*** The Official Destiny Thread (now includes 2.0 and TTK) ***

This is why I will probably not buy the expansion. There is just so little content at the moment and the expansion doesn't add enough to make it worth the amount of time you have to spend grinding to get decent weapons and armour. Every time a new expansion comes out all those guns and armour will be last seasons and not really worth having.

You might've just ran into more Warlocks and got more assists. Its worth 25 for Hunter/Titan but 75 for Warlock.

Managed to grind out enough Helium on Sunday morning to get my Titan up to level 28. Annoyingly the hardest part was getting enough Plasteel Plate to do the upgrades...
Solo'd the Nightfall after. Gjallahorn is definitely the one and only contender for Anti-Wizard rocket launcher. Homing rockets, homing cluster bombs. The final wave of the rune door defence died in the middle of a lot of explosions. Lightning Grenade with Arc Burn does some crazy damage. About 3.8k a hit and triggers several times. Killed Phogoth without even realising it and was a little scared to go outside :p

could you not just buy cheap rubbish armour from the titan vanguard?
 
Its scary to think you need 84 shards for the complete Raid armour set (additional 96 if you want all the Exotic armour for that character) that you forget that with things like buyable armour will help you along the way; that just isnt the case with energies and with the amount of Legendary/Exotic weapons that are out there its probably the more valuable resource long-term

Dismantling a 150 mark weapon is harder than doing the same to a 65 mark armour piece :p

For those wanting to get to level 30 but are having no luck with getting Raid gear, the next Iron Banner event could be for you...

The goal for Iron Banner gear was to provide Armor powerful enough to interest most players after a few weeks of gearing up, and aesthetically appealing to all players. But for very advanced characters, wearing Exotics and Raid gear, the equipment was not powerful enough to consider.

In the next Iron Banner, new exclusive reward Armor will be bumped to Level 30, but will still only be available in two slots. For advanced players, this will make them viable functional or visual sidegrades.

Iron Banner Weapons were already viable sidegrades for all but the most advanced players, but we would like to expand the options available. In the next Iron Banner, the weapon types available will go from two to four, divided between drops on match victory, and purchase from Lord Saladin in the Tower.

So Raid is no longer the only option to reach Level 30?

That might not be a bad thing as I down right refused to play IB last time round as it offered nothing that current crucible did.

Oh FFS Bungie - just change the complete dynamic of the game on a whim.

To be honest it is a good thing, raid armour got you to level 30 but level 30 isn't the best for PvP due to the armour perks. If Iron Banner drops armour that can hit level 30 but with PvP perks that is a bonus in my opinion.
 
There has to be more incentives to keep playing & playing different modes. I didn't touch Iron Banner first time round as there were no rewards for putting any time in to it, might just have a pop this time after I've been through the Nightfall, Raid etc...

Agreed. I'm level 30 but my armour perks aren't the best. If the IB armour offers good perks I'll be all over it.
 
Can't wait for tomorrows reset. Spent the last half of the week doing lame bounties because i got all excited and finished everything on the first day. Did the raid a few times on the thursday and that's it, nothing but crummy dailies to do until tomorrow. This time i'll be doing one per day hahaha

really hoping for some Void damage on the nightfall got 3 new void weapons i want to use on it :)

Aye likewise.

This week was a bit of a downer for me as I have no decent Arc weapons, and don't have quite enough reputation to pick any up. Solar would be pretty good too as I can put the Ice Breaker to good use.

I did the same thing! I will try and do the nightfall as it gives all the extra reputation and experience for stuff!

Need to do the raid on hard too if you're up for that at some point!

I'd be up for a proper hard mode run this week, Shami too no doubt if he's about. Only night I can't do is Wednesday.

Solar damage for me. A fully upgraded Vision of Confluence and a fully upgraded Ice Breaker will tear through anything with the extra solar damage.

Same here, vision, mythoclast, ice breaker, supremacy, pocket infinity, zombie apocolypse. Solar would get ruined this week!

Yeah same, though i pretty much solo'd the nightfall earlier using the 77 wizard while trying to get my 200 nightfall kills for the pocket infinity haha. I'd be good for a proper hard mode raid night thursday?
