Not sure about tracking, I heard it's mild and won't 100% hit the target if it's moving quickly but I have not had one to test.
 
I cant even

Im on my phone, so I cannot post screen shots right now, but the gist of the exotic is that it is a scout rifle primary. Called the Mida Multi-Tool. It looks fairly generic, but its abilities are game changing.

First it turns the outside ring of your scope into your radar, so you can see your radar even when scoped.

It comes with super fast reloading and quick scope built in without needing to be upgraded first. The weapon also boosts your base movement speed.

All of this is icing on the cake to its most important ability. There is a visible radar on the side of the gun that you can watch while you move around. At first I thought it was just for show, but then I noticed it would start getting brighter and glow when I was aimed in a specific direction. When I moved in that direction it glows brighter and starts to hum.

Its like a metal detector built into a gun. It finds nodes and chests in the area. I cannot tell you how many hidden caves and rooms I have found exploring because of this thing.

It makes farming for mats painless and fast.

The fact that they thought ahead enough to implement that level of utility into a gun amazes me.

They stack?


Wait a fucking minute! Summoning Pits is both the Weekly Strike AND the Nightfall strike?! Fuck me!

I'm pretty sure they do. Lvl 28 rewards should show 9 coins. And yup. :( At least you can respawn on the weekly strike, lol.
If you're going straight to lvl 28, I'll go. I already did lvl 26.

What's a good way to get Vanguard rank? I've tried doing patrols and what not, but the +10 is abysmal. Maybe the problem is that I am playing too much crucible and random strikes here and there. Ranking it takes so long =/

Ok, now those are the kind of unique weapon effects we need to see more of in the game. It needs to go beyond simply "faster cooldown", "larger mag", "reduced recoil", etc... Give us some crazy, or at least immediately identifiable, attributes to legendaries and exotics.

Damn, I thought I was going to get 18 Coins. :(
Alright, 28 it is.

Have you guys figured out the public event schedule yet? As of now, I noticed that fallen walkers spawn on:

Old Russia - The Divide
Moon - Anchor of light
Venus - Ember Caves

They all spawn approx. at xx:15 and xx:45 of every hour. Sometimes you will have a "kill the target" event on the Moon instead of the walker.

I can't seem to find any Goliath public event on Mars, and it's kind of a shame.

You can just do 28 and get them all at once, I think.

This.

You can get total of 9 coins from weekly strike. So if you go and do 28 straight away you get all 9, but if you do e.g. 24 first you get 6 coins, can't get any from 22 and 3 from 28. I think if you do 22 first you then can get 3 from 24 and 28.

I still need 28 one so I could get last 3 missing coins, on PS4 ;)

Also I think Weekly & Nightfall Strike are always same.

I firmly believe ALL legendary engrams yield legendary gear, but the Cryptarch switches them out with shitty blues and hoards all the purples under that counter behind him.

I kinda wanted the Exotic sniper that cloaks you when you crouch, but I'll be damned if this doesn't sound perfect. I'll be happy with any exotic scout rifle at some point, but this one sounds perfect.

On another note, work is only 2 hours old and all I want to do is go home and play. This thread is both helping and hurting. I still need to wreck the weekly strike for my coins, I'll drop my psn id in here tonight when I get home and see if anyone wants to get a group going.

Bounties. Always bounties. If you've done all of them for the day already, Lvl 24 strikes are second-best (unless you've capped your marks for the week).

Yeah, no one has invincibility. It's pretty easy to shut down arc blade users if you see them coming. I have no idea what you mean by "resets the super meter." I'm guessing you've never even used the ability. It's the same deal when I shotgun a titan or warlock right as they get their super off. They live, I die, no big deal.

How do you shut down blade dancers? In PvP I've entered entire clips in to them before and barely even dented their shields.

Entire clips of what? Auto rifles/machine guns are a bad choice for a rampaging arc blade because of their speed. You want a shotgun blast to the head, sniper rifle headshot if you're far away, fusion rifle, or rocket. Also most other supers are hard counters to arc blade.

IF you can avoid one, avoid it. That speed + lag (on any end) and you're asking for nothing but a headache.

Also - there's no reason why every single Gunslinger shouldn't have Combustion
