No, you can get a legendary drop from the level 3 mobs on Earth if the RNG Gods decide it's your time. This is why I find the grinding schemes largely worthless.

Funny you say that as I was just checking out the Hives's Tomb Ships in the Grimoire and thought how they looked like Necromonger ships <3

Not doing to bad in PVP but I got nothing so far...

Does raising his level even do anything? Does he get better engrams in store?
The low end gear is needed though to give you materials for your better weapons. I don't mind that system cuz it gives reason to be happy with basic loot. Why it comes from blue engrams makes no damn sense to me though. The dice roll for level should be the color of the engram. Why the tease... To get people rushing to the tower for no reason? Still don't get that design decision at all
Friends and I were joking about this at the end of a game. I got stomped the very next game and got a legendary engram while they got nothing. I dunno anymore man.

You should be at least level 20. Legendary and rare loot does not drop until you are at 20 (or 18, I can't remember exactly).
Drops are different for everyone. If you see it, it's yours.
I got my legendary when we lost, but I was top of the board. It's just freakin random.

Man, the right gun makes all the difference in PvP. I just got a shotgun (Suros MKB-33) and the impact on it is insane. I just went 25-6 with it.
Of course, my lower three players all got items while I got jack, but whatever.
gotcha, i thought you might be saying he's wrong about legendary engrams dropping blues and greens or something.
my biggest issues is the second part of what he mentions, getting a legendary engram should be exciting, not completely deflating. i like Destiny a lot but it definitely needs some tweaking.
Ah no wonder, me and BraXzy are farming nexus and he got one with in the first few minutes.

the subclasses would need to be redone from the ground up. when exotics come into play, everyone will have an overpowered gun with an overpowered subclass tree, but the differences in playstyle will be negligible because everyone will have maximized kill times and their health.
the least they could do is nerf the autos. it'd open up the combat (in other words, slow it down) and facilitate more strategic choices.
edit: on second thought, that'd just make supers and shotguns more powerful

I would do anything for that legendary warlock helmet I see that people got off PvP.
And I mean anything is on the table.
Even on the table.

It's just the worst when the afk guy gets the Leg engram. Everyone feels the heat of rage at that point. I find it's way too random, like vanilla D3 random.
they aren't 'problems'. its the game itself. if people keep running around thinking they won't catch any number of OHKs coming around a corner, that's on them. the game won't suddenly turn into halo 3 if enough people want it bad enough.
out of all the supers, the only thing that needs nerfing imo is the verticality of the titan's derp smash. warlocks (both classes) still need buffs.
Yeah its a running joke with my friends and I. We all got shifted our first few purple engrams. I was the worst of the 3 though. Then stuff turned around and now it's been raining gear.

Resist means that the enemy is resistant to the type of weapon you're using.
IIRC:
- If it's flying, use Void damage.
- If it's got blue shields, use Arc damage.
- If it's got red shields, use Solar damage.
Oddly enough I'm closer to being able buy an exotic from Xur next week than I am to getting Vanguard Rank 2.

It's probably this. Same story with Diablo III and other loot games. You pop into a thread and see people posting all kinds of awesome shit and it looks like everyone but you is scoring amazing loot, but the reality is that most people simply don't post about loot unless they got something cool.
Going to play some PVP tonight - if anyone wants one more for a party or wants to join add me
psn: bearsohmy
Request sent, I'll join you

As a Hunter, I've gotten two legendary engrams that became legendary gear.
A Titan chest piece and Warlock boots.

Game needs a trade system.
I bought a future war cult sash when I hit 20. When worn all Xp goes to fwc. I'm 2.25 deep with them now I just need to unlock vanguard.

they should make it at the very least 120. Or lower the price of the helmet. It's ridiculously priced.

but in destiny when you find a legendary shiny pokemon and catch it, it turns into a lvl 5 magikarp.

Don't get your hopes up. My last two were:
- A rare shotgun
- A legendary helmet... for the wrong class.
cant wait to see chapter two of this epic 10 year book
I calculated it.
In 2 weeks, if you get 100 per week. You can buy the chest, legs, and arms. However it will take an entire 2 weeks to just get the helm.
