you definetly want to do that by handing stuff in rather than buying. you get more rep and its far easier than farming glimmer, since when your getting engram drops you are also likely getting boatloads of glimmer.

Don't waste it buying his shit. I bought like 10 items and it moved maybe a millimeter.
Yeah, seems like it's a lot less worth it all around compared to the beta. Which is too bad because I rather enjoyed doing the loot box farming thing in Old Russia.

The Vault of Glass has popped up on the Venus worldmap. God damnit I'm still working on level 24, I need another week!

Guess I'll just have to grind Vanguard while I wait for more legendary drops. Putting FWC on hold for now.
 
Holy shit. Just finished the weekly strike on Mars. It took hours (and I didnt even get any exciting loot).

Just me and one other guy, both level 16. Third guy quite halfway through, game never filled the spot. Made it very difficult for us, especially since we were underleveled in the first place.

Valus Tu’aurc. That motherfucker is dead. Feel like I'm going to have a heart attack.

Destroying people in pvp with this hand cannon. It's like a mini sniper.

Step aside Auto Rifles there's a new sheriff in town.

Better make sure youre putting two in the head at all times. Otherwise it may as well be called the 'Assists gun'.

Woot got a legendary first strike mission. Anyone wanna do some on ps4? Add deadlytaco i will be on all day unless something comes up.
 
Does anyone know exactly how this radar works? What I mean is, are there ways to be hidden off of it? I'm convinced it is all seeing but sometimes I see things that lead me to believe otherwise...

for those of us who mainly work through subscribed threads, it would be nice if the person who closes the previous thread puts a link to the new thread before closing.

Nexus farming hasn't been very productive for me AT ALL. 2 blues in 15 minutes. That's it. No greens at all. Wat.

Crouching similarly to Halo takes you off radar. But in this game, it's only temporary. Bright red means they are on your level, dim red means they are above or below.

So I killed the "Heart of Darkness". And uhh I guess I win? That's it? Nobody thanked me or anything, no credit roll. Only mission I haven't done is the Mars strike I think. How appropriately anticlimactic for this game.

Hopefully the expansions expand on the actual story as well.
Who knows, maybe after a while it'll even be coherent.

There I go dreaming again.

But that's your job as a Guardian?!

What are you talking about? The Speaker shows his eternal gratitude by bestowing you a single mote of light, while selling items for 23 motes. Such a generous man.

So as far as balancing goes in multiplayer...

I understand that for the most part what level your character is doesn't really matter. But also, weapon levels don't matter either, right? So if I use a hand cannon for multiplayer should I equip a lower level one that has a higher magazine since it'll do the same damage as higher level ones or is there a set magazine for hand cannons in multiplayer regardless of what you equip?

The damage is normalised but the bar graph stats matter in relation to the weapon. So impact (damage per bullet) with a hand cannon is still very important.

Me too, using it since last night.

Lev 19 drop for me though, would love if the lev 20 one drops for me soon.

Mine is only a level 16. Works well enough for me though. With headshots, it 1 shot kills any underling enemies (Dreg, Vandals, Goblins, Hobgoblins, Acolytes, etc).

So I just did the Sepiks Prime bounty, but because I didn't deal the killing blow it didn't count.

*abandons objective*

oh well

I just got it without dealing the killing blow. I think it just glitched on you :(

You got a speech and you also got the unique rifle as a prize. Actually a very cool weapon. Best if you beat the game at 20 so the wep matches your level so it's pretty potent with some nice upgrades.

This was a massive project from the jump, the ending to this game is just letting you know that
the traveller is now awake and healing
.

I hope the main war is against the Cabal. They are awesome

A blade dancer can gain temporary invisibility after crouching for a few seconds which completely takes you off the map for the 5 seconds or so that it lasts. I think you can even go sprinting around then and it won't show you at all until the invisibility wears off.

I want to save this for a bigger overview post but the story didn't resolve itself very well; the inherently open nature of the mission takes away from building urgency or a sense of threat. This is, unfortunately, something I don't think open-world games will ever be able to accomplish.

I think the Cabal suffer the most from lack of exposition. Next up is The Fallen, who you grow to like a bit more as the story goes on, but suffer from a fairly weak introduction. Vex and Hive get the most attention and are resultingly pretty awesome in their own right.

I do love the universe though. Atmosphere and world building are otherwise top notch.

I always loved this games.

"Yo we need you to kill this massive evil asap" Oh, all this super rad gear I have? Naw fuck you, gotta charge. Husslin.

Made it to 20, still love shooting things in destiny but jesus christ, I'm supposed to just keep grinding these Strikes and missions? Wouldn't be so bad if they always had skulls on but they don't so it's literally just the same thing with different level numbers.

Why couldn't they at least have another patrol on every planet with higher level enemies?


Seems like I'm going to stop playing before I've even seen all my classes skills, which sucks because as I say, I really enjoy the bit where I'm shooting things.

Cool, my second purple. A nice Titan piece. I wish there was trading or something so I could get a nice hunter piece in return.
