It won't necessarily be as good as you think. PvP is normalised. Whilst you'll get some nice tree skill stats on it, I doubt it'll be massively more powerful. I'm still gunning high level people down using mostly just my Rare weapons.

I think he means the skill- precision kills cause the target to explode. That's one hell of a skill! Wish my cryptic dragon had that :(

Me and my team are havijg a great fun in Raid for two past nights.

We have to use the tower for the second boss, but we are dying from laughter all the time when we fail and jumping section was one hour of hilarious laugh due to a fact two of us were constantly falling from the edge in the bellow.

We invested 10 hours so far and we arrived at the Vault yesterday to fight the final boss.

We are simply having mad fun and it is not really a frustration, despite it is hard. We are at LV 27/27/26/26/26/26 and only few have Legendary weapons.

It is matter of attitude and mindset of the group. We decided it will be a fun experience and frustration is almost nonexistant, despite the hard challenge.

I was the worst Guardian ever for example, I couldn't jump on ANYTHING as needed for the whole session. But it was damn funny at the end.

It shouldn't be taken too serious. It is a proper challenge, but it is a game that can be beaten. Coordination is needed and some patience. But it is damn worth experience because of the interaction with Team.

I guess if I ever can advance my level again it might be worth it to try the raid with some people. But as it is now, I don't know if I'll like dying a whole lot. I'll need to find a fun team to play with to make the raid worth it. Whats daunting is the 10 hours needed. The raids are so long at this difficulty that I just don't know if I can have the time consistently to do that (especially if it means I'd be affecting the playtime of teammates). If they ever make a simple raid that people who aren't far into post-game can do, maybe I will have time for it...or have time for this one after the semester is done.

Hahaha! I had to a patrol mission today for the "order of cryptarchs". It was finding something or other. Bet they didn't even need it.

I really wish faction weapons and/or armor changed stock at least once a week, with different skill evolutions for the same stuff. Some people find awesome variants of purchasable.

Got my first two purple engrams last night. One from Crucible and one from the level 24 Strike.

Got these from them. I get the feeling from reading everyone else's posts they may be the last two Purples I get.

Ugh game just gave me a third exotic bounty. Was forced to take Toland's Legacy since I already completed Shattered Memory Fragment and am currently waiting for Xur to show up so I can continue the Voice machine gun one.
Damn it game, stop taking up my bounty slots!

Lucky bastard - I haven't gotten a single one! And I've done nearly 50 bounties by now.

How do I join a faction? I have enough crucible marks but I can't buy their emblems.
You want to buy their Class Item (i.e. a bond if you're a Warlock) and equip it. It costs glimmer.

ANYTHING you do for Rep, PvE or PvP, will contribute to the Faction instead of Vanguard/Crucible while you have it active.

do 1 strike after and a purple engram drops, that ends up being the same helmet.

How did they get the total Marks to buy all the gear? All of it cost 315 marks... You should only be able to get like 3 pieces. How the hell did they get the extra 110 marks in 2 weeks? Unless they give you something for level 3 rep?
Do they?

You do get a loyalty gift for reaching level 3 rep, and every level beyond that if Reddit is to be believed, but yeah, if he didn't get anything as a gift then he would have needed to get it from drops.
 
Thanks for the fantastic guide, Hawkian. I tried doing some farming, but got bored as fuck really fast. Not my thing, so I'm just going to enjoy the game and hope the Traveler grants me luck on my quest for Legendary/Exotic items.

Yes. Any rep you get (Crucible or Vanguard) will go to you faction when wearing faction gear. You can buy a class item to start.
Actually the answer to that is no. All Faction vendors require Crucible marks for currency, though you could Rank them up completely in PvP. You at the very least need to participate in between 20 and 30 Crucible matches to be able to afford a legendary piece from a faction vendor. This isn't a bad idea anyway though as that's a lot of XP and loot chances along the way.

Seems like bad luck, until you realize how valuable "junk" purples can be for ascendant shards.... break that ish down

I have completed bounty for exotic handcannon - Thorn.

I'm disappointed. Magazine size of 6, very long reload time, low stability and rate of fire.

This is a very terrible exotic : (

The Devil You Know legendary handcannon give me better feeling.

Fuck did not know this... time to level up my Dead Orbit to level 3.... I fucking stopped at 2 when I could buy armor... I am an idiot!
