I'm kind of missing her, which is unexpected haha
And buffing the jailbreaker buff. Just seems silly, fight was completely doable but everyone bitched and spammed rockets so they nerfed it so people play it the intended way. You could already break out of the detainment shields without the buff and now since you can survive longer it's even easier. You don't even need to kill the eye anymore. Just another bullet sponge boss fight again.

Stealth nerf the exotic drop rate from the big chest in PoE or nah
Honestly, not the worst thing now with the drop rate increased. That was the only reason everyone did it in the first place.
Yah, I agree that it didn't need a nerf. People just don't like putting in effort.

Key drop increase is good for those that were having trouble with farming but I would have preferred that they left them on the rare side (1 per week guaranteed would be fine) and increase the chance of an exotic from the big chest. With this change they are still useless after you have all 3 exotic weapons.
Looks good to me, glad I beat Qodron at 34 and again today 32 legit, even with the nerfs it can still be tricky, but the extra damage on the shell means you wont have to rely on special ammo to knock em down so fast, primary weapons will work just fine i bet.
Stop it, I'm gettin all misty. Seriously though, we did pretty good, and you guys did excellent once you got the strat down. I definitely didn't kill that boss alone that's for sure.
Agreed, but I think most would agree that the reward balance between ToO and PoE is already in need of revision regardless of matchmaking changes.
One possibility is playing teams with *similar* cards to your team. Maybe similar cards to the "best card" on your team to avoid sandbagging by having a player start a new card or throw 2 rounds to help a team make that is sitting 8-0.
Did you just start and are 0-0? Maybe a "light" skill-based factor just to make sure extremes like level 32 PVE players against triplewreck.
8-0? You should only be playing other 7/8-0 teams. Again, it's portrayed as a "tournament", and a very, very small number of people should be getting to Mercury.
Regarding network-based issues, it absolutely should be a factor. It just shouldn't be the ONLY factor. Games have no business letting people >100ms even join a given certain PVP game.

I'm liking what I'm seeing in the patch notes. I hate being at work during the day while everyone is having fun. Keys KEys KEYS for everyone.

wait, it's per bounty? I thought it said only the 1st one each week
unf. Shame we only get to give this a test in the 32, but I look forward to it next time around. Course, if it doesn't have Trickle and has any semi-advantageous modifier it could now be too easy. But whatevs!
nice but I have to make it to the Lighthouse again I bet ;_;
haha
nice touches. I did an incidental Wolves patrol yesterday and had a blast with some randoms. Now there's actually a cumulative effect for the farmers among us out there even beyond the RNG. Hopefully the increase in rate as well as the guaranteed key per week will dull the complaints about the chest respawn exploit.
If nothing else, this patch is riddled with "WE'RE FUCKING LISTENING OKAY?!"
lol what! did they just re-nerf me
But you can still get the bounty from PoE 34, no?

"Kellslayer's Helm", the Titan helm you can buy from House of Judgement for an armor core this week, may be the single single shittiest armor piece I've seen.
+Strength? Check.
Reduce melee cooldown with grenade hits? Check.
Incredibly stupid looking toy airplane on top? Check.
Unfortunately, because Nightfall has yet to drop an etheric light for me, I need to wear it to hit level 34.
Fffffffffffffffff.

Guaranteed Treasure Key and increase Key drops, YES!!!
5x more ammo consumable space, YES!!!!
That's about 3-4 extra consumable spots on each char for me as well as my vault. Thank Goodness.
And by EXTRA I mean, finally having free space.
With Void Burn on Skolas and this update.... that was a good one.

Dude how many different playlists do you expect me to carry you through?
Be there in a minute.
with my 34 titan that Quodron guy was a joke. But my L34 warlock had nothing but trouble with the L32 and L34 versions. I wish Qudron got more nerfs for us common folk. I am only superhuman with my 34 Titan so far it seems

I wish the Queen primaries dropped with an element, just from PoE 35 chest. That'd be awesome. Rerollable elemental primaries. Oh god.
Kinda expected keys only on completion of the full set of queen bounties, but one bounty, sure I'll take it.

I'll play some Destiny this week because of this update. See you soon.
1st one each week. 3 guardians = 3 keys.
People here have gotten keys from getting to Queen's rank 3 so add 3 more and you get 6 this week.

If you got space count me in
Yeah there was no need for that change. People want challenging mechanics instead of artificial difficulty and then when Bungie gives it to them they moan about it. Bungie should just ignore people like that.

Reminder that you can only hold 5 keys at one time per character (+ another 5 in the vault).
They'd have better upped the exotic drop rate in the chests too.
ALL of them...
