Sure, happy to respectfully disagree. The game's not similar to Diablo 3. If Bungie were attempting to create a similar loot-upgrade-progress-repeat system as Diablo, Torchlight, Borderlands, Marvel Heroes, etc. they would have quite failed, certainly, and Xur would be a horrible idea. But they aren't, and the things that will be needed to keep people playing are different (more content, the top line item by a long shot).Sorry buddy, I'm at work. Happy to help this weekend though.
And Hawkian, I had this long ass reply written up to your post a few pages back, but this thread moves so fast and people seem to have moved on that I won't bother to post it. We can just agree to disagree on the best way to entice people to keep playing in the long term. I think people need top of the line gear as a carrot to keep playing (especially with limited content) and by making the carrot easier to get, Bungie is lessening people's incentive to play (as what happened to you in Diablo 3).
thats RNG.so here's a funny thing i just realized
time played: 2d 22hrs 52mins 41secs
ZERO exotic bounties....
Not rushing (With Blessing of the Gifted on) increases your chances of random drops from people you actually kill, tho. I hate rushing. V. unfun.
I do them on Tuesday - the second most exciting day of the week lol.
an additional seeker bolt from the axion grenades, not an additional grenade. nothing to do with range. Spawning with grenade energy is the buried lead though.
If I may ask, where are you getting the coins to afford multiple items every week without doing Weekly Heroic strikes?
Pretty dangerous assumption there about the playerbase. Only thing we can do is watch how those statistics progress over time. I think that the idea that all but 10% of the millions of people who purchased Destiny have already stopped playing is hilariously farfetched, but we'll see.
I just finished them with my alts. Having bounties, weeklys, and the daily all on tuesday is waaaaaay too much.
hey would you like to help us with LVL 26 Weekly? Then we can do Nightfall with you

Lvl 28 Warlock
I need 9 coins for Xur before he leaves this weekend. Hopefully I can get that.
Have you done the Weekly?
Tiger strikes and rngesus hopes. Unless you havent don't the weekly 28 yet.

does the weekly heroic strike and daily heroic only give +25 rep each?
An additional seeker is pretty big in my opinion. Couple it with enemies killed by your abilities explode, it will be pretty good for clearing mobs. Also great for PvP, those axion grenades tend to cause other players a lot of trouble. I'm imagining now in skirmish or salvage one axion grenade well track all three enemies if the travel as a pack.an additional seeker bolt from the axion grenades, not an additional grenade. nothing to do with range. Spawning with grenade energy is the buried lead though.
If that's the case I'd love to know this aswell. I'll take P&T over IceB in PvP any day. Great for counter sniping, especially now while Ice is the new hot item.That doesn't explain the P&T infinite ammo. They said you can have infinite P&T ammo somehow. Or at least, I thought that's what they said. Maybe I'm mistaken.
A myth that got me HAWKMOON
yah, placebo

We'll just have to wait and see with regard to keeping people playing. I would nudge your attention toward the OT number and the page number up there in the corner as evidence in my corner.
edit: I just had a weird thought. Hawkmoon is the only exotic I cared about getting in the entire game. I have it. Am I weird for wanting to keep playing without that to look forward to...? I didn't even think about it until now.
do the weekly 28 strike if you haven't. 9 coins.
Queen gear is crap compared to Exotics.I'm a hunter with queens chest piece. Any reason I should grab the one xur has?
All right here it is..
With Chatterwhite
With first IB shader

Do you have any exotics? That's how I leveled my alt so fast. Bought an exotic for titan, leveled titan instant lvl 25 with that and a single purple item. If you did queens missions when available you could have got 2 then an exotic from xur.Ok now I'm starting to get a little annoyed. I've been stuck at lvl 24 forever. I finally get a legendary engram for boots and it turns into shards. Rep takes forever to grind even with bounties.
Will I ever break through this barrier...

I'm sad I missed the SUROS but you all are making Ice Breaker sound excellent. Hope I have enough coins
I have an exotic helmet. Radar one that let's me use it while aiming. I can only use one exotic at a time right? So that makes it useless to me then?
Yea done that already. Also whats the difference between turning in one engram at a time vs 10 at a time to the crypt?
IB is more of a game changer than Suros (which I rarely use any more since I moved to scout rifles).

Then we have a problem.
Am I doing something wrong?
