Maybe need 1-2 people for full raid

1 person needed for raid

LOL. Okay. this vid provided enough hype to knock the sting of my puny weapons off and to return the hunger for the game to me. I guess I’ll be around when it’s time to hit the latest alien menace in the face.

The fuck?

earlier, I get two invites. against what should be possible, I ended up in both groups. It error’ed out and kicked me from both, only to let me back into the one group. :wtf: Meh. Ended up doing in Atheon pro-bono for a pug fireteam and had to bounce. I’m sorry Rock and whomever else was in the team. I’ll be on Tomorrow (Saturday) and if you need me then, I’ll jump in for free on Atheon’s ass, and upon the ass of all others who stand in the way.

Thanks to everyone, we finished our first guild raid. I’ll be trying to do Hard mode runs over the weekend.

okay so what the fuck is wrong with this game. im sure im not the only one experiencing this…

Just got off a heroic strike, and twice in a fucking row i used a green ammo pack since i had run dry, and it gives me no fucking ammo AND sets the ammo packs into 5 min cooldown.

i let the cooldown run out, went to use an ammo pack, and AGAIN it gives me no ammo, and starts cooldown timer.

this has happened to me a whole bunch since the game came out.

i also think that bungie needs to do something about the whole vanguard/crucible mark thing. upon starting a new warlock i immediately set him a FWC rep gainer. i now have 200 vanguard marks i cant even use because my vanguard mark is at 0, and of course to buy anything from FWC (or any of the other factions) you can only use crucible marks. they should change it so you can use either.

Did you die and try to use the ammo synth before respawning at the checkpoint (like during the screen that shows you kills/deaths/etc)? Because that will make you waste it. I’ve done it before a couple times, too, and it pissed me off. You have to wait until you spawn and start playing again or the ammo won’t be there and the synth is forever lost to the darkness.

It’s a frustrating glitch.

no both times i was just chilling behind cover and my character was alive.

Well shit man, that sucks. I’ve never had that happen yet.

So I was doing the Raid with my Titan and decided to use my Fist of Havoc with Death from Above to get across the platform puzzle after the Gorgon Maze. Instead I dropped a bubble in midair and fell to my death, after saying, “Hey guys, check this shit out!”

Pretty embarrassing move on my part. Forgot I had Defender selected as my subclass.

That’s the “DrCrispy93” character that bungie has been pushing for their ads. You can get an idea of the stats of some of the new gear etc from his profile, so that’s cool. Wouldn’t mind that rocket launcher. :slight_smile:

Update coming tomorrow. Most likely the Exotic changes.

So I picked up an exotic bounty over the weekend.

First had to do 5 strikes w/o dying - easy enough, didn’t even have to cheese it. But now I have to get a +25 k/d ratio in Crucible.

I hate Crucible.

At least it doesn’t have to come in one game, just a cumulative ratio. The rest of the bounty tasks are fairly easy - doing a weekly or Nightfall strike, then buying 50 special weapon ammo packs (12.5k glimmer).

I wasn’t a fan of crucible until i got The Last Word. It’s fun to use and really good

Patch Notes. Tons of stuff…

Read up here:

Some note worthy changes:

No more Templar cheese
Exotics are now upgraded via Exotic shards, Xur will sell these shards, dismantling exotics also gives them.
Relic Iron, Spinmetal, Spirt bloom, helium now given as rewards for Daily Heroic and patrol bounties. They can also be bought with vanguard and crucible marks.
Cryptarch rep gains lowered, but rank up packages now have increased chance of legendaries.
Exotic weapon balance changes.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yay no i have a reason for using my thorn and bad juju… sucks about the templar though… I would of liked it that you could see the progression of your factions by going into the details of the faction class items.

The Thorn and Bad Juju buffs are pretty generous. Now I have a reason to do patrol bounties again.

Motherfucker! I just sharted, I mean sharded, my extra Helm of Inmost Light last night and got three ascendant sharts, I mean shards. If I had waited one more day I would have gotten a free Exotic shart! I mean shard. God dammit anyway!

I did a couple laps around my old Spirit Bloom farm to test the Bad Juju’s new meter build. My Juju is missing the last upgrade bubble. The meter build is even better when paired with the right Exotic Armor, which I did not use, like the the Knucklehead Helmet. It seems to be a much better weapon for mobs, still sucks versus bosses.

I was about to be upset that I was going to need to buy 3 of those 7 coin shards since I am normally just sitting on ascendant materials for a weapon I really like. But only needing one period for the last part isn’t so bad. They are trying to tempt me to play this again. Which will probably end up working. Unrelated I have still yet to see an exotic bounty and have had this game on launch. Also, I have 3x patience and time, 2 praedyth(sp) revenge, hawkmoon,last word, universal remote, red death, icebreaker and truth. I really can’t complain since I got the hand cannons I wanted.

I’m glad I can buy materials with vanguard marks. Just wish they added it sooner. My main has been capped at 200 for months, and there wasn’t a good way to spend them since I needed to level vanguard to 3 to buy a weapon. Problem is I was leveling factions the whole time.
