zocano]

Zoba, don't want to keep anyone waiting, just wondering if we're gonna go soon. Sorry for being pushy, just with girlfriend watching shows and don't know when I'd have to stop to actually play.

 

[Sentinalprimus]

Currently the emblem/shader/ship from Skolas' chest only drops for one character, so don't stress. Have to wait until it is fixed.

If you need one more I can do some trials

 

[Marvel]

I've only ever found one key, and it was inside a mini chest from poe. No luck with the wolf farming in explore.

what about the bounty that involves using a blade on earth to kill hive?

Oh I see, interesting. Thanks, didn't know that!

 

[EJRobinson90]

That can be done in the same mission. Kill the Blade, pick up the Sword and slash away at the thrall in the next room. Should be at least 15 Hive in there.

 

[raindoc]

what about the bounty that involves using a blade on earth to kill hive?

1st TDB story mission. kill the knight, pick up the sword, move forward. There's over a dozen thralls + acolytes and knights waiting.

EDIT: Too late.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

what about the bounty that involves using a blade on earth to kill hive?

Same mission. Kill the sword knight and then slice up the thralls and acolytes in the next room.

 

[xplicitone]

I've done about 6 hours of farming/completing Queens bounties and patrol bounties while waiting for Wolves and I've only ever had 1 key drop for me as well.

 

[Ryck]

A question for the Key Grinders, any solution to the growing collection of special weapon synths? I am starting to worry.

 

[Marvel]

Damn that's rough. You just reminded me, I've yet to do a single Queen bounty lol.

 

[EJRobinson90]

Fill up your consumables and go for key farming. Keys will go to your postmaster but the synths don't. Also having the Invective bounty would help.

 

[Siaynoqq]

Anyone willing to help get me to 7 wins? I've gotten 6 twice now and really want that summoner.

 

[rayuma]

Fill your consumables slots with everything else. The special synth won't drop.

 

[lazybones18]

since I got nothing to do Monday and I already got 9-0, I'll try to help others get to 9-0 in ToO. Will probably start in mid-afternoon

Do them, you may get a key.
