Naysayers. Got vid the nf on the first try. Though I am exhausted, lol.

Lunatic how are your shoulders after all of that carrying.

Seriously though good job getting it done so quickly.

 

[vid]

Yep, Looney and Toaster dragged my corpse through there against all odds. And fortunately that should be the last of the "oh no, this might be your only chance to do it" missions on the way to Year 2 completion.

 

[Trakan]

So chroma will be obsolete right? Maybe we can clear vault space by getting rid of chroma.

Chroma armor is still a thing.

[EJRobinson90]

lol that's what you get for coming back....

You going to Gamescom this year? Hope you're doing well bro!

Nope, just returned from holidays in Greece. Pew went to Gamescom today though and played some Supremacy.

And I'm fine, how are you doing?

Assuming these are the old models, so the choice is (a) old faction armor w/ chroma (b) new faction armor w/ ornaments or (c) faction weapon, but I'll be pleasantly surprised if we get two new sets of faction armor.

6pm PDT? I can go 3 times if you need a sixth. 334 and "yup" to all your questions.
androo2300

Edit: Skimming through the posts it seems neoak and ltwood might be your 5th and 6th but still down if anyone needs to bail or can't do 3 runs.

I think it was bitsurugi and Pandora for 5 and 6, but I'll see what happens when the time rolls around.

 

[BoBoThunder]

I want Robocop armor for my Titan. And take the Rare Power Ranger armor for the Warlock and make it into Legendary Gear from a Faction. It looks too good on a Lock to be infusion fodder.

Edit: on mobile. Dunno if this gif worked lol so I took it out.

Robocop would be odd. Because I always remember the NES game where he looked foolish.

 

[Pandora012]

Wow read the time wrong. Someone can take my spot, sorry. If it were Friday I could have done it at that time.

lol, they're fine--because everyone carried their weight.

Yep, Looney and Toaster dragged my corpse through there against all odds. And fortunately that should be the last of the "oh no, this might be your only chance to do it" missions on the way to Year 2 completion.

If not, hit me up.

Helping people gives me a sick sort of pleasure.

Do the class items drop in this IB? regret using my one and only wolf cloak for infusion fodder >.<

Only the stuff he sells plus ghosts drop after rank 5. It's not gonna be a big deal since the rep bonus is going away from it and the emblems and shaders(unless you want it for aesthetic reasons, then you're screwed, I think.)

[Flying Toaster]

I have to do my epic sword quest... The last part the strike. Anyone want to do it quickly?

Last thing I have to do for my year 2 stuff.

I got you, lol.

 

[Kadey]

I'll see some of you later tonight.

 

[Flying Toaster]

Nice! Anyone else?

 

[vctor182]

Any trains going on? If not let's start one. My PSN is same as username

 

[NastyBook]

I'll see some of you later tonight.

I will attempt to suck less tonight. Gonna infuse that 321 Shotgun into a Party Crasher or Conspiracy Theory D.

Aw, oh well. Ty

 

[Marco Tovarich]

Anyone could help me get the Calcified Fragment for the Oryx challenge?

I would also love to give it a try at complete King's Fall in Hard Mode.

I'm a 328LL Titan.

Do IB wins/kills count toward Grimoire? I've been using my Hunter in IB because I still don't have 5,000 kills with him, but I think my total is staying the same.

 

[glaurung]

Do IB wins/kills count toward Grimoire? I've been using my Hunter in IB because I still don't have 5,000 kills with him, but I think my total is staying the same.

Kills count and wins count for the Introduction to Crucible grimoire card.

Game type wins (Clash, Control) do not count toward that specific grimoire card during IB matches.

 

[radiohead1]

I'll see some of you later tonight.

I'm continually amazed at how good you all are at PvP. I try to hop on the train as much as possible, to learn how to get better at crucible play. I'm pretty consistently at the bottom of the leaderboard and really happy when I manage a positive k/d. I try not to get too frustrated, and am always trying to learn. But man, getting owned in 1v1 situations gets frustrating.

Then, when I solo queue, it's like a whole different game. It is not uncommon for me to be at the top of the leaderboard (although it seems like my teams lose waaaay more often when I go it alone). Clearly this is SBMM at work, and when I jump on a Kadey train I am playing with people at a much higher class.

I guess my point is, you all rock. You are not just skilled players, but willing to let the likes of me hang around trying to glean as much as I can!

