Say no more, now I know who was in your fireteam, I completely understand what happened hehe

We weren't doing too bad. We were on the 3rd wave of ads and had Nexus down to quarter health. Then as Moog rightly points out, he let both himself, and the team down by dying biggrin

Whilst trying to revive other fallen comrades I might add biggrin But yes the first attempt almost succeeded and then the ads became a bit overwhelming. 300 attack Fatebringer is actually a bit underpowered against level 32 enemies, must get some etheric light as I now need that at 365 yes

I also completely misunderstood (ok, didn't read properly) the "Grounded" modifier - I thought it meant you dealt out more damage whilst on the ground and NOT that you took more damage whilst floating through the air which of course it does. So there's me, serenely jumping and floating over the top of tons of goblins, etc and it's therefore little wonder they took me out quite so easily. Wipe number 2 if you please .... <hangs head in shame>

In news that is easily 7 months old for some, I finally managed to take down Urzok for that final Eris Morn mission. Blinding bubble over his head, a few shotguns to soften him up and an entire Thunderlord clip did the job easily enough. I quite enjoyed the next bit of the mission, something which perhaps gave a clue to what was ultimately delivered in Prison of E. Now just got to wait for Xur to turn up on Friday to be able to hand it all in to give me some gloves that, erm, I don't need thumbup

Nightfalls are all level 32 strikes, so realistically you need to be at least level 30 to have a fair crack at it and that's if you are with some higher level team mates. Much less than that and you won't even be able to damage the enemies and they will obliterate you very quickly indeed.

Ah, fair enough. It's not like I'm struggling to find stuff to do just now.

However, I am sure that plenty of us would be happy to carry you through this week's Nightfall for the rewards (assuming you are a high enough level to participate - you need to be minimum level 29) It can be 2 manned from the ledge without too much bother...

Go for it Moog. I got another Gjally last night from one. I've seen one drop in a NF every week for about 5 weeks. Can you afford not to have a go?

Does anybody ever get anything from the Special Delivery lady at the Tower? I purchased an emblem when I was at some low level and she still has it for sale. However, I have never seen anything else there, maybe she is going out of business? smile

She's where you can pick up special emblems/vehicles/shaders for your secondary and tertiary characters.

Good grief, another one! It seems to be raining GHorns at the moment although there is still a drought over here. I've got one more NF to do, so here's hoping (still)

I've only had one Gjally drop in over 1,200 hours of playing time. I think I've had multiple drops of every other droppable exotic weapon in the game (sometimes 3 or 4).

Well, Rubinho and I just two manned the Nightfall with only one team wipe and got ....

A legendary engram each for our trouble, that's it frown which then decrypted into a sniper rifle I already have frownfrown

Oh well, there is always next week

Edit: to add that we were saved on more than one occasion by Rubinho's self-res. I'm off to go and work on that warlock smile

It would be interesting to see the percentage of kills by each weapon across all Destiny players.

I suspect Gjallarhorn is responsible for well over 75% of mini-boss and boss deaths.
