I haven't played this since last October when Forsaken came out. Is there anything else I need to get or do before I buy Shadowkeep or am I good?

There are quite a few exotic weapon quests you might want to take care of. Other than that, not really?

Is XUR still Mr. Strange Coins?

I've not gone to him this game because I haven't ran nightfalls to get coins yet.

Gambit Prime is so much better than regular. What's the difference in matchmaking?

Also, do Prime matches count towards regular gambit bounties?

Xur's still around, he takes shards

so I haven't played this since launch, do I want the one with the 1 season pass or the one with the 4 season passes (jesus christ how many seasons are there)

Depends on how much Destiny you see yourself playing. There are four seasons this year, starting with Undying. Bungie is moving toward a "evolving world", so you might miss some events, but they said you could be able to acquire the relevant gear in other ways.

Hello friends is bottom tree Nightstalker good now? I always wanted to like it. It seems like Shadowshot in general got some buffs and maybe Moebius Quiver isn't horrible now?

The new synergy between bottom tree smokes and grenades is pretty good, but it's much better when you can coordinate with your fireteam so you can smoke them at all times. I think I read somewhere that you get 17 percent of your grenade back for every teammate that you make invisible. Tether also got a damage boost.

I got the Vex Offensive start quest. There are 3 warp gate areas. You can check the map to see which location is flashing. Head to that area, kill some vex/gate lords and you unlock the activity proper.

In Vex Offensive, you kill shiny vex, they drop laser brains which you kill oracles with. You do that 3 times and then a boss spawns, and you do the same thing to drop his shield and kill him.

edit: got a pulse rifle, hand cannon and 2 pairs of pants from the one run.

Can't remember the post, but someone mentioned it's because the bolts are coded as either combatants or characters, which is why they also counted as finish line crossings in the gauntlet in Menagerie.

The first mission of Shadowkeep (A Mysterious Disturbance?) is also a fantastic place to grind heavy/special catalysts. The second area has sigil that you need to stand on to move on; just ignore them and go to town. Heavy boxes spawn constantly along with groups of adds. It's great.

Any suggestions for grinding out void melee kills on the moon? All I can think of is Nezarac's Sin + Recluse to keep getting void kills, and that's still probably going to take a while. All the other ones I was able to find decent ways to force.

Smack enemies with a void sword without any ammo and it will count.

Devourlock lets you keep your melee charge if you whiff/don't kill with it. I don't know if the other branches work like that, but that's something if you want to minmax on a warlock

I’m currently making my way through it’s quest chain but I’m stuck with the correct forge not being on rotation at the moment.

Which platform is the most active to play with other goons on?

with honed edge x4 you can one shot body shot a guardian

edit: glory changes let me solo to fabled to get mountain top while going for Randy's, and momentum control makes grinding those quests 1000x easier so those are two good things about this awful season

Is the recluse still OP? I have only been playing a couple games of comp a week and finally got to fabled.

edit: How the will the leveling be for the next season? Needing to level chars every three months just doesn't work with my schedule but I want to try the new raid.

Recluse is still op for now but will get a slight nerf next season, probably will still be really good.

Next season, the artifact will be new/reset, so you will lose the perks and power bonus it gave you. Light level returns to your actual max and you'll have to earn a new set of perks as well. These bonuses are account based so you only have to do it once over the course of a season.

So I'd definitely try to do the new stuff before the power bonus goes away.

There is a rocket launcher component in the IB quest? I'm only at the Scout Rifle Kills part.

Guess I can just abandon that poo poo now and go back to getting pulse kills for some huge multi step quest. Claws of the Wolf/Dragon/Whatever rips.

it's part of the last step. It's bad, but you can knock it out in a decent amount of time if you keep track of the heavy spawn timer.
