Rip_Van_Winkle posted:we never got a mars raid in the pits of rasputin and the ice caves and all that cool poo poo with the final boss being a Taken Xol and I'm gonna die mad about it I’ve imagined what a Mars Raid to kill Xol in the Ascendant Realm would be like a could of times. This is what I’ve come up with: First Encounter: Rasputin is going to triangulate Xol’s location in the Ascendant Realm, your team has to protect a Warmind Gate its created from waves of Hive Second Encounter: after locating Xol, the gate opens up to Ascendant Realm, and Rasputin starts sending War Sats in to support you and rain down Javelin bombardments, the introduction to this mechanic is fighting a big Taken Hive Boss Third Encounter: True Xol boss fight, with the War Sat bombardments stunning Xol for the party to damage. When Xol’s health is depleted, it still looks as though Xol is still alive. So Rasputin send’s a warsat to crash into Xol, then set it to detonate Last Encounter: A Halo/Last Wish Queens walk-like trench run on your sparrows back to the gate before Xol and the Ascendant Realm you’re in is nuked by the war sat SgtSteel91 fucked around with this message at 17:00 on Nov 9, 2020 |

idiotsavant posted:As a mostly casual f2p player is it worth the effort to get catalysts for older exotics? Specifically Sleeper Sim and Telesto - I know both have been mentioned already, but is it really worth for how useful they are or just because you won't be able to get them any more? Same goes for the Rat King recommendation. Sleeper, probably not Telesto is the besto, so I would recommend getting the catalyst for it Unfortunately the Telesto catalyst comes from a raid lair that’s going away in... [checks notes] 9 hours

Lore implications... concerning The new Hunter helm exotic's text description comes from a Fallen Exo. Yes you heard me: FALLEN EXO The raid weapon's description has a name carved on the barrel: only a name, and all of them have been [Bray family member name]-1. So Clovis may have created Exos from his granddaughters, yes even Ana. So we may have Exo Ana and Guardian Ana running around at the same time

I've only gotten to try out the Titan Stasis subclass a couple of times at the point I'm at in the campaign, but I'm liking the times I get to play around with it There's definitely a rhythm to it, thought; the flying superman punch on command is great, but using the grenade before hand to make Code of Commander-like "stasis detonators" is where it really shines And that's taken to the extreme with the Super, I feel like you really need to make the ice columns first, then charge in with the fist to make huge explosions I still haven't gotten to the aspects to customize the subclass further, and I might never take that subclass off

Ironically, Heart of Inmost Light works with Stasis Which also gives really good synergy: throw grenade to freeze enemies, then smash them with your empowered melee, which stacks empowered x2 to recharge your grenade so you can repeat

GoGoGadgetChris posted:Yeah, I definitely expected them to UnSet the Shadowkeep and maybe undying loot but this is a good start. Too much of seraph and last season loot was crucial to the meta but no longer obtainable Definitely the Seraph weapons I think Bungie put themselves in a weird situation with the Warmind Mods, cause they either need to keep bringing back the Seraph and Ikelos weapons, make new ones, or the player is forced to use Xeno or Sunshot with a certain solar mod to make use of Warmind Cells

Kind of being an armchair developer, but another change they could have made to Stasis Warlock's melee would be to keep the distance and speed, but hits slows the target, and shatters them if they are frozen So you either need to have frozen them before, or have a teammate freeze them to save your own grenade

OzFactor posted:Shadowkeep is $12 at the Humble Store right now, but what does it actually add at this point? Anything other than its campaign and bounties on the Moon? I have Forsaken so I already have the middle line classes. It depends I believe that expansion adds exotic quests for Deathbringer, a fun gimmic rocket launcher, and Xenophage, one of the best machine guns in the game All of the weapons and armor in the expansion is 'sunsetted' but Bungie might reverse that

