Anyone running anything? 27 hunter LFG.

 

[ZangBa]

Everyone is still using ARs and shotguns and they don't feel any different at all. RIP my pocket infinity. :C

 

[SlenderBeans]

The Raid should NOT give you raid armor you already have.

 

[squidyj]

Yeah if anyone is running raid or nightfall on PS4, PSN Squidyj

28 hunter and 27 warlock

 

[Darryl M R]

I've needed only 1 more piece of armor for 2 weeks now, I have 2 titans and run hard mode. That way you get the loot for normal and hard, on 2 characters. But alas, I have 100 Ascended Energy in my inventory.

We weren't born lucky it seems.

 

[Fathead]

Eh. Do you like pulse rifles?

I prefer scout rifles but i will use a pulse rifle

 

[scarletham]

If anyone is running anything halfway decent, 27 hunter, PSN scarletham

[hydruxo]

Proxima Centauri or A.1F19X-RYL? Can't decide which to buy

 

[darthbob]

That was the same point I was making

Indeed it was. I needed to re-read your statement again.

Basically what I was trying to say was that Bungie already screwed up by not providing the reward consistency from the get-go. If that was provided then the need to cheese wouldn't be there, IMO.

 

[Hawkian]

In an ideal world, they should reward players better and more consistetly. This would discourage "cheesing". There are far bigger problems in their game than cutting corners. If the loot system weren't such a joke, this would not be an issue.

this is actually a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of design and user behavior. I could go into detail if you are interested when I get home, but I don't necessary want to bore the crap out of you guys than I already have so just let me know.

I am thinking of the more prominent loot games in recent mind and never have any of those games received the attention this game is getting. Difference? Diablo 3, borderlands, hell warcraft consistently reward their players for their time and, more importantly, their wins

Were you around for Diablo 3's launch...? Consistent reward certainly wasn't a problem, but...

It also feels a little awkward getting into these things where people are like "well, in x other game..." because I really don't even think Destiny belongs to the same genre even by a longshot. Both the core gameplay loop and progression system have almost nothing in common with Diablo as an archetype, so when you compare them directly as entrants in Diablo's genre Destiny really does not stack up at all well.

but really, I have a very hard time coming up with games that are all that much like destiny. I really mean it. I've played lots and while I would not use words like "groundbreaking", it is a pretty unique creature.

I'm in. Let's get one going

Ps4 hainesGTO

[SlenderBeans]

Welp, I got TWO helmet from Atheon.

Bungie why

 

[Namikaze1]

Raid hard mode beat! Even with the patch, Bungie can't stop us!

 

[Twilight Gap]

lol

 

[Effigenius]

You mean the pocket infinity they completely ruined? 3 shots and reload



.

Yep, that's the one. I only just got it, so of course it's the day it got nerfed.

 

[ZangBa]

On second thought, I think pocket infinity is still pretty good. I'll miss how silly it was before but I still feel really powerful with it. I wish they increased the magazine size up to 4 at least.

 

[everyday math]

All raid armor acquired
FateBringer
Aspect of Glass meh

 

[arimanius]

Just got crucible rank 3. I fucked up and leveled FWC first. Lol So I'm thinking of. Using a weapon now. I have the chance, hawkmoon!, the supremacy, invective, ice breaker, and admonished III. Thinking about 77 wizard or one of the scout rifles since they got buffed. Any suggestions?

Nightfall spoils this week (3 runs):

9 shards
Legendary Engram (2 shards)
Lucky Raspberry (had +20 intellect more than the one I owned - broke my old one for 2 shards)

So 11 shards over 3 characters. Bit boring, but I needed them.

My wishlist currently:

No back up plans
Hawkmoon
Gjallarhorn
Hardlight

Please, Xur.

Every time i think i play too much you guys prove me wrong <3

 

[SlenderBeans]

All I want is some boots. I don't need THREE raid helmets.

 

[TURBO1112]

[op_ivy]

how is pvp post patch? everyone still rocking autos or have we truly reached "balance" where other weapons are better suited to different roles? more of the same or lots of pulse, scout, and hand cannons to complement the ARs?

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Need three more for a raid group. We're all 28-29. Starting in like 15 minutes.

Definitely seeing some diversity.

Are you on PS4? Is this normal? If so PSN: Darryl_M_R

Down for normal raid, level 28 Hunter.

 

[EL CUCO]

What's the safe spot during the mesh waves on the Nightfall for you guys? I did it on the platform but some people are having trouble there.

 

[Namikaze1]

A level 29 using a maxed Vision of Confluence against Athean does nearly 1200

A level 30 using a maxed Vision of Confluence against Athean does nearly 2000

Just read patch notes. Will have to come up with new strategy for the Templar.

Green cave to the left of the platform

 

[Namikaze1]

I'm stil lol'ing at what we did during the Oracle and Templar phases.

Sorry, Bungie, but you can't stop the cheese!

 

[X-Frame]

Looking at the stats for the scout rifle Proxima Centuri II -- it has greater range than a few of my sniper rifles .. the hell?!

 

[Namikaze1]

How many shots for supplicants?

3-4 shots compared to the 8 it took me last week.

 

[op_ivy]

Definitely seeing some diversity.

thats great! curious to see what'll fit me best/map rather then always auto all the time

 

[JackHerer]

Anyone trying to do the raid tonight? I'm a level 28 Hunter so it has to be normal I guess. Send me a friend request or message on PSN. My ID is Lpwnsome. Thanks

[Namikaze1]

We all got so excited that we brought Athean's health to roughly 55% on the first portal run that our shield guy dropped the relic shield to see his health and that ended up getting 4 people killed. It was a hilarious moment. But damn, we could have beat Athean in two portal runs.
