I'm playing for the gauntlets and boots only then (and the hope of another ES drop).

Next time!

FWL was not available last IB either

Playing for the armour also.

hOW armour is helmet this time but strength only again.

I think the patch for this evening is to fix the IB rank glitch

This will have the added effect of stopping anyone doing the Iron Banner rank glitch, regardless of if this is what the patch was for.

I cant cope with the acronyms.....

I want more stuff, what should I do?

I have a good Rocket Launcher, an array of decent secondary weapons and Red Death and Hawkmoon(found this in the crucible strangely) in my primary collection.

I've just been booted and now it won't log in. Tweet from Bungie saying it is staying offline for changes to be made and be back within the hour ...

What was this all about then? Seeing as I've not done Iron Banner (and probably won't) I hadn't heard about this

Yep, the acronyms can be a little WTF (see what I did there? hehe) but they ordinarily refer to weapons or in-game events- PoE= Prison of Elders, ToO= Trials of Osiris, FB= Fatebringer (a gun). You'll pick that up.

Don't worry about stuff to much, depending on your level. Aim, firstly, to have fun (and I suggest you add people from the list on the first page) and then secondly to get to level 32/33 or so. Do that by buying vendor gear (you'll need marks) and aiming for an exotic piece of armour. Once you're there, you'll be able to participate in Nightfalls (fairly hard weekly missions) which give good drops and hard mode raids. You'll soon be awash with weapons. The grind will then begin. smile

For the love of God, don't shard (delete) that Hawkmoon. Learn to use it. Then. Profit. hehe

Amongst other things, the new patch increases the drop rate of treasure keys and you even get one guaranteed for the first Wanted: Fallen bounty done each week. Notes here: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=12978

Hehe, no way I am getting rid of Hawkmoon, I rather like it!

Yes, I am at level 32 now, have legendary armour and an exotic helmet(ooer missus), tried a nightfall but was on my own and didn't last long, the level 30 stuff is generally doable and I have done the first of the PoE. Fatebringer has killed me in the Crucible rather a lot as has Thorn and Vex Mythocaster.

1.2.0.2 – The one that addresses some House of Wolves issues

Ever since House of Wolves was released, we’ve been following player feedback on multiple fronts. These changes to the player experience are being deployed to correct a few issues that you’ve noticed – as well as a few we noticed.

Key Highlights

-The first Wanted Fallen Bounty completed each week is now guaranteed to drop a Treasure Key
-Greatly increased the drop rate of Treasure Keys from the small chests at the end of the Prison of Elders
-Increased the drop rate of Treasure Keys from Ether Chests
-Ammo consumables can now stack to 100 (Mod Note - Added here because WOW)

Prison of Elders

-Greatly increased the drop rate of Treasure Keys from the small chests
-Class Items will now drop from Level 32, Level 34, and Level 35
-Fixed a bug in which the Ship (Hildian Seeker) did not drop under certain circumstances
-Fixed a bug in which the ‘Elder Cipher’ Bounty could not be acquired if your Bounty inventory was full
-You will need to defeat Skolas again to receive the ‘Elder Cipher’ Bounty
-Damage caused by Qodron’s Gaze is reduced by 25%
-Damage multiplier for the Jailbreaker buff increased by 100%

Trials of Osiris

-Fixed an issue in which Trials of Osiris emblems were not sent to the Postmaster if your Emblem inventory was full
-Passage Coins can now be dismantled

Weekly Heroics

-Fixed an issue where the Weekly Heroic strikes did not award engrams (Note: Tooltip will not display them as rewards)

World

-Increased the drop rate of Treasure Keys from Ether Chests
-Ether Chests may only be looted once per spawn
-Ether Chests will no longer grant ammo consumables when opened
-Ether Chests will now grant a small amount of Queen's Wrath reputation when opened
-Ether Chests now have a chance to drop Tokens of Flight, Identity, and Judgment

Quests

-Petra will no longer display a quest waypoint for players who have not purchased House of Wolves
-Fixed a bug in which players abandoning the ‘Gone to Ground’ quest were still being directed to the Venus Patrol

Bounties

-The first Wanted Fallen Bounty completed each week is now guaranteed to drop a Treasure Key

Weapons

-Fixed a bug in which the 1.2.0.1 hotfix mistakenly did not contain the 1.1.1 Fusion Rifle balance changes. As a result, players were playing with its pre-1.1.1 weapon balance state. The original fix has been re-applied.

Items

-Tokens of Flight, Identity, and Judgment can now be dismantled to gain +10 House of Judgement reputation each
-Ammo consumables can now stack to 100
Decent update.

Stopping the farming of chests isn't a bad thing as 99% of us were only doing it for Treasure Keys anyway and if they've increased the drop rate significantly then I'm happy with that trade off. Got hundreds upon hundreds of materials anyway, so no biggy!

Just quit 32 PoE out of boredom of getting smashed in the face by Qordon. Completed it at L34 last week with 3x 34s and 3x Ghorns.

Expected it to be non cheesable at 32. Apparently not! Please share your non cheese strats? I need some of those helmets

Got to round 5 of lv32 PoE, boss down to a 1/4 health and then I'm booted by the servers.

Highly irritating.

You know you can rejoin right? The time between everyone dying and the modifiers pop up you can get people to join.
