Getting to Mercury means extra rewards at HM raid equivalent levels. What else could they put in there without breaking the balance even more?

Anyone need to do HM up to Golgoroth?
Also does anyone have Totems checkpoint?
I can host the CP for a few mins.

I think the point here is that chasing Light Level isn't worth it in PVE and it isn't worth it in PVP either.
People want meaningful loot, not a number increase.
A raid is easier to do and against AI. Flawless is for skilled players playing against real opponents. It's not a valid comparison.

An actual Messenger Year 2 archetype pulse and a high impact revive kill sniper would go a long way. It wouldn't break any balance but would give desirable PvP weapons to PvP players. Nothing OP but something arguably best-in-slot. All the Mercury primaries are good for is infusing better weapons up above 310.

sounds like 3+3=6?
So you know how the fight works?
We know very vaguely. Very vaguely.

Are you guys combining?
I want to join a raid.
Edit: Wife wants to play as well.
I'm up for whatever.
Yeah, I won't be available around that time. That's my Walking Dead time.
I can definitely do it tomorrow as well.
Sorry, just saw this. Jumping on.

There was a time when end- game loot was awesome.
I miss those days.

Drop me a message and I'll add you to my party if you are feeling brave lol
I came back when HoW launched after quitting back in October and there was a ton of stuff to chase from the raids. Good times.
99% of the good stuff is now quested for, leaving barely anything good to chase from raid content.
Bungie need to have a look at that.

...and shafted by golgoroth - no hard drop
See above.
Got my first 320 drop from warpriest, then golgoroth decides to not drop any hm armor.

It pisses me off, because it's hardly like they'd HAVE to create new content for endgame loot.
Do simple reskin/restats of armour that's not redundant in Year 1. I am just upset that I know every piece of armour that is viable to my character at Level 40. None of it is a mystery because there's like 8 pieces. There was so much more variety in Year 1 Legendary's (though admittedly, that too boiled down entirely to the Raid gear - also stupid).
kk I'll come on, but I don't have too much spare time so let's try not wipe LOL
what's your PSN

Yup, jyst shoot me an invite
Loved my VoC. Even over my Fatebringer. Personal preference, of course, but I just prefer scouts to HC's, and a full auto one...man, those were the days. Walking 3 miles uphill both ways to see Atheon.

A heartfelt thanks to Rubenov and Wicked who carried me to my precious helmet and tried to go even farther than that, only to be thwarted by connection woes on my side of the internet.
I remember doing a Sepiks arc-burn Nightfall with deafmedal.
We're about halfway through the first part and I'm like "Don't you have Fatebringer?"
"Oh yeah!! Forgot."
Then he proceeded to steal kills the whole rest of the time.

I'm just thinking about this from the viewpoint of someone developing this game. Other than the Messenger, what was so great about trials last year? The sniper sucked, the shotgun sucked, the hand cannon was average, the summoner was garbage at the time, and the exotics you could get anywhere else.
Other than there not being the messenger anymore almost nothing has changed.

Nobody. Apparently Wicked isn't streaming today for some reason. I was watching a little of Krafty but the double carries can get painful.
Those Year 1 memories though.
DRIZZAY STREAM BLUE SCREEN - BETTER THAN FOOTBALL
Other Vault memories:
Lunlunqq getting 2 Fatebringers and sharding them both immediately. "That's like 7 and 8!"
Scarletham gets a Praetorian Foil and shards it. "I hate fusion rifles!" Drizzay "That's like the rarest drop in the game!" " I still hate fusion rifles!"
Was there when Dan Miller from BNG got his first Vex.
Was not there when Cosmos got his. #ForeverNoVex

We need one more person for one Trials match so I can finish a bounty. Win or loss doesn't matter.

I didn't realize he is most always doing a double carry until recently! He uses that sniper like it's a primary gun, lol. Makes some unbelievable shots at crazy angles. Guy is a beast.

Need 1 for Oryx HM
Kraftyy is unbelievable, uses TLW like it didn't get a nerf and those drag snipes are unreal.
On another note, found it hard to counter rushing invectives on this map. Wish TLW wasn't as bad (ibmy hands).

Speaking of just Mercury loot: Messenger was amazing even back in HoW, Scholar was a great PvE scout, Summoner was a theoretically great auto if only the entire weapon class wasn't garbage, and Jewel was a great PvP HC completely overshadowed by the Exotic Trinity.
Now: Pulse is basically same as IB Nirwen's but worse, auto rifle is pea-shooter incarnate, scout is well designed and fun (but sadly not competitive), and hand cannon wouldn't be good even if HCs hadn't been murdered (it's another TTK HC with super low base range, smh).
People can debate the utility of elemental primaries until we're blue in the face, especially for PvP weapons. But nobody is gonna argue that Last Resort is some kind of "must have" perk. I don't even look at the weapon when I open the Mercury chest now, just the Light.
Yeah how I miss thee. I don't want its silly range back, just a basic ability hit where the gun is aiming. The pattern it leaves on a wall when testing is ridiculous.

part of me thinks bungie doesn't want mercury loot to be too OP because then its a case of the rich getting richer .. best rewards for best players.. which goes against all the other loot drops in the game
that might just be a cop out tho
