Were they planning on doing any gear balancing this/next week or was that a "next year" to-do item?

I imagine it must have an ICD of some sort, otherwise that'll be great with something with a high rate of fire in your other slot.

It would be funny if they over-loaded like Sturm/Drang.

I wonder how those will interact with Lucky Pants.

I just got one of the new Osiris SMG's and it might be a competitor to Antiope.



900 RPM with slightly lower range!

I got an Atalanta-D which has a ridiculously fat suppressor on it. It's a 600rpm Hakke energy SMG with bad stats that I fed to my Antiope.

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?

I've played through the one with the cyclops boss already and I'm guessing the one with the Cabal guy and maybe the end boss of the story.

The hunter jester pants are pretty great. The top arcstrider tree already let you punch and dive forever, now all the enemies around you get disoriented so they don't shoot you nearly as much in the process.

The new monarchy ornaments are by far the best. The Hunter gear which is unfortunately mobility comes with a gold plated arm.

They improved baseline regeneration enough that going more into mobility/resilience feels perfectly viable. I even prefer mobility now.

I just hope the fix to the lens in pvp doesn't mean it gets nerfed in pve as well because it's super fun to hose down clusters of enemies with it.

Orv posted:

No, it doesn't have the same tick problem in PvE, it's just a slightly AoE Coldheart.

I think it does more up-front damage than Coldheart as well so if they don't nerf it too hard it might still be a more viable alternative to Coldheart in pvp.

Fly Molo posted:

Same here, even when everybody does good damage with coldheart/cluster bombs/empowering rift/rally barrier, we're barely able to take down half a bar of health per damage phase. Not enough to kill him in just 4 rounds...

Were you using extra head lasers you don't need to open the shield? They do a ton of damage.

So if Coldheart is about focusing damage on a single target and Prometheus Lens is best for killing lots of small fry, what will the inevitable void trace rifle do? Portion of damage returned as healing?

The more I play around with armor/stat sets that aren't just all restoration the more I wonder how much legendary mods on armor are worth it.

Are public events the most efficient way to gain glimmer? I'm constantly scraping 5k together just to get a mod installed.

I still haven't done any trials because I'm generally pretty happy with my welfare engrams. I got the new scout rifle today that's essentially a MIDA with explosive rounds. Still haven't found a better sniper rifle than The Long Walk, either.

I have this problem with Sunshot. Datto et al. are definitely correct in calling it a top-tier handcannon for PvP as well as PvE but the way the entire model bounces up after every shot and blocks the sight picture makes it quite difficult for me to actually land all precision shots at a 150 rpm cadence.

If your monitor has a crosshair overlay option use it. It makes Shattered Peace my favorite gun in pvp.

Mayhem taught me that Dawnblade has the best Warlock super but it's not as good as Hammer of Sol which means it still won't compensate for how lovely the rest of its kit is.

It's a little frustrating to be one item slot away from 335 power and not get anything for that slot in your powerful gear engrams.

And since that slot is cape, I wouldn't be able to farm exotics for it either.

At least masterworks seem a little more frequent now that I'm 334 so that's another thing to shoot for when you're near/at power cap.

Some UT2K4 game modes would be very welcome. Assault, Onslaught and Bombing Run could all work within the game's framework if they just drop the asinine 4v4 restriction and make some larger maps.

I thought I heard in one of those dev talk videos posted recently that they're nerfing the clan engram rewards because they didn't like the idea of people doing nothing and getting something even though theres nothing to actually do in this game.

The portion of your magazine it refunds (it generates it, not taking it from reserves) is half, BTW. It has a fairly long but classy-looking reload animation. It also has rampage and ricochet rounds. The perfect mook-murderer.
