They are capped, they don't reset.

I know i mean hit the cap. Can i get 100 in 3 hours?

 

[mauaus]

I just added you

Room for one more? Psn same as my gaf name

 

[DY_nasty]

What's the fastest way to gain rep?

crucible, bounties

patrol too

 

[therealminime]

Never play a real MMO...

Yeah, definitely won't.

No one up for some nexus engram farming?

Add hypotc on PSN, PS4 if you want to join!

Added, if you have a free slot still.

 

[Rflagg]

I'm wondering this also, I need a bunch more for my chest.

The only time I seem to get them is the random public events that sometimes spawn when out on patrol, which don't seem to happen all that often. :/

 

[E92 M3]

Well I've put 28 hours into my main character and still have not gotten a single legendary. This is getting very, very annoying.

Right up there with you, brother.

If you're crucible rank 2 and have 100 marks you could buy a legendary.

Buying loot is never as exciting as finding it for free

 

[Bizazedo]

Do I have a chance to get the Vanguard marks cap before reset tonight? I'm level 20 and will probably play for about 3 hours after work. I currently have 0 marks

I know i mean hit the cap. Can i get 100 in 3 hours?

Depends how many mats you have in your bank / vault / bags...but, honestly?

No way / Doubtful.

 

[rugioh]

Need one more for nexus farming

PSN: SylvanMidget

Just added you too.

EDIT: If you're looking for nexus farmers on PS4 please add me, I'm on now in Tower

 

[jaaz]

The Vault of Glass could end up being the best raid ever, but at this rate few will be able to even play it when it opens tomorrow. I've seen maybe two level 26s in my entire time playing the game and neither was on my friends list. By DestinyDB's stats, there are only 177 level 25s currently. I can't imagine getting 6 level 26s together to raid at the same time will be easy tomorrow.

I know its not going anywhere, but it would have been nice to at least peek my head in and see what it's all about (level 22 currently)

 

[LiK]

It is amazing to me that there are people on Reddit and the Bungie forums trying to defend the loot system of this game saying its perfectly fine.

I guess they don't mind getting Legendaries that turn out to be useless rares.

 

[Flo_Evans]

I know i mean hit the cap. Can i get 100 in 3 hours?

I kinda doubt it but it seems like a challenge.

 

[VE3TRO]

Uh fun while it lasted, the Shrine of Oryx farming technique has been patched.

 

[recks]

Any groups for nightfall? Seems it has an decent chance on giving exotic/legendary gear as rewards, it's my last hope to get to 26 before raid, needs lvl 25 at least I think.

PSN x__xo__o

I find that 177 number hard to believe.

Not Bungie's own stats. The stats were given by DestinyDB.com which you have to register for to track stats. There's far more 25s than 177.

 

[Steel]

Do any of these amazing guns have any actually interesting mechanics to them or are they just higher numbers with a pretty paintjob? The majority of my time seems to be stuck with good old bullets. I do hope they do some more interesting things as time progresses.

Well, other than the rare auto-shotty, no. Some of the orange weapons seem to have interesting effects, like rocket launchers that split into a cluster explosion.

 

[Trumpet909]

Any kind of master list out for public events?

http://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/2gbu7q/psa_public_event_schedule/

I was just in old Russia but all seemed to be correct for me.

 

[Pastry]

Uh fun while it lasted, the Shrine of Oryx farming technique has been patched.

How'd they patch it out? I got an exotic and legendary that way.

 

[E92 M3]

Uh fun while it lasted, the Shrine of Oryx farming technique has been patched.

I never used it, but hope the other farming techniques still work.

 

[Mr Croft]

I know i mean hit the cap. Can i get 100 in 3 hours?

I don't think 100 is possible but try and do some material farming or knockout a couple of strikes

 

[jaaz]

Ah okay, thanks for the correction.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Crucible anyone? Probably some strikes afterwards

PSN is KINGofCRA5H-

 

[BreezyLimbo]

It is amazing to me that there are people on Reddit and the Bungie forums trying to defend the loot system of this game saying its perfectly fine.

Yeah. It's like....if you did Battlegrounds in World of Warcraft and it gave you epics from the current Raid tier. And at that, it was completely random. It just....I don't know where Bungie got the notion of that was a good idea. Sure, some loot is fine-Maybe add in a multiplier the better you do, decrease the loot rolls otherwise, then it'd be a bit better than what it is now. Nobody is happy when the lowest person in a match gets an exotic(Except that person)

 

[Ramirez]

I can't wait for the raid to skullfuck the player base, the tears are already out of control. I think most people expect they're gonna roll in there and it's gonna rain purps on them.

 

[Schryver]

I kinda doubt it but it seems like a challenge.

