Are we expecting anything other than the following with 2.0.1?
- Tess Dances
- Spindle Nerf
- Shot Package Disappearing
Hung Jury is boring gun to use with maxed out stability. Maybe I would like it more if I just used extended mag.
They just announced shot package nerf, give them month to get it into live.
that would definitely make the most sense with how long they've left it sit
I never understood the Telesto hype: from what I've tested, it does just about the same damage as a moderatly good fusion rifle, only delayed.
Outside of void burns, I never use mine: Zhalos is a much better use of my exotic slot!
I find it stupid that they intend to set *all* Black Spindles to 290, especially after waiting that long. They are going to mess with people who didn't get the memo...

If what Cozmo said is right, you're gonna be pissed.

i'll try that

I plan to avoid it like the plague unless the gear has some seriously compelling perks and/or a miraculous de-lag-ification occurs. Not worth the headache otherwise. Gotta rest up for Trials weekend.

Correct. Technically my titan can also hit 309 if I infuse some 310 exotic armor but i'm holding on to them till I can get armor with the stats/perks I want.
309 Titan
309 Warlock
308 Hunter
can't complain
Raid Helmet was 300 sadly. Got Devouring maw with inverse shadow and better already, so i'll take that to 310 instead.
I think shot package is being changed today. It's mid October and they promised a patch for this month.

How long do we have til the patch? Should I even bother playing right now or should I just wait?
Also - people keep mentioning this Iron Banner lag, but I dont remember it. Seemed as laggy as regular crucible.

Goodbye shitty shot package!

I think it's a bad move to set back the dropped version, makes sense for the blueprint version though.

45 minutes.
shit, I should've picked it up this morning to infuse it, dammit. hope the Spindle nerf isn't in this update
Yeah, totally.
I would have fixed the blueprint version to appear as 280, and only that.
It's not a big deal that they drop at 310, it's a proper reward considering how difficult this mission can be for a majority of the players.
I need the nerf curve Bungie!
@_mantis_: - I wrote it up yesterday
- it's in @Bungie 's hands, they'll publish when they're ready
- yes https://t.co/Z98Oxtzfxh

Someone explain to me what's the hype behind the Carlton dance and why everyone wants it so badly?
About 45 minutes to start of 2 hour maintenance.
IB lag is worse. It is known.

Telesto is a great gun. It seems that there's not a single gun in the game that someone doesn't think sucks, outside of hung jury (but it IS too big on my screen, dammit).
Top of page, our lord and savior, The Chaperone:
My issue with Telesto is that the damage without burn is roughly the same as a normal FR. It just takes longer to deal it. Its great on trash mob to generate orbs. But you're wasting special on those then. The idea and its design is great though.
I love Chaperone, its the best feeling shotgun in the game by far. I don't care if Conspiracy is better (have one with rifled), Chaperone has more swag. And you have to work to get the damn thing.

All Spindles currently in the wild will be set to 290. Doesn't matter if you bought a kiosk one then infused it or got a 310 from the Daily mission. All Spindles will be 290, the kiosk will be 280.
I fully expect the nerf to happen in the maintenance today but we'll know soon enough.

I wonder how people can kill Warpriest and Golgoroth after Spindle nerf.
One of the most mind-boggling things Bungie has done since release.

Don't even bother right now. I was getting nothing but contacting destiny servers while trying to join a weekly.
I probably won't raid with people who haven't taken their new Spindles to 305+ yet.

I bought a few extra 300 spindles and infused them into trash legendaries to get them to 300. After the nerf, I'm infusing those back into my original Spindle so it's going right back to 300. Don't need any higher for War Priest/ Golgi.
don't really need it with the groups I've been playing with
Sarcasm? Those guys are easy.

If it doesn't happen after this one I don't think it will. Which will thoroughly piss me off as I used mine as infusion fodder.
I kinda assumed they wanted shot package out of the game in time for all the PVP events. Doubt that a straight up removal of a perk is as difficult as nerfing it and trying to re-balance.
You wanna do that bounty for me?
Oh god so stressful! I think you could find a more efficient guardian than me. You might have one in your household.
Haven't followed shotguns much: Conspiracy is better?
Got one to drop for me yesterday, with Soft Ballistics and Reinforced Barrel: looks like I'll be that guy in IB... ^^
Are they only removing Shot Package, or are they also messing with those two other perks?

The Spindle is not really getting nerfed, they're just reducing its attack value. You can infuse it right back up.
DrDrizzay101

People will infuse them back up to 310 asap. It was easy to buy a bunch of 300 kiosk versions then infuse them into random legendaries. Plus the raid secondaries aren't anything special so they make great infusion fodder. I've gotten a ton of crappy raid fusion rifles in the 300-305 range, plus a raid shotty I infused to 310 with a Spindle. Should be easy enough.
I mean it's gotta be 310 tbh. 305 won't even cut it.
Plus... you don't even need a 310 (or even 300) spindle at Golgo.

No word on whether or not today's update will fix the agonarch rune thing? I need that calcified fragment.

Conspiracy seems to be better out of the gate. Chaperone is mostly about headshots and The Roadborn buff.
They're going to nerf the range on shotguns, so I guess its for Chaperone too.

I think shot package is going bye bye today but shotguns will be retuned some time soon as well.
Fantastic Raid runs guys, we did 3 Raids in just over 3 hours. Total haul (excluding shards):
290 Monte Carlo (3oC drop)
304 Hand Cannon
300 Shotgun
303 Shotgun
304 Shotgun
306 Auto Rifle
306 Heavy Machine Gun
307 Fusion Rifle
300 Warlock Boots (already had 308 boots)
304 Titan Chest
309 Bond (already had 308 bond)
309 Bond (lol what)
310 Hunter chest (already had a 305)
A bit bummed because all I was really hoping for was a ghost and some Titan gear, my Titan came into this with only 300 Raid boots and nothing else. Still can't complain about some of the drops though, and I can use 2 of the Warlock Bonds for infusing on my Titan etc.

The only use I have found for Telesto is when weaker mobs are in groups or mobs are in a choke point. You get solid orb generation when you get multi kills with it and it can be a really good choke point control. I had fun using it during Temlar in the right cave. I could shoot two quick rounds into a crowd of vex coming out of the tunnel and then quickly focus primary fire else where. More than a buff, Telesto would benefit from built in quick draw and a cocoon perk. It is a great utility weapon, more than an outright damage dealer.
In PVP it is really fun (when not in 1v1 matchs ups. You will die every time with that slow charge rate. You will get lots of postmortems though). Once you get the timing down you can use it as a booby-trap gun. Anticipating someone rounding a corner or coming out of a doorway, lace that shit with some telesto bombs.

They just took too long to correct it, IMO.
They straight up said that nerd is coming today.
