yup, my 214 is better than my 240

Unfortunately. It's all rng and there's way too high a chance for absolutely useless rolls on 240 pieces. 214 as well.
Honestly trying to figure out if it's even worth grinding for.

Hard:
214 random set (weekly reward)
191 random set (boss drop)
182 random HE (boss drop, most likely a mod)
Cosmetic cap or scarf
HE mats
Challenging:
240 random set (weekly reward)
214 random set (boss drop)
182 random HE (boss drop, most likely a mod)
204 Named HE - Warlord Assualt rifle (not guaranteed drop)
Cosmetic jacket
HE mats

Yes or no on the new lighting feature? Playing on Xbox One, what is everyone choosing?

Got a god roll H.E. M44 with Brutal, Bleed, Destructive. The catch is that its 163 so it has a couple grand less damage.
I dont have the heart to get rid of it...
Also...snow in your character select screen

Some areas can get a bit too dark so you might have to mess with brightness a bit, but there is definitely a performance boost.

FYI: If you don't get 204 weapons you will need a full load out of 240 set pieces in order to make the requirement for the next Incursion. (especially since there isn't a 204 sidearm readily available)
204 weap + 214 gear = 208gs
182 weap + 240 gear = 220gs
204 weap + 240 gear = 225gs
Guaranteed that you will need to do CM Incursion to get at least five 240 set pieces.

No Balanced, it's a weapon part.

The lighting option is awesome, probably my favorite change with 1.1. It only highlights the fact that there really needs to be a weapon mod that has a flash light attachment. With the nights properly dark now, being able to shoulder your weapon and have it shine a flashlight, would be amazing.

Agreed 200%
May I ask how much scavenging you have?

It definitely should be forced, but they won't do that haha. It certainly is quite enjoyable though.

This is true. Stability is a non-issue because of the slow fire rate.
All that's needed is maxed single shot damage. Getting that through headshot damage, crit chance/damage, or whatever.
yea i know c4 is explosive damage but they can also have it so that c4 doesn't actually cause the damage. It should take 4 c4s to kill APC, so when i plant a c4 and it explodes, it should count as a hit and subtract 1/4 of health without actually posting damage numbers. Sorry if this makes no sense. Im trying to come up with a better way to explain it.

Balanced is crucial for the M1A.
I don't think it's that necessary for M44, since the bolt-action part usually gives you the time to reach max accuracy.
Had one of those great moments the other day where you get revenge for the rogue duo that just killed you by downing them both with a single explosive round + M44. From there, I just needed to notch the next bullet to finish the deed.
I got a full bag of HEs for my troubles. Of course, that just equates to 9 HE materials...

when they design a crappy boss fight, I guess once you completed it the real way one time, nobody feels like doing that shit again.

Could I get a rundown of the exploit? Or a link to the post about it?
I missed it and haven't found it.

Eh, a competent team should be able to clear it and have some fun in less time. The intended way sounds much more appealing to me.
It's honestly very satisfying to complete the challenge mode...the first time around.

Jesus, you don't even need a fresh host for the Incursion to get the 240 drop and 40 PxC. You just have three people alt-F4 or force close the application right as the loot drops. Once they reconnect to the person who stayed behind, they all get 240 drop and PxC. Fucking hell. I really hope this is still live tonight. I have zero shame in farming this with my squad as we missed out on all the other ones and will likely never do Incursion on CM.

Trying to platinum. Is there anywhere that keeps track where you have extracted from. I'm sure I extracted from all the points but I am not getting the trophy. This is the only one I need to finish.
Gotta say Massive have royally f***** up with the incursion glitch. There's a post near the top of Reddit explaining how to do it in 30 minutes on challenging and keep both rewards AND drops.
They need to act soon otherwise the disparity between exploiters and casuals will get even bigger. How they failed to test this properly is beyond me; you're supposed to be able to get only one 240 GS item per week, yet this makes it possible to get two per hour.
It also hands yet another advantage to committed, organised groups who already have the upper-hand in the DZ. I'm a big fan of this game but this is taking the p***.

How would people feel about an implementation of something like the Paragon levels in Diablo 3?
For those that don't know what it is, it's essentially a new set of levels that your XP goes into after you've reached level cap. Each level gives points that can be put into places that give very small incremental upgrades to your existing stats that can help min/maxing but don't cause utter imbalance.
It could help with people trying to shortcut the system all the time. Clearing waves would have a benefit.
Thanks. I'll see what's up with it.

Have you done extracted at the 2nd zone in DZ05? It's on the west side and is a parking garage structure.
That was the last one I needed.
Might just want to hold back investing too much time on that exploit.

This is a good idea, either that or it gives you a small amount of DZxp not as much as in the DZ of course but say 50% or something.
Unfortunately, no. Your best bet is to check them off 1 by 1 as you extract from them.
Sent you a PM, video inside.

Yup. Inigo from Streamerhouse been running it consecutively for about 20-30 min each run. I haven't ran it yet myself, but by what im seeing, once you have a strat down its pretty easy. Assuming you dont have potato aim, of course lol

Lol. No way a team this incompetent can crack down on the players yet. The exploits are far too wide spread. They need to crack down on their QA team, not the players.
haha true, it's just one big room
Need advice on some recalibration options:
Not much of a shotgun player, was thinking about switching to crit chance or smg dmg with this one.
Another tricky one, the reduced cooldown for signature skill is nice but might also replace it with some additional armor?
Pistol dammage is meh, reroll armor or gear slot?

They need to make pistols more powerful in this game. I want a reason to go to my sidearm other than running out of ammo which never really happens.
Destiny is magical right now. It has drops that are upgrades!

A lot of this is going to depend on your current stats.
How close are you to armor mitigation cap, 65%? If you're close enough to be able to roll a mod slot that you can place in a Stat + armor gear mod in, then slots will be the clear choice.
If you're pretty far off, I say go for + armor on both of them.
As for the shotgun dmg one, you can't go wrong with either SMG or Crit Chance. If you roll with Pulse, you should probably go for SMG damage over Crit Chance, but it, too, is going to depend on your current stats.
If you want to blast the APC with a full group then yes. You can also do it solo, if you got the time, patience and necessary electronics to spam dat sticky skill continuously to slowly chip away the APC armor and HP... might take you around two hours though : D

For a loot based game with multiple layers of RNG, that is ridiculous. They need to go back and think about their decisions in the first place. The 240 item you can get each week can be the same holster for consecutive 4 weeks. Bad design is bad design.
They need to encourage players to play activities more and grind less. The opposite is happening and they don't know how to deal with it.
Nah, this is on the same grounds as BK, hornet, etc...
Nobody got banned from Destiny for cheesing raid bosses or loot farming.
Cheesing =/= cheating.
Only things they can ban or suspend players for are lagswitching, using mods (on PC) and actual cheating like god mode, etc.
Yup, their priority should be fixing accounts of players that have characters wiped or locked for weeks. A game so riddled with bugs, glitches and broken mechanics, no way can they ban players for that.
