Destiny: FIN

[Gigga]

This festival thing is amazing. I'll take more of this nonsense over half baked dlc as long as some other chumps pay for it by buying dance moves.

[Gorf King]

I'll actually pay for it, and won't feel like a chump at all - it's been great fun tonight. Like playing a hybrid of Halo and Animal Crossing.

My favourite outfit at the moment for sneaking up on people and going 'boo':

BOO!

Dismantle masks, yesssss?

(I can't bring myself to dismantle them - I wonder how much Silver they'll charge for infinite vault space?)

[Nate Dogg III]

Yeah I can't bring myself to dismantle any either, apart from dupes. Still have a few bits of year one armour in the vault.

What a fun evening. So cool seeing loads of engrams and Crotas in crucible, doing public events with tigers etc. Bumped into two other big cats on the moon, we did zombie dances and touch of malice suicides until the devil walker arrived. Just need cryptarch and speaker and my warlock's done.

The Atheon thing is just great too.

[Oz]

I have paid for both of us probably Gorf. I will need to start not buying silver. Of course, the counter argument is this:

and this:

[Varnsen]

ah cool they've added a new crucible map! Cathedral of Dusk

if this is how things are gonna go, free updates and the like, that's pretty good.

[Nate Dogg III]

Nightfall is Sunless Cell with Epic, Void Burn, Brawler, Juggler and Iron Clad.

That Shrieker room will be fun

No Time To Explain quest has ticked over for those that didn't get the ghosts until last week, by which I mean apologies in advance for trying to persuade my raid group to run VOG instead of King's Fall tonight.

[Hexx]

Oh cool. Would be up for a VoG run if its ticked for me

[Shimmyhill]

As soon as you can see if left or right door is open in the shrieker room you can run it - even easier if a hunter makes everyone invisible!

[Nate Dogg III]

Normally you can, yeah, but I'd be wary of trying it with void burn on without at least dealing with the witch at the back first. Invis will help, you're right, but obviously fuck Hunters.

[Varnsen]

With Void burn, won't it be a one hit kill from a shrieker?

[Nimmel]

I finally broke under peer pressure and picked up a PS4 and Destiny yesterday. Joining in the middle of a holiday event made things even more overwhelming than perhaps they usually are!

Is there anything from the event that would be useful for levelling? Or is it all cosmetic bits and bobs?

[Nate Dogg III]

Purely cosmetic. I'd do it because it's fun, and you'll fill candy bags (that you exchange for masks) by killing stuff while you're playing the game itself, but I wouldn't focus on it or anything.

[Uncle Mike]

Maybe armour set for protection against void burn will counter that.

Maybe.

Maybe not, I reckon. I played with Solar burn armour in a previous Nightfall, and I felt like it made sod all difference.

I'll be taking out all bar the furthest away shriekers for sure when I do it. Then try a run.

[Lyrical Donut]

Maybe not, I reckon. I played with Solar burn armour in a previous Nightfall, and I felt like it made sod all difference.

I just survived a Shrieker blast on the NF with Solar armour on my Sunbreaker*. Just make sure your subclass is specced for max armour too.

*Centurion from afar finished me off, mind.

[Hexx]

I'll hide at the back until my teammates get to the next room and summon me. Because they darkness might try a flank attack so I'll protect the rear

[Shimmyhill]

Hunter to do half the run invisible then hand over to the master race to blink jump the last bit, fairly straight forward I reckon - we have done a void burn one before haven't we?

[carlospie]

So the first sword quest, is there a fast way to get the required items from the dreadnought?

[Hexx]

"Fast" not really.

The best spot I found was the Mausoleum - running round the side rooms which each spawn a chest (and couple of chest spawns in middle) was still a while, but a nice tight route.

[SpagMasterSwift]

Glad I saved my last Pumpkin Head all year to wear on Halloween now...

Can't be mad though, the blue skull head is awesome.

[womblingfree]

I'm Level 32 at the moment and trying to rattle up to 40 asap. I've joined the rllmuk clan so any raids or strikes going tonight I am up for them! I've no mic though in case that's an issues.

Do you not get one packaged in the box with a PS4? That little ear bud thing? That does the job.

If not, you should definitely see about getting one, it makes the world of difference to this game.

If you get bored of farming (you will) you can do some Court of Orxy and complete the weekly dreadnaught bounty that pops up. These will rank up with Eris, where there's a chance of getting 10+ Hadium flakes from the reward package. That might depend on your rank with Eris, mind.

[Baring]

25 crucible kills with my sword for the first quest. I don't play crucible, is it painfully slow this one?

Anyone need it also and fancy playing rumble/kill each other?

[carlospie]

How do you get into court of oryx? Is it a mission? Womble add me I'm level 260 and can help

[Weavus]

Dreadnought patrol. Go left at the start, you can't miss it, its a big platform thing with statues in front of it. You will need some runes to pop into the statues to start encounters if you don't have any you can still get some rewards (and runes) by helping others do their runes in the court.

The "easiest" way to get these is in Mayhem Clash, due to far more heavy ammo drops. Hexx suggested this to me, but I didn't believe him until I'd got 6 sword kills in my first match*; it really is much better for them.

* I only scored a single sword kill in the next match, but we won't talk about that.

Tried that last night. Managed 1 kill.

The bastards that take the heavy before anyone else gets there, hates em.

But you don't technically need the Heavy Ammo, you can Hilt them to death.

The "cheesiest" way is to find two mates, go into Rumble, get them to run into a certain spot when they respawn (until someone twigs what you're doing and starts going there too, at which point switch meeting point), then kill them with the hilt. It's two hits, you don't need the heavy ammo, and it still counts as a sword kill.

With a bit of luck it'll only take you 2-3 games.

Oh god, I DO have one of those! Ok, Ill fish it out and will then be raid ready.

I need this too Baring, shoot me an invite if you spot me

Also looking to do the Court of Oryx T2&T3 fragments there's no bugger there every time I head over, up to 39 fragments now that ToM is within reach!
