lol itā€™s as if people donā€™t realize u can destroy those shields

also, u guys all know u do more damage when NOT zoomed in, right?

Been raping lately with fusion rifle. Got damn, no scopes with that are brutal

I hit lvl 20 yesterday. I just got my first legendary from a blue engram. Itā€™s a pulse rifle which is fine for pve, but sucks in pvp. I think Iā€™m going to go for New Monarchy gear since it specs toward intellect.

Iā€™m not going to rely on random drops to fill my inventory with legendaries, Iā€™m just going to grind rep and use the black merchant. Farming is better for weapon xp and cryptarch rank grinding. Apparently once you hit a certain rank with each faction and the cryptarch, they will send you legendary engrams everytime you rank them up.

I also prefer farming on the Moon instead of the cave. The moon seems to give faster weapon and motes of light XP. The Moon is also better for close to mid range weapons.

woo got my first legendary weapon finally. Its a sniper rifle which is awesome cos i totally suck at using them. it always amazes me how people can headshot me within a second of peeking round a corner from a mile away. i can never seem to figure the best places to use them from either.

Source?

this article says otherwise:

but Iā€™ve done testing. I do way more damage with a shotgun not aimed, versus aimed. Same with fusion. I can one shot with either with no scope, not with.

That doesnā€™t really make senseā€¦

Im a lvl 24, and i have nothing legendary.

:frowning:

try using the fusion rifle. If you aim it, youā€™ll generally do about half to 3/4 damage. No aiming, and uā€™ll one shot.

I notice it most with my pulse rifle.

I only have 1 legendary. I have two legendary pieces of armor, but theyā€™re for a hunter, so yeah :frowning:

Iā€™ll test it out in a bit. It just seemsā€¦weird. Youā€™d expect it to work the opposite way.

When you get equipment for a different class, what are you supposed to do with it? You canā€™t switch classes, you canā€™t transfer it between characters, you canā€™t trade/sell to other playersā€¦ What the hell?

Uh, you have a Chest that is accessible between all your characters.

you can trade items between characters. put it in the storage and then you can collect it with another character. your glimmer also transfers and im assuming stuff like motes of light and strange coins etc can also be transferred.

i also dont buy the whole weapons do more damage while not zoomed thing. i tested it on single player and the numbers that popped up were the same both ways.

Waitā€¦ What?

I thought that Vault was uselessā€¦ I couldā€™ve stored a bunch of shit for my Hunter instead of breaking them down?

Lol why would it even give you stuff for other classes if you couldnā€™t use it in some form or fashion.

I put a bunch of shaders and shit in there so my other classes can use them. Havenā€™t even found gear for a class Iā€™m not currently using.

Because Bungie doesnā€™t know how to MMO? Idkā€¦ I assume everything is a fuck up now lol.

You get stuff for other classes through Legendary Engrams only, I believe. Possibly the Blue ones as well.

That guy is an idiot. OF COURSE you should hip-fire with a Shotgun and ADS with everything else. Itā€™s not like youā€™re going to headshot somebody across the moon with a Sniper Rifle via hip-fire.

I just noticed that the Ghost sounds almost identical to Tom from Toonamiā€¦ Iā€™m halfway expecting it to segue into a new episode of Dragon Ball Z every time it talks now lol.

Yeah man its a Shotgun in a Bungie game. It has an effective range of MAYBE 3 feet. After that your buckshot vanishes into thin air

I just found a group of guys that already know how to xp & loot farm on Russia. GDLK

Get it while the gettin is good Bungie is def gonna patch this shit!

Iā€™ve been hearing about loot exploits and Iā€™m just hoping for the swiftest of patches. Most of us are progressing at a decently unified pace (people speaking of Legendary weapons at the same time). I donā€™t like seeing an exploit screw things up.

And caution: Bungie is infamous for not only shutting things like this down swiftly, but reversing any advantages gained from exploits. Go read the epic credit glitch threads on Bnet circa Halo Reach for great lulz and fair warning how seriously they take it.

Even if I wasnā€™t going by my own principles; I just wouldnā€™t do this in a Bungie game.