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I think the raid might be a little too easy with contest mode off? I know the challenge is mostly learning and executing the raid mechanics and the power fantasy feels really good when you're one-shoting dregs and captains, but there was something special of overcoming overwhelming odds with the enemies 20 above your power level Maybe Bungie will bring in modifiers for the raid, or an option to turn contest mode on again

GoGoGadgetChris posted:Reward structure for DSC is a bit different than other raids. There are indeed curated, encounter-specific rolls on the guns, but you don't them from the encounter. You spend Spoils of Conquest after beating the final boss, and you buy a Cache that has a 1/4 or a 1/5 chance of dropping the curated roll on your desired weapon. If getting the curated gun unlocks it to be bought specifically, it would be helpful if you’re getting rng screwed and not getting the lmg Yes, I have been getting swords from the last chest, why do you ask?

Oxyclean posted:Something I just realized I'd kinda like to see is a rifle type gun. (Like a bolt action or M1-Garand style gun) Like, splitting the difference between sniper and scout? High damage, slower ROF, great on precision with good range. Sounds like No Land Beyond. Basically a sniper rifle without the scope, and you eject each round with the bolt after each shot. Oxyclean posted:Also gimme like a drum/clip fed auto-shotty. How do we have slug shotguns (the nerd shotgun) but not autoshotties? Isn't that just rapid-fire frame shotguns? Or do you mean shotguns where you replace magazines instead of slotting in new shells?

GoGoGadgetChris posted:More loot & also loot is available longer That too One of the things that surprised me was that next season all of the Season of Worthy weapons won't just get removed but moved to Banshee I've been having terrible luck getting the Seventh Seraph Carbine (like I've dropped 1000+ weapons parts and got only one) so I don't have to worry about missing out when the next season rolls around Edit: Then again the only reason I like the Carbine is that it's an AR that looks and feels good Shadow Price looks even cooler and it can be a Adept weapon too so I might just drop the Carbine altogether Dunno what archtype it is, from seeing videos of it in D1, it might be a High Impact, 360 rpm, frame?

Mill Village posted:Sunsetting is not exclusive to Destiny. We're lucky we get sunsetting yearly instead of randomly with patches, but you won't play the game anymore anyway so it really doesn't matter. I can sort of understand the frustration because there's a difference between retiring swords in WoW and guns in Destiny My understanding is that in MMOs like WoW your weapons are just numbers stick you swing around. They all function the same, but the look and effects they might have changes But in Destiny, a Gnawing Hunger is different from a Uril's Gift, a Steelfeather repeater, to a Sacred Providence The guns are more than looks, they handle and sound differently. I have a friend who loves to use Coldheart and only feels comfortable using autos in the kinetic slot. He's lucky he had a steelfeather repeater in his vault, otherwise he'd be stuck with blue autos or praying to the RNG for a Seraph Carbine cause he's not going into Iron Banner to get a Forward Path SgtSteel91 fucked around with this message at 22:41 on Dec 8, 2020 |

Ploygon has an interview up with Luke Smith, where they talk about the idea of implementing the modular system in the Stasis sub-class to the Light sub-classes in the future https://www.polygon.com/2020/12/16/22177177/destiny-2-beyond-light-stasis-customization-subclass-solar-arc-void-super-remake How he would implement it though quote:"You know, all the Supers using the same system, that sounds awesome. But also the Supers that we have in the game would be an edited list. It would be something that’s edited toward more identity than what we have today.” One example he gave was the Warlock Void subclass quote:"It’s much easier for me to look at Nova Bomb and say Nova Bomb is, like, IP-defining,” said Smith. “It’s an IP-defining super; get rid of Nova Warp.” But in this case, Smith is talking about a classic Warlock ability, Nova Bomb, and comparing it to a mediocre, PvP-only Super, Nova Warp. Cutting Nova Warp might hurt some fans, but it’s generally pretty safe; more people like Nova Bomb than Nova Warp. edit: For those worried, looks like it's not happening anytime soon
