[pastel zealot]

yeah

crucible* and gambit too

but. coughs up dust. yknow

[distant oxide]

Whats the best prismatic super to be running now (pve)? Song of flame or stormtrance?

I like song more but if trance has a much better cd or insanely buffed damage since the last time i played i may use that too.

[drifting plinth]

trance is still dogshit

[distant oxide]

so song or novabomb then

[drifting plinth]

nova, song or needlestorm

[distant oxide]

and where can i go to see the cooldown of supers, its still not visible in game

[drifting plinth]

btw, for pve, ignore that

it's only their passive cd

[distant oxide]

it doesnt show the cd anywhere in game anyway, idk where to find that

[drifting plinth]

hover over your super stat

[distant oxide]

doesnt show

every stat besides super does

[marsh whale]

what are the ways to get woven mail ?

[waxen ibex]

song of flame is insanely overtuned and nova/needlestorm are about equal with eachother, needlestorm might be better right now with the artifact mods and also doesnt block teammate bullets

[waxen ibex]

they dont show the base super cooldowns because they are really misleading

like needlestorm/nova bomb have shorter base cooldowns at 500 seconds vs 556 seconds for the roaming supers

yet the roaming supers recharge way faster

since roaming supers gain way more energy from dealing damage than one-off supers

also the super stat now affects all super ability chunk gains

so it increases that damage -> super energy conversion part a ton where it didnt before

[marsh whale]

does mint retrograde apply strand debuff or nah ?

[waxen ibex]

no

not innately

[marsh whale]

what about the temporal blast

[sudden egret]

no

[waxen ibex]

energy acceleration on the artifact technically makes mint stun unstops

[sudden egret]

it can with slice (please don't use slice)

[waxen ibex]

imagine if strand perks were as good as other elements

[marsh whale]

nice ill get slice HAHAHAHHAHA

[waxen ibex]

why

just use malpais

[glad crag]

Unravel my beloved

[woven glen]

Anyone know how to send in a ticket to support ?

I tried and it’s just for a small option of issues so they ignored me lol

I’m just going to send in an ticket for the score thing but these options are so stupid

Some compensation would be nice but I doubt it lol, I’ve had to play on extra hard modifiers all the way from 300-550 in order to get higher tier gear.

[lethal nymph]

I just saw the new bungie tweet, but what did they mean by "- Remove Power Multipliers as a scoring factor in PvE and PvP activities."

Do I still need to grind from 300 all the way to 500 nonetheless if I want to make it into the top 10%?

[woven glen]

Yeah because ultimate gives you more points than grandmaster etc

So you at least need to be able to do ultimate, or maybe if you join someone that can put it on ultimate you should be fine

But for salt mines ya

[lethal nymph]

Rip, probably will just play the event solely to level up then

[waxen ibex]

i hope you realize the loot volume of the game + event rn makes 300-500 power take like 15 hours maybe

and it's a 2 week event

its really not that crazy of a grind

they reactively overbuffed the power climb like over a month ago now

[fast skiff]

what weapons shld i focus for call to arms other than synanceia

[waxen ibex]

none are super outstanding, if you use chappy in pvp trachinus will basically be a legendary chappy considering the nerf

and the spreadshot hc is the only one in the slot

[fast skiff]

mmm

cuz i alr been having a 5/5 for the sword so i was js wonderin if its worth chasing anything else

[waxen ibex]

id farm the spreadshot prob, the rest arent all that special

the rocket and trace are ass

the crossbow is okay but crossbows are mid and i think the raid one is better

the wave frame is great by wave frame standards but wave frames suck

[fast skiff]

i miss the wave frame meta

[waxen ibex]

like personally i got a 5/5 of the wave frame just in case

[mighty cloud]

By any chance does anyone know how to fix frame drops? Ill be running a mission and it will be fine at a steady 65 fps and than it just plumets to 32 fps after like 10 minutes of playing only way ive found to fix it is to restart but than the frames drop once again after 10 minutes

[granite sky]

How do I increase my zone control score? Is it kills? Or capturing flags?

[woven glen]

It’s bugged rn but they fixing soon

[waxen ibex]

if you see those red medals pop up

[cold thorn]

why wont this mission work?

[waxen ibex]

those are like, the only thing increasing your score in pvp other than the general multipliers

[cold thorn]

the barrier was open for my friend earlier but now its closed again

[woven glen]

Can anyone explain this?

My friends and I can’t figure it out

And it’s been making the game a pain in the ass for me ever since I hit 300 level (I’m 550 now)

My friend I’m in discord with rn is getting 2.45 with the same set up, so more than me but still not 2.6mil like eso

We’re both 550

It’s frustrating as hell cause we’ll run score runs for proving ground and I get 2.3mil and rest of my fire team close to 3mil?

[waxen ibex]

hover over this

[woven glen]

Ok one sec

@waxen ibex

[brave arrow]

at what light level do tier 5s drop regularly?

[brave canyon]

470 is when it gets super consistent

[brave arrow]

thanks, only 50 LL to go then

[brave canyon]

Once you’re running ultimate they drop like candy

[brave arrow]

best advice to get LL fast?

lol

[brave canyon]

Do the bonus drop activities

Just rotate between the firetram ops and pinnacle ops with matchmaking

[brave arrow]

alright, I have like probably 30 bonus drops lol

[brave canyon]

Once you run those dry just farm cabals watch

[brave arrow]

gotcha

[brave canyon]

You’ll get 3 drops in ~10 ish minutes

[waxen ibex]

messed with it a bit and i think this is probably just a bug with the forecasting being slightly inaccurate

the final score will be a lot higher than the forecast because of the bonus challenge and the hvt

Destiny 2 Team (@Destiny2Team)

We appreciate the constructive feedback you've been sharing in the day since Call to Arms started. The team has been working to address the following items:

We've deployed the following changes and fixes as a live update:
- Set the Salt Mines activity to only have Taken

X · Nov 13, 2025, 1:48 AM

this live update where they set salt mines to taken only may have also slightly changed something but it's hard to tell

i am guessing it's probably a visual bug

[drowsy oyster]

Would it be wrong to say PVP can be quicker if you’re getting A/A+’s?

[brave canyon]

I mean it just depends on how fast your matches are being finished and if you’re winning or not

[waxen ibex]

it can be, trials especially is stupid fast

comp is fast if queues arent long as well

[brave canyon]

Or does winning not matter

[waxen ibex]

i got like half of my power just farming solemn

[brave canyon]

I really don’t play PvP so I have no idea

[waxen ibex]

you're basically always getting at least a b+ unless you joined in progress and then got 0 kills

[brave canyon]

I see

[waxen ibex]

trials for me is just a guaranteed a+ every game

even if i go 0-5

[timber dagger]

Okay so when I'm just doing a normal casual grind am I just supposed to be doing quick play in fire team ops? I'm just getting the same 5 guns and armor set over and over and nothing else there.

[waxen ibex]

do not do quickplay

quickplay is the worst use of your time right now because it gives shit score

and yes that is just how the portal loot pools are

there's a loot pool for vanguard ops (solo + fireteam), pinnacle ops, and crucible ops

[timber dagger]

What match made activity should we even do now. I feel so lost. Public events don't give loot anymore either. Public events/patrols/bounties used to be my favorite chill way to play.

