Anyone wanna run some heroic strikes? Looking to do the quest for 5 of them. PSN : HTVfanatic. No mic

 

[brianjones]

No, but maybe you know where I can find some cursed thrall in that joint?

I remember one of the story missions had some cursed thralls at the end when fighting the taken

also the ogre rune boss in court of oryx where he only takes damage from thrall explosions

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

ugh. hate not knowing things. if he comes with just one item, im going to be very disappointed. I havnt felt this under powered in a looong time. lookin forward to getting powered up again.

Man you don't even need to do strikes, all you need to level up is engrams. Just follow the tried and true method of doing them one at a time and equipping the highest light level every time (like if you just got something sweet, equip it for the next engram decode) and you'll gain a steady 3 or 4 light after every activity.

It's kind of amazing. There's absolutely no cap or barrier to entry. You can walk into the raid tomorrow in all blues. I know I probably will be.

Here's the thing though. You can probably get into the raid in blues but I am 100% sure that you will need the MECHANICS and FLEXIBILITY of legendaries to actually beat it.

It's remarkable how smooth they've made the climb. And how fun and exciting and diverse every step of it is.

I can't seem to punch those guys to death and have it count toward the bounty...

Edit: does anyone want to do court of Oryx? I'd really like to finish it.

 

[gutter_trash]

It looks like Xur will still sell one piece of armour for each class.

thank God, I really want that Mysterio helmet

 

[robertlebrone]

It's actually pretty easy, me and 2 other players around the 270 mark got through it without much trouble.

Oh ok, well in that case anyone 270+ for the NF?

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

I'm looking to complete the quest SUMMONING CIRLE.

If anyone is interested, message me on PSN at Bitmapfrogs.

Thanks.

 

[Twilight Gap]

[TheTylerDurden]

one more for vanguard heroic strike. anybody?

sure I can come in 2 mins

 

[noomi]

I did it in rumble lol wasn't too bad xD

Same here, all you need to do is get the heavy and have a good HMG. I used the BTRD, went for a 16 kill streak with it.

 

[Robdraggoo]

I'm #Forever265 because the game won't unlock my Artifact slot for my Hunter.

I'm so salty right now.

how did that even happen. I thought the story quest gave you an artifcat

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Wtf?

Same happened to me. The quest is busted for me. But I found an artifact through engrams eventually.

 

[Zeus7]

The last word quest done, sorry to everyone in party chat. I got very angry...

Never again!

What is the reward for this quest?

 

[Twilight Gap]

I am.

X_Magik_ox psn

sure I can come in 2 mins

whoops saveweyard beat ya to it. i'll be running them all day though so will let ya'll know when a spot opens.

 

[HTVfanatic]

What is the reward for this quest?

Chaperone, exotic shotgun

 

[MandrakeUK]

Remnants of darkness quest didn't give me marks, Im fucking furious.

 

[all of my hate]

I didn't get it and I finished both Taken War: Petra and Wolves of Mars. Still not sure what triggers it, but Queen's wrath level might be the issue. Mine's pretty low.

I'm level 6 with Varisk & Petra and don't have exotic anything from Year 2.

 

[Robdraggoo]

The last word quest done, sorry to everyone in party chat. I got very angry...

ill give you 10 bucks to do it for me
#cashforchaperone

 

[X-Frame]

Welp, couldn't solo Irxori in Skywatch. That guy is an absolute huge bastard. I'm 279 Light too.

 

[Terrordactyl]

Yes. The Eris quest where you have to complete 6 tier 1 Court of Oryx events, 3 tier 2, and a tier 3.

Tier 3 can also drop 300 Artifacts if you're lucky. But completing the Eris quest guarantees you one.

Where does the quest chain start?

 

[TheTylerDurden]

whoops saveweyard beat ya to it. i'll be running them all day though so will let ya'll know when a spot opens.

ok sent you a fr

 

[Renta]

Nightfalls no longer give the xp boost?

 

[EroticSushi]

Yes. The Eris quest where you have to complete 6 tier 1 Court of Oryx events, 3 tier 2, and a tier 3.

Tier 3 can also drop 300 Artifacts if you're lucky. But completing the Eris quest guarantees you one.

When do you pick that quest up?

 

[Kyoufu]

how did that even happen. I thought the story quest gave you an artifcat

Yeah, didn't get it.

