|OT31| And a Third - Draksis' Nightmare

and bungie punished my smugness by giving my invective 8 fucking times.

All the Shards.
I've had something around 6 Obsidian Minds and 6 Stags.

 

[therealminime]

Ok and that's all for me. 38 used and I got 8 exotic engrams. That's not terrible.

Got me some Jade Rabbit.

But I also got 2 Monte Carlos, 2 Invectives, and 2 Crest of Alpha Lupi. Kinda lame that those seem to be weighted so much more.

 

[faer0n]

Tried it 15 times. Got 1 engram...

Titan at 295

Still need to do Nightfall on my Warlock.

 

[vctor182]

Damnit!! I'm at work!! And didn't bought any 3oC because I was happy with my xur engram haul...Hopefully they don't patch this in the next 5 hours...or this day please bungie??

 

[Oscar]

Anyone mind explaining what i have to do when killing Draksis, i just and the mission ended, and im starting from the beginning

Make the last shot be a rocket launcher one that also kills you.

damn nami, howd you get those alts up so fast? store engrams for tranfusion?

 

[Collateral22]

Wandered into some place in the hall of souls and got a taken consumption effect on me and found a really slow opening chest but died by the effect. Anyone know what's in it?

 

[gotstrangepowers]

Do all exotics start at 280?

 

[neoism]

is the raid at 1 est?

 

[deoee]

Wow... bought that 280 ghost yesterday cause everyone was like "ZOMFG NEVER MOAR LIGHT WITH DROPS!" and now i get one from the strike with 283, yay D:

 

[skynidas]

is the raid at 1 est?

55 minutes

 

[Sullichin]

Game crashed during Darkblade strike...
Restarted, started Valus heroic. Got an exotic chest engram from the Sol Progney mid-boss.
Then it crashed again during Valus. :|

 

[140.85]

Is the raid going to be impossible at anything < 290?

 

[Ozone]

Do all exotics start at 280?

Except the ones from the helm engram Xur is selling.

is the raid at 1 est?

Yup!

 

[Robdraggoo]

Do all exotics start at 280?

seems so, xurs are 280 and engrams seem to come stock at 290

 

[constantstatic]

Tried it 15 times. Got 1 engram...

I got two engrams out of 15 coins

Should we be doing this on easy or hard?

 

[EroticSushi]

I just encrypted like 5 chest of Alpha Lupi. Why.

We Astronaut and Taken now. Got Jade Rabbit as well.

It's actually MUCH easier to level alts than it seemed. Give them weapons and ghosts the rest takes care of itself very quickly.

 

[1.21Gigawatts]

My first 20 three of coins translated to 3 exotics.

 

[TP-DK]

Do all exotics start at 280?

exotics from engram is 290.

 

[Namikaze1]

Do all exotics start at 280?

All exotics bought from Xur or through the exotic kiosks are 280. Exotics from engrams, quest rewards, and random drops are 290.

 

[maomaoIYP]

How do you do it? Just did it and i killed him but i got nothing. And i killed myself but mission ended

When he's close to death, shoot a rocket in front of him at your feet. You will die with him and repsawn outside his door.
Eat another coin when you respawn, then repeat.

 

[pocketaces]

[Inapplicable]

I love you Rahool.

Is it just me or are Skyburners Annex perks kind of meh?

 

[Robdraggoo]

whos streaming the raid today?

and whats the over-under on completion time any bets?

 

[Blue Ninja]

Thanks Ives!

 

[Tecnniqe]

Alright lets do this!
Farming Draksis for VacationGAF until Raid time!

Thanks Ives!

Remove it quick!

I had trouble as it would register complete even though I died so I found it easier to kill and orbit.

 

[X-Frame]

Anybody get the new Titan chest with the Evade? Must be part of a quest.

 

[traveler]

Got to 280 thanks to mah Buddies Draxis, Xur and Oryx's for his court.

Started out at 239 this morning.

Sweet!

Using motes and grabbing mats to have everything leveled up for the raid.

Build isn't perfect this time, but I'll have Saint-14, max intellect, and at least two different weapon setups depending on whether I can go short range with Fakebringer + Thunderlord or need long range on the primary with Boolean and either a sword or blue rocket launcher. Debating leveling the taikonaut in case it somehow comes in handy and can turn my blue hah rocket launcher into a truth lol

Just filaments and legendary engram drop. Use a Titan win armor of light

 

[Namikaze1]

Anyone interested in doing a Nightfall on PS4? Just need to do one. PSN is namikaze1.

 

[Robdraggoo]

I love you Rahool.

hes at it again........

 

[Jinjo]

WHY ARE THESE EXOTICS NOT HAPPENING FOR ME?! 2 in 20 coins or something.

 

[1.21Gigawatts]

Is it smart to invest all my strange coins in three of coins?

 

[zewone]

Brought the Vita to work, trying to see if I can get remote play to work.

Exotic farming is calling my name.

 

[Twilight Gap]

lol

Get ready for that patch.

Good on them for catching onto it early. I'm usually on the looting side of these exploits (i'd probably be for this one too if i had enough coins), but this one in particular rubs me the wrong way - moreso than any of the previous exploits have.

If this was an exploit for Legendary Marks, I'd back it 100%, hoping that it would communicate to Bungie how poor that system is. Exotics however are fine and the loot system is good now. I thought this coin thing was going to be a fun mechanic to use while people played.

Guess not.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Bungie knows about the Draksis farming, Urk tweeted about it.

Edit: beaten.

 

[scarletham]

What are the chances the farm is still doable when I get home from work around 19:30 EST?

 

[Jinjo]

Draksis officially dropped more commons for me than exotics.

 

[zewone]

Did he say it's going to be addressed?

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

They aren't happening for me right now either. I've used I think 9 in a row and nothing.

 

[constantstatic]

Is it just me or are Skyburners Annex perks kind of meh?

Yup I think so and I got 3 of them today.
So when farming these exotics engrams I'm assuming I do this on easy right?

I got 2 out of 15 coins so im wondering if I did something wrong.

 

[NeoRausch]

Somebody please educate me on the Draksis exploid!

 

[Jafku]

Looking for a raid group. Im light level 284. Add me psn Jafku

It still will be and is, when used as intended. I doubt they'll remove the item entirely, just give it a cooldown.
