FTFY

Lightswitch is still the worst ever

Lightswith with the burn of the enemy = fuckin bullshit, many times I died because a thrall with arc burn became a "one hit KO"

hopefully that shit never comes back....

also late to the party but Lord of Wolves getting a year two edition!!?!?!?! thank you bungie! THANK YOU!!!!!

 

[mehrmantrout]

I just read that they're "upping" the faction rep received for activities. Is this true?

It still seems to be ridiculously low for some activities - such as upping to 60 faction rep per heroic strike. If my math is correct, it would take you 1000+ heroic strikes to go from faction level 0 to level 25 for the exotic mark. That's nutty.

Yep it's all going up https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/44545/7_Sterling-Reputation

They have been doing so much better than clueless Deej. I don't enjoy ragging on the man, but he doesn't understand Destiny fully and just does cheap PR speak.

Yes, including the Weekly Shaxx Crucible bounties too as the final reward. I got one that way.

I guess someone on reddit noticed the Thagomizers perks got reworked on the Bungie Armory. Maybe we will actually get these exotics in the update.

Apparently, it happened a while ago. And also, sad that so many of Bungie's exotics continue to be:

Unlock a subclass perk node for free.​

Now that's a true power fantasy!

Eternal Warrior, looking at you.

What's funny is Bungie's update on the same day finally reduces the grind in Destiny (100% infusion and guaranteed drop paths).
Will it take Massive over a year to learn from Bungie's missteps?

Ughhh... that change is SOOOOO lame. Not to mention dismantling an HE only yielding ONE HE mat versus 2. NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

But, finally use for DZ creds and normal credts, and rerolling HE only taking creds now is super awesome.

5 steps forward and 4 steps back :\

I think it would be pretty good in very certain circumstances. Combining Black Hole and Blood Bound for more damage or ever Quiver to have 3 tethers that all have increased length/range would be pretty cool.

I'm all for more unique stuff though.

I mean sure if they bothered to do that. I'd love to have the triple nova bomb and the persistent field perks together. BUT NOPE BUNGIE HATES FUN

I'm with it. Just need to finish the salvage part of this quest first.

Hopefully that last sentence means they're putting some serious work into changing/removing garbage weapon perks.

hey wheres the pve sandbox chan-

hey why are you focusing on pvp, does that mean shotguns are going to get nerfed fur-

FUCK OFF BUNGIE.

They need to stop this whole PvP focus. 'HURRRR PERKS ARE TOO STRONG FOR PVP, REMOVE THEM COMPLETELY. HURRR GUNS ARE TOO STRONG FOR PVP, NERF THEM'.

Getting sick of their shit. PvP is fun and all, but PvE is where it's at.

edit-And balancing for pvp should stop affecting PvE balance. Like fuck off. I don't care if little tommy keeps dying to the thorn or my shotgun, little tommy should stop being a loser.

24 hours until the big stream.

LETS GO

Post that after the stream.

Hey man

Shotguns have been in a shit spot since TTK

That's a fact

Knowing Bungie, they won't buff them because 'muh pvp' is all they care about, despite pvp being absolute trash because they can't balance for shit. So I'm setting my expectations even lower for tomorrow by preemptively complaining

 

[Axoman]

Is that bad? 15% of those games resulted in an IB-related drop.

Yes, I'd say so. That is about 1 drop every 6-7 games. Which means less than 1 drop an hour if you figure the average Control match is about 10-12 minutes.

They can buff shotgun PvE damage without effecting PvP.

Oh, I'm not denying that. I'm still bitter about Shot Package being removed and losing my Matador 64, as well as the 1 Thousand Free-Headshots Stare.

But wait until we get the info first. No point in whining now until we get the facts.

The only thing that would get me excited is if they split the PvP and PvE balance(Finally).

But I know that's much too complicated for Bungie, so I'm letting out all my rage now so I can focus on what they actually say and then rage at that without rambling.

Don't do this to yourself.

 

[TheTylerDurden]

Wow just played First Light..for the first time in at least 8 months or a year.

 

[GalacticToast]

Running Nightfall. 2 spots.

 

[friday]

As far as improving destiny, I would like to see some singleplayer mechanics that resemble raid mechanics. I did Kingsfall for the first time last weekend and it felt like a completely different game to solo and strike play.

PVP wise, I am pretty disappointed by the map design of Destiny. I played a lot of Halo 1 and 2 back in the xbox days and I feel like both of those games had much better map design. Also, the movement in PVP can feel so chaotic at times that the people who can exploit it to their advantage just outplay me so hard that it's frustrating. That's more of a me being bad with controllers thing though.

Fuck this game would rule with a mouse and keyboard.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

They can buff shotgun PvE damage without effecting PvP.

That's not the problem right now. The issue is that they nerfed the effective range of shotgun, and in heroic strikes or nightfalls, where before it was doable using a shotgun, now is suicide trying to get that close to enemies, because you die in 3-4 hits no matter what light level you are.

Especially in Nightfall, it's even worse.

Damage isn't the problem. It's the range nerfs, which shouldn't have been touched for PvE.
