Pulse rifles need a nerf. It doesn't need to be a nerf to their ttk, just their effectiveness at close and long ranges, and a serious toning down of their stagger.
If you watch Krafty's stream he gets rekt all the time, constantly. He's a total pro mode player, best of the best... But he carries two players
scrubs
So I've heard.
I was watching nKuch and Frostie earlier and they picked my friends apart. lol

Just bought a primary engram, first I've ever bought.

Pretty much exactly what I was hoping for.
Good stuff man! I totally forgot about those engrams since before, it wasn't worth it "light" wise but now it's all about perks! Maybe I can finally get another 1kYS or.... is getting Eilene possible or only through Gunsmith?
Pretty sure it's gunsmith only.

Oops, Eirene* haha. Yea, that's what I thought. Oh well these are way better than buying year 2 version of exotic gear that I most likely won't use, just to spend marks.
I can believe I got that roll. Was hoping for some Drizzay salt but he's MIA

AIM DOWN SIGHTS:
10% movement speed increase to all class base player traits and 10% less movement speed reduction while ADS

AIM ASSIST:
Aim assist chart in order from most aim assist to least aim assist. (Low rate of fire and low stability = higher value; High rate of fire and high stability = lower value.)

I built my computer in 2011 with a 120GB SSD (With OS, now with Win10). Because that's so small I really never took advantage of having an ssd other than booting up. I bought a 750 GB 840 EVO (gross, I know) SSD during last year's black Friday that I've yet to do anything with. Super waste.
I'm trying to be more organized both at work and at home. This weekend, I spent hours making files at home and categorizing everything, and currently working on doing the same with my emails. Later, all my digital content (games, pics/vids, music, docs, etc.).
So today, I finally decide to use my 750 GB SSD. To take advantage of an ssd, the OS needs to be on it. I cloned my Win10 SSD and so far so good! I'm almost officially next gen on my PC. If Destiny were to come out, I'll be ready.
Feels good.

The chaos is neat and all, but I'm starting to get annoyed with the whole "every possible public event starts at the same time in the same area" shit. I'm really trying to kill these Taken Zealots for this quest I have. There were two people in the area with me and they did defend the warsat instead of helping me kill all the Taken guys. Then they got Urzok to spawn and it was just a bunch of shit everywhere. Couldn't kill the zealot, have to wait for the next Taken corruption cycle. Why not just stagger the events?
did you rek him?

Need 1 for trials starting in about 10 mins

I can understand why that must be frustrating but I honestly think it's kinda cool when a bunch of events pop off at once

I'm less annoyed now that I completed it the next attempt.

*her. She's actually streaming some Trials now, I just tuned in before crashing for the evening. Doesn't look as promising as the two Mercury runs me and Twilight did last week. Help her Twilight-Gap-Kenobi, you're her only hope.

Having played with both Ghaz and Rawk, my money would be squarely on Ghaz.

I want the IB weapons next week to be the Hand Cannon and Rocket launcher along with chest piece and helmet.

I assume helmet will be last.
Slammin_Hammon

Yeah, and to make matters worse I expect the mark to always be sold so only one armor piece a month.
Terrordactyl

I guess we're running another card in sorry :/
Agent_Tiro

No worries
GlamFM

Yup.
So gloves and class item (again) this week i assume.
I hope the IB scout is really great.
The same as hung jury, but not taking up half the screen would be nice.

The helmet will be last, and the following week will have a dlc which will make all current gear irrelevant.

Anyone else up for some trials? Aiming for armour piece but happy to see how far we go.

Just got a Zhalo out of a primary engram and was not happy. I need legendary primaries with a good roll.

Here's the match https://www.bungie.net/en/Legend/PGCR?instanceId=4213394574&characterId=2305843009215028629
And what I get in response.
I normally don't give people the satisfaction of responding but this guy pissed me off so much. I'm seriously still angry.
Apologies for shitty offscreen shot. Didn't want to take the time to do it correctly.
That's a really impressive pussy level.
I maintain that King's Fall is actually a fun and well-designed encounter for the most part, but it is way too unforgiving on HM. If "hard" means "challenge", which it should, then they need to rethink how they give us challenging fights.
As it is, "hard" just means "hope for good luck". As it is, 95% of groups are incapable of continuing a raid after 1 death never mind 2. Making a clutch revive, recovering and regrouping from the brink of defeat.. that is a challenge. Simply restarting every time someone dies isn't challenging, it's tedium.
It's not like Dark Souls where when you died it was because you fucked up and lost focus. I don't mind replaying the same thing over and over in DS because every death is fair. But half or more of the deaths you get on Oryx are completely unpredictable. You can play the EXACT same way, time after time, and one out of every 10 times you'll get killed randomly because two taken knights decided to target you at once, or two Ogres targeted the relic runner when they normally wouldn't. Now multiply those odds of death by six for each fireteam member, and again by four for the four bomb phases, and you end up with a situation where it's extremely difficult to get through the first three phases without someone dying to something out of their control.
I've #teamfirsttry'd it a few times, but due to my time zone I often don't get to play with a lot of Gaffers and I have to go LFG on LFG. Again, I like the raid so it's fun for me to play even if I'm failing, and I take the leadership role most of the time because people just seem so confused on how it works. That's fun to me. But it could be so much betttteeerrrrrr guys just let us fucking revive teammates. Increase the timer or limit revives like Golgoroth I don't care but dying to bullshit and restarting the raid over and over again sucks!
