When i have had chance to get on this week I have been grinding for keys. So far the fruits of my labour have wielded...

0 keys!!! furiousbanghead

Although i have completed PoE twice on level 28...

Still need to do all of the raids, the weekly, the nightfall and the higher level PoE :P

So if anyone is about tonight i will be online doing, something... Anything.

tough luck Grant, are you leaving a space for them in your consumables?

Last week there was a time when I had full consumables and a full postmaster so there was literally nowhere they could go if dropped!

I also got a couple from the campaign.

To be honest I've not been impressed with the loot on the big chest anyway.

I still can't bring myself to shard that 4th Gjallahorn either....

My consumables are never full, I tend to break everything down that i don't think I will need (Some times breaking stuff i do need down! smashsilly)

I got my Icebreaker from the loot chest so want another go to try and get my 1st Gally!

I think that'll have been a completion reward, you get them when you're down there anyway the first time per week.

I think it only gives Queen's Wrath weapons.

The chest does only give Queens wrath weapons and you have a chance at exotics also.

I think the exotic chance is only once per week per character, so the first time you open it after the weekly reset.

Yes I thought nearly everyone got an exotic on their first "Big" chest?

I suspect this will only be the first time - ever - on each charachter. Remember they did that on the first chest on TDB? I waited for it to spawn and got an exotic...cant remember what now but I sharded it.

Tank - were shotguns useful on level 32/34? or could you not get close enough to use them?

I am trying to figure out whether to ascend exotic snipers, or RL's or universal remote.

To some degree they were useful but only when you were cowering in a Titan bubble and they got close enough. Other than that you don't want the enemies that close, they really do hit hard.

Ok - I might do Thunderlord, IB and maybe P&T then.

I have a few exotic primaries but I assume you really need primaries with elemental damage? It looks like there are a LOT of shields to take down.

Edited to add - mega golden gun versus Crota shield:-

Who needs 5 guys, a ledge, and several Ghorns?

With my very limited run at a lower level, I was switching loadout every round to deal with shields.

can it change loadouts whilst you are in game though? I thought equipping/unequipping was locked out whilst you were in game?

Tower ghost is the android equivalent by the way:-

Only time it struggled was while I was transitioning from orbit to the planet, it has worked seamlessly all other times, it didn't lose anything tho, it just didn't move it.

Only downside of it is I can't find a way to transfer directly back to the vault, only allows transfer from vault and between characters... But I may have missed something.

The ability to pre save loadouts and then fire those straight to your chosen character could play a big part in the PoE

Impressive. Terrifying but very impressive.
Can you carry me though some 32/34 so I can get the bits to rank up? smile

Wow - amazed it can work when you are in game.

Just watched Triplewreck get his 9 straight wins in Trials! SERIOUSLY good loot.

They seemed to go off to a special area, and get a massive loot chest:-

A ToO specific solar hand cannon.
Some ToO armour
Special ToO emblem
+random legendary stuff.

He then went back to the reef to buy the rewards - these were "only" 100 glimmer each:-

The gold award - gave some etheric light plus motes plus a ToO specific gun
The next award - more etheric light and legendary stuff
- some motes plus basic stuff
A piece of level 34 armour and a pre-maxed 365 auto rifle.

Question. As a Titan, is blessings of light preferred in the PoE?

For most of it yes (with the orb generation perk) but for lvl 34 boss then armour is supposedly better and for lvl 35 boss then weapons (with bastion).

I got some good rolls on the exotic helmets...I got two st 14's! Plus I got the new ram helmet! I miss the super regen of obsidian mind but it looks funny to wear the new one.

Got the story missions done - they were fun! The final mission looked impossible to do properly but in true destiny style I found a hidey hole and sniper-cheesed it. smile

Edited to say it was very late when I started and I couldn't really use mic so I didn't jump in to any parties/games...
