How many coins do you have?
It's not bad if you need the light, but I would try for a helm first.

They're pretty mediorce, but not terrible for a starter Exotic. The stat roll of 105 isn't too shabby either (max is 121)
I assume this is a new character for you if so yes. You can only equip one anyway so use that till you get another.

You either use the Horn to burn Qodron, or you use the Horn to melt the adds and then burn Qodron.
Same difference.
The sky is falling... ERGH!

Then what are the exotics that get dismantled as soon as they pop out of the chest? This is getting weird...
most of the nerfs are fairly good other than ice breaker and pve shotguns damage. which ones are you finding ridiculous?

Considering Xur has already sold every Exotic except vanilla Heavy weapon 3 or 4 times, no reason for him to sell anything that isnt Ghorn or Thunderlord.

Yeah cause you are totally going to run PoE when TK launches
Armor cores, weapon cores and etheric light are going to be the next currency. We need to stack up our vaults with 999 of each

Not really, thanks. I will probably be doing some work during the weekend, so I will only be availably for short bursts of gaming. Also, I'd like to find a decent USB headset before to avoid getting the signals mixed due to bundled headset + 5.1 sound system like the last time.

Anyone want to run Nightfall with me? Haven't cleared this week and I could use it to build up my Nighthawk perks
PSN: Nightfall

My point was more along the lines of not having a "melt the adds" option anymore.
My main problem with them nerfing the Horn is that they don't have a good sense of measure when designing encounters, and that weapon helped mitigate some frustration that could arise otherwise. I'm not too hopeful they will change their level design philosophy, which is what is putting me, at the moment, in the "eeeeh, bummer" camp about all those PVE nerfs. ^^
Good point. ^^Yeah cause you are totally going to run PoE when TK launches
But yeah, more afraid of what the future content will have for us...

God please no. I can't deal with having to even run anything else in PoE besides 35.
Well unless the NLB counts!

That awkward moment when Xur rolls a Gjallarhorn and Bungie removed it from the loot table, but forgot to remove the roll possibility.
I still feel selling a Gjallarhorn for all would be a better option to the "gjallarhorn-only requirements" for LFG's than a nerf. Even with a nerf it will probably still be the biggest (and safest) DPS option out there.

Your psn is nightfall? Count me in
edit: Dude there's like 1725 variations of nightfall, which one is you?

It's all a conspiracy I tell ya.
With zero indication or proof, people are jumping to "It was Gjallarhorn!!!!!!! It must be!" I thought they were joking but apparently some people mean it.
How on earth would you be sure about the explanation when we have zero understanding of the system? Not like it's public. These "it must be, there's no other way" posts are bewildering.

Kind of weird of them to nerf BH after it had already gotten a pretty substantial nerf where immune precision shots don't count anymore. Continously headshotting a boss/regular enemy other than a walker ain't supereasy Bungie. It's basicly an extremely quick outlaw perk on a sniper rifle now. I guess that's a way to make your new weapons a viable/better alternative for the future, nerfing the old ones.
I know, it prevents powercreep yadayada, but my beloved BH's guyz... :'(

Hahahaha, yeah I know what you mean. I was kind of poking fun at those conspiracy theories, but I guess Bungie themselves created that world with never selling a Gjallarhorn again, but do sell a SUROS by community demand and Deej's comments way back
It totally should have.
Also, I kind of regret E.Lighting my void Efrideet's Spear with unflnching and final round. Debating whether to go for a spray and play-final round one instead (Solar obviously, need that BH replacement now). My weapon parts am cry.
Most upset about the Hawkmoon nerf. The mag increase is weird too, especially when they nerf LiTC bonus damage and nerf the mag capacity on all other handcannons. With some scouts having only 13-17 rounds I'm afraid we'll go back to Beta HC mag sizes.
RIP HANDCANNONS (for PvE especially)
Thorn didn't get nerfed hard enough though.
I know lol. But even Bungie isn't this obtuse. If they wanted to not sell Horn, they'd just put something else for sale like they've done for the past 9 months? The empty slot being some sort of panic button "oh no they can't get the horn, make it stop" seems like a crazy explanation to me

Just read the nerfs. Holy shit
Hawkmoon could end up around even with the nerf to hand cannon capacity and the additional bullets it gets for luck in the chamber.
Pretty much everything was beaten with the nerf bat. Hilarious

To be fair, there was some pretty hefty powercreep going on with some of the hilariously OP stuff.
Hawkmoon was an innocent bystander though
Would add .gif of random poor sap being hit by a bat, but I'm at work lol.

Well, I might just be taking a voluntary break from Destiny. Not because of today's news, but because I don't have anything to play for anymore. I'm no longer interested in aqcuiring the last couple of Exotics and I don't need Etheric Light to upgrade gear I'm not using anyway so.... there's nothing left to do.
I ran NF only to get things I don't need. Heroic for coins I don't need and PoE for currencies for gear I don't need and PoE weapons are mostly shit anyway.
I guess I might play a bit of Crucible, but thats about it.

One of those band-aid fixes that come back to bite them in the ass
"Just put the probability to the minimum and disable the icon! Odds are we won't have to worry about it until year two when we nerf all the decent guns to force DLC adoption, and Xur can start selling it then because it'll be crap too"

My Destiny playtime has been reduced to Nightfalls, helping out friends here and there and the odd Mercury attempt, but even the drive to do that is diminishing. Which is fine as Luke mentioned, it's okay for players to leave your game for a while, will probably be back for TTK.
Time to continue my Witcher adventures.
Update made me feel the same way. Like I was going for completion, but if everything is going to be meh anyhow and you're going to fuck around all the shit I like.... Meh. Maybe I'll go outside or something.
What if destiny is just a social experiment to break people of their video game addictions :O
cooonspiiiiiraaaaaacyyyyyyyyyyy
cooonspiiiiiraaaaaacyyyyyyyyyyy
turn them to motes, use motes to gamble for perfect rolls that'll become useless once TTK drops
Seems like a gamble, particularly with the precedents they're setting in terms of heavy-handed nerfing and mechanics overhauls. And crap loot.
Self entitled guardian, he forgot engrams many times.....
He's a weekend player catchment mechanic, oh shit he's selling X better run nightfalls heroics and buy X.
It all feeds in to the gambling mechanics Bungie have solidly put in place in this game.
Xur is selling the Nighthawk, which I don't have! Let me run the Weekly Heroic for guaranteed coins so I can go buy that specific armor.
Seems like the complete opposite of gambling, it's one of the few instances of the game where you know what you're getting and can reliably work towards that specific reward