Pinnacle ops has no matchmaking sadly

[waxen ibex]

when was the last time public events gave anything of value

they've been 1 blue item and 20k glimmer since like witch queen at least idk

[timber dagger]

It used to be a good space to get purples when doing heroics while doing your patrols and bounties and hunting down chests. It made for a nice flow.

[waxen ibex]

there is matchmaking on the coil

[waxen ibex]

when was the last time you played i genuinely havent done this since like shadowkeep

outside of like, farming the neomuna patterns

im kinda just lost at what you're referencing there

they did update the world drop pool in tfs i guess but for most of the game the world drop pool was pretty outdated

[timber dagger]

Also can't matchmake onslaught whenever anymore

[waxen ibex]

the matchmade activity in pinnacle ops rotates between coil/onslaught/challenge of the elders daily

the actual onslaught in vanguard tab is gone with the brave weapons

a lot of this they did say was leaving at the end of tfs year well in advance

[timber dagger]

I'm a returning player.

Idk I just hate that you can't reliably have activities stay relevant

[waxen ibex]

you'll find a large part of the playerbase does not want to have to go do an activity weekly they dont personally enjoy for powerfuls and that's why they even tried a big shift like this in the first place

anyway a lot of this is getting walked back in renegades which is in about a month

not that they're going to bring back seasonal shit they deleted

[timber dagger]

Ooooo what's changing with that?

[waxen ibex]

they already said even before EoF that things like nightfall ciphers aren't being discontinued and will be used in renegades which i'd interpret as GMs all but being planned to come back for example, there's not going to be major course correcting from what was already planned since there's just not time to do that

but a lot of the stuff missing in EoF's system changes has mostly been stuff they just couldn't/didnt have the time to do prior

the game isn't going to just become tfs again though

any major changes from what was already planned just cannot possibly happen any sooner than like 3+ months out

[pulsar hemlock]

when does the store bring back ornaments that is not currently availbe in the store rn ?

[waxen ibex]

ornaments are removed from the shop and enter the bright dust pool the season after they are released and then are added to the archive the season after

i guess with the longer seasons now it's staged by shop refreshes rather than 'seasons'

[pulsar hemlock]

im mainly looking for the gjallahorn skin with the lazer, it came out 3 years ago maybe?

but its not in the store

[waxen ibex]

oh yeah stuff that is that old sometimes just randomly rotates in and out of the archive

idk how that works

[waxen ibex]

OK I looked back and apparently the 30th anniversary ornaments rarely come back

Like they have maybe twice since their release

So idk when it'd next be available

[pulsar hemlock]

it was availbe before ash and iron

[frozen siren]

Is No Time To Explain still viable in current era? (For PVP, PVE would be a nice-to-have.)

[turbid sorrel]

nop

[waxen ibex]

it's pretty much tied to how good 340 pulses are and singlehandedly got them nerfed to need 6 headshots to kill instead of 5c1b

and then elsies did it again

[turbid sorrel]

theyre only good if u can hit all crits for the 2 burst

[frozen siren]

I've been having fun melting people from halfway across the map

All headshot two taps are juicy

[waxen ibex]

ntte is still a 340 pulse with outstanding stats, it's just not the best pulse archetype unless you're playing perfect

[frozen siren]

So it's a top shelf 340, but it's a 340 in current era

[waxen ibex]

also the exotic perk i dont think helps ever really so i'd rather use a normal 340 like elsies

[turbid sorrel]

the perk actually helps

its basically a free radar

it tells u or points in the direction the player is

[waxen ibex]

fair

elsies rifle has desperado though

[turbid sorrel]

if u want to pulse use rapids or last thursday honing 190 weapon stat

[waxen ibex]

oh yeah isnt that rapid pulse buff making them disgusting soon

[turbid sorrel]

outbreak if u cant be a normal person too

[waxen ibex]

outbreak if you played the d1 beta

d1 beta veteran

deployed to the cosmodrome

[turbid sorrel]

surprised its getting buffed tbh

[frozen siren]

I don't think you can get LT without EOF...

[turbid sorrel]

theyre already pre balanced

[turbid sorrel]

this is true

[waxen ibex]

also bxr

still disgusting

[turbid sorrel]

nah i left it out for a reason

we dont need people knowing bout it

[waxen ibex]

@frozen siren if you do really like 340 pulses you can try stars in shadow

it almost gets to elsies rifle stat monster levels at tier 5 and gets similar perk rolls

elsies rifle is just better though, sadly not farmable rn

[frozen siren]

My standards are kinda low lmao

I've been popping off with a Vigilance wing most of my time in PVE

[waxen ibex]

if you want a rapid pulse your options are gonna be like

darkest before and oversoul edict prob

[frozen siren]

Really, I don't know the ins and outs of F2P PVP

Since i've been stuck with the following

Mida Multi Tool Sacred Dawn

[turbid sorrel]

theres a lot of good rapids

[frozen siren]

Suros Regime

[waxen ibex]

ha you wish being f2p was the problem here

[frozen siren]

And Vig Wing

I'm also just a mega blueberry so any advice is appreciated

[waxen ibex]

they just made most of the good weapons not target farmable right now because of the loot pool nuke

off to xur jail!

[frozen siren]

😭

[waxen ibex]

like out of the entire rapid pulse pool

[turbid sorrel]

scalar potential / piece of mind / horrors least are probs the best ones

[waxen ibex]

the ones you can actually farm for are darkest before, oversoul edict, and legacy focusing autumn wind

[turbid sorrel]

oversoul/scalar are practically identical tho so yea

[waxen ibex]

2/3 of those are in xur jail and horrors least is in the like 20 weapon nightfall weapon pool so basically unfarmable

[turbid sorrel]

funny enough

[frozen siren]

I have a horror's least lmao

[turbid sorrel]

we still dont have a rapid exotic

[turbid sorrel]

wot roll

[frozen siren]

Nothing good I don't think

[waxen ibex]

wtf roll is even good on that thing

[turbid sorrel]

perp kc

[waxen ibex]

i swear it was like perpmo kill clip yeah

[frozen siren]

My rolls are especially bad under pressure and turnabout

[turbid sorrel]

unlucky

[frozen siren]

At least I have a good shotgun (I think?)

Macro tool with threat detector + opening shot

[waxen ibex]

i actually would rep darkest before over horror's least

[frozen siren]

You know what though, wih my subpar weapons

[waxen ibex]

oh oops wrong barrel on darkest before

[frozen siren]

I'm still managing a >1.0 kd

So I guess I have that going for me

[weak cave]

why are the rest still locked?

I dont have that quest even in my inventory

[waxen ibex]

there we go

[turbid sorrel]

get to 470

need to unlock ultimate

[waxen ibex]

darkest before has a juicer statline because they gave y1 endgame weapons sauce

[weak cave]

im 550?

[waxen ibex]

and i always loved how that gun feels

[turbid sorrel]

oh then i dunno

[frozen siren]

I'm also a complete maniac since I refuse to not use stormcaller

[weak cave]

rip

[waxen ibex]

also its easy to farm since it's just prophecy

[frozen siren]

Ok... should I just try and do Savathun's Spire GM with 500 power?

