I just added you.

my gt is: NJ Shlice

I play around 7pm to 12a EST

I added both of you guys. Also EST

Deaths are already stupid quick, the AR just takes the cake at being the best at close AND medium range, it only needs another little downgrade to bring it on par with other weapons.

Because it's a full auto weapon also means more chance of landing a shot compared to say the handcannons, where one miss can cost half a second in battle, AR's don't usually get that kind of miss punishment.

I understand, but I'm saying they should just buff the other weapons and leave the AR as is. It's just that I am still bitter that they nerfed the carbine in Halo 3 when it was perfectly suitable to fight the BR. I'm a believer that if everything is OP then nothing is OP.

First off, wow OT3 already, impressive. Also i'm loving the title.

Got myself an exotic body armor for my Warlock from a legendary engram.
Voidfang Vestments.

Lucky bastards....all of you!

 

[Evil Beaver]

Damn I hope not. I was doing it last night and it worked fine.

Ah, then it's probably just bad luck. RNGesus plz!

off-topic: If there's an exotic shotgun that's equippable in your primary weapon slot does that mean there are other special weapons you can equip as primaries?

 

[RoboPlato]

Yup. I don't see why not. I got both the trophy and the bounty for not dying in a strike on Easy mode Devil's Lair.

There's an easy mode? Whenever I go to do a Strike there's no difficulty select outside of the playlist.

 

[Gritesh]

Desperately need some gaffers to play with on Psn

I'm lvl 22 right now been pretty much playing the entire game solo but I'm going to want to do the raid and stuff when I can and I got no nobody to do it with.

Psn is Gritesh

 

[Hollow]

How do you get into the Nightfall Weekly? Unless I'm wrong.

There's this new icon in the Vanguard Playlist area at the top above the four other Vanguard stuff. It's at level 28. It's labeled Nightfall as well. Are you folks playing that one?

They're the same.

None of my friends are high enough level to help me with the weekly strike.

 

[Revolutionary]

Man, the people around me are really unoriginal with their usernames. Every time I go into the Tower there's at least one Brooklyn and/or 420 related username. -facepalm

My favorite are the ones like 'VideoGamer13'

ha nice reference. That H3 beta carbine was awesome.

 

[Xamtheking]

So early this morning I got an invite from a friend to do the nightfall strike and it took us two hours but we beat it and this is what we got as a reward.



I feel bad cause this is my second exotic weapon, third exotic drop lol

THAT PERK THOU

 

[Polarburr]

Am I the only one trying to level up both my Vanguard rank and my faction rank? man, its tiring. I probably spent 2hrs doing strikes for my vanguard rank and 3hrs doing crucible for my dead orbit rank. It's quite hassle having to equip my Dead Orbit bond every time i do pvp though. haha

 

[Grisby]

Need one more for Heroic weekly strike on PS4.

edit-Nevermind. Full up.

 

[Afrocious]

Does anyone have a good tip for building up Singsinger? Since I can't level up any more and already have Voidwalker almost maxed out, it takes forever to make progress in the subclass.

When I started, I would do all my PvE stuff in Sunsinger and do PvP with Voidwalker. Starting a new subclass is rough because you have no abilities at all. You can't even double jump or use supers.

I say patrol a bunch on your subclass and do a bunch of easy missions/strikes. When you finally have a double jump, Super, and a grenade, move on to strikes at your current level. For Sunsinger, you'll be more of a support role in the beginning by killing trash so other teammates can get orbs.

 

[Bunta]

Any folks wanna do some Nexus farming for half an hour or so?

psn: moobabe (PS4)

Added, PSN is Daraman.

Anyone else for Nexus farming? Just 30 min or so.

 

[Jarmel]

I have two exotic weapons, one exotic weapon bounty.

I have zero fucking legendary armor pieces. The shit I actually need, I have none of. Oh I did get one exotic armor but it's for the wrong class.

Game is beyond infuriating. The lack of basic, and I mean basic, social features makes the whole game more frustrating than it needs to be.

 

[Skele7on]

You and I pretty much have the same hunter =/

Nice great minds buddy!

Did they hotfix some of these farming routes? I did Nexus and the re-spawning chests in Mars routes and only got Glimmer and greens. 0 engrams whatsoever.

Oh what can someone prove/disprove this please?!

This will quite literally ruin my evening and attempts to gear up for the raid tomorrow.

Say it isn't so!

yeah man give me an hour?

That was my basic strategy. I also switch to Sunsinger whenever I turn in a bounty.

 

[Homeboyd]

I really need a group now that I'm level 24 and need to manually assemble a fireteam for Nightfall and Weekly strikes.

I'm in GAF NA East 5, but there isn't much activity.

If anyone is down, my tag on X1 is Ash and Blood. I typically play around 9pm EST on weekdays and whenever on weekends.

I just added you.

my gt is: NJ Shlice

I play around 7pm to 12a EST

Added you both. GT: Homeboyd903, lvl 24 titan.

 

[Dubz]

Does the Sunsinger super buff your fire power and armor or just nades and melee?

 

[Anoregon]

Yup. I don't see why not. I got both the trophy and the bounty for not dying in a strike on Easy mode Devil's Lair.

Ok, that's good to know. Sadly the crucible parts won't be as smooth sailing. I am bad. I actually had a 0.19 KDR in a game the other day. Literally just respawn and get smoked 20 seconds later for the duration of the game.

 

[Daemul]

So, wheres the best place to farm 500 Hive souls on the moon?

 

[arimanius]

Man, the people around me are really unoriginal with their usernames. Every time I go into the Tower there's at least one Brooklyn and/or 420 related username. -facepalm

Not everyone can be as revolutionary in their names as you. ;P

 

[Chaostar]

So, here's where I'm at...

