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

Ascendant shards, the bain of my destiny career. I have 50 energy and no use for them but need about 18 shards to get to 29. Really need to rank up my second warlock so I can do things twice.
 
Me and a friend are looking to try weekly nightfall, normally do weekly heroic, daily on lvl 28 and Tigers.
Level 28 Warlock and level 29 Hunter.
Would be willing to try VoG although would be rookies :)
XboxGT: PmBuZz
On most evenings. On now :)
 
Done Vog a few times, still need to learn how to use the relic tho :) and am happy to run it if your ever low on numbers.

Also I generally solo run the nightfall and weekly with both my warlocks on Tuesday evenings so feel free to just join my fireteam if you need it.

PSN ID is RelevantFluid

Here is alink to a thorough guide to VoG (doesnt include the changes to Atheons teleport ( now random members rather than three furthest away).

Also you can cheese the templar by hiding near the lightwell and using grenades (lock solar is best) to push him backwards off the ledge.

Edit to the above. Turned on my ps4 and saw this


So off to be repaired it goes. I am also clearly addicted as I am already working out how many shards/energy/coins etc this is going to cost me through missing dailys, weeklys and nightfalls.
 
The one thing that would utterly make this game for me would be a horde mode where you and up to 5 friends stand your ground against an onslaught of increasingly difficult enemies. Each wave gets harder or adds more enemies, starting with dregs and goblins, adding in a few captains, then wizards, then ultra knights, ogres, strike bosses. Add RNG burn choices to different waves to keep mixing it up. Every 5 waves increases your loot worth upon dying and the rounds keep going until everyone wipes, so clear 5 waves and everyone gets a blue engram, clear 30 everyone gets an exotic engram. Defend the warsat does this to an extent, but it's nowhere near long enough and having a dedicated mode for it would be awesome.

That sort of happens now when you get a message that the enemy is invading (or something similar). I have had it happen to me in the rocketyard and the other area past where you first meet the hive (I can't remember the name). Enemies constantly spawn and get harder and harder until you are facing shielded yellow bar shielded knights, yellow bar wizards and reaver captains. If there are multiple high level characters in the area (thus the game adapts the spawns accordingly) it can get mental.

They need to take this and adapt it into a new public event (perhaps only triggered if there are enough guardians in the area). As you say adapt the RNG rewards to be based on how many waves you survive.


I finally got to level 29 on my main Warlock. That was a bit of a grind as I traded in the last of my Helium for marks, to buy armour, to break for shards.... Yeah you guessed it, I needed helium to upgrade my armour along with shards... URGH!

On my helium farming run I took down the fallen walker solo but **** that was tough. I don't know if this is normal but he happened to be flanked by solar shielded shanks, yellow bar Vandals and a Captain... :confused: I was so focused on not dying to the walker, I died twice to the shanks.

Also played quite a bit with a friend to get our secondary (my third) characters up to level 20. My third Warlock character now switches between level 24 and level 29 depending on which Warlock has the armour. I Solo'd the Weekly heroic on my "new" 29 Warlock which was refreshingly easy (compared to running it in a 3 man fireteam). I got cocky at the end though and died right when the boss had a couple of shots left... It's funny running a level 29 Warlock which only has half the character abilites unlocked - no self revive here! Luckily my friend dropped in at the end (for the third run - the second time I rocketed myself in the face... :o) to provide an assist.

Depending on the Strike, I will be running the Weekly Heroic and Nightfall on all characters. Feel free to join me if my fireteam is not already maxed. My level 27 hunter may struggle a bit (I prefer my Warlock(s) for Strikes) hence my next main objective is building shards for her armour.

I will also be running the daily heroics on all there characters so again feel free to join me if there is space. I need dem shardzzzzz :eek::)
 
Got 50 shards sitting waiting for the last piece of the puzzle to drop - a raid chest piece :(
I actually need the Energies more to upgrade me weapons!
 
Any raids going on in the next few days? I've got a L29 Titan and I wouldn't mind getting the raid goodies for this week if possible.

Xbox or PS4?

I'm thinking about doing the raid if I can get enough people together on the PS4. I guess it would be worth doing after Tuesday's reset?

You'll have to bare with my n00by-ness. I've not attempted a raid yet.

I'd be up for that raid - I am raid n00b too. As would my fried thinking about it as he hasn't done the raid either.

OweO - Level 29 Warlock (Sunsinger or Voidwalker I don't mind)
Phipal - Level 28 Titan

EDIT: PS4

How many characters do you have? I actually don't have enough shards as I'm juggling 3 characters. I also like upgrading exotic armour for different occasions - e.g. PvP Helm and a PvE Chest, maybe that's why I never seem to have enough.
 
If you are raid noobs I know it is pointing out the obvious but do try to ensure each player has at the least a quick read of some guide... Raiding is prob the most fun thing to do if your in a group of people you know can be a great laugh and getting Aethon down as a new group together is good sense of achievement etc done it a couple of times now with a new group that was setup and it gets quicker eachtime but still has it's funny moments... usually the large vast cliff jump gets someone raging for everyone else to laugh at :)
 
unless you get yourself a raid sherpa or two in the group who has done it before and can show you the ropes / carry you a bit :)

That's usually the best way.

Just the one bud - I don't have time to start levelling up another character!.
I picked up an exotic helmet for my Hunter, got 2 raid gear (gloves and boots) on my first raid run - all maxed out on Level 29 within a week back then.

Since then it's been like four weeks, 5-6 raid runs and I still can't get that last bit of gear to hit Level 30 :(

Getting a bit sick of it all now! - I've got an exotic Chest piece aswell just in case I get a raid helmet sat waiting too.

Only place the helmet drops is defeating Atheon on hard. Unless you're doing the raid on hard reguarly, probably best to use your exotic and hope for the gauntlets.

Already got the gauntlets bud - its the chest piece or helmet I need :(

Will have to try Atheon on hard for the helmet. Is it the same for the chest piece?
