I really like it. I have been using it in PVE and it works well, but I have been murdering people with it in PVP on the low rate of fire setting. I am pretty surprised how well it works for me in PVP.
Whoa, if deaths don't cause it to go down, easy peasy. I still have my Year 1 Thorn in the Vault.

1:
encounters go 350/360/370/380; know people have beaten it at 365ish; 6 friends struggled and failed second encounter at 350-354.
2:
SIVA key fragments; turn ten into a key from your inventory to open one of the three post-boss chests for an extra roll for loot, once per week per character. Five fragments can reroll raid armour perks. Shiro will break a key into fragments for 250 glimmer.

Would anyone be around in about 5 hours to take down the final boss of the raid? I'd like to get it done before reset.

Anyone doing a fresh raid run? I'm 364 LL, so I would like to try it out. On PSN.
Also what's the quicker way to get motes of light and weapon parts.... I got carried away with upgrading everything.

Man that Wretched Eye strike is tough. It (along with sepiks and omnigul) will give up to 365 blues though if anyone just wants to change it up some while grinding. I'm just going to stick with Sepiks though from now on lol.
Anyone from Sweden or the Nordic region looking for people to play with on PS4? Long story short, we're losing players and have a hard time to get raids together these days and are looking for new players. Would be awesome to find more Swedes to play with but anyone in Europe would be fine I guess, we just don't want any latency issues while going over the big pond.
If you're interested, send me a PM or add me on PSN. User name is Rajala.

I was at 358 and had no problem up to the second part. So you can at least get the first batch of rewards.

I was watching some YT videos and seen people mention that when the perks of weapons appear in the DB, it means they are in the game. Same video mentioned the perks for elemental Thunderlords and the microphone rocket launcher were now in the game. Secret ROI exotics or maybe for Winter/Spring updates?
yup, it's the last DLC before the sequel.

Today is the last day of the week I can get the third artifact. I pushed through the story through my titan and warlock last night and my titan finished the quest by doing archon forge. I'm hoping I can hop on an active archon forge and grind for my warlock to get 100% good deeds.
your Guardian is supposed to carry over altho who knows what that means. i don't really mind a wipe. i assume a bunch of cosmetics will carry over. dunno about the gear.

I'm sure there will be some smaller updates that add to ROI, kind of like the April Update we had.
This will be the last hurrah before Destiny 2 though.

This is what I´m looking forward to the most actually.
Destiny is such a mess at this point - can´t wait for a wipe.

Can anyone tell me what the silver coins are for? I have 200 of them and the only place I can see where I can use them is in the tower, where I can purchase some items, If I buy 200 worth with there be any more need for them? Are they purely micro transaction stuff?
Yea, I assume it's just some emblems or shaders for D1 players. I can't imagine they would carry over all the gear.
Buy stuff from Eververse. You got free 200 Silver from Bungie. The rest you need to buy with real money.
lol, that would be hilarious.

Interesting! Have they said anything about the release window? I'm guessing late summer early fall 2017?

I'm really debating getting back into Destiny with the release of RoI. I stopped playing after The Dark Below, got all 3 characters to lvl 31 and was done, got tired of replaying the same small areas of patrols or missions for those TDB bounties every day. I loved the PvP and shooting mechanics though, and IB was one of my favorite things in modern gaming.
If I get back into it now having missed HoW and TTK, do I have a fair amount of gameplay before I hit that 'grinding for light' wall? Or am I going to be replaying those same strikes 50 times a week pretty quickly?

Between the new missions, Prison of Elders, the two raids, strikes, quests, new maps and game modes and Trials of osiris.... there is a lot of stuff for you to do if you stopped after TDB.
HoW is short but TTK is pretty massive. you have plenty to do there.

That sounds reasonable. Reveal around PSX/ early 2017.

The core gameplay and design of the game are almost certainly not going to change very much, For instance, the grindy light/progression system.. So if you consider that a mess now, Destiny 2 will probably be a mess for you too.

That´s cool - I just want them to settle on ONE system and just go with it.

Why do I keep hearing this? That Destiny 2 will wipe everything?
If anything, I can see a totally new solar system to explore but.. wiping all characters and their weapons/gear? Theres no way - no one would buy it lol

99% sure all gear will be wiped.
It´s gonna be a sequel, not an expansion.
Destiny is must already be soooo restricting for designers right now - bet they cant wait to start over without all the baggage.

Bungie needs to fix the issue of siva cluster not linking grimoire to accounts.

What I want is, 4-5 areas on each existing planet to explore, not just 1. Gimme Old Russia, Old Chicago, all that, multiple areas on each planet. Add Europa and 2-3 new planets with in depth areas and lots to do. Keep the core gameplay the same. Keep the awesome weapon designs for exotics and expand on legendaries to have more variation. Add more enemy variation, not just reskinned knights for bosses. Have 2-3 raids at launch that are tied to progression, eg at 200 light, X raid becomes available and it varied between 200-240 light between normal and hard, then when you get to Y amount of light, another raid becomes available etc.
Those are my hopes and dreams for what they do with the second one.
How is it restrictive exactly?
It can be a sequel and expansion at the same time...call it a game sized expansion like how some MMOs do it.
It will be a bit shit that just in order to appeal to the new players and be more accessible at the start they will have to make everyone start fresh..even the people who have put hundreds of hours into it since the game came out.
I mean you can't aim for MMO like game design but then choose a non MMO philosophy of designing a sequel.
The other MMOs that did indeed do sequels (FF, Guild Wars) don't because the original had become so old that it was better to just start fresh. WoW on the other hand hasn't had a sequel but only large expansions since launch and despite the fact that it looks like a 10 year old game still.
