Destiny |OT39| Tainted Love

Quick question:

Is the Vanity a good/great Handcannon?


Just got one with LiTC, Snapshot/Reinforced Barrel, and Outlaw. Below Outlaw is Exhumed.

It's good. Buttwipe of LAB and Lucky uses the Uffern which is very similar except he has Rifle Barreled.

Edit: Top-of-page. I got nothing. Oy
 
Won 14 games lost 1 with drizz and ape today. ELO went down haha. We lost to a horrible team though, according to guardian.gg we had a 98% chance to win -_-

Those were some good games, we beat a lot of strong teams. It's so dumb when playing with 3 good players, one scrubby loss tanks your score and 14 wins versus solid to good teams means nothing. I should play on Grave's account from now on if we want to actually get your two scores up a bit.

Haha, would love to have heard Drizzays reaction to that one

We had finished our first flawless and had the typical let down at the start of a new card. My reaction was "wait, don't push I'm still transferring gear on the app, oh no, last guardian standing..." We gave away first two rounds, then played classic sloppy Trials (wandered off solo, didn't protect orbs, etc.). I wasn't too salty, just a basic scrub game where we all assumed we'd come back eventually. No big deal :p

How do you control the recoil?

very easily actually, it does get tough in 1 on 1 fire fights but the flurry of shots makes for fight or flight thoughts id imagine. maybe the new update made auto rigles more controllable

i dont know how it happened, the weapon suddently started feeling good to use, reminds me of the shingen c days a bit
 
The PS4 tourney starts in 30 mins http://www.twitch.tv/farcognitions

Loads of really good teams in, BSK, Primal, Hot 0-3. Hopefully it will be War and Extreme in the final against Anbu and SirD as theres beef

http://challonge.com/Ps4SaveTheShweatiezPart2Finals

What's the beef? That last tourney where Extreme played on a different account or something? But he's from UK and was super laggy and there weren't supposed to be international players? And they beat Anbu/SirD's team in the finals I think?

Destiny drama is so silly :p
 
SBMM has always existed in Destiny and still does. They just shifted some of the playlists back towards prioritizing connection MM more. It's never been all SB or CB MM, always a mixture of the two.

Don't know what they did but last 2 days the lag in IB has been terrible, wasn't this bad in the first few days..


So at what rank you start getting rewards? 2 or 3?

Rank 2.

edit: ignore kyofu, he's old :p

Yep they claimed he was chomps all the way through (he played on his account). As SirD's west coast he claims Extreme is unkillable. It didn't help that when they won Extreme unmuted himself and laughed at him :d He's your typical gobby UK teenager

Well, that was weird. Playing a match on Black Shield, pulled the heavy and started to run away. Turned around and it was still there. Pulled it again and ended up with 7 rockets.

Helmet at 5 wins, inFusion rifle at 7.

They're not glitched, the bounties carry over from previous week and count for the 5 required for the weekly.
No what I mean is I haven't done any of the bounties except take the last one from Shaxx and it then auto completes as soon as I get it from him. I'll see if it happens next week, but 2 weeks in a row I haven't done any bounties and thr last one is instantly giving me the rewards.

IB, crimson doubles and some trials bounties also count.

Ever since the last matchmaking update I'm having major trouble with my titan melee attacks. It consumes the ability, I hit the guy, but he takes no damage. Feels like arcblade :(

Been having issues with scorch melee, other player gets a shield but mine doesn't trigger. It's just lag, can't do anything about it.

I will upload the screams in a bit, brb

I wasn't too salty [...] . No big deal :p

Solo queue today has been beautiful. Tons of ultra sweaty matches decided by <500 points but no lag.

Oh man of the game were always this good....

Some good games with Bigmanny to hit Rank 5.

Drop rates seem way better this time around for me. Probably my least played IB and most rewarded ever (too bad most of the loot is useless).

Even got the new ship

You should play more trials and work on your skills. I dont know why you dont play more, those last few games before mercury are right up your alley.
I probably have over 1,000 hours in the Crucible. I play PvP every single day. I'm just not particularly good at it :p

I'm a solidly average player. Roughly 1.0 K/D 50win% with every class and in every playlist I think. Last 2 games on a Trials card are almost always terrible for me, I get outplayed pretty damn hard :p

Only way to get better is to play better people. Before long you'll be the one dishing out the sauce.
 
I know bannerfall has a lot of hate, but it brings back good memories, like how a no expectations run turned into my first year 2 flawless with ocean and fali, that felt great and it was funny how ocean would would say "I'm carrying you guys with my pro callouts and revives" haha that was great. I hate that map but I kind of love it just because of that memory.

Picked up 2 legacy special engrams from xur. 1 got me super good advice (the only non gunsmith quest weapon i was missing for year 2, bought it at the kiosk) and the other one got me gjallerhorn. Nice :)
 
Haha, fuck this game :( 40 down 10 up and I lag out

Edit if we're on about Drizzays rage meter I reckon I've had it to a solid 9.5/10 a few times

Double edit Wars playing his rnd3 game against NatzD and NZhoneybadger (ex 13Devs) http://www.twitch.tv/warbulletproof

US/UK v AUS/NZ this will go well

Didn't you (or someone) say 13 Devils would finally actually play in a tournament today? Is that still the case? I don't see any mention of them, but I don't know if it'd be a different team name.
