I'm crazy excited for matchmaking for raids.

Sure, they'll be dud groups, but at least now I can at least attempt to run raids. Instead of sifting through the100 or LFG trying to cobble a group together.

Might be the wrong thread to ask in but any PS4 bros that are around mind helping me knock out the Sunless Cell strike for the exotic swords? Need to get solar and void, so we can wreck the arc knight when we drop in and try and kill the other two together + alak hul at the end to do it all in one go.

I'm getting a whole lot of nothing from Fireteams on reddit. :sigh:

My roommate and I are planning on doing it too.

He needs the void sword, I need the arc and solar.

My vault's pretty much full of stuff from when I freshly hit 400.

Just tons of "well, this is good infusion fodder, better save it if I get a good roll from an engram"

Now I just don't want to bother cleaning it out.

I hope options open up for Titans. I enjoy playing them, but Defender is pretty much the only choice for raids and such. I'd like to be able to mix it up a bit.

Yup, exotic engrams and crucible rewards too.

I got from 385 to 400 really quick during an Iron Banner week. Got my poo poo kicked while my LL was still a little low, but it has good drop rates.

I used to go to PAX prime every year, haven't gone for a couple years just due to time and finances.

PAX is cool and good, but not if you just sit in lines to play games. The fun is in panels and the tabletop gaming areas.

The default in the Halo games was 4v4. I don't find it that surprising. Though since they like multiples of 3 for Destiny I'm kind of surprised they didn't do 3v3.

Maybe we'll end up with an 8v8 Big Team Battle sort of playlist down the road?

I assume you can still get the exotics that you didn't pick from the quest rewards at some other point in the game.

I want every exotic.

At the very least you can roll a new character in a different slot and keep playing through and shoving the exotics in your vault.

The NPCs are gone from The Farm after the campaign?? I'm surprised they have the ability to do that. I wonder if you literally go to a different Farm before and after Campaign.

(Does Hawk Lady have a faction that increases in any way? I'm trying to think if there's ever any reason at all to go back there)

Hawk lady deals with clan stuff. Which currently seems to be not working correctly.

I don't think the drop rate is too high. I'm 270 and yet to get an exotic from a public event. Of the 3 exotic engrams I've gotten one was the freebie, one from an adventure, and the other from a lost sector.

right now my biggest complaint is that none of the guns i've gotten feel very...good. like, i'm constantly using mida because it's just 'a gun that shoots straight' and not a whole lot of legendaries honestly seem to do that. maybe i'm spoiled by destiny 1 god rolls.

Nameless Midnight is a pretty drat good. I prefer it over the MIDA. I just use the MIDA because it has higher light.

this ties into the other problem: even if there was a gun that looked cool, if there's not a quest to get it, what the gently caress am i supposed to do? the gunsmith only gives me lovely suros elemental scouts and hawthorne's shotgun. the fact there's no way to acquire a gun that you want is absolutely mind-boggling to me. what am i supposed to if i keep getting SMGs? accept the fact i'll never damage an enemy more than four feet away?

You get it from rep packages from Zavala.

It's called Legend of Acrius, it's an exotic shotgun, the quest currently hangs up on a step called "await the world eater," but will eventually require doing something in the raid, then completing last week's nightfall, then completing a bunch of strikes.

Its an arc shotgun that overpenetrates.

You have to complete The Arms Dealer with 7 minutes remaining. That's going to suck.

Shame I'll never use it because giving up my instant summon legendary one isn't going to happen.

Real bummer too because the exotic one looks kick rear end (it's the jousting one) and my legendary is the lotus flower one.

Do they? They seem like they do very low damage and have very low ammo capacity.

If you land all the shots they can do a fair amount of damage though. I've been having fun with the FWC one.

The single-shot flashbang is fun in PVE too just for blinding the mini-bosses on patrol.

I'd love to ditch the quest and be able to vault the Acrius. I don't really care about the ornament, and I don't really care to take the time to find a group for the prestige raid. Running it on vanilla wasn't that fun to begin with.

I haven't noticed any more loot. It's probably like the 3oC where your chance goes up by a fraction of a percent.
