Arc blade is a close second, and bladedancer my favorite class overall by far. I love the animation, the air dashing, the 3rd person view, and the rare, tense, Arc Blade vs. Arc Blade fights.

However, and I know this will be sort of an ironic complaint as I know how ignoble it feels to be killed by the Blade, but I dislike how it feels to roll up on a voidwalker or striker and slice->immediate death from nova bomb/fist of havoc. it's an at-least-once-per-match thing. I really need to improve my play to recognize the flashing level number on spec better. but I just really hate that feeling of getting hard countered rock-paper-scissors style and completely wasting my super.

the above classes don't react the same way to a sunsinger in my play so far. It isn't as panic-inducing in my target, but that's just fine for me... and I won plenty of 2v1s and even a couple 3v1s last night, and this is without even having everything unlocked.

I chased a guy out of B capture point last night on Bastion. He came in through the chokepoint door, saw me blade dancing, turned right around and ran out. He was on his sparrow and gone. My last slice literally was within 6 feet of the back of his sparrowa s he sped off.

It reminded me of the Simpsons grandpa walks in then walks out gif. He was just like, Nope. Smart man whoever he was.
 
Unfortunately I can literally only vouch for the Vanguard one with the crazy-ass, impossible to memorize name *googles* A.1F19X-Ryl. It's quite good if you're comfortable with your headshot skills. But admittedly, mine was a Rank reward rather than vendor purchased, so I can't really give a full review even of that one. Sorry :[

Remember that Scorch is a one-hit kill in Radiance as well. And yes, yes it does. :)

ahahahah yeah, I saw that and just kind of scratched my head and went back to my bounties, lol

I think I meant something like "I don't care what you're doing, I just want to tag along and play."

It came off as "I just joined your fireteam but I don't give two shits what you're doing."

My bad.

God's had his chance.
Impossible. Unless you mean no legendary equipment but yes exotic equipment in which case -_-

Buy your first legendary boots/gauntlets/chest and you'll basically be raid-ready without any further action.

the cryptarch is a dick. expect no less.

I was inviting you for the vault last night bruh... I'm telling the other randoms I got together "No worries friends! A true scholar and headhunter with an exotic cannon one wields in their HANDS will come and lead us to Victory! To GLORY!!!"

I cried a single salty tear. Got my first Raid gear (chest piece) ... still need The Last Word. :(

haha it's all good. Sorry I wasn't doing anything more fun or interesting. Speaking of which, I wanna Nightfall before it's raid time. Who's in? 77 Wizard and I at your service.

lol aha. I had noooo clue what you were looking to get me for. Just send a PSN message please, I will always always respond <3

You were better off anyway. I was operating at like 35.5% brain capacity at the time I saw those invites. I'd have dropped hawkmoon on a supplicant or something if you dragged me into the vault. Congrats on the gear!

I think I'll try to solo this nightfall on my 25 Hunter this week. It's gonna go so well, I can feel it. The only hard part is the beginning 3 waves when the invisible enemies show and glitch their way into my safe zone.

Good suggestions. Kind of no-brainers, actually. Along the same lines, I'd like the intellect/discipline/strength circle icons to fill up respective to the amount of 100% effectiveness value. I shouldn't have to hover my reticle over them to see this. The pop up window from hovering over should tell me info like; my 76% discipline effectiveness translates into x seconds of cooldown.

Got a Legendary Hand Cannon from a Blue Engram. It's FWC's "The Chance". Anyone got impressions on it? Perks are grenade cool down boost on kills with the cannon (good for my Sunsinger) and range boost on aim.

Thanks. I'll at least take a look at that one as a starting point and try to compare with the others.

Magazine? Are those randomly rolled at all, for that matter?

The Chance is in the Last Word/Timor's Lash/Sir Isaac (very cool little gun btw) family of hand cannons, but that range boost perk might make it decent for all purpose if it's got an 8+ magazine.

Not my preferred kind of hand cannon, but certainly not worth scoffing at. If you can suss out a little build with your sunsinger and grenade spam I say make it happen.

LoL coulda swore the messages I was sending just said "Raid?" lol.. it's my new default mass message when i'm in the tower do my own manual fucking match making for raids.

Still the most ridiculous bullshit this game has thrown at users imo. "Randoms can never beat this super hard end game material!!!!" ... beat it with randoms 3 times in a row now.

I've never beaten Atheon, except 1 time when a Sunbro teammate pushed him off the cliff.

Those "randoms" you obtained however you obtained them are not the same pool of players you would be dipping into with blind matchmaking. But I don't really want to get into this with you, I'm really glad you've been able to complete it, know you were worried about being able to do it at all for a while

Magazine is 6 but impact is nearly full. I'll test it out in PvE.

Ok we're starting a hard raid At 9pm est on ps4. Looking for level 29+ with appropriate weapons.

I think someone on Reddit found that Bungie actually did a ~50% damage nerf to the Mythoclast, based on stat testing. What do you mean by it still does loads of damage?

I am unloading into a player's head, he/she hits me with 4-5 shots from the Myth and I am down.

I've had zero issues with my AR, shotguns haven't killed me nearly as much, still haven't run into a single Mythoclast, and handcannons, pulse rifles, rockets, and fusion rifles are all normal.

Shotguns are still deadly at range. Seen it too many times...

uh, whoa. is this some kind of crazy stuff-as-much-wrong-into-a-small-space-as-possible joke post?
/

Not a joke post. Jesus. If ARs got nerfed what about fusion? Three shot kill.

Playing Clash just now.

I spot an enemy sprinting around the corner and as I'm lining my shot up, my teammate is bladedancing in full pursuit behind them. It was super funny seeing that.

Hey all. Couple weapon questions for anybody who can help. I just got Timur's Lash and Ares Nemesis recently. How are they? Is the Nemesis a good scout rifle after the buff?

I keep encountering a PSN user named BuckyBarnes. This has been going on for three weeks now.

I'm one of the Winter Soldier's targets aren't I?

I have two level 28 characters and haven't gotten any exotic drops.

Just Legendary stuff. Seems ridiculous.

Was about to quit this game at level 24 and one day i got a plan c ouy of a blue engram(before patch) my game changed forever its amazing how this gun changed everything.

4 or 5 headshots from the mythoclast should certainly kill... what AR are you using, anyway?

Hm man are you saying they're no different than before the patch?

Invective still has nasty range, I got one shotted from 20 to 25 feet last night. That one should though. I didn't notice anything that could be considered out of the ordinary other than that.
