Thanks EJ! I'll try it out. Seems like a lot of people still do tier 2 and tier 3.

Strange numbers. 296 and a 303 should have yielded 301/302 depending on rounding.
Note: if a weapon is past 50% upgraded it infused better. So before dropping another Raid weapon into your Supercell, dump 10 Motes of Light into it. You'll get closer to the original value.
You should gain 80% of the difference between their levels at a minimum. Never seen it do less, the numbers you are giving would piss me off
Thanks for the info. Yeah I was pretty bummed and thought something was off, especially since I used an infuse simulator on a website and said it would return 302.
You must be right on this though, yesterday I got a 310 TLW from an engram and promptly infused it into my 300 Supercell without any XP. That yielded a 307 Supercell. Maybe with XP it would have yielded a 308.
Yeah
Specially with good blues there's no reason not to as they require very few motes
Honestly I could do tier 1s all day. You can carve through them like tissue paper <3
Hey no worries. Unstable and Church joined and we were able to get it done on the 4th or 5th try. It was less than an hour after ya'll left.
If this is accurate, then legendaries must have slightly different rules than exotics. I infused a 310 Bhammer with my 300 TYS and got a 308 TYS.
No? It isn't there. But then I'm missing most if not all emblems given by original LE/CE too.

Really bullshit if the old faction ships are 'retired.' Everyone knew the distribution system sucked, including Bungie (as evidenced by the revamp in 2.0), but let's just make it even more salient by putting them into the ship 'checklist' which is nothing more than a middle finger if you weren't extremely lucky prior to 2.0.
If that's the case, they should be treated as other items that don't appear unless unlocked. I hope the kiosks get some updating at some point and the unobtainable shit is treated properly and the special order emblems are put back in (for those of us who had them disappear).

Totally agree.... They also need to allow you to infuse the Original CE legendary ghost, which is currently bugged.

I'm very cheap when it comes to spending my motes. I'd rather just do bounties.
Edit: Also, when I dismantle a legandary... At "nada" they give me 3 marks. If I get those to 50%-100% they give me 5 marks, right?
I don't have that either.
I'm in, I bet I can get my Warlock raid ready by then
Sweeet!
Is anyone down for doing just Oryx tonight? I have the checkpoint and I need some veterans to help out my group... T_T
We're thinking of running it around 7:45pm central time.
2 more to go!
1.) ShadowKayos
2.) MeowFZ
3.) BGZKinsella
4.) Hawkian
5.)
6.)
I can help!
Hey anyone on tonight want to do another mini crota? I did it with groups over the weekend but didn't present the rune myself. Have antiquated ones on my Titan.
That mini Crota fight is crazy fun
Deku you should solo him with that sword of yours hahaha
Beat a yellow a day on the dreadnought to charge it and then you can use it to trigger a special event. Helped twilight with the end of his.

I can help and I still need an oryx clear on my hunter. I will be on around then. Can bring ToM for fun.
DekuBleep
Are you online now? I can walk you thru most of that.
Once charged the Agonarch rune lets you do a "quest" which is more or less to kill a bunch of elites and stuff to unlock a chest which drops a fragment.
Wormsinger you have to defeat a boss for a fragment, and the Skyburner command beacon gets turned into a "bounty" which is timed and once finished unlocks a door to a chest with a fragment.
Was sitting at 196 marks before doing the dailies and didn't know what to buy since I was really just saving them for the reset. Went ahead and bought some Bones of Eao just to make
Edit: Wait I didnt even pay attention rofl didnt even cost marks. Well shit. Need something else to buy now...
those damn jumping puzzles easier. Toughest part of the raid for sure

You lure out and bop Taken Majors on the Dreadnaught, one for every day of the week. Once you've murdered Taken on each and every day, the rune is ready to go. Wormsinger runes go into machines near the Breach which summon little boss monsters of the hive into the middle of the Breach. Same for the command beacon, just goes in a different machine.

For the agonarch rune, you have to kill yellow-bar named targets on the Dreadnaught each day until it's filled.
In the main spawn area you will sometimes see taken enemies, keep killing them until a yellow bar enemy appears. Once you kill it, you will get 1 charge.
You can swap the rune between characters and get 3 a day, or have someone activate their rune and kill all the enemies that spawn to insta-fill yours.

I have 41-45 fragments.
Got all the patrol, story and strike ones. Pretty sure i got the coo ones. The special key and the damage chest
Still need the cabal key, scent of the worm and agnorach rune. The two leading upto war priest. Which ones am i missing?

I just learned Agonarch runes yesterday!
So, there's like, white pools on the ground in certain places on the Dreadnaught that trigger big fights that end in a named major hive enemy. Killing that enemy will add a charge to the #/7, and it seems like you can only get 1 charge per day doing this. When you have it full, there's a series of waves you can trigger in the Founts (by the Warden's Knights) that ends with a chest with some loot and a Calcified Fragment. But, if someone has a charged Agonarch rune, you can go with them to activate it and the fight itself will add 4 or 5 charges to your rune all at once and charge it, and then you can use it on the chest. So if you have 3/7 you can go with somebody who has a charged one and charge yours for sure.

