The companion app is crap it only lets you do 1 weapon at a time. My phone is also currently out of order. I'll be posting it to insurance company for repair tomorrow. So it's currently only tablet/laptop available and DIM only works on laptop.
My PC and PS4 share the same screen which makes it a PITA to keep flicking inputs. So I'll just need to have the laptop beside me.
Destiny Item Manager lets you create loadouts.
I have a loadout for VOG, another for Crota, POE, PVP, Banner, etc.
Basically you can load any character in game. Go to DIM and select a loadout and within 10 seconds all the weapons you require transfer to the character.

Also worth using http://www.ironbanner.info/. Helps a lot with working out how many games you need to win, when to hand in bounties etc. As the win bonus increases as the week progress 
That's not a bad shout actually.
I've got a few raid weapons that I'd like to max out and fatebringer is going to drop for me this weekend so that'll need done.
I'll probably be down for the Nightfall if we haven't done it before the Raid
Sounds good to me, if u have done it by the time I get online then just let me know.
I'll probably wait until you come online before attempting it, it doesn't look like we have much interest in a Raid tonight . Jay is probably still in an alcoholic coma tbf
Plenty 3rd party apps around that do loadouts. One I use on iOS is just called 'loadouts'.
Goods runs on IB last night. Got to rank 2 on both Pigtails and Moody in a few games with all bounties put in. Did the "glitch" on Bluey which allowed me to buy my etheric light and all armour I wanted (thus no need to run her through at all as she was rank 5 from the last IB).
The lag both in the IB and in the game in general last night was horrific. Some games were ok (probably because we all had the same issue) but others were basically unplayable. In most cases the drops from the previous round showed up half way through the next game. Bounties and rep were taking an age to update (to the point where in my first game I went on a ten kill streak but the game didn't register my Iron Wrath bounty until I had 13-14 kills) and in some cases still haven't updated (I still have a medallion despite winning my last match?!). Fingers crossed tonight will be better.
On a side note I was messing about a bit with different weapons and found both Pest Control Matrix with Focused fire and The Stranger's rifle are both acceptable primaries. The latter was doing around 28 criticals with laser like stability. I was finally able to get comfortable with Red Death as well which was nice. I have always liked the gun but could never get on with it in PVP before now.

Was unplayable for me last night, was just frustrating and boring. We also had some weird stuff happening in other activities, PoE 35 rewards being awarded during the second round, crucible rewards appearing mid match, what made it more weird is that it was for the actual match we were half way through!
Bounties were randomly being completed even if we didn't meet the requirements, easiest 10 kill streak ever when you don't actually need to kill someone haha.

Some very odd things going on in game in general for me. Taking weapons out of the vault took ages for them to appear on my character.
One funny thing did happen though. We dropped into one game an immediately won. The other team either left or got disconnected before we "landed". Easiest game I have ever had!

IB was unplayable last night, only got 1 medallion from 3 losses, won a match and didnt get any XP and still have the medallion, handed in bounties and got no xp and was getting kicked about every other game due to anteater.
Edit: Shame really as wont be on much for next few days so was hoping for a good start.

It was very strange yesterday. I ran through a quick NF with Pearson and he got an exotic drop notification half way through the strike. Thought it was just an error but once we'd finished there was the exotic on the rewards screen.
IB was very strange too. Rewards dropping half way through the next match, anteater errors etc.

Yeah it was indeed a bit strange. I remember Oweo saying that matador had dropped mid way through a game then when we returned to the tower after we all had a matador.
