Does it make any difference if I get an exotic chest piece vs. an exotic helm stat wise? Kind of feeling like taking the chance on the chest piece since I'd rather spend the coins on a sparrow upgrade.
Ah, good point, hadn't even thought of that.
Figs! Protect me, please!

Not really
You can potentially reach level 30 without doing the hard raid if you take an exotic helm since its a hard mode Atheon drop.

Really? I don't find it that much better than any other fusion rifle. I actually felt I killed many more people with the regular than with Pocket Infinity.
I stopped using the fast reload perk and switched to the minimal recoil one. It's easier to handle but still not great. Feels really nerfed in raids/nightfall too.
Is that true? I thought there were 2 sets of all gear, one for normal and one for hard. For instance, I think Cowl of Hezen Lords for Warlock's is gotten in normal, and Facade of Hezen Lords is from hard.

True that, they should be handled differently. I still miss my eight shots during raids and strikes.
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH!!!!
I feel your pain. Except its more painful since I don't even have voidfang.
Mine is still bare bones. Got only one or two upgrades so far. But i love this kind of gun.
AE is like a better doctor nope. I usually miss or don't hit the crit spot with the first few bullets but once i manage to tame the beast it's a crit fest. There's a stability upgrade ahead and glass half full. Can't wait.
Some people can't stand low impact high rof weapons. If that's your case i don't think you will enjoy it.

Does armor with "increases amount of heavy ammo you can hold" impact how much ammo you get from the heavy ammo crates in PvP?

I feel for you sir. I too have been denied the incandescence....until this morning. Woke up with my savings of 78 motes and 53 coins, ran to find Xur before work. Saw he was selling........a helmet I already had, but.....low and behold, body engrams! So knowing it was my time as I had been patient with RNG, i purchased 3. First one - Alpha Lupi chest I already had for my Titan, second.... PRAISE THAT SUN! I was elated with joy, I don't even remember what the third one decoded into because honestly who cares.
Afterwards i put on the sweet sweet robes and began praising. Best of luck to you in the future!

I'll be keeping one lava covered eye on you, Todd.
Look at this guy living the dream. Its like he is part of the 1%
How well can you see out of that eye with lava over it? Plus it should have ate your thoughts of protecting namikaze.
Absolutely.

With normal boost Xur sparrow is faster and it has air brakes.
Raid sparrow is faster when doing its 'super boost' and it has ten more durability plus a wicked looking trail.
Comparisons on overall speed have been talked about on reddit but it's in conclusive. Some people say Xur sparrow is faster from A to B while others say raid one is faster.
I need 3 trophies for platinum
I need to max out Titan, Warlock, legendary weapon, and raid without dying. I haven't found a legendary yet that I am truly in love with for the max treatment.
True that, they should be handled differently. I still miss my eight shots during raids and strikes.
Maybe they'll give us 5 lol.
Awoken the hive IMO.

lol. I noticed this, too. I think it's Bungie's way of saying, "Holy shit, idiot! Do you really understand what you are doing?!!"
#FirstDestiny #blessedbyRNGesus problems....
That leaked list for the expansion is fairly underwhelming, three story missions and two strikes is an hour or two's play at most. Hopefully they do something interesting with the strikes at least. The raid, assuming you get a group for it (hopefully they introduce matchmaking by that point), is another four or five hours.
In general, any "increase amount of ammo you can hold" abilities only just increase the max ammo you can carry for that weapon, I don't think it would affect the amount of ammo picked up.
It's all 'bout the grind for the new loot.

Well enough.
I already got my money's worth for 90 dollars. So the expansions will definitely be worth it. A new raid should be fantastic - plus new gear, level cap increase and secrets. It'll be cool. Also, we don't know if they're making the strikes more interesting or not.

I'm a Sunbro with Praxic and don't even use it because I already upgraded the Sunbreakers.
This is why we need a trade system.

And should be treated that fucking way.
Is that confirmed? I haven't looked at the DLC leaked stuff.

Just cleared my first raid. Hell yeah!
My only rewards were energy and Chatterwhite
Ok, I guess.
There's always next week I guess..

I haven't looked either, but it's super logical for them to increase the level cap with the new gear. I am expecting 2 hard levels and 3 light levels.

I've been under the impression that Heavy ammo crates give you a percentage of what you can carry total.
For instance, by default I can carry 72 bullets for my "The Swarm" machine gun. When I pick up a Heavy ammo crate, I get 36 bullets. Whats funny is that "The Swarm" only has a clip size of 35. So I often have 1 or 2 bullets that go to waste because it isn't worth reloading.
so if my new total ammo size is 108 (50% increase), will I then start picking up 54 bullets?

So if there's a level cap increase will they atleast have the sense to start the raid legendaries at a higher light level? Or will you go back to being 26/27 again? Place your bets.
I don't think that's going to be the case though, it's probably just an alternate set of legendaries. It makes sense the game would be less annoying if you had 2/3 locations to get possible raid gear from in a week, it also fits with the this content was scissored out to make expansion packs conspiracy theory.

I suppose thats why I find it so underwhelming, burnt out on the grind at the moment so "Hey new grind!" isnt a strong selling point
To be honest I found the current raid underwhelming, the mechanics were a nice departure from the strikes but thats like saying plain bread is a nice departure from eating dirt.
I wonder how much of this expansion was already done when the game launched, i.e. how realistic is it to expect this to address complaints like repetitive strikes, minimalistic story content, etc. ?

I see why Todd wants it so badly now.

Platinum Trophy: Learned to Shit While Upright Again.
Regular ass chest in the Steppes on Earth, I was making my way to The Divide for Fallen Devilwalker Public Time Event
Saw it wedged in the railing where the pipes are, popped it and that's what I got lol
I forgot to capture the one where it gave me +183 Glimmer +Blue engram +Ascendant Shard + 11 Helium
sweeeet was worried he'd have a gauntlet engram and I'm severely low on motes this week but no problem there, Truth fills the missing heavy weapons Void in my arsenal (hope I get to hit sepiks again with thing), and light beyond nemesis is perfect for a second PvE-centric (especially Nightfall)/path-to-30 build on my warlock to complement Praxic Fire... have enough coins with 1 to spare!
thank you based xur :>
Off to Orlando for the weekend now guys. Catch y'all later :}

Have you played MMOs before? I found the raid to be a lot of fun with a group of friends. Also, doesn't hurt that the Vex are always enjoyable to kill.

Makes sense, which is why I am not betting on it. No content in the leak is over 28.

I'm a Sunbro, and I didn't even know about that chest armor. Forgive me Sunbros, for I have sinned.

I understand completely.
Yes, since Meridian 59 in fact, its familiarity with other raids and their mechanics that makes the Vault of Glass feel so barebones and basic.
Over on /vg/, where the leak originated I believe, there were further details, Light caps supposed to be raised to 32, new raid normal mode is 28 and hard mode is 32.
