Started it last night. I only watched the first episode, and thought it was a bit disjointed. That said, I've already decided that there is enough to like, and will keep watching as long as it doesn't totally shit the bed.

Yeah, absolutely! See you guys in a few hours then.
Also PoE 28.
I'm only about 6 episodes in, but I'm hooked. Worth continuing at least, I'd say.

Yup, do strikes and pvp until you can get yourself to level 28 or so. Should be able to buy a piece of gear from the vanguard/crucible vendor to help ya out with all the marks you get.
Then try one of the raids (normal vog, or normal crota), ascend some gear, run PoE, get more etheric light, PoE vendor armor.... and you'll be 34 on no time
I tried watching it but couldn't get into it. I have too many shows i watch right now anyway
Yes! Someone agrees! (I haven't finished it yet though)
Haha, yeah brother + sister now, I guess.

Queenbreaker's wrecks on Nightfall and if you have boots with special ammo and a chest piece with fusion ammo, they stack and give you over 120 shots.
Just mentioned on Goth's stream but apparently people were final rounding twice with their Thorns in ToO! via a Glitch.
I'll research reddit for confirmation ofcourse.

Guess what shader looks better than Revenant?
The Hanged Man!
Just got it, hot damn does it look sexy on the titan or what!
Also, PSA:
This is just my experience and may be RNG like everything else, but if you have a faction package, open it in the tower, not the reef.
Every time I open a package in the reef, I get nothing but a mote of light or strange coin.
Every time I open it in the tower, I get a drop, even if it's just a piece of armor. Got all my DO shaders from tower.
So, give it a try...

I think you're just lucky with rng haha. My last two dead orbit packages opened in the tower were nothing but motes. :/
Oh god. Please no.
3/5 of my last NM packages have been single motes in the tower. You're just lucky, Mr. 2 exotics from the PoE chest.
I can't complain too much, got Nefertiti AK and Cleopatra AK shaders in the space of a week.

Yeah..... there's a way to glitch yourself to have 2 final rounds basically. Found out over the weekend from some players I was doing trials with that told me about it. We didn't use it, cause it's super lame....
Was hoping this wouldn't become wide spread news....
Have to agree here, I have revenant but I use hanged man & the nowhere shaders on my titan
Sexeh!

Edit: I see you found the vid. They need to make the final round perk dissappear if they can't control it properly.

There's a glitch that let's you get final round as your first shot with Thorn. It has something to do with swapping weapons when spawning.
Edit: ah you found the video. They explain it pretty well, and yes, it's ridiculous haha.

Awesome! Didn't realize they would stack.
Stick around for other reset shenanigans, we don't bite; I promise. Well, I can't speak for everyone.
Welp that's trials done for the week already then

Sorry Rob, still at work for another 4 hours... >_<
Great. Though you missed Iron Banana, some EL...
Prepare to carry us through arc lightswitch! Muahahahahah
Wait, what?!? When did that happen? So what should I focus on reforging, HB or LGH?
Congrats, I have both revenant and hanged man, but the one I really want is bittersteel.

We were both first timers last night
Thanks once again to Unstable and Wicked for carrying me awesome experiences
Still wish I was atleast somewhat helpful

haha, I'm feeling the same way after finally getting picked by stable in his stream for a carry last night. I came so close to getting there every single weekend but never made it until now. I really enjoy the elimination style of play and I think it fits destiny very well. I just need to get out of some bad habits I picked up in 6vs6 control mode.
Thanks again stable and fig for the help!
Per Gutz31's recommendation, got me a Deadshot Luna SR1 with the following roll (after a reforge).
Full Auto
Firefly
Decided against explosive rounds due to the hit on stability. My options are:
High Caliber
Armor Piercing
Feather Mag
What say you DGAF? Will use primarily for crucible and anything that doesn't require a burn .. cause it doesn't have one.

I got carried to Mercury too. It was pretty awesome.

We might be making a big deal out of it, but I did feel that sometimes I was getting two shot by Thorn. I see that this might be the reason.

Bungie pls. I had some of that crap happening to me in Trials.
That's awesome man, I can only imagine. One of these days I'll finally get to Mercury. Regardless, I still enjoy the hell out of trials.

Yep. And in Iron Banana. That bug either needs fixed, or that perk needs removed entirely from Thorn.
And this is coming from someone who uses Thorn regularly

Me too, I was so bad, unstable and wicked may have dislocated thier spines. I don't get it. I'm decent in 6v6
Too is a way different beast

So that happened to me also, I kept getting pissed, now I will make sure to go to the tower.
Got an Ash Factory last night with Hard Launch/Clown Cartridge/Javelin/Grenades & Horseshoes after a few rolls. Try for triod or just hope CC procs a lot?
Thorn is a two shot even without Final Round though. The difference is in dying right away or being killed a little slower from DoT. But unless you're a Warlock with max armor wearing The Ram, 2 Thorn headshots will always kill you.
I think it's kind of indicative of how ridiculous the current state of thorn is that that final round glitch doesn't really even look that bad, in the grand scheme of things. It's already a two headshot kill most of the time. Having to go in and out of the UI after every engagement to get a chance to turn that into a two body shot kill if you land your very first shot out of the gun isn't that insane. Still needs to be fixed and quickly, for sure, but thorn does a good enough job of ruining crucible with or without that glitch.
