I've been at the strikes trying to get exotic primaries to feed to my Nirwen's Mercy. It is indeed a beast of a gun in PVP and PVE.

I bought it and don't really see any reason to use it over Red Death. Am I missing something?

Hmn. Red Death is very, very good, but I don't have a Y2 Red Death. It's a slightly different archetype, too - I think it's the same type of PR as Bad Juju, so lower impact than RD traded for stability.

(Other obvious reason - you want to use an exotic Heavy or Special).

It's similar in most stats, but the standout feature is that it's way, way more stable. Even at range, the shot pattern is so tight you'd be forgiven for thinking you're firing just one (slightly messy) round. That's the main thing for me - I don't generally like pulse rifles, but this is close enough to a scout to make it worthwhile.

Plus, as others say, it frees up an exotic slot.

This has some good info http://kotaku.com/the-messy-true-story-behind-the-making-of-destiny-1737556731

Destiny’s story went through several revisions before the reboot, but the supercut’s version revolved around players’ hunt for the warmind Rasputin, according to two people familiar with the original plans. In today’s Destiny, Rasputin doesn’t do much but listen to classical music in a steel bunker on Earth, but in the 2013 version, he would have starred in a more prominent role. Alien Hive would have kidnapped the machine and brought him to their Dreadnaught spaceship, which was later cut from vanilla Destiny and moved to The Taken King. Originally, this Hive ship would have been part of the main story. “The entire last third of the game took place on the Dreadnaught with you rescuing Rasputin,” said one person who worked on the game.

I've never used Red Death, so can't comment. But NW does now mean I can use an exotic elsewhere, like the Chaperone, Sleeper Stimulant, or exotic sword. :)

I have both, Red Death is better as it has that kill someone and get health back that can lead to wrecking entire teams but as said it takes up an exotic slot so I am trying to level up the NW - seems like primary guns and legs get the least drops!

If you do PoE with 3 coins things do you get year 2 exotics dropping from he bosses and tat from the chest?

New quest is live apparently. Need to pick up the secret ghosts in today's daily Paradox mission to activate it (or have done it last time it was live)...

Is that the 3 ghosts in the vault space level, is it a new quest or repeat as needed those ghosts for sleeper didn't we?

Think it's the one you get from the final alternative route after beating the boss in this mission when it is the daily. Seeing people saying you needed to have done this last time it was live for it to activate the quest today.

I did it last time so will check it out soon.

Also, Sleeper Simulant was all about the gunsmith and those fusion rifle parts. The ghosts for this apparently lead to the No Time To Explain (at least thats the theory right now).

Hmm, pretty sure I have those Ghosts but thought they were for something already - have sleep stimulant so thought it was that!

Marmite - was getting the ghosts hard? Reckon we could do it after the raid tonight? Or was it Black Spindle style multiple attempts hard?

Not really, just fiddly. You cant wipe on the way through either as it messes up your chance to acquire all of the ghosts. Finite and I got to the end of the mission but it was taking a while to down the final boss because he kept teleporting and was invisible!

I got fuckall from the raid earlier, well I got a cloak with lower light and worse stats than the one I had equipped - nothing else from anything up to the sisters - sod sorting out nightfall drops...