Because holy hell, going over 500 power is a nightmare

[waxen ibex]

uh

GM is capped at like

[frozen siren]

Savathun is 510

[waxen ibex]

oh the conquest

[frozen siren]

Yeah

The Seasonal Conquest

[waxen ibex]

actually wait wdym going over 500 power is a nightmare

[frozen siren]

Maybe I shouldn't be playing crucible for power lmao...

That's on me

[waxen ibex]

at 500+ i was still gaining like +1 avg power per 3 bonus engram solo op

[drifting plinth]

i got the past 20 levels of this in crucible

and i played like 3h

[waxen ibex]

they made this game too easy

[drifting plinth]

sooo

[waxen ibex]

just go spend all your 3 stacked bonus engram solo ops/fireteam ops

[drifting plinth]

i wanted to also get arms week weapons

getting 550 wasnt my primary goal

[waxen ibex]

oh i replied to wrong person

oops

[drifting plinth]

oh

[waxen ibex]

4 +2s per run from a 3 bonus engram activity that drops 1 item averages out to like +1 avg power per run if you dont get dupes

and im convinced they reduced the amount of dupes you get

[frozen siren]

So just suck it up and get to 510

Noted

[waxen ibex]

also reclaim is just

highly spammable for 3 +2s a run without bonus engrams stored

[frozen siren]

I do have all my reclaims with +3's...

[waxen ibex]

idk i was like half falling asleep today and went 500-510 in an hour

didnt feel that hard to me at least lol

[frozen siren]

What build should I bring out of the two i have for reclaims

My boots of assembler heal spam, or starfire fusion spam

[waxen ibex]

that depends on the boons

just abuse boons

complete burgermaxxing 6x damage to everything it's awesome

[frozen siren]

Wha?

[jovial hare]

is auger still meta?

just got it

[turbid sorrel]

yes

go do catty quest

gluck its tedious

[waxen ibex]

many of the boon modifiers are massive damage increases and they stack multiplicatively

[jovial hare]

take a long time?

[waxen ibex]

heavyweight/grenadier/brawler alone just flat out double the damage of that source

[mossy delta]

anyone else having bugged protected enemies, like all drones destroyed but still cant kill them??

[turbid sorrel]

just a lot of reruns

cos it makes u backtrack a lot

[waxen ibex]

with just grenadier i was onetapping the reclaim bosses with handheld supernova

boons are goated

[turbid sorrel]

we love grenadier

[waxen ibex]

grenadier + prismatic getaway artist build

literally dont even use guns anymore

walk around and everything on screen dies

[frozen siren]

How do I farm reclaim most effectively, anyway? Customize and find a fireteam, or matchmake?

[waxen ibex]

uhh if cabals watch is the matchmade one i just matchmake

unless the modifiers suck

most days it has like one good boon and then i can just cakewalk through it

[frozen siren]

All we got for boons is fallen bunker full throttle

[waxen ibex]

full throttle is a giant damage buff but you lose it on death

that alone doubles your damage at 100 stacks

[frozen siren]

I mean uhhhh... healer build...

Means people don't die often when i run it, so...

Stonks...?

[waxen ibex]

yeah i mean just do that and then you probably just blow the bosses up with mint or a rocket or w/e

[frozen siren]

Don't own a Mint. Wish I did tho

[waxen ibex]

doing double damage makes things real easy

[frozen siren]

As it stands best i can do is a Malpais + Mini Tool combo

[waxen ibex]

for a little context on auger being meta rn, it's mostly meta for only thundercrash titans

it doesnt do a ton of damage on its own but it does generate a lot of super energy relative to other swap weapons and tcrash is so overtuned that it's just good for spamming tcrashes

even nighthawk is weak enough that it's better to use parasite on hunter/warlock

[waxen ibex]

yea that's fine

malpais is just a more green mint

[mossy citrus]

What’s the fastest way to hit 550 light level? I really wanna grind the new event and get the helmet but I’m really struggling

[waxen ibex]

the event itself gives a lot of drops, reclaim is still great for drops, you should always run anything that has 3 bonus engrams sitting

[mossy citrus]

will that help get me to 550 fast?

[waxen ibex]

300-400 should only be like 5-6 hours at most, 400-500 is maybe more like 10

[mossy citrus]

I’m 358

[waxen ibex]

ok so just do stuff that gives drops

ex: matchmade reclaim

the faster you go the better, make sure you're always scoring well

[mossy citrus]

I’m always hitting around A

[waxen ibex]

300-400 is +4 drops the whole way just for getting A ranks, meaning every 2 drops should be +1 power assuming no dupes

[mossy citrus]

Okay thanks man

Really appreciate it

[waxen ibex]

it shouldn't be that slow, speedrunning solo ops isnt worth it over just spamming cabals watch or something

but bonus engrams are always priority since that's just way more drops for the time spent usually

also if you like crucible it's very good for getting power as well, especially trials on weekends

[mossy citrus]

Is trials this week?

[waxen ibex]

every weekend

[mossy citrus]

Oh okay

Thank you

[pulsar hemlock]

so if i reach 12k+ points i will get 100 points?

[woven glen]

Nah it never is, it’s usually accurate and then the +15% time bonus

My friends get 3mil+ I get 2.3-2.6

When we’re in same fire team with same modifiers. Even when I get most kills and orbs created

[waxen ibex]

might be a fireteam issue then i have no idea

[waxen ibex]

yes but that threshold could rise by the end of the event too

[woven glen]

Yeah I sent in ticket but doubt they’ll answer, I sent it in under “missing silver” lol

[woven glen]

If the event ends and that’s still the score for top 30% yeah

[pulsar hemlock]

so how do i reach a high score? do i just need to finish these quickly as possible?

[woven glen]

Top 10*

[waxen ibex]

you put more modifiers on to raise the score

and play in higher difficulties

power is a massive component of scoring

[pulsar hemlock]

i see

i have to increase my power level? im able to launch ultimate missions rn

[waxen ibex]

what mode is that score for

is that just zone control

[pulsar hemlock]

yeah

[waxen ibex]

in crucible you just need more medals

also have max valor rank

[pulsar hemlock]

but im asking it as a whole not specifically for curcible

[waxen ibex]

for everything else just stack modifiers on ultimate difficulty

they are removing considering your power soon but right now being 550 also matters

[pulsar hemlock]

i see

im at like 535 rn, i just gotta infuse my shit

[waxen ibex]

oh you dont have to wear the gear

it goes off the highest power you own not what you're wearing

it used to be what you're wearing but that sucked so they changed it

[versed ferry]

are protected banes not immune to supers or is that something unique to Sol Invictus?

[waxen ibex]

isnt that just the frontal shield one

because a lot of aoe effects will just hit them anyway since the shield doesnt like fully cover the legs, sunspots especially will just hit them anyway

[versed ferry]

Protected is referring to the ones that have three little drones orbiting them

[waxen ibex]

oh idk sunspots might be bypassing that

[versed ferry]

I know sol invictus allows you to bypass certain Solo Op boss shields

[waxen ibex]

it's probably the same thing

[versed ferry]

just something to note since it looks like you can use it to fix the softlock

since there's a bug where protected banes will be unkillable

[high lily]

bug

its hitting through immune shields aswell

[versed ferry]

just wanted to make sure since I managed to kill an unkillable protected by popping Hammer of Sol right next to it

[marsh whale]

what do people use snipers for in pve ?

