No worries jimmy!! Was a good effort last night.

Also hi morphies and vragev, randomly while we were doing chests in the citadel along popped morphies and rage in to the same server we were already playing, totally separate, think that's the first time I've ever seen someone on my friends list in the same game without being invited!

Last count on the new weapons was around 16, which included 4 handcannons, 2 auto rifles, 1 scout, 2 fusion, 3 snipers, 2 rocket launchers, no land beyond and thunderlord. May have sharded a couple too.

From the PoE chest I had No Land Beyond, crest of alpha lupi and s rocket launcher. On the game over screen I had a handcannon, 3 coins and 3 motes. That was 1 run on level 28.
That's a great haul - but lol at the NLB from the PoE chest.

I thought everyone would save their keys for the level 32 runs!?

Sounds like everyone had a good time last night.

I popped on for 30 mins during my "lunch" break....comically I randomly ended up in the same Reef instance as Tank, Glenda and Marlin - cue lots of waving and dancing!

All i've done so far is level the cryptarch on one charachter - got a legendary primary engram out of the package.

It looks like HoW is going to be all about getting the "perfect" rolls on weapons and then a complementary set of level 34 armour.

Oh! and I got one of the ghosts!

Does PoE come with matchmaking?
PoE does indeed matchmake - but I suspect communication is critical when it gets hard...

Level 28 does - level 32, 34 and 35 do not

Got to lvl 34 earlier and had my first go at lvl 35 PoE. Got as far as the final fight with Skolas and he's tough!

I'll also upload a video of the sharding of my 4th Ghorn at some point.

Oh and general consensus is that the 'key' chest only ever drops queens wrath weapons regardless of level or number of runs.

I also got the Ram Warlock helmet (can't remember where from). The perks are really interesting, looks to focus on Warlock melee, as well as looking demonic!

Spent a good few hours trying to finish 35 PoE last night and it's really hard. Won't openly discuss it for a few days as not to spoil the surprise though.

Take them to the tower, you can trade them for 250 xp with the vanguard quartermaster I believe?

It appears that on the final bosses in PoE there are spots and behaviours that result in you being teleported. There's a hiding corner on the final boss at 34 that will teleport you out and if you don't move for a while then you'll get teleported too. I even got teleported straight after being revived yesterday (presumably for staying in the same spot for 30 seconds!). Bungie didn't want us camping this one out.

Titans aren't essential but are pretty useful, especially for the lvl 34 'floor is lava' boss.

I've only done 28 and now 32. 28 with 3 of us was interesting as it was new so trying to find areas to fight off the hordes of baddies has hard. By the second time on level 32 Simo told us idea areas to stay but it took more time to do the final boss than it did the first 4 hordes all together. Took almost 30 mins just to kill the guy. And was fecking hard. So no idea what the higher levels will be like. But it's great to have something new and challenging.

And looking forward to trying Crota Hard with a level 33 or higher character. No cheesing of areas I think or even faultless Crota hard soon

Out of curiosity, we did a hard crota run last night with 5 of us at level 33.

The whole thing was a breeze.

Deathsinger was a complete doddle.

Put crota down in two swords. I could have done it in 1.5 swords but decided to play it safe. 8 hits with first sword and 4 with second.

I have seen a video of 3 34's destroying him in 40 secs using gallahorns. Now I know the mechanics it looks simple.
