[brave canyon]

Perfect so all you’ll have to do is watch that video and you’ll see the path then just farm away

[hollow oak]

if using nighthawk with the roaming golden gun, does it give an ignition and refund the shot, or does nighthawk just do the normal 1 shot only

[turbid talon]

Deadshot can't hit weakspots so you'd be getting negative benefit from Nighthawk.

I suppose it might still refund the shot if you cause an Ignition, but I wouldn't say it's worth it.

[junior frost]

What set bonuses r generally best for pvp?

[signal knoll]

Uh is the altar of reflection catalyst mission bugged

the witch’s eye won’t open

[hollow oak]

anyone know if theres a way on d2 foundry to filter out weapons that arent "featured"

<@&1019968312370806855>

nuked

[turbid sorrel]

bruh

[hollow oak]

someone beat ya to it crisps?

[tropic rover]

Hmm?

Ah

[hollow oak]

it was one of those Elon scam things

[tropic rover]

🐟

[tulip oar]

foundry's missing quite a bit of filtering tools. I was thinking you could do season>=27 but that's not even possible.

[hollow oak]

yeah everythnig new is listed as Null

and you cant search for Null

im just doing it the old fashioned way. looking in the armory to see what has a blue icon

I hate how many weapons are just "old" and cant be used as much

[brave canyon]

The only thing you can’t use them in is conquests

And if you run the modifier

[hollow oak]

exactly

I cant even bring my apex into conquest

[brave canyon]

Why would you use that in a conquest

Apex predator ?

[hollow oak]

as my heavy?

[brave canyon]

Ya

Why

It’s not good anymore

[hollow oak]

cuz its my best rocket?

[brave canyon]

Hezen is the better rocket

But rockets suck

[hollow oak]

Im not doing a raid

[brave canyon]

All you need for a conquest is an eager edge sword

[hollow oak]

didnt they patch a bunch of those chest skips.

[brave canyon]

Just for general movement

You can run PB and a the rocket pulse and be fine

[hollow oak]

PB?

[brave canyon]

Praxic Blade

[hollow oak]

why is a praxic needed for chest skips

[frozen siren]

I've activated the Catalyst for Service of Luzaku, how do I get the other catalysts for weapons like Third Iteration or Red Death Reformed?

[brave canyon]

I’m talking about for conquests

Not chest skips

Idek what those are

[hollow oak]

im taking a Praxic break.

[tulip oar]

You should have them now too if you reached the appropriate rank on the pass

[frozen siren]

I'm rank 92 on the Season Pass

[brave canyon]

Would they be in the seasons past monument ?

[tulip oar]

Ah yeah looks like they're there now

Gross

[frozen siren]

Which means I can't get them, as I need silver to get the archived pass

[brave canyon]

Go spend those chronologs

Well yes you would have to purchase the season they’re affiliated with

[frozen siren]

Unless you can purchase them without the archive pass...?

[brave canyon]

No you’d need to purchase whatever they’re affiliated with

I guess it would be “episode”

[west meadow]

Anyone know where the hobo is ?

[frozen siren]

F in the chat, I am unable to get the Catalysts without spending silver

[hollow oak]

that.... makes no sense

the catalyst is part of the free pass isnt it?

[frozen siren]

Well, I'm hovering over it and it says "Requires Archived Pass"

[brave canyon]

It’s not uncommon to have to pay for the content it’s not free to make

[brave canyon]

I don’t think so

Unless it is ?

[hollow oak]

"its not uncommon to pay for the thing that everyone got for free"

[brave canyon]

I thought it was on the paid track

[hollow oak]

they have the gun. they shouldnt need to BUY the catalyst

[frozen siren]

I just found it a little weird that it changed, because apparently you used to be able to get the other seasonal catalysts by unlocking the catalyst of the current season

[brave canyon]

But if it’s on the free track this is very peculiar

[tulip oar]

It is normally yes. And just to be clear @frozen siren you've checked the weapons in question to make sure you didn't get the catalyst automatically when you reached 92?

[hollow oak]

here ill double check im in game

[frozen siren]

Yup, no Catalysts present @tulip oar @hollow oak

I have Third Iteration in my inventory, but no catalyst options

[hollow oak]

catalysts are rank 90 of the free pass

making someone pay for something from the free part of the season is bullshit

especially if they have the freaking weapon

ima be real. catalysts need to be for tuning up old weapons. new weapons should just have the perk off the bat instead of adding more problems like this

but hey. this is bungie so what ya gonna do

[west meadow]

is there any point finishing renegades on all characters ?

[hollow oak]

the exotic armor for each class

and story progression so you dont have to play ketchup later on

it also unlocks quests and whatnot

[cerulean sail]

if you want to do lawless frontier activities on all of them

[frozen siren]

I have the Service of Luzaku Catalyst

[hollow oak]

where was it

wait you already had that that wasnt the problem

[frozen siren]

It's the past catalysts for weapons like third iteration and red death reformed that i don't have

[twin cave]

how do we know which renegades shiny guerentee weapon we get for the week through the weekly quest thing?

[hollow oak]

the problem is the old ones are asking you for MONEY

[west meadow]

i bought the hunter exotic just now from the outpost

[twin cave]

also what do the biggest spider order give?

[hollow oak]

you can just buy it?

[west meadow]

yeh

[frozen siren]

When I've been told you could just retroactively earn the other cataylsts by reaching rank 90 on the season pass

[west meadow]

cause i was finishing it for that

[tulip oar]

From the weekend vendor

[west meadow]

then went to the outpost and saw it

[hollow oak]

for scrap?

[tulip oar]

Credits

[west meadow]

its to the right of auroa or whatever she is called

[hollow oak]

ah right. argentina I remember her

very memorable character amanda is

didnt feel random at all

[west meadow]

Aunor *

[tulip oar]

She was a character from the Drifter/Vanguard stuff back in Season of the Drifter

and has shown up in a few other lore tabs over the years

[hollow oak]

star wars clothing and all?