[high lily]

high health targets like champs or damage rotations

but Mint Retrograde exists so no reason to use them

[waxen ibex]

right now nothing lol

[sudden egret]

shoot to loot

[marsh whale]

so did people use snipers before mint retrograde or still no

[pearl plinth]

they haven't been great in a while

[marsh whale]

so are they just for pvp or what

[high lily]

people used the GoS sniper

[sudden egret]

gotta go back to final shape season when we had sniper artifact perks

[woven tree]

its a 70% chance we have sniper meditation in renegades i guess

[sudden egret]

it was mentioned so very likely

[woven tree]

[pearl plinth]

and there's that heavy sniper

[woven tree]

succesion?

[pearl plinth]

the Refurbished A499

succession is not a heavy weapon

[little pewter]

succession is special ammo

[marsh whale]

how do i get the khostov exotic

[little pewter]

its a lengthy "secret" quest, i recommend googling a guide

[cerulean sail]

There's no quest

[cinder rapids]

Got an issue. Honestly at this point idk if its an issue or a blessing. My game wont launch lol

what to do

[little pewter]

elaborate, does it give you an error message, or does it just not launch

are you launching via a shortcut or directly from steam

[cinder rapids]

Pressing play on steam. says playing. just doesnt start anything at all turns back to green "Play"

[little pewter]

try validating files

[marsh whale]

is new land beyond a sniper or a shotgun ?

[little pewter]

sniper

[steel sundial]

sniper

i'm curious as to what made you ask this

[marsh whale]

it looks like a shotgun

[cinder rapids]

Didnt work. same issue

[cinder rapids]

[flint magnet]

Is call to arm 2 or 3w event?

[high lily]

2 weeks

events have been 2 weeks since Edge of Fate

Festival was 3 weeks because they extended it due to a softlock

[flint magnet]

2w to get 40 lvl??????

brother what

[high lily]

its been 2 days and im already level 16 from a few hours

it doesnt take long

[flint magnet]

hmmm alright

cause i prob do the last week of it

[jovial hare]

yeah i’m hunter lmao

what’s a good lil dps set up for a hunter

[waxen ibex]

well

where are you using this

like 6 man content?

or solo

ngl in 6 man content as hunter you're gonna be stuck on the tractor cannon/gjally lol

if it's possible, grapple melee is extremely optimal

otherwise mint parasite type of shit:

[high lily]

wait, weezer rifle? Finite Maybe is actually being used?

[waxen ibex]

@jovial hare keeping in mind this is solely koregos which is an extremely long damage phase,

hunter is prob gonna be on the support roles in most cases

if it's a short damage phase grapple punch will work well but you're limited by combination blow timer

mint parasite is still just among the best damage strategies in the game right now even though it's not listed here

hunter is just fairly weak in raid teams rn

renegades turbobuffing still hunt will change that though

[waxen ibex]

yeah? finite maybe is pretty good

aggressive fusions are quite good in pve, better total damage than rapids with a range limit

fusions also have a weird minor scalar it uses really well

it's a fair bit better than zealots and prob the best fusion in the slot

only better fusions are in kinetic slot

[pulsar hemlock]

when is barrowed dyad coming ?

[pulsar hemlock]

can u test senguine with gally?

[waxen ibex]

this is from aegis' testing for day 1 epic raid race and sanguine gjally isnt super relevant to that

[north pike]

i quit d2 in the middle of like july and now im back and the season banner is ash and iron, did a new season start do i need to buy smt whats going on

[high lily]

Ash and Iron was the major update that came out, which added a new reward pass and a f2p activity with a few variants

[north pike]

so whens the renegade or something coming out is everything generally the same

[waxen ibex]

i think sanguine gjally is also worse than PK titan and LP hunter

[high lily]

december 2nd is when Renegades releases

[weak cave]

damn if only not a bug

[north pike]

so is it worth grinding now or do i wait for renegade to release

[high lily]

up to you

theres an event currently going that rewards an exclusive helmet and emblem

[waxen ibex]

power is not resetting

also paid seasons arent a thing anymore

you buy the reward pass premium track if you want the shit on it and that's it really

[north pike]

yo also is the game dying like i remmeber last time i was on this chat was not this dead

[waxen ibex]

player counts are down but that's because the game hasnt changed a whole lot since july

renegades is out in a month and will bring some actual changes and not bandaid fixes

[jovial hare]

i know right wtf happened

dude

[waxen ibex]

they just announced they are buffing still hunt nighthawk damage by like 66%

[jovial hare]

hunter were the actual fucking class during final shape

[waxen ibex]

you'll live

[jovial hare]

HOLY SHIT

WE ARE SO BACK

[jovial hare]

when will that happen

[waxen ibex]

still hunt will be doing rocket dps

100k total damage

fucking hilarious buff

[jovial hare]

yeah that’s huge

[north pike]

whats the most meta pve build for hunter rn?

last time it was like the grapple melee thing

[zinc basin]

is tier 6 actually a confirmed bug rn? will it change back to tier 5 on the next update or something?

[rancid fern]

40%, 50% would’ve removed the original nerf.

[north pike]

??

[rancid fern]

It’s still grapple.

[north pike]

grapple melee the same thing>

and hoil cyrt?

[brave canyon]

Yup but I would certainly have a good nighthawk DPS build ready to go if you plan on doing contest dungeon. Still Hunt buffs are gonna make it stronger than it was at TFS launch and we all knew to beat contest SE it was 5 hunters so we’ll see what kind of bosses we get in the new dungeon.

[rancid fern]

40% isn’t even reverting the nerf, the only way it’d possibly do more is from the artifact.

[brave canyon]

Wasn’t the nerf 33%?

And I’d have to imagine if they mentioned the artifact perk that it’s going to be on the next artifact but I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

[rancid fern]

Yes it was 33%, but to undo that you’d have to buff it 50%.

[brave canyon]

Oh silly me I guess I can’t math

I did take algebra 1 three years in a row in middle school and high school

[turbid sorrel]

i mean with weapon stat + seasonal bonus

youre already there

its better than pre nerf

[strong relic]

Are lost sectors the best way to farm new exotics?

[fast otter]

wich one has better perks?

and what perks should i use?

[waxen ibex]

It's 61% including the change to make it benefit from artifact perk

And that change is only happening because renegades is going to be 6 months of sniper artifact

Soooo

[waxen ibex]

This is just a bad rocket BTW, neither roll is very good either

[fast otter]

those 2 are the only ones i have rn

[waxen ibex]

OK and what I'm saying is folded root sucks

Even cynosure which you can just legacy focus at zavala is better

Haliaetus is way better

[quartz radish]

any of these worth getting?

