[BenjaminBirdie]

some old Turkish film. there's another clip of him getting shot somewhere that is equally horrible/awesome.

edit: found it!

lol i thought it was rowan atkinson

 

[Nori Chan]

Just leveling up my Warlock at this point. Already have a hunter at 28 and a titan at 21

 

[E92 M3]

What exactly changes in the higher difficulty strikes/missions? Do enemies get new abilities? Is there anything more than "Enemies do more damage, enemies take more damage, and enemies are only weak to certain damage"?

I think better rewards and Exp also.

Any details on that Queen event?

No so far, besides ambiguous language used by Bungie.

 

[J Jizzle]

Add me if your looking for a weekly strike partner (24 warlock) - psn : Super_Stew

 

[VE3TRO]

Same name as on here.

BTW I don't have a mic sadly the adaptor is fucked, but I'll hear you.

 

[hydruxo]

lol i thought it was rowan atkinson

Hahaha same here

 

[Icyflamez96]

closest to cat ears we're getting

What shader is that?

I've seen some that ammo only drops for your holstered weapon, wipe sends you to orbit instead of checkpoint. Lots of different things.

 

[nicoga3000]

I don't remember being this addicted to a game before. I went to bed at 5am today. Woke up at 8.
I played alpha and beta and even though i enjoyed it i wasn't hyped at all. Now all i can think of is this game.

Hahahaha yup! Haven't stayed up playing video games in a LONG time. Destiny wins.

 

[IAmRandom31]

I now have 4 Exotics and an exotic bounty. RNGesus loves/hates me.

15,500 kills. 0 exotics. Atleast 100 bounties turned in. 0 exotic bounties.

I need to get right with RNGesus

 

[ComputerMKII]

The highs and the lows of Destiny. Goddamn this game.

You should have one character of each class.

 

[purg3]

You look like you are doing alright

I've been very lucky to say the least lol. Just not in the stuff I actually want though.

 

[Acorn]

People who say that have never had an experience with RNGesus. They are infidels

RNGEvil is all I'm getting. Well until I finish this exotic quest in 2018

 

[Tovarisc]

I now have 4 Exotics and an exotic bounty. RNGesus loves/hates me.

I have 5 Exotics [Sunbreakers + 4 Bounty Weapons], RNGesus must love me more

Edit: 6 because I can't count, got Gjallarhorn because why not.

 

[Zomba13]

Can't wait to get home and try the new mode. I hate vehicals in this game though. Need mah sticky base

It's hardly a new mode by the way. Just playing on the two maps that have vehicles. When I tried it it was control on that Mars map. I only played the one game.

 

[purg3]

You should have one character of each class.

My main focus is my Titan and getting him fully raid ready and to complete it. So I'm not worried about other classes now. I dismantled it for the shards lol. I'll find more stuff down the road with my Titan so I'm not worried about it.

 

[darthbob]

What shader is that?

No Shader, actually.

Dead Orbit Chest and Greaves, Vanguard Gauntlets, and the Exotic Helm.

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

Looking for a raid group for the vault.

On PS4.

Please PM me. I want to run it badly.

 

[lazybones18]

You can still do it. The bounty is to kill Xyor. Killing Phogoth and completing the strike isn't necessary. I did the weekly strike yesterday and ten immediate did it again to kill Xyor. Thorn is pretty rad!

How many waves did it take for that bastard to show up?

 

[Goodacre0081]

I finished off the Striker subclass but I still haven't received a Exotic bounty yet. anyone know how to get this thing to pop?

 

[StoneHeart]

I have 5 Exotics [Sunbreakers + 4 Bounty Weapons], RNGesus must love me more

I have no exotics or legendarys. May need to start praying to RNGesus before I go to sleep.

 

[Allez Phill]

I play Titan and I've noticed this too, we're completely out numbered by Hunters & Warlocks in PVP. I've already received both trophies for 100 warlock & hunter kills, doubt I'm anywhere near it for Titans.

What makes matters worse is that I preper the Defender subclass, so my super does do a whole lot of good in most PVP situations. But the I do have my favorite grenade, Magnetic. I've obtained so many post death medals with that baby.

The Defender is pretty good. I'm nearly maxed out with the levels for it. I will say, the Defender class can feel bare in other game modes besides Control. I dont like the grenades they provide. I would like to use the Suppression grenade, but it's AOE is piss poor. Funny thing, I threw one at a blade dancer fabulous kid, knocked his ability out and he was running as me with his gun lol.

 

[Bizazedo]

If RNGesus is real, then why do bad decryptions happen to good people?

A test, obviously, to see who strays to the path of the Marks and who remains faithful.

RNGEvil is all I'm getting. Well until I finish this exotic quest in 2018

You must believe for it to happen.

*******

So, question, important to me before I burn motes. The Exotic Engram for Motes...has anyone gotten anything that's NOT a chest piece?

 

[Magwik]

Gotta get 500 machine gun kills for my exotic bounty. Guess who is waking the hive.

 

[Two Words]

I've seen some that ammo only drops for your holstered weapon, wipe sends you to orbit instead of checkpoint. Lots of different things.

