Lol funny seeing this posted after Homeboyd's post.

RNGesus blessed me today

 

[Kor of Memory]

so guys is b.net play time right? damn doesn't feel like I've played 8 days :O

b.net is actually less accurate in the other direction.

B.net doesn't take into account any time spend in Orbit. So you've actually been playing more than what they're showing.

I think DestinyTracker.com or DestinyStatus.com shows your actual time playing.

Sigh.

It's just ... the combination of a weekly timer and a low (one in six, maybe?) drop rate seems unnecessarily frustrating.

 

[BokehKing]

Not sure if I should be happy about the boost to treasure game or upset of the loss of the meta game of hitting the chest as much as possible, essentially sparrow racing

Let's just say that so far, I have gotten the value of 18 full-priced games from Destiny

Sparrow racing, and the rush of finding the chest was most of the fun.

I fully expected this. Higher chance on keys + chest hoarding would be out of the question. Its like making purples guaranteed legendaries but keeping 1.0 drop rate and loot cave in tact.

But it was absolutely fun to try to race to the chest 4 times.

I'll try again. Looking for Nightfall. PSN ErnieMcCracken

I can join you guys in like 15?

 

[Collateral22]

Didn't play IB last time, Can anyone tell me how the weapons work? The two that are in the vendor, are they the only two that can drop or will things like Felwinters Lie become available? Or can they drop after a game?

3 Weekly NF's and no etheric light - Homeboyd stole mine (He did get the most kills)

Spoiler

I did get The Last Word, Universal Remote and Hard light though.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

I cannot IB anymore, I was expecting to be revived.
First map was Pantheon than Anomaly 3/4 times with some taste of Exodus Blue, all good fun.

Got Pantheon 3 times...and that laag

 

[SimpleCRIPPLE]

I've done three NFs every week since the launch. No etheric light.

In fact I haven't been able to get a single etheric light yet.

Prison 34 is guaranteed 1 light and very doable at 33. Find a group on GAF and get'er done.

 

[Frenden]

We're still at two, so I'm thinking so!

 

[TheTylerDurden]

Ready for IB around 5-6pm!
(eastern)

 

[WheelHoss1]

Did the IB reset trick and snagged 2 free Etheric Light.

Feel free to remove me from your Friends list.

 

[Ken]

I have Jignxs as a friend already so I can just join you guys through that.

 

[X-Frame]

So would everyone say that this week's Level 34 and 35 PoE are the easiest yet?

I'll join on jignxs in a minute or two.

 

[KyleP29]

is IB broken, playing with randoms on xbox 1, accumulated 5 coins finally win a match, my coins are gone and i still have no rep towards IB

 

[Akiyama_AE]

I'll go.

Ok

 

[EJRobinson90]

Is the lag that bad for you guys as well? Saw a couple of teams teleporting across the map but thought just bad luck. We had Anomaly maybe 3 times in a row, with 7 in total or something XD It seems my brain can't IB anymore so I might just stick to ToO.

 

[SkylineRKR]

At Rank 4 you can buy the special weapon, which is the FR. At Rank 5 the primary, which is the Scout.

After you reach Rank 3, you have a RNG chance of obtaining 2 different IB weapons after every game. Those are hand picked.

 

[Orochinagis]

What IB glitch are you talking about?

 

[E92 M3]

The IB trick in it's current form requires one to be playing before IB becomes active, correct?

3 Weekly NF's and no etheric light - Homeboyd stole mine (He did get the most kills)

Spoiler

3 E Shards

 

[Odious Tea]

Running one more NF.

PSN - rolyreyes

 

[xplicitone]

On-sale weapons: Scout rifle, Fusion rifle. Don't know their names

Sale = Gheleon's Demise and Perun's Fire.

Drop = dunno but someone said Spear and Timur.

Sweet, thanks! Hopefully the Spear can drop

Drops are always what was on sale last time. So this week it is Spear (sniper) and Timur's (HC) but they are marked with a HoW II, so they have the new perks instead of the old ones (still only 331 though). Meaning no more final round spears unless you've got an old one.

 

[SenatorBot]

Saved a spot for you, we got 5 now.

Just tell me when you're on we're gonna play one game until then.

 

[ph1l0z0ph3r]

Wow that update was huge. Great to see Bungie with such a quick response to keys.

 

[xplicitone]

We're gonna do it three times, should be real easy with an ascended Praedyth's and a Corrective Measure.

Oh I didn't think about CM... very nice. I can only ascend 1 until I kill Skola once (unless L34 drops etheric? I forget). Should actually be fun

 

[WheelHoss1]

What IB glitch are you talking about?

1. Be in orbit just before IB starts
2. Go to Tower right after
3. You still have your rank and can buy whatever your rank allows

I actually couldn't access the Tower, but I joined on Drizzay, and it was all good.

Yeah I still have a Final Round spear. Won't part with it, lol. I wonder if Bungie is going to dick it with a patch eventually.

NF was sooo much fun this week, Just equip your 365 vision, nothing else is needed.

Spoiler

Let's just overlook the failed attempt at trying to titan smash the boss!

In case you all were wondering, One nighthawk shot did 32000 damage, not sure if it was a crit or not. I think it was.

Have I got good news for you.

 

[Forerunner]

The connections are much better this time around. The majority of the players have been green bars, which is nice.

Whats the word on POE 34 and 35 this week?

I can't wait to try mine out. It's going to be the fastest NF ever.

Only 2 of us had 365 visions too. The 3rd was a 300 version.

 

[Haybro]

It sounds like folks are keen on ironing some banners tonight to chase that sweet etheric light.

I'll be looking to do IB around 8:30 EST.

 

[TheOddOne]

Well...