[waxen ibex]

The wave frame gl would have been generational 2 years ago and spreadshots are op even though phoneutria's rolls aren't phenomenal

The sword is also the only eager edge sword you can take into conquests and is just very good for a sword in general

[quartz radish]

alright

[waxen ibex]

Basically no most of the weapons aren't that special, the good ones are like potential man memes

Phoneutria is the only actually good gun there currently

[pulsar hemlock]

why is gally so bad???

i want to use it

but literally nothing in the meta consists of it

[waxen ibex]

Do you like, understand what gjally does

It is not at all bad, but it's a utility weapon

[pulsar hemlock]

shoot to explode ads

[waxen ibex]

Gjally on its own does a lot less damage than most rockets for multiple different reasons

[pulsar hemlock]

and the explosion has special small rockets

[waxen ibex]

Its entire purpose is to buff other rockets

Gjally gives the entire fireteam's rockets wolfpack seekers

So you use 1 gjally and 5 rockets that are actually good

Because gjally is about a 21% damage buff to legendary rockets

[pulsar hemlock]

so thats all it does? buff other rockets? im assuming it does bad in a solo run?

[waxen ibex]

When solo it is much worse than other rockets at everything but add clear

Just being a proximity detonation rocket means it's not that good on its own for bosses

Actual gjally barely pushes 40k total damage and 2.4k dps, hezen does like 60k total damage and 5.8k dps with gjally buff

Gjally's one upside outside of buffing other rockets is the seekers have a stupid high minor scalar and the catalyst makes it make more seekers on add kills so it's good at clearing adds

[pearl plinth]

and it also looks and sounds cool

[blissful walrus]

this post says they've deployed these changes, is the in game UI just not updated to show the changes?

[lament summit]

can you wellskate with synanceia?

[harsh jackal]

will i always get tier 5 when i reach 450

[broken forge]

not in the traditional way, apparently theres tech to make you go vertical but i dont think it ended up having much practicality, but outside of that, it wont work as well as an eager edge vortex/adaptive frame sword

[sudden egret]

Only with light attack so you don’t go as fast

[hearty owl]

What’s a good tier 5 hand canon

[pastel zealot]

agape from kepler

these are the most popular hand cannons rn, and theyre all tiered

[pulsar portal]

Can you still get choir of one from the exotic mission. I ran it with my buddy last night and didn’t get it

[hearty owl]

How do I get tier 5s

I’m at 500+ power

Whenever I do a sieve I get only tier 4s

[pearl plinth]

what guardian rank are you

iirc you need to be like rank 9 to get 5s consistently

[deft granite]

Claim the other 450 tier upgrade from the Altar of Relativity, be in Mythic difficulty

[hearty owl]

505

[rancid fern]

You can with a high enough score (1.15 mill). Random drops will continue to be random tiers.

[lusty forum]

were buddies the only things that recieved grenade scaling? What about ionic sentrys?

[deft granite]

Ionic Sentry is a buddy

[lusty forum]

oh ok ty

[glad viper]

What is the best way to farm holofoil weapons for this event?

[ornate halo]

You can skate with the right and left click but the right click doesnt really do much

It sends you slightly up

Left click is same though of course

[drifting plinth]

it's literally worse than a mountaintop jump btw @lament summit

[ornate halo]

Yeah its some cheeks

0 use cases

[drifting plinth]

yeah

i've tried the light skate as well

it sucks

id rather just heavy skate with a vortex

[ornate halo]

I mean the light is equivalent to the light of anything else

[drifting plinth]

or heck, an adaptive

[simple zinc]

is this a bug that i completed a gr10 challenge when im only gr8?

now i'm stuck with the perma notification when i'm in orbit

[drifting plinth]

it's a bug

just get gr9 and claim that challenge

[tight widget]

whats the deal w/ all bows in CtA activities?
I dont see a mod associated w/ this?

[pastel zealot]

wdym mod?

[remote iron]

wait with the score percentile changing does that mean if we do the activities less and less we'll lose our points? or does that just make it harder to push for more scores later on?

i ask this because i just hit 331 points am i safe for the entire event for getting emblem and helmet or what?

[drifting plinth]

you might be safe

[remote iron]

point multiplier

[tight widget]

where does it show this?

[remote iron]

it gives a 5 green arrow multiplier

so what you do is just grab any easy ability spam build, equip all bows and/or crossbow and run saltmines or whatever activity

[glad viper]

I’m at 700 points and don’t feel safe

[remote iron]

yeah i feel you, the way they're wording it is so confusing why not just have our max points locked in from the start?

[glad viper]

It depends on the highest scores attained which theoretically do max out at a certain number of points with all hardest modifiers, completed in time for 15% bonus etc

[tight widget]

funny thing is I dislike bows so much, Ive always dismantled them 😂
guess I need to farm for an energy bow, I do have a crossbow

[glad viper]

They are also changing all boons to not take away from score and making the different equipment modifiers to all give +5 like bows

So it’s going to be easier to get higher scores next week

[remote iron]

just grab any bow you have on you in your vault and grab the strand exotic bow from starcrossed

[pastel zealot]

and put on a crossbow

[remote iron]

scott mentioned already having one thankfully

[glad viper]

Yeah if you wanna max score right now you gotta do the bow modifier and just use an ability spam build

Or you could wait until Tuesday and use a variety of weapons

[remote iron]

i personally used the good ol hammer bonk solar build with wormgod

[tight widget]

seen Eso run that for a 3M score

[remote iron]

it also let me cheese the final taken boss in salt mines cause the fire pool damage breaks their immunity shield

[remote iron]

yeah i hit 2.8M

just pray to the rng gods that the bonus objective you get is either defeat combatants or get ability kills. if its the precision kills one just relaunch

[tidal merlin]

Which mod gives more damage? 100x full throttle or slayer?

[drifting plinth]

100x full

[tidal merlin]

Sweet. Also, wavesplitter has no catalyst slot?

[tight widget]

best activity to farm a non-exotic bow?
I need either a Kinetic or Energy-based bow.
nope... I dismantled the dozens dropped from FotL events 🙂

[high lily]

Wait until bungie increases the other loadout modifiers to match the bow one

[pastel zealot]

solo/ft ops for mercury-a (kinetic) and pinnacle ops for pre-astyanax (solar)

[pastel zealot]

it should

[woven glen]

Do you know why you’re at 2.6 and I am capped at 2.3? Sorry I keep asking the same question just wondering if others have an opinion

It’s nerfing me really hard for this event, not to mention it made my leveling grind take twice as long as it should and I always had to play with all hard modifiers on to get A

[remote iron]

oh i mightve messed with the modifiers a little bit cause i only did it once, got my 2.8M and moved on

[woven glen]

Ya I have all max modifier on

And it’s only 2.3

[remote iron]

strange wait whats you're light level?

[woven glen]

550

[remote iron]

and its on ultimate right?

[woven glen]

Yes sir

[remote iron]

wow ok that's actually so weird

[woven glen]

Yup 😭

[remote iron]

try and do a full run of salt mines

do it as fast as you can too with side obejective complete

[woven glen]

Been trying to figure it out for over a month w my friends

[remote iron]

and let us know what score you get

[woven glen]

Yeah I did

2.8 with killing the ad

2.5 ish without the ad

6min run

[remote iron]

ok then you're good for now

[woven glen]

It should be over 3mil with the ad

I want top 1% haha

[remote iron]

my guess

[woven glen]

With ad and 2.6mil base is a 3.3mil score

[remote iron]

is that with the gradual score percentile increase its tough to hit the 1%

[woven glen]

But for proving grounds and the coil

I did score runs with all max and only got 2.4mil, rest of my fire team closer to 3mil

[remote iron]

i did hear they are changing how the modifiers effect our scoring tho in an upcoming update, this might help us all push for the 1%

[woven glen]

Same exact fire team like what typa bullshit

[remote iron]

wait you all got different scores too?! thats so horrible oh my godddd

[woven glen]

Yeah

Cause my base is lower

Even with same modifiers as everyone else

[coarse saddle]

Is Hefnd's Vengeance actually bugged over the past 3 week I've played it 387 times and it's actually physically impossible to beat

[rancid fern]

Not that I’m aware of. Have you really attempted it 387 times with no completions?

