Yeah true that, op just said they had the base game so if it's a digital copy they'll be good to go. Physical doesn't bother me at all since I rarely switch games but I know it's important to some people.

If they have year one digital then they'll only need the code though.
It should do though
Yeah trying it out on stream later.
I've got a max range one as well
PC+1 beats it all ends up
Edit Are you playing in the tourney today?

About to run the nightfall 3 times. Question...How the hell do you get exotic shards now? just dismantled two exotics and now shards, just weapon materials.

Nah, that's not a problem. My PSN and Gaf name are different, same for lots of people. Very few people actually use the clan system honestly, most people just use this thread or some popular websites for LFG. You can find the LFG websites linked in the OP.
That said, there's also a Gaf clan list in the OP although it still needs to be updated since some of those clans are outdated. Bottom line though is that the game is pretty dead nowadays so it can be hard to find people to play with around here right now.
Dismantling exotics still gives shards. Just make sure your materials weren't full or something like that.
Yep, that's a Titan. Most people think it's Lord Saladin (who runs Iron Banner) but I'm not a lore-guy.

Getting my first apartment ever soon kinda nervous, but excited. Looking at my budget I'll not be spending on cable, but I'll have enough for decent internet. I need some advice tho. What's the average for a good connection speed for gaming? 60mbs?

Pretty sure it's Lord Salad.
Good to know, thanks.

60 mbs is plenty, just made sure it's wired instead of wireless. That will make a bigger difference than paying more for a faster speed.
Upstream bandwidth is also important for PvP. Anything >10Mb/s should be great.
Cool, thanks. I think at this point we have six, I can send you an Xbox live message later tonight if we have a no show.
I think we are up for a full run and maybe a second challenge mode. Depends on what everyone wants to do I guess.
omg 60mbs is ridiculously fast for gaming. I would think that you cap out seeing any real benefits to online gaming once you have a solid 15-20mbs both up and down (other than faster speed to download your patches) but that's just a guess.
EDIT: yeah like what darthbob said.

No, someone did it to me. But I might just have to try that.
X I need to do elimination bounties in order to unlock the wkly crucible bounties. I don't have a "team" at the moment. If you're on later can I grab you?
Hey, you want to run some games soon?
Honestly, even 30Mbps is good for gaming. Upstream is a little more important if you stream or share lots of pics

And use a separate router. Drizz's connection problems were due to him using the combo modem/router that his ISP gave him.

Hey everyone, been away for a few weeks and only managed to get one of my characters to 326 before I stopped due to IRL stuff. What should I be attempting to get gear as consistently as possible?
Ruthless_Barbarian

Everything.
KF, CoE, Nightfall, Faction rank ups.
Do the CM first since you'll get guaranteed 335 special/heavy and artifact. Then faction rank ups for up to 330 gear. Then move on to CoE and Nightfall.
You can farm CoE for Ghost, Class item and HoW exotic weapons up to 335.
You can farm Nightfall for boss drops - gauntlets and primary up to 335.

Just make sure to always have your highest light gear equipped whenever you do anything, since the "smart loot" system will give you drops up to +6 LL above your current character level. Honestly it's really easy to level up for this update. HM KF with challenge mode gives tons of high LL infusion fodder.

I had a dream about Destiny last night.
A new raid came out and I was apart of the groups that were trying to finish it before a complete guide came out. . it was more of a nightmare.

Clicked to the end and landed on the part when ZW was arguing that he didn't detonate his blight after the text had popped up, FailFish. Man, that was a stressful day that took about twice as long as it should have. Still, it's funny to see the goofy stuff we're trying since we don't know any better. At the end the Shade slams three times because we keep tethering him, lol. Blind raids are the best.

Thanks for the Raid carry!
I'm looking for you on my friendslist, but can't find you. Shoot me a message.
I don't think we are on each other's friend's list. PSN is d-psipher.
My blind group never figured out the platforms. IIRC we were super quick to Daughters since we got Super lucky with Golgoroth and beat it before most people did (and thus making up for our slow Warpriest).
But holy hell did Daughters seem impossible. Hours stuck there. We had no clue why there would be a floating orb sometimes and not others, we kept thinking we had to jump on all platforms simultaneously and attributed "there's no floating ball to follow!!" To mismatched platform landings or lag.
Frustrating as hell but honestly Raids are amazing experiences the first 2-3 times, most specially the first ever.
Nothing like a weekend family violence.
That was tons of fun man!
I'm definitely making sure I'm off from work for every future raid release so that I can run it blind again. I had so much fun.
Next time though, I need to make sure I have more food handy! We went 12 hours I think before we stopped for the day.

I still can't believe how long we took at Golgoroth. Mistakes were made.

Our run was frustrating because we figured out the encounters quickly but our execution was laughable. We cleared Totems in <1 hour, then Ruthless got DC'ed so that put us behind a bit. Even with that, it was only ~2 hours to clear Warpriest. On Golgi, we nailed down a solid two-gazer strat, but our execution was a nightmarish trainwreck. People kept forgetting the basic details even after hours of wipes, Vaal went afk during a great run because his dog got loose... it was rough. Took 5+ hours to finish him and World's First was already done.
Daughters on the other hand barely took more than an hour. For whatever reason we were locked in on that encounter. The problems for Oryx were (1) the LL jump was tough since most of us didn't get good drops, (2) some people were running out of steam, and (3) tensions started mounting due to the long hours and many wipes. It took maybe 6 hours to finish since we had to take breaks, replace people, etc. We were still the first Gaf team to finish but only through superior perseverance since multiple teams reached Oryx first but everyone else quit early.
Overall I'd rate my blind raid experiences as: VoG >>>>>>>> KF >>>>> CE (reached Crota before World's First finished then learned hours later that a Lv31 was required to run sword. I've hated Crota ever since).
#1 Aussie sub in right there at then end
lol true that. Here's the video where we actually killed Oryx:

At 15:30 we died to his Last Stand, but only took another 30 minutes to finish him off.
