i only need a 335 chest piece to get one of my characters to 335. since i can't run raid because the people i usually play with have largely moved to other stuff (can't really blame them. still love you guys! :p ) i have been farming strikes for exotic engrams.

i've been using from 20 to 40 3oc a week since the past 4 weeks... and not a single exotic chest engram has dropped.
i mostly got gloves and secondary weapons... probably around 10 or 12 secondary weapons engrams and none has been Zen Meteor. 90% of those decrypted to Hereafter :\

i'm also after some Y1 legendaries like TDYK or LDR but all the engrams i find or buy from the cryptarch always decrypt to either 1000 yard stare or some crappy vanguard auto rifle :|

on the other hand i got this the other day:



:)

ah! complaining worked! finally got a 335 chest piece yesterday. now i have 1 character at 335 and 2 at 334 :)

I got a 335 Weyloran's March from a rank 5 IB package last night. It has Grenadier, Snapshot and Hot Swap. The only good scope is Ambush. Worth the damn or infusion fuel?

Edit: LOL the house of wolves daily still doesn't give legendary marks :(

Does Universal Remote get the specialist buff? I know it did in year one but year two they took away fun things like that, so just wondering.

It's got too little impact. There's a lot of guardians it can't even kill with 2 body shots, and it can't revive/super kill with a crit. I'd pass. If you like snappy quick snipers, the Trials sniper is the best choice imo

Pretty sure that they "fixed" this for year 2 meaning it doesn't get the specialist buff. So at least they're consistent. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong though, I'm not positive about it.

Thanks for the info. I'm not really a good pvp sniper so I'll probably pass then.

Speaking of the UR, hell I've been killed by that thing a lot the past week during IB.
 
Anyone up for a HM raid three hours from now?

Fair warning: I'm not the greatest player around, but if I don't zone out I can follow the program pretty well though:)

So after that great PR pitch, who's with me?

Edit: Internet seems borked, no Destiny 4 me today:(
 
Scrub of the Year. Too bad you can't see exactly what went wrong from that angle, really wish I'd saved my video since I had a perfect angle.

Gonna take something truly scrubtastic to dethrone the new king.
What did go wrong? I mean, I can see you didn't finish off Oryx in time, but what happened? Bubble blocked everyone's shots, forcing a reposition?

this was only my 2nd IB; but I had one of the gloves drop, had a chest drop, ended up buying the other gloves. Not too shabby. All i need now is the helmet for my hunter. I have two other toons but they have only finished the first TTK mission :p

Due to boredom we've started doing random dumb things like having the two titans each put a bubble on top of the front pillars where Oryx shows up for his "final stand." From the right angle it kinda sorta makes him look like his original "female form" from the Book of Sorrows. On that run, a certain guardian who shall remain nameless jumped up to place the bubble. But due to a lack of stability he fell off and accidentally placed his bubble right in the middle, blocking everyone's shot. Most people were too far back to run in front of the bubble so we ended up wiping at literally the last second of our third and final reset raid.

A scrub for the ages!

What is the NF this week?

Thanks to anyone & everyone I played with over the weekend, you guys make IB worth playing. I'm pretty sure my favorite part of the whole Iron Banner thing is GAF trains & the friends you make in them. Win or lose, everyone is just happy to be there & I absolutely love that. Mind you, winning is much more fun than losing.. but I lost more than my fair share of matches this weekend & still had a blast because of the people I was playing with.

On a side note...

I think I speak for everyone when I say thanks for doing this for people & that we (DGAF) are very lucky to have you guys around here. In a game full of "your LL isn't high enough" or "MUST HAVE (insert OP weapon here)", it's nice to know there's still some good people out there willing to help others simply just to help. Cheers dudes, thanks again!

Had tons of fun in IB this weekend, hit 330, used duplicate drops from my titan to infuse-up my Warlock's gear.

I'm not good enough to do Trials of Osiris so this is the only time PVP is rewarding at all for me.

Can someone remind me why I'm opening these sterling treasures again?

The most I hope for is a Crucible rep booster. Chroma gets discarded instantly.

Agreed! Xplicit is still my hero for getting my hunter to mercury:)

Congrats, and I couldn't have said it better myself. DGAF has so many good folks (including my raid crew) and Drizzay is up there at the top. He's helped me out more than once and I can't thank him enough!
