Out of interest, did the vault get a difficulty increase?

Quick question, about PoE

Do you get 1 key for finishing each difficulty level per week, ie 4 keys if you completed all difficulty levels.

Or is it strictly one key per week no matter what level difficulty, then for re-runs you have to farm keys??

I didn't get a key at all for completing the level 28 mode... So that's doubtful.

No, I think there is a chance but it's not always guaranteed. Don't be that bothered about it though, the big chest only contains Queens Wrath weapons (except for lvl 35 which has shaders and ships too) and the four I've got don't seem that great.

The a/w cores, etheric light and completion reward (guaranteed exotic!) are better rewards.

I'm confused now, do the aw cores etc come from
The little chests?? Or on completion of the harder difficulties?? The big loot chest is just a bonus?

The wife's away for two nights, tempted to reinstall...

But, I'm sure I've done it before, can I re-install whilst at work so the game's ready to go when I get back home tonight?

I've had a Google and can't find anything about re-installing.

Use smartglass on an android phone to do it. go in your library and hit install.

Think you can do it via the webpage too. However, you may need to have the disc in the drive, in which case if it's not you're SOL.

Not too many spoilers on level 35 or stories please.

Not sure if I'll even get on this weekend. frown

Hard crota sounds like fun now!

And congrats to simo on getting the best looking hat! There is a person on reddit with the jack o lantern and ram at the same time...

I've read that keys drop from random activities...but not guaranteed from completing 32 and 34.

So you can farm chests, or get them on nightfalls etc.

Someone has got one from handing in bounties.

I seem to be addicted to the new weapon reforging smile

New fave perk is battle runner. It gives you a movement speed boost for 5 seconds after a kill. Ive now got it on 2 hand cannons, with armour piercing rounds and outlaw.

It's like having MIDA equipped for those 5 seconds.

Also rerolled a scout rifle, two scouts and two launchers to get the perks I want.

Need some shot guns now.

I had decided to wait until there is something clearly better than the rest..... let people such as yourself do the hard work!! Does anything else stand out to you yet?

Might have a crack at lvl 35 Skolas again tonight. At the moment the only strategy that works is Gjallahorns, Gjallahorns everywhere!

Scout rifles with full auto and firefly sounds like a nice combo?

I only we to the tower last night and got a new rocket launcher which I re-forged and got tripod and tracking with arc burn, so happy with that.

I got the unwilling soul with crowd control, armor piercing rounds and hidden hand :-)

It was good to get back on again last night after a break, no idea what I was doing, comms not working, I died a lot and I still don't have an Ice Breaker. banghead

I have another night of freedom tonight, I'll be on from 7 till 11ish and will do a bit of reading today to see what/where/who is new.

I really need to get a raid chest piece as I'm still stuck on 31 frown

I was in the same position, stuck at 31, needed a Crota helmet...

I got it 2 days before HoW dropped... banghead

But, I have Maxed raid, arms and legs... And an exotic chest which I increased straight up to the new 42 light level with an exotic shard...

So I don't even need to wear my raid helmet to get level 32... Helmet 33 light, legs/arms 36 light chest 42 light.


Might be the quickest way for you woohoo

Yes unless you really want to do crota asap I would just buy an armour piece or do level 28 PoE with a treasure key and hope you get an exotic armour. You should "only" need 75 marks for a new chest

Managed the level 34 PoE with Glenda and Rage last night, and it was bloody tough.

The cabal level and defusing the mines gave us the most problems. Must have been 45 minutes on that alone. We found the rest a bit easier, relatively.

We also found the titan bubbles essential. Both Glen and Rage ran titans, and I was trying my best to feed them orbs with my hunter (finally found a use for alpha lupi).

I've also never considered Gjallahorn absolutely critical in previous content, but just nice to have to make it easier. It did seem like last night that we were using them as primary weapons through most of it, again they seemed essential. Just mask sure you have plenty of synths.

And what's with the random teleporting around the map? Is it an anti cheese mechanic?

Didn't bother using the weapon core for an auto rifle. Which begs the question, does the available armour piece and weapon change weekly?
