I love the Zhalo but I keep going back to the

S U R O S R E G I M E

I used the regime the entire raid. It's baaaaack

 

[kidko]

Focus Fire. It's like shooting tennis balls of doom. I also don't reload much to easier proc Suros Legacy

Spinning up is fun in CoO when perfect aim is less important and ammo is plentiful. For more range, shooting Vex in their glow holes, etc, I switch to Focus Fire.

 

[TheAquaticApe]

Same. It was great. I like spinning up personally.

 

[phen0m24]

Everyone that's saying Suros 2 wrecks everything, are you using spinning up or focus fire?

Probably the minority but spinning up is cool

When the gun starts shooting as fast as Thunderlord but yet is really stable - that's just fun

Yellow bar wizard? What yellow bar wizard?

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Pick 1, get quest, pick all

Welp me and my buddy fucked up.

We thought there was no way Bugie wouldn't account for finding more than one in one patrol session.

We were patrolling for hours checking out all the new stuff.

 

[Nuszka]

Worst part of the touch of malice quest - 50 bloody headium flakes. I just can't.

 

[Phear]

So, whos up for anything? Daily Story, Nightfall, CoO, Raid. Anything really, just dont want to play alone.

 

[VE3TRO]

Easiest exotic ever.

 

[rNilla]

Like Thunderlord before it, but even moreso, it seems like you run out of ammo just as Spinning Up is about to get good.

 

[nowai]

Soooo did anyone here get the Chaperone? Was just talking with a friend whose friend had gotten it and was apparently saying it's the new Thorn, it completely wrecks in PvP and guy was getting 25+ kills a game with it?

Yep, I got it and promptly maxed it out with motes.

It's pretty wonderful. Looks great and makes a little whip crack when you reload.


It also spins like Arnold in T2, so you know...best.

 

[GutZ31]

Haha, yeah it's dumb. Understandably, it's tough as hell finding people wanting to do it, with TKK now out.

But yes, any help is welcome GAF!

What's your gamer tag or PSN ID for others to add you.

 

[Mindlog]

I made several mistakes in several encounters that require 'perfect execution.' The raid is actually very forgiving. Not lying when I say I enjoyed it all, but I can completely sympathize with those that suffered eye fatigue.

That moment when you

Spoiler

are the Oryx relic runner for 4 hours straight and your hands hurt, your arms hurt, your eyes hurt from the constant black and white bullshit and you are falling half asleep cause it's 4am and every single jump you take has to be perfect over and over again and you need to get the relic to the knight without dying to a wrong double jump or getting stuck on adds and then you pull out your golden gun and you can't miss that shot or else DPS might not be enough.

Jesus Christ man.


Oh btw whatever happened to the group I helped with the first boss last night? Did you guys get past second boss? Did my tip help?

(The following spoilers contain mechanics of the final raid encounter. Avoid them if you don't want to know about the raid.)
I was the

Spoiler

This is Team Sexy's first? Oryx kill from my perspective. I was the one in the middle just helping in general and I made several mistakes. Didn't turn fast enough to help stun an Ogre. Waited for spawns on one side when I should have been killing them on the other. Bouncing off a rock that brought my mortar dangerously close to my teammates. Throwing my grenade into a Titan Bubble was on purpose in case adds walked in.... Most of these mistakes, others and my aim can be chalked up to being very tired at the time.

[Anastasis]

Does anyone have both Red Death Y2 and Suros Y2? Is Suros Y2 heads above Red Death in PvE right now?

 

[DrROBschiz]

Like Thunderlord before it, but even moreso, it seems like you run out of ammo just as Spinning Up is about to get good.

I feel like Bungie is so scared to make a potentially overpowered weapon to the point that it makes cool guns less fun to use

 

[TearsOfBlood]

Are you kidding me? How am I supposed to know not to pick up the fragments before the quest.

Crap, I found like 8 before I did that quest for Eris.

A bunch of people from my clan, including me, made the same mistake.

 

[noomi]

Just got a e-mail from Bungie about a welcome emblem?

wat wat

 

[AmateurHour212]

Constructive criticism is require to improve things since bungie "do" read the feedbacks from GAF. Just saying my personal opinion from what I experience so far which is not bitching and I did finish it as well. Of course there is a possibility it will change but as of now. Don't see anything wrong with that.

Most of what I've read here is not "constructive" criticism, but simply criticism.

The "constructive" part of that phrase means that you provide meaningful solutions or suggestions. Not just "this is bad."

 

[Juraash]

Easiest exotic ever.

It's also pretty great considering the relatively small investment in time to get it. I've been enjoying it a lot while I wait for either a rep item or new guns from the gunsmith.

On that note, did his test weapons change today like they did last week? Or was that a symptom of the expansion dropping on Tuesday?

 

[EL CUCO]

Today we can pledge to a different faction, right?

 

[btkadams]

Easiest exotic ever.

How do you get it?

 

[purg3]

AR's are 100% back in PVE. Having alot of fun swapping between the Zhalo, and The Dealbreaker with focused fire that hits like a mack truck. Looking forward to getting the Titan specific exotic AR from the Gunsmith (I forgot the name).

