Bladedancers weren't op because of bladedance. They were op because they had great additional perks like Quickdraw, blink, and Arc bolt.

Lol, great to see Giantbomb got stuck at the exact same problem in the raid as our group did. Everyone went across the ship to invisible door, to get the chest and no one stayed back to open the doors and once you hit the other side, you can't spawn back. Two people had to go to orbit and rejoin all the way back to the start of the jumping puzzle.

Personally, I'd love for them to fix the Netcode first and foremost. I'm curious to see how Trials 2.0 plays out.

Hey I have the oryx checkpoint on my hunter on xb1, I can run it at that time. Anyone else?
Warlock uses Fireborn and you shoot him to face, again, and warlock is dead again. Applies pretty much to all warlock supers, just shoot at him like he wouldn't have super active and he dies in normal TTK.
You can counter gunslinger by just shooting him to head or in general few times, GG bullets don't home in.
Bladedancer is same bullshit as it has always been in PvP, but you can at least try to counter it with guns.
Sunbreaker Titan, do you have tactical nuclear warhead at hand so you can OHK him from far away? No? Well RUN and pray he doesn't catch up.
Edit:
I think something is off when I can land direct RL hit to Bladedancer only to see it not caring at all, barely losing shields and then spamming attack until everything in sight is dead. Do that to any other subclass [excluding sunbreaker] and they go down, not even requiring direct hit.

Anybody need or want to help with the shield brothers strike for the chaparone shotgun?

Netcode is fine, it's just the matchmaking sometimes giving you matches with people with a crappy ping / far away from you.
This and GAF IB trains with people from all other the world in them...

Radiance Locks dont regen health after every kill. They just lob 5 or 6 nades around, not homing rockets with combustion.
well, the engram pool isn't that big. But yeah that blows lol.
I think the only special weapons that can decrypt from engrams right now are
Invective
4th Horseman
Telesto

Yes and No. I've been OHK with a sniper plenty of times while using my super. This is the argument at its core. Every super except the SB can be stopped by a skilled player.
I can go either way honestly. As of right now, my solution is to run away or if I'm playing a a fireteam then we focus fire.

If only. I'm highly skeptical that we'll ever see that happen. At least not till Destiny 2.
I couldn't finish Oryx off last night with CybrWizrd and co. I know I sucked cuz I was nervous. Anyways, hopefully there's fireteam later on today to beat Oryx only before the reset. I should have a checkpoint in case some of you dont.

If y'all desperately need a 6th.
Yea, I'm not sure where this sudden whining about their super is coming from. They were always pretty squishy and vulnerable to getting gun downed by the last word, getting sniped, getting shotgunned, getting counter supered, etc. It had a lot more potential than other supers for multi kills since it was more mobile, but any competent player could shoot you down or at least trade with you.
Blink shotguns and arc bolt + thorn was really what everyone hated.

Yea if and when it does happen, I think a lot more people will be attracted to Destiny PvP. That and custom games. My heart!

I believe ADS was nerfed pretty significantly. But yea, I gave up on TLW after the first day I tried TTK pvp with it.

People saying sunsinger warlocks are broken. Yep, enough internet for me today.
Does anyone know offhand if wins in Mayhem Clash count as Clash wins for that Grimoire?
On a related note I'm super shocked they didn't add a lot more Grimoire with TTK. I figured we would get most existing Grimoires for kills etc all doubled but nope. Not even new Grimoire for Sword Kills, Rift wins etc. Really odd to me.

Radiance locks just lob grenades that home in on multiple targets on detonation with no chance at counterplay to avoid the hit, and since they lob so many grenades ita guaranteed kills. Sunbreakers you can dodge by hiding behind a wall or blink through the hammer.
War...war has changed.

Are you on PS4? I am looking for a group to help with Oryx too. (Around 2-3 hours from now). I'm unable to use my mic but that won't be a problem with 5 others. iRAWR can help too.
I would argue then that any competent bladedancer player always spams attack, even when looking for next victim, because it seems to really fuck up the game. I can put down bladedancer in few shots if he isn't spamming his attack, but moment he starts to spam attack my guns turn into nerf gun dealing 0 damage to bladedancer.
I want to finish that quest... I need to :|

Anyway yeah you're welcome to join in my opinion. Not sure how much damage falloff being a 280 is in the raid, may actually test that using my solo CP as I'm curious.
This is the extent of it. They can't survive Golden Guns normally, either. It's a bug. I've killed Sunbreaker Titans with a Golden Gun before. I think it's when they're wearing the chest armor that gives solar subclasses extra armor.

And you get a medal for it now!
meh dont wanna know how many times I have written sodium and chloride over the last few days
But what about
Titanium and Thorium?
It's been interesting playing Gunslinger in crucible as I feel like an essential part of my team as the only guy who can save us from rampaging Sunbreakers.
Anyways my Hunter is just barely raid ready at 290 even with her hilariously bad 200 artifact and 260 helmet. Nightstalker is barely leveled, but hey whatever.
The only hunter exotic I have are 310 sealed ahamkara gloves - the ones that give two melees. I was thinking about uses for two smoke grenades - is there any reason you can't pick the extended-length smoke vanish and use that to make the dps phase on Golgoroth really easy? I just don't know much about stealth mechanics in the game as I never played Hunters before. But it'd be nice to have for example the Taken adds just completely ignore everyone for the duration of two double smoke bombs.

That method makes it sooo much easier. I only wish I figured it out sooner.And damn, now I really want one of those shirts.
Nope, you are incorrect.
If you got killed by a sniper then you probably didn't pay attention to your health going down.
I use a high impact sniper like Shadow of Veils which is enough to take down even Radiance lock (unless they have radiant skin), but Sunbreakers can take the shot and survive. Meanwhile I can kill a Bladedancer with TLW and blink strike.

I think 1 person did?
But yea, someone also thinks opening the VoG is way more fun than the opening sequence in KF so anything is possible on teh interwebz. It's all a matter of opinion

People are trying to say it's Titan's turn in the spotlight after Hunter dominance, but it isn't the same. Hunters were definitely OP nut they were never broken. Sunbreakers are objectively broken.
Haha custom games. Who would want that? Custom games in 2015 pls.
Yes Im on PS4. IDK about 2-3hr since Im getting ready to go to work right now.

I LOVE the jade rabbit!
It is great for PvE. Land 4-5 body shots, then one precision shot with extra damage.... BOOM! Your magazine is refunded.Feels kind of like the old black hammer, you can fire it for days without reloading. Really good for boss fights. I've also had some success with it on long range PvP maps.
Overall, great weapon!
Oh yeah.... and TLW stinks now
Hahaha!
Sunsingers with Ram head was pretty OP before helm armor bonus got nerfed.
Equip when super then unequip
I only actually got about 1 or 2 kills total with my TLW when doing that part of the quest. All super/sword kills.
Technically it was just one guy I play with, the other member was a popular member of the video games media in the midst of a seemingly infinite struggle to get his Spindle. So we carried him.
We messed around with one strategy going in, failed it made a couple changes and then destroyed the activity with 4 minutes to spare on our second go.
Comp was
- Defender
- Sunbreaker
- Stormcaller
