That sounds like the Titan exclusive gun you get from hitting rank 2 on the Gunsmith and triggering the quest line.

Decent enough but prefer both my Dead Orbit and Vanguard Shotguns (the latter has a perk which gives a chance to return ammo on a kill - triggers often enough to give me a 7 round "mag" every time).

It is. he's talking about the Immobius.
 
FFS. The exotic sword quest is hard. But we finished the strike. I was dead when one of the bosses was killed. So I didn't get my sword. So now I have to do the whole ******* thing again.
 
Oh and here's a valuable tip for exotic sword questers - try and form a party where you are all going with the same elemental sword type.

It's the sunless cell strike and you have to defeat Alak-Hul and your sword's specific elemental boss baddy within 30 seconds. (They have to die within 30 seconds of each other.) Problem is we all had different sword types meaning we had to keep all three smaller bosses alive. If everybody only had void sword, for example, you could despatch two of the smaller ones and just keep the void one and Alak-Hul alive.
 
Just noticed that the 100.io has support for private groups now. Could be a better way to organise groups than trying to manage this thread, gives you notifications of proposed events/times, reminders....also way better for finding randoms than the LFG sites. Just look for a public game starting soon, put your name down, party up at the time, off you go. Has a karma system which is really helpful for avoiding douchebags.

If anyone does want to give it a go...signup for the PS4 group is here :

That's me done. Not with the exotic sword quest. The game. I've had my fill. Not interested in raiding any more so I've probably reached my end game.

I'd do the same. I'd take one of my 1000 Yard Stares up to 308, buy a load more of the 300 Black Spindles and upgrade all my special weapons to 300, and have a 300 Black Spindle as well. I have exotic shards coming out of my ears, and about 40,000 glimmer sat in the vault, so I can buy a truck load of them. I'd even be tempted to run it a few times to try to get a 310 Spindle on each character.

Yeah, I did that last time I have my 1000 Yard at 308 right now, and everything else I use is at 300. Just wanna push the 100 yard to 310 now :D.

I already have it but I want to run it again just to try and get the ship which probably won't drop, there's something wrong with me I think.

Oh yeah ship, TBH it wasn't too bad last time, the 1st run we was close got the boss down and just got overwhelmed with crap, 2nd run was pretty smooth I'm sure we had over 1min left.

If you see me on it tonight feel free to jump in. I will likely be making runs at it all night until I get it.

Not 100% sure but I've read you only get drops the first run, 1 person on reddit said they helped maybe 6-8 others get through and never saw a single drop, could just be unlucky though.

I think you can only get it once per character but I could be wrong. Looks like there is going to be a patch today at 6pm so I'd expect the Spindle to be patched down before I can get it. Shame, but I have a 300 shotgun I don't really like so even if I only get a 290 Spindel I can level that to 300 pretty quickly.

I didnt find the farming materials too bad with a helium ghost and nightstalker on (for improved radar to see where they on; alternatively I used the hunter-specific sniper rifle on gunslinger to farm up ability kills whilst looking for materials). But the ability kills was a total bore and I think universally is considered one of the worst grinds ever from Bungie (have to do it three times for all the swords!!).

I tried to make it go quicker by playing through the old quest lines with double tripmines and double throwing knives (that instantly reset on precision kills).

Farming materials took me an hour or so and i ended up with nearly 200 filaments while doing it. The ability kills was dead easy, took about 30 minutes on we've woken the hive going up about 6-8% per reset. It was at 36% from punching things while farming then i managed to get it to 100% while waiting for my raid team to finish the nightfall.

So fresh from our Oryx defeat yesterday, our group set about completing the Raid again tonight.

We did the entire thing from beginning to end and bossed it in 2 hours 45 minutes

Great Team everybody, we worked like a well oiled machine last night and pulled together. Great fun.

P.S. Kris. Most kills baby !!!

What can i say, i'm a brawler haha. Look at my melee, grenade and super kills! Shortest kill distance too, needless to say i run right into the thick of it and just smash my way about! hahaha.

Thats a shame I guess I'll be happy with my 300 spindel. I've got 3 extra herafters at 300 so I can use those to boost some stuff.
 
Anyone on PS4 about this afternoon to give black spindle daily a bash? I'm 295 light so should be able to be of use!
 
More cool stuff on the dreadnaught...

Appears that if you use a Command Beacon Code and Wormsinger rune at the same time, the ultras duke it out and it it triggers something afterwards...don't think anyone's figured it out.

I have a Wormsinger Rune, Skyburner's Deployment Codes, and a Skyburner's Command Beacon. Be keen to investigate sometime....
