Destiny 2: Lightfall

[K]

I doubt that Mask of the Quiet One is that great - the benefits or buffs you get from exotic armour in Destiny 2 seem to be almost imperceptible, apart from Actium Rig which is amazing. 

[Mr Ben]

Its actually the best void exotic for the Titan - decent when you're taking a lot of damage (hi prestige nightfalls - it works on any subclass when taking damage), and using it as a sentinel its really good as you get your health back on void ability kills.

That is what I thought, I'm going shopping this evening then.

I think Xur had that last week or the week before, did not look that special to me. Perk was reloads your ammo from reserves?

[p1nseeker]

Reloads part of your clip while you're firing. So in practice it feels like your magazine is twice the size

Every two seconds or so, it sticks ten rounds in the clip of whatever auto rifle you've got equipped. It's only really effective with Sweet Business because the magazine is so big anyway, but it's incredibly effective with that - you can sustain fire almost indefinitely if you fire in bursts, and even if you just hold down the trigger and go full Jesse Ventura in Predator, you can keep firing for ages.

That could be useful, I'd given anything though to have grenades recharge faster. Would love The Armamentarium 

[Mr Ben]

So this picture is in TWAB's news post:

There is currently no way of having 6 people in one fireteam orbiting Mercury, as the highest is a 4 man team for when it pops up in Crucible. And why have 6 people in a fireteam in orbit above Mercury in the new DLC?

 

Mercury raid tease? We can but hope.

[Uncle Mike]

Or Social area.

[Mr Ben]

Maybe, but nothing other than Leviathan is 6 man, so is a bit strange having them above Mercury like that.

 

Guess we'll have to wait and see.

[Nate Dogg III]

Fireteam leader goes to orbit from new social space, invites other five players.

 

Does make me think that 'raid activity' could just be a new euphemism for 'thing for six players', which I hadn't considered before because I am an idiot.

[Mr Ben]

It may even be that. Prison of Osiris, or Court of Osiris for example.

I'm having so much fun with Actium and Sweet Business that I'm almost certain Bungie are going to nerf it in their first big patch.

Me too. Got my first angry psn message on crucible last night because of it. 

 

It said

 

"Fckin noob get aim"

 

So i just hunted him down in the last two rounds with sweet sweet business always roaring.

 

[Simmy]

Just can't get into this at all now after finishing the main story.

 

Watched the Giant Bomb raid and it was boring as shit

[Broker]

Me and a friend are looking for a third for the nightfall this evening if anyone’s up for it? No comms though...

[Swallow]

Asher Mir has 300 engrams but probably only for another 5 minutes.

[Qazimod]

Ooh, I got Synthoceps gauntlets from an engram - given that one of my worst habits is overestimating my range as a striker, this could help.  

 

EDIT: and I've since got The Prospector thanks to Hawthorne's clan XP milestone. Explosions!

[spork]

Got this on PS4 at launch and got to light level 280ish. Thought the Crucible was rubbish and the rest of the end game so so.

 

I wasn't going to bother, but caved and ended up buying again for the PC yesterday and oh my god, it's like a completely different game. Sniper rifles and hand canons which I hated to use on the PS4 are amazing with a mouse and keyboard and the general shooting just seems so much more at home. I also played several games of Crucible with @Strategos and @rmg and @Paintballer last night and probably had more fun than I did compared to the whole time I played it on the PS4.

[Gorf King]

Crucible will be different, obvs, and the weapon feel and movement will also be different. Lots of people prefer the feel of D2 Crucible on PC to console. End game will be exactly the same though.

[macosx]

That was good run

 

[Hexx]

So underbelly chests.

We were a raider down so unlocked our first one of these

The rewards are shit right? 

Not even 300

[Mr Ben]

Yep, its mainly for tokens. Can get exotics now and then, but considering 9 times out of 10 it'll be something you already have, thats not much of an incentive really.

[Phelan]

Me and some friend gave Trial of Nines a go and, well, lost every single game. Everyone had MIDA in the opposing team. They all had Uriel's Gift. They absolutely slaughtered us and it was the least fun I've had playing Destiny.

 

What I don't understand is that most of the players prefer to play PVE yet the company is obsessed with pushing PvP. Why not focus on PVE and create better campaigns, more planets etc. Hell re-use previous planets. I don't care. Just add lost loot sectors and new missions.

[Hexx]

3 drunk friends and I tried trials last night

 

Match One stomped by 4 Hunters using Antiope. Embarrassing match up

 

Match 2 - decent mix, but one horrific cheater. We won a solid victory though!

 

went to spire to get trophy and agreed to never speak of it agai 

[Broker]

I need the spire one, prestige and the raid and I’ve got all the trophies. 305 Legs for the hunter and Titan and a 305 Bond for the warlock and all three of them will be max power. Missing two exotic weapons but still need six exotic pieces of armour. Oh and the ramen emblem, no idea where that comes from. Hopefully I’ll be done by December 5th

I'm missing one exotic weapon. That damned Skyburner's Oath!!

 

Oh and I'm also missing anything from spire, prestige, raid and the Iron Banner chest piece for my Hunter as I burned 400 tokens with that bastards and still didn't get the damned chest piece!

PvE is more expensive in terms of assets.

Theyll also have a very good idea about where their players play.

I’m not trying for the purple armour sets, just enough pieces that I like to make up three outfits so I can have one of each element. I’ve been keeping max level stuff though because it feels weird sharding it though so I’ve ended up with seven sets of Titan arms.

They do. The stats showed around 1.8 million in PVE and around 800,000 in PVP