Should be 26 in time for raid. Any gaffers who want to jump in anytime Wednesday add me on psn: Chaostar
UK

With as many people complaining about drops, you might be.

Like I've been saying, it's useless trying to game the RNG.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Does anyone have a good tip for building up Singsinger? Since I can't level up any more and already have Voidwalker almost maxed out, it takes forever to make progress in the subclass.

A neat DestinyHack I saw was to complete bounties with your high level Subclass active but then turn them in with the Subclass you're trying to level activated.

 

[Namikaze1]

This is what accepting the get 20 double fusion rifle kills bounty feels like

It's SO ANNOYING

Old Russia. Right where the stairway to three hallowed give enemies are at, are about four enemies. I farmed that damn and the one nearby for thatfucking bounty. Never again am I accepting that one.

Edit: there's was an easier method?! I spent half an hour doing this bounty. -__-

 

[ElRenoRaven]

So yea someone fill me in on the nightfall strikes. I know you have to be at least 25 and have 3 people. What's it like?

 

[hydruxo]

Does anyone have a good tip for building up Singsinger? Since I can't level up any more and already have Voidwalker almost maxed out, it takes forever to make progress in the subclass.

Do bounties with Voidwalker equipped, then switch to Sunsinger when you turn them in. Boom, instant Sunsinger upgrades without even using it.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

Man, the people around me are really unoriginal with their usernames. Every time I go into the Tower there's at least one Brooklyn and/or 420 related username. -facepalm

I keep finding ones like IPWNNOOBS and ME=WIN. I don't get it, it's like they want pressure to live up to the name....and they never do.

 

[Moobabe]

Ace - one more for Nexus farming?

 

[crashnburn]

Its awfully hard to keep up with this thread, so can someone give me the tl;Dr summary of the most effective way to use my time after lvl 20? Thanks!!!

 

[Daemul]

Honestly, the Exotic weapon bounty seems more trouble than it's worth. I'd rather just play PvP and get enough strange coins to buy the exact exotic weapon I actually want, since we are only allowed to equip one exotic weapon anyway.

 

[The Lamonster]

What are exotic bounties for? Does completing them give you an exotic piece of gear?

 

[-tetsuo-]

Just found out that the raid does not have matchmaking. Why do I still have this game.

 

[Hip Hop]

What's this Nexus farming and Crucible 2nd levels you guys are speaking of?

I'm playing the game and still have no clue what stuff is. Almost done with it too and playing a lot of Pvp.

 

[Afrocious]

Do bounties with Voidwalker equipped, then switch to Sunsinger when you turn them in. Boom, instant Sunsinger upgrades without even using it.

I just did the Vanguard bounties with the subclass and turned them in regardless.

That's a good tip for doing Crucible bounties though.

 

[Bunta]

Need one more for Nexus farming. PSN: Daraman

 

[Namikaze1]

What are exotic bounties for? Does completing them give you an exotic piece of gear?

Yes. Weapons so far though.
The bounties are roughly four parts long so it will take a while to complete. You recieve a mail with a Exotic Bounty Ticket. You hand it in to the bounty bot, and have a choice of three bounties. You can only pick one. From there, like said above, it's four parts long.

 

[Shiera Seastar]

The Raid stays open permanently, right? I don't have to be ready tomorrow?

 

[LollipoPReapeR]

Does the Sunsinger super buff your fire power and armor or just nades and melee?

It can buff armour and nades + melee. Or it can buff nades and melee for everyone but no armour buff for you

Personally I'm not a big fan.

Also can you really get an exotic bounty for completing 5 strikes without dying? Do they have to be in a row?

 

[Stairouais]

I'm in!

[Bravo123]

I wish people would play the Control game type properly.
I feel like I'm the only one that is staying back and defending a flag.

 

[todahawk]

I like auto rifle and sniper. The Shingen-E seems popular here but I don't like it as much as the other auto rifle I have, the Surrender A. Maybe when the Shingen is fully upgraded I will like it more. As for a sniper, you have to be good at headshots to use one, which I surprisingly am.

I have a Bronzed Miyamoto with max rate of fire and a 67 round clip that i'm messing with. Stability could be better but I have a Shingen E with high stability that I have all leveled up as well. Keeping both for now.

Primary is an AR, secondary is my full auto shotty, heavy is a rocket launcher with cluster bomb secondary detonations.

 

[Tawpgun]

Did they change the weekly strike or is it still Devils Lair with Arc Burn?

Yeah man lol. Raids are not temporary things that are locked off

 

[purg3]

Bungie, please add the rep progression meters in the menu please. I hate having to go back to the tower to see how much more I need.

Also being able to toggle waypoints and mission icons would be good too!

 

[Misterthirsty]

Anyone who is still around level 14/15 and wants to play the campaign and the strikes add me on xone, misterthirsty.

Normally play after 10pm weeknights.

Playing the strikes and having people quit midway through is no good.

 

[Daemul]

When did Bungie say trading was being added in? Because I might actually bother to finish the Exotic bounty for the Depleted Hand Cannon, if I am going to be able to trade it for an Exotic Auto Rifle.

 

[Polarburr]

With as many people complaining about drops, you might be.

Like I've been saying, it's useless trying to game the RNG.

lol. i cant decide between Vanguard or Dead Orbit. But if I'm not mistaken, it's harder to get rep for Vanguard right? Sicne you can only get rep for bounties and strikes. Unlike Crucible rep where you can get it from doing everything. Lol.

 

[ultron87]

Just found out that the raid does not have matchmaking. Why do I still have this game.

I'm beginning to think that the Raids not having matchmaking is mostly the result of the baffling decision not to let people talk in Matchmade fireteams.