[pulsar hemlock]

why do i get a turn back timer when i go past the circle

?

and when i first came here i couldnt even see the chalice

[coarse saddle]

389 as of right now

[rancid fern]

Are you aware of how the mechanic works that wipes you?

[pastel zealot]

do you.. know what youre doing?

[coarse saddle]

Oh I know what im doing just seems like the fireteam members im with don't as they always seem to waste all revives at the jumping puzzle

We were just at the boss and 3 times melee was bugged for the wipe mechanic

[rancid fern]

You can’t all slap the same one.

White can be slapped, green has already been slapped.

You can also suspend the immune ones, not sure if they’re vulnerable to disorient or blind though.

[odd robin]

when will they fix the power effecting score?

i just got top 30 while my teammates got top 10 just cuz of my light level :/

[rancid fern]

Most likely never, that’s what the entire portal scoring is based around.

[odd robin]

i meant for the event, they said they would fix it but i thought theyd do it with the daily reset

[rancid fern]

If you’re lucky they might do something just before it ends.

You can’t expect an immediate fix at this stage of the game.

[high lily]

Probably weekly reset, unless they do a hotfix

They have acknowledged it so

[odd robin]

well in the meantime whats the fastest way to 550?

[rancid fern]

Complete activities with bonus drops and aim for A grade scores.

[coral cedar]

Can you get 100% damage resistance if you have weave walk and amplified?

[rancid fern]

There’s no cap on damage resistance, you just get less the higher you go.

[coarse saddle]

405 tries still no completion

[high lily]

of..?

[coarse saddle]

Hefnd's Vengeance

[high lily]

get a full fireteam

[coarse saddle]

Had a full fireteam for every attempt

[high lily]

then get a better build

not much you can do outside of that

[steel sundial]

405…?

[high lily]

also yea, 405 seems like a very very high number

[coarse saddle]

Nothing wrong with the build just need teammates that don't waste all 3 revives on a jumping puzzle

[high lily]

what is your build

[coarse saddle]

That 405 is over the span of 3 weeks

[steel sundial]

then yeah better teammates

[high lily]

could also be their build though

theres been a few people in here whove had trouble with activities, say their build isnt the problem and it very much being part of the problem

[steel sundial]

i’ll give em the benefit of the doubt but i’d like to see the build too at least

[barren kraken]

Is this any kind of bug?

Nvm i exited the activity

[high lily]

youre supposed to go to the bottom

[barren kraken]

I did, the boss did too

There was no taken well to break the shield

[rustic fossil]

In "Call to Arms" update, to get the Ornament we need 100 points, so we will get that at the end of the event but not now, Am I thinking right?

[barren kraken]

I think you get the ornament as soon as u hit 100

[high lily]

at the end of the event

[surreal pond]

How do you kill this thing

that refuses to die

[unborn cloak]

that's a barrier champion

use anti-barrier weapons or abilities on its shield to break it before it regenerates health, which stuns it and lets you kill it

[upbeat ravine]

how do you get choir of one catalyst

[barren kraken]

Bows, Scout rifles

[unborn cloak]

by doing choir of one until it drops

[surreal pond]

I cant change them right now

and most likely I dont have any on me

what abilitites do I need?

[unborn cloak]

you can check in the character menu, next to your weapons iirc

[upbeat ravine]

ah wasn’t sure if there was a certain way to get the catalyst

[unborn cloak]

either oneshot every anti-barrier champ you find or restart the activity after getting a proper loadout for it

[unborn cloak]

the symbols on the left

the topmost one is anti-barrier

[high lily]

then youll have to leave the activity and change your artifact perks, so you can break barrier shields

[unborn cloak]

the second is anti-unstoppable and the third is anti-overload

[surreal pond]

whats that

artifact

[high lily]

the artifact is the slot below your ghost

anti-champion perks are in the first column

[barren kraken]

Solar radiant effects
Unraveling rounds
Volatile rounds

That works for barrier champs too

[surreal pond]

would this do it?

I need to do devils lair

[odd robin]

im really confused, will i get the helmet or no?

[barren kraken]

The first one can do the trick for barrier, but you need to know if other kind of champ is going to appear

[surreal pond]

^

[deft granite]

At the end of the event yes, assuming you keep your placements in top 10% and whatnot by then (which you should since they’re not too hard to catch up on)

[unborn cloak]

the game tells you what enemy types will appear

in the modifiers

[barren kraken]

Combatant adjustments to be specific

[barren kraken]

Overcharged and Barrier

[surreal pond]

barrier and overload

[barren kraken]

You need an auto rifle

You right my bad

[barren kraken]

I got them mixed

[barren kraken]

Good enough

[odd robin]

oh okay thanks! i was mostly confused by the top part where it says 30/210

[barren kraken]

If you can get radiant by shooting the auto rifle you can beat the barrier with the ahab char too

[deft granite]

Yeah it’s a weird visual, it’s just telling you how many points you’re missing (180) for the next reward, the emblem

[tulip tulip]

guys a question why did i get a tier 6 ?

[unborn cloak]

holofoil tier 5s are dropping as tier 6s for some reason

they dont do anything except have an extra 2% damage boost

[tulip tulip]

well good to know, thanks

[odd robin]

super weird, anyone know if bungie has said anything on that?

[deft granite]

Nah

[surreal pond]

Maybe stupid question but is my task harder because I am doing fireteam devils lair and its not giving me 2 other people I am always alone

[sudden egret]

Are you doing conquest?

[surreal pond]

idk whats that

[sudden egret]

where are you launching devils lair from?

[surreal pond]

fireteam

I thought it would give me 2 other people

[sudden egret]

you can launch it from world map -> cosmodrome map to get matchmaking

[surreal pond]

then what fireteam in portal do?

[sudden egret]

give portal rewards

[surreal pond]

whats the difference between portal solo and fireteam

[sudden egret]

launching it from the map doesn't give any good rewards

[surreal pond]

if it doesnt give you a fireteam

[sudden egret]

yeah but you can bring a team with you

solo is strictly solo

[surreal pond]

thats stupid

[sudden egret]

lots of people use the in game fireteam finder or lfg to get a team

the game doesn't have a high enough population to have matchmaking for every activity

[surreal pond]

I did it like this

everything is melting

compared to fireteam one

[sudden egret]

yeah, it's suppose to be easy and there's no good rewards from it

it's just to get the quest done

[surreal pond]

also stupid

more people should = harder

[sudden egret]

well, you are suppose to bring a team to the fireteam one

it also rotates daily which ones do have matchmaking

[upbeat ravine]

what’s a good weapon to pair with choir one? i don’t wanna use 2 special weapons

[sudden egret]

choir is meant to be used like a primary so any thing that's primary you pair with it won't be used

because choir will kill stuff faster

[upbeat ravine]

gotcha

[forest kelp]

whats a good heavy weapon to use for SD final boss

[sudden egret]

parasite or finality. You prob don't have the latter if you are farming it tho.

paired with mint

[forest kelp]

whats mint?

