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

I know right?

It fucking blows because while I know I'm apparently piss lucky, I can't do the shit I want to do when I see others doing it just fine. I guess I'm envying the minority though. I'm still level 24 and just got my first legendary gear (a coat) because I bought it.

I heard there's a guaranteed Strange Coin from some gold chest quest. Which planet? I know it's not Earth. If I can get that one, and then do the weekly. I'll be able to buy the Sunbreakers if the merchant has them again.

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.

PSN is MBFtrace
 
Welp. Done with the daily heroic. Gor my 5 marks. Only need 55 more and I can buy the last piece of armor I'm planning to buy (i refuse to save up 120 marks for the helmet, and I already plan to get an exotic chest). I guess I'll leave my guy sitting on the moon for public events. Unless somebody recommends another planet for now I'll surf the web and do other shit I gotta do.

lmao all of the subclasses ruined PvP

Funny enough I almost never use my sunbro extra resistance and grenade spam unless I know for a fact there are 2-3 enemies in a spot. And it isn't guaranteed kills.
 
Okay then maybe in about a thousand years I'll get cryptarch rank 2. Game doesnt want to make with the loot.

I've actually been having better luck just running the Vanguard Strikes. I get at least 4 greens and 2 blues per Strike it seems. Still no Legendaries but I refuse to play the Strike before I actually level for it so I've still just been doing the level 20s. Got 22 last night so it's challenge-up time tonight.

Can someone explain to me why Vanguard and Crucible don't have class items to convert rep and marks? At least for Vanguard.

*continues whining about PvE*

Russia's fairly good for PEs. lunlunqq posted this earlier, and so far it's worked for me too:

X:00 At Moth Yards doing PE
X:15 At the Divide doing PE
X:30 Back at Moth Yards doing PE
X:45 Back at the Divide doing PE
(continue on...)

Hmmm. I just wish the public events let you know exactly where it is. Might as well go there though thanks for the heads up. I think the PE's give you less marks there but if they're more frequent might as well go

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.

Yeah I have no idea wtf they were thinking. An important element of war is the element of surprise. There is no surprise when people see you coming from a mile away! Even Halo had a no armor mode along with no shields

Do you guys think Xur will have different items or the same this weekend? I ask because I am going to buy a piece of Legendary gear but would be a bit miffed if Xur has it in Exotic as I have plenty of both Strange Coins and Motes of Light.

I'm Titan, and this past weekend he had Gauntlets.

My guess is that Xur will have all new gear from last week, and that each class's armor piece will be a different part of the body. This will probably continue until he eventually starts to offer past items again. Total speculation.

I missed out on the Titan gauntlet's by half an hour last time. So I went ahead and bought legendary gauntlets from the Titan Vanguard. I expect Xur's next Titan gear to be either a helm, chest or boots.

The devil walkers are piss easy to kill at least. IIRC the walker appears in the divide near the corridor to the mothyards, and the mothyard strike varies a little. I've had ones there that make your travel around the area, warsats etc

The divide one is definitely the easiest.

All the pain the past week is forgotten lol. Still no purple gear though haha. There is hope for everyone out there still, never give up!

Thank you RNGesus for the blessings you have bestowed upon our brother Jinjo that he may spread the good word to all. His faith has been rewarded!

Two level 27's basically carried me through the level 28 Weekly Heroic (I'm level 25). Because of this I got 9 strange coins, brining me to 24 - I may have missed last week's helmet by 1 coin (that I got 22 minutes later...) but now I'm glad I did, as I can buy the exotic weapon!

Granted I've only completed one strike (since THREE times in a row, both teammates ditched halfway through), but I didn't get shit for it. 2 greens I think. But I'll try again.

What are they doing? Just joining matches and going AFK to get the rewards? Seems stupid.

Yep. Join a game, just sit there and wait for the match to end. Free marks, rep, glimmer, and a chance at items. You have to get at least one assist. I just tested it.

At least they're doing it on Rumble and not screwing over a team.

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.

Thanks. I'm guessing besides the time discrepancy there isn't much of a difference?

Anyone on Xbox wanna do the weekly heroic or nightfall strike?

If you will be playing tonight around 7 or so I can hop on. What is your GT? Pretty sure I have added you.

They need to do something about the shotgun and fusion rifle in pvp.

Fusion rifle isn't nearly as bad as shotgun.

AFK farming in Rumble is a thing now, apparently.
I'm shocked it took this long, to be honest.

Yeah, it's like they spent more of their time on that place than others.
LOL first place and no reward.

....are people just venting now, or do they not understand RNG and that anyone can get the loots?
