Destiny |OTForever29| The Season Finale

Thanks guys! I've tried jumping into the fray when I see someone attacking the wolves, and I've even gotten the subsequent reward for participating. It was mostly when I'm alone and try to initiate.

Basically, I'm just a minor annoyance to these guys. I'm pretty much a fly.

Thanks again.

This is probably a stupid question, but in a previous post I mentioned that I started playing again. I'm currently a level 17. My question is in regards to the prowling wolves. I can't seem to do any significant damage to them. Anytime I attack, I see that they're immune or that they are resistant.

What's the issue here? Is it simply that my level is too low to phase these guys?

exactly that. house of wolves content is geared for level 30-34, iirc.
edit: and no, not a stupid question. keep asking away! :D

Yes. If you're one level below an enemy, you're doing 30% less damage. Two levels below an enemy, 60% less damage. If your level is even lower, you can't damage them at all.

You need to be within 3 levels of your enemy or you do basically no damage.
Most of the wolves are level 28, you are 11 levels under the recommended light level to deal full damage.
If you see question marks where the level should be, just run away.

What they said, but I'm pretty sure you CAN tag along while other people actually damage/kill them, though, and get the chest, as long as you shoot at and hit the Wolves. I'm pretty sure I rode some coattails when I was leveling my hunter, but it's possible I've made this up.

Edit: aaaaand beaten by the original question-asker.

When in a fireteam (not as leader) during a patrol session, and you leave the fireteam, do you simply go to orbit or are you left in the patrol area, just no longer linked in the fireteam? You may see where I am going with this, but I'm wondering how to get more than 3 people that you know together in an area (other than a Raid of course).
9 DGAFfers in the Court at once!

I wonder if "sweaty" instancing might work. Load patrol instances (or cross into the region of the patrol the public event thing is) at the same time until you load the same instance. Could probably stack the deck by setting up fireteams with leaders that are close to each other geographically.
 
Target & BigW are great for launch games. I picked up MGS5 for $69 from jbhifi by price matching to target. So wouldn't be surprised if legendary physical edition is $69 at launch as well. Pretty crazy we'll be able to pick up legendary for the same price as the stand alone TTK digital edition here in Aus.

Excited, just need to some how get a lot more hours to play games to finish up MGS and get into TTK, my wife is going to love me lol.

Yup, same. I either buy digital from US PSN or local if Target et al are doing deals.

I missed the stream. Did they actually show off the sword this time? I mean like really show it not just dancing around it?

Yup. Each player had a sword with a different element, and lacy had an exotic solar sword aka gjallar-sword.

With TTK you can actually be a sword-wielding ninja now :p

Recommended level for prowling wolves is level 30.

In preparation for TTK is anyone around to help a lowly 32 Titan through Skolas PoE so that he can get to 34 before the week is up (and complete the Triumphs?)

Wait, didn't you get to 33 yesterday with the helmet from poe armor core, crota gloves/boots? Also you only have a few days left to experience the might of the fatebringer, so level it up asap.
 
3615 grimoire get. Max sidearm kills done. Just rank 3 vip and public events then all pve stuff is done.

Rank 3 skirmish and warlock kills are the easy pvp I need. Rank 2 and 3 for salvage and rumble are the painful ones
 
Hahaha I never forget about friends!! You know there's not much to do these days in Destiny. I do 3x Nightfalls, then a few tickets of Trials here and there, mostly trying to help people get 5+ wins. I'm going to try to help a Gaffer this weekend (on PS4), always up for playing!

EDIT: Also, I finally beat another game. My first game beat since Bloodborne like 4 months ago hahaha. Bastion! Great 6-7 hour little game.

If I was available on the 15th, I'd definitely run through TTK with you and Javi again. I'm pretty sad that I won't be able to, still.

Lol no worries xplicit, it was never a jab at you. Colonel and I have had this same back and forth since he started playing on xbox. You just got caught in the crossfire :D

Sidenote: Not looking forward to the install of Destiny into my New PS4 on the 15th, but I can't wait to unbox it. OMG sooo excited.

Edit: Of course my post lands right underneath that turncoat.

Skolas is very easy with or without a gjally message the OP of this thread. He does noob runs.

I was just thinking wait this is the guy I beat last night no problem with randos speaking Spanish. Level 30, but I imagine if I was fully leveled it wouldn't be too tough on max difficulty.
 
I'm at home now. Anybody around that can help a first timer get through Skolas around 8 or 9 EST? I'm level 34 and have all of the appropriate weapons maxed out, have been all the way up to getting Skolas down to die to the mines afterwards.

So the loot for non-Summoner's are just a couple engrams? I have to watch it again, I think the Bungie dev said reputation as well, but I don't know if that meant your faction reputation or something else.

Is it bad if I assume the
rune drop rate will be too low at launch? ;)
 
Xbox One GAF please mark me down as a fellow friend who would like to whip through TTK story with a group, and do it as fast as possible.

hahaha yea, there have been plenty for both of us since we started XBox but it's all fun and games
until I stream on Xbox and Xbox Twitch doesn't relay Mic Communication FTL

It was almost a disaster. Hopefully yours went well! Also thanks for the well wishes everyone.

Sorry to hear that but glad it wasn't a disaster. I ended up taking a different route when i came into my appointment with the specialists. They were going to numb me and perform and I asked how long the healing time is and they said 14 days. I told them I'm on vacation in 10 days and so they gave me acids and medicine and whatnot to help with it in the meantime. So hopefully it doesn't get worse :\

to entice streamers to actually want to come and demo the content.
Goth apparently was getting tipped in large amts after Deej's announcement.

It was kinda funny, but it got to the point where it felt kinda icky. He looked somewhere between amazed and ashamed.
 
I have 6 days to get through Skolas. I've never attempted PoE35 and my Gally is not leveled up to wolfpack rounds yet. Anyone willing to work with a Skolas noob? PSN: SoullessSHOES

Try to find a group closer to launch, going in blind with other players will be an even better experience.

I will try that for sure. I guess it depends in how long it will take me to get to the level to play the raid.

And man, I still have Skolas left. I don't think I'll ever do it at this point. Oh well.

It's pretty rough, I haven't been able to get through it yet. We got very close with all the mines down but things went bad...and then people are just done with trying.

Hopefully there will be some folks around to help this last weekend before the timer is up.