[tulip oar]

This was the first time we saw her/heard her

[west meadow]

so there is no point finishing it other than story ?

[hollow oak]

and this sudden praxic existance

[turbid talon]

Praxic has existed since D1 vanilla in lore.

[hollow oak]

lightsabers and all?

[turbid talon]

No.

[hollow oak]

D1 vanilla also didnt have Taken, which is something Praxic is very involved with

[west meadow]

How would you guys feel about another new sub class ?

[cerulean sail]

the praxic order are old

[hollow oak]

they already announced the Poop subclass

[west meadow]

i think it would be sick and fresh if they added a entirely new character

[west meadow]

Thats true

[hollow oak]

thats never gonna happen lol

[west meadow]

better be strong 🙄

[hollow oak]

Bungie cant put effort into a new subclass let alone a new Class with all past subclasses

[west meadow]

unfortunately not

[hollow oak]

just look at the mess that is Prismatic

a bunch of old stuff shoved together

but hey. at least we got.... a single new grenade for each class

[west meadow]

wayyy .....

[hollow oak]

id rather they took the grenades from the dreadnaught and added them to our existing classes

[turbid talon]

With all due respect, Prismatic is quite popular, and people wanted something akin to it for years.

[hollow oak]

they could have given us new abilities and perks that mix elements. instead of just recycling the old ones

[west meadow]

i quite like prismatic

[fathom marten]

It's from Monument to Seasons Past

[cerulean sail]

they gave us new supers and aspects

[west meadow]

just a shame most of it is all used content recycled

[hollow oak]

new melee, new grenades, we didnt even get a prismatic super

and for some reason

we got 3 new light supers, instead of darkness which all still have ONE

[cerulean sail]

yeah the traveler wasn't gonna gift us darkness supers

[turbid talon]

That would be because Final Shape was a big nostalgia trip. They wanted to focus on revisiting history.

[fathom marten]

It is also a super for one of the original two subclasses in D1

[hollow oak]

we pulled strand out of our ass, im sure theres a super in there somewhere

[cerulean sail]

we got strand from proximity to the Veil

[hollow oak]

then the veil needs to pay up

whatever the hell it even is

[west meadow]

is strand worth farming for ?

[hollow oak]

did we EVER get told what it actually is

[hollow oak]

yes

all subclasses are good right now. if your not a hunter

[turbid talon]

Try doing the post-campaign chats with Osiris and Nimbus in Veil Containment.

[west meadow]

im not a hunter main just building my hunter

[hollow oak]

is that a blank screen with a wall of text? or staring at a holoprojector?

[turbid talon]

It's audio.

[hollow oak]

figures

also im not listening to nimbus ever again. I want rohan back

[turbid talon]

Good luck with that.

[cerulean sail]

https://tenor.com/view/that-one-friend-who-doesnt-like-anything-gif-16745828165917532030

[hollow oak]

lets turn nimbus into a catalyst for Rohans gun

im sure theres some force magic now that can do it

[fathom marten]

I feel like this isn't really a question anymore

[hollow oak]

this chat is usually questions, followed by a link, or being told to google something

wait sorry

Pins

[turbid talon]

Yes, this chat is usually questions followed by access or direction to information.

[hollow oak]

rather than questions followed by answers

[turbid talon]

That's the same thing.

[hollow oak]

if someone wanted a spreadsheet or a website they would go to a resources listing

people want HUMAN answers sometimes

[turbid talon]

And they often get them.

[cerulean sail]

and they get them

[fathom marten]

Okay, this guy's just typing to type. Does the Praxic Blade actually heal? I saw Jongo say something about it earlier

[hollow oak]

2 of its perks can

the throw perk, and the balanced perk

one heals you based on how many enemies the throw bounces from, the other triggers from rapid kills

it seems to be a wordless heal, no subclass synergy

[fathom marten]

What's in-chat text line for the emote Cooperate Alchemy when both facing no one and facing someone?

[hollow oak]

this game has manual emote texting?

[cerulean sail]

text shows up in the kill feed when you emote, it's different if you're facing someone

[wraith pumice]

i assume they mean the text line on the left side of the screen when you emote

[hollow oak]

oh that

[turbid talon]

That's a bit too specific for me, I'm afraid. I don't much use emotes.

[hollow oak]

I dont think I know anyone who even reads those

[wraith pumice]

but yeah beats me geez

[fathom marten]

😎

[hollow oak]

what is the powerhouse of the cell

[cerulean sail]

looks like this could use a random link to a spreadsheet...

[fathom marten]

I am asking because it's one I don't have lol

[hollow oak]

if that exists im gonna be shocked LOL

[cerulean sail]

yea i don't think anyone cared to make one ngl

[wraith pumice]

john spreadsheet himself documented it

[hollow oak]

does the compendium even have emote lines lol

maybe light gg lol

[turbid talon]

Not that I'm aware of. They're rather more focused on practical information.

[hollow oak]

it has HALF the info

LOL so many unknown

[turbid talon]

I don't believe light.gg does either, since that's 99% just API scrapings, and 1% info copied directly from the Compendium.

[hollow oak]

is flavor text not in the API

[cerulean sail]

flavor text would be

[turbid talon]

Flavour text is, but not in game text popups. Even if it were, nobody documents it.

[hollow oak]

what flavor is the text tho.

[cerulean sail]

purple

[fathom marten]

I have been

[turbid talon]

Insomuch as nobody scraping it from the API documents it

I did gather your attempt from the screenshot above yeah

[fathom marten]

It doesn't even exist in the API afaik

The in-game stuff

[turbid talon]

Yeah I'm not surprised

Otherwise we'd have seen text lines floating around in the lore community more often

[hollow oak]

Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.

how good is star eaters (the boots) with deadshot golden gun since its changes

if anyones tested

[fathom marten]

Yeah, the only non-flavor text lore thing I can think of is that the Guardian can also do Petra's knife trick from Forsaken but that would've been known without the ingame text line

[fathom marten]

Back of the envelope math says 3123.95 per shot with max Feast of Light and max Super stat

[hollow oak]

does acrobat dodge not trigger on your mark.

