Here in NZ certain ISPs have been singled out with network errors for Destiny... probably means they are tampering with the P2P traffic or something.
I'm looking at you VODAFONE NZ (and yes, I'm one of the people affected, grrrr!!).

welcome to this game
The fucked up loot system is the only blemish on an otherwise great game. The story is garbage at the moment but that will improve in time, I am confident. Changing the loot system is entirely at Bungie's discretion and the way they have designed it might have been completely intentional.

I dunno what to think. The last 3 blue engrams I got all decrypted to motes of light. Why couldn't all my loot be like that O;
Nexus didn't so I doubt dark beyond did.....
where is that farming spot anyway?
Got a youtube or something?
it doesn't even the a major change to the loot system, just upping the chance on the legendary engrams to be legendary by about 5% would suffice
It's where you wake up the Hive. Lol.

Is there anyway I can give it to another of my characters? I've been kinda thinking about rolling a Titan.

I've found that If I try not to get excited when I get new engrams, it makes the pain less when I get dem bad drops.

Same here. Except it was the second legendary for me and I am a Hunter.I dismantled it and I enjoyed every second of it.

Isn't your chest shared for all characters? Just put it in there and use it when you leveled a titan.I get my first legendary and it's for Titans.
oh shit that bit of course....
Cheers, what's the drop rate been like typically?
I have been doing Nexus runs and found I have been getting a lot of decent engrams with very little work.
This is true, my legendary chest is now with my warlock. Just need to level him to level 20 now!

1. I thinks it's there just for fun.
2. That's where the Chief of the Iron Banner resides. So this part will unlock in October when the First Iron Banner Tournament starts.
3. I think in about 2 hours

I can assure you it can get incredibly challenging in the higher level version strikes 22/24 etc. If those fights only lasted 2 minutes as you suggested, there wouldn't be any of those moments where there is only one guardian left alive , the boss has little to no health and tensions are incredibly high because one screw up means a redo.
I can understand if MMO style fights aren't your thing, but I really don't think the health should be altered. If you want to wage criticism that the boss fights should be more interesting and require more tactics in that amount of time, I have no problem with that. It's a shame because the Devil Walker actually has an interesting mechanic where if you shoot his legs, his weak point core reactor is revealed and allows the player to dispatch of him quicker. These types of ideas are not present unfortunately in other fights.
Little things like that could go a long way. Shoot a gas tank on the back of a boss, have environmental destruct ability that could hurt a boss. You know, something more than shoot the guy in the head a thousand times.
I'm getting really fed up with this game.
I've played with two friends almost all the way through. We queue for Crucible together, we do strikes together, all that stuff.
I have yet to ever, EVER see a legendary engram. My friends each at least have one legendary and one exotic. I'm stuck using shitty blues that have been maxed for ages. Even if I get it, and it's an exotic for another class, that's something. Can't even get that.
RNG is absolutely killing me and it's killing my enjoyment hearing my friends over voice go "OMG THIS ITEM IS AWESOME EINBROCH COME HELP ME UNLOCK IT".

I'm quietly confident Bungie is observing these criticisms and are factoring them in to their expansion plans

Has anyone else had problems with Fireteam based chat not working properly?
All my PSN based chats have worked sweet, but the odd Fireteam based chat doesn't seem to be going properly, either I can hear them but they can't hear me, or the opposite...
Can't be my mic, tested it thoroughly via PSN/PC etc.

2AM (PST) Raiding Party
As soon as the Raid is unlocked were going to have a group ready and be in the same clan so we can all receive the Raiding Party trophy.
What will I need to do?
Aside from being ready in less than 2 hours you can join the temporary clan here and set it as your PlayStation clan.

How can I join?
Quote this post and send me a PSN friend request, Neverendin. If you're not on and ready at around 1:45AM, we'll move on to the next person.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

So, what did you get from the Cryptarch?
WHY DON'T I HAVE THE BEST GEAR IN THE GAME A WEEK AFTER IT CAME OUT!?
Probably audio for the raid.
I'm right there with you.
If there's some magic secret I'm missing out on, please, tell me. I don't even know what a Legendary Engram looks like and I've played a crapload.
WHY DON'T I HAVE A CHANCE TO HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE TO GET AN UPGRADE FOR MY GEAR WHEN ALL MY FRIENDS ARE.
How about read what I said, eh?

Motes of Light and some Strange Coins.
I have 8 Strange Coins so atleast I should be able to buy something from Xur next weekend.
One of the Blues helped take me to 22, so it wasn't all bust.

Just do bounties as Gunslinger. Before you turn the bounties in, switch to Bladedancer and it will receive the XP rewards from the bounty. You can do this to level up new guns and armor as well.

Great tip for leveling sub-classes and items:
Before finishing a bounty or a quest, switch your subclass and your gear and complete it. Then switch back.

Glitchfixes probably. Seems to be a lot harder to pull off Post Mortem Melee kills atleast now. And the Triple Play trophy unlocked for me too as soon as i killed all three classes in a streak.

Will try that when I get home. Thanks!
Farming The Darkness Beyond. I think someone in this page or the page before went into detail.
I would say the issue isn't with outgoing damage its with incoming damage. Stuff can be killed quick enough but you die so quickly that sitting way back and just picking apart stuff ends up being the best way. Feels useless being a Titan and still going down to 1 melee attack from just about any mob in the level 26 zones.
The Devil Walker is probably the most boring fight in the game since there are 3 spots you can just shoot him and he can't fight back. But if you go in and try to engage him 1 hit and you're dead and then you better hope someone can res you without dying themselves or it's back to orbit.
Now if you could say survive 3-4 hits and the boss would always fire back at you or jump at you or something I could see more enjoyment out of it.
Any strike I've done boils down to the same mechanics. Chained up Ogre clear adds and just kite and shoot him in chest, Dust palace sit back kill adds get in damage when you can don't engage close since it's instant death, The Vex one with the giant Hydra kite and clear adds as they spawn don't get hit or you're dead. It doesn't leave much room for anything but finding the cheesy spot or sitting way back and ducking everytime the enemy looks at you.
I think the game is fun but when every encounter I've done ends up being the same when you break it down it's rather frustrating.
This got me through the rough first few unlocks of a new subclass. Great tip.
