I admire your dedication, insane as it is. I'll never understand why Bungie made the crux so much harder to get than even the Mythoclast. At this point the crux should just be a guaranteed drop from HM Oryx - I shouldn't have to grind a raid that Bungie is too lazy to update for Y2 for a garbage bullet hose exotic.

A big thanks to the entire bone krew for sticking it out with me and keeping the weekly triple crota caps alive. Especially MechWarrior and Haplo (who we lost to Overwatch eventually). It was a weekly tradition to kill him, not get it then Gally myself until out of heavy when asked if I got one.

Technically you only need to have obtained Glowhoo/Cryptographic at some point but I always showed up bright blue to be safe.

I get that, it's just that there's no falloff as you move around. It's two quick, precise movements. Most people are way more "analog" as they move around.

Ah, I get ya. Just the way I snipe I guess. I'd rather scope in at head level and strafe into a head shot. It's a little jerky to look at but its effective and I've done it so much that I actually broke the internal ring that holds the left stick up on my elite. Still works fine it just sits a little lower than the right stick and rattles when you hold it upside down. I'll only use the right stick when going for an easy drag scope.

And that there is why third eye is a good perk. Gives you some situational awareness when none of your teammates can communicate with you.

Though I got no explanation why none of them heard a fusion rifle going nuts roasting teammates.

They were really focused on overwatch portal. bone bro TylerB was up there sniping the gently caress out of them the entire match while I ran relay between A and C.

I don't disagree though, I'm in the camp of Third Eye Good.

We'll probably save HM Oryx for when he's the challenge week. This week it's WP.

Purp HCs - in a fun place but I wouldn't call them competitive. Going against a TLW or DoP user who knows what's up will get you killed 100% of the time.

TLW - Definitely takes more skill to use these days but nothing short of a stick is better for shotgun wanks. ADS it and try not to mag dump of you can help it.

Thorn - Take off ye ol Send It and switch to PB. It can be effective but you really have to work with it. Kite, dodge, peek, etc.

Hawksaw/PDX - As much as I don't like using them they are still king of the hill.

SS/DoP - still shred but you're punished for going body.

Shotguns - Range increasers need to come down. I don't have an issue otherwise with shotties as they are short of that.

Snipers - I think body damage should come down. Sure I like to post hilarious close range clutch snipes but let's be honest here it's luck. I do think some kind of de-scope mechanism would be neat but it has to have some limits like a direct head on crit or something.

Special ammo - should probably get nerfed again

look I'm all about the modern pvp experience being poo poo but pissing in a bunch of strangers Cheerios or acting like bungie is 'protecting' them from you is loving mind numbingly dumb

of course they're 'protecting' them from you, you're much loving better than they are. what do you expect bungie to do? put 44 percent win rate players against orchestrated six stacks? the lag is garbage but what the gently caress it's not like playing against these kindergarten scrubs is somehow better?

Anything is better than the poo poo stain lobbies full of loving red bars. If it takes a new account and making GBS threads on people that refuse to get better than so be it. It's an alien concept to me that bungie thinks it's okay for bullets I shoot to not connect while I take an rear end full of buckshot from across the map.

Why you can't figure this out is the biggest travesty tbh

Gameplay from this weeks trials map: https://youtu.be/Qyap2PUmXZM

Also, i really don't like this map and it's even worse in trials. The lower spawn (what we had in the clip) is at a huge disadvantage.

I really struggled with this map and dislike it for 6's as well. I will say that that tripmines in the party room easily got me more kills than sniping or primary by far. How people do not see those things even at high level play is baffling to me.

As one of the lovely players who is likely being protected by the current matchmaking, I am curious how it would be to make a new character. In terms of actual time invested, how long did it take to get decent weapons to play with? Did you level your entire super tree, or just get it started? It might be fun playing with a limited build, no reload gloves or extra armor gear.

Just play through the intro mission, get to the tower, pop the light that gets you to level 25 then just use whatever the crucible craps out at you.

I'm working on the Touch of Malice quest, and the Undying Mind strike claims to be matchmaking, but it automatically puts me into the strike without even attempting to search for other players.

It's a specialized version of the strike and this late into the TTK release cycle this is hardly surprising. Grab some goons.
