Fatebringer is soo satisfying. Precision kill and enemies explode. Love it.
I play as all 3 classes.
I just jump from the 2nd disappearing platform as any class and have no trouble landing 100% of the time.
I got that combo 7 out of 9 times, now there's only 1 exotic bounty I haven't got, which the odds are heavily against me.

Yeah, Thorn is my go to weapon has been since I recieved it. In PvP it's utterly hilarious. I've seen people completely panic when they are poisoned and are about to die.
I've seen people run into walls, jump around oh and last night one guy walked of off the ledge at B on Shores of Time
Delicious.
Oh and it's great for earning tons of assists too point wise, so great for that bounty.

I had to quit after the Giants Chasm, unfortunately. Still need to get the drop from the Gatekeeper now.

Yep, I can confirm this works well. The first two platforms are super easy to jump to and time correctly. When you activate your class-specific jump after the 2nd platform will vary a bit but it's pretty simple.
yeah I really don't understand the complaint. I've had an easier time with headshots (and Vex bodyshots) using Hawkmoon than anything else in the game.
well, if you're talking about the vendor tdyk, then hawkmoon has the same rof and stability
tlw isn't that good at all in pve
That's the worst strategy I have ever heard, I don't get why would anyone do this. Just use some heavy ammo synth and have everyone go RPG, 3 goes to the left, 2 shoot 2 rocket each at boss, get out, one last guy finishes (if he still need to) the keeper grab the shield gtfo. one person goes into the middle, use rocket laucher to defend 2-3 mobs (can die) while the rest shift right, 2 goes in, one with the shield the other with a rocket, 2-3 rocket on the gate keeper + super and he's down. the shield guy clear out the gobs while the other guy goes up and grab, do one cleans and gtfo, (should take like 20 sec here?). at this point every mob outside is gone except the middle ones, everyone get to middle, the middle guy might be dead but who cares, 5 with 2 shield is more than enough to hold middle. everyone pop super, generate orb, unlimited super, gg
I'm a Lvl 24 Hunter and would really like some people to play the weekly heroic strike with, eventually leading to playing Nightfall and the Raid when my Lvl is higher.
So, anybody from EuropeGAF, specifically GermanGAF looking for someone in their fireteam around that Lvl?

The others will eventually come. I have all 3 of those weapons. Also Pocket Infinity, but got super good advice and skipped on Super Good Advice.
Oh - on normal, the strategy can be very flexible. Lately, I always think of the raid from the Heroic perspective.
On hard too, but a level 30 has to solo the portals. On 29 it would require two people.
That's a viable theory. Hopefully we'll get some new info tomorrow.
Well lately, patches have been coming out on Tuesday/Wednesday. Either way it's all good at this point. Mostly everyone got their raiding in already.
Thorn just needs a few more rounds before reload tbh.
Bungie seems like one of those mmo devs that are quick to nerf but slow to buff however.

I got Lord High Fixer as a drop and that has the increased stability and it just feels a lot quicker. The reason I brought up TDYK is because chaining kills increases damage.
It's simple with a titan, all you have to do is jump of the second platform that appears and time when to activate your 2nd jump on the thin ledge, because they can make it, haven't done it with a hunter but if push comes to shove I'd just blade dance across if need be.
Warlocks have it "hardest" because of that bump on the thin ledge pushing them off with no emergency second jump to bail them out, even then you just have control glide on and it's simple.

LOL So good. God I hope the cry babies dont run to Bungie screaming "nerf". I've seen a few people already complaining on forums...probably same people that used to run around 2 shotting with the Vex Myth.
Yeah Dante, I need that fatebringer. Im sure I will use it more than any exotic handcannon simply because Ill be able to save that slot for Gjallahorn on hard Raid runs and equip the praedyths revenge for oracles.

Which jetpack perk do you use? Very important!
It can be wonderful in pve. It can headshot like a beast. Use your special and heavy to clear out more resilient enemies.
All depends on how you utlise your loadout.
2nd platform as in the one right in front of the starting point? Isn't that really far?
All I got is "grants bonus damage " and "increase stability while damaging"

So just because a strategy is different from yours, it's 'the worst'?
Yours relies on heavy weapons far too much and random variables far too much. You can't guaranteee everyone has a good rocket launcher. You can't guarantee everyone will have a super ready to go or if it'll be useful. On hard mode, you cant kill praetorians in one hit unless you have a maxed out G-horn or something similar. And also the very fact that you let someone die in this makes your 'strategy' stupid. OPs strategy is used by lots of people and the main thing is it WORKS. And it's simple to do.
If you jump on the first platform, no it's a simple single jump, could almost just sprint onto it.

The iron Banner was a disappointment imo.
I was expecting to be able to use any type of gear setup, running all the slots with exotics if I wanted.
That would be the ultimate Iron Banner, hopefully something like that happens.

I mean far from the endpoint.

Me and gothief were discussing just that the other night, it'll probably be nerfed at this rate the more people that use it and or get destroyed by it.
Oh and it's the only gun with surprised eyebrows.

Call me crazy, but I am actually a big fan of the rare blue crucible hand cannon Silvered Mk. 41 or whatever its called. I can't really compare it to TLW, Hawkmoon, LHF, or Thorn, but I do like it in PVP much more than TDYK. It's got good stability, better reload speed, and a decent RoF, I was actually pretty surprised by how much I liked it.
Left and Right Gatekeeper should die at same-ish time [1 takes left because it's low HP keeper, 1 or 2 at right] so relics can be obtained around same time and you don't need defend middle anymore than you absolutely have to.
Taking left and right down at separate times like you suggest can put more strain on group because you need to keep defending middle which gets constantly bombarded by minotaurs and hobgoblins.
Can I get some PVP weapon advice?
Not feeling what I have but they aren't totally maxed out - been running hard light and vision of confluence, thinking of buying devil you know for it.
Off previous games, my preference would be pulse rifle if they didn't make me feel bad at Destiny.

It looks far, but you can make it, especially with the Titans jump and the warlocks glide, I'm assuming a hunter would need the triple jump, because the jumping is more snappy.

Yay, finally a piece of raid gear.

Uh, is Raid constantly giving loot now? Thought you did it this week already?
No one. It drops off Templar in hard mode.

Mr. Community
It didn't help that they tried to sell it by blatantly lying to the playerbase calling it a bug.
I've actually been secretly trying to kill my raid group by shooting my sparrow and sending it into them as they crowd around the first chest, but they grab and take off too quickly.
I will get it one of these days.
Like how you can kill the outside Gatekeeper from outside the room and then send an invisible hunter in to activate the first gate, thus despawning all of the asshole snipers in the beginning?
They need to revisit their NES, it's very easy as a Titan.

Ever since I've learned how to use lightning grenades, I notice more and more Titans using them in PvP. So apparently a bunch of people learned at the same time.
That being said, I don't care, as they're amazing + Armamentarium.

Does the MythoClast count towards the fusion rifle exotic bounty?
So from the first platform, which is directly in front of the starting point, the 2nd platform is to the right.
Jump to the 1st platform and then the 2nd. Do not hesitate during any of these jumps.
If you jump off at the edge of the 2nd platform, any class can make the jump.
It's really easy.
If I was home I would make a video.
I can't get over they called that a bug or that strike bosses being bullet sponges was also a bug.
That still hasn't been fixed.
