Aweome, I'm there too but I have other stuff still to accomplish being that I haven't been on PS4 that long, Working on NM exotic class item and only have 3 more ranks to go for Dead Orbit Titan butt towel.
Don't even wear those anymore because now the best thing to do is rank up the vanguard.
I'm just getting one exotic for each alt. Future war cult on warlock is going to take a bit. And yeah I agree, Vanguard is where it's at.

If I'm going to have every exotic then that means the factions ones too! Plus, they look dope when you load into crucible matches.

Will you buy the year 3 season pass?

I want more GUARANTEED content, and would gladly pay money for it. Hell, I've always said that paying $5 a month would be perfectly fine with me.

Check the front page of the thread for newbie raid info. Hawkian runs newbie raids, I suggest you sign up. The older raids don't take long anymore since they are outdated. Kings fall depends on your current light level and other stuff.Oh man... seeing everybody do raids here, i'm jealous
How long does a raid take you guys?
I would probably give them one shot, depending on price and what is promised. My experience with season passes has been that they aren't worth it, but I've put enough time into the game that I'd likely give Bungie the benefit of the doubt.

For Destiny '2'? Most definitely.
If they got rid of SBMM I could happily play the Crucible until the sequel with no new content. A few maps would be nice but considering how they get worse with each expansion I would probably end up hoping I get decent Y1 maps anyways.
But this is getting ridiculous. The better I play the harder my matches get until I don't do well anymore. Get wrecked for a few games then go back to a level where I perform OK. Then the game says nah hold your horses and brings me back up to matches where I do poorly.
If it were just randomly based on connections, there would be lobbies where I got absolutely shit on, and lobbies where I did well, but it would be random. I'd be OK with that. It's just pissing me off that the game is actively rigging my matches - the better I do the worse my teammates are and holy shit is this annoying.
It's gotten to a point where I play 2-3 games and then just sigh and quit the app, try again tomorrow.

that's year 4.
Have we extracted the best method of leveling Vanguard rep yet? Is it running Heroic strikes?
Yeah, whatever system they use is not working. It is a pain when you go from some blowout where your k/d is like 3 and then the next match you get bodied by the other team and end with like a .5 k/d. If they are going to attempt to have skill based matchmaking then they probably need to move to a true ranking system like CSGO or any of the other competitive games out there. Honestly, I just wish I could pick my servers and map rotations like you can on most PC shooters.

Getting rid of SBMM is a must.
Patrol with 2 other people, get a rank once every 45 minutes if you do it right.
What about solo?

I actually need to do the quest tasks where I kill taken champions on Venus and Mars. If anyone fancies we could kill 2 birds with one stone and do both at the same time?
Solo probably just stick to strikes. try them both out and see which suits you better for solo play though. I just put some music or a podcast on and go blow shit up on patrol.
Thanks, signed up
Btw @OP, if you are reading this; the link to newbie raid sign up form is not working. I pulled it from the page source.

They also messed up exotics. Remember when Praxic Fire was awesome? And so was Lucky Raspberry. Sigh.
The strikes can drop strike specific gear up to 335 and the Vanguard packages are a good way to raise light level, too.

I need the 3 calcified fragments in Kings Fall... No one ever starts the raid anymore it's always checkpoints... Poor SARS...
People run those strikes for sweet sweet shaders and ships.

I guess that doesn't help me much when I'm already 334/335 haha.
I need 3 more for a Golgoroth challenge run, anyone?
I actually need that jumping puzzle one too. Don't need it since I have malice now, but don't have it yet. New to PS tho.

Sure but I want a fragment afterwards... Isn't there one in the maze behind him?
We have the CP so unfortunately the door leading back to the maze would be locked.

5 in total. 1 at the elevator before totems, 1 at totems, 1 in the maze, 1 in the passage after killing golgoroth and last one at the start of the piston jumping puzzle.
Door will be open until you shoot down the orb that spawns Golgoroth. You can backtrack and pick up the fragment in the maze.

I will help regardless

Is it close to the shard?
Interesting, I'm curious how many accounts are active out of that 30 million though. I'm hopeful they take this seriously, cause if Destiny 2 is a repeat of what we've gotten in Y2, I will not be returning. I'm up for buying the season passes since at least I know what I'm getting and roughly when unlike the "free" updates we're getting now.
Watch my final round of trials to see how crazy it was trying to go to the lighthouse a couple months back; Stuff like this is the reason why I won't be able to stop playing this game. 15 min video for entire round or just 14 minutes to see the crazy ending.

The dream is alive
I'm down for golgy. Need it on Warlock
If he means the first jumping puzzle it's close to the first 2 shards (before totem elevator and totems), but you need 3 people.
If it's the second jumping puzzle you can grab fragment 4 and 5 (after golg and start of jumping puzzle)
It's all about that RMP at this point Axo. Also finally got some 330 drops with true and zoso after you jumped off.

^Yes please! But I won't be on for a while

Yeah, I stopped wasting SC/heavy synth/motes once I got past rank 25. Seems like if you don't get it at that point you're fucked.
I'd rather rank up other factions and gradually collect the rest of the exotic class items.

It's like I'm punished for having a good game. And I rarely get into a fresh match. Usually most people on my team have quit because the other team is destroying them. And the latency is especially noticeable now. I reached 335 on all my guys and pvp is what kept me coming back. But Sbmm has me ready to take an extended break.

I would be interested in a regular trials carry if you pros are looking for people to run this weekend.
I'd feel weird just having someone play my character to get flawless.
Note: I don't have any problem with people doing that, it just wouldn't be right for me.
