The only exotic that I have been using is gjalla and icebreaker... I only pull the other ones out to turn in bounties...
Yeah that's gonna be wrong. It shows literally every weapon with an element sold in the tower to have void damage -_- I'd love it if someone could check, but I'm betting it's solar, and the Crucible 77 Wizard Void, as always.
I'd really like it if the tower vendor inventories don't change, but just get more options added to them over time. I very much enjoy being able to save up for/recommend specific things to people based on knowing their wares.
Sign me up. My Defender is 29 and I have Epilogue and Ice Breaker at 300 attack. My Rocket Launchers are good (Hezen Vengeance and Truth) but not yet upgraded. I think I'll be able to hold my own
or at least I hope so. Double grenades on my Titan are a godsend. Void Magnetic grenades really sting the Praetorians. I would be happy to get Gauntlets or Chest. Either would let me teach level 30 since I'll replace the other with an Exotic.
It's still very useful for farming simply because it increases your movement speed which increases your mats/whatever per hour

I thought that only worked if you already leveled up one of the same class passed 15? You mean I could have started out as Sunsinger all this time when I created my Warlock?! FUCK!!!

The only way I could get it to work was to press square, then start the mission on default difficulty, confirm that you will erase your checkpoint, load into the game, then back out to orbit and start the game on the difficulty that you want.
It's a stupid process. :/
Ideally the elements would rotate on a weekly basis. I have zero good Arc secondaries, it made me feel week with this week's burn.
Just joking, I bought the physical copy and there's no manual. It was a jab at how a lot of stuff in the game isn't obvious/documented anywhere by Bungie.
I own LE and I ask, what manual?
Ahh, I prefer use the Mythoclast for the +2 agility while farming because it always makes me laugh when it takes four shots to drop a dreg. Without a little laugh here and there the spirit bloom circles can make a man go crazy.

Mythoclast is really underwhelming right now. Vision of Confluence does more damage and you don't burn through your bullets as quick. Suros Regime is better than Mythoclast too in my opinion. So yeah, not really using mine till the rebuff.

What if it's Atheon in a giant tank?

Think they fixed it in regards to mats, at least for me it seems so. It will show the one mat plus energy need to upgrade then when you get to the final upgrades it will just show energy needed.
It also showed spinmetal all the time for me but now it shows the proper mat.

I own the first two and never really use them. Maybe I should?
hmm. I'd be okay with that as long as it were a continuous static rotation and there wasn't a chance of repeat/element droughts throughout the vendors. as it stands I very much like that somebody can ask where they can get a good [x] weapon and I can rattle off the options available in the tower
yes. well. if the question here is whether to choose the mida multi-tool or the vex mythclast that does change my reasoning a bit.
9PM, I am there! Let's kick the crap out of the weekly and nightfall!
I'll be online Add v1br4t1ons on psn leveling up my alt gear level 28/9 with fully upgraded plan c and rocket launcher.
That rebuff will be glorious. I am theorizing that they will make it stronger than it was before for PVE.
Actually you might still be right about the MIDA for farming runs. It has a +2 agility perk, BUT the weapon perk says it "increases movement speed and fires on a hair-trigger pull" or something like that, so that leads me to believe if you run the +2 agility perk on it you should still get extra movement speed from the weapon perk itself. Any way to confirm?
Oh god please! My maxed out Mytho is ready!
What if it's a wizard with a sword
That flies around and swats us.
Did they ever say Crota is a he? i can't remember. but if Crota is a he then he is not a wizard as wizards are females.
That would make me a very happy Titan. Since PvP damage doesn't look at weapon damage at all, if they changed the weapon damage value above 300 it should be stronger in PvE and still perform the same in PvP, no?
Suros is noticeably stronger PvP choice than Vex atm, that is for sure. Still I don't think Vex is underwhelming even if it's not top dog in PvP food chain anymore. 51 bullet mag with ~110 in reserve is plenty ammo to burn through when considering how few bullets it takes to kill a man with it.
If you only play with "top dog" weaponry then you will want use Suros.
If I were designing Destiny, when the expansion hits, I'd add new VoG level weapons and armor to all the factions....or at least Vanguard and Crucible. Make them require Rank 6 or 7 or 8 or whatever is appropriate based on the data they have us all at. Leave the old weapons at the lower ranks.
Purely subjective but I feel faster with MIDA. I kind of feel the Mythoclast is seen as a special and thus "heavier" (like when you run with a sniper) but it might just be in my head.
What do you use then, say in a hard raid?
I haven't upgraded my multi-tool yet (

Shadow Price, Grim Citizen, and Vanquisher are all pretty similar. IIRC, SP has better stability, GC has better range, and VQ has a better rate of fire. Mostly it comes down to the perks. My GCIII has Rangefinder + Field Scout + Super fast empty clip reload(along with fast reload from my gauntlets). It was an OG loot cave drop and no weapon I've come across has managed to supplant its reign yet. It's pretty much a gun without weakness.

Whole squad is geared up pretty good then. Ill be using TDYK Fully upgraded. I also have praedyths revenge fully upgraded. atheons epilogue close to full and I have all upgrades for gjallahorn except the last and i think i only need some relic iron to close that at 300. I got a raid helm earlier this week by helping a buddy with Atheon, so as soon as I get shards i'll be 30.
Mines will be maxed once the patch hits. Relic Iron was put to better use making me a 30 lol.
I think they will equalize the Suros and Vex in PVP by balancing it a little more. I knew the Suros would be king as soon as the nerf for Vex was announced. And yes, once they raise it above 300 it will be stronger in PVE without being broken in PVP.
No
Didn't they straight out say in, was it, in Weekly that they will increase Vexs damage over 300 along with other buffs to it. I guess 330-340 will be new max damage for Vex post-buff once it comes, along with tad more power for PvP so it's neck to neck with Suros.

God I hope so. I don't give a fuck about PvP. I hate that stats transfer. Auto rifles became less good in PvE now too, you definitely notice the difference. Scout rifles definitely are the go to weapon right now, especially Vision of Confluence.
Yes you should. Icebreaker's ammo regen is amazing for the raid and nightfall mission's. Also Gjallarhorn is probably the single most damaging weapon in the game. Currently levelling mine, need dem Wolfpack rounds.
I like it. endorsed. primaries with element damage that you don't have to rely on RNG for? hawkian screech of approval
They all but specified that this is exactly what they're doing:

They're the two most useful weapons for hard raid haha
Get a decent comp with 3-4 maxed horns and everyone w an ice breaker and hard mode becomes pretty trivial
That's the problem with the vex rebuff. They're going to have to make it so insane that it's more useful than gjallar for gatekeepers/atheon and more useful than icebreaker for templar? I doubt it
If you think Invective is bad you don't want to know what Found Verdict does in PvP with range upgrades.
even more OP
I see, thanks. I should try it at least once I suppose, just need to find a group.

Sorry, was talking PvE mostly, don't really play much PvP to discuss the power status quo of the Mythoclast there. A nerf there definitely was an order (shame I didn't get mine earlier to exploit it), but it just ruined the gun in PvE I feel like. I'd rather use my exotic slot for Icebreaker, Suros or Gjallarhorn now.

My very first Raid we only had one guy who did the maze and it took like 2 hours to get through lol