[distant oxide]

do coldsnap grenades not stun any kind of champion? it doesnt say it stuns X champion when i hover over it like other abilities/keywords do. (Coldsnap grenades cause freeze/shatter only, no slow)

and do threadlings cause any keywords?

[atomic ravine]

Hi! What would be good alternatives for sweet business? I want to have exotic heavy weapon. I'm using actium war rig so I guess bigger mag is better but idk

[ornate halo]

shatter still does anti-champ idk which one its either ol or unstop. threadlings dont do anything against champs as for keywords idk

[drifting plinth]

they stun overloads

[distant oxide]

whats better for dps, weavers call or hellion (prismatic warlock aspects)

[drifting plinth]

use both

[distant oxide]

i know weavers got a buff recently

[ornate halo]

certainly hellion if you have to pick one

[distant oxide]

ok good to know

[drifting plinth]

unless doing a halieatus build

then id probably run weaver's

[turbid sorrel]

hali gettin nerfed in renegades

well braytech origin is

[surreal pond]

I have all expansions (excluding 3 dungeon keys, and my prophecy is not ultimate edition), how much more could I get out of the game if I had some silver to spend?

[drifting plinth]

a decent bit

the final shape dungeons are fun

[surreal pond]

I need to buy final shape dungeons?

[drifting plinth]

you asked what you could do if you had some silver to spend

the 3 dungeon keys are the only content you can buy with silver

[surreal pond]

sorry I thought about something else

[dark mango]

if you have all dlcs there’s nothing else to buy that gives access to more content

aside from dungeon keys

[surreal pond]

I thought maybe you could get some items with silver, because last 10 items I found and tried to look on how to get them supposedly are not obtainable (:

[dark mango]

just cosmetics

can’t get actual loot for silver

[drifting plinth]

what hunter build to run for hypernet conquest?

[dark mango]

base cyrt

mint choir prob

[drifting plinth]

i saw esoterikks vid

imma run malpais

seems to work really well

[dark mango]

yeah malp is good too

renewal would also work for dr stacking

[drifting plinth]

im just going to copy esoterriks build

[waxen ibex]

The dungeon keys have unique loot pools and the exotics are generally solid

That's the only thing that isn't cosmetic silver will get you

[verbal crypt]

does nighthawk cayde’s retribution get buffed by super or weapons?

[pastel zealot]

weapons

[surreal pond]

I completed Malfeasance Exotic Quest and I didnt get it, why?

[rigid hedge]

anyone have reccomendations on how to level solo? Im fine with solo ops and stuff that has matchmaking, but really dont want to use FTF or anything, just more laid back stuff.

Are all completion rewards powerfull now?

[dark mango]

js run whatever has bonus engrams

[static basin]

zoki8759 has been banned!

[sudden shadow]

How do I fix this?

[drifting plinth]

put on all new gear

[rancid fern]

Avant-garde requires new gear. Your gear needs the blue tag on it.

[drifting plinth]

and weapons

[sudden shadow]

What kinda lame requirement is that

[rancid fern]

Artificial challenge by handicap

[sudden shadow]

I’ll just stick to quickplays atp

Thanks for helping me out though guys

[drifting plinth]

do not do quickplay

just customize and dont put on avant garde

[sudden shadow]

Alright

There goes my build I suppose

[steel sundial]

you can run whatever you want as long as you don’t have touché or avant garde on

[waxen ibex]

I'm gonna miss haliaetus honestly this might have passed up auto reload rift mountaintop for my favorite broken ass weapon

[rancid fern]

#✨destiny-discussion

[waxen ibex]

Ur normal

[woeful frigate]

Is my vault the only one not working. It doesn’t let me put anything inside of it. I have to use the app

[rancid fern]

Known bug.

[woeful frigate]

Ah crap. Thanks man

[grave idol]

im trying to get to rank 5 so i can get the stuff from the event but i cant rank it wont let me complete the steps where i do an activity with threat modifiers like ive been doing a bunch for weeks and yet it still says its not done

[rancid fern]

Can you post a pic?

[waxen ibex]

not a bug, use the vault mode toggle

you do not have to go to the tower to vault shit anymore

[woeful frigate]

Yeah I know but even the toggle is broken 😞

[waxen ibex]

press... r3 i think? in your inventory anywhere to toggle vault mode

that would be a new thing then

[woeful frigate]

Thanks tho

[brittle wing]

It's a console bug

[grave idol]

it wont let me complete this

[waxen ibex]

they disabled automatically enabling vault mode when you go from vault -> inventory but afaik the toggle has worked perfectly fine for all platforms

so i guess the toggle broke on console with call to arms patch?

[brittle wing]

It's from a couple patches ago they talked about it in one of the twids

[tidal merlin]

Boomslang vs Darci?

[brittle wing]

For what

They're both aggressively mid weapons

[tidal merlin]

Hmmmmmm portal?

[brittle wing]

This does not narrow it down

[waxen ibex]

ok you are misremembering things

vault mode automatically enabling when opening the inventory from vault is what broke and then they decided they were leaving it because most people actually preferred it

[rancid fern]

So for example if you apply void threat (player takes more damage from this element) it won’t complete that step?

[waxen ibex]

the toggle is a new thing added in EoF and to my knowledge has not been broken

[grave idol]

yea

[waxen ibex]

people were saying they cant vault things because they didnt even know the toggle was a thing

[brittle wing]

It has been broken for weeks. I have irls who play on Xbox and they have this issue with the toggle

[tidal merlin]

Boss killing.
Tested the DPS, rapid fire precision hits from darci go to 6k but doing the same with boomslang... 2.4k.
Nevermind. I blame the charge time.

[brittle wing]

Darci is technically a much better weapon but it's still not great for solo stuff

Use it if you wanna it'll do fine

[tidal merlin]

I beat salt mines with 6 mins to spare because darci what you talkin about

[rancid fern]

Have you attempted a conquest yet? I believe those also have threats, might work or it might not.

[high lily]

You can clear faster without, and darcis whole gimmick is buffing teammates snipers

[grave idol]

im not high enough yet ive only really done raids since edge of fate

[tidal merlin]

I thought darci's gimmick was buffing precision damage?

[rancid fern]

What’s your power?

[waxen ibex]

it buffs your teammates legendary snipers

it's sniper gjally

[grave idol]

354

[rancid fern]

Thats high enough for quite a few of them, see if any have a threat modifier.

Portal>seasonal hub>play now.

[tidal merlin]

Yes the catalyst does team boost but that 6k DPS was the whole reason I fixate on "Target Acquired" instead of actively getting stacks of "Networked Targeting"

[grave idol]

okii thx ill try that

[waxen ibex]

raids dont require power

all the older raids have power disabled now and even epic tdp is like, 300

[high lily]

dont know where youre getting 6k dps from

highest i got was 654

actually 1k, with a single mag

[drifting plinth]

we're discussing the build in #1438687964250243265

so let's come over there

[grave idol]

not that conquest

[grave idol]

tried it but still didnt complete it

[rancid fern]

That sucks, that was my only idea.

