first legendary drop and it decrypts to a blue :( Seriously that's not a fun mechanic.

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?

we had a go on Monday night and manage to get past the first boss after 4 hours and then Tuesday we had to start again because of the reset and downed the first boss first time and got to the last boss in about 4 hours. Then last night we picked up where we left off and downed him after a couple of wipes. Communication is key and so is knowing your role. Team work is the biggest key factor and I'm sure the other guys would agree.
 
When does Xur appear today?

Also, what is the point of the queens quests now? If you can't deconstruct the armour for useful stuff then once you have the chest plate and helmet you are just getting absolutely pointless legendary items.

He's there right now, look a few posts up. Nobody is forcing you to do the queens quests, the bounties are still worth doing for the experience and rep if you no longer need the armour. I will still do them even though I don't need any of the gear.
 
What this game really needs is crafting.

People would find the ascendant shards a lot more manageable if they had a set path to get them.

50 Helium Coils + 50 Spirit Bloom + 1 mote of light = 1 shard (as an example of the sort of recipe)

At least then people would have a set fixed route to get them - and not have to rely on RNGesus

well, I keep getting DC'd and can't get back online now, so guess that's it for tonight.
Ah wondered where you got to - mentioned your name to another OcUKer who is after doing the Nightfall strike too - check your PSN messages :). Can help if you need a third but after raiding...

Seeing as Ascendant Energy is just as rare and important as shards, that seems a terrible deal :p
 
Quite tempted by the auto rifle from Xur.

Just bought the exotic engram and its decoded to a helmet for a warlock!!! Arghhhh

Obviously crafting wouldn't just apply to Ascendant shards, a properly implemented crafting system would enable you to craft a lot of items from others.

The recipe for ascendant shards could even call for the base resources to be crafted into new resources which in turn have to be crafted into new resources which you could then use to craft the shards and energy etc..

That auto rifle from Xur is lovely.

The impact on it for an auto rifle is insane. Definite purchase from me. Although I do want the Titan defender chest piece as well :(
 
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.
Is that fire slower but harder perk the first or second one to unlock? Had a rare Galahad-E that had it and it ruined the whole gun for me...

Hmm will check out the Warlock Helmet as I think those and the Chest pieces seem worthwhile as exotic pieces - though trying to decide if theres any point in having more than 1 exotic armour due to the restriction (also my exotic Chest has been fully upgraded). Destiny so far doesnt strike me as a game that requires more than one loadout...

Yeah, its the same fire slower but deal more damage ability, the other ability redeems it somewhat though. I still think having multiple exotic armours is worth it as each can fulfil a role. What else am I going to buy with my strange coins :p ?
 
Destiny's really annoying me :( I've only had eight legendaries, all of which have turned into rares!.

Been stuck at level 24 for about ten days now...

Anyone want to do some strikes with me then feel free to add me on XBL: RusTyy117

Exotic armour for the other two character spots? Thats whats tempting me as Ive already got a Titan legendary helmet and legs so might get the Titan exotic and start a Titan...

can somebody post a photo of the Suros regime stats ?

Only stats I can find are from beta and wonder if they've changed since then ?

I don't know how to post a photo from taking a screenshot but its the same as any other high impact auto rifle I think.