What's the opinion on the Year 2 Suros Regime? Is Hung Jury superior?

I was wondering what that was for. Good to know. I haven't had a chance to really explore the Dreadnought yet so a lot of these locations are still mysteries to me.
No, but will be tonight! I'll check in w/ you this evening.

I'd love to do tier 3 CoO tonight. I've need to summon mini-Crota as well for the fragment.
That's the extent of what I know. What yellows do I beat to charge it? w/ Wormsinger where do I find said boss? As far as the command beacon, am I given some kind of waypoint on my HUD?

To me it seems like a well-rounded weapon, decent for PvE and PvP. Although I'm sure some will disagree with me

Yes to all 3. Each of those steps give you a calcified fragment. You need 45 of those for the touch of malice.
For the Argo Rune, you need to kill "named" Taken. You can fill it once per day. When filled, you can do the "event". On a side note, you can actully join up with someone that ahs a filled Argo Rune and killed the named Taken that appear during the event. That means you can charge your rune in like 5 minutes instead of a week.
Wormsinger Rune and Skyburners beacon are similar events thta get you a calcified in the end. You use those in a small pedestal-like thing that is hidden in some caves on the Dreadnaught (for the Wormsinger) and at the control panel inside the big ship to the left as you drop on patrol (for the beacon).
I need a T3 for the Eris/300 artifact quest on my Titan, and I'd also love to do some CoO on my Warlock. if the timing works out it would be great to run it with youHey anyone on tonight want to do another mini crota?

Huh, I was starting to think that the penalty was higher when infusing exotics with non exotics, but maybe the penalty is higher for infusing any higher quality gear with any lower quality gear.
I always try to infuse closer light levels, smaller steps like you mention. But it's been incredibly hard to get primary drops higher than the 296 the Supercell was at. I knew I was going to lose some, just never thought it would be that much.
I was thinking the same thing, but Hudson's post above made think something else. Maybe if you infuse the same quality gear (exotics on exotics, legendaries on legendaries) you get a smaller penalty than lower quality on higher quality (rares on legendaries, legendaries on exotics).
But that doesn't explain why my 300 Supercell only got up to 307 when infused with a 310 TLW. Maybe I had to apply some XP to TLW before infusing like Javier mentioned.
Thanks everybody. Sounds like I'm the last one that needs to do this. Hopefully I can jump in w/ someone who has a fully charged one, though I guess doing it over the next four days isn't that big of a deal.

Remember for this quest the rune doesn't have to be your own!
if you hop in to somebody else's mini Crota you'll get credit for your artifact.Agonarch rune you charge by killing Taken champions that spawn once you kill 3 waves of lesser minions. Is the glowing taken smoke balls that usually spawn around the Dread. Walk into them and they trigger a few units spawns and a boss.
Do 1 a day until charged or join someone who already charged theirs to fully charge yours.
Wormsinger rune spawns a hive ship if im not mistaken somewhere close to you.
Command beacon triggers a HUD experience very much like a Bounty would, just timed
Thanks Liquid.

Anyone have the Old Hunger quest or just want to help a fella out? I am at the Undying Mind mission, and it's a real drag solo.
I have a charged one and haven't done it yet! Let's team up.
Yessss! I'm hoping to be around on my Vita tonight. Send me a psn w/ a heads up on when you want to do it. You are the man.
Best PVE subclass in the game.
Can someone confirm regarding the raid,
Is there any reason to keep shooting Oryx after the Orge Blight orbs are detonated? It seems like it may be a waste of ammo if Oryx needs 4 cycles of detonating the Blight's and then a final quick damage phase just to kill him.
Otherwise, after detonating the Blight's everyone should be cleaning up adds, not shooting Oryx. Or does shooting Oryx actually produce significant damage which may offset if a Blight isn't detonated during the rounds?

It's mostly support class, but can be pretty deadly in crucible as well when you find the right skills and weapons to use.
Gunslinger with celestial nighthawk is still king of PvE, and the symbiot is best for PvP.

could never
No doubt.

Been trying to get a better cloak as this raid cloak isn't cutting it. Really want a year 2 Venom of Ikaheka but speaker hasn't sold it yet
They're the most useful consumable in the game.
I don't remember what it's like to have an unleveled weapon
That, and I keep edging factions. Whenever I'm past halfway ranked I'll dump motes. I've spent thousands doing this
In the last 2 weeks my Hunter alone has gained 16 Dead Orbit Ranks.
What's the math on mote-faction rank? How many motes for a Rank basically? I need to go from 0-3 with dead orbit. I want that scout.
