I would be happy if they add any PvP modes with no radar. Since I only play FFA, that single annoyance is killing PvP for me right now.

Pray to the RNG gods, that's all I can say. Went 30+ hours without a single purple. Then two exotics in a minute. Still haven't owned a purple yet lol.

I think the one stream that is closest to beating it were almost done...with the first boss lol.
Edit: Maybe someone is on Boss #2? Hard to tell since a good number of the Destiny community can't be mature.

Holy shit dude is Destiny your full time job? That's impressive. I'm not even level 2 yet and I've turned in a shitload of engrams I got farming the moon for a few hours (that almost all turned into shit I didn't want). I even blew 20,000 on uncommon engrams just to try and level it up. The bar seems to move the width of a hair each time.

The fastest way to level up the cryptarch is to have him decrypt engrams you've picked up. Buying from him is way too slow.

I assume you mean from a drop? Strange Coins aren't hard to get and guarantee exotics over the weekend.

Mine's rank 10. It only takes 20 blue engrams for each level. 3,000 faction points, 150 per blue engram identification.
What's nuts is how you can get a fireteam in Rumble. Get everyone to work together to get their bounties done.
This is also why Rumble is the most fun.

Then I guess I've just had bad luck with farming. I got maybe 4 blue engrams from farming the moon spot for a couple hours. No legendaries. Shitload of green crap.
At that rate I'd have to farm another 10 or 11 hours just to get cryptarch rank 2. That's way too much.
So I was farming the Skywatch Cave and a message appeared. "Enemies are fighting between them" or something like that. I have the game in Spanish, so I don't know.
Well, enemies started spawning, and spawning, and spawning. Wizards, Knights, Shanks and then everyone was elite enemies with yellow health bars and stuff.
What is this? Is an anti-farming thing?

What a shame. Someone said "that's so fucking gay" on Datto's stream.
have you tried to ping timeout test your internet connection?
So badass. Killing with a knife is the best killing.

Oh wow got explosive rounds for my Scout Rifle awww yis.
Don't think so I had it happen to me on launch day. Had it happen about 6 times so far, it's great though because the amount of enemies which come out can be taken advantage with if you have supers and powerful weapons.

That happened in the beta. It's like some random event where stronger enemies appear. I just looked at it as a way to get more glimmer.
Congrats.

That happened to me, too. It happens in areas where two enemy factions are fighting each other. If you stick around long enough, both sides spawn a ton of extra enemies that get progressively stronger. It's pretty fun trying to survive and kill them all. When they all die, you can just resume farming.

Those can happen instead of a public event spawning and they share the same timer, I think.
I'm up for doing the lvl 26 version, just didn't expect to be able to get any fireteam members to help after how much of a pain last weeks was.
You shouldn't be farming at level 20 or 21. Do the level 20 strikes until you have full blue gear if you don't have it already, make sure to upgrade all your gear as that gives you extra light. Repeat with level 22 strikes, and then level 24. It took me around 3-4 hours to go from level 21 to level 24, and it was by simply replacing level 16 blues with 18 ones, and then finally level 20 ones. Then I turned it bounties to upgrade them quickly, and wala.

LOL...no way! I thought Bungie started the whole "no teams in free-for-all".

Nobody has beat it yet according to Bungie. People are stuck at the final boss.

I gotta do that to make the grind for 500 void kills more bearable. I will have my exotic hand cannon by the weekend!

So is Skywatch better than first moon mission?
Yes, I principally refuse to buy something I can get for "free". In general I feel like buying items in a loot driven game is silly.
Also strange coins are hard to get because of no matchmaking - and they drop rarely in other scenarios.

Ohhh. I think I get the system now, at least for this boss.
dude, I don't even have a purple thingy from drops and I'm level 25 XD
You know what Handcannon it is? I got an Exotic Handcannon called The Last Word.

I seriously hope you're not complaining about RNG when you've gotten 3 exotic weapons when most have none from RNG lol

I'm with ya, but Bungie loves their motion tracker. I'm skeptical they'd ever get rid of it for a regular playlist.

It worked! Thanks a lot, man!
I have nothing but rare weapons. Send some of that luck my way pls.
Don't think I have you, what's your PSN? We'll get a fireteam going for lvl 26, I think bob's in one with some other folks at the moment.
Uno más por favor! PSN's ScrewAttack_ if you don't already have me.

I think so, because you don't have to do additional objectives at all, it's accessible from patrol. And you don't have to intentionally die and reload to the checkpoint. All the enemies you farm in Skywatch are in a cave, so it's like shooting fish in a barrel.
I hear that it's Thorn.
