Okay, someone give me tips on Ash Factory Rerolling.
Currently I have Grenades and Horseshoes, Clown Cartridge, Heavy Payload, Fitted Stock and Single Point Sling.
I know G&H is the most important. Fitted Stock and SPS are probably useless on a RL.
Should I keep it with Clown Cartridge or try and get something else like Tripod or Tracking?

God roll is G&H, Javelin, and your pick of CC or Tripod (tripod is the better choice)

I honestly would go for Tripod. Clown Cartridge barely works for me on my Dreamwalker and having 3 rockets ready without reloading is a hell of a lot better than having one or two if CC works.

My Ash Factory has G&H, Javelin, and Tripod. Shit owns.

 

[Robdraggoo]

I don't get it, if Ghorn was overpowered, why have they waited so long to fix it?

you see, when they nerfed Auto rifles into oblivion it was sad yes, but would not have caused a riot, the love for suros was real, but it was equally hated because it dominated the crucible, much like the Thorn now. everyone uses it, but everyone hates it as well. there are plenty of thorn users, me included, but my reaction to the thorn nerf was "bout damn time"

The thing with Ghallahorn, is that it is universally loved. it didn't effect anybody but the user it was the real end game for alot of players. the golden carrot, and if hey took that away......

I guess they feel comfortable enough with the content of TTK they can comfortably give it out "no more carrot folks, we got lots of other carrots for you coming soon". and then nerf it as it wont be powerful in the new content anyway. lots of stories of commons outclassing year 1 raid gear.

Narmer Quest™

Spoiler

on PS4

9/9/14 - 8/14/15

On many a day and into the night
Narmer and friends went forth to fight
In disarray often, sensibilities tabled
As was often the case, Hard Mode™ enabled.

Once Bytestyle stood ready - yet trouble was brewing
Narmer charged forth from the room "What the !@#$ is he doing?"
Fearless his charge - all damage to absorb
After much swearing - he was naught but an orb

A foolhardy challenge - not exactly the brightest
Carry Narmer through Crota?!! Yet he proved not the lightest.
"I got this" he exclaimed charging forth at BOTH ogres
A soul in the sky marked that run as quite OVER.

With each enemy vanquished and ammo depleted
Not receiving THAT reward left our hero defeated
True fun was had, jokes left teams rollin!
But alas, all too often his precious was stolen.

He tried not to care - would congratulate the other
But would gladly have traded both father and mother
Why so elusive - just how can this be?
Many nights were spent cursing that foul R.N.G.

49 Fridays till that bright August morn
When Narmer bought his Gjallarhorn.
Go forth to battle! Solar burn all the turf!!
Enjoy for a while -

Spoiler

till Luke brings the nerf.

Beautiful. :')

I don't get it, if Ghorn was overpowered, why have they waited so long to fix it?

the fact that is was overpowered wasn't why Bungie is making changes. it was the exclusive nature of the community that required people to have it before they were accepted into raids.

"don't have a Ghorn? sorry we found someone else who does"

that kind of attitude is shitty when you rely on RNG to get stuff and play with people.

 

[FyreWulff]

Thought you were talking about action figures for a second there.

Anybody interested in a flawless raid tonight?

perfect roll would be:
hard launch, tripod, javelin, and G&H.
and also Arc, for no other reason this game has a severe lack of good arc rocket launchers.

This whole convo between Bungie employees made me giggle.

Cozmo: "Guys, these aren't DM's"

[Orthogonal]

I'm pessimistic that the nerf will be severe and will be released today.

As typical and trollish as that would be, I am sure they are, for once, willing to bask in the light of the goodwill generated by this.

I predicted Xur would sell it shortly before the next major expansion last year in order to drum up hype. No way are they going to blow it.

Gjallarhorn #1
Got it from a legendary engram 24 hours before Xur sold it for the first time. This was back when legendary engrams could get you blue shit.

Gjallarhorn #2
Christmas week. Went and did nightfall with Zoba. I told him I'm gonna get Gjallarhorn. I totally called it.

Gjallarhorn #3-6
Dismantled. I was an idiot.

Gjallarhorn #7
Legendary engram.

Gjallarhorn #8
Trials Silver package. I stole it from Todd weeks before he got it from the Mercury chest.

Gjallarhorn #9-10
I bought them this morning.

Why?

Why?

Because I have the coins to spare. Plus, if we have to sacrifice shit to upgrade year one exotics to year 2 level, then I have 3 unupgraded Gjallarhorn for each of my maxed out Gjallarhorn. Again, that's if that's the way to level them up. Won't know till the stream.

Inferno Clash they are. But I dont think they are in regular Clash.

 

[Ophelion]

My major hope with the Gjallarhorn nerf is that it indicates that they intend to move away from bullet sponge bosses. If they're not trying to balance bosses against the horn's current intense DPS potential (because it's been reduced) then I'm hoping that means they're making changes in accordance to the bosses so that overall they just aren't so fucking tedious to murder.

Because a lot of the bosses in this game get really boring to kill about halfway in.

Honestly, soloing the nightfall this week a couple of times made me realize that I at least would really be into deadly but vulnerable enemies. Doing careful guerilla warfare against hobs capable of one-shotting me, but that went down in just two or three shots from my Fang of Ir Yut was super exciting. In a weird sort of way, I got the kind of high off it I get from playing stealth tactical games, especially since it was Nightfall and getting one-shotted meant starting the level over from the beginning.

I dunno. Maybe that's just my thing and the player base overall would just hate it.

I have 951 strange coins and I have three max ghorns, two more max exp ghorns, and one more Unupgraded horn and I'm not buying any more gjallarhorns.