[fathom marten]

It should

[hollow oak]

im not getting stacks

scratch that

im getting A SINGLE stack

[fathom marten]

Correct

[hollow oak]

when did it stop giving all 10

[fathom marten]

You get one (1) from class ability

idk

[hollow oak]

when was that changed?! thats DUMB

might as well not give any at that point

they buffed it so of course that had to giga nerf it

[cerulean sail]

hunter was ok during day 1 SE so now we can't have them do anything, sorry

[hollow oak]

and people wonder why this is my least played class

[cerulean sail]

play the loved class (warlock) or the other one

[hollow oak]

id say titans are eating good too. as a titan main

[turbid sorrel]

titans have been eating good for 4 + years

[hollow oak]

warlocks feel nerfed, titans feel nerfed, and everyone says hunters are nerfed

[cerulean sail]

crazy because they were crying when TFS came out

[hollow oak]

last I remember was them about to ruin Strongholds

[turbid sorrel]

they shouldve

[hollow oak]

nah

[turbid sorrel]

the misinfo surrounding it is so badf or the game

FTF is flooded with them

[hollow oak]

define misinfo

[turbid sorrel]

its horrible

[cerulean sail]

remember when Lament was ok with renewal grasps for a bit and they nuked lament? ahah

[hollow oak]

FTF?

[turbid sorrel]

fireteam finder

[turbid sorrel]

being a good build

its not even a build

[hollow oak]

thats their fault that they dont know how to use it

[turbid sorrel]

its worthless

[cerulean sail]

stronghold praxic blade is a larp build

[hollow oak]

lemme guess, they stand around and do nothing but block?

[turbid sorrel]

id rather have a titan on void which is shit

[hollow oak]

void titans just got a massive buff.

[turbid sorrel]

massive

[hollow oak]

have you seen what ursa is doing

[turbid sorrel]

im aware

but cuirass/pks is still the best

for dps

[hollow oak]

ooo yay the meta. anyway.

maybe dont go on fireteam finder? since thats playing with RANDOMS

or, OR

[turbid sorrel]

ive never seen a community more than destiny who acts like meta is a bad thing

[hollow oak]

"manual accept" for your own lobbies

[hollow oak]

legit every game. being a meta slave is fucking BORING

[turbid sorrel]

respectfuly people want to get shit done

if youre joining a GM

run the good shit

[hollow oak]

Meta is for the fuckin day 1 and nothing else

[turbid sorrel]

?

bad mentality

[hollow oak]

I legit did the GM with my strongholds

[turbid sorrel]

i never said it cant be done

its just not good

[hollow oak]

cuz I dont just stand in one spot and let enemies get reflected to death

and now with praxic its better than its ever been

[novel zephyr]

People in fireteam finder are either the top 1% or the dumbest mfs ever

[cerulean sail]

NOOOO I DON'T WANT TO BE EFFECTIVE I WANT MY STAR WARS DEFLECT LARP

[hollow oak]

not to mention the new dungeon armor is fucking AMAZING

[hollow oak]

welcome to randoms

[hollow oak]

been using it since before renegades but go off I guess

[cerulean sail]

VADER ORNAMENTS, RED BLADE AND STRONGHOLD LAAARRRRRPPPPP

[hollow oak]

rude. im a blue

[turbid sorrel]

even worse

[hollow oak]

:C

dont insult my default color

[novel zephyr]

Funnily enough I got Iconoclast and ETERNAL entirely through LFG

[hollow oak]

my warlock got green :>

THANKS FOR DELETING MY MESSAGE YA DUMB SERVER

[frozen siren]

Duality of LFG

[hollow oak]

what kinda automod cries over how many 0's are in a row

[fathom marten]

sepiks

[novel zephyr]

Say that again…

[frozen siren]

Which part

[hollow oak]

LFG looking for Duality

[novel zephyr]

Duality

[hollow oak]

the gun or the mode

[novel zephyr]

The dungeon

[hollow oak]

feels so nice being able to skip Blue without losing context

peace and quiet

anywho, due to bungie hating hunters. im gonna play on my warlock. farewell

[twin cave]

have the two master conquests been fixed yet?

[marsh whale]

what hours does the players playing is alot, and what timezone is it

[marsh whale]

wdym, isnt it just dereealize that is super hard

[twin cave]

no it was bugged for a while to where we couldnt proceed through the conquest

wondering if they adressed the bugs for both the master conquests

[sudden egret]

It depends on your region and it’s typically at night

[sudden egret]

People have cleared both conquests

[twin cave]

cool so guessing they fixed it

[twin cave]

we arent able to guild conquerer this season correct? only next season

[sudden egret]

The rest of the conquests will be released at the mid season update

[marsh whale]

so i matchmake with peopel in my region ? it's not worldwide ?

[sudden egret]

Yes

But regions that are close to each other can match

[marsh whale]

then why do i have friends i met ingame from america

[twin cave]

ah so this season..?

[sudden egret]

If they don’t find anyone in your region it will widen the search

[sudden egret]

Yes

[twin cave]

cool cool thnx

[marsh whale]

how does bungie expect me to play trials if finding competetive matches for placement takes like so long

[sudden egret]

Comp is more active when trials isn’t

[high lily]

Really depends on region though

[sudden egret]

True, some regions comp are dead no matter time

[marsh whale]

im in africa am i cooked

what if i join someone in america, and he is the leader does that make it better

[sharp flicker]

notrly

ping is pretty irrelevant in pve

[sudden egret]

They want to play comp

[sharp flicker]

ping is even an advantage in pvp then

even better

[sudden egret]

They don’t care about winning, they just want a match for the quest

[sharp flicker]

either way they are not cooked

[sudden egret]

They are if they can’t get a match

[marsh whale]

it workinggg it's woorkingg !!!!!!

[livid needle]

Anyone else feel like bows are just not doing enough damage to keep up with the alternatives?

