I think the one thing I hate about trials is the lack of sportsmanship. I know it's a video game and it shouldn't bug me, but when a team wins at trials do they really have to teabag and dance after winning? None of my teammates do it the final round or after winning but to rub it in. Just annoying to me that people do it after the match is over knowing you will probably never have to face them again.

And please let it be known that I don't try at this game. I don't ever want to be accused of it. I don't use cover or the best weaponry. I use only what I deem to be legitimate weaponry and tactics as found in my own personal rules of engagement. Those who do not shall be branded the tryest of hards.

What's head glitching?

I'm with you mostly, up until the end. I don't thing carrying is very common at all.
Got a matador 64 last night with aggressive balistics, rangefinger, reinforced barrel (lower stability more range) and final round. Is shot package that much better than rangefinger that I should be rerolling this?
I've gone through probably 1200 weapon parts since HoW came out re-rolling various weapons and ended up with probably 2 good rolls, and a lot of average rolls I've settled with just to move on with a weapon. I was so keen for weapon re-rolling....I'm going to be on the street begging for weapon parts soon.

How about the ones that find an exploit and that's all they do like the guy who uses final round or the one that hides around corners and shotguns people. The more PVP I've been playing I'm noticing a lot of people like that. Don't understand what fun they get out of doing that

I wouldn't mind doing a run later before GoT if you're free. Haven't done any trials yet this week.

Everybody's on that Mercury train, while I'm just sitting here looking to get 5 wins...
After a point I realised even though i want some of those new guns i'm always gonna go back to my voc or fatebringer anyway so the armour is all I really want.
After many repeated attempts and even an Unstable carry I still haven't been yet. Once.

poking your head and weapon out from behind a wall or ramp just enough so that you can see the other player but they can barely see you. They usually have thorn or a sniper.
It's one reason why Destiny's map design is terrible. All these "head-glitch" spots encourage campy, overly passive gameplay. Bungie makes a bunch of ramps and walls with tiny holes specifically for you to peek out from. Blind Watch, Burning Shrine and Exodus Blue are some of the bigger offenders.

High velocity/blast Proximity rockets?

If you can't beat em, join em. Truth is a guaranteed kill in PvP. If you have the time, there's no reason not to switch.
Machine guns have been phased out in 3v3 modes. They wont be much use in 6v6 either if you're playing a team running Truths.
Whoa ToO brings out the best of some players it seems, the PM's I'm getting contain some pretty vulgar stuff. Of course, you can always count on getting some hate messages when playing online but I've never had it happen in Destiny. Whether you win or lose most of the times you'll get some shit thrown at you.

They really need a better system for the faction shaders/ships.
I got one yesterday and I've spent so many motes and weapon parts re-rolling to get a good roll but I swear machine guns must have terrible options because I can't seem to get a good roll without a useless perk.
I'm mostly looking for Aggressive Ballistics, Hidden Hand, AP Rounds/Casket Mag, and then Crowd Control or Feeding Frenzy.
Now that IB is done for me I can be more liberal with my glimmer.

Grenades and horseshoes on a legendary rocket launcher without tracking is very effective. Just shoot it in the general direction of your enemies and you're good lol

I can come..logging in now. Psn is kinezo
Or the one who switches out Thorn for Truth in the middle of the game to pick up heavy ammo.
There is no shame in this one. Its a good strat. You have to make good use of your gear if you want to succeed against people doing the same thing to you.

Took me 49 ranks for it to drop, I gave up on it and then BOOM, dropped. Honestly, it looks really shitty on the PoE Hunter armor...
Still looking for that dead orbit faction ship though.
The ToO RL has this perk, I tend to try and estimate where a player is going/landing and shoot the rocket in that general direction.
Which speaking of... Should I be using the more velocity or more blast radius perk?
PrivateWHudson
Member
I have my own rules of engagement as well. I'm too lazy to switch gear, so I just spent my time rolling a high blast radius launcher with Grenades and Horseshoes. Also, I'm a habitual re-loader, so the only time I get to use my final round is when they keep popping in and out an run all of my ammo down. At that point, I figure they deserve it.

Pick me!
Yo nooms, do you still need to do one more ToO? I'm looking to go through on my Warlock for the gloves and maybe the Gold Tier reward. I've done several 9-0s but I'm not super dying for it.

Agreed... I'll post a picture of my hunter with revenant and PoE gear in a bit.... Yuck!

Does 230 rep per win in IB sound right with it being a second character (have one at rank 5), plus the buff, plus shader/item/emblem
At least hunters have some of the coolest armor/class items.
Sincerely,
A warlock tired of Bungie's obsession with lopsided robes.

Yeah. And something like 500 per bounty.

Hey dude, yeah I would like to try for a flawless tonight or tomorrow. I was trying to team up with zewone and his buddy, so if that doesn't work out I'll hit you up. I don't mind helping you out getting to 8 wins.
