Guessing ToO is going up without the Golden Gun glitch being fixed? Going to be a shit storm with that going on in every single match.
It depends on the map but I don't think the Golden Gun Glitch is going to be all that effective in Trials. Annoying to be sure, but you can certainly play around it. We'll find out in a few I guess.

First, I'll be running with my normal crew (if they're up for it) After that I'll get the normal train stuff going. Just stick around in my and be active in twitch chat. You'll be automatically entered into a raffle to win a train ticket.
I'll be there! Would love to roll with you in Trials at some point.

My wife always wonders why I have like three different screens going at a time.

I wanted a 55" TV
monitor
and then eventually said heck with it and bought a separate 24" monitor.

So now I have a 32" playstation-centric tv that was my monitor and a 24" monitor just for my pc. 56" all in. Lol :p
 
It doesn't force you to have to know which character is holding the items you need to transfer. It pools them together by type no matter where they are. It takes away a completely unnecessary layer.

And it's easy to create multiple predefined sets of gear and switch them to a character. You can even designate which items should be equipped as part of the loadout.

You can do that with Tower Ghost. :p

The first one seems handy, but not necessary. All the weapons are on the screen anyway.

How many total weapon slots do we have available? I'm thinking keeping the following "styles" of weapons in addition to all exotics:

Primary:
3 Auto Rifle (Shadow Price for life and Pest Control Matrix for rerolling, Atheon's Epilogue until I get Word of Crota)
3 Scout (Vision/Fang/rerollable)
3 Hand Cannon (Fatebringer + PVP HC/rerollable + Word of Crota if it ever drops)
2 Pulse (Oversoul Edict/Messenger)

Secondary:
3 Snipers (Each element, Black Hammer for solar)
2/3 Fusion Rifles (Murmur doing double duty for burns means I could get away with a void FR)
3 Shotguns (Void Matador 64, Solar Party Crasher +1, Arc Found Verdict)

Heavy:
3 RL's (Each element, Hezen or Hunger for Solar? I'm #ForeverNoHorn)
3 MG's (Each Element Corr Measure for void, otherwise favoring the slow fire rate ones)

All that means I could get away with 26 non exotic weapons and cover the gamut of weapon types and situations. It'll also give me plenty of room to hold exotics.

This sound like a solid plan? If so I will have SO MANY weapons parts...
 
Wow Bungie is going to make me grind 5K kills with this awful SideArm class for grimoire purposes.

I waited until I got the exotic in hopes it would make it easier/more fun.



It did not.

Sitting at 1500/5000 so far. :(

Edit: Best to do in a group of people so you are getting credit for their sidearm kills, as well as your own.

Like, just take 3 people into a strike playlist or something, and set a personal rule of only using Sidearms (except for the boss or something).

I agree but I imagine it'll be more annoying than anything seeing teams of Gunslingers trying to pull it off 24/7. Hope it's a good map.

Hey you two! Yeah you two! Up for ToO later?
Yeah I'm up for it. What time though? Can play for the next 2 hours or so and then I'm heading out to watch Jurassic World. We going for Flawless again or just the gear?

You playing ToO tonight? Wanna team up again?
Yeah I'm up for it later tonight.

Whats the trials map this week?

Anyone with the info
We'll see in 10 minutes.

Todd won't be on till later so I was thinking 8 PM EST but it's cool if you can't make it. God I want to see JW but won't be able to till Sunday or Tuesday. I'm gonna go for gear. Todd will most likely go for flawless.

I'll be on around 8:30 EST if you guys are cool with waiting just a bit.

I think I'll be going for just the gear as well. I want them helmets.

Let me in. We haven't played PVP together in forever.
 
Nice, thanks for the heads up! How many VIP kills do you need btw? I still have 81 to go, not that we'd knock them out at once but just curious.

6 public events, 16 strikes, 42 Salvage wins, 83 Ogre kills, 139 Hydra kills... Meh. 94 Rumble wins? Sweet mother of mercy NO.

You still up for this today?

Was thinking about starting pretty soon.

Yeah I can hop on here in 2 minutes for some runs. Fingers crossed for a smaller map, although that would exacerbate potential ashes to assets abuse.

So Thorn isn't getting a nerf, but Skolas is. Maybe the "nerf herders" title could work still.

Destiny |OT24| Nerf Herders
Destiny |OT24| Skolas: Nerfed Herder
Destiny |OT24| Skolas: Nerfed Hoarder (cause PoE drop rates aren't great)

I want to put together a little "OT Title" post later seeing as how we're fast approaching our need for a new one. I'll be changing up how I approach the titles considering the unpleasantness at the end of OT22/start of OT23. Bottom line is that I want people to keep throwing out all their creative suggestions but I'm not going to get involved with discussing the pros/cons of each one or respond to negativity about w/e I pick.

edit: oh snaps, a wild page topper appears. Time to scour the archives.

edit2: Here's something nice!

I got my Flawless with Drizzay. We are forever linked.

True that. :) Still my favorite Destiny memory, after so many hours. The video of our actual flawless run was exported into an external hard drive for now, but I did find this pic from back in November:

No idea who that "ruthlesbarbarian" blueberry with is was though, haha.

A VoG patrol party would be cool for Public Event farming. Could probably sneak in some hydras too?
