Can't imagine a scenario where this thing is useful in PvE. Then again, Strange Coins are easy to come by if you have more than one character. I always suggest buying any Exotic you don't own, specially these HoW pieces which only have 3 upgrade bubbles and come at 42 Light right off the bat.

Cool. I'll snag it -- I have two characters, and who knows maybe it gets a Year 2 version that is better for PvE (I just love the way it looks :O)

Yeah with two characters you should be making over 20 Coins a week so just snag anything you don't own.

Imagine that beauiful Blueprint kiosk with every slot filled in. It must be done :)

An, Trials Day. Just gonna be looking for 5 wins on my Hunter. Hopefully the map isn't Pantheon, Theive's Den, or Black Shield.


It's gonna be one of those three isn't it?

I need the Titan's Crest of Alpha Lupi but I do not know if it is even worth rolling engrams for it right now when I should probably be saving motes. . .


Also I'm about to crazy with heavy ammo synth.

Good morning, Noomi!

It sucks that the hunter boots are discipline only. Need intellect. A lot of intellect. I just want the boots cause it has the heavy perk and I missed out on it last time around.

Personally, I'm not rolling any engrams but I've never been much of a collector. Just buying what Xur brings that I dont have from now on with the new blueprint system.

Yeah, I was able to level him pretty quickly with some help. Only bought the Variks chest piece so far, hopefully on Tuesday he has a nice helmet for me :D

If all goes according to plan and RNG decides to give me some love, he should be 34 by this weekend :D

Well that was all awesome. Jumped into a PoE last round on boss. Probably 3-4 minutes played.

Unlocked both small chests and got 5 mote, 5 coins and a key. Used key to open main chest and get Eternal Warrior helmet. Bit of luck as I was going to buy that from Xur just after. Also got Her Right Hand.

The public event better pop up this time. Waited 15 minutes last time and never popped up. 7 minutes waiting for timer to hit 0 on the site and 8 minutes of waiting for it to pop up.

Seems like the public event tracker site has been off recently. I've heard some people mentioning the same problem the other day.

I still think the absolute best story in the game is the Thorn / Last Word Grimoire.

A young kid seeing a dazzling Guardian, in awe runs up to him and holds his gun, The Last Word... realizing this path he wants to set on.

A man corrupted by the Darkness so fully that he forgets his past self, abandons his heroic storied life as a Guardian and assumes a new identity; his old Rose becoming a Weapon of Sorrow, the Thorn.

His first and last friend confronting him, urging him to recall who he was, while the carcass of that former guardian saying that the hero of old was no longer, and only he and his darkness prevailed.

Imagine how freaking cool it would have been to finish up the Thorn bounty in an Elimination map, riddled with dialogue, against a bot using Thorn. Defeat this old guardian to claim his weapon. No Special, no Heavy. Just 5 rounds of PvE in a PvP format with dialogue, lore, and a great reward.

It's painful how much potential this game's back story has.

You should be a designer for Bungie. That would be amazing.

You never got any warlock legendaries from faction or cryptarch packages on your hunter? Seems crazy with how long you've been playing.

I remember when I finally made my hunter I already had a full set waiting in the vault. Plus a bunch of exotics.

Yes its the best backstory in the game. It actually triggered me to begin the Thorn quest I never felt like doing. And I had TLW already. Just wanted them both. This was before the mayhem these weapons cause nowadays.

Its so much wasted potential. An actual quest with dialogue etc, where you meet Xyor, Dredgen etc would've been ace.

Oh man I'd kill for backstory DLC. An expansion titled The Twilight Gap, fighting with St. 14 and Zavala and the rest of the gang to push back the Fallen, being on the edge of defeat when the Queen negotiates with House of Wolves to let us win...or that campaign to recover the moon with Hundreds of guardians succumbing to Crota himself (I imagine he didn't have guys carrying the only freaking sword which could hurt him back in that battle, he'd just kneel once in a while to catch his breath :p)

This game could have had such an awesome, amazing campaign with the universe they created.

I dun' goofed.

Never really intended to make a warlock or titan; always told myself I'm going to run 3 hunters.... because who has time for another 2 classes? Oh boy.... how wrong I was.

I would always dismantle gear from other classes I didn't need, same with class materials.

Now I wish I hadn't, but it shouldn't take me too long to get everything I need. By the time TTK releases I'll have most of the warlock exotics, and every raid set and trials set as well ;)

You're still working on that, Zoba? I thought you would've given up by now. I did when I went looking up for anyone who skipped Gjallarhorn back during the first time Xur sold it.

And that's nothing compared to what you're doing.
