To be honest, the new exotic titan helmet looks like they slapped a random, very flat metal texture onto it.

 

[OkayRene]

Up for that Crota HM 3X tonight? I will probably bang out my NFs and Weeklys first...

What time?

 

[Baliis]

ROFL at that felwinters roll that's for sale. Bungie trolling hard right before the nerf.

 

[Homeboyd]

Ok swing and a miss with the first exotic. Let's see #2...

 

[MrDaravon]

Any GAF IB Trains running right now on PSN? I did most of the last IB solo which sucked as bad as you imagine. Help me not hate the PvP in this game so much! PSN: MrDaravon

 

[Inapplicable]

Why the fuck is cauldron a 6v6 map? Never been spawnkilled so much.

 

[flkraven]

Titans get another underwhelming exotic? No surprise here.

I'm actually pretty excited about that. That move on warlock is one of my favorite things about them, and Titan is my main so now I get the best of both worlds!

Guys wait, wait wait.

Wait a minute.

Why are we PREVENTING the Cabal from blowing up the Dreadnought's core?

WE want to destroy Oryx and the Hive, not the stinking Cabal.

FTFY

 

[JohnOfMars]

Nolan sounds great.

I like it. Was higher pitched than I expected, higher than I expected Nolan to pull off, but he is a pro.

It's probably the higher pitch, but now he reminds me of 343 Guilty Spark. Floating light. Unlocking doors.

Lol that exotic shotgun is so mediocre. Bungie please.

 

[X-Frame]

I do like to dust off my P Greaves from time-to-time, they look amazing.

Have you ever noticed that if you look at your legs while sprinting and in the air that your boots get little wings on them? It's the little things.

darth, those aren't wings -- those are BLADES.

Guys wait, wait wait.

Why are we PREVENTING the Cabal from blowing up the Dreadnought's core? Don't we WANT to destroy Oryx and the Hive?

We "want" to blow it up.

Yeah I'm hoping they tell us why this makes sense.
Seems kind of stupid.

Well, according to Ghost "They blow up planets and moons just for getting in their way." For all we know the explosion from the Dreadnaught might take Saturn out with it.

EVEN BETTER!

only ever saw them in first person, those look fantastic

 

[LTWood12]

Bet it's one hell of a slug.

 

[lt519]

Oryx is the king of the Hive. He wields a terrifying power that is capable of twisting a being's soul to his need. He uses this strange power to amass an army the Guardians call the Taken.

Thanks again Nami!

But yo, what if while fighting Oryx one random fireteam member occasionally becomes cursed/confused like in a JRPG and start's wrecking havoc on the team.

That shotgun looks pretty slick. I'm digging the ornate look of what they've shown off so far today.

Oh good you got the pic to work -- it wasn't showing up on my phone, haha. I had to just remove it from my post.

That's pretty much impossible to blow up a gas giant.

All about who you play with. I find the whole process of PoE 35 cathartic, but I'm pretty much always playing w/ people I enjoy hanging out with.

Obviously it wasn't like this before w/ the burns, and w/ the Skolas fight having all the yellow-bar majors etc. But after tackling it a couple of times it's become a great stress reliever after a long work day and sleepless nights.

Well, you know the group I play with (basically exclusively), so it's definitely not the group's fault. =) captscience, Dave_6, Haybro, Verde, schwagger15, and Grip (and you, when you join us!) are all laid back and have a good time.

I'm also the dissenting opinion; no one else seems to dislike the PoE content the way I do. It just isn't my cup of tea.

Do you like any of the PoE? I don't much mind it now, especially since I'm not really chasing anything, takes all of the pressure off. It also helps that I'm normally playing with people I enjoy playing with, and can joke around most of the time and laugh at each other.

I don't like any of the PoE. I haven't done 35 yet, but haven't enjoyed any of my time in the lower levels. As mentioned above, the group's great. If it wasn't for the group, I just wouldn't do it at all. As it stands, I'm willing to subject myself to PoE occasionally just to play with the guys.

Skolas is just very methodical in its design: start on one spot, kill adds, rotate, kill adds, rinse and repeat. Thing obvously can go wrong, but as long as your managing the encounter correctly, it's not bad at all. I think maybe my hidden OCD kicks in his fight too, since it so specific in how you do it.

I'm looking forward to the Skolas encounter itself, I'm just super not looking forward to the preceding stuff.

I'd vote Don't Touch Me Gloves, super OP in the CE raid and PoE mine sections. I'd put it instead of Celestial Nighthawk, while CN has one OP shot, Don't Touch Me Gloves don't rely on your super. More valuable in more situations.

I've also been running Kephri's Sting with a blade dancer in PvP so I can use the heal on kill perk and still crouch to invis. That one is more for funsies.

 

[Kor of Memory]

No Land Beyond of shotguns it seems

According to this video of Ghost ship: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/featu...the-taken-king-s-eight-new-crucible-maps.aspx

The gun does 145 body shot. Shotguns have a 2x modifier for headshots I'm pretty sure, so that'll kill.

Even if it was a 1.5X headshot modifier it would still kill.

You can also tell by the video that it's range is better than the normal shotgun as well, and it it looks like drop off damage isn't so harsh because the 2nd shot does 126 damage.

I would agree with you on St 14, but Ruin Wings are broken. I would easily easily easily put Don't Touch Me in their place.

Well, according to Ghost "They blow up planets and moons just for getting in their way." For all we know the explosion from the Dreadnaught might take Saturn out with it.

Do we still "owe the queen one?" If so, maybe her brother doesn't die, but Oryx captures him and part of the raid to kill him is saving her brother. I would think the strike would take place before the raid, timeline wise, so that's why we need to stop them.

 

[Lnkn52]

I ust wanna give a 👍 to whoever at Bungie has been designing these teaser trailers as of late. They've been very well put together.

I'll send the checks to Kojima.

Well, yeah. Destiny's crimes against physics are long, and recent (like Comet 67P smashing into Oryx's ship around Saturn, when it doesn't go past Jupiter).

Mainly it was an excuse to post a cool question/article.

and.....I knew I forgot 1. I really like Dont Touch Me. but I pretty much use it for only CE thuogh. I should give them a try.

Also they lose cool points because the queens brother wears them
