Hmm finally got an engram from ToC at 310, been terrible this week! 310 Jade Rabbit....decent gun but tempted to infuse it into my 304 smite of merain...decisions decisions. Would be useful for HM but then as soon as I get a harrowed version it'll be ditched.

I guess I can infuse it back into my 296 jade rabbit if I really want to.

Surely if your current SoM has a better perk than the harrowed version you would just infuse the latter into it? I certainly would as my SoM has firefly.

mid_gen · 27 Oct 2015 at 10:39

Mine has firefly too...depends if the harrowed stats are any different, or is it just cosmetic?

oweneades · 27 Oct 2015 at 11:01

Cosmetic (black instead of white) and attack rating are the only changes.

The last perk on each gun is random, other than that they will be identical.

I had to laugh at some of the masks.. Really silly. And the screams in the tower are rather disconcerting.. :eek:

[SKR]Phoenix · 27 Oct 2015 at 12:49

Damn you RNG, DAMN YOU TO HELL!

I'm not a raider, I simply don't have the time, so I have to slowly work my light level up (which I don't actually mind).

So getting exotics is quite exciting for me. Really felt lucky when Telesto dropped the other week. Over the weekend I managed to get 4 exotic engrams.... every single one turned into a Crest of Alpha Lupi! I already had a fully levelled one in use with 297 light. Somewhat annoyed at that. Worse still, one of them has a better perk (more scout ammo) which is great for me. So, I infuse my old one to gain this perk, but it's dropped my light level back to 295. Sigh!

Yas786 · 27 Oct 2015 at 12:55

All I get now is stupid armour exotic engrams, would like to at least get some weapon exotics. Today dropped a ToC and got a 310 mask of the 3rd man which isn't too bad as I had one originally at 290 so that was sharded.

Now that I'm 305 level, and the last 2 exotics that have dropped for me have been 310. But damnit I want a weapon exotic ffs lol

fez · 27 Oct 2015 at 13:21

I ran the raid last night and had 3-4 chances to get something over 300 to push me up from 299 light and all I get is mouldering shards.

I have about 5 exotic engrams waiting to decrypt and over 10 legendaries ready for when finally hit 300 light. Very frustrating.

There's no point holding on to legendaries - they can't decrypt above 300 and there's no difference in potential light level roll once you reach 300+. Even at 310, most legendaries I decrypt come out at ~280.

EDIT: Also, just checked your character. All you need to do to guarantee 300 is activate the Road to King's Fall request and complete the raid. You'll then get your 310 artifact. Rather than do all the bits needed to activate the quest, just get someone who's already done it to run through Fear's Embrace, King's of Decay, and Entropy's Pinnacle missions with you. You'll then get the Summoner's Circle mission which you can do on your own if you want, then the raid quest will activate. Those 4 missions take about 30 mins in total.

What do you mean? That legendaries cannot decrypt to above 300 even when you are over 300?

Yes that's exactly right. Although if I get a legendary that decrypts at 290 and above I usually infuse it with another weapon or armour to bring it up etc. But most of mine decrypt between 280-290ish and I just shard them for marks.

fez · 27 Oct 2015 at 14:48

Ok, cheers guys, I'll just keep the exotic engrams ready for that day when I finally hit 300.

Correct

The only way to get 300 + light legendaries is from the Raid, or as Nightfall Tier Rewards from the PVP / PVE activity (PVP you have to complete all the weekly bounties once you've done the quest to unlock them)

Yas786 · 28 Oct 2015 at 16:10

Finally got a 310 exotic weapon drop on the nf this week, suros regime at 310 which means I have now sharded my 290 one that dropped for me a few weeks back.

Greboth · 28 Oct 2015 at 21:37

NF has been nice to me this week, got a 302 ghost which was meh but the others dropped 19 strange coins so 2 maybe 3 exotics worth of ToC's and a 310 supercell

oweneades · 29 Oct 2015 at 07:58

You finally got your Supercell!

The NF I did with Drunzer and Psycho after the raid was nice to me:

- Darkblade helm with a really nice roll (281 attack but I can infuse)
- Exotic Helm engram (3oC) - turned into a 310 Obsidian Mind
- 308 attack arc Shotty - crap roll but my Blank Spindle thanks it.

Didn't get a massive amount from the raid bar a 318 ghost. It allows me to be 311 with a more balanced setup or 312 with ToM. Can't complain really.

mid_gen · 29 Oct 2015 at 08:57

Damn you, I have been after that helm for ages....done sunless cell 30-40 times now :|

Raid was pretty good. 315 RL, 314 ghost, 311 mark, and a 312 mark from oryx.

oHUTCHYo · 29 Oct 2015 at 10:22

OK I feel like a right plank for asking this, but here goes;

is there multiple attacks on the Warlock Stormcaller super? Several triggers seem to work but can't understand if they are one and the same or not?

Yup

I had some bounties to do on mars so tested it out and it is a fun gun to use. While I am glad I got it I would have preferred a 310 helmet as I really want to get my warlock up to 311. Hopefully my 19 SC worth of ToC will get my a helmet engram.

Have you been doing it on your titan

They are the same. I wondered that but the same box on the left drains regardless of which trigger you pull.

You don't want it. You look like a right fat head. I've got one but never use it. Looks no more stupid than the titan raid helm though ....
