Yep, what this guy said. Ji66a and I usually run VoG on Saturday Nights but ended up doing them last night.

PSN - W193D0UT
XB1 - WipedOut

Will add you on both now, but please invite me next time you run VoG on PS4!

 

[Tri4]

Need one more for trials!

Still looking for 1 more

 

[ToyMachine228]

I won't be able to play today, but I'd be down tomorrow for a couple of runs if my nephew is on to help.

Destiny is pretty dead on the xbox side. Only a good 4-5 people from dgaf that are regularly on these days. PS4 oth, there are a lot more.

I had to go on reddit, Bungie forums and lfg combined to find a 3rd last night.

Ok, let me knoW. I should be available from about 830 to 1130 EST tomorrow night.

Haha--has the Dragon's breath thing caught on? Ape and I ran a bunch of strikes with double bubbles, double wongs, and double breath.

Surplus+wongs+bubbles and Titans spec'd for orbs on heavy kill = profit.

I had way more fun than I expected outta strikes. And it all came down to the people, yup.

I was inspired by your posts, and also by replaying Halo. The Dragon's Breath skin was on a flamethrower back in Halo so I really like how they used that idea for the Year 2 version with the napalm effect. Seems like kinda the idea they were going for Year 1 except they didn't bother to make a new effect and just stole the closest pre-existing thing (solar nades). And it sucked because of that. But now it's cool in a silly way.

I was getting a hilarious amount of hit markers by Breathing on the tank during Shield Bros.

 

[Unstable]

I woke up a year older today

Time to celebrate bday by playing video games.

Sounds like a great way to cerebrate. Happy bday btw.

yo guys, sorry I missed you last night. Turned out I didn't have time to play but I'll be around today if you want to run a card sometime. Just let me know if some time(s) work well for you.



Happy BDay! I finally made the Thunderlord post just for this special occasion!

Totally. It does a number on the walker in the Taniks strike too. Dragon's Breath may not be the DPS king of year two, but it sure is fun to light the world on fire.

 

[Kyoufu]

Things have gotten so stale that people are using Dragon's Breath now.

I've seen it all.

 

[Nothus]

Decided to help a couple of friends farm for a Grasp of Malok (I already have one).
So we load up the level 16 version from the map, and literally the first time we kill Omnigul, I get another grasp drop!
It's actually even better than my original, with counterbalance and third eye.

Meanwhile my friends try for ages and get nothing. Unbelieveable rng fortune on my part.

The Illuminati demands a Neo, Dan and Bear trials team.

If two Mercury capable people are up for a run in a little while I am game.

 

[DrDrizzay101]

...TFW you forget about faction allegiance being required to wear your new exotic class item. Except you switched factions because obviously you want to level a different one now for that faction's exotic.

These are the paper cuts of Destiny's design. Fewer arbitrary requirements please.

Don't knock it until you try it bro. New meta for max laughs.

o_0 Who is this Dan person?

Happy escape from the uterus day, Nami!

o_0 Who is this Dan person?

You are Dante, he is Vergil. You are Porom, he is Palom, you are Mary Kate, he is Ashley Olson, etc.

Or when Bungie streamlined Crucible bounties that require wins so that completing matches count, except they forgot to do that for the exotic class item quests too.

 

[Namikaze1]

Well, I'm done with the strikes step. I guess 4 more for Jigga.

 

[Kadey]

Nope.

 

[mehrmantrout]

I can't see the new Crucible (Control) match making lasting long if the last 5/6 games are any indication to how its going to go as every match has been a blow out

You're just too good for the other team man

Which map was that? Looks like some people quit early. Was it one of those terrible large maps?

 

[mehrmantrout]

There is that as well, second wind boots are OP for getting back into the action and firebolting people

Which map was that? Looks like some people quit early. Was it one of those terrible large maps?

Frontier, they were crushed after about 1 minute and they started quitting out. Last 6 matches

W 20k v 11k
L 20k v 14k
W 20k v 9k
L 20k v 13k (was dropped in nr the end)
W 20 v 18k
W 12k v 3k

Just playing around with a SLR10, Snapshot, HH, Weyloran's. Holy shit, such a quickscoping machine.

Does thorn need to be fully upgraded to be viable in pvp? Asking for a 'friend' who just got one from a legacy engram.

You need to upgrade it to get the DoT etc, you don't need to bother using a shard to get the last damage increase.

[Ji66a-Man]

Thanks for the strike runs, Nami and Ape

No problem! Thanks for teaching me all those nifty strike tricks. We banged those out so fast.

Speaking of Thorn i just pulled it out for a few matches, I forgot how much of an assist machine it is

 

[Midshipman]

Yeah I was trying for a nechrocasm since that might get pulled forward next patch. I'll play around with it I guess.

Wait, that can drop from the legacy primary?

Nope you need the Crux from Crota, which is about the rarest exotic drop

/sadface. Had got my hopes up after that comment. Still waiting on mine to drop =(

Is that so? Well that explains why I got a red death from the one I just impulse purchased. Maybe I should do Crota more.

Have the vendors in the hangar disappeared for anyone else?

[xplicitone]

Here was the final boss (with no more mercy) I had last night with my nephew (raiders) and random I picked up from lfg (abraf):

We had a 12.31% chance to win. They had a combined 168 flawlesses (1 guy has 96!) versus Our 17 and it was awesome. A perfect 5 kills each across the board. Teamwork was pretty amazing and felt great. I'm pretty average so helping 5 people now their first year 2 flawless (2 of them, first ever flawless), feels pretty good.

 

[Kalamari]

My throat and sinuses are burning, as well as full of phlegm, it sucks.

 

[Agent_Tiro]

My golden gun isn't killing people in trials. Three times I've hit people and seen it do damage and all it has done is taken their shield off them

 

[GalacticToast]

Anyone want to go to the Lighthouse?

 

[todd360]

I'm thinking about playing some trials later today. I haven't played for awhile and it's a good map so wth.

More like a golden-shower gun, amirite?

Phew, the week I almost forget to check Xur and he has Gravitons.

 

[Agent_Tiro]

At least some people like that kinda think. A golden gun firing blanks is disappointing for all

Trials last night was great. Today everyone is taking twice as long to kill. A full clip of doctrine to kill one person! Even with just body shots that should never happen

 

[todd360]

A girl asked a guy I knew in college for a golden gun shower once. He said he would do it, but then he couldn't find it in himself to pull the trigger when it was time to shoot.

T'was a werid day.

Sitting at the Psion Flayers. Anyone need the Nightfall? Also, I want to kill the arc one last to try for the cloak.
