So I was at "the cave" farming for a while when this happened https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABnRG8GdIgA&feature=youtu.be

Happens in Venus patrol, too. Gets pretty nuts - but very entertaining. Got a Legendary drop during it which...became a low level rare.

 

[jediyoshi]

Wait a sec

You can upgrade sparrows?

You can buy a better sparrow with higher durability and another ability from crucible/vanguard vendors at rep rank 3. Xur also has an item you can use to upgrade them.

Bungie is challenging players?

I challenge Bungie to the Legendary Engram Challenge.

Where they have to go engram farming for legendaries with the current RNG system and get a legendary their class can use, or they have to donate $100 towards the Tower Suicide Watch Association.

 

[Hawkian]

Im done with this until they patch the loot.
My brother has gotten 15 legendary engrams and they all turned out to be blue items weaker than what he has.
I played the strike playlist 4 days in a row and get nada, not going to continue if a legendary drop doesn't actually give shit anyway.

don't worry about engrams man :[ get yourself some gear

Amazing write up Hawk. You make me prouder err'day. Except on Tuesdays, I don't like Tuesdays.

:')

I'm working on a "tips and tricks" post now too

 

[funkypie]

If you got a legendary from every single legendary engram, everyone would have every piece of gear by now.

 

[Pop]

Yup

There just isn't enough variety.

 

[Heroman]

Got a purple from the crypacth. Should I wait for a patch?

 

[Admiral Woofington]

ain't gonna happen, but you might as well save it as it's 99.99999999999999999999% likely it'll be shit

Why isnt not going to happen? It is the biggest complaint people have about the endgame.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Rep is taking forever, not even lv1 yet so im sitting at 24 stuck.

 

[Dany]

now i need some essences from armor

no way to farm that now is there >_>

 

[Lima]

Why isnt not going to happen? It is the biggest complaint people have about the endgame.

Because the legendary items that are actually are in the game are too few in numbers? If I got a legendary each time I had a legendary engram I would have 35 legendary items right now which is like half the game has.

 

[Heroman]

Why are there so few legendary? Is this game suppose to be a loot game.

 

[MidEvlDed]

WTF. I'm trying to go to the tower and all I see is my stupid ship flying. Think the game sort of "froze" without actually freezing. Nothing is loading and I can't go to the options menu. Anyone had this happen?

you should be asking Bungie this not us lol

You can't go to the options menu at all during that process so that's why, but yes I've had it happen, it usually solves itself after a minute or two, never had it get stuck permanently yet.

Couldn't just make legendary engrams rarer?

Me working for Bungie?

Wouldn't that be a...... stretch

?

EH?

EEEEEEEEEEEEH?

It was stuck for 5 minutes. I quit the game and went back in. Seems to be working now.

 

[Dany]

woah, im doing the moon farm, and it brought me back to where i was in the checkpoint.

at least bungie did that.

 

[psylah]

Got my first exotic bounty!

First tier:
5 Strikes without dying.
Easy. Spammed devil's lair, level 8.

Second tier:
Earn a Kills/Death spread of 25 in the Crucible.

At least I get to spam PVP, which I enjoy, and I can get sweet epix doing that.

Maybe I can try going 0 and 25? That is a 25 spread...

 

[blazeuk]

Finally got some Legendary Gloves!


...I bought them from the New Monarchy guy. Still didn't level me up past 24 though!

 

[Cømet]

Rep is taking forever, not even lv1 yet so im sitting at 24 stuck.

Get on the vanguard bounties and do them whilst you farm spinmetal/helium filaments/spirit things/relic iron, then hand them in at the faction of your choice (vanguard, crucible, whatever) and get extra rep. You can do it!

 

[zulfate]

Bungie I love the game but seriously....let me have a remove helmet option por Dios.

 

[BraXzy]

I think the best solution for engrams would be to rework the drop rates so that they are a guarantee. If I got Legendary engrams less often, but I knew it was a guaranteed Legendary it'd feel a lot more satisfying.

Speaking of Legendary Engrams.. the game is actively mocking me. I have one of each secondary as a legendary but any engrams I do get are also secondary :L

 

[Elev8ion]

This game is for folks that don't work or have kids...for Pete's sake, I just can't keep up.

I am going to have to find another game that doesn't keep me up all night.

I haven't even used my Vanguard code....... <sigh<

 

[Vincent Alexander]

I'm trying to dig through old posts....can someone repost links to vids showing good loot loops?

 

[Hawkian]

Have you done all the bounties?

All you need to do is cap marks every week until you're all legendaried out and you'll be "on pace" with everyone else.

 

[Lrrr]

Your character looks eerily similar to mine.

I was disheartened to see the limited character creation options was not just a "beta" thing.

Is your character also a Hunter?

 

[Lima]

Second tier:
Earn a Kills/Death spread of 25 in the Crucible.

The description is wrong. They missed a . in it

It should read get a 2.5 kill death ratio.

So it's really easy. Get 2 or 3 kills in Control and then hide for the rest of match and try not to do. Voila you are done.

You keep butchering these jokes and I'm gonna have to do something.

You're not alone. I have every single bit of kit as legendary/exotic but that primary just will not drop at all. I've decided I'm buying one either from either the vanguard or Xur. The RNG seems to be holding a grudge for my early luck and has left me with the same gun for the past 50 hours as my primary. Never even seen a primary legendary engram yet.

 

[kittens]

Damn Level 26 Weekly. Guess I'm too low @ 24.

Hell, my friends and I couldn't beat it at level 26.

 

[Hawkian]

Assuming your other gear is maxed out upgrade-wise, your first armor upgrade to those gloves will put you at 25.

I'm trying to dig through old posts....can someone repost links to vids showing good loot loops?

Are you just trying to gear up or do you want to run such a loop for other stuff?

 

[iamvin22]

need help GAF. so i just hit lvl 20 and my leveling up bar is gone. do i have to go do something to resume lvling up?

 

[The Librarian]

going to conquer Mars brb

 

[Heroman]

They are all ready very rare

 

[GringoSuave89]

You need to get gear with the Light attribute.

 

[Vincent Alexander]

Ummm...I think both? I'm level 21, and not sure if I need to be farming (not even sure why I need materials) or light gear hunting.

 

[LuchaShaq]

Anyone up for heroic daily? Psn luchashaq just add me

 

[burritosenior]

You know what's frustrating? Doing the Nightfall Strike, getting the boss halfway down in health, have two of your teammates die, and the game immediately kicks you all three back to Orbit as if all three people had died even when #3 didn't take a single point of damage.

I'm depressed.

 

[E92 M3]

Man, the PVP in it's current state is really off putting in it's current state. Rumble used to be a lot of fun, but now it's just shotguns.

 

[iamvin22]

You need to get gear with the Light attribute.

i have 1 item with light attribute. its lvl 20. where can i go to get light gear?

 

[super-famicom]

Most of them are probably using void shotguns to do that stupid exotic bounty.

 

[Byron Bluth]

Woo! Level 26. I assume the last amount of light these armour pieces give you come when you level it up completely?

 

[Trickster]

Woo! Level 26. I assume the last amount of light these armour pieces give you come when you level it up completely?

Armor pieces gain more light everytime you upgrade the armor on them
