Always up for the Fatebringer runs Moog. Do what I do and send a message to everyone online and see who comes back.
Cheers, although I suspect most people will now be caught up in the "run to be a 34" and PoE-ing for the foreseeable future and takers may be limited especially if they already have FB, but no harm in asking

Cough, splutter, what? Fatebringer wasn't powerful enough. Wash your mouth out Mr Speckle, I won't have it biggrin (I suspect once you have it up to 365 it will once again bend space and time)

Quite looking forward to some PoE action, just need to clear the story missions first thumbup
If anyone planning FB runs this weekend drop me a shout ... defo still need it. Comes from only having had chance to raid once or twice.

Level 28 and 32 were no problem but, we failed on level 34...
Remind me of when I left the fireteam? hehe

L33t skillz. yesshoot

In all seriousness, I ran a level 28 and 32 with Mars and the Gigolo quite comfortably later on. Twas great fun and I managed to bag the PoE Hunter's cloak! biggrin

I think I am going to hang onto my armour and weapon cores and see what I can bag over the next few weeks. I'm not bothered about grinding to level 34 this time. As soon as you do so, there is little much else to do/get.

Nice to see us all back to playing as often as we once did. smile
What about level 35 PoE and Trials of Osiris though Singhy? confused

There are quite a few of us now with level 34 characters, so it should make future PoE runs a lot easier.

I assumed you'd jumped in with Kaney when I left and arc-bladed through the remainder without any wipes.....did that not happen? confused

Not sure if I'll be on tonight but, keen to give it another try if I am! shoot
Firstly. Don't dis the arc-blade. If you recall correctly, it single-handedly won the NF. yes

No, I was already in PoE (at round 4 or so) so didn't want to ditch. He didn't want to hang around so did a runner.

I'll try to be on tonight, but have stuff on... I'll 100% be on tomorrow though and most of Saturday. shoot

That's true. I think what I meant was that I'll try to get to 34 on one character to do the high level stuff, but for the others, I won't grind for keys and repeatedly run PoE to complete the set as much as I did in CE. I'll get Daddy Hunter to 34 and then just play for the fun of it.

I'm pretty certain that I'll also be deleting sexy hunter and starting a Titan. I've never had one and want to punch things punch

Level 35 cracked!!! I won't go into details for people who want to go in fresh, but it was pretty tough at the end.

Didn't realise you could reforge IB weapons at the gunsmith. Now got another Timur's that I'm happy with and an arc Efrideet's.

Well, had a good run at level 35 this morning/afternoon - the first few rounds were reasonably straight-forward, but the final round took a lot of practice to nail, not helped by needing a full complement of Gjally rockets plus a heavy synth ready to pop.

If everything goes right though - it's pretty straight-forward - a minute or so of spamming Gjally's at the boss and then everything despawns and you can capture/deactivate the mines unopposed.

Not sure you get anything special from the level 35 treasure chest - none of us got an exotic item from it. Think I got a Queen's Scout Rifle from it.


Has anyone got a piece of armour from trading in for the Judgement's Chance? I got a fusion rifle and I think Lovechild has traded in twice and got a weapon both times?

Didn't realise that either - I've got a version 1.0 Jolder's Hammer that has been sitting in my Vault for months unused - time for a reroll for perfect perks. hehe

Yep, traded twice and got Hand Cannon and Rocket Launcher. Hoping for armour with intellect and/or discipline. As usual though I don't actually know what's possible, so I'm probably striving for the unobtainable. I got The Last Word from chest.

2 level 34s now with horrible strength rolls, and no space to put anything.

Cheers Singh.

My appraisal of Hunters being the weaker class for PoE was wrong. Having done 34 as a hunter, and being in a team where everyone was a different class for 35, I think each class brings desirable skills into it. The 1st 2 difficulties just felt like a bit of a brawl to me, whereas the last 2 more tactics come into play.

Story missions done for the Titan, looking forward to some PoE action now. Running through the story with the Hunter too and have already got HoW armour for helmet, chest and legs and when I've fully upgraded the Don't Touch Me's, that'll be another lvl 32 without even trying, this one having completely bypassed Crota gear to get there.

Well done to all you guys up at lvl 34 already and having cracked the lvl 35 PoE also, wow! So that content lasted all of 2 days then for some biggrin if you ignore the Trials of Osiris of course which lands tomorrow I believe

Do you think that having three Gallys is a prerequisite for downing the boss quickly enough to run the mines unopposed?

Absolutely. Nothing else seemed to really touch him. As it is you still need to put about 20 Gjally rockets on him in under a minute!

I think so. Youngsy and I stayed to finish him off, whist Adam as a Hunter started on the mines. It's more a case of whether the 2 left behind can stay alive long enough to kill him though. I think the mine runner could probably do the 1st 2 mines with the minions there (Adam may disagree). The last 10% of health is the trickiest as the bubble's long gone and so has your heavy. I believe a 2 stage strategy with less firepower is viable, and no doubt the way Bungie had intended it to be played.

Having only done it once though, that's by no means a definitive answer, and you know people will be solo/no gun'ing it by next week.

Nice one, is it the Fate of All Fools Bounty ("An Unknown Patron")?

Well only two days to be fair but you and me both! I've been on holiday this week but other stuff simply gets in the way meaning I've only been able to grab and hour or two here and there frown

I'll see if I can do the 28 PoE tomorrow even if it is with randoms (which I don't enjoy), still need to do the new strike both in normal and NF mode and do the story with the hunter, so if anyone wants a companion for story run through, feel free to hit me up. I've done the first mission only on that character but happy to jump into anything

Picked up a couple of treasure keys so expecting good things from the reward chests! Seeing as the Gjally is now seemingly essential for higher levels, here's hoping biggrin

Xur is in the Reef - turn right as you land and there's a new side room open with him in.

He's got no new exotics.

No Back Up Plans (Titan Arms)
Radiant Dancing Machines (Hunter Boots)
Starfire Protocol (Warlock Chest)
Last word
Exotic shard

Helmet engram for 23 motes.

He's selling motes for 2 strange coins each.

Looks like the telemetries and heavy ammo synths are still the best use of strange coins.