 

[Anastasis]

Mine was only at rank 2. Did you do the Lost and Found mission? If it's not there, it might show up tomorrow.

I did lost and found and got no exotic. It was really strange.

 

[rNilla]

• Note on decrypting engrams: if you're decrypting a stack of engrams, look at each new item you get and if it is an upgrade, equip it before decrypting your next engram.

OK, so is this for real or is this Year 2's "Speaker Emblems affect your stats and drop rates?"

I did notice the Cryptarch won't let me speed through decryption anymore by rapidly pressing X.

 

[FyreWulff]

Yeah, didn't get it.

Did you try redownloading your licenses or setting your PS4 as your primary PS4?

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

I'm #Forever265 because the game won't unlock my Artifact slot for my Hunter.

I'm so salty right now.

have you done the 2nd story mission? it won't unlock until you get an artifact reward from vanguard which then unlocks the slot

 

[noomi]

What is the reward for this quest?

Chaperone, an exotic shotgun.

ill give you 10 bucks to do it for me
#cashforchaperone

Hah, no.... Fuck nope

 

[Renta]

This is for real. The higher your light, the higher light of gear that drops for you

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

you can just 'cheese' it in clash

 

[StrikeNinja24]

I really hate this TLW quest.

its a fact. its the way the leveling system works, get incremental gains . its level 20-24 grind all over again.

 

[igordennis]

Im looking to do the nightfall. Robert you still looking?

 

[Ambitious]

I'm gonna join you for four. No mic either.

This year it's real

 

[Jafku]

Im looking to do the nightfall. Robert you still looking?

Same here

 

[Madness]

Should I dismantle these supposed test weapons? I mean I'm only a low level and it says level 38 required. Cannot store them in vault, they're just taking up space? I don't know why they'd even allow people to acquire them if you are brand new to the game and a low level.

 

[Deku Tree]

I really miss that 1000 faction rep per week 3x from doing NF plus Weekly.

 

[Zoidberg]

Welp, couldn't solo Irxori in Skywatch. That guy is an absolute huge bastard. I'm 279 Light too.

Ghorn still does really well for these guys, I've soloed all the earth ones with it.

Also the artifact grind is painful. All other gear is nearing 280+ and my artifact is 255.

 

[brianjones]

I really hate this TLW quest.

everyone in my party was real sour about it last night in crucible

it makes dying really stressful especially since the gun kinda stinks now

thankfully at least sniper shotgun heavy super kills count

 

[Born2Live]

Lieutenant hunting on Mars if anyone is interested.

[Namikaze1]

The last word quest done, sorry to everyone in party chat. I got very angry...

Never again!

Out of all the quests, I hated this one the most. You saw the vid I posted earlier in the day of when I completed it? I got so pissed off. I took my anger out on the enemy team. Went on a 17 killstreak before being stopped. By then, I had went from 43% to finally completing it.

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

No Destiny until Sunday afternoon for me. I'm fiending right now.

Beast mode activated

Got the CE and the stuff is really nice. I think Josh wants the patch for his book bag

 

[void666]

Spent tons of heavy ammo synths to increase my dead orbit rep. Got ravenant, bittersteel and an omolon scout rifle with hand laid stock and firefly.

 

[Namikaze1]

Yeah thats easy though, nami told me the secrets earlier

It's faster too.

It's 6% per Tortured Knight kill while it's 3% per guardian kill.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

have you done the 2nd story mission? it won't unlock until you get an artifact reward from vanguard which then unlocks the slot

It's busted. Trust me. I tried everything and the same happened to me.

 

[Hawkian]

Use a Shotgun to defeat Guardians in the Crucible and high-level minions of the Darkness

Hmm, I'm not sure what you mean. Sounsd like just player kills and major/ultra PvE kills with a shotgun, right?

Asked in the other thread as well but I'm still new and at like level 5, I got all these weapons that were available to acquire for free, but they're all like level 38 required, 200 attack. Since I'm nowhere close, what do I do? I can't store them in the vault for some reason and they're taking up a lot of the gun space. Should I dismantle them or no?

Also, which faction is best to join early on?

So I'm thinking you mean the gunsmith weapons? Just dismantle them.

Faction is totally personal preference. You might want to look at their inventories and see what appeals to you most. Or read up on their lore if you're into that sort of thing

 

[Kyoufu]

Cayde's Stash? Yeah, did that.
