I'm wondering the same thing. Each raid has handled drops differently. VoG had double hard mode drops. CE had separate drops for normal/hard. Did CE have double hard mode drops? KF seems to have just dropped both NM/HM items.

I'm wondering if WotM will drop both again, if we'll get double HM drops, or if keys will still have a use in HM.

CE did not have double HM drops.

This loot table

http://www.destinygamewiki.com/wiki/Wrath_of_the_Machine_Loot

indicates that the HM splicer armor will be re-rollable with Siva Key Fragments.

It is unclear if there will be a chest that will give you an extra HM drop if you use a SIVA Cache key. But people will be angry if they do HM and use a SIVA Cache key and only get a NM drop out of it lol...

But I doubt that you get a double HM drop and then get to use a SIVA Cache key to get another double HM drop.

Looking for 1 more for raid fast clear. PSN Is KC_Darkness.

I feel bad for everyone not getting the thorn quest... I have that thing on 2 of my characters now

Still don't have it. Though I think I only completed 3 quests between my characters.

Guys if anyone up for raiding tonight at around 11:15 pm gmt?We will start as soon we have 6.
Up for various runs.

Psn v1br4t1ons.

Guys, any chance this game gets a PS4Pro patch?

I'm praying for 60fps for Crucible, goddamn.

Anyone still need a Nightfall?

Pretty sure that's a no on that. A few people were thinking the same thing.

This is exactly what Bungie said. "LOL."

Sony made it clear that games played online won't be allowed to have a performance advantage to keep things fair.

60fps players versus 30fps players in Crucible is exactly the issue they are trying to avoid.

If Bungie ever releases a game in 60 FPS, I'll eat my hat.

Bungie and 60 fps don't seem to go hand in hand. Would love to see that for Destiny 2 multiplayer though, but I don't think that's likely.

According to the Shader kiosk, the Bone Marrow shader is unlocked by obtaining all normal mode armor pieces from KF. Surely this can't be right? Surely, the gear from HM KF would also unlock it?

But that's a non issue on PC... They've created a console landscape without precedent, they may as well go full hog.

Besides, that's more incentive to upgrade for competitive players, who would be upgrading for said benefits, to make a safe assumption.

Destiny feels kind of dead all of the sudden, now that the freshly-exquisite Iron Banner is gone

Really looking forward to the next events...

LMAO

Why would people waste their time and ammo spending half the match shooting at nothing anyways?

Especially if you MISS one of those two shots that are needed to two tap.

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

What's a good high-impact sniper for the raid? Not sure if I should infuse up my 1000-Yard Stare (the campaign one) or pick one up from a vendor.

1YKS is great, especially with the right perks. The Final Horizon sniper from the Crucible quartermaster is also a good choice, if you have the marks for it.

 

[wesleyshark]

I can't believe this guy is serious about this...

Regardless of you *technically* being able to two-tap *some* guardians who don't have their armor/buffs optimized (and provided you don't miss!), this just seems awfully dramatic. The DoT is what made Thorn so deadly, not final round.

 

[SumptuousLemur]

When did Festival of the Lost begin last year?

Just trying to think of when the Halloween event might start this year. I thought it would have begun by now.

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Uh.. is there any difference between the record book gear and the gear dropped in IB, apart from the fact the the latter has ornaments?

The IB gear has PvP specific perks on it.

 

[BiGBoSSMk23]

Also, I know it's mostly RNG but are there any guides to get sublime engrams quicker?

I'm trying to get Hesperos set for my Titan.

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Last year the event began on October 26th, and lasted two weeks until November 9th.

Nope, gotta have that sweet normal mode loot ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

Although it doesn't need to be a class set, you can have pieces from your alts and it'll count.

 

[Doberu]

Need two people for WoTM psn. It's a chill run and we're doing monitors.
hit me up on XxkatsuxX

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

The best source for sublime engrams right now are the regular WotM raid chests. You also have a chance on getting a sublime engram from the daily public event rewards on each character, which you can do once per character every day.

Nope...but I think I get more in AF but I could be mistaken.

Just gotta let it happen.

Yeah, I just learned that there's a second shader called Ascendant Plane which is unlocked by acquiring a complete set of HM armor. Someone remind me please: Does HM KF only drop HM loot or both NM and HM loot?

 

[WeTeHa]

Still don't have it. Though I think I only completed 3 quests between my characters.

Gotta do those weekly bounties!

HM drops both NM and HM gear.

I talked to my uncle who works at Bungie and he confirmed there will be a 4k 60 fps port for the PS4 pro. Exclusive for 1 year like the Jade Rabbit. The PS4 Pro will automatically detect that you are playing on a premium console and will unlock all exotics in the game for free.

But i think he made up the last part because I still dont have a Jade Rabbit after 700 hours of playtime.

Maybe to you, but I'm still chasing perfect rolls on my PvE and PvP load outs.

I think everyone should lower their expectations for Festival of the Cost. Its not going to be as epic as IB was this past weekend. Last year it was all cosmetic junk.

Iron Banner is also a monthly event, so that will be back before you know it.

how many bounties have you turned in? do you remember on which type it popped?

 

[silver.tongue]

You guys still need ppl?

 

[Mindlog]

Went into the Nightfall with a dopey weapon setup because I didn't feel like opening up the third party app to transfer my stuff over and I wanted loot at the highest light level.

389 Ghost

Nice. However, using my Saint 14 Helm and not my Immolation Fists because of the loot drop ruleset is stupid. Light Level is stupid.

 

[WeTeHa]

Well I could point you to Light_Night, but I don't want to crush your beliefs.

And yeah it should be Saturday, because Light_Night has classes.

I won't be there saturday (or maybe the entire weekend). gotta work :[

 

[WeTeHa]

how many bounties have you turned in? do you remember on which type it popped?

all 4, every week, on all characters. got warlock last week and hunter just now. no titan bounty yet.

Edit: Oooops double post.

 

[Ambitious]

HM drops both NM and HM gear.

Oh, good. Thanks. Now I just need to have luck finding people to run KF a few times.

 

[Pandora012]

I won't be there saturday (or maybe the entire weekend). gotta work :[

Hmm, you there Friday? I don't mind waiting. I wonder if the others will mind.

Edit: You're working on the 21st? Thought it was this weekend.

 

[Doberu]

You guys still need ppl?

sure do!

 

[TheFlow]

sure do!

room for one more beginner?

368 titan. psn

Sorry just got filled up.

Edit: Oooops double post.

cool, i'm still waiting, but i don't think i've been quite so rigorous about completing every bounty, weekly.

on another note, with HM dropping, would it be worth hoarding some engrams?
edit: i'm only LL 353

 

[eggydoo]

I can't believe this guy is serious about this...

Why would you take PvP advice from a PvE player?

 

[WeTeHa]

Hmm, you there Friday? I don't mind waiting. I wonder if the others will mind.

Just to be clear, we're talking about this weekend, right? so a normal mode raid?
Friday afternoon EST could maybe work for me (like running between 2 and 6 pm est), maybe sunday afternoon after as well.

But it doesn't matter to me, i'm 386 with all 3 characters, so I'm ready for hard mode.

I'll be available the entire weekend after hard mode launch.

 

[keakster]

Any chance there is a Warlock and a Hunter hanging around needing step 6 "Equalization Equation" of the OP quest?

 

[TheFlow]

Sorry just got filled up.

all good

Yup. Just got one from a public event.

Thanks guys.

Nope talking about hard mode. I just thought you were working this week since you said you could do HM on the 21st.

I'm confused
