Quite honestly, I've been expecting this as soon as I saw loot was rewarded randomly. Well, "randomly". But, I think it's random.
Ayup
. I am dreading this.I'm assuming this is a glitch, 87 Light?
Pretty happy with my Titan so far. once I get my legendary helmet on Tuesday or Wednesday I will be even happier.

We went into the level 24 strike playlist and got the Nexus strike. We weren't planning on Nexus farming when we got to the spot but on the way two of us found purple engrams dropped from previous battles... so we are like "Well, we HAVE to spend some time Nexus Farming now if its gonna be like this."
Did it for about 15 minutes and I think I got one blue and no one else got anything. Lazy.

Had to watch that a couple times before I realised that I actually did hit with the knife. And that's the infamous Shingen-E in action, btw.
Yup the shingen-E has such a fantastic rate of fire yet very little recoil. With a clip of around 35 you can easily take down 2 guardians with headshots before reloading. It's by far the best all round PVP weapon.
Thus is why vita remote play ftw. Shingen bought!
I still can't decide which way is more efficient to farm vanguard rep, strike playlist or patrol missions. Strike you get 25 rep on the lvl 24 playlist, patrol missions you usually get 10 sometimes more for the target missions. Strike takes anywhere from 30-40 min where a patrol can be done in about 10 or so, sometimes less. Really want to get rank 2 tomorrow but this is a lot more of a pain than it was to get New Monarchy to about 2.5 right now.

I have the cryptarch ranked up to 8 and he still routinely fucks me. I'm not sure what good his rank is (besides the rewards after level up)
Eh, just fill out bounties and switch the Scout Rifle to the equipped position before you turn them all in
.I am up for it since I haven't done it yet either.
Rep? Patrol missions, hand down, no question, especially as you can see what the type of bounty mission is before you pick it up based on its symbol. Makes it very easy to cherry pick Kill X ones and Kill Targets (which net you the 25).
I tore into them extensively last night, went from 49 to 89 vanguard marks as well while doing the patrol missions.
A new day a new set of bounties! Let's make it legendary.
To those levelling up Rahool through buying his stuff, why? You know it's a hell of a lot quicker to get him to decrypt stuff you bring right? Go do some strikes, maybe get some legendary engrams if you're lucky, then go see him.

Still no Legendaries yet, but I did get the one exotic that I've been drooling over forever:
oh its coming
I wish I was good enough with the muscles in my hands to use single shot weapons. Alas, I am not...damn Muscular Dystrophy. Although, the Stranger's Rifle with the auto mod is nice.
Anyone have suggestions for an Auto Rifle for next week? I am eyeballing Doctor Nope.

Actually that would explain it. I was comparing it to the ingame screen. And all those people asking about your light level being way high might be misreading it as I did. I was expecting it to be the light level than your actual total light stat.
Dang I'm jealous.
Gonna have to start bringing my vita into work just to buy stuff haha
I think I'm gonna try both tonight as I'm also on the reputation hunt.
If I can just stick to the "kill X amount of mobs" missions while on patrol I think it'll reap the best time/rep ratio.
Wow thanks for the information!

Anyone know what the spare slots under ghosts in your inventory will be used for ?
What is the reward for finding all dead ghosts?

which icon is that, or better yet is there an icon legend, I'm still not sure what all of them are.

Does anyone know specifically when the Vault of Glass (Raid) opens?
There's conflicting information from Bungie. The weekly update stated that so long as it's the 16th somewhere in the world, it'll be open. Their Twitter however, says it's 2am PST time (Tuesday)

Watch as you get the godawful Fusion Rifle bounty.

In comparison with the Shingen-E, I found the blue Galahad E was just as good if not better. It had better range and impact in a trade for a slightly slower fire rate. Found that it makes it easier to control the gun in PvP. This is coming from a guy who idolised the Shingen C in the beta. Also anyone use the Silver Hushwind? High level Shingen E pretty much.

One spot left for Nexus farming
PSN: DutchCrusader
Does Nexus farming even work anymore? I just did 2 hours of it and have 65 plasteel platings to show for it, nothing more.
The Kill Target ones look like the ones that also show over the Kill Targets head.
The Kill X ones are similar I think.
IMO Farming in Destiny without getting marks up somehow is a waste of time.
Yeah legendary weapons also give ascendant energy as well.

This also has a lot of luck associated with it. The first time I got a lot of decent blues. Second time I got my legendary boots. Third time I got fuck all cept a higher level cryptarch.
I have both the Galahad-E and the Shingen-E, will try them tonight. Thanks for the breakdown.
Any thoughts on Doctor Nope?

Time to farm for legendaries. Who's down for some nexus farming?

Same. Any advice on the best way to level up after reaching level 20? I'm on 23 now, but trying to find out the best way to get to 26 in prep for the raid tomorrow.
Agreed. I'm enjoying the game alot but there are some frustrating design choices that just baffle me at times.
okay cool. Welp looks like I know what I'm grinding today...I take it cosmodrome is best place since they are low lvl and can probably breeze through them. Get the same amount of rep anyway.

I need a Shingen-E for pvp
Someone said it was at the gunsmith then I realised I was 20 pages behind...
I received an AR rifle in the crucible as a reward and it can tussle with the Shingen. It's a workhorse; below are stat comparisons - my bad though it's from the mobile app as I'm at work right now. The stats for each are compared to my currently equipped scout rifle.
Hushwind has significantly higher attack (does not matter for normal crucible pvp however)
They both have the same rate of fire.
They both have the same impact.
Hushwind has better range.
Shingen has better stablility, but I can tell you the Hushwind's recoil is negligible.
Hushwind has faster reload.
Shingen has 2 extra bullets in clip.
Edit: Oops, I'm seeing it's called Salvage mode, and it was only from Sept 12-14. Sorry!
I'm probably just a goof (as I'll prove in just a moment), but I can't see Relic Hunter as a multiplayer option anymore.
I accidentally deleted the game (there's the proof I mentioned, I meant to just close the application), and after redownloading the mode simply isn't there. Just Control, Clash, Rumble, and Skirmish are listed.
I'm playing on PS4, and am level 10 if it matters.
So does any one know why this would be?

Just keep getting marks and rep.
Vanguard and Crucible for life.
Honestly though, the most EFFECTIVE way to get both high level blues, shots at legendary gear, reps toward an endgame vendor and marks is to stay playing Crucible and doing its bounties. I wouldn't be surprised if I had both Rank 2 by tonight.
Added, PSN is Daraman.

Oh yeah. As I've said before, there is no better combination of stats than high rate of fire + low recoil. You fire way more bullets AND they land where you want them to. If it weren't for Titans constantly smashing me to death I'd feel bad for using that gun.

I use the lvl 20 Hushwind, good gun for sure.
+1 for the Titan hate.

Also, Sunsinger in PvP once you get the sticky grenades is hilarious. Fuck Nova Bomb. I turn Super Saiyin and start slinging grenades left and right while taking less damage and can generate a fucking overshield over my damn overshield.
