If it wasn't for DGAF, I'd have stopped playing a long time ago. I just needed to vent. I still want to do the things I haven't done yet (KF, lighthouse, even the damn Black Spindle), but the obstacles the game puts in your path can be so annoying that it makes you want to stop. Give me a day or two to chill out and I'll be back.
Hrm. Today is Black Spindle day and the rain is putting a postponement on grilling plans.

Anyone need the Spindle? It's pretty easy.
1.) Shoot Orbs
2.) Kill Majors
3.) Everything Else

In the tank room watch out for the snipers up top. The boss is very easy to kill so killing adds first is pretty safe and efficient. Just make sure you shoot those orbs down. I can hop on later for a few runs.

Ha, I didn't even know it was Black Spindle day! I think I'll give it a miss for today and try again the next time it comes around. Also I'm on Xbox, playing at UK-friendly times, which cuts down on people to play with.

I'll be on for a little bit if you need someone to help for a run or 2.

Strangely enough I've never gotten the Vienna Singer to drop after a whole bunch of runs. Would be great to finally add that to the collection. Sadly I'll be at work until like 9. That mission is super fun at 335. :)

Haha, I just tried loading into cosmodrome patrol three times in a row to get the hive major kills and everytime someone was already down there to kill them.

I'm done for now. Might be back for more IB later. Rank 5 on all and already have 11 bounties each for next IB.

On Dungeons I typically rush B to help get early control. When that doesn't work pushing the hallway to C/A sometimes does. When that doesn't work controlling B high can sometimes buy your teammates enough time to take B and puts pressure on the snipe hallway.

Also, controlling B high with a fusion rifle is very amusing. Could have sworn I felt hatred coming from my screen. Put two players on tilt.

As bad as I am at multiplayer shooters, I managed to post a 2.22 KDR in a Rumble match this afternoon. I only came in second, just barely, but as often as I just get rocked in free-for-all style multiplayer, I was actually weirdly proud of myself.

Then I put together a weirdly clutch boss encounter against the first Echo of Oryx on my second alt's first go of it...eh, it's just a game, but sometimes you get fun little moments.

I shouldn't be proud of this since it was dumb to not run when I got caught in the AoE and I had to reload on the hand cannon, but screw it, I won.
 
Played all characters to 5 in IB. Boots for all with level five packages. Crucible and faction packages for all three? Boots.

Nine pairs of boots. Seriously. Nine packages, nine pairs of boots. I'm dumbfounded.

I was hoping for boots between IBx3 & CoEx3. Needed them to hit 335 on both Warlock & Hunter. I got a single pair... at 334. This god damn game.
 
Up 17000-16000 on Shores of time with C and B capped. 1 rando caps A to triple cap and we lose all the points and lose. GO RANDO!

I sent him a msg to Never cap A when we have C and B. No reply :\

When you think you're done for the night after 3 weeklies, 1 win and 1 normal IB bounty:

96% iron banner gloves dropped to 94% when i infused to 335 from 280 while equipping and being 328 overall light. I tried while NOT equipping and being 334 light for something else and overall % went down as well. THat's pretty lame. Maybe you have to level up the things before you infuse to keep the % :\

That's the main problem I have with control. Stop trying to be some hero and cap everything unless you are obliterating the other team and doing it basically for the hell of it. Cap two points and concentrate on defending/taking them. When you already have the lead/advantage don't go running off and switching spawns. Nothing gets on my nerves more than switching spawns. You have to realize once that happens, whoever is on the opponent's spawn will most likely get killed thus giving them points, rinse and repeat which could lead to losing. A lot of games we lost was because of that.

IB this week wasn't so bad. Lag wasn't too bad for the most part. I just wish we had more map variety which will continue to be an issue.

Some more snipe hype.

 
Doing HUD-less reset raids. No stream because Unstable is lazy. If you want a stream, ask Ji66a.


Nightfall is Darkblade. Modifiers are Small arms, Berserk, Chaff and Airborne.


CoE is Super Kill bonus. Modifiers are Chaff and Specialist


Crucible weekly is Inferno Rumble.
 
Near top of page hype!

For the first time in 6 iron banners, (getting all chars to level 5) I managed to get the top score bounty! Without even noticing it.

I've had that specific weekly bounty, with 3 out of 4 achievements done, on every char, since the very first IB.

I'm keeping the completed one as a momento, of the one time that RNG, and bad players, meant that I was officially the best player out of 11 others in a crucible match!

The keen scout perk has made me go from hating hunters in PvP to actively enjoying them.
