it would have helped if brows hadn't messed up everyone's checkpoint! I'm expecting Will to develop into a Destiny god after doing the jumping puzzle first time on his first attempt.

As I was going off I got an invite from some colonials asking to help with the sisters. We had 4 Malices! The first sister was down with about 25 seconds left on the timer!

Then smashed Oryx first time..... got a 300 shotgun.... disappointing

The damage the detonations do to Oryx has been scaled down apparently, it's a bit harder to do it in 4 goes now.

Think he's still there. I last heard the harrowing sound of plastic splintering into a thousand pieces before all fell silent biggrin

Disappointed with the changes to materials. Strange coins and weapon parts were hard enough to come by as it was, now it's going to be worse. Wouldn't be surprised to see Tess selling strange coins for real money soon.

Pissed of that my spindle got dropped to 280, instead of 290 that was suggested. Still managed to get it back to 309, but that's not the point.

Last nights raiding was shambolic. We didn't spend that long getting through the war priest door on our first ever attempt. For next time everyone, remember what these famous motivation speakers once sang: -

On a plus note, I did manage to get the old Touch of Malice. Did the tier 2 and tier 3 CoO, got the Eris quest for the final mission. Tom and wuddie gave me a hand, hammered it first time. Maxed it out with motes.

Interesting weapon but probably cant see much use for it outside of the raid to be honest.

It does seem odd that strange coins have been nerfed when they seemed to be the one thing dropping much less in TTK already.

Bungie have said in the past that microtransactions would be cosmetic only and wouldn't effect gameplay but I wouldn't trust that.

I am on from around 1900 tonight, and the same on Friday - farming fragments and raiding.

nope, they don't seem keen on offering it up in the daily any more.

Got my first Exotic weapon last night. Handles and shoots well, but the light level is so low down it doesn't make sense to use it. Still, I was beaming with pride on getting it, only to discover I didn't get the 'The Life Exotic' achievement for equipping it! rage

You can infuse higher rated rare and legendary weapons to increase the light level

I had read that (and I need to farm some legendary marks) but I'd also read that the Year 1 weapons would never be truly competitive, they were supposed to be consigned to the past. I'd love it if I could make it more powerful, it's a really usable weapon and the hair trigger is excellent.

What weapon was it? And where did you get it?

You can't infuse year 1 weapons they max out at 170 light, if you were doing vog or crota that would explain a year one weapon drop, would seem strange for a war one exotic to drop from a ttk mission/event

Thanks, I guessed I might not be able to get much more light out of the weapon. It was a Mida Multitool, not sure why the picture link has failed. I also have a legendary year one fusion rifle that has an option to upgrade it to the maximum year one damage, but there is no option to do that with the Mida.

I got it doing that Fallen arena combat thing, where you fight the S.A.B.E.R 2 shank boss.

I think that's a year 1 weapon and will be outclassed for year 2. And you can't infuse it.

I liked my multi tool back in the day.



I now have a 297 legendary scout rifle with firefly which while effective is no fatebringer. I've also collected some runes on the dreadnaught - one turned into a key but the other I think unlocks an event in the founts (when charged)

Raid went really good last night,

After 2 completions its starting to feel like Atheon, as long as all team members do there job and do it well, it works and there are no issues.

Drop rate feels like Atheon too, as fk ALL IS DROPPING WORTHY OF 2 hours of gameplay!

Not sure if anybody else has installed the Experience preview dashboard, it's a total disaster, never had so many errors thrown up and I'm having to unplug the PSU every night to even use the bloody thing.

  • note to self, do not install beta software and then whinge about how buggy it is*
