Nice and rep doesn't have a cap like marks? Correct?

Man that farm spot. Wow. Already peeps there but just jumped into the mix. 3 blues in maybe 6 minutes and like 10 greens. Turned on a hive glimmer item and was making some good glimmer too.
Sometime soon Bungie is going to kill low level RNG I think
First time trying it. Will def do it a lot tomorrow for motes and special coins

Why is the moon map part of clash ? We never end up finishing that game before timer runs out.

Wow, Exodus Blue is awful. It's like they made the map then decided to dump a bunch of shit everywhere so you can't see anything.
No cap for rep, you get +10 for each patrol mission. +10 for losing in crucible, +25 for winning and bounties range from +50 to 100 I believe.
Reddit, so pinch of salt and all that but I wasn't getting anything apart from 1 green in 20 minutes
I dunno, I've been doing alright with a mix of scout and shotgun. Not top of the charts but not bottom either.
I'm farming Crota right now and getting a bunch of stuff

No, only crucible marks can be used for factions. Also you wont get vanguard rep if your doing faction rep. You have to choose who u want 1st. Vanguard /Crucible or faction.
Good to know!

I so love hand cannons. You can kill shotgunners before they close enough to do any real damage, and long ranged weapons can't get a good enough aim on you with those super high impact stats you're inflicting on them.love the feeling of my skill painstakingly improving... hand cannons ya'll
At least that's my theory, i'm not really sure how good inpact damage actually is. I only use handcannons because for some reason I only ever get scout rifles and hand cannons to drop, and who wants to use a scout rifle?

Don't like using it with my bladedancer either, but it can be pretty useful for dodging high level enemies in strikes.

yes. You can work on reputation as much as you want. I have a few people on my friends list rank 4 in the crucible. I hit rank 3 vanguard yesterday.
Yes choosing a faction matters alot. Depends how do you play. Do you wanna use supers and grenades more? Supers and melee? Grenade and mele?
yo dog, you do the vault of glass yet?
I love the music for that fight.

Oh cool wavedashing! Too bad Bladedancer got cut in Brawl. Maybe as DLC for the Wii U Smash?
Also:
http://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheG...atistics_we_decoded_590_engrams_here_are_the/
Some statistics by a guy on Reddit.
(small sample size of 55)
PURPLE ENGRAM RARITY:
White: 0
Green: 2 \ 3.64%
Blue: 33 \ 60%
Purple: 19 \ 34.55%
Yellow: 1 \ 1.82%
Seems a bit generous. I reckon with a bigger sample size the purples might be around 20% or so on average.

Three legendary weapons and two boots today. Sadly, both boots are for a different class than me, but happy with my weapons.
So I just got done doing the Nightfall strike and I think I found a pretty damn good strategy for Phogoth.
First off, it's a really good idea to have a void Sniper Rifle, Fusion Rifle, Rocket Launcher, and/or Machine Gun. One of the modifiers is Void Burn, which increases void damage from ANY source, including your own grenades, supers, weapons, etc. A lot of people don't realize that it affects us as well as the enemies. Make sure to buy some Special/Heavy Ammo Packs because you won't be seeing many ammo drops.
So after you get past the 3 waves at the door and make your way past the Circle of Bones you'll get to this hallway...
First off you need to clear out the Hive that are there with the boss to begin with. After that aggro Phogoth, head back here, and attack him from the doorway.
So attack Phogoth from the doorway, when adds get close or shrieker spawns head back to the hallway and wait for despawn, then rinse and repeat.
Hope this helps, good luck Guardians!

This is where you're going to spend most of the fight.
First off you need to clear out the Hive that are there with the boss to begin with. After that aggro Phogoth, head back here, and attack him from the doorway.
Now the trick with this room is that after a good 10-15 seconds there will be a shrieker that spawns and WILL one shot you. So you gotta head back to the hallway to despawn him. After that you can go back to the doorway and attack Phogoth. Now the shrieker isn't the only problem, you're going to have a TON of adds. When they get close to the doorway head back to the hallway and wait for them to despawn. Though we did encounter some Thralls and Knights that liked to hang out right in front of the door and we had to take them out.

nah. Gonna do it the weekend after this as I have a specific group of 4 friends we're doing it with. If you want to do it then/again by that time I'll let you know though we'll need a sixth.
scout rifles are viable but auto rifles sadly smoke them. The only gun I'd say is truly unusuable in pvp is the pulse rifle.
Hey me too!i'm hoarding legendary engrams in my vault
It takes some getting used to but it's now one of my favorite anythings ever

Has Skywatch yielded any Legendary engrams for anyone lately?
I farmed it with 2 peeps last night for a couple hours, got none... got quite a few rare engrams though, mostly turned out to be crud
I find farming quite relaxing... like a massage of loot.

I certainly see your points of difference from the guide, but I think we all owe a loot debt to Diablo on some level. Cases of players receiving loot for other classes will be familiar to D3 players, especially back in Vanilla. It's a rookie loot table structure mistake. Hopefully Bungie keeps an open mind and doesn't become too invested in their existing system. Because man the game has potential.
And a failure in communicating the terms of the loot structure can be a fatal error. If the player cannot discern the potential for rewards intuitively then the system loses its hook. It's complex for logical reasons yet ultimately self defeating results.

today for an hour netted me 4 or 5
I actually found that my time with the pulse rifle was as productive as my time with scout rifles. Both are usable(best at long range), but on most maps the auto-rifle is a better choice. Handcannons kind of occupy a strange space, though. You'll win most one on one battles at short-medium range if you hit with every shot and get headshots, but if you miss one shot you're dead. AR's are a lot less risky.

Haha.. I've not encountered any Skywatch trolls yet, did have some peeps go sit in the cave for a while... I just kept shooting them in the face until they got the message...
I wish chat bubbles existed sometimes, "Get out of the cave please" would have been easier to say than 10000 bullets to ones grill.
I sent you one. We're already at the endboss but it's just 2 of us so it's rough.

Obviously then, the RNG gods are angry with me.... "Why oh great ones do you smite me so with your blue engrams that turn out to be green filth?".
I wonder what I did to anger them...
Thanks what about supers and grenades for my Alt?