[sudden egret]

Bows are meant for peak shooting which isn’t really needed right now

[real socket]

how do i get mida mini tool as of now

[pearl plinth]

pretty sure your only choice for the newest one is hoping it drops from Hawthorne

[glad crag]

Bows need to feel like scouts but with penetration, and scouts need to be like portable.50 cal

And both Wish Keeper and Verglas need to have HoN level of uptime

[livid needle]

Yea, but dmg wise they fall behind BAD

[sudden egret]

Do they not one shot ads? (I haven’t shot a legendary bow in a while)

[shadow venture]

they do

[sudden egret]

They aren’t for majors so I’m not sure what you expect

[pearl stump]

Does meditating have a cooldown?

[sudden egret]

No, fast travel to the annex and try again

[pearl stump]

Alr ty

[tight trellis]

Am I the only one that asks ChatGPT how to navigate which campaign mission I need to do next since this damn game doesn’t tell you?

[drifting plinth]

Just Google it

It gives you a video

[tight trellis]

I’m to good for Google

[drifting plinth]

Chatgpt sucks for very nearly anything related to this game

[tight trellis]

For me it works very well. It breaks down step by step for me

[drifting plinth]

I've tested it

Do you have the paid version?

[tight trellis]

No

But I’ve learned how to formulate my questions in such ways it gives me better responses

[drifting plinth]

Then again, the main issue with chatgpt for this game is that when I ask it to make a build to test its capabilities, it gives me outdated info, or just makes stuff up

Gemini is slightly better

Mostly just outdated

When I need help with a build I ask here or in the respective playbook

[tight trellis]

Oh that makes sense. You’re asking more in depth theoretical questions. Yea I just ask it shit like “where’s the quest terminal?”

[drifting plinth]

I ask more in depth stuff cause I play the game eat too much

Way not eat

Hate autocorrect

And I only ask chatgpt for the fun of seeing what BS it spits out

[fathom marten]

9 out of 10 people here will give you a better answer over garbagept

[drifting plinth]

Tbh yeah

And it'll be fast

Cause a lot of us can remember this stuff off the top of our heads

[turbid talon]

Very highly recommend against that. The game changes often enough that it's consistently unreliable and people who do this often end up here trying to do something that either flat out never existed, or hasn't been the case for years.

It's how things like "Dawn Chorus makes players deal more Scorch" become a big thing, since it'll scrape info from Reddit or whatever, and continue to spread the misinformation.

[craggy grail]

is smoothbore bad for aggressive frames in pvp

[amber pivot]

Just getting back into destiny again. How far back do I have to look up builds (From Edge of fate era). Or just do the Renegades builds?

[deft chasm]

Is it possible to get mint retrograde still? If so where do I farm it and what's the roll to get

[waxen ibex]

eof -> renegades was purely buffs to stuff for the most part

so like everything from ash and iron onwards at least is valid still

[amber pivot]

Okay so like maybe 4-5 months ago till now then

[craggy grail]

best 140 rpm hcs in pvp right now?

[fathom marten]

Your only option is clan pinnacle engrams from Hawthorne

[drifting plinth]

corundum hammer is good

ace is good

thorn

[deft chasm]

Thats so ass

I wanna make the chunk build on warlock to ez solo flawless the equilibrium dungeon

[fathom marten]

It should have a better method of obtaining come March 6

[boreal patio]

does praxic blade work with riposte to stun unstop?

[fathom marten]

Yes

[boreal patio]

[deft chasm]

That's good

[hardy needle]

If you didn't play old seasons of trials is it impossible to get weapons like Burden of Guilt or Aishas Embrace? ( i haven't played any previous seasons and only get Martlet,Immortal,Astral and the GL dropping)

[fathom marten]

Probably. They rotate what is able to drop from Trials every... season? expansion? at some point they change it

They just brought back Aisha's Embrace last expansion

Same with Burden of Guilt

[hardy needle]

Yeah was just asking as I saw a streamer get an Aishas embrace as a after game drop and was wondering if that's only possible if you played that season, or there is another way?

[fathom marten]

What timeframe is that clip/stream from?

[hardy needle]

Live stream, so like now

[fathom marten]

Huh

I have zero clue then

[livid needle]

They do unless its higher difficulty content

And even then the damage a master strike is 365 (this is from hierarchy of needs)

[sudden egret]

Hon, you are suppose to shoot it through its rings

[livid needle]

Yes

It doubles the dmg to 660

[sudden egret]

It’s good in higher content

[livid needle]

But there were still other guns out doing it by alot that were also primary and its not even just a few its a good handful of the other exotics

[sudden egret]

Bows are meant for slow play, the game just got a lot faster

Buffing their damage isn’t going to help since their rate of fire is still low

[torpid swallow]

yo could anyone help me with this one boss in renegades?

[sudden egret]

;lfg

[livid needle]

Yea thats the biggest issue

[torpid swallow]

nobody there :/

[livid needle]

My thought is they could just deal special ammo damage since they fire so slow anyway

[sudden egret]

Nobody here either

[livid needle]

Which also slightly improves dmg against majors

[hardy needle]

Do stasis/stand weapons deal less dmg than kinetic ones even in pvp?

[regal sleet]

How do I do bossing as a melee titan with synthoceps or caress?

Can't finish the final bit of the renegades intro on legendary

[sudden egret]

No, they are the same now

and it was only in pve in the past

[hardy needle]

That's just in pvp right? Because in Shooting range my Hawthornes (stasis) is hitting for less than Riiswalker (kinetic) when testing (at no fall off)

[sudden egret]

that's probably from new gear damage bonus

[hardy needle]

Nevermind ty I was being dumb and forgot power level matters in shooting range Hawthornes was 400 power

[sudden egret]

yep, that would change the numbers too

I always set it to normal

[shadow magnet]

i finished it the first time using howl of the storm & synthoceps

[regal sleet]

I'm using prismatic consecration

[shadow magnet]

consecration kind of ass nowadays i’m afraid

it’s a bit mid if i say so myself

[regal sleet]

Am I supposed to punch the at ats though?

