Same, I would live to do flawless. I've run the raids plenty of times, I know my way around and I have a ton of 365 weapons. Keep me in mind please.

What (level) Playlist can hopscotch drop in?
Honestly, I'd be fine if they simply undid the buff, reducing the mag size to 6, reducing the DoT, and removing the screen effect. Thorn used to be an average gun that was amazing once you got used to it and figured out how to use it, as hand cannons should be, and I really liked it(my first exotic, yay!). Now it's just a mindless "two headshots, run away" weapon that is ruining the crucible for anyone who wants to run a different set of weapons.

Me three.
CE flawless is easy with a good Sword.
Now that Khepri's allows infinite invisibility doing Abyss solo doesn't even require any skill at all
Bridge with a full team, Legit, is both easy and fun. Play the hallway safe because tracking Void farts are dangerous. Really no rush, break the bubble then go way back (maybe camp a Titan bubble) and wait for the flying trackers to fizz out, be careful not to kill yourself with a rocket and Thralls jumping at you. Death singer: take it easy. The 30 seconds of her song are plenty of time to kill her and she stops moving while she's singing. Take the time before she begins to clean up those majors with a sniper so you don't try to DPS her with a million knights in the room.
I'd be down to help if you need a body for Flawless CE. Sadly, I'm not good enough for VoG flawless. I choke the jumping ledge under pressure

Ahh I think thats level 28, too. So I probably have to be 25 to be able to play it, maybe 26. Hmmm. Thanks!
That's 13 pm London time right?
Sounds good to me and one or two hours later I'm okay with too
EDIT: Man, I hate timezones ahah
Tons of bounties is what you need. A single "Kill ______ on Heroic" will take a few minutes and give you 100 rep - same as 4 Dragon Strikes or like a trillion lower level ones
From rank 0 to Rank 2 it should be like 3,400 rep. That's about 40-50 bounties (a lot of them are 50 rep). Done diligently this can be done in some days. Coupled with the highest Weekly Strike you can manage, your Warlock will rise from the ashes bro. Believe.

Or the Galahad?
Really hoping they aren't nerfing that in this maintenance. Didn't get a chance to try it as I never bothered leveling my Sting.CE flawless is easy with a good Sword.

I think CE flawless would be easiest too. I'm ready whenever anyone else is. Ideally School of Hawk will help me get the clan trophy and boom, Guardian Lord (after I get 7 dead ghosts I forgot about. :/).
Oh, okay. Got it.
Then it's the perfect hour for me, even if I'll probably be kinda sleepy ahah
No, not yet.
Now, if they announce they're extending the maintenance by another 6 hours, it's still not quite WoW.
But if they literally wait until the very last minute to make the announcement, then and only then, it's WoW.
And me! But don't be a wuss and do it OG style... on VoG!

Haha deaf, I'd be down to give that a shot if there was a group willing.
I'm already sweating thinking about that ledge right after the jump puzzle
Someone always biffs the jump.
Oh, so it's just a weapon from Variks shop? Guess I'll wait for it since I'm sitting on some Weapon Cores. If I knew the aim assist was so good, I would've picked it up for PVP.
Assists count, so it's really not as hard as it sounds .
Confirming that this works for me. I'll be a bit groggy until my coffee kicks in, but it's unlikely it will change my comically poor performance anyways.

So yesterday I got a drop from a Clash match that left me conflicted.
I'm currently practicing using The Last Word in PvP, and I have to say when it clicks it feels by far the most powerful primary. Still a bit hard to judge distances and decide when to ADS or Hip-fire, but that thing is incredible when you use it well. If only I was a better PvP player and better at using it...
But then the last Clash match I played just dropped a NL Shadow 701X. I already have 2 to reforge and I want to get better with TLW so I wasn't very interested... Until I saw the roll it dropped.
Full Auto, Hand-laid Stock, Firefly, on a Scout Rifle with the same impact and fire rate as Deadshot Luna but with a 21 round mag.
This really seems like a perfect roll for this weapon. Perhaps for PVP Third Eye would be better, but while I like Third Eye I try to avoid using it for fear it'll make rely on it and make me worse with weapons that don't have it.
But now it's a struggle to keep using TLW when such a SR is at my disposal...

Oh, annoying. That means I need to farm for Armor cores again.
I'm not the best sniper, I'll take any higher aim assist I can get!
Nami's Hawkmoon-only run went nearly Flawless, I think it was only one player who had 2 deaths (at Gatekeepers and Atheon). So it definitely seems doable if you have a really solid team and the spirit of the Hawk.And me! But don't be a wuss and do it OG style... on VoG!

Wait until somebody changes tour timezone to be best buddies with Hitler and you have to stick with It 70 years later. I should be in the same time zone as the UK.
Today everybody arrived late to a meeting at 9:00 because they thought it was stilk 8:00 (they were working on remote machines locatedthe UK)
The Thorn bounty is one of the easiest exotic bounties in the game imo, only the SGA and Invective bounties are easier to do. The Pocket Infinity bounty was a pain in the ass due to having to rely on the RNG being on your side and dropping fusion rifles for you(unless you were one of the lucky few who managed to buy them), Bad Juju had me grinding out strikes for hours(seriously, I hate strikes, so that bounty took me weeks to complete) and the less said about the HoW exotic bounties the better.
The Thorn Bounty on the other hand took me just under 2 hours to do in its entirety, it was a breeze from beginning to end.
You mean Xyor? I don't know how it was back at launch, but I ran through that mission with randoms off of LFG recently and we ROFLstomped it with Ghorns. The epic modifier wasn't really a problem since we were one shotting everything.
If you have good void weapons and you know what you're doing in PvP its a breeze. Two of the void weapons I used to do it were weapons I'm comfortable using in PvP anyway(Praedyths Revenge and Truth), so I just went into the Clash playlist and did what I do a lot of in PvP, staying back and sniping. I only used my Word of Crota when someone rushed me in an attempt to take me off my sniper perch because I was decimating his team lol. It only took me 7-8 games to finish that portion of the bounty iirc.
Exactly. I scared.

If there's any flawless/clan raids going on if be up for it too if there's space! They're the only things I need to do for my first ever platinum >.<
Well I need to do a strike with clan members too
Well I need to do a strike with clan members too
Yeah but they're rather expensive. As Zoba kindly detailed, the best way is to get 7 wins in ToO and then grind glimmer to buy/dismantle Legendaries from Brovance for 500 glim.

Yeah I've done the ToO weapon farm several times now. how much do the Rare weapons at the Gunsmith cost? Been so long since I did the PI bounty that I forgot.
I think blues are like 2k? Forgot too.

I did it back only a few days after the game came out. It was before everyone was running around with OP guns and such (VOG wasn't even open yet). It was MUCH harder then, haha.

Thanks. Just looked it up. 1600 glimmer.
I'll stick with ToO method lol

I did the thorn bounty pretty close to when the game launched, and it took me quite a bit of effort. We didn't have the same weapons, armor or character level we do now so it was a bit more challenging... for me at least. As for it being rewarding, well i really feel it was... mixed in pvp and a new story mission, it seemed pretty interesting at the time.
Bad juju was kind of a pain due to all the strikes though

Oh man, I remember just endlessly doing Nexus strike over and over again for that Bad Juju bounty.

Slowly but surely, I suppose. Maybe I can tell Nghtly my story and he can carry me like he did the other guy a couple weeks ago
I don't even care if he takes me to Mercury, just whatever piece brovance is selling. Well I guess the 8 win can also give another piece of gear but as usual, I'll take anything I can get.
I can also ask our incredible PvPers if they're willing to attempt Trials with my Warlock to try to get a 5+ win card.
