Wait, is there not a step after it that needs a whole bunch of activity completion and stuff?

Cause that, plus the catalyst kill grind itself is more of what I'm dreading to be honest. (But getting guardian kills with sidearms, much less a very mediocre one kind of sucks farts.)

The catalyst seems to be progressing on any Stasis kill with the weapon equipped. So just use Stasis for one or two matches and you are done.

A golden helix streaked skyward from the Helvault. A thunderous explosion shattered the silver monolith and Avacyn emerged, free from her prison at last.

Now that the seasonal armor is no longer in the seasonal rewards, am I right in thinking there's no way to unlock it for transmog without buying the season pass?

If you earn it in game (I think it drops from the override activity) , you can unlock it for transmog with synthweave.

The whole ADA thing seems like it would be a lot worse if you're not a warlock main, since 90% of a floof diver's appearance is the hat and robes. With warlocks, the robe governs the upper arms and usually covers the legs, so if you ornament a fairly neutral pair of gloves and boots you can get away with just shading the gloves and trousers to match.

Titans and hunters though need the extra slots, especially titans if they don't want weird shoulders.

The real controversy is not letting us use the halloween masks :colbert:

If you're maining a Titan you by default do not think the shoulders are weird

Unless you're one of those perverts that tries to do tiny properly proportioned shoulders I guess, but we don't talk about those people

Celestial shoulders are a good balance. Large but relatively proportionate, make up for lack of sheer size with presence of detail (and glows). Hence using them all the time.

The true goal of transmog for Titans is symmetrical shoulders, and I say that as someone who did their level best to never use symmetrical shoulders in Halo and other games with similar customization. Destiny's are just a mite too big.

On the plus side, yeah, I think I can do 4, maybe 5 Warlock transmogs and I may as well be done with them. Holdfast and Seraph robes and find two hats to go with them, maybe some specific bond if I decide I really care. I don't play them much so it's nice the investment is low. Hunter and Titan both have sets already that I'm happy with minus one or two pieces as well (chest for Titan is Praefectus and Legatus disrupts what I like about it, Hunter I don't use the Legatus legs and I'm eyeing the cloakless option when it rolls around for bright dust).

On the minus side the sets that would be really nice for building a look around exotics are long gone. Barricade Fence, you'll never have matching armor, sorry buddy.

Hey, at least he gets to give slightly less mercy on the right side of my soul, because it's not missing all its armor.
Completely separate: odds DSC is going to be harder to get a group for now that the pinnacles are gone? Still missing 3/7 weapons and still on the lookout for a better roll on the 3 legendaries I already have. (They're good rolls, but all have an essentially dead perk alongside the best-in-slot perk.)

So I am trying to solo the shattered throne up to the part of the horde so I can get some sword kills and the #1 thing killing me is inertia. 4 times now I have been shield slammed into solid objects and insta killed and twice knocked off the edge.

This is super annoying.

Why are you doing thrallway instead of wishing to Shuro Chi or running Altars of Sorrow?

Altars are probably less annoying to get to and have more kills per second overall.

Psycho Landlord

It's entirely dependent on what you're trying to catalyze. Thrallway is absolutely the choice for some poo poo like sunshot or Grav lance because of the density of weak-rear end enemies all clustered together. Shuro's fine for general kills and relatively easier to get to, Altars is great when the instance isn't full.

i highly recommend just doing override with a sword

i'm at like 80% from just using a sword whenever i feel like it and it also progresses your seasonal thing

override is also good for the heir apparent catalyst

Override was pretty good. Might go back to it later.

Edit: Just got a Vouchsafe from this place. Seems pretty rad.

Double Edit: Maxed out the sword thingy, finished Iza Burdens and got the Heir Apparent to 98% before the servers went down. Gotta say, this place is pretty great.

I have brained my damage.
So I just booted up the game and got through the season intro video and then it sent me right to Europa for the first activity. Is this first mission something I can complete cooperatively with a friend or does it have to be done solo? It's not like I need the help, but it's fun to play together and we wanted to kick the new season off together.