I sit back with lfr and it takes a bit

[shadow magnet]

you’re supposed to shoot them in the eyes but melee works

howl of the storm is just a better consecration build atp and works wonderfully against any vehicle

[regal sleet]

Is there a build YouTube video?

[shadow magnet]

yeah just look up howl of the storm stasis titan build

it’s probably gonna be from back in ash and iron but the only difference is that the super can’t use the howl of the storm as much

general play works the same

[regal sleet]

What about bossing though? Is there any trouble? Also any guns that are needed

[deep fiber]

def not better

[shadow magnet]

consecration lowk mid in the big 26

[loud lotus]

Can someone tell me how a warlock with frostpulse aspect freezed me 3 seconds after they used their rift? they also didn't use any of their abilities.

[tidal merlin]

I thought there was some kind of prerequisite but this is still too odd.
I played Encore from the Legends rotation. Got nothing.
I solved all the puzzles. Every chest was empty.
Completed the mission. Final chest was empty too.
What the hell?

Restarted destiny. Still not getting loot.
Whats the deal with this mission?

[pulsar fox]

You need to do it from the portal pinnacle ops encore

[tidal merlin]

Will I get choir of one from the portal version?

[pulsar fox]

Yeah should do, needs an A grade tho I think?

[tidal merlin]

Thats a standard, no worries. Why is the legends version broken?

[pulsar fox]

bungie things

[tidal merlin]

(one week without fumbling the ball please 🙏)

[molten spoke]

Mindspun invocation (weaver trance) do that count at grenade kills??

[strange loom]

Is the Unfall rocket sidearm still obtainable?

[turbid sorrel]

no

thankfully

but it should be once shadow n order drops

[twin peak]

ur positive they didn’t just penumbral blast you?

or maybe cryo?

[loud lotus]

100%

[twin peak]

you wouldn’t happen to have a clip would you?

maybe latency?

[loud lotus]

like i saw the frosy pulse animation happen but they didnt rift

[loud lotus]

no vid which is what im most annoyed about because i dont have a playback thing

[loud lotus]

def not i have rlly good internet

[cerulean sail]

ok but since it's pvp maybe they don't

doesn't matter if you get 8gigs down and up, if they have 999ms ping they have 999ms ping

[loud lotus]

I can guarantee it has nothing to do with network

[orchid tinsel]

do you kill the empowered psions in EQ with feats usually?

[trail pendant]

Best aspects for verity solar?

[little pewter]

Touch of flame, the final one should probably be heat rises or helion

[loud lotus]

Does using special ammo scout helmet mod while running double primary give you a special ammo meter bar so you can still help your allies?

[brittle wing]

No

[cerulean sail]

no, scout mods work on bricks you make for yourself

[brittle wing]

If you want to help your allies don't run double primary

[loud lotus]

That wasn’t my question. I was asking how the mod works.

[little pewter]

Their answer was an addition since your question was answered

[brittle wing]

It was general advice. Double primary is almost never worth considering in any part of the game

[loud lotus]

General advice is fine, but I wasn't asking about loadouts.

[trail pendant]

Whats the nullify pve god roll?

[solemn zodiac]

;roll

Have a question regarding a weapon/armor roll?
👉 Please use #💎shard-it-keep-it 👈

• Additional resources: Bozo-68's Godroll Spreadsheet, r\sharditkeepit
• You can view a weapon's perk pool and information about perks & their effects on a weapon on d2foundry, and view perk details on the Data Compendium
• PvE Godroll Advice: Usually, a reload perk combined with a damage or synergy perk. Primaries, intended for add clear, benefit from perks with on-kill effects/synergies, while most Specials and Heavies benefit from strong damage perks and reload perks that don't require kills.
• PvP Godroll Advice: PvP god rolls will mostly depend player input or feel (MnK, Controller). Usually, barrels will improve recoil direction, range, handling and stability. Mags will more often than not increase range or handling. The 3rd column generally consists of a stat bump perk, while the 4th column will increase damage and damage falloff.

[short pilot]

does xurr have anything worth getting?

[high lily]

no

[hearty hound]

do I have to complete the renegades mission to advance?

[tulip oar]

Yes, just the free introduction

[hearty hound]

ok

[hearty hound]

I am now stuck here for eternity, I cant reach anything like this lol

[pearl plinth]

warlock jumping is momentum based

activating it earlier in your first jump should send you further upward

[hearty hound]

I am trying I am just too low, and it requires a bit too much forawrd momentum

[high lily]

Orbit then load back in

[echo marsh]

whats your bungie ID, I can jump in and help if you like

unless that mission is stuck solo?

[hearty hound]

would that restart the Mission?

[glad crag]

Then use grapple grenade

[hearty hound]

dont got strand my dude, this is a requirement to get intiate mind you

[cerulean sail]

to your latest checkpoint

[echo marsh]

ill jump in with salvations edge and stasislock

😎

[high lily]

There are checkpoints, but you also arent far in at all

[glad crag]

Edge of Salvation reference

[echo marsh]

[cerulean sail]

you mean salvation's grip?

[echo marsh]

oh

yea

yea I meant that

😭

[cerulean sail]

salvation's DRIP sheeeesh 🔥 🔥 💯 💅

[echo marsh]

slayyy

[cerulean sail]

yaaassss (young ahamkara's spine)

[glad crag]

I much prefer Eternity’s Edge

[brave canyon]

You need to watch some videos on warlock movement tech

[cerulean sail]

skating is not getting them out of this i fear

[tidal merlin]

Is the unsworn trace rifle from sundered doctrine worth farming?
Ngl target lock and rewind have me drooling

[hearty hound]

yeah, maybe wait on that when I am not dying to a million field troops first

[glad crag]

Just

Grenade them

Grenade them all

[hearty hound]

I just died falling too lmao

[glad crag]

What class were you before this?

[sharp flicker]

rocekt jumping, worldlinning etc

[glad crag]

Or just a simple grapple

[hearty hound]

completely new player

wtf I am doing? I have a sunshot why am I not using it?

