I would be pretty surprised if leveling up the other factions didn't give you commendations. Then again Bungie's surpised me a few times in the last week.

xyigx posted:Would the small ammo pool hurt the mythoclast to much to use as a raid primary? I have been trying to decide between it and the VoC for what to run for the first blind raid. I'm gonna take my Mytho for a spin in the Crota raid today and see how it works today. If it's constantly running out of ammo I'll just switch to VoC or Suros or something, but I'm hopeful that it'll work out and be more ammo efficient just because it has more attack than anything else right now.

FishBulb posted:Didn't they say like months ago there was some bug that made strike bosses have too much health or am I crazy They did and I'm pretty sure they said they were gonna fix it but then nothing. It seems like an incredibly simple thing to fix and it would instantly make every strike 5x better.

Greenplastic posted:What? Behind the crates in the corner? It's exactly the same as before. Really? I could have sworn one of the recent patches said they fixed it but I haven't actually done the strike since then. e: Looking back through the patch notes I can't find it.

omg chael crash posted:I was hoping for a while that the new story would get us the gear we missed out on in the raid. Make it easier for people who didn't get the same amount of gear from the raid as other people. That's what the new Vanguard/Crucible stuff is for. Putting everyone at level 30 for doing like 4 story missions would be pretty funny though.

GruntyThrst posted:So do you guys think it'll take a longer or shorter amount of time to World First Crota's End? I'm betting on shorter... say 4 hours. Way shorter I think. People are better leveled, better geared, and just better at the game than when VoG was being attempted for the first time. Unless Crota is massively harder than anything in VoG I doubt it'll take people that long to figure it out for the first time.

Eris has a quest to kill stuff in the Nightfall that gives 3 motes of light on top of rep and exp. Neat. She also sells ammo synths for Black Wax and trading one of the new raid materials for the other costs 1 Black Wax + 500 glimmer.

Mazerunner posted:Ascendant Shards/Energy can be traded in for Radiant Shards/energy! (plus one black wax idol and 500 glimmer) Pretty sure you can only swap between the 2 types of Radiant. Unless the Ascendant trade in is with someone other than Eris. e: Turned in 2 legendary engrams and got 27 light gear out of them. Bummer.

Tokubetsu posted:Hit the third part of the raid and idk if it's possible with just 30s Yeah it's extremely tight if it is doable. At 30 the DPS check is brutal and everything in there 1-2 shots you. Definitely wasn't expecting level 32 stuff so soon in the normal raid.

Getting 8 ascendant energy from the new Nightfall is a bigger kick in the balls than the 5 coins the old gave me a couple of times. ps What does everyone think of Murmur? I haven't leveled it up all that much but even now it's probably my favorite non-Plan-C fusion rifle. e: Not sure I'm crazy about Kneepads being its last perk though.

FishBulb posted:So how many chests do people think are in the first section of the raid? I'm going with 2. The first one is really easy (we still missed it on our run though ) so I'm guessing there's at least 1 more harder to find one in there. Definitely gonna want to get as many chests as possible this reset since the new materials are gonna be hard to come by for a while.

FishBulb posted:I bet there's one somewhere in that hallway between the second and third parts too. Might be one hidden on the other side of the bridge for the second encounter too.

Where are people doing the "melee kill 7 things fast" bounty? I was planning on going back to the sword part of the first new mission since that seemed easiest but it seems to be the only mission you can't replay.El Hefe posted:I give a big round of applause to anyone who is able to finish this week's nightfall. The last part is hilariously rough. Just arc grenade launcher Knights and Wizards everywhere, 2 shotting you constantly. We had to take the boss fight really slow but we got through it eventually.

UberJumper posted:Does the new raid have any actual raid weapons that drop in normal? I have beaten the first two parts of the raid twice now and haven't seen a single weapon drop for anyone.
