Destiny - Videogame Thread + SRK Clan SignUp

Bungie forums are going beserk LOL.

Folks have really convinced themselves that skill earned them a Gally instead of a random dice roll.

You gotta love the elitists - especially in a game like Destiny. They take absurdity to an all new level.

Lol forreal. Its a hilarious read tbh making the work day go by faster. Still cant believe they sold it though, it’s about time. I think what a lotta people dont realize though is that after you get it…there really isnt much else lol

After you get it content becomes trivial. I was telling a fireteam I was with a couple weeks ago that once I got Gally, nothing really bothers me. My exact quote:

I’m hoping Bungie doesn’t add another super uber weapon in TTK. I actually enjoy using Truth, Dragon’s Breath (which is a very strategic and fun weapon IMO), etc.

he sure is.

Yeah Gally was THE trump card in any game mode, PvE or PvP.

Ballerhorn GOT. And I also just got my Thorn leveled up. About to cause as much havoc as I can in PVP until TTK

Welp now all my characters have OP Exotics. Thorn, TLW and Ghorn.

Now if Xur would only sell Ice Breaker again…

Finally got a super solid roll on my Conduit a few days ago. Running that passive-aggressive mid range game in Control and Rumble with my Frenzy.

Gonna try to sit on this playstyle for a while and really work on mastering it. Very fun and very mobile without playing too risky.

Congrats to everyone who finally has a Horn~

Close to finishing up my Lord of Wolves! Can’t wait! :smiley:

P.S. - Spent this entire expansion looking for Techeun Force and finally got it today–only to find out it’s a not-so-amazing gun. Shame. D:

its funny you can tell all the people who have just got the ghorn… there has been a surge in its usage in pvp… we were playing against a team and when it came to heavy it was nothing but ghorns from them lol… we still killed the shit out of them but it was funny.

Gally isn’t a good choice for PVP. From my experience, a rocket launcher is a rocket launcher in the Crucible. Any Legendary with tracking will do. I’m not putting down Thorn for Gally.

I wouldn’t say it isn’t a good choice for PvP. It’s a fine choice, but there are others that are just as good or better and can be used more often that take up the exotic slot. Gjallarhorn in PvP is a fine choice for those going without an exotic primary.

As a PvP launcher, it’s a pretty good deal–tracking, horseshoes and tracking cluster bombs. A great launcher, to be sure.

This is why Gally isn’t a good choice. The extra damage you get from Gally doesn’t matter since a rocket is a one-hit kill regardless.

Essentially you’re using your exotic slot for useless tracking cluster bombs.

Got back on for the first time in a while to get my Gally the other night. Also managed to get my Warlock to 33 and my Hunter from 24 to 27.

Now I just need to do Trials, or at least PoE lvl 33. Still looking for some people who are willing to run that shit on PS3.

I cannot wait for the day Xur sells Thorn. Holy shit, I will be crying in a fit of laughter. The salt will be so real.

You know Gjallarhorn clusters are capable of KOing a max armor/max health guardian that has managed to avoid a shell and its blast radius, yes? You can net a kill from the shell and if anyone was even in the general vicinity of the victim, clusters are in their ass. If you fire a shell into B at Shores of Time and someone manages to escape the shell and the blast, they are extremely likely to get picked up by clusters–that’s the approximate tracking radius.

They circumvent non-perfect Blink distance/timing and natural stage cover. You pretty much need some sort of overshield or a sprint perk to survive them. You can barely run and you damn sure can’t hide. If you don’t value the launcher and its perks, that’s fine, but to say it’s a bad choice if you look at all launchers objectively is pretty out there. It’s very good and is surpassed by only the best launchers.

To be clear, my point wasn’t about whether Gjallarhorn as an exotic should directly compete with other exotics for the exotic slot. I was saying that, should you want to take it into PvP match as your rocket launcher of choice, it would be a good choice to make. Gjallarhorn is a good choice for PvP.

I prefer the truth.

I would take truth for a larger map like widow’s court and gjallarhorn for anything else. It shouldn’t be your priority as an exotic choice but if you aren’t using an exotic primary or secondary then why not use one of the exotic rockets.

My trials/semi-serious pvp setup is usually the messenger with matador 64 or efrideet’s spear, plus an exotic rocket depending on the map. If you are trying to play rocket sniper with proximity detonation then truth is ideal, but if you are playing the rocket guessing game around corners then gjallarhorn can give you the edge.

Ghorn is strong in trials since people will exotic switch during heavy round, or they use a messenger. Tracking rockets are not all that in pvp. You want high velocity and blast radius paired with proximity detonation. Which both the Truth and Ghorn have. Ghorn does have proximity detonation, but it’s not listed. Radaghast Fury, Ash Factory and the Fear are the best purple Launchers, with the right rolls.

Speaking of Trials, I pulled my 3rd Scholar out of the Mercury Chest. 4th trip to the light house, 3 of the same loot :#
The Cryptarch or Raid shitting on you sucks, but going 9-0 multiple times and getting the same reward is on a whole different level of bullshit. Prior drops need to affect future drop rates.

Sent the request.

And approved.

truth is MY SHIT!!! of course i have always been biased since i never owned a gjally till last friday, but fuck it, Truth still da best PVP.
