Dear Bungie,

We have had 3 loot rolls from the Raid so far and no one got anything useful. No armour or food weapons.

Just materials and other useless crap.

7 hours played with garbage to show for it.

I thought you guys were making raid loot better?

Sincerely,
Annoyed as Fuck

I was afraid of this, I remember VoG having the same issue day one. I wasn't around for CE, not sure if it had that problem or not. Bummer to hear though.

Interesting, haven't take a look at the database dump yet.
I have no problem spoiling myself watching streams, but somehow I find data mining boring. :D
Yeah I'm just talking with friends who've made it through some CPs and all their weapons have it. No datamining here.

And that is why I am farming the hell out of exotics.

One, I have to put these coins to use. No use in keeping so many of them. Two, if I raid for hours and get nothing I will be salty too.

Don't want to read the thread due to some spoilers, but have to say: Telesto has become one of my favorite weapons in Destiny and the raid is soooo good. They put in so much work.

Much love to Bungie.

Pretty impressive to watch. Loved the end where
Oryx is just floating in space. Very cool. Tempted to get this now

Do it man. We can raid next week! :p Only caught glimpses here and there from the raid but it looks like their best effort yet.

Repost of how to easily farm Draksis for people just starting on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTXe2HTZu8I



You can also just run up to him and yolo rocket him, but I find this method to have been the most effective and consistent for me. Sometimes he would not go after you and teleport to the middle, then going all the way to the right of the room: just run up to him there and do your usual thing.
Protip: wait for him to get close, and when he starts his stomp animation hug him and shoot the rocket.
If somehow you kill him but survive, IMMEDIATLY go back to orbit, you have just enough time to do so before the timer kicks in, which would erase your checkpoint.
Happy farming time, fellow guardians! :3
guess i messed up by picking them up everytime...

From what I've seen by leaving them on the ground versus fucking up by picking them up by mistakes / killing Draksis without killing me, forcing me to orbit, this doesn't change much really...
I just liked having them stack up on the ground like that. :3

So raid so far is like Skolas and Hard Crota all over again in terms of length for first timers.

I just got a purple from Drak so I guess he drops all colors.

Is there anywhere I can get a good ghost shell or artifact? Everything I have is 287+, but those two are stuck at 275. I could buy a 280 shell, but I'm not sure if it's worth it.

Been here for an hour. No clue what to do.
We're taking a break and finishing it off tomorrow. Hopefully. Well, Math and I are done. I'm starving and a family emergency came up so I had to bail. Doesn't help that my mic died while my ps4 was telling me my ds4 is almost dead.

They drop but it's super rare. It's better to buy the 280 and hope you get a blue drop that is higher to infuse with because that's what happened with me.

I probably won't ever have the time to prepare and do a blind launch day raid again, but the 5 hours I played with you gaffers were awesome.
