Remember how it felt when they opened up the moon for a few hours?
It felt so awesome, like you were getting away with something. Even though it was intended.
We need that magic, TG. Maybe they open a beta testing window within the game for some of us die hard weirdos. New planet. New guns. New races?
"Test our new planet. Test the gravity level. Test the pvp map. See if these enemies are challenging or are they too challenging? What do you like about the colors? What would be a fun mechanic, apart from the ones we let you mess with?"
So basically it would be fun to do a live focus/testing group and not "Hey we made a bunch of changes that break everything! Hope you like them!"

Of course I remember - i stayed on it for 24 hours, lol.
That's kinda what i'm saying. The game now is missing some of that magic.
Yep I'll join. Send me an invite. Ty_84
Thanks Rob, Ditters, Ichabod, Grief, and T-44 for the fun raid last night. Fun group, and T-44 has evolved to Sherpa status. Flawless platforming and great at calling out instructions. Now if I could ever get him to post here...
Yo Dave! Good to be back.

Shrug. He was level 40 with 290. The rest of his gear was bringing his average up considerably. "Power matters" is a bit of a difficult consideration to judge objectively from the perspective of a playerbase that will rarely dip below 290 even without using their "optimal Light" gear in a mode with a minimum recommended light of 230. I encountered one player in the 240 range and one in the 250 range since the event started and they both got absolutely massacred with impunity. At the same time, small discrepancies in the power curve between high-but-not-equal-Light competitors have resulted in bizarre scenarios for me such as sticking someone with a flux grenade and it leaving them with a sliver of health, or things that I absolutely KNOW would have one-shot a Stormtrance Warlock in regular Crucible failing to do so. A few points of HP remaining at the end of an equation is the literal difference between life and death in a PvP mode where everyone dies at 0.
So I'm not sure how much more I actually want power to matter. It's kind of a dangerous thing to request in my opinion.
I was just stating that if people have a single beloved Y1 gun in general or The Messenger in particular that they can equip while remaining at or above 290 light, it's potentially worth trying. That's all.

Not just us, but for everyone. What if the gravity generators on the Dreadnaught glitched out one day and everything was 25% gravity for the day. The lowered gravity would let you jump high enough to get to a secret room full of
weapon parts
Are you doing a fresh King's Fall? If so, do you have space for me?

Solid performer in PvE but nothing special.
You're absolutely right. Have not checked since day 1.
I think once they add it to the App, I think it will get better.

Any IB trains going? Gonna smash up my TV if I have to keep playing with brainless randoms
We'll do one match before we pick you up
I've officially given up on trying to have randoms help me finally beat a Tier 3 CoO. Either I'm with the sword waiting for people to shoot Mini Crota, or I'm taking the shield down only to have the sword person halfway across the map doing nothing.
I may need to request GAF's help later tonight. I have a quest and a bounty riding on it.

I guess my point / feeling was that Bungie's secret math should do more than put certain LL's against similar LL's. Stuff like 170 attack weapons shouldn't be viable against e.g. 290+ LL people, they should be equal to nerf guns. But then I guess Bungie doesn't want make Y1 Legacy weapons obsolete so they allow old stuff to be competitive even in gamemodes like IB and ToO.
You had me at Messenger
No. No weapon parts for you! You will only get accelerated drops of

Exactly. No fun intended or allowed.

at least you haven't gotten the people who pull out their legendary swords and try to dps him that way...
Can you block Crota sword slam with an exotic sword?
its a good starter legendary auto rifle, but there's nothing great about it perk wise.

Only one way to find out
Wh...Who would think that's a good idea? If that happened I'd just jump off the edge to save myself.
That's odd. I switched to my messenger in my first game to test out the damage drop and it wasn't putting people down like it used to. I definitely did better once I switched to Red Death/Hawksaw. The damage was definitely reduced. \
Though I also switched to my her benevolence, and it was still a one-shot headshot and was wrecking people.

Re light level:
What I would like Bungie to add in is what your equipment will be changing to when you infuse it.
It isn't random, the numbers will be there so it can't be that hard to show us what the outcome will be prior to doing so.
That's like my No.1 request.
Edit: Wlecome back LT! Didn't realise you got banned

It's also completely OP in PvP. The only heavy weapon I get continually murdered with long after the heavy ammo has gone.
Ahh can't wait to get that. I always get torn up by that in Iron Banner too

Yeah, I think you get those once you hit rank 3 with Variks, every week on reset day. They aren't the same as the Judgement Chance that costs 1 weapon and armor core though since there is no chance for gear to drop. Once in a while I get an etheric light too (not that those are good for anything anymore).
Edit: top of the page...
Remember the time how we used to find these?

This weapon part situation is so much worse than I originally feared. We all joke about it but I'm not playing the game right now. Like at this moment I don't have Destiny on. Might be the first afternoon in months where I've been home and I'm not playing.
And the biggest issue I was having is that I now have 10 new weapons since Wednesday morning. And I can't infuse or level any of them up. So I can't use them at all.
I played CoO last night for an hour and got 10ish weapon parts and I broke down a bunch of year one guns but I still didn't have enough to infuse my Thread Upon Stars up to a high enough light level to use it.
Feel defeated.