But do the enemies themselves change? To make an analogy, in Diablo 3, higher difficulties grants mobs more stacked affixes.

 

[Sai-kun]

Can't wait to get home and try the new mode. I hate vehicals in this game though. Need mah sticky base

It's not a new mode. Just a bunch of modes all in one playlist.

 

[E92 M3]

15,500 kills. 0 exotics. Atleast 100 bounties turned in. 0 exotic bounties.

I need to get right with RNGesus

I'm in the same boat as you, with (too) many hours played already. I might donate to RNGesus foundation.

 

[Afrocious]

I have 5 Exotics [Sunbreakers + 4 Bounty Weapons], RNGesus must love me more

The reason I included the hate part was how we can only equip one exotic gun and one exotic armor.

I honestly think RNGesus is evil. Enjoy your love from your false god. I'm gonna go buy legendaries like a good atheist.

 

[super-famicom]

How many waves did it take for that bastard to show up?

He shows up in the final wave. I think it's the second drop ship that he arrives in. Make sure you have solar weapons for the Wizards and arc for the Knights (they are all shielded).

 

[purg3]

That's why I still don't understand why there's no trade system. I get Bungie's intentions, but the reasoning is pretty dumb, especially in the long term of the game. Someone could have used that, and I trashed it for mats. I could have easily traded it, like for that fucking badass roman soldier looking Titan helm...Hell I would have given it away to people I normally play with that could have used it if there was an option to do so.

 

[todahawk]

Golden gun super is looking brutal

It's been nerfed, took like 4 shots to kill that dude.

 

[Kor of Memory]

I finished off the Striker subclass but I still haven't received a Exotic bounty yet. anyone know how to get this thing to pop?

Last I heard it's entirely random. My wife got one about 5 days ago, and a friend of mine 2 days after that.

No idea at all what has triggered them. We've all been playing the same amount of time, and doing almost all of our activities together.

 

[CLBridges]

Gotta get 500 machine gun kills for my exotic bounty. Guess who is waking the hive.

I need this too and didn't even think about this mission. Thanks for this post, gonna make it so much easier now

 

[zma1013]

I am ready for the Vault of Glass now, level 27. Any on Xbox One ready for it? We gotta get a team of 6 to do it I guess right? ZmaKicksYou is my name if anyone wants to try it later on tonight. East Coast here.

 

[R0ckman]

Maybe I'm not getting the mechanics down. I have mostly legendary gear, I notice that my team mates are having an easier time nawing through higher level foes, while I struggle. For example when fighting yellow bar enemies at higher levels it takes me a lot of work, but I see my comrades using weapons and taking out 30% where I'm taking out maybe 15%, even taking advantage of weak points. What the hell is going on?I know SOME of my weapons are not fully powered up, maybe half way or so before it starts getting you to grind for the damn materials. Are fully upgraded weapons (compared to mid upgraded) going to make that much of a difference in the end?

 

[Tovarisc]

I'm gonna go buy legendaries like a good atheist.

Oh I'm there with you. Had to buy head, chest and leg armor so I would have legendaries for all armor slots.

 

[purg3]

I finished off the Striker subclass but I still haven't received a Exotic bounty yet. anyone know how to get this thing to pop?

I thought exotic bounties were RNG based, no prerequisite? I just got my first bounty yesterday and I've been at lvl 27 for a while.

 

[darthbob]

He shows up in the final wave. I think it's the second drop ship that he arrives in. Make sure you have solar weapons for the Wizards and arc for the Knights (they are all shielded).

Xyor appears in the third dropship.

I've done that Strike a few times with some GAFfers and that's how he's always spawned, so I suppose it's possible for him to appear sooner, but I've never seen it.

 

[Goodacre0081]

hmm. what triggers the regular Mail bounties?

I'll send my...I mean his PayPal for payment

 

[Flo_Evans]

Dead Orbit Chest and Greaves, Vanguard Gauntlets, and the Exotic Helm.

Arn't those crucible gauntlets? Kind of like those better than the dead orbit ones I got.

My guy is starting to look like a KISS reject.

 

[The Lamonster]

My wife wants me to tuck the Hive in for bedtime. She is sick of me waking them.

 

[Respect]

Reverend Rahool is just to your right as you zone into the tower, he always accepts donations for the church of RNGesus.

Was it the third one? There's so much chaos in the Summoning Pit that I probably miscounted.

 

[PedroLumpy]

Anyone doing weekly heroic strike?

 

[Blue Ninja]

Man, I keep forgetting what the Patrol symbols stand for. The only one I can remember is Assassination missions, because it only rarely pops up. Anyone got a good overview of what the others are?

 

[The Librarian]

Whoever says Hunter's are the best class have never taken one to a high level Strike or Raid. Hunter's get piggy backed the whole way through

Dude, I can turn invisible and clean out mobs like no one else.

COME AT ME

 

[darthbob]

Arn't those crucible gauntlets? Kind of like those better than the dead orbit ones I got.

They're Armada Type 3 Vanguard gauntlets which you can purchase from Zavala. I got them from a Legendary Engram, my first Legendary item actually.
