i'm still trying to figure out who one shot my ogre. my fusion rifle was charging when the ogre died halfway spawned out of the floor.
yea, I got a 299 as a NF drop and it's alright. pretty good for PVP.
Bladedancer also has way more mobility than hammer even with titan skating. They just need to cut the duration on hammer of Sol and stormtrance, getting rid of armor on them will make them useless.
THIS IS WHY PUMAS ARE MY FAVORITE ANIMAL
not really
But seriously cross sniping for the win. I could never get a great angle on my ogre (from the low platform),what with him turning his head and being overly ridiculous. If we can initiate
OPERATION: CROSS SNIPE OGRE
in every TUESDAY night Animal Farm/Food Group raid I would be very happy
I would be happier if I could get a Telesto

I love the JR, but I don't have Zhalo yet.
I do rather well with it in PvP, and for PvE I think the FOAF perk is pretty cool. I just killed Taniks without reloading at all. Easy enough to get it to proc on certain bosses.

it's in a much better place than it has been all year.
in a perfect world I wish they would tweak handcannons, pulse rifles, shotgun range, and the AA on some sniper rifles. Otherwise I have no complaints.

striker titans don't even have an effect in higher level PVE play --at least nova bombs can be used at a distance
sunbreakers actually aren't that beefy--the thing that makes them near indestructable is cauterzie, which is restrengthening their armor each time they get a kill with the hammer
if they want to cut down how long the super lasts by 25%, I'd be fine with that pvp wise, but much more...
Shotguns wildly and outrageously throw off this statement which I'd generally agree with otherwise.

I think I called him Crota a bunch the other night during our run. Force of habit for me.

ATTENTION
I have family coming over this weekend and need to get 2 raid runs in before then.
one raid this afternoon, another raid tomorrow afternoon.
Who wants to run a raid at about 4 pm eastern this afternoon?

What's the easiest way for Hadium Flakes just running chest routes? Need 45 more for Eris.
We've got pumas, we've got hawks, we've got wafers, we've got wallachs (what's a wallach???). What more can you ask for?

I'm getting quite annoyed with the groups I somehow keep getting invited to -_-. Seems the new trend is to play your music through the mic to annoy people x____x.
Hand cannons and fusions also need a buff.
Might as well just remove the subclass entirely at that point.
GG has 3 shots and no armor? How would that make it useless?

pulse rifles are in a good place right? whats wrong with them
most hand cannons are fine--both Hawkmoon is the most dominant mid range gun in the game and TLW is extremely dominant within close range.
auto rifles are pretty good all around--you're not going to outduel the other guns at their best ranges, but I love using my suros
sniper aa?

Not going to happen, nor should it.
Aw come on, this is laughable. I've mained a bladedancer since launch. If I could throw my arc blades and they exploded on imapct for multi-kills they'd be roughly equivalent... except Sunbreakers would still have more armor.
The Sunbreaker damage resistance just shouldn't be there in PvP. Force it to be used intelligently to compensate for the risk associated with so much offensive capability, as in Bladedancer's need to get up close.
this has been going on since the days of modern warfare. little kiddies thinking i enjoy whatever justin bieber song they are addicted to for the week.

No, they really are quite beefy. They have something like 66% damage reduction. Without them getting a kill you still need to kill the Titan 3 times over to down them.
do that with Sunsingers and their awful long range melees first. then we can talk. Titans finally get a subclass that can destroy PVP!
only 3 per super? lol no. Bladedancer and Stormcaller could generate more kills off super.
Damage resistance reduction, that I could see, but not by much.
It's like people can't handle that Titans now have a viable PvP subclass that can compete with God mode warlocks and hunters. Pre TTk the PvP class numbers were super skewed, and for a reason.
Ranking up with Eris is one of the best things you can do for Hadium Flakes. I got like 14 per rank up package. If you gave any of those pink-border Hive bounties from the Dreadnaught they usually give a load of rep and trigger another. CoO can also grind rep with her pretty quick.
Otherwise all you can do is chest farm.
That was a lot of fun (and somewhat stressful)! I had only tried twice before and didn't really come close to getting the boss or adds down. We actually did pretty good on our first two attempts last night despite not clearing it. Actually, I think we made our best time getting to the boss room on our first run.
Now I just have to man up and infuse the damn thing into my 1000 yard stare.
Why?
Just compare it to the other classes. It is op, it can not stay that way.
The hammers need to have a way smaller hitbox or get rid of the autoaim.
Or, more often lately, get void arrow'ed by a Nightstalker and get pulled right out of the super and killed.
Hammer may be OP but at this point I look at it as Bungie's way of apologizing for a year of having only Fist of Panic or a Bubble that any Nova Bomb or Golden Gun could out-do. I'd rather not go back to the being the step-child of Destiny PVP if I can help it.
you're sort of making it out to be a Gunslinger. The problem with that is that Gunslinger will out-gun a Sunbreaker because of speed. I think 5 hammers and SOME dmg resistance is fair so that no one kills you in the time it takes you to throw a hammer.

