Yeah TLW is no joke and I'm surprised you haven't tried it out sooner. Just point at jerk and hold trigger down, they die.

There's more that good players can do with it too.

It just didn't do more for me than what smugglers could and it requires the helm and gloves and only 8 round mag and it's exotic.

But i honestly feel like the stability on console has taken a stealth buff because its feeling much better.

If I'm running erentil with TLW i run full e-targetting but if I'm sniping with tlw i run a "Precision targetting" hat. you still get a heap of bonus ads speed from it and both your sniper and tlw benefit from it. which is good because my prefered twilight oath is slower than dogshit

Beloved (with snapshot and a targeting adjuster) + TLW + handcannon targeting helmet and reload gloves, enhanced unflinching chest.

It's pretty much all I use unless I get that lovely space aids map.

Because the Lost Sector part of the Forsaken quest didn't create any icons to track, I forgot they existed. I played a full two weeks at around 500 light grinding up slowly.

This thread made me realize I'd missed the second half of the quest line, and now blues at 690 are getting dropped on my head. God damnit. I'd be ready for IB if I'd done these quests first.

Now I know what the gently caress the Black Armory and Chalice are about. Kind of. I was worried I'd bought the wrong expansion and just going to stay quiet about it until the new one dropped.

tlw

revoker
trust

blast furnace
erentil

tlw
erentil

pretty much all i run but from time to time ill run ServiceRevolver/Coldheart or monarque/sparerations. i honestly haven't touched my beloved in a good minute after getting a max range os oath. i do honestly like revoker quite a bit. its really quite nice not giving a poo poo if the shot was sloppy and i've always like high impact frame body damage. for space aids map i used to run jade/erentil but these days i run drb/scorpion.

edit: if i need to run a kinetic sniper to make room for luna and be all sweaty ill take the old curated OS bite of the fox over revoker any day of the week tho. shot for shot its a much more consistent rifle

os max range oath is straight horse poo poo though. that gun is busted as gently caress

The only energy weapons i use at all are, Wavesplitter, Twilight Oath, Erentil and Black Scopion.

In the primary slot its pretty much only Smugglers and hoping TLW starts really working me.

Reallllyyyy hoping Xur offers the Huckleberry this week as that's the only Exotic I have left that I really want. I also just realized my girlfriend will be gone from the 3rd-6th so I'm probably going to take vacation next Friday and just play Shadowkeep all weekend.

Did you buy his Fated Engram this week? If you're literally only missing one exotic, he'll give you the Huckleberry in the Fated Engram.

I did, but that's not the only Exotic I'm missing, it's just the only one I want. As far as Kinetics go, I'm missing most of the quest related ones and then Arbalest, Huckleberry, and Crimson.

I have all of the Energy weapons except Borealis, Jotunn, and Tarrabah.

Then the Heavies I'm only missing the quest or raid ones.

But that's not to say he's gonna toss me a piece of armor or something else useless. And then who knows what will be in Shadowkeep.

Yeah, seems smart.

Destiny 2 had so many changes I didn't like that I bailed right before running the first raid. It seems solid enough that I'll be putting some serious hours in for the immediate future.

I still hate the new loving shader system and the sometimes labyrinthian twists and turns of the New Tower.

I started playing in December, and finally hit a good place in August after playing a few hours a night most days of the week. You can get a better start than I did by hooking up with an active clan and using lfg apps and sites, which I didn't get on until around May.

There are only a couple spots in the tower that really matter, the main plaza and the annex, which has its own fast travel point. The hanger is nearly useless, and the bazaar is just for picking up purples a couple times a week.

I hooked up with the goons. We played A LOT of Destiny 1 together. Now, I'm not zonked out on horrible medications I don't need so I'm hoping to be more than the equivalent of the slightly funny/slightly irritating clown constantly slipping on banana peels.

(I still suck though. I played way too much Apex and it really hosed with my Destiny PVP skills.)

The new Shadowkeep trailer showed someone wearing armor 2.0 trials armor

Probably just flawless ornaments but it got me wondering about what it would mean for comp if they brought back trials. Can destiny support two versions of "Losses Matter end game pvp"? Would comp just turn into trials on the weekend? Or maybe trials could come back as a monthly thing like iron banner

Or maybe it's never coming back since like 0.5% of the population legitimately gives a toot

On PC they're mapped to the arrow keys so it's even more dumb to try to do tricks.

ah that's it, I mostly played destiny 2 on pc and I would never have thought to press arrow keys for anything. emotes are too important to have over there so they are on 1,2,3,4.
