What is this about new blue gear doing the quests?

First stage of the new quests for the old sub-classes grants a class item with 180 defense. This is higher than any of the legendary items from Y1 and afaik the max you get/equip get until TTK launches next week.

The final stage gets you a lvl 40 class item with 220 defense.

Thorn still rules the crucible.

 

[Dalek]

Incredibly. Why is the voice so high pitched? I actually prefer dinklebot, never thought that would be the case.

Who's High Pitch?

 

[ViciousDS]

Oh fuck, I don't remember where any gold chests are past earth lol

Here's a link for back to back comparison of Nolanybot and Dinklebot:

http://www.polygon.com/2015/9/8/9279755/destiny-peter-dinklage-nolan-north-comparison



It's mostly the script. But I think we are all used to Dinklebot. Sucks that he got replaced. See link above for comparisons

I guess I'm the odd guy out here. Nolan is SO much better IMO. He sounds exactly how I'd imagine a stuffy, tech-obsessed, C3PO-type character to sound. And there's actual acting in there instead of flat delivery.

So which Strike am I supposed to do to be able to kill 3 Majors for the Bladedancer quest? Unless I have to kill 3 Majors in a row with a single Arc Blade, I swear I did this in Undying Mind, but it didn't count.

 

[OneUh8]

I'm trying to tell myself this too. $20 whole dollars and possibly tax. I know when it becomes available for us next week, a lot of people that are on the fence is going to fall over

Hehe. I just bought a $20 PSN card from Best Buy because I could not resist...

 

[GiantBombGamer]

Went through the two expansions for the first time today...stuck on a mission for the first time in all of Destiny...shooting these glowing cubes before they kill me, guessing I'm going to need more than just myself for this one.

 

[SnakeEyes]

2.0 thread is up. Will use this for the next week and post the expansion thread separately, unless it's active enough and i'll just update the original post.

That's a good looking thread there dude, great work

I think those majors are bugged. I just did the weekly heroic again to finish that quest.

 

[figadapaura]

The new "we've woken the Hive" sounds terrible hahahaha

miss u little light

 

[Anastasis]

Any consensus forming on what to do before TTK drops now that 2.0 is here? Are there any events like before TDB or HoW that we can farm for stuff as a bit of a head start?

Who's High Pitch?

Thorn still ruins the crucible.

Fixed that for you.

Why can't bungie see it?

At least if you mean at the middle section on the stairs with all the Precursor and Descendant minotaurs, they don't count for anything like they should.

Reminds me a lot of 343 Guilty Spark now.

 

[Mutanthands]

So, if we want to grind rep, there's no longer a way to avoid earning Vanguard rep, correct? If you pledge to a faction, you get both. Problematic for my Warlock, since I edged his Vanguard reputation a few days ago.

"DOS was more complocated"

Just does not sound the same anymore :/

4 gigs in an hour four more hours to go

 

[ocean]

Poshy is on now about to test BD nerf

"Everyone saying Bkadedancer sucks dick, I'm gonna try it out now. Not gonna challenge people just play and see the changes"

Interesting

Conclusion from one of the best, if not he best, Bladedancers out there after a few matches:

"Bladedancer is destroyed, this is so bad ayy"

Meta changes are a lovely Time so much stuff to learn.

 

[Karl2177]

This thing is going at a rate of ~3GB per hour. Hopefully I'll get to play by 9:00PM tonight.

 

[Twilight Gap]

Lovely job.

thanks but it ain't done D:

most of the stuff there is temporary.

At the rate mine is going, Destiny 3 will be out before I can play.

 

[freefirefreefall]

Is there anything new to buy yet?

 

[darthbob]

I bust my ass at work all day just for PSN to give me the finger.

Shit didn't even download in rest mode smh

 

[Error]

so bungie 'nerfs' blink but then introduces an exotic for warlocks that reduces blink time and increases distance?

wtf?

whats with warlocks getting ridiculously op exotic gear?

 

[Definity]

Anyone had a chance to try out the NL Shadow scout w/ full auto yet in the crucible?

 

[Midshipman]

I just finished the bounty for 10k experience without dying by playing crucible (I died a lot).

Actually sounded better

 

[Shito]

What is this "little light" emblem Eva is selling?
Never seen it before, and it is so damn cute...

 

[Namikaze1]

For those who missed it earlier:

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Big nerfs to both The Last Word and shotguns really blows. I haven't actually tried it yet but I used the shit out of both. 45% isn't a typo? That's crazy. Time to find some new shit so they can nerf that too I guess.

 

[todd360]

Heart of the Praxic Fire with The Nowhere shader is sexy, just putting that out there.

👍

 

[freefirefreefall]

For those who missed it:

Shit I forgot to send you mine =..|

 

[NeoRausch]

So ummm....
How do I get better gear/upgrade my existing gear?

I feel like I've missed something.

 

[Daemul]

Shotguns still running rampant, nothing has fucking changed. FML.

 

[deadduck]

Personally struggled a bit with my usual TLW, got on better with Hawkmoon this time.

Grenades and Horseshoes got a large prox det nerf (good), shotguns seem unchanged.


Bed time.

 

[Frenden]

Poshy just said Thorn and Hardlight feel like the best guns.

 

[Zocano]

For those who missed it earlier:

rip guess I didn't see this in time

that's what I get for playing Witcher 3 nonstop

 

[TheWorthyEdge]

Assault rifles. How are they?

 

[igordennis]

Fixed that for you.

Why can't bungie see it?

Thorn should straight up be deleted from the game.

'Tis a brave new world ocean.

I reaaaally wonder how trials will be when it comes back.

 

[Zocano]

Shotguns still running rampant, nothing has fucking changed. FML.

Unless they nerf the shit out of shotgun range or player speed, there will be nothing to stop shotguns.

And Hand cannons follow a similar principle (too strong and too accurate at range)

Warlocks look ridiculous OP in this expansion and Hunters are taking Titan's place.

 

[Hawkian]

Well, it looks great to me!

For those who missed it earlier:

ok to include in new OT?

Sure.

It's why I made the smaller sized one. I didn't know who to send it to: you or Drizzay.