Party Crasher, Chaos Theory D, Chaperone, Felwinter...we've all had those "good lord" deaths, but are they really that much stronger than a good sniper?
I barely equip my shotguns anymore (heck I use an icebreaker) because a sniper can do so much work

No problem! We were all Hunters and just tethered everything lol. Clearing the 2nd room quickly is the key.
I think the Jade looks cool and I like the way it sounds. Dumb reason to want it I know.
I didn't actually look the first attempt to see how quickly we got through the first part. I like how it came down to us killing the rest of the thrall via melees to end it.
I got two of the 300 light ones and used them to infuse my Stillpiercer and my 1K Yard Stare; they're both now at 299. I'm still not exactly clear on what I need to do now before they nerf it.
may be more like 10 Eastern before we're set to go, but we'll see you then.
Colonel Epyon here needs the loot from the friday night run, but we may still need you if stabie doesn't show up.
While I agree (modest buffs, though), this need is primarily exaggerated by the ability of shotguns to OHK in their engagement space.
Destiny has like totally redefined what I think of as "shotgun range"
Corn, a guy with strange powers, a rap doctor, I don't know. I'm drawing blanks.
What IS a Wallach. Good question.

I remember those days, I was just hoping if I group up for a raid or strike that they wouldn't do such things x__x. I need another group for these tasks lol

I haven't seen any evidence that the damage he takes is variable based on how much you shoot him. Every time I've run it he hits the same health points after each cycle. It's my biggest issue with encounter, it doesn't seem possible to ever reduce the clear time.

They should have high damage resistance and have to charge up the hammers before they throw them. The longer they charge it, the further it goes but the more super energy it consumes. So if you want to throw it across the map, you will probably only get 3 shots, but can have 6 in CQB.
Wow I didn't knew that throwing hammers didn't drain super energy. It should be like Bladedancer or GG were you get 3 hammer throws
Yeah I think your expectations are set a biiiit too high and for the bolded, I don 't even really want to know. The discovery aspect of the game is cool right now IMO.
As for your issue of already being 307 and wanting to know what comes next, well I think you know the answer to that.
I do think we'll get info on Trials and IB, which I'm excited about. Maybe hard mode.
I don't really expect any weapon balancing in the near future, and honestly I think that's fine.
I'd like Spindle clarity too. I mean they said all spindles are going back to 290, but really, what's the harm in leaving them at 310 now and just adjusting it moving forward? People that were able to do it are likely already getting raid drops above 300 and are the ones most likely to 'game' the system using infusion anyways.
Okay maybe you should compare it to other classes instead.
Bladedancers can zip across the map and get kills with Arc Blade just as well.
Stormcallers. Don't even get me started on Stormcallers. They're the janitors and we're the trash. They'll clean up.
PvP would be better off with shotguns removed. Anyone who disagrees needs to be shotgunned in the leg.
I will always think that Warlock's force lightning is more OP than the fire hammers of death. 95% of my hammer of death kills are against people standing still trying to shoot me. My hammers aren't that fast... run away.

It should be 50% like everything else. It should still be good but then you'd have to pick your battles like all the other roaming supers. It's pretty derpy right now

Actually other than Halo and some arena shooters, shotgun range in destiny for ohk is pretty much the norm for most shooters and real life (further IRL actually)
that doesn't mean anything in regards to their purpose for the games balance of course, but just stating the fact
