Hey, we need two more for hard raid. Does anyone want to join?
How's the sound quality of those headsets? I'm tempted to purchase one mostly because it's wireless. Is it pretty comfortable for 12 hour no-life marathons?
The Quick Start guide didn't mention it, iirc. So I didn't even look at it lol.
I think I might just not do it, might be reaching my limit of playing the same missions over and over and over and over and over and over again.
Just had some good fun running up and down stairs in The Steppes to kill 10 Hive Majors / Ultras. There's gotta be more interesting bounties in the works, this shit feels so pointless but gotta do it to level up.

Last night I got summoned into a hard raid Aetheon cheese charity run. Got the ship, and Aetheon's Epilogue. Since I have an Aetheon kill credit on hard mode, do I now not get rewards for the regular raid until reset?
It was really dumb...how about something new.
I really think that it's all random from a loot table based on a few requirements, Bungie probably doesn't bother picking the items for Xur at all.

I feel the same way right now. But I might have to bite the bullet so I can have a PVE (nightfall, weekly, and normal raid) and PVP (and hard mode raid) outfit.
The battery probably won't last you 12 hours, but I find the sound quality and comfort level to be quite good. Very well worth it.

I still like it, but I wish they had nerfed it to 5 ammo cap, instead of 3. Makes auto mode really short. But if you have a lot of adds in front of you (AKA woken the hive) it's really cool.
You only won't get Atheon loot.

You only won't get rewards on Atheon, the rest of the raid will give rewards.
I forgot I had a legendary GNU (whatever it is) Warlock helmet in the Vault!!! So that went on the warlock and (I'm a moron) I sharded the helmet. (probably should have saved it, but I need shards) Praxic Fire looks lovely on my alt female warlock. mwahaha
Thank you Dante - it looks sick!
NOW. Looks squarely at Hawkian. (with eagle eyes - hehe)
IF (hopes) I get another shot of vault-running with the crew, I'm thinking team first. If I'm going to be bubble-boy, I'd better bring the pain as well as stay alive. Going to pick up Armamentarium from Xur. Suros can wait. I think I'd rather have Red Death with my playstyle anyway.
Will be on tonight - anyone want to do the weekly heroic? Tiger strikes? I'm hitting level 3 for NM faction, picking up the legendary heavy (whatever it is) and getting more raid-ready.
I'm starting to enjoy wrapping myself in the grind.
What do you get if you run the raid again after having run it once that week? Anything?
Was Suros the dominant choice? I don't visit twitter. Also, it's not surprising - Bungie are trying to build a lot of good will lately. I think they sense the community turning against them.
Ah, can you charge it while using? Long cable?
I've only used them for 5 hours max and they're pretty comfortable. I wear glasses and they still fit just fine without any major problems. Sound can be a little bit low and there's no noise cancelling so expect to hear a fair bit of background stuff but the voice/chat quality is very good.
There are a lot better headsets out there but they are probably the best you'll find for <$100

The first time you do the mission(and no other times), you'll get a mission item
You turn that mission item in to the Cryptarch for a Strange Coin

So one of the crucible bounties is for 10 salvage zone captures. But there is no salvage game mode in crucible?
I never play crucible so pardon my ignorance, I'm just doing the bounties to get these exotic gauntlets levelled so I can get to 30. I've got all the shards and helium I need!

pocket infinity good for pvp?
Really? It's one if my favourites. Has a distinct halo feel to it.
Edge's review of this is fantastic.
To paraphrase - it's a game that gets simple things bafflingly wrong and is needlessly complicated but has gameplay which is amongst the very best FPSs and is simply impossible to put down.
Wonder if the other reviewers should've waited a bit longer too.

Bounty System is F'ed in the B
Salvage is a Mode that comes and goes, not regularly here
Uses the same charging cable as a PS4 controller so not very long but you can easily find longer cables fairly cheaply online.
Hit square/X when you're selecting the difficulty, not just at the map screen.
It's not explained very well.
Is activate it before turning in 5. I just did that and got a lot of XP on the Vex Mythoclast
That's what I was thinking, but I would like to know as well if there's a better way.
I have hundreds of hours logged and never knew that lol...

apparently bounty XP is not increased at all while telemitries are active. The only XP gain is from actual kills with the weapon.
That's what I was told on bungie.net.

Seriously? FFS Bungie. Keep fixing that cheese and ignoring bugs!

I've got a fate bringer and a vision of confluence, is the suros worth picking up? I'm torn between that and the void fangs.
According to Sony, the microphone does have noise canceling.

Sony said:
The cable that comes with it is fairly short. However, the charging point is a standard micro USB, so I've charged the headset while using it by using my phone charger outlet adapter + cable.

Sorry, can't help you there. Not much of a PVP guy. The charge time is a bit slow, but I think experienced FR players shouldn't have a problem.
Personally, I'd stick with VoC.

Go to the map, highlight the mission you want, hit the square button (X for xb1) then set the difficulty to easy. Start the mission and then immediately go back to orbit. Now start the mission again but this time choose the hard version. It should now be reset. Normally just hitting the "restart" button will work but if it bugs out and keeps putting you back in the same spot, just use the above method to fix it.
Hey, any luck on those No Backup Plans? RNGesus hooked me up with the glove engram. *fingers crossed* that he showed some mercy your way as well.
What??! It seemed like I got more. If that's true then the best way would probably be loot cave.

What's the best legendary fusion rifle for PVE and PVP?
Thanks guys, that should work. I'm pretty close to the TV anyhow because I'm blind without my glasses and I don't like to play with them on.
Really? Well that's a surprise as I'd not noticed it when using them. Must be very subtle. Thanks for the info.

Engram got me those =( I am a Warlock seeking Sunbreakers.
Cool, thanks.
And damn, field scout with the bonus heavy weapon ammo skills from the raid gear with Corrective Measure is so damn good. Holy shit, so much heavy ammo.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Is the void fangs worth it, or should I wait for the sunbro chest?
