So what does Str/int etc do? What do I need I'm a melee hunter.

Intellect reduces your super cooldown
Discipline reduces your grenade cooldown
Strength reduces your melee cooldown

You don't want to be in melee range at higher levels so int/dis is the way to go. Future War Cult faction, if you pvp, has those stats on its gear.

Man I hope I can actually get a team together for a Raid this weekend otherwise I'm probably shelfing this game for a while. Despite the numerous bad points about the game I still very much enjoy playing it and want to keep playing it - but nightfall/raids just seem so annoying to arrange and I feel like I can't access the content I've paid for because we all have busy schedules!!

Got 3 or 4 people together for Sat night so hopefully can find 2-3 more.

Queen nerf for shards is very annoying, but I guess I'm already Lvl 28 so it's not that big of a deal. I would however had liked to have used it to level up my other 2 classes.
As it stands, there is no way I'll ever have all 3 done - not even sure I'll ever max out even 1 to Lvl 30.

We finally did it guys!!

Nice, I really want to try and get this trophy when I finally hit 26/27.

How long did it take you guys in the end?

Blitz if your fire team is going to be all OcUK members and we can go for the trophy count me in. I'm hoping to get fully kitted up by Saturday night. I'm sure others from here will be up for the raid.

They are not OCUK members no, just a couple of my mates.
There were 6 of us but 3 of them have all but given up on the game due to how grindy it is. I convinced one of them last night to do some Queens's stuff to get to Lvl 26/27 quickly to join the Raid but not sure if he did.

I was out all night yesterday so never got online - the night where OCUK people were doing Raids. Half the people I know work shifts etc too. It's just a bit of a nightmare trying to get 6 people together for such a long period of time.


Saying that, I want to do the Raid in a clan too - so if you still want to join us feel free because there will be other Raids too and I'm even up for repeating this one with full OCUK clan. Once I've done it with my mates, I'll be more flexible on taking part as I can jump in with 5 others anytime. As I mentioned in the other thread, I just want to experience it with my mates first - which is making it awkward.
 
well, I keep getting DC'd and can't get back online now, so guess that's it for tonight.

I had that. First time was literally seconds from finishing Devils Lair for the first time. Low level team (8,8 and 9) and we seemed to take an age to do it. We were obviously all new to the game. When we saw the walker we just ran around for ages hoping it would go away :p

Anyway I couldn't even upgrade my stuff because I was getting a centipede disconnect every 10 to 60 seconds. Went away and read up on port forwarding, did that and then had a bleary eyed battle through Devils Lair again with no connection issues.

Really enjoyed playing through a whole mission with a couple of other randoms. The cave loot grind was a bit of a joke, glad that has been patched. I quite like the pace of loot coming from general missions but then I always think that rewards come too quickly in games these days. Like when I play Diablo with a mate once a week. We look at our loot and go "awesome.... awesomer.....even more awesome..... **** look at that!" So most of what you get is better but you never even use it!
 
Been away for training, having withdrawal symptoms and reading on the train last night that the Cave is now gone?

Where and what are people farming these days then? I'm Level 23, nearly 24. Can't wait for work to finish this afternoon!

I still have terrible terrible memories of Diablo 3 vanilla... Got Reaper of Souls too, killed the boss, then got bored. Haven't really given it another chance since then. I hear legendary drops are a LOT more common now, and it seems there is a tonne of end-game content now. Still, I hate the way the entire itemisation revolves around crit. If an item has no crit, you bin it. Zzz

Well the long winded "official" way is to grind vanguard / crucible marks, but tbh I wouldn't even bother with that seeing as these Queen bounties/missions are still throwing out legendaries at a high rate (although no more ascendant materials from dismantling).
 
Queen Bounties?!

I'm sorry, did these come out over the last 4 days then?
I am almost level 2 on FWC, so armour isn't an issue for me, just need the marks to buy items.
 
I think I'll be giving this game up once my one month PSN trial runs out, don't get me wrong it's not because I don't like it but because if I want to play this type of game (designed purely to waste your life doing the same monotonous things over and over in the hope of getting better gear) I'd sooner go back to playing WoW.

When the next expansion comes out they'll introduce all new better gear and these first few months of grinding will have been a complete waste of time, ad infinitum. That's how these games work.

I've had the same thought. At the moment I'm only level 21 and have a tonne of content to do - the only strikes I've done are Summoning Pits and House of Devils, so quite happy for now. If it ends up like WoW where you have to run these over and over again to grind a reward I'll give up. At the moment it looks like it is and I have a particular dislike for faction grinds.

What content they add to Destiny and how they do it will make or break the game for me. We need new story lines, public events etc not just new raiding zones. Sadly I guess this sort of content is expensive to develop and Activision aren't the sort to give stuff away for free. I know there's two expansions in development, so I guess I'll wait and see how much they cost and what they add, and when they will be released.
 
Xur is on the spaceport side this time. You can find him if you go past where the dead orbit vendor is and down the steps to the unused room.

Hes selling the helmet engram this time, as well as a warlock helm that increases survivability, a titan chest armor that speeds up res time and a hunter helm that allows you to maintain radar while aiming(which I think is pretty neat, probably the best of the bunch). The weapon on sale is the Suros Regime, which is an auto rifle which doest extra damage on the second half of the clip and fires slower but does more damage when aimed.