Challenge accepted?! Is the fastest way to find mats to turn in? Will I really only get 2 marks for a lvl 20 random strike cause that seems broken compared to getting the crucible marks

 

[Chief1690]

I keep getting legendary weapons instead of armor from legendary engrams lol. I need armor. I've got a pulse rifle, scout rifle, fusion rifle and sniper that are all legendary while I've only got a chest plate that's legendary when it comes to armor. Ugh

 

[Somnium986]

So I got my second legendary weapon last night, and it's another pulse rifle. Is an auto or scout rifle too much to ask for? Still have yet to get a single piece of legendary armor.

 

[ComputerBlue]

I can't wait for the raid to skullfuck the player base, the tears are already out of control. I think most people expect they're gonna roll in there and it's gonna rain purps on them.

That's exactly what'l happen. I expect 1 purple engram per raid if you're lucky.

 

[Afrocious]

I sincerely hope this Raid isn't going to be more of the bullet sponges we've been fighting this far.

A team of 6 people fighting enemies that can one-shot them, fighting a series of bosses that take 3 hours each.

I hope your body is ready.

 

[Flying Toaster]

First world problems...

In all seriousness though that has to be frustrating. Best of luck on your future drops.

But the LOOT

 

[Twilight Gap]

another day, another series of games where everyone has a shotgun.

 

[Cantaloup]

Just wondering if there are any members of DGAF east 3. Was hoping we can get the finish a strike with members of your clan trophy.

I'm interested in doing that. PSN: LordNimon

You son of a...I need the weapons and I'm only getting armor. I. Only got a legendary LMG and Rocket launcher. I just want a primary or fusion rifle.

 

[MADGAME]

There's a Prince joke in there somewhere

 

[VE3TRO]

How'd they patch it out? I got an exotic and legendary that way.

When you kill yourself the enemies you killed dont respawn so the area is just empty.

 

[Frillen]

I can't believe we live in 2014 and there are games with unskippable cut-scenes.

 

[DY_nasty]

That's exactly what'l happen. I expect 1 purple engram per raid if you're lucky.

raid sets confirmed too lol

people gonna cry literal tears over getting 1/4 pieces to a set of titan armor lol

 

[jediyoshi]

Yeah. It's like....if you did Battlegrounds in World of Warcraft and it gave you epics from the current Raid tier.

Apples and oranges. The sheer amount of loot available at all is nowhere comparable, a similar loot progression system fitting into the current structure of the game doesn't make sense.

 

[ComputerBlue]

What the hell man, I have all these Salvage bounties and I can't find Salvage on any if my play lists! Anyone else getting this?

Yeah it's only a weekend event in the crucible. Just accept them and scrap them, hopefully you'll get new ones.

 

[Korten]

Wow... I'm a Titan and I feel sad for us... On that Destiny Tracker site, if you look at just the top 20 players on PSN and XBL together... There's only 1 Titan in the top 20... Just... Wow...

 

[Lostconfused]

another day, another series of games where everyone has a shotgun.

The one true way.

Destiny's meta game is so fucked.

 

[TalentBurke]

I can't believe we live in 2014 and there are games with unskippable cut-scenes.

I said the same shit.

 

[Bizazedo]

raid sets confirmed too lol

people gonna cry literal tears over getting 1/4 pieces to a set of titan armor lol

I honestly believe I'll never really get a chance to do the raid. I can't wait to get my ass kicked in Iron Banner.

 

[Z3M0G]

What the hell man, I have all these Salvage bounties and I can't find Salvage on any if my play lists! Anyone else getting this?

Salvage is over. It was for the weekend only. I assume you can throw out those bounties.

 

[Steel]

Why are there two bounties related to salvage when it's down at this point?

Wow... I'm a Titan and I feel sad for us... On that Destiny Tracker site, if you look at just the top 20 players on PSN and XBL together... There's only 1 Titan in the top 20... Just... Wow...

Play pvp, there are barely any titans playing. I get my kill 25 hunter bounties done several times faster than the titan equivalent.

 

[RadixNegative2]

How can I do matchmaking for Weekly Heroic Strike?

 

[Xamtheking]

another day, another series of games where everyone has a shotgun.

Eh
Whatcha gonna do

 

[Afrocious]

But the LOOT

The bosses will have millions of HP.

That group that bungie mentioned playing the raid that took 14 hours and still didn't beat it? They found random people in a mall and promised them a Chick-Fil-A coupon if they could sit with others to play a test version of the raid.

The first boss fight will be 3 Archon Priests with 2x health as the one you fight in that Venus Strike. There'll be so many adds on screen that anyone on a PS3/Xbox 360 will have their console crash.

Then when someone completes this boss fight (the first of five I must add), everyone gets handsomely rewarded with

Spoiler

a mote of light and a blue engram

 

[MCtalkfunny]

just rented this game. At level 3 looking for anybody to play with. Down for anything. If anyone wants to help let me know. PS3 User name tonymagic.
