Destiny |OT27| Nerf Herders

Just got home and gonna be on proper to play in a few minutes, any PS4 IB trains going? Need to get my last character to rank 5 then glimmer farm before the event expires. PSN: MrDaravon

If you have two characters at rank 5, I assume you are doing it for etheric light. I still need a 34 PoE. Would get you an EL in 30 minutes.

Destiny chose to troll Todd and I (well, mostly me) by matchmaking us with folks who had the freaking Bones during the Trials run earlier. We came across I believe 4 Hunters with them.

Dear Destiny, fuck you!

Watch Todd get the Bones tomorrow and I don't.

Xbox doesn't have the feature to play the game while it's installing? Oh brother.

Apparently not. It just shows the "installing" text where you could launch the game from disc.

Oh wait 95%!

Hey Bone bros I may be out of luck tonight as this game may install until Microsoft names me head of P.R.

Still 95%
 
Okay, anyone for trials? PSN

1) Dr_LawyerCop
2)
3)

Just want to give it a shot for the titan gloves this week, since somehow that's the only armor piece I'm missing.

Please, I don't want to go to LFG :(
 
First time ever hitting rank 5 in IB. God damn the grind. Only on my Titan though.

Finally got that shader. I bought two. . tempted to buy a third for all my characters.

Yeah that's got to be an issue with the game. The "ready to play" option usually kicks in about 25-40% into the download.

I'd do it. My advice to anyone on the fence about an IB purchase who has the requisite rank, just buy it. Glimmer can be farmed fast, even without GK CP, whereas IB rank is an absolute grind. If you did the grind, spend with no regrets.

Yes, that is why I'm doing it. I haven't actually used any of the Lights I've gotten yet, currently sitting on 5 total. I haven't decided what pieces to use them on yet though, so you'd have to carry me at 32 which I don't know would be pleasant for you >_>. I think I'm going to buy and use the IB Helm/Chest pieces on all three of my characters since I really like how they look and on all of my characters the stats are comparable or slightly better, but not sure if I'm committed to that yet either.

Just did, thanks for making me feel good in my decision. God IB is terrible--I see why I avoided it until now. It's only fun when you get a DGAF train going.

I'm ranking up my second alt, then ranking my Titan to 5 if you want to start a train...

Come home from work ready to hit some IB and trials and then realize I'm completely drained and too tired to even play. When will the gamescom info start to hit on TTK? Tomorrow?

posted in the old thread, oops but is it worth picking up a Timur's Lash if I don't have one?

Also, first roll for a PvE Spear -short gaze/ambush /Hidden Hand / Snapshot / Surplus. Should I keep or is there a better option for PvE

I know. 1 win every 2-3 tickets is rough for me as well. I take a break after 2-3 tickets of mostly losses. And I'm not bad at PvP. It's just I think because the XBox Destiny Community has a lot of Halo players and they're just good. That and lots of 3 people try hards on Xbox. Xbox has a die hard fanbase with the whole $60 / year MSRP Live subscription, especially with shooters.

I was going to mention how you're just generalizing, and then I realized I only play MCC and Destiny online

The Osiris Grimiore card is amazing.

Woah your right. This will be a long post, but we need to discuss this everyone.

What drives a Warlock to madness?

Ghosts choose those suited to war and heroism to be reborn. By nature or circumstance they go to battle against the Darkness, and through this battle they learn how to use the Light. But Warlocks, by their nature, fight a second, internal war. This is the war to understand a universe of secrets– a world that expects Guardians to fight without full knowledge of what they are or what they might hope to achieve.

You were a mighty warrior. I watched you at Six Fronts, and heeded the call of Saint-14 to appoint you Vanguard Commander, even when the Concordat claimed to have records proving you were a Golden Age experiment mis-incarnated as a human by an inept Ghost. Saint-14 assured me you were just a man without much patience for obfuscation.

I watched as you grew tired of strike missions and the grueling, unproductive sessions with the Cryptarchs. That was when I took you under my wing. I saw our future in you. But your curiosity was voracious– How much of a Guardian's personality and memories were true? How much had been fabricated by their Ghost? Did Guardians share particular personality traits– a willingness to yield to authority, a tendency to do anything anyone asked for the promise of uncertain reward, a blind knight-errant mentality? Had the Traveler manufactured all of you as living weapons?

I admit, I found your questions divisive and disloyal, and I feared you might be capable of breaking our unity when the City's position had grown so tenuous. Why divert attention away from the Traveler, our only hope?
And then it got worse, dabbling in thanatonautics, Ahamkara-lore, chasing after Xur and the tricks of the Nine. Launching expeditions into the Reef and beyond at a time when ships were irreplaceable. Your quest split Guardians along ideological lines. This was your greatest crime: Hunters chose to pursue your visions instead of protecting refugees, Titans assembled teams to chase the legendary Vault of Glass instead of striking the Fallen, and Warlocks turned away from the study of the Traveler in favor of your ultimate obsession... learning the exact nature of the Darkness.

When debate became argument, and argument became acrimony, I realized you had already become a cult of personality, attracting Guardians who wanted a clear idea of why they were fighting, what they faced, and how they would ultimately win.

I don’t know where you have gone, but I can no longer send Ghosts out to find you. Some come back– with tales of your death or how you went seeking answers from the far reaches of space and time. That you found a way to explore the Vex gate networks. That you've made breakthrough after breakthrough as to their origins– theories that a Guardian could not be simulated, that the Traveler might be an ontoformer or a god-incubator, that the Vex had diverged into multiple groups in order to secure 'an end state for every possible configuration of reality'.

I fear you have become as obsessed with the Vex as Toland was with the Hive. I've heard your own insane prophecies about pits and dead Hive kings. And of Crota, which now I cannot deny.

I hear stories of Lord Shaxx meeting with fireteams of Warlocks who have no shadow and never blink. Of jumpships slipping into the Reef on cold trajectories and meeting no intercept. Of questions hidden in matter engrams and answers decrypted on distant battlefields.

Perhaps you are still out there. If this reaches you, I would very much like to speak with you, to hear your theories in your own words.<b

Perhaps what drives a Warlock to madness is truth.

I need 25 wins. Played over 20 this weekend. Won only 5 cause every time I got matched up with Guardians below 20 while the oppossing team all 33 and 34.

We should team up over the week to get the wins we need.


no problem, Math. :)

'fo sho' man. I also need salvage, so if that's on the table tomorrow, I'd be willing as well.

Also... far cry 4 is awesome, playing 60fps on pc after Destiny is something beautiful.