[sharp flicker]

assuming a completly new player has done lightfall already

idk

[glad crag]

That was before I found out

[hearty hound]

those stasis grenades are awful, I need to regulate my jumps as to dodge and be far away form the grenade I think

[glad crag]

The walker ones?

[hearty hound]

yeah

[glad crag]

Just jump above it

They’re completely horizontal

[hearty hound]

I am jumping all over the place, to dodge the Machine Guns and the other adds before they kill me. the moment I touch the ground I get hounded

[glad crag]

Where are you standing? Under that platform is a solid spot

[hearty hound]

on the sides I think is where I am most often. would need to stand under the platform then

[glad crag]

And remember that grenades are a warlock’s best friend

[hearty hound]

just for quick reference anything I should change here?

[glad crag]

Assuming you don’t have any exotic armor yet, I’d switch the Icarus Dash to Touch of Flame and the grenade to Fusion

[hearty hound]

I see, I got Getaway Artist but that needs Arc to work.

[little pewter]

i assume this is a movement based setup, given your choice of grenade, aspect, and super?

[glad crag]

Yes that’s useless here. I don’t remember all the fragment icons, but if you use the one that gives you class ability on scorch, it’ll help with staying alive

[little pewter]

its not really used on arc, its used on prismatic

[hearty hound]

I thought this works to spam Gernades and Scorch, I got ember of Singeing which recharges Class ability on Scorch, Ember of Char which adds Gernade stat and causes ignitions to spread scorch, Ember of Ashes which applys more scorch and Ember of Blistering which grants Gernade energy on defeating ignited enemies

[hearty hound]

needs an Arc gernade to work then

[little pewter]

which is on prismatic yes

[little pewter]

it might work on that, but it wont work well

fusion nade, replace icarus dash with touch fo flame, use burst glice, incinerator snap melee, and well or song of flame as a super

[hearty hound]

dont got Song, Well works?

[little pewter]

yes

dawnblade is only really useful for distance if youre not wellskating

[hearty hound]

keep healing rift then? and what Embers do I change? or none at all?

[little pewter]

healing rift or phoenix dive works best

as for embers, dont know at the top of my head

[hearty hound]

ok, thats much better. still died against the boss man

this is tough

[little pewter]

could always LFG

[hearty hound]

can you LFG a campaign?

[glad crag]

Yes actually

[hearty hound]

I might need to do that, its been an hour now and I cant win

mf has a regenrating shield that I need to overload with nades and melees and stuff and I just dont have enough oopmh for that

and game crashed for the 4th time today, welp fuck it. I aint bootin it back up

[cerulean sail]

get a more powerful weapon, one that would do a lot of damage in one shot

[hearty hound]

I am using A nade launcher but I dont have enough ammo for it by the time of the boss, I couls switch to Hothead maybe.

[cerulean sail]

idk how it fares against those new shields but you could try it

could also use a sniper or a shotgun if you can get close enough and survive

then you take it down with rapid fire

[hearty hound]

I dont survive if I get close, even with a Healing Rift

[cerulean sail]

ok so sniper

[hearty hound]

maybe Izanagi's Burden? but I need Sunshot for adds, my other sniper is quite shoddy

[long aurora]

is kicking right before awards bannable?

[cerulean sail]

it's a reportable offense

[little pewter]

ye, seen a few complain about being banned for doing that

[little pewter]

to clarify, you can LFG for anything save for the new light campaign, unsure if theres anything else that can only be done solo?

its a game primarily designed around multiplayer

[hearty hound]

I cant find the option tbh

[little pewter]

i recommend using ordinary LFG, not the ingame LFG

[cerulean sail]

either the previous reuslts screen or through your game history https://www.bungie.net/en/Profile/GameHistory

[little pewter]

that might be better actually

[jaunty kernel]

it is necessary to complete quest story (edge + renegade) on other character?

[hearty hound]

ooh, welp I aint got enough time today anyway so maybe tmrw I can try again? we will see. (why is this required to advance in Rank man, even Fireteam finder ingame is locked behind intiate

[little pewter]

You can try at any time of any day
again, advise against using fireteam finder for this, and instead using ordinary LFG

[jaunty kernel]

Also how did people go to 550 light fast, renegade just released a month ago?

[sudden egret]

power didn't reset

[little pewter]

renegades did not reset power

[jaunty kernel]

Oh

[little pewter]

though its perfectly possible to go from 300 to 550 in a month

[sudden egret]

only if you want to do those post campaign activities on said chars

[jaunty kernel]

didnt play edge of fate release, makes sense

im at 400 light rn

[little pewter]

campaign progress doesnt cross over between characters if thats what you mean.

[jaunty kernel]

Yeah

[hearty hound]

it aint so much time of day, as me being short on time naturally. just had a bit more today so decided to try and finish the quest so I can rank up. got stuck on the boss. any who will use normal LFG for this then

[jaunty kernel]

What's effective way to get more light power rn?

[little pewter]

elaborate on "any who will use normal LFG for this then"

[jaunty kernel]

Cause this new activity system thing, im not used to it yet

[hearty hound]

when I try it again will use the LFG channel so I can finally clear it

[little pewter]

the renegades contract thingies, or activities with one-time bonus drops

[little pewter]

i recommend you first enter the discord to make such possible

[hearty hound]

is it not the #💻pc-lfg channel?

[little pewter]

the LFG channel of this server isnt as efficient

[jaunty kernel]

so like pinnacle ops presage with 3 bonus drops?

[little pewter]

discord, not channel
i also advise against restricting your LFG to only one platform

[little pewter]

this

[little pewter]

ye

[jaunty kernel]

Do you maybe know any pinnacle i can farm easily for tier 5 stuff? like swordmaster

some say kell's fall

or the equilbirium dungeon

[little pewter]

excluding desert perpetual (and i think equilibrium?), tiers is based on your power.

so the best way to farm for tier 5 is to first farm power

[jaunty kernel]

ah i dont have tier 5 pinnacle, thats because of my power?

[little pewter]

"pinnacles"? elaborate

[jaunty kernel]

i mean this, its tier 3. how do i make it to tier 5? make activity harder?

