Please do not use an auto rifle for boss DPS when you can use a power weapon or even a sniper rifle.

What's the proper teabag etiquette? Do you do a fast dip or a slow, methodical dip?

Or do you do an actual emote? If so which one?

Neither too fast nor too slow, it’s gotta be fast enough to be annoying but slow enough to show that you’re being deliberate and not just button mashing.

even better if you throw in a salt, heart, sweeping, or low score emote.

Remember the bad old days when we had to plink bosses with two primaries? And Bungie was insistent that it was better gameplay despite everyone and their mother complaining about it from the pre-release beta.

just keep in mind that the faster you bag the more mad you are, and being mad on the internet is an instant loss

There is only one real rule to bagging.

Never be the first to bag, but always be the last.

play well for fun, piss someone off, get teabagged when they finally kill you, kill them a bunch more times and teabag them back, then message them “gg” after the game

then just kick back and watch the hatemail roll in

Adding to Landlord's rule, always bag anyone with TTV (or any variation of Twitch) in their name.

WARNING! INTRUDERS DETECTED

Hobnob posted:

You should be at 750 power because everyone got bumped to that level, even a newly created character starts at that level.
(It's possible you are actually 750 and happened upon a contact event on Io, some of the late-stage spawns in that might be in the immune range of a 750 player).

If you're not, you could try starting the red war campaign (Amanda Holiday in the tower, assuming you have access to the tower), or, I dunno, just start a new character? It's not like you'll be giving up much.

I ended up starting a new character, it immediately gave me level 750 gear and a bunch of breadcrumb quests. Much less bewildering to get started with.

Thanks for the help.

I caught a stream where he instabanned an incel and told him to gently caress off and never come back. So he seems like a purdy cool dude.

I only bag if I've been bagged and deserved it. Otherwise I report for unsportsmanlike conduct because I'm a narc.

My group is new to the game and raiding. We were on Calus in Leviathan and the following happened twice. We were on the last platform and got him down to zero health. He started his charge up move but went immune so obviously we couldn't burn the shield and we died. Is the platform timer that allows for damage running out while he's in that phase and we're just screwed? Do we have to stop and just do a third round of everything?

Also does him going to skeleton form potentially make him skip doing his bomb move which would normally signal time to switch? Do we just have to soak the laser beam? It's frequently killing someone. Maybe we're supposed to side step it.

So, once his health has hit zero, Robo-Calus charges up an attack. Don't aim for the robot, aim for the attack in his hands. Once you do enough damage his attack fails, he blows up and you get your reward.

Also, once he becomes a robot, his face is no longer your damage point, it's the glowing patch on his chest. Shift fire and open up on him.

As for the other steps, when you're on the platforms doing damage, you have to leave and jump to the next platform BEFORE he hits it. He aims at the platform, so if you move you will be fine. On the last platform, drop wells and do your damage.

A good way to do it is by going clockwise. Top-right, bottom-right, bottom left, top left. Each should have about 15-20 seconds of damage.

I have determined that the best bag is when a buddy and I gang up on a super and kill it and instead of bagging said dead super I instead administer the celebratory bag to my buddy who died in the fight.

Love goons talking about unsportsmanlike conduct while selectively perma-banning people for the cherry picked conduct that they don’t like. :rolleyes:

Sure is fun staying in a match where we’re getting killed and t-bagged right as we spawn in, but I’m supposed to sit there and give them the satisfaction.
I bet they even let you cap flags at one point so you wouldn’t get mercy’d.

For the record, the instance Mill is posting about here is when we got matched against a superior team in Iron Banner, they teabagged him, and he responded by actively feeding the other team.
