From what I've heard, you absolutely have to have Counterbalance on Spare Change. By default it has an annoying recoil that pulls to the left, meaning the burst goes vertical and horizontal rather than just vertical with most other PRs. Counterbalance fixes that but it means you lose out on Headseeker.

Yup its recoil is just plain odd. Even with counter balance there is something about it which feels a little odd.

Hmm, I'll give it a bash in Iron Banana and see how it goes.....we'll get the Messenger sooner or later!

oweneades · 28 Jul 2015 at 14:44

Bad Juju for me

Not I just need to remember NOT to ******* reload after kills...

Greboth · 28 Jul 2015 at 14:50

I do like Iron Banana being on, gets more people playing PvP which is always good. I have got my Suros emblem and chatterwhite ready

I got my warlock up to level 5 last Iron Banana so think I will glitch for the etheric light and then focus on my hunter and titan. I cba to try grind through 3 characters up to level 5.

oweneades · 28 Jul 2015 at 14:53

I am going to try the same on Pigtails. No point running her through if I get the stuff quickly. I can then focus on Bluey and Moody.

Honestly though, if it is a laggy mess like last time (far worse than previous instances) I will just play ES:O instead.

mid_gen · 28 Jul 2015 at 15:38

I'll just run my warlock to 5 I think, might blast to 3 on the others later in the week. Not even bothering running NFs on my other chars atm.

Usual procedure then, OCUK IB party, join up whenever

oweneades · 28 Jul 2015 at 16:24

I'm only running NF's if the mrs wants to. I don't need anything from the game that can drop from NF's which is a shame in a way.

Yeah I should be on later.

Dannyb01y · 28 Jul 2015 at 16:37

Is IB 5 or 6pm?

Got some New Monarchy gloves with INT/DIS, pulse rifle reload and increased melee speed stashed Got the exil boots yesterday with DIS/STR and heavy ammo.

I will give that a look, not checked out many vendor stuff and I have 200 points on all 3 toons. FWC also have a decent helm that I might pick up.

Represent. I need to join the clan too so it fits in even better.

Sadly not a vendor roll, got them from a package. Think FWC is the only faction with INT/DIS still?

IB kickoff is 6PM GMT still I believe.

Fallen god · 28 Jul 2015 at 17:10

Yeah just had a look, no other does. I do need a new helmet I just use my IB one which just 1 good PVP perk and status are low 50s, high 40s. Also if someone can let me in the group I can set it as my clan.

Yas786 · 28 Jul 2015 at 19:06

Anyone fancy a nightfall run then maybe a poe 34 or 35?? Could really do with some etheric light plus I've never done a poe lvl 35 yet. Got a gally that's more or less levelled up.

I'll be online around 9-ish if anyone wants to do the nightfall and some poe.

Phog · 28 Jul 2015 at 20:03

Incredibly I've managed to rupture the tendons in one of my fingers so maybe I'll have to have a destiny break for a bit :mad:

I need to do a 35 at some point dude, maybe we can get Jay or some other high levelled kind soul to help out the squishy hunters !

Fallen god · 28 Jul 2015 at 23:37

Running IB with Messenger, its better then TLW, and close too Thorn just a great all round weapon. Really need to get my hands on a hopscotch before TTK.

Guys, I'll be around tomorrow night if you've got no-one else for a 34 or 35. I'll need to do the NF first mind you.

Ouch, how you manage that

Gave mine a quick roll with 3rd eye, lightweight, glass half full just to see how it goes. Definitely has a bit of pull up to the left but quite manageable. As a poor man's Messenger it will definitely do for now.

Running .25 and P&T = radar all the time, love it in IB

Just a freak accident. Got it caught and pulled it funny

Nice

I attempted to use my 55-AllFate last night but a combination of lag and entire teams using Thorn made me switch back to Hawk-awesome / Red Death.

I just couldn't seem to chain together a decent game last night (as in my own performance felt lacklustre).

Our fireteam did alright bar the last two games. Either something was going on or the lag was simply terrible. Direct rocket hits wouldn't kill them, golden gun took more than one shot to kill them, damage would appear 2-3 seconds after the hit marker, I was getting killed through walls based on my position and the kill cam (Down the steps outside B on Shores of time yet the kill cam showed the enemy on B itself). All in all very frustrating.
