Which CoO missions are reused for Strikes? I didn’t get them in my heroic strike playlist today. Do they at least try to make them feel original with new dialogue?

Legs Benedict posted:they're talking about Heroic Adventures, which are things you trigger from Vance in the Lighthouse and are PL300 with Nightfall-style modifiers  Oh, huh. That sounds hopefully interesting? But I can see the confusion about content that's normally solo in the first place suddenly designed around "We were kind of expecting a fireteam, even if you can pro shoot your way through solo"

Skoll posted:I haven't done the Heroic milestone yet. Is that poo poo really timed like nightfalls? The Runner kind of is, and is basically impossible to solo if say, you get Prism on it. But there doesn't seem to be any actual decrease in rewards if the Valus gets away, so  And if there is a decrease all three adventures I did gave blues so whatever.

How do you actually obtain a lost prophecies quest? Brother Vance only has a heroic adventure quest available to me. I've finished the expac campaign and the three adventures.

I'll restate that I am not saying that they intentionally balanced the heroic adventures for a full fireteam, but it seems like it's definitely some of the most difficult single player destiny content I've played. Does anyone know if you get a bonus or anything for hitting the time limit? Also, I thought before I took my first heroic adventure that it said you could only do one per day, but after I did mine I was able to grab another one right away.

Testing out the positive outlook, I think its worse than the uriels when you use the first two scopes and kill clip isnt all that exciting compared to the same thing on an antiope. The standout part of this weapon is the long range scope and the range stats to support it.

Directly compared to a cuboid, PO has 90% of the base damage but better stability, much better range, and a slightly better zoom on the scope.

Played thru the campaign, ran a Heroic Strike, got a few Exotics, a Gray Pigeon (cargo net ship), a Curse of Foresight (Sparrow with Vex-y art/contrail), the sweeper bot emote, an Exotic Ghost that summons Sparrows quickly/reloads while I ride/gives telemetry on any elemental kill, and the dope Eververse Warlock robes. Only problem was that more than once I dropped into an empty phase in the EDZ, but outside of that it's been aces. It's about what I expect for $20 ($15 with the expansion pass/digital deluxe), especially since we're getting more updates starting next week.

Have y'all noticed that Icarus Dash is lousy on PC? About half the time it does what it's supposed to: https://imgur.com/W7tWB24 And the rest of the time, it does this instead: https://imgur.com/HbVhred The kicker is that using vsync to cap the game to 30 FPS solves this issue. Loving that port life Surely there's at least one other stubborn Dawnblade out there who feels my pain on this Edit: ugh how do i embed these

A 50S RAYGUN posted:trace rifles are going to look good in pvp because it tracks assists as ‘eliminations’ and it’s hella easy to tag people w them I don't wanna go crazy here, but I think this gun literally renders all other guns irrelevant in PvP. As in, you might as well not ever pick up Power Ammo kind of strong. I killed three enemies standing beside one another in less than half a second of fire. The TTK is basically the same as Antiope-D at point blank, except for every range. poo poo is nutso, it has nothing to do with tagging people. I haven't lost a straight fight using it once in 4 consecutive games.  I guess get this gun and own bones while you still can? Do they ever hotfix things? Trials and Crucible looks like it's gonna be laser tag from now on.

About the traveler in past mercury , I think the obvious explanation is that the traveler is a machine, not a self-aware creature. So everyone in the know kind of ignore it, is not a enemy, only a resource to be harvested. Ingame we are presented with the arrival of the vex, and the traveler was already in mercury, so the logical follow is that the traveler is not vex. Or at least is not part of the vex just now. Is also interesting that the place we use to rez sakira is a vex rock. So theres some relationship vex-traveler-ghosts.

I was exploring around Mercury and saw a line pop up in the bottom left that said "Lost chest unlocked..." or something like that. Anyone know what that refers to? Is it something I did somehow or is it a global message?

The chest in the social area can be opened by activating the symbols in the right order.

The standout part of this weapon is the long range scope and the range stats to support it. I've been trying Positive Outlook and it's going straight to the Vault. It's definitely not doing damage comparable to my Uriel's that is 15 levels lower until you trigger Kill Clip - which as a Titan you probably never will, because War Rig doesn't seem to count as reloading.

Just got this game, joined [TIME], and am enjoying the game as I 'level'. Don't care much (nor need to) about the writing, and it'll be weeks before I can even parse most of the jargon going through this thread  Happy to be aboard.

I'll wait until next week's update and raid lair availability until passing opinion on CoO but right now I don't think it's really much of an improvement over Dark Below at the same stage of Destiny 1's life. The team was supposed to improve their output by now. The amount paid for this expansion was definitely excessive. edit: I was also really attentive to the story but I have no idea what the "curse" of osiris actually is.

The infinite forest takes longer to walk through than it does to kill the enemies. If they cranked up the mob density by like 200% they'd probably approximate something close to fun. e: Two tokens and TWO BLUES.

Yeah my chief complaint is that the entire expansion was about Ilona and Osiris and we don’t know anything about either of them. What is the Curse (“I have to hunt Vex across every timeline or they win?”) Why would you exile the most powerful guardian? How was this all so long ago that a cult (of one man!?!) sprang up around him and wrote books about it? Why is Sagira a female? Pre-Press made that seem important and it isn’t I bought the season pass and so the money getting spent months ago means I don’t care but after logging off last night I’m echoing the sentiment that I definitely feel like I’ve gotten content patches bigger than this for free in other games. As an Xpansion the only parts expanding are the weapon/mod system mechanics and a new set of raid events, but the gameplay loop remains totally unchanged as it is, I guess I was hoping the infinite forest would be a little more in depth. I was expecting a procedurally generated dungeon that used every environmental tile set in the game and mix-up enemy spawns so I’d be fighting Harpies and Knights and Legionnaires all at once and then a boss fight, basically Nephalem Rifts from Diablo 3. It’s Moot because I enjoy farming my light up to cap and I wanna try the new broken deathlaser but if you were on the fence about Destiny 2 than CoO isn’t gonna change your opinion

It feels like all the necessary pieces are already in the game to create a game mode like Diablo 3 Rifts. You have a first half that is this sort of procedurally generated dungeon, then a final level with a mini boss. The heroic modifiers mean there can also be an even harder version of this stuff. Just put in a cooler boss at the end from a pool of based on the campaign bosses, instead of just an high target value, and you got something that people will happily do over and over again. Put in seasonal leader boards and it's half way to fix D2 end content. Though I'm willing to bet the reason you don't see more mixed enemies in the forest rooms is that they all programmed to fight each other if they come in contact.