[shadow echo]

I need help with my build in terms of being able to kill Overload champions more effectively any tips?

I'm using the popular void granade build since I'm still early game to my knowledge

[rancid fern]

Void isn’t great at dealing with overloads, the only thing it has is suppressor nades and those suck.

Volt shot and jolting feedback weapons are superior at overload stuns.

[shadow echo]

What is that and what section do I find those in my build

[pearl plinth]

jolt is an arc verb

[shadow echo]

What is a verb?

[pearl plinth]

a status effect, essentially

[shadow echo]

Where do I find it so I can equip it

[pearl plinth]

I guess the option would be a boomslang with jolting feedback but that's just not a very good gun

[rancid fern]

If you wanna stay with void synergy then you could use a boomslang with jolting feedback.
If you’re willing to lose graviton lance, wavesplitter & le monarque can stun overloads.

[shadow echo]

Okay thank you I have a Boomslang-4FR and I will try out the other two thank you

[pearl plinth]

just make sure it actually has jolting feedback

[shadow echo]

That's a perk?

[pearl plinth]

yeah

[shadow echo]

Okay thank you

[surreal pond]

How do I kill this thing

it takes no damage

says protected

and it has no orbs

[rancid fern]

I believe you have to kill all the drones, if that doesn’t work I heard you can super them.

[surreal pond]

it does nto have any drones

[brave canyon]

Are those class kickstarts ?

[grizzled stratus]

I’m over lvl 100 on season pass, can I not get third iteration catalyst? What gives

[surreal pond]

it does nto have any drones around him

theres is nothing left in the room

I can continue

no matter what you do he dont take any dmg

[waxen ibex]

bugged

[high lily]

bug, run it back

[waxen ibex]

ash and iron wasnt technically a new "season"

so third iteration is what it thinks is the current pass exotic

[shadow echo]

What is a class Kickstarts?

[brave canyon]

The mod on your bond

[rancid fern]

Those are class fonts

[shadow echo]

Idk what a kickstart is so I wouldn't know how to answer your question. Is that a type of gear piece, ornament, color?

[brave canyon]

Ahh okay

[brave canyon]

It’s the class fonts

Take those off

You don’t need class on void warlock

[shadow echo]

Does it hurt my build negatively or are you nitpicking?

[rancid fern]

Nitpicking but it’s true.

[brave canyon]

You’re missing out on other mods you could use because it’s completely unnecessary

[shadow echo]

it's the only tier 5 gear with 40 granade for my bond

[brave canyon]

You can use the bond still just switch mods

If you’re going to use the surges and not store armor charge on that build I’d throw on a time dilation or two

Looks like you already have special finisher which is good

[shadow echo]

One sec I'm getting on to visualize it you confusing me with these words 😂

[rancid fern]

That’s restorative finisher.

[brave canyon]

I’m talking about the mods you are using the picture you sent shows them all

[brave canyon]

Oh

Well that mod needs to go too

But to solve your overload problem you’re pretty much gonna have to use an overload weapon.

[shadow echo]

What do I change it to?

[brave canyon]

I’d use special finisher powerful attraction and a time dilation if you’re able too

[brave canyon]

Take that mod off your helmet (not the ammo ones) and use a siphon as well

[shadow echo]

I never do finishers tho I've done 1 in all my 60 hours of playing

[brave canyon]

Okay well now you can start doing them because you’ll get free special ammo at the cost of one armor charge

And then you’ll be able to take the reserve mods off your chest

And put the appropriate resist mods on

[hollow oak]

does weapon stat not effect special ammo

[steel sundial]

no

theres no heavy ammo finisher

[hollow oak]

so much for "bricks have a chance to contain more ammo"

didnt say it meant only heavy

[steel sundial]

oh wait a minute you mean the natty brick

[hollow oak]

natty?

[steel sundial]

i think that does work with special ammo

[hollow oak]

wonder why it shows only a heavy ammo brick

[rancid fern]

There’s aeons so we have one option that we don’t talk about.

[steel sundial]

whos running aeons in the big 25 almost 26

[hollow oak]

well it says "large ammo" not heavy... does large mean both?

[marsh whale]

are raid checkpoints per character ?

[rancid fern]

It’s referring to the ammo bricks, they’ll contain more ammo.

[cerulean sail]

Yes

[hollow oak]

ive never heard the term "large" for a brick

[marsh whale]

sad

[shadow echo]

Which ones?

[steel sundial]

large as in, more ammo than normal

[rancid fern]

Well they might look different, I’m unsure.

[steel sundial]

they don’r

[brave canyon]

It would depend on what you’re playing.

[steel sundial]

they just give more ammo than normal bricks do

[hollow oak]

69% chance. heh

[steel sundial]

like pre-eof levels

[steel sundial]

you can transfer them if you have a friend

[brave canyon]

Normally you’d wanna run a concussive dampener (sniper resist for certain things) and then the 2 elements you’re going against

[shadow echo]

Is there a list of what type of element DMG each enemy shoots?

[brave canyon]

I’m sure you could find one

I just remember it mentally

[steel sundial]

@vale meadow your time has come

[cerulean sail]

Vex do largely solar and void, cabal do largely solar and arc i think, fallen do largely arc with some solar

[shadow echo]

What are the % stacks for each resistance mod?

[brave canyon]

Look on one of the API websites

I don’t know off the top of my head

[oblique basalt]

Was sbmm killed or is it still around in pvp?

[shadow echo]

Thank you that the same for sniper range and AOE as well then?

Appreciate the help y'all

[rancid fern]

Yes, all resists have the same values.

[rancid fern]

There’s really no visual difference for a large ammo brick?

[steel sundial]

no

[cerulean sail]

They should make them comically large, like table sized

[steel sundial]

yum big brick

[cerulean sail]

Big brick for dinner

They run to you and follow you

[steel sundial]

nah thats gonna be the animation that they do with the upcoming marksmans dodge changes

they just scuttle toward you

[cerulean sail]

Hang on, the what now?

[steel sundial]

dodging now also vacuums up all nearby bricks

[cerulean sail]

Oh

[zinc basin]

what happens to tier 6 items after an update that i'd assume fixes this bug?

they keep this holofoil tho?

[hollow oak]

so is whisper of fissures just bad or? ive heard it doesnt scale

#💻tech-support ?

[little cloak]

Oh yeah that one is better thanks

[distant oxide]

what are "protected enemies, we got this psion that is immune and idk how to destroy em

[rancid fern]

There’s supposed to be drones to break the shields, supers also go through it.

[distant oxide]

theres no drone

its different, says protected with a shield symbol next to the name of the mob

[pearl plinth]

yeah sometimes there's a little bit of shield left over but it's just a visual bug

[waxen ibex]

They will probably just make all tier 6 items tier 5 lol

[frozen siren]

I'm doing the heliostat mission

Why is the quicksilver psion not moving after I have radiolarial saturation?

[pearl plinth]

they're on strike

[hollow oak]

were they bugged for like a month? I always saw the drones doing nothing in rooms lol

[pearl plinth]

no that's different drones

[hollow oak]

this event is account based not character right?

[steel sundial]

yes

[vagrant venture]

whats the best way to farm exotics as a fireteam

[waxen ibex]

Leave the fireteam and do solo lost sectors
