Why does every great primary weapon in the game drop from VoG Hard? Why do you hate me Bungie.

There's only 3 primaries exclusive to Heroic Vault of Glass:
Fatebringer (the best primary in the game, hands down)
Vex Mythoclast (seen better days, not too useful in PvE, still good in PvP)
Praedyth's Timepiece (hot garbage pulse rifle)

Some of the best weapons in the game can drop from Normal VoG, like Found Verdict (the Captain Killer), Praedyth's Revenge and Corrective Measure.

If you go wipeless through PoE 35, they should open the Queen's Throne for us. This is where she awaits for us with her big chests; I mean treasure chest.

It's gonna be the douche in disguise. Just watch.

Skolas chest should not require a key OR the chest if opened by a key should give loot to everyone cuz it's a team effort with that stupid taint BS.

Disagree about Vex, it still melts enemies in PVE. PVP is where it's been less useful now. I used it in NF this week and it cleared up all enemies so fast with Solar burn.

Really good for the new Specialist modifier

When is Bungie going to open up these secret areas of the Reef which Deej mentioned in his Reef reveal video?

Mythoclast is MVP in a couple PvE instances, Round 4 PoE 35 is a great example.

Was thinking earlier that what the game really could of used was trophies for each expansion pack. I'm not one to hunt down trophies, only games I really like, but a few additional challenges not tied to loot or anything would be fun. No wipe PoE 35. No Death PoE. Beat a PoE in under 30 minutes. Bunch of ToO stuff would be neat too.

As it stands now I've got my last cipher for the Dregs Promise and then I've done everything in the expansion I've cared to do x3.

I think the one door they stood by when he mentioned this was open and where Xur was located when he was in the Reef.

Yeah I've been using the Vex when Specialist is on but really, it's very rarely going to be your best option for the exotic slot in PvE. I actually don't think I ever use it outside of Specialist, and even then I sometime go with Invective for ammo conservation.

 

[raindoc]

~45 mins = about 120 MBytes. I can live with that. connection is working really well, green bar, no lag. Will try some crucible tonight. If it works good enough, are there still lists for ToO?

Very true, the only time I use my vex is to clear the fusion bounty.

Need to stretch HoW for 3 more months. As soon as player counts fizzle out some.

Is there an eBook with all the Destiny grimoire all in the same place?

Or rather, what is the easiest and most convenient way to read the grimoire

It usually works but the problematic thing about mobile internet is not pings but packet loss.
You might have low latency but you will for sure have packet loss which might cause issues for you (and others in PvP).

it does overcharge in like 30 seconds yeah, hah.

I like it during some solar burns too. Fun to use.

Still fun. Use it in NF this week and it'll take you record time. Even the explodey shanks aren't a big deal because of the fusion effect preventing them from exploding up close.

 

[LTWood12]

Sorry we couldn't get the kill for you too. I'm in to help if you're looking for another attempt soon. I know how to tell much earlier what a successful round will look like. Unfortunately having a full complement of rockets + synth backup is pretty crucial.

Yeah I REALLY didn't want to bail, but the Mrs. was ready to hang out so I had to call out. I'm going to attempt to get him 3 times this week if possible. Hate being 0 for 1 this week but I'll get him.

 

[Homeboyd]

Skolas rewards need a SIGNIFICANT boost... I'm talking something like:

Guaranteed Drops:

- Either a Fallen PoE armor piece for your class or a Fallen PoE primary with every Skolas kill
- Armor Core
- Weapon Core
- 2 Etheric Lights
- 1 Elder Cipher Bounty
- Shader/Ship/Emblem (random selection each time)
- The regular loot from the small chests, but with a guaranteed treasure key
- Higher chance at exotics from opening the main chest

This would make that shit fight worth doing (or at least... more worth it). Because let's be real... that encounter is the equivalent of e-cancer and the rewards are even worse.

Wait... Is this really a "safe zone" from Skolas?

Holy shit.

Judgements chance wouldn't be so bad if most of the weapons weren't poop. I wish the armour and weapons had their own individual Judgment chance rolls.

