This. Even if it's sub-optimal, people should be able to *try* the raid without having to wrangle 6 people in and coordinate schedules and whatnot.
yeah i've gotten crazier long distance shots with the fusion rifle than the shotgun so far.
one of the reasons i'm stoked for bladedancer is that long distance slide. i'm still not great with it (stupid toggle crouch!), but i will be one day!
mainly for getting in close range quickly for melee and/or shotgun. the fact that it changes your height can make landing headshots more difficult too. also, its a good way to get away too.
I understand that feeling as well, friend. ;(
i have literally completed only one match since friday.
They're eventually going have to pull a WoW and make a looking for raid/LFR mode where people can just be grouped together for an easier version of the raid. Even if the loot is not as good, it would be nice to be able to see it without a ton of coordination all the the time. Then there should be a heroic mode that gives better loot and has more complicated encounters for the hand picked 6-man teams.
This happens to my one buddy constantly!
It's hilarious bc he's on top of the scoreboard almost every singe time.
Yeap. It's basically a substitute for melee range combat, anything further and it's basically pointless.

The shotgun range isn't laughable though. You can get one shotted from 15 feet away with some. Considering everybody can have one, that is way too high. Sorry to mention Halo, but the shotgun there required point blank range, was a pickup weapon, and was still considered very powerful.
I used a pulse rifle for about 5 games last night; was getting headshots almost all the time but was still getting taken down quickly by people with AR's from a distance. My k/d ratio is about 2/1 btw, so I don't have a bitter "I suck and everything that kills me is OP" mentality. I don't even use shotgun, the fusion rifle is still viable and way more fun to use. But I do use the auto rifle, because the other options are really lacking in my opinion. Well except maybe the hand cannon, that thing is just about right.
maintain sprint speed while turning your hitbox into the size of a large cat. its like a moving a drop shot. to those thinking that its like ghost's slide, its much, much more useful. you can get under anything. especially because people are so headshot focused.
even defensively, you can use it to get away from all kinds of stuff. its basically essential for blade dancers imo
no you cannot.
fusion rifle maybe? the shotgun has lower range than some melees lol
the shotgun range is absolutely pathetic and you have to play in a very aggressive style just to make it worth the spot in your secondary.

Also the fact that the heroic etc weekly things are friends only even though they are just the already available match made strikes with modifiers like more damage, more enemies, more aggressive enemies etc. No reason at all for them to be friend only.
Is there a better way to farm vanguard ranks other than patrol missions? The crucible isn't available to me as an option, FTR.
I'm somehow lost in terms of the story but whatever, leveling is the goal. Fellow Hunters, once the second class opens up at level 15 do I have to make a choice which class to level from then on? I'm almost to level 12 and haven't left the moon yet.

I can see that, but when it comes to maps like Shores of Time?
My experience with them has been less than optimal.
Your not alone. Hard to believe, but Basically there isn't a story, more or less.

To whoever asked, yes stealth destroys in PvP just like it did in Halo
After not being able to view my guardian online at all the bungie site finally seems to have fixed my account error.
Behold "Tim" my level 22 guardian. Sporting his new cream and green shader.
It's great now I can actually change stuff online and see the benefits. Just need some hunt some exotic gear now.

in a world with fusion rifles and snipers, the shotgun, even one with a range of 15', does not need a nerf. my 2 cents

Got a rare hand cannon. Never used them before, decided to try with this one. Holy shit they are OP.
Yup ud rather fail miserably than play scheduling manager for as long if not longer than I play the actual content. I won't buy any dlc packs if their content doesn't have matching.
If they had an acceptable in game guild system no matchmaking would be less shitty but their social hooks aren't even as good as fucking halo 2
Ad for the daily heroic story missions are they way too hard to solo at lv 20 haven't had a chance to try yet.
I wouldn't say I'm lost on the story, but I don't think there's a ton there besides just a base with an introduction to a few races. Has anyone read the grimoire? I was wondering if there's actually a good amount of story there. It really should be in-game though, at least in a voice-acted Mass Effect-like codex.

only fix i have for shotguns is to make the draw time very long. harder to find weapons like legendaries and exotics can change that, but now it seems like people can pull them out of their pockets and one shot you across a room.
one reason why i'm not giving up my throwing knife. ever

Played the venus mission earlier where you
and it occurred to me that while the 'campaign' (telling that there's no trophy at the end of it) is a bit hrmmmph, there are some decent set-pieces in there. I'm thinking about...
Anyway, gonna be online again in an hour or so, if anybody wants to do the weekly strike, let me know. I'll say it again (damnit!) but any Destiny EU 2 people who want to do it let me know! I want my platinum!
take on rows and rows of vex in a library
The Last Array (when the ships come from the sky as the array opens), Sword of Crota (obviously when you get to hack away at everything you see), going into the Fallen spaceship (I can't recall its name), the final level in the black garden and so on.

Question. I don't usually care much for trophies or achievements, but If you kill an entire team all at once, do you get an achievement or anything special unlocked?
I pulled this off, just needed one more opponent and I would've cleared out the entire opposing team.

experimenting with triple jump and i definitely wont be using this. if you run forward, the second and third jump can barely move you any direction other than forward.
sticking with directional jump.

I realized early on that a quick way to upgrade uncommon weapons was to equip them before turning in bounties. This nets more weapons parts when discarding them. But what area of the game, or which mode generates the most uncommon weapons? I have a bunch of rare weapons, but getting more parts for upgrades has been slow. Also, what do you do with the strange coins?

triple jump was the most disappointing thing...it was like that little pathetic hop Kratos has for a Double Jump in God of War

Damn they are not f'in around in these lv 24 story missions. Completely different game when playing at lv 24. Feels like you are being hunted. Was doing the heroic daily at level 24 and my god, so many waves and each one had me running around like a scared child. I got to the last wave with the 2 yellow minotaurs but just couldn't get them down. AUGH! Very close though I just need a void heavy weapon and a void sniper. I have a void fusion rifle but it just wasn't reliable at greater distances..
Was a fun battle though. Took it down without blinking on 20 lol.
Above, triple jump is about distance not height. You can jump from the platforms in the moon strike for example. Can first jump, once you start falling second jump, then again once you start falling 3rd jump. I've crossed massive distances with triple jump. Also nice for mid air shooting to keep the enemies aim off

I've given up trying to figure out peoples complaints with the game outside of load times and fucking strange matchmaking choices.
I love this game, the thirst for gear is real.
On a side note. Anyone else notice there's 3 slots for subclasses for each class? Would be rad if they add new specs in one of the expansions.
Don't see the request
