Destiny (Xbox One)

Nightfall rewards have been fixed, exotics dropping at 310 like crazy. Every single nightfall I've seen with fresh characters, 2 out of every 3 players have had an exotic. It's definitely worth getting on and rotating your alternate characters through it - nightfall was a total joke before now.
The agony of last week's Trials of Osiris has been met by a cooling salve, as wuddie and me both managed to drop 300+ Unseeing Eye machine guns, these things are sweet as f
k. This was what I really wanted from Trials and I've got it, but I'm sort of enjoying it on the good weeks. I feel that to do better, I need to learn more than just shooting faster, I need to learn the maps, the tactics and understand the metas better. It's not a case of being a better shot (though it certainly helps) it's understanding the rock / paper / scissors of the game. I think we get frustrated when we're getting trounced, it's because the other teams have better strats and we're generally up against teams who've probably been doing ToO for a year and we're on what, week 5?

I really would love to get a team together that are willing to play every weekend even if we get battered so that we can gel and then try to compete and get the nice armour pieces.
I love the look of all the trials weapons, the adept versions look even nicer !!

I bought mine, infused a few bits of kit into it and got it to 315. It's immense, not as quick handling or as stable as a Mida Multitool, but it's no a million miles off, the extended mag perk means it's only one round down one the Mida but triple tap more than makes up for that. Firefly is ace, I sort of want to run a hard King's Fall tonight just to see how it fares in a real fight.

Wait!? you didn't have the hung jury? oops! I would have mentioned it weeks ago but just assumed everyone had one :-)There was quite a bit of buzz about it when TTK first came out and people saw what the vendors had.
Morphies - hope you got your family-friendly raid done?
Doubt I can join on Thursday :-( - but good luck!
