Destiny |OT41| Don't Worry, Leave Happy

Hey guys, I've been out of the Destiny loop for around 4 months, and I just started playing again. When I left, I was at LL318 and had done pretty much everything there was to do, but now that I'm back I'm finding myself stuck and haven't been able to increase my LL at all so far. I've been doing Crucible and Strikes, mostly, since my old raiding crew doesn't play anymore. What avenues should I be going down to increase my light, if Crucible and Strikes simply isn't working?

I'm on PS4, by the way.

LL really is meaningless though. Don't get frustrated over it.

Do the April update missions. Then do chalenge of elders. Make sure to get the sigil from the reef. Nightfall will also help increase your light
IB coming soon. Easiest way to get high LL loot

Huh, alright. Thanks guys.

So far the two exotic engrams I've gotten have decrypted to LL 314 and 319 shit. :(
 
So which of these grasp rolls is worth holding on to. Until omnigul comes around again in a farmable form.

1. OES, counter balance, handmade, third eye

2. OES, secret round, feather mag, third eye (dismantle?!?)

3. ORES, partial refund, perfect balance or braced frame, glass half full

4. ORS, counter balance, fitted stock or hand laid stock and grenadier

5. ORES, secret round, fitted stock, feeding frenzy

None stand out as God rolls but a few seem decent. What order would you rank them?

1 and 4, dismantle the rest.

If you get any exotic engrams keep them until you are at least 330 ll. Better chance of 335 ones. With the new April update exotics and faction packages can decript up to 6 ll above your current one

Strikes - Updated 6/20/16 to add missing notes
Heroic Strikes now include a randomly-selected group of three modifiers
One modifier will be applied from each of the following lists
Group 1: Small Arms; Specialist; Brawler; Catapult
Group 2: Airborne; Thermal Burn; Arc Burn; Void Burn
Group 3: Juggler; Commander; Ironclad; Exposure; Chaff; Angry
Trickle will not be applied to Heroic Strikes

No Trickle is great news.

Alternatively, save exotic engrams until their slot is the lowest light level, then decrypt one. Use/infuse. Rinse and repeat to raise your LL.


Commander is new, I think.
 
Cannot even imagine how quickly a void walker with T5 dis, The Hunger, and Embrace The Void would get their grenades back— it's already every 4s with a kill now.
I remember a CoE a while back with catapult, and you basically got your grenades instantly. As long as you were getting kills, you were throwing grenades 100% of the time. It was soooo much fun.
 
Really happy about the the way they are going to implement the modifiers on the Heroic Strike playlist. Pretty much guarantees you can make a fun build for the week.

I was worried they would add Trickle.

They should make the weekly rewards strange coins again and then all would be right in the world of Heroic strikes.

The issue of some people not being able to join games seems like a ridiculous reason to cancel the event.

Are these people not able to join any matchmaking games?
 
I can understand cancelling IB as its not around too often, so the people having these problems would not be happy missing IB, but trials? It's around once a week, I don't see how missing one week is going to really hurt these few people, but instead bungie decided that everyone had to feel the same pain, so now no one can play trials or IB until they fix this bug. It's unbelievable how many bugs that were caused with this update. I've never seen this many bugs before come from a patch. This patch seems to be adding more problems than the April update did, and this is much smaller than that was.

Whatever bug it was, was affecting people that were able to get matches as well. If they use a similar structure to Halo it sounds like the match arbitration server went rogue

Just take this opportunity and roll back the patch.
The changes were stupid. This is a sign from the Traveler.

/spooky voice "'Buuuuunnggiieeeeeeee. Treat the cause not the symptoms. Quit half-assing PvE buffs when nerfing for PvP. How are you surprised so many Gunslingers use Ahamkara's Spine when you shit on the Symbiote? Spooooky

You know what, I forgot about that game. I take that back. Division was awful when it came to bugs. This is the most bugs in a destiny patch that I've ever seen.

Edit: it seems like the longer the live team has control of the game, the worse their patches get.