[little pewter]

ah, thats gear from pinnacle activities

harder content and higher power

[jaunty kernel]

Yeah

[jaunty kernel]

Ah aight, so i gotta go get more power, tyty

[brave canyon]

450 is when T5 will start to drop

470 ish is where you’ll see them consistently

[jaunty kernel]

noted, tyty

Should i use 2x Sage Protector and 2x Swordmaster for Wolfsbane build or preferly full Sage Protector/Swordmaster Armor?

[sudden egret]

wolfsbane can't block so....

[jaunty kernel]

ah yeah okay

full sage protector is it then

since 4 piece swordmaster is for blocking

tyty

[sudden egret]

full sage also needs blocking

[jaunty kernel]

oh

2 sage and 2 swordmaster is it then

2 swordmaster to weaken and 2 sage to improve damage? i think

[sudden egret]

2 sage is just nade and class ability

[jaunty kernel]

aight thanks! 👍

[sudden egret]

2 sword master is good, up to you for the other 2

[sharp flicker]

go fero

[sudden egret]

if you don't have sj, yeah

[sharp flicker]

dr is always good dosent matter what u are doing

[jaunty kernel]

sj?

[sudden egret]

smoke jumper, you had to play last season to get it

[jaunty kernel]

oh so its not obtainable anymore lmfao?

i started playing back after renegade release

[jaunty kernel]

in full piece?

[sudden egret]

2 piece

[jaunty kernel]

so its either 2 sm or 2 sage paired with 2 fero?

which one should i take for wolfsbane dps?

[sudden egret]

sm + fero

[jaunty kernel]

whats blade focus again?

[jaunty kernel]

oh right i read sage wrong, yeah aight, sm is it

[sudden egret]

it procs while guarding for a bit with 4 piece

[proud quiver]

what is the best absolute build for titan atm?

[sudden egret]

depends on the content, there's no one build that's best at all content

[proud quiver]

i mean what are the options atm?

the meta

[sudden egret]

there's no one best still. Every subclass but void has meta builds right now

[proud quiver]

danm

[sudden egret]

it's a good thing to have different builds to use

[glad crag]

and even then, Void is usable again thanks to its buffs

[sudden egret]

usable =/= meta

but sure, I woldn't call void bad

[glad crag]

not what I mean but ok

Every f*ing time I speak on this server, theres so many people ready to pounce with their "ackthually"

[brave canyon]

I don’t think I’ve used void titan since like Witch Queen

[glad crag]

Same people who comment "Play all three" or "Play what you want" in reddit posts

[brave canyon]

Is encouraging someone to play all 3 characters a bad thing ?

[glad crag]

i dont use it either but its not bad anymore

[brave canyon]

Ya you won’t catch me off pris anymore

I honestly haven’t been fw titan this season

[sudden egret]

I was just responded in the context of the question. they were asking for the best builds, not what is the state of void titan.

[glad crag]

The DIFFERENCE is saying that and only that. If someone is asking something like "Should I go Hunter or Titan now, Im done with Warlock" the best thing to do is explain the pros and cons of the classes. The playstyles and general exotic options

[cerulean sail]

people finding out what they like on their own... how could this be

[sharp flicker]

no!

[brave canyon]

Just tell them to play whatever their team needs for contest

[sharp flicker]

Look I would agree with you if the question wasent "what is the best absolute build for titan atm?"

[glad crag]

best is subjective because it all amounts to skill. Someone could suggest I play the standard Cyrt Prism Hunter, and if they respond "skill issue" if I were to say Im not doing good with it, then Id have no reason to believe it is a best build. All I did was avoid shutting out void

[glad crag]

exactly

You tell them the objective descriptions of each class

Not the bs "this is best because"

[cerulean sail]

doesn't the game do that in the character creation screen

[sudden egret]

how you use a build is obviously going to effect how well a build does. That doesn't effect what the best builds are.

[glad crag]

Not really? Saying the Warlock uses space magic, only to then have Titan be able to do the same thing

[cerulean sail]

but then how would you describe each class if they all play the same

their class ability?

i don't think infodumping about aspects would help someone pick their class either

[glad crag]

It can and it does. Someone could be really dang good at throwing heavy knife crits effectively, but if everyone tells them that solar sucks, then maybe they wouldnt have found it out

[cerulean sail]

well... solar hunter

[brave canyon]

Ya but you’re not gonna run around on an ultimate conquest or contest raid/dungeon throwing heavy throwing knives

[glad crag]

The jumps, the general exotic types. Creation screen doesnt tell you that Titan is all about punching or that Warlock is all about grenades

[cerulean sail]

what's hunter about aside from avoiding the fight

[brave canyon]

Hunter is now the certified debuff !

[sharp flicker]

are we dead ass

or what

[cerulean sail]

tetherbot, the more things change the more they stay the same

[brave canyon]

I’ll die on the hill that fortunes favor lowkey carried contest EQ

[glad crag]

First off, snipers are real life weapons. Secondly, their "best build" right now is all about getting them into the fight

[cerulean sail]

i might be biased, but all of invis does nothing for you aside from getting out of and staying out of the fight !

[sharp flicker]

ah yes clueless people propagating the "hunter is weak" propaganda to newer players so they can all feel like victims for as long as they play d2

[little pewter]

can mommy and daddy stop fighting in the questions channel

[cerulean sail]

[brave canyon]

This server without beef is boring

We Stan those who argue

[cerulean sail]

How else would I pass the 20 diabolical minutes I need to sit in the sauna for other than browsing discord

I saw Cyrus typing I’ll ask a destiny question. Duo flaw VoG when ?

