Nope. Cryptrach ranks just get you packages in the mail and it claims to affect the Engrams he sells but it doesn't.

Technically, it does at first; you need to be level 1 to be able to buy Uncommon engrams, level 2 for Rares, and (presumably; never actually seen or heard of such a thing) level 3 for Legendaries and 4 for Exotic. That said, there's not much practical difference after rank 1, since even seeing Rare engrams for sale is... well, very rare.

 

[RoboPlato]

I get about 9 blues an hour doing that

Same, then I got 4 more for hitting Cryptarch 3 :lol

 

[Indrid Cold]

Man this game us trolling me. Got 2 legendary leg engrams got 2 strange coins from both of Em. 20 total. Was at eleven two hrs before xur left. Thx game >.>

 

[Vooduu]

I fucking love this game. i paired up with two random guys for the weekly heroic and it was epic. So much fun.

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

Traded off my first light armour, went down from light +20 to light +6...whoops.

 

[Paertan]

Bit the bullet and farmed Engrams on Venus. Hd some weapons and armor needed to be upgraded as well. An hour or close to it got me 6 blues or something. Got me some decent stuff.
But did a Strike after that and finally got my first Legendary!

Would rather have gotten basically anything else than a RPG but it is damn good as long as I have ammo.

Then I level up the Cryptarch to level 5 and got two (!) Legendaries. Each a chest piece. One for my class Titan and one for a Warlock. Guess I will play as a Warlock sometime xD Already have started a Hunter.

 

[Xevren]

I'm almost level 7 and I always get jack shit.

Mine is 12 and it still sucks, so doubt it gets better unless my cryptarch is defective.

 

[SnakeXs]

In PvP, if hand cannon A has a 5 round magazine, and hand cannon B has an 11 round magazine, do they each do the same damage per shot?

 

[Hawkian]

was just standing where the warsat lands on the moon for the public event, holy shit!

 

[disastermouse]

So let me get this right...

I can go to the crucible, enter a match, not even touch my controller, and still get a Legendary?

 

[VexyWexy]

Shotguns are causing Crucible to reach Gears of War levels of silliness with everyone just running up to each other trying to get the OHK...

You'd probably just get booted for idling. I think you have to move occasionally to avoid it, like most games, at which point you as well just play.

If you're lucky, yes. Doesnt matter at all how well you do in the crucible, you have the same chance of getting stuff as that one guy on your team who went 40-0 and carried your team to victory...because reasons

Yes.

Thanks a lot man!

You could play with your feet while you browse GAF.

 

[jediyoshi]

[Pastry]

Just traded in two legendary engrams and got materials and a blue, goddamit Bungie. This is stupid

 

[gatti-man]

If anyone is off wednesday or planning on doing the raid I'm lvl 26 right now. Fully skill tree'd defense titan. Let's do this. We can start wednesday and if we can't finish then we can pick it up saturday or whenever.

 

[Yoshichan]

Ugh, sorry about the whole PM-thingy before I went to bed last night, guys.

 

[Acorn]

Which mp mode is the quickest?

 

[Steel]

Which mp mode is the quickest?

Rumble.

 

[Spy]

Is anyone level 26+ up for doing the Weekly Nightfall Strike (Level 28) like right now?

PSN: Neverendin

Depending on what the material is it could be more valuable the the legendary you wanted.

 

[NullPointer]

Every negative review and criticism I see I think "Yeah, that's definitely true...Yeah that should be fixed...Yeah that's not so great..." Etc.

Then I get home and play for a few hours. Because imperfections aside, the game is fun, plays smoothly, and is addicting.

Right there with ya.

I can make a laundry list of missteps, but swooping a sparrow through The Drift on Mars or getting the finishing blow on a strike boss, or jet-packing from outcropping to outcropping and nailing headshots once I set up my roost, stabbing an enemy about to clobber me with my last sliver of health, and even just running through the Tower and catching the views both inside and out... that stuff is too damn good.

There's still a lot here to love in the moment to moment - its everything else that needs work.

 

[Karl2177]

Thankfully we knew this was going to be a sequel grab before it even came out. That story was a train wreck from the moment they started to unveil the Exo Stranger.

 

[SharkJAW]

In PvP, if hand cannon A has a 5 round magazine, and hand cannon B has an 11 round magazine, do they each do the same damage per shot?

Depends on the impact stat. I have a rare hand cannon that kills in 3-4 but has a mag of 13. I also have one with a mag of 6 or so that does less damage. Used to have one with a mag of 3 that killed in 2, I think.

If the impact stat is equal, go for the larger mag, unless there's some huge stability/rate of fire difference. That way, you don't have to reload before your next encounter, in case said person is close.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Does anyone know why I have a total of +8 light and it still shows my progress to level 21 as zero? I know +8 light isn't much but shouldn't it at least show a little progress???

 

[catspit]

How come there is no Xp bonus in the pvp area anymore... Was it a weekend only thing ?

 

[CLBridges]

If I dismantle a legendary titan mark will I get any ascendant shards out of it?

When you select "details" of weapon/armor, just hover on the Material Details icon and it will show you what dismantling the item will give you.

 

[hamchan]

We've woken the hive!!

Best farming method.

 

[MidEvlDed]

Legendary! Finally! Got it for cryptarch level 6. Found another purple earlier, my first one, and it turned into a rare.

 

[Dany]

How close to lvl 26 do i have to be to attempt the raid? And what gear How many legendaries?

 

[Sai-kun]

really excited for raid streams

1 hour of actual content and the other 15 hours are for the parts where you shoot the bullet sponge bosses

Spoiler

gimme level 26 already

 

[nib95]

i think the RNG likes me. four Legendary engrams and I've received two Exotics now.

Wow... What's RNG btw? And how did you get these? Story, loot drop, Crucible?

My feelings as well. There's a lot to be improved but what's here is pretty damn great at the core. Any complaints I have are because I want this game to get even better over time.

 

[Yoshichan]

So while I was sleeping, did something happen for the past 8 hours? Any new farm spot locations?

It's great.

 

[Tawpgun]

I'm convinced there's some prequesite im not meeting for me to start seeing legendary drops and rewards. I'm level 24 and I haven't evenn seen a legendary engram. AND I have never seen anyone I play with get one either.

 

[Twilight Gap]

the best part is Bungie will probably implement an AFK ban in a few weeks.

 

[tuna_love]

I now have a full legendary set for a warlock. I am a hunter

 

[Goodacre0081]

four purple Engrams drops. those two Exotics and two Legendary armor pieces

 

[HighOnPCP]

Seriously. Awesome post..

People who get my chappelle references are more awesome than the other just sayin

I'm beginning to suspect Bungie did something like give all loot a fixed percentage to drop from every enemy type, so it's no easier to get a Legendary playing a Heroic Strike at your level than it is mowing down level 9 Thralls.

Anyway, I got one the other day on the Rocketfarm. Might be worth a shot.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

My friend did that moon story thing and got two exotic weapons and one legendary boot.......

 

[toastyToast]
