Destiny: FIN


Gorf King

Recommended Posts

According to the website I'm part of the MUK clan. But it doesn't show in game like it does for some of you guys. Why is this and how do I change it?!

In other news, got my Warlock to level 20 and picked up some shards for my level 28 Titan to use along the way. Also picked up the Suros Regime before Xur left the tower - really like it, feels like a machine gun with loads more ammo and a quicker reload.

Think the Titan is my favourite character of the two but the Warlock has plenty of levelling up still to be done (if I can be arsed/find the time).

So yeah, quite a bit of time spent with Destiny this weekend really. I do find that after doing the Raid and the Nightall for the week the rest feels a bit like running daily chores, but its still a great game - more hours spent on this than anything I can remember in a long, long time.

I bought a Suros yesterday. Needs levelling, but it feels weak. I'm assuming it needs the bottom scope for the stability, as well as the range increase in the next tree? Its range will be pretty low then though, which is a bit worrying.

It's fucking easy, trust me. :)

Not that easy the points count from kills & not crucible control scores. 25 points for Titan/Hunter & 75 for Warlock.

This will take me a long time only got 1075 points after an hour :(

On the plus side I've being doing crucible bounties & when turning them in I got another exotic bounty. This time for the machine gun super good advice :)

If you're ever getting a raid group going on 360 I'm happy to come over and play there. I would guess Kryptonian would be too.

Okay! This is it then. I would officially like to recruit you both - what's your GT? Free any nights next week?

Funnily enough after my whiney post I managed to crawl into a group from DestinyLFG, but I don't imagine it's the same as doing it with forumites. I got a butt-ton of ascendant energies and a shader, but I've never been so happy to receive a shader as loot!

My GT is Kryptonian and my wife & kids are away Mon-Fri so any evening would be ok for me I guess :)

Nope, sorry, team Cerny here.

Oops, must be someone else then

Thanks Nate and df0 :). Although I feel I owe you both 8 of the 9 coins I received...

On another note. I was working through '5strikes without dying' this morning, so doing them on easy of course. I saw a purple engra, drop from a captain. Grabbed it, and it decoded into exotic sunbreakers (warlock). Even though I don't have a warlock class, when I do it will be nearly as levelled up as I!

Pleasure. It was fun. I've already had my coins from it, but always happy to help. I just enjoy playing the game.

Turned into a good night for me with a few strange coins from engrams, a legendary to dismantle from a strike and one from levelling the vanguard. I was able to level up my raid boots once, and I'm a shard away from doing it again. Tomorrow after I do the daily I'll be a gnats bollock away from 29 I reckon.

So next weeks nightfall will most likely be the Venus strike with Sekrion Nexus Mind as the boss. Found a cheese method that allows you to have someone hide to keep the strike going ala the Archon Priest strike. This person will not die, but can not dps the boss, but the other 2 can from up top on the ledge before the boss room. If either of these 2 die, just make the person who's hiding the fire team leader and then those two who died leave the strike and just re-join, and they'll be back up top again to continue damaging the boss.

Video showing the hide spot:

The only hard part of the strike is getting to the boss, but if your careful and use snipers it shouldn't be too tough. Think Solar damage will be the damage modifier for it, so Ice Breaker will be king for this, but a good solar machine gun/rocket launcher will be very nice for getting those pesky minotaurs down that spawn behind you when up on the ledge.

Think I've hit the wall with this after 60 hours. Nowhere really to go except the Raid, but that supposes you know 5 other people all available at the same time with a spare 2 hours. Not exactly well suited if you are 40+ years old with a wife / family / job to hold down.

Lack of matchmaking on the Raid is a serious flaw IMO. I understand Bungies chat about the need for comms and teamwork, but I'd rather they'd let us take our chances with randoms rather than close it off.

Anyway, what a 60 hours! One of the GOTY for me, a real PSO vibe.

It would be a nightmare with randoms. I'm sure there's enough of us happy to help you get through the VoG over a few nights.

Thanks! But you'd all need to be available from 10:30-12 as and when I'm about over the next few days.

I think my point is - even if it's not optimal with randoms, why close it off. Why not at least give people the choice? We did the first couple of stages of the Raid with you explaining it all to us, and that worked out OK.

The post above this - "We did the Raid, it took 4 hours". It's disappointing that the end game of this is structured in such an uncompromising and unfriendly way (if you don't have lots of spare time)

But that's about my only beef with it - hopefully they'll tweak things.

I hope they fix the buggier aspects of the raid! We should be able to get it done in under 2 hours with a couple of new people on the team.

Anyway, here's a couple of Public Event clips I've saved over the past week.

That once-troublesome Captain on the moon taking a beating:

Beefy Rocket Launcher + Dropships = Instadeath:
