They increased his total rep required amount to 3000 instead of 2500 with the patch. So technically you didn't lose anything.

So, do I just post here if I want to sort out a group for a raid?
I've finally decided after a year, and (including the alpha, beta) 150 hours of playing, that I kind of want to give the raids a go.

I'm pretty excited for all the new players that will be joining us on the 15th
Gonna be a lot of Kinderguardians
FROVA in the house
TTK bringing everyone back to the yard
If someone wants the Excel workbook, let me know. I don't even know how to do a simple group by + count in Excel. I can easily do it in SQL haha. I can make a table and whatnot but I wanted to use Pivot Tables. Anyways...
Enjoy!
Missed this post.... I am the #2 poster to Nami.. Yet I was the top poster in only one OT. Wow.
Still not where I want to be with Crucible. I'm getting kills though.
I got Mark of the Devourer on my Thorn and none of the attack upgrades afterward. The gun does kill in three shots, but I don't like aiming it for kills. Perhaps my aim sucks, but it doesn't win firefights.
Most of my kills these past few days have been from sniper rifles (headshots even!), grenades, and melee. Dunno if it's worth investing into looking for a specific gun since TTK is upon us.
Kinda reminds me of the FF7 remake trailer:

There are two sides to every story and I can't imagine Marty's close friends betraying him for the sake of a lawsuit - everyone has the right of the 5th.
Reading the letter is very saddening, nonetheless.

Ahem
Maybe you can sneak in there?
Sadly I'm at work right now!
And yeah, I know, it's the best part of the game and all that, I just got a bit burnt out with dealing with anything to do with online play after years of swearing teenagers on Xbox live taking their toll.
If anyone does want to raid, I'm on PS4, using a level 34 hunter, 161 light, and available tonight from 10pm. PSN name is TotalBiscuit257.
And yes, it's the same as the youtuber. Its a name from a Discworld book, and I'd been using it for almost a decade online before he got famous.

I'll be logging on in a bit and will host it for a bit
I kinda had to chuckle a bit, sorry
What?

Yeah, that's why I'm waiting on all these quests. They'll likely be so much easier with new gear.

Awesome. Thanks dude!
There's a Ghost in the Echo Chamber? That's Venus right?
Gotta get that one next.
I solo'd up to the crota checkpoint for you to get the ghost. Unless you've already got it meanwhile, you can join me for it.

how do you guys feel about faction rep taking half rep to fill up? granted there are some easier bounties daily even if some Crucible bounties force you to have a 2nd player in your fireteam party
Or this...
"OMG the legal fees!!! Marty was in it for the principle!!!" Let's ignore how much his stock is probably worth (vastly more than all the legal fees)!!!
You've been gone for a while and the Crucible is in a weird spot right now with everybody figuring out the range and stability of their new weapons. Just keep at it and you'll get better. Practicing Sniper skill is probably the single best investment you can do though - it's an amazingly powerful weapon class when used well.
We'll be spending the next 5 years going after Crota's relatives.
Father, Mother, Brothers and Sisters, Cousins etc.

So if you hand in a 3k bounty you get full to vanguard/crucible and 1.5k to factions? If that's the case it won't be "that" bad to start with as we'll need the shots at gear but after a while no thanks
This guy was not just his close friend he was acting as his lawyer in certain respects... The only way this was posted was with full permission and endorsement by Marty.
What?
No just because you said you don't like aiming your gun to get kills.
It's...kind of funny you don't want to aim to win XD
I really hope that Oryx's second uncle in-law isn't a bad guy.
I know, but it's just hard to imagine true friends betraying someone like that for a court case. Unless they were bribed or strongarmed of course.
So about 2.0 and its changes to the Ceucible, here's my main takeaway:
The way we play has to change fundamentally in terms of loadout selection. Pre 2.0, most of us had a go-to weapon. If you mained Thorn or TLW or Red Death or whatever, you basically kept that 99% of the time. Your Special slot was probably always a shotgun or a sniper - maybe changing it out depending on the map.
The thing is, good weapons were far too versatile and could always be used everywhere. Now there's maps where you definitely want a Pulse Rifle, others where you might want a Scout, others where you feel a HC or AR would work better. It'll be hard to play at a high level with a single weapon trying to fit all the different maps now that damage drop off is so clearly defined for each weapon class.
This is interesting and will promote more varied play, but it'll also make it far more difficult to master a single weapon. You'll be rocking Messenger one match then switch to MIDA or Salvation State the next.

I did the update last night and logged in and had the same thing happen. My Ghorn from xur was maxed, but I only got to wolfpack rounds before the update. Not complaining lol.

Yes, I know! It's honestly a name Terry Pratchett invented, and this suspicion and occasional harts smelt is why I've started using Stilton Disco instead. If I could change it on PSN I would!
See, this is another reason I avoid playing online with people I don't know!
You must not thirst for gossip.
For some of us that have been playing Bungie games since they started as a studio, it is a little personal. Bungie has always been very close with their community and Marty has always been THE Bungie music guy.

Finally played on The Dungeons. It was okay. Bungie really fucked up the spawns though. Twice spawned on top of someone with a machine gun.

Wait what?
oh nonono i was just joking around, I did not mean to keep you from playing D:
you'll find good groups here to do raids with, no problem there mate!
You have to use a class item, at least for now. DO orbit helm, chest, arms and legs do not work. Has to be the class item.

Thanks for doing this stuff man, crazy
Yea I get this feeling too. You have to be good at one weapon of each primary type.
You finally got your Celestial NightHawk. Hawkian.
