Well, they're not wrong. The loot is not 'smart' at all.

Yup. That extra range makes aaaaaallll the difference.rekt
Talk about an overreaction.
It also has the benefit of clearing adds behind you since it's aoe damage while you just stun lock bosses to death.

They all are piss easy with the spin to win sword.

We should just ban "smart loot" from this OT. It's clearly a shitty PR term.

Eh, I'll take the ridiculous LitC and Holding Aces perk damage over the range.
So when I post to ask for an experienced group that doesn't mind a noob does that make me evil too?
I haven't had a lot of free time for the last two weeks and when I do get to try the raid this weekend it'll probably be my only shot for the next two, too.
Sometimes the hours suck when you're working for yourself. No one to delegate to. :0

Oh, yeah, I used it on the Mauler and his attack didn't hurt much.
Move along Solar, there's a new king in town.
I think Eyasluna has better base stats than the Hawkmoon these days. RIP, old friend.
Anyways, TrueVanguard put out a little review breaking down the Jade Rabbit. He's always been one of my favorite Destiny youtubers because he's just so informative and downright educational about the ins and outs of the game (I highly encourage anyone who's ever dipped into PvP to check out his "Sniper School" videos. I wouldn't be caught dead with one prior to watching and now I'm bullying sniper lanes on Pantheon like its a job I don't much care for.)

He makes some REALLY good points regarding its performance in PvP. I was always a bit on the fence about it, and now I know why.

Anyone want to join us for a NF?
According to Luke Smith they never even coined the term. I think it was the community.
But, yes, I agree. Ban it.

Yay, enjoy and take that into the raid. Ir's pretty damn good for the final 2 encounters.
The range and higher AA make Ace a looooot more consistent IMO.
I just saw this, are you still going and have a spot? I need to do that as well.
Finished that last week
It's a great Raid gun for the Daughters and Oryx encounters. Enjoy
Hawkmoon still has no aim assist and its recoil is ridic
I'll always cherish it though. It was most used exotic in PvP and PvE in year 1. Saw it in my year 1 highlights vid
Yeah. Ace may have low stability but it has an excellent recoil stat of 96 IIRC. I really prefer it on all maps with medium or longer sightlines. Still clinging to TLW on shotgun maps.Hawkmoon still has no aim assist and its recoil is ridic

No. Just the Taken War quests (not Petra's though). It ends with the Road to King's Fall quest iirc

Looking for two more for a fresh raid. Anyone interested?

Am I wrong in thinking there is no more material exchange? Or am I missing something?
No, just Earth.
But you do have to kill 6 lieutenants on Mars, can do that with one area though since 3 spawn before champion and then more spawn when champion is active.

Vanguard Quartermaster in Hangar. 10 marks for 20 materials.
In case you missed my post about 7 hours ago, I managed to confirm that a high impact sniper hits sunbreakers in the head for 188. That puts their damage resist at about 54%. That means besides a shotgun + melee there's no sure fire way to kill them, and if it's a one-on-one situation......Trials date but no discussion of Sunbreaker nerf? Shit.
Same NPCs as always. Roni-552 and The Speaker for the various materials in the game.
Bladedancers also require a shotgun + melee combo to be killed.
edit: double post, thread too slow.

For a gun with two perks that are really aimed at PvE, its crazy how effective the weapon is overall. I think its easily the best Year 2 handcannon in the game (Year 1 Thorn is the best handcannon in the game right now imo).
All of the class specific exotics are pretty awesome tho
(ace gels with each subclass so fucking good too. gunslingers trance turns it into a laser, quickdraw means you can run and gun and always be the first one to hit the hardest, shadowshot+splosions are bananas... so gud)
