That sucks Sims. Glad I did mine a couple of days ago or I'd have to have waited for level 3 court to get ToM.
I've got my ToM, so it doesn't really matter; the only fragments I don't have are that one and the Tier 3 mini-Crota in Court of Oryx. Don't get me wrong, if there's an exploit as clearly broken as this appeared to be, it needed fixing, but it just struck me as a touch annoying that Bungie are able to patch an exploit that can be used to benefit the player within hours of it coming to light, yet if there's an issue or bug that had a negative impact on us, it takes months to get sorted.On an unrelated note, what is the point of Nightfall any more? I've just run through it with Stimps and my reward was a 282 pulse rifle. Not only is that 23 points less than the primary scout rifle I used to beat the strike, it's weaker than the other three primaries currently carried on that same character. RNG is a cruel mistress, but without the incentive of the XP boost, I'm genuinely struggling to see why I'd bother to run another Nightfall.

I've done em all for the week Stimps, but happy to go through today if you're on. Failing that, we'll be raiding Tuesday reset ready for bannering in the evening (assuming a 18:00 start of course).
Is should be on Tuesday after lunch so will be very grateful for the carry if you are on.krunchkin said:
Am I missing something with jumping? I'm stuck on two separate levels now where I can't seem to jump high enough to proceed. I've tried double tapping X in every possible way with no luck
First off, which class are you? Secondly, which level are you (unlocked all the double jump upgrades?), thirdly, which level are you trying to play?

Jumps are class specific, and have the nasty tendency to make you hate the other two classes when you're not using. Warlocks and Titans are very slow and floaty but Warlocks can cover distances the others can't match and Titans get massive height, whilst Hunters require more precision but leave less to chance. I main Warlock, but whenever I switch to the others for a period of time, I start off hating their jump, then when I do move back to Warlock, it takes time to re-adjust.If it's easier you can try jumping with a sword as this keeps you in third-person view.

It may also help to max the agility on your sub-class whilst attempting the jumping bit (assuming you've unlocked the agility perks). Or, you could try equipping a weapon that has an +2 agility perk.Remind me which class you're playing as?
I've had a good weekend as far as exotics are concerned. Did a bit of Strike grinding on Sunday and yesterday and, along with a single purchase, acquired the following:-
Obsidian Mind
Light beyond Nemesis
Suros Regime (Y2) - Purchased
Supercell
Telesto
Invective
Only one of these (Obsidian Mind) dropped at 310 unfortunately, everything else is at 290. Still a pretty good haul though, ToC was working well for me it seems
LC - tell me more about skipping the grindy Taken kills.... What do I need to do?

You go in with someone who has completed the quest line and just do the strikes. I think 5 strikes opens The Road to Kings Fall 310 quest.
I've just opened the 310 artefact quest on my Warlock so, just need to do the raid.Hunter is on 'kill Taken Champions' which I haven't been bothering to do
Titan is still collecting stuff on Venus which I also haven't been bothering with.
So, if I go in with you, assuming you have completed the questline, my Hunter & Titan can skip straight to the final bit and just need to raid, is that about right?

Excellent, I shall see you later then 
Didn't you get the memo? It's PvP for the rest of the week
Krunch, you sure you're not missing a platform? Warlock and Titan are a quick double tap for maximum boost. Hunter, you press at last moment and the longer you hold the button the further he'll go.
