Destiny: FIN

[metallicfrodo]

That nightfall is a bitch. Solar is the one burn I don't have armour for. However, I do have a tasty solar fusion rifle (though I can change the burn on it) and of course my solar sword.

None of your 4 Crest of Alpha Lupi had solar then? That is really unlucky!

[Oz]

I promise chaps that element protection on gear is bollocks at the mo. Kinda like extra ammo for your primary.

[Mr Ben]

I was all "cool I got nightfalls covered" when I got all 3 of the burn type protection on armour, but then nightfall came along and there was no burn. I'll give it a try on the nightfall now that there's a burn though.

Is it worth coming into destiny at this point in its life? I don't have much gaming time but like to stick with one game at a time and this sounds right up my street.

[Soi]

Yes, now is a great time to get into the game. The Taken King was effectively a big gear reset, and by starting now you'll only be a couple of weeks play behind people and progress is fast.

[legaldinho]

The exotic will be the same flavour as your legendary. Its character locked, and Shaxx knows which one he gave you.

I may have screwed my titan because, wielding the hunter's legendary sword, he got the quest to get kills from shaxx. But he also still has the hadium flakes quest.

Do you like fps? Do you like RPGs? Like mass effect or inventory heavy games. Do you like borderlands or diablo? If the answer to two of these questions is yes, then get it.

I never got on with borderlands or Diablo, but I love a good fps and love RPGs. This game has me by the proverbials.

I love extra auto-rifle ammo. I spray it around like champagne! There is no better feeling than reloading three times to take down a single Dreg knowing you still have plenty of ammo left for the other one

[T Pot]

Quick question. I've not got the questline for the exotic sword, I have to get my legendary up to 180 first dont I?

Part of the quest line, do you have to complete the TTK Raid?

[Scruff]

280 and no. But I will say don't try and do a solar sword with a Hunter as it's a massive ball ache. In fact, I'd imagine they all are ball aches on the Hunter. You have to kill roughly 500 mobs as part of the questline with elemental abilities/grenades/supers and it's hard work on anything other than a solar Titan or Stormcaller Warlock.

Hip-fire FTW!

Am I being blind - how to I get to Mercury?

[BitterToad]

Grabbed TTK today after deciding to wait until January. I've got a level 34 Warlock and have gone back to understanding NOTHING.

So, uh... what's changed exactly?

[Uncle Mike]

Am I being blind - how to I get to Mercury?

It's not a real destination. You certainly can't patrol it, for example. There's a PvP map on Mercury, and you get to go there once for the Titan Sunbreaker quest. Also, it's a location you'll see if you win at Trials of Osiris.

[Guest]

I want to do the sun breaker quest but can't spot how to activate it?

[Lyrical Donut]

Or maybe a team or friend leaderboard for all raids to give people a reason to replay old raids as well. Campaign scoring (available in Halo 3 in 2007) is really missing from this game.

Crota gives you Eris rep, not sure about VoG.

[Oz]

Thanks lyrical didn't know.

Ps4 update tomorrow.

Psn will be on fire.

[Mr Ben]

Mayhem Clash is back! and is the weekly! \o/

Edit: Defender Titan with Suppression grenades time

[GODZOOKI]

I love your posts in here Godzooki, they are always so humble

Ha! Honestly the mechanics are insanely simple once understood, overwhelming at first but once cracked it's genuinely easy.

Big problem raiding is if you don't have a regular team. The LFG posts ATM are full of unrealistic requirements (must be 300+ & have black spindle etc) & make finding a team difficult. Truth is it can be done with 6 290's fairly easily providing they have a powerful sniper.

Happy to help people if on XB1 if anyone is stuck.

[Curtis]

Ha, OK, I got all confused there too. Thought Curtis meant that swords were not transferable at all. Ignore me, been a long day.

Swords are ace!!

You can pass & share swords to your hearts content, you just can't transfer a sword and ask Shaxx to forge that colour/element Exotic, because he 'remembers' which one he gave each character at the Legendary stage.

Clear as mud? Lol.

I meant 280 sorry.

I'm a hunter too, I'll be going for arc as I have the arc one now.

Appears as a quest line given by Zavalla - not sure what triggers it possibly completing the fist mission of the TTK story - thats when Cayde offered me the Hunter Void one anyway

Talking Point 1 - Fuck This Nightfall

See above. Jesus fuck, what a shitty mission. Solar all over the place, the boss fires solar, adds fire solar and I don't even have a decent sniper rifle to help. Did it with LeChuck/Dave, and Siri/Marmite (sans mic). Not a pleasant experience. The hobgoblins just one shot you, insane. After all that, I got one tier 3 Oryx rune. Okay, I guess?

Talking Point 2 - Worth doing that Last Word bounty?

Oh mama, this gun. This fucking gun. I am in love. I think it was Oz who was using it, and so I had a look at the stats. Screw them, this thing feels better than Lord of Wolves and I love that gun.

It is broke, the roadborn perk (faster reload, more range and precision damage for a few seconds) procs with any gun when Chaperone is equipped. I don't think it gives the bonuses on any other gun, but the perk does pop. I tested the precision damage during the nightfall. One precision shot did 14k (solar burn though), following shot did 30k. That is a good bonus.

It is great on PvE as if you string precision kills you can get a couple of extra bullets back, like a shotgun Black Hammer. Tried it on PvP daily, faces got smashed with this thing. Fast fire rate and massive range. Single slug just feels great.

Also, you reload it and as you whip gun round it makes a whipcrack sound? Why? Because fuck logic imma shotgun.

[Mr Ben]

We did the nightfall earlier and there were taken everywhere. No solar snipers at all oddly. Its random whether you get Taken or Vex though I think.

[Oz]

cruziblugh shenanigans with lechuck. good old fashion truth. be the bullet.

I bought that tonight, and got the FWC machine gun as a package drop, it's got max stability on it but haven't tried it out yet.

2 full raids done this evening - not had the best drops, got the ghost she'll but it was only 300, everything else was doublers. Only need the scout rifle & auto rifle & I'll own all raid weapons. ????

It would have been like Christmas if I got a Ghost Shell above 290 to be honest. No idea what the game's got against me in the Ghost department, but I'm still stuck at 286

We all got some fat loots from the raid earlier (no ghost for me mind ), and got to where we were last week in one night! Well pleased with that.

[Kryptonian]

I managed a 304 ghost and a 307 fusion rifle
