Then there was the time when Unstable & Wicked got matched against Rubenov and Kadey, not sure if anyone saved that video though.

Unstable/Wicked/Drizz also got matched against Slammin Hammon and a couple others in the beginning of last week's trials.

But damn this one is a good one so far (SoM*2 + Hawk) on each team haha.

Never used Warlocks too much but after being burned so much during a Trials I took out a Firebolt + Viking Funeral + Touch of Flame build to Control.

Holy shit. Why didn't I discover this earlier. I can chuck something In the general vicinity of a player and leave them nearly dead with no chance to recover shields. You can clean up a team without reloading after a well placed grenade :|

I saved a clip. Popped radiance and killed 5 guardians on Exodus able B point just spamming Firebolts and meleeing any fool who came near me. Viking Funeral is real.

So I guess Bungie is not talking about a Year 2 Season pass? nor are they selling a Year 2 Digital Guardian edition (TTK + Year 2 Season pass) before TTK is released?

Do you think we'll ever see a big tournament for this game? Like not a reddit meetup but an actual a lot at a competitive esport event?

I really hope TTK brings private lobbies. Custom matches would go a long way to help this game's competitive community evolve.

The competitive scene in Destiny is not that big, plus the lack of private lobbies makes it hard to have an export event I think.

Is there any point in doing the prison of elders wave challenge thing if you don't have a key? I didn't see any loot drops the two times that I have ran through it just the random items in the post mission result screen. But I really enjoyed it, thought it was fun.

Got awesome stuff with Keys though, the truth exotic launcher on first run and some max level legendary chest piece and her right hand legendary shotty on second run, pretty sure my judgment iv is still better though cause of it's crazy range.

So much shit would need to be balanced first before that could ever be considered.

28 for the 2 small chests - will reward motes and strange coins, and if you're lucky, treasure key(s).

32 - same as 28 but also armor core.

34 - same as 28 but also weapon core and etheric light.

35 - same as 28 but also both armor and weapon cores, and etheric light.

Fun match even though we lost, it was a no secrets match because we always play together.

We'll know more soon. Bungie day is next week. Gamescom is coming up too.

My guess is that they may just want to hold off a bit. They might have all hands on deck trying to finish up the taken king before they split up for future DLCs. Probably been doing a post op on expansions 1&2 as well. wouldn't hurt to try and come at future expansions from a different angle. Destiny development is a big ship to steer.

This game is not competitive and it will never be in the sense other games out there are.

Even if TTK brings private matches which I hope to god it does, the problem still remains that there is so much bullshit in this game it hurts sometimes. At the same time you can't just go in and forbid everything, essentially rob Destiny's identify and try to turn this into Halo or something. Sometimes I think the hilarious bullshit is what keeps us PvP players playing. It's magical sort of.

There are no other games. There is only Destiny.

I wish it was closer to September. I've already started making an aggregated tooken avatar hype picture. It's not even July.
