*** The Official Destiny Thread (now includes 2.0 and TTK) ***

I'm going to play this again as I sold The Division. I had some token to make my character instant 30, is that per account or per character? I got the legendary edition a while back.
 
Eurgh, exposure and trickle with melee kills bonus in CoE... so much for soloing it this week :(

I would have thought that this would probably work as a good combo:

titan + relentless + gift of light (throw into that a melee energy boost on orb pickup/grenade kill) + no backup plans + shotgun.

titan can create orbs for rest of team then tether, rinse and repeat.



Three titans could wreak havoc with continuous force barrier and just creating orbs for days.

Would this be the equivalent build of void warlock + nothing manacles from last week (and we know how much fun we had with that build :p) ?
 
I have to say I am liking the way Bungie is thinking about getting us to use different weapons/armour builds for CotE rather than just going with (use x,y,z weapon and you instant win)

It means we finally have a reason to use all those exotics we collect rather than using one specific exotic all the time.

I'm waiting for the week that airborne is the buff and I can finally use my Empyrean Bellicose to it's full potential. I just hope they don't put grounded on at the same time.
 
You can take a noob character from Level 1 to 40 in a weekend with some dedication. Or a day if you're insane. Not that I've done that.....:o
 
I'm more in it to enjoy the ride so to speak, I wont be good enough to get accepted into end game raids so the levelling up is pretty much the game for me.

Once you hit the LL recommendation then peeps off here can pull you through the first 2 raids without any problems. They're the most fun (especially VoG) anyway! Crota is a hoot now, it's like a super-strike!

Pretty sure the VoG requirements are quite low, about LL 160ish?

Are you running on PS4 or Xbone? If the former I would be more than happy to Raid with you. :) (If the latter, well, I could you words of encouragement from my non existant guardians... :p).

TehBlueBear - Are you going to be grinding IB this week (I understand it is back)?

If so, mind if I tag along for a few games?

Had a quick blast on control last night and had a massive amount of fun with my First Curse / Vacancy Fusion combo. The Vacancy roll is just downright dirty (it does help that fusions are all I use in my secondary slot in PVP)!

That's cool, I just want to see the content, I'm not that fussed if I get items or whatnot.

I am on PS4 yes, I'm just no good at shooters with a control pad, so I don't want to be a hindrance for groups who take it seriously (I do try to I'm just rubbish). I'm going to start a new character tonight as I forgot everything and was only level 13. Thanks for the offer though, I shall add you for future :)

There's plenty of great PS4 guys on here, they'll take you through the raids no problems. Us non-existant Xbox peeps (:p) would have as well! :D

Honestly I play the game to have fun. Taking it seriously is right down at the bottom of my priorities list . :)

Main thing for Vog & King's Fall is practice your jumping.

I doubt it will take you very long to get the basics down.

So here's a curious thing. Just finished some patrol and noticed that IB had started. Went to the tower to do some admin etc. and went to have a look at what wares Saladin had this time. I noticed that I'm still rank 5, it's kept the rank that I had from the last IB. Curious, it's like the glitch you used to be able to do except I didn't do any hanging around in space like you used to have to do.

Gonna do some matches and see if it resets.

Edit. It's reset me now. Still managed to snag the launcher he had though!

Edit 2. Reading around it looks like that happened to a load of people, rank reset after the event started.

Finally after about 6 mths of making my Titan, I've managed to get the bugger levelled up to 40...didn't take me long altho I had a friend get me from level 25 to 34 so I took over from there.

Lots of stuff I need to do ie quests but my hunter is sitting at 331 so I just use my 334 Mida, 332 1k stare and 325 raid machine gun on my Titan. Gets me to around 290 light, if I got better armour then I'd easily hit 300+. Probably run a few normal kf raids at the weekend to get my light level up so I can hard raid twice a week with the lads I usually raid with.
 
Good run on Iron Banana last night. Good to see the end game drops now factor in your light level. Got a pair of boots and both bonds. :)

Still trying to find a weapon load out which works for me. Went ham in one with First Curse and then couldn't hit anything the next game...

Will hit rank 3 tonight on Pigtails an then switch to my other characters to get the quick rank up.
 
How hard is it to hit IB rank 3 for the artifact? I'm light level 300, had one game and finished top so I was fairly impressed with myself.

The gear drops in crucible/IB worth it for gearing up nowadays?
 
There is a calculator somewhere on the Destiny reddit but it won't too long if you focus on completing the weekly / daily bounties and get a decent streak of wins (or at least no more than 5 losses in a row).

It is much easier to rank up later in the week (Sat/Sun/Mon specifically) as the rep bonus is massively increased.

End of match legendary rewards now take into account your light level so when you see a drop you should gain from it (or at least have infusion fuel).

The rewards are taken from the inventory of Lord Saladman so will see:
- both class items (assuming PS4)
- Boots
- Rocket Launcher w/random roll
- Hakkon's Hatchet Auto w/random roll

:)