[The Lamonster]

Wish I could thump skulls on the train with you guys during IB, but I am on Xbox.

 

[mehrmantrout]

anyone else found the IB drop rates gimped, again? 28 games played no perils and 1 shotgun

 

[Agent_Tiro]

7 more rumble wins to go! Had an epic losing streak of about 15 games then won a load with the odd loss. So close to completing this horrible grimoire

 

[Lee]

11 games, 1 shotgun drop, 1 armor drop

 

[LunaticLMD]

Nice! Anyone else?

Congrats on your sword, and completing your MoT.

 

[Flying Toaster]

Congrats on your sword, and completing your MoT.

Thanks for the help

 

[Japanmanx3]

I looked it up on the PSN Store and it won't let me buy it because I already own TTK digitally.

I own TtK digitally and still used the disc and just did this. Go to the Bundle section under Destiny The Collection in the store. Should say something about the PS3 upgrade.

Edit: I'll be on later tonight after the game redownloads. Will be down for whatever...

 

[figadapaura]

Nemesis Star &#128064;

I need it

Will do. At this point the only timed ones that I need to do are Balwur, Oryx CM, and Warpriest CM, and I've still got a couple of tries left for those, so the pressure is off a bit.

Spending the rest of this week grinding for loot to get that light up to par.

My ins of helmets and chest pieces.

RNG and all that, but it feels like the drop rate plummeted after my first day.

 

[John Caboose]

Ugh, elimination/trials is such a terrible mode.

 

[throwawayname]

So I tried to buy the Destiny Collection but I couldn't
because I played the demo/trial a long time ago and my only option was to buy the taken king upgrade which gave me the old dlcs but not the vanilla game -_-
Just to be sure: When I buy the destiny collection upgrade for 40€, which I can now since it is for people who bought The Take King , I will finally get the vanilla game (plus the upcoming expansion) right?

 

[NeOak]

It wasn't in the postmaster? Not sure what they would let him level to, probably 30 since that was the Vanilla max. Probably the $60 collection yeah it would be an even longer shot in the dark to see if the upgrade package worked for him after disc install than it was for you. Thanks for being the guinea pig on that BTW I saw your posts yesterday and was hoping you would jump on it lol


He didn't on X1 I guess I will find out tonight after I buy it if I have to redownload or not

I only tested on Xbox but Reddit says you don't have to.


Nothing in the postmaster. I think the "upgrade" version of the Collection doesn't come with a spark.

The "upgrade" version is only available if you bought TTK on your account.

Friend of mine lost her disc, but has Destiny digitally.

She had to delete it because it kept asking for the disc and before she could download it.

 

[Rehsa]

Friend of mine lost her disc, but has Destiny digitally.

She had to delete it because it kept asking for the disc and before she could download it.

I bought it earlier, said download and went to download page and the Destiny and TTK both went from pending to playable, Collection said waiting since it's not 9/20. If I have to delete the original and redownload again so be it. Can just use the disc tonight for Banner and delete/download while I sleep

Edit: so it didn't download nor can I, guess I do have to delete the disc install then see if the download will work for vanilla-ttk. The theme installed though so there's that

 

[bitsurugi]

I think it was bitsurugi and Pandora for 5 and 6, but I'll see what happens when the time rolls around.

6pm PDT is gona be too late for me (3AM in the morning here at that time :/ ), i'd love to participate some other time, if you guys are gona have a tad earlier starting time.

 

[Highwind]

Sup.

 

[Kadey]

Let's do this.

Train to go when it's full.

I believe so. Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling the game entirely once you bought the taken king? It might think that the demo is the full game when it is installed on your system, which would stop it from actually giving you vanilla Destiny.

 

[Flying Toaster]

Sup.

Congrats on the armor core?

Spoiler

good job on Guardian Lord

 

[void666]

Playing IB. Trying to keep my cool. So far i didn't swear or try to break my ds4.

 

[Kadey]

Team Brooklyn and Italy.

 

[shingi70]

Any Xbox gaffers want to do some Poe tonight?

 

[void666]

Eyasluna > First Curse

I'm disappointed.

 

[optimus8936]

Many, many HCs > First Curse

I'm disappointed.

FTFY

Spoiler

FC is good if you consistently land head shots. Otherwise, good luck, very little room for error.

 

[void666]

Yeah, i'm not that good. I'll stick to eyasluna.
