Popped on and see a mate on and went and had a blast on nightfall. took about 10 mins with just 2 of us. Arc and Solar this week


Managed to get all 3 done in about 40 mins. including the time it took to change characters and move weapons about. I have a second No land beyond. After getting my first last week on Crota. Amazing gun wink

And 2 legendary engrams which i;m keeping in the postmaster
Was surprised how easy it was tbh even with my mate randomly joining halfway through! Will probably be on later if you're about.

Now it's just the Elder cipher bow thing to sort out and i'm almost half was through the POE killing the boss thing. Would like to do a 34 or even 35 if anyone is about in the next day or so
If that's your first Elder Cipher then I would seriously consider the Lord of Wolves shotgun. It's wrecks everything and is very helpful if you are in a team. The bow is nice, but its a bit of a novelty. The Dreg's Promise is utter crap and you should only want it if you want to collect all exotics.

Yeah I got the bow - wish I'd got the shotgun now. I did enjoy shooting vandals with their own gun though!

This weeks teaser trailer came out last night for the Court of Oryx reveal tonight. More spoilers etc but it looks like it could be fun.

to late now. I went for the bow and hoping that the 1000 points from boss kills it the last and i'm not going to have to go to the Crucible next

Yeah I think the 1000 points is that last step, I'm also fairly sure that you get to actually choose which gun when you hand in the completed cipher so shotgun is still on the cards

Yep - you definitely get to choose again when you go back to Variks after the thousand point grind.

Haven't done any PoE for a couple of weeks and weirdly miss it! :-)

Anyone up for a VoG hard run using white armour and guns from TTK? :-) Would feel odd...

!!!NOTICE!!!

Any exotic bounties you have between now and NEXT Tuesday will be handed into the respective vendor and auto-completed. So anyone wanting the Thorn/Bad Juju/Invective may want to pick those up. Thorn is not a year 2 weapon for now...but Bad Juju and Invective are year 2 weapons.

PoE Exotics - Will no longer drop as a cipher from next tuesday. Instead they have a chance to drop on the Queens chest at the end (no idea if all levels)

FFS take me 6 months to get around to the Thorn and if I left it just over 2 weeks it would auto-complete.

Thats good. i have had about 3 exotic bounties fall in the past week. So won't bother with then now and just let them sort themselves out

More info in the weekly update.

A LOT of the TTK changes are going through on the 8th...essentially the only things missing are the new content (i.e. the dreadnought, the new weapons/armour and the level cap changing to 40)

So quests, collection machines, weapon balance, will all change on Tuesday...this is the last solar burn Gjallarhorn week ever - so make the most of it!

Note:
1. Any uncompleted bounties will get deleted so if you have any partial ones then finish them off or lose them
2. Exotic bounties are getting autocompleted for "free" exotics/shards!
3. Bounty slots are changing to 16 so if you want to stack more, ahead of TTK then you can
4. They have also tweeted that you can increase rep with the gunsmith straight away! If you're interested in a speedy start I would highly recommend doing this as it means once the 15th rolls around you can easily order a middle-tier legendary weapon (albeit you won't get it til a week later).

5. If you care about grimoire then hunt all the wolves etc before Tuesday - they are all going away to be replaced with whatever new things Oryx brings.

EDIT - forgot to add that TTK will go live at 10 a.m. on the Tuesday UK time.