AR fast reload speed gloves are finally great to have!

I love it, Fabian Strategy is great. Good mag size, crowd control. life support. Front lines is okay, not sure if I really know a difference. But that combined with Immobius is awesome.

 

[Kalamari]

I think it's that Engrams that appear decoded in the game world are not sent to postmaster.

E.g. if you try to collect a special weapon engram, but your inventory is full for that slot, if it says "[special weapon name]" on the right, it will not be at postmaster. If it says that it's an ENGRAM, it will be at postmaster.

Can someone confirm?

I have had named weapons arrive in my postmaster.

 

[btkadams]

You can do that anytime after 7 days.

Yeah. We had people die during our kill. I think two actually. You can definitely recover on multiple encounters. People just don't have the strats down yet. They have them down juuuuust enough to get by if they are flawless.

Yeah. Me too. An emblem called From here, the stars. Not sure why we got it.

 

[Orthogonal]

Is Rocketyard champion bugged? I sit here forever and nothing happens. No Taken invasion... cant finish his quest.

 

[VE3TRO]

Also got the same email. Emblem is this.

I wasn't even aware the quests ended with this lol. I was only doing them to pass time and get some XP. Nice little surprise since Scouts are my fav.

Test weapons change tomorrow. (16 hours from now)

 

[irrotational]

We collected about 9 fragments before Eris asked us to find 5 more....assume we are screwed?

 

[LTWood12]

So I'm going to get the 1000 Yard Stare today. I have a 291 Blue Sniper Rifle, and if I infuse that to it, it'll bring it from 280 to 289. My question is this, should I use the 291 rare Sniper for my first raid, or go ahead and infuse, sacrificing 2 attack to do so.

 

[Tecnniqe]

Also got the same email. Emblem is this.

Im not welcome then huh Bungie? D:

 

[Phear]

For the TLW Quest... Is TLW Y1 ok or does it have to be Y2?

 

[Homeboyd]

A bunch of people from my clan, including me, made the same mistake.

Can you confirm completing the ToM questline and this being a bug for you? aka you've found 45 fragments but the questline only counting fragments found after starting the eris quest? screenshot or something?

 

[JetBlackPanda]

what does that welcome emblem look like?

 

[Namikaze1]

Strange. I collected 5 before Eris's quest.

Still manage to get 45.

 

[Sesuadra]

item Level 279 wuhuuu.

tomorrow I can't play ;_;..

question, in the solar system map in the lower left corner are five symbols. One I can't use which is the one far to the left. what does that do?

 

[SlenderBeans]

For the TLW Quest... Is TLW Y1 ok or does it have to be Y2?

Y1 works, that's what I used.

 

[phen0m24]

Is Rocketyard champion bugged? I sit here forever and nothing happens. No Taken invasion... cant finish his quest.

Do you need to do Rocket Yard specifically? I did the Divide 3X and that counted for the 3/3

I think Iron Banner will appear there when it comes back.

 

[Robdraggoo]

doeasnt it tell you how many youve collected on the dreadnaught map? like the golden chests. its on the bottom right I think. I dont think it matters as long as youve collected them

 

[noomi]

We collected about 9 fragments before Eris asked us to find 5 more....assume we are screwed?

Nope, there are 50 in total. Eventually you want all of them anyway.

 

[Phear]

Y1 works, that's what I used.

Sweet. Gonna play some Crucible then.

 

[Navy Bean]

Do we know what level the Armsday guns will be?

 

[X-Frame]

Jesus Christ

Everyone buy the Hung Jury scout from Dead Orbit.

It's a fucking laser. Extended mag, triple tap, firefly.

:O

Yes! I have another Omolon scout rifle that dropped with basically the same perks, it is my current favorite weapon.

 

[Juraash]

Also got the same email. Emblem is this.

Scouts are my favorite too and they got a ton of love this time around. As a Warlock on PlayStation I have access to 4 different exotic scouts. They really made up for the fact we only had 1 all last year.

 

[Orthogonal]

Do you need to do Rocket Yard specifically? I did the Divide 3X and that counted for the 3/3

I need to kill Stirok, wherever he is. Already got 2 in Divide and Skywaych.

 

[Afrocious]

That's a good point. I dunno. I just feel Spinning Up throws away ammo when I could be saving more deadly shots.

Spoiler

Besides I'm a Stormcaller Warlock: I just spam Stormtrance and run around with a sword for Tier 1 and 2 lol

Probably the minority but spinning up is cool

When the gun starts shooting as fast as Thunderlord but yet is really stable - that's just fun

Yellow bar wizard? What yellow bar wizard?

I might give Spinning Up a try in the raid today. I'm quite a conservative player, so I'll see how much of a death machine this thing is.

I feel like Bungie is so scared to make a potentially overpowered weapon to the point that it makes cool guns less fun to use

Agreed. This makes me wonder how the Touch of Malice stands with other weapons.

 

[blackflag]

I'm scared. Dunno if I found more than 1 before the Eros quest. How would I know? I have like 12 now.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Do we know what level the Armsday guns will be?

i can't wait to find this out omg