I tried it once and it gave me some shitty FR. Bleh

 

[Siaynoqq]

I thought skolas was a breeze this week. Go left, pop bubble, shoot gjhallahorn. He would go down either just as the first mine popped up or a few seconds after.
Had one run with a lot of issues (probably because it was like 6am for everyone), but for my three successful runs, skolas went down on the second attempt.

One thing I noticed: people crowding around the bubble is not ideal. One person being really close to the bubble while the other two go further left and right works better, even if weapons of light runs out at the end for the two further away. Safest area is a little further left, shooting through the opening in the wall. Having a warlock or two with self-revive helps a lot, too.

I got the AR last night with some garbage dreg burn. Sharded. What I wanted was a chest piece.

You'll take your 2 motes of lights and be happy!

I haven't used a single Judgement chance yet. Don't like the odds for getting a shitty weapon. It still baffles me how Bungie thought that having Shank Burn as a unique perk is a nice feature. I'm telling you guys, different parts of the team don't coordinate with each other when designing new features.

 

[silver.tongue]

We went right, two guardians went to kill servitor and we hid in the fallen cheese spot and kept firing at skolas while he cant hit us or come close to us.

He went down really fast.

I have a hard time believing that it would work...
I mean, Skolas has a HUGE schorch cannon. You'd think splash damage would kill you at least. Also, what about the mines?

I'll take your word for it tho.

You say this now, but you'll love the crap out of that perk when we fight a giant shank boss in the next expansion!

 

[rasengan1337]

Yo casmith, hit me up sometime this week if you want to knock this out. Just let me know what time works for you, I'm not planning to be on a lot until ToO launches Friday but I'll definitely be around and available to run it whenever.

depending on the time, can i join you guys?

 

[Namikaze1]

PoE 32 twice anyone?

 

[Daemul]

I've gotten to the stage where I'm now 100% convinced that people in PvP are intentionally playing badly instead of just being shit. When I'm playing a Clash match on Pantheon, and I see people running straight through the middle lane to try and get to the other side of the map without even first slowing down to check there's no sniper waiting on the other side, promptly getting their head blown off, and then they trying the same move again and again with the same results each time, it just strikes me as impossible that anyone can be that inept.

I once got a message after a Clash match on Asylum from a teammate asking me how I had only died three times during the entire match when everyone else in the team had died at least 12 times. I replied to him, "Did you see me running out to the middle of B spawn and exposing myself to the enemy team waiting by the C spawn stairs with their sniper rifles? No? Exactly". Player continuously exposes himself to the enemy, wonders how he dies more than me. Bruh.

When people eventually start to pay attention to where they're going in PvP, the amount of needless deaths might actually start to decrease. LOL, who am I kidding, people are never going to start paying attention to their surroundings

Wow, does that spot really work? We sat in the room to the left of that last week to take him out, which worked pretty well for controlling adds, that spot looks like even easier mode if it works consistently.

Looks good on Titans with th PoE armor too.

Agree with this.

It's a waste of time running 35 if you don't have a key tbh.

Even then, the chance of getting semi decent loot is shit.

ToO and PoE 35 should have the same loot tables, and if they already do, the chances of getting said look should be higher.

Took us a bunch of tries to down Skolas last night (my first time running a 35). We ended up using this strategy to finally take him down.

I'll take your word for it tho.

95% of his shots will detonate before it hits you so no damage at the cheese spot. We did this method last night but had our titan bubble to the right of the cheese spot and fire from there. We did that so that skiolas would be switching between us

 

[Namikaze1]

Totally agree with this!

It looks damn amazing!

I disagree. It doesn't look that good to me.

Ok so this is our fourth week of HoW, is it just me but I feel like I'm slowly getting burned by this expansions content. Comparing it to TDB I remember going strong with the raids for well over 2 months in and I still wanted more. For all its critique Crotas End was a lot of fun. I really wish we would get some new 6 player team content. Btw Noomi what time is the drunk raid at ?