[sudden egret]

FYI, the steam in a sauna can break your phone

[brave canyon]

I got my Kill Shot finally

[brave canyon]

LA has dry saunas

[cerulean sail]

literal hell simulator

[glad crag]

Ew LA

[sudden egret]

Don’t like those

[dark mango]

im down whenever

[brave canyon]

I work tn but im off at 11 est

[glad crag]

Old Chicago > Current LA

[dark mango]

that works

[brave canyon]

LA fitness

I’m not in the land of cooks and nuts don’t worry

[glad crag]

Even worse XD

Anytime Fitness

[brave canyon]

Nah that place raggedy

It don’t have the machines like LA

[glad crag]

Bro needs machines

We got us a clanker supporter

This is why I workout at home

[brave canyon]

There ain’t nothing better than the plate loaded shoulder press machine

[dark mango]

machines can be nice for certain lifts

i dont see how i can do leg curls with dumbells 🙃

[brave canyon]

Even using machines for a different variations of exercises you could do without them

[sudden egret]

this doesn't look awkward at all

[brave canyon]

I do the incline and decline bench press machines, but I sit in them sideways and do one arm at a time to focus the muscle more

[hushed grove]

do i buy it

its so iconic

i wonder if anyone actually remembers what this is

[sharp flicker]

loot cave?

and I never even played d1

[brave canyon]

My brothers first legendary engram turned into Mida

Mine turned into a rare

[hushed grove]

peak

mida in d1 was impeccable in crucible

i miss my d1 outbreak prime

i would shit on lobbies at a time with that and devils dawn with firefly

absolutely goated loadout

if it wasnt devils dawn itd be matador 64

[glad viper]

Why is this game so buggy right now? I can’t even load the portal tab it’s just a black screen

[dark mango]

i do the chest fly machine with 1 arm at a time it feels amazing

[rancid tundra]

i do not activly work out, but im on my feet for work so i get something done

[glad viper]

Did they remove weekly challenges for the masterworked weapons for the Fireteam and Arena Vanguard Alert playlists?

[rancid tundra]

once its not sub zero outside, ill bust out the rusty garage weights

[sudden egret]

no but sometimes it's bugged and doesn't show on certain chars. switch chars and see if you can see them

[glad viper]

Ty just tried this and it worked

[livid needle]

I keep it on mine for stun and crowd utility

[terse bolt]

Does Pinnacle Ops still drop Mint Retrograde?

Tragic 🙁 Psi Aeterna my next best bet then?

[cerulean sail]

yep

[terse bolt]

Ty ❤️

[sharp flicker]

its not

at all

still probably the best titan build for - delta

if u dont need to dps

so like portal activities and gms

[hushed grove]

yall reckon these are good as a bundle for £170 lol

technically destiny because of loot cave and servitor

[rustic dome]

Can you farm the 1st encounter of the dungeon for the taken blade?

[orchid tinsel]

whats the deal with parasite am I supposed to shoot myself and then the enemy? is there a build or weapon combo for it?

[cerulean sail]

no, it needs all 3 encounters completed

[cerulean sail]

you just stack it to x20 and shoot the enemy

[rustic dome]

But Ive seen some get it from the 1st chest

[cerulean sail]

nobody does the shooting yourself for the buff part, it's not worth much

[cerulean sail]

it can be in any order, just all 3 encounters

so if you started on second encounter from a checkpoint, beat the final boss and restarted the dungeon you could get it from 1st encounter

[cerulean sail]

you cant

i would just show off the 3 expect phase limit

cuz that ones obvious

[limber tartan]

How can I stop sucking at Shatterskating?

[cerulean sail]

practice

[limber tartan]

What is the easiest way to do it? I took two hours and could only do it less then 6 times

[cerulean sail]

custom crucible match on Eternity with fast spawning heavy crates

[limber tartan]

I meant the skating in general but I also will steal that

[cerulean sail]

standing on or close enough to a ledge is the only real requirement, then you take out your sword for eager edge, sword heavy, jump and dive

[edgy cave]

how can i instantly tell which side goes off and which one goes on in final encoutner sundered doctrine

[cerulean sail]

you can probably practice without ever stowing the sword but then i fear you'll fuck up the muscle memory when you try to do it with eager edge procced

[cerulean sail]

lore knowledge, whichever "story" told by the icons from top to bottom is false needs to be on, true one needs to be off

[limber tartan]

so as i'm at the edge, I edge heavy jump and THEN do the dive action.

[cerulean sail]

yes, has to be quick

[limber tartan]

how quick?

[cerulean sail]

few hundred milliseconds

[limber tartan]

shoot

[limber tartan]

Does mask work with Kinetic weapons? (of bakris)

I know it had some hidden perks like with lord of wolfs

[turbid sorrel]

nope

just LoW, Arc n Stasis

[limber tartan]

Ill have to watch his vid but I wonder what Llama meant by this then

[turbid sorrel]

what subclass

[cerulean sail]

stasis

[turbid sorrel]

cos impact core takes the element of your super

so that makes sense

[limber tartan]

oh yeah sorry, stasis hunter

[turbid sorrel]

yea thats an outlier

[limber tartan]

ah ok, I forgot about that. I just came back to the game lol

so because impact takes my super, that counts as the stasis dmg?

[cerulean sail]

bakris makes you do 10% more damage to stasis debuffed enemies

you're aplying slow with impact core

[waxen ibex]

the bakris is there mostly to buff your other weapons

the lightsaber is generating dodge energy and is an infinite ammo ad clear multitool

and then you have a giant light shift x3 megabuffed rocket pulse and arc/stasis heavy

[limber tartan]

how does that work when it's weapon dmg?

[cerulean sail]

what

[limber tartan]

I was confused, it says weapons and not the debuffs

[limber tartan]

oh nice, the hidden part

where did you find that? for my future reference

this is awesome

[mortal cloud]

I'm sorry I haven't played in a while but is... barrow dyad better with strand subclass titan or prismatic?

[turbid sorrel]

barrow isnt subclass dependent

can use with whatever

[tulip oar]

It was used a lot with Arc during Heresy, but that's mostly because of how busted they made Bolt Charge with the artifact perks

[sharp flicker]

🤔

not rly

hunter is probably the class that takes the least advantages out of it I would even say

good hunter builds already have pretty much 100% abilityuptime

I guess sage can be decent if you are having trouble keeping your grapple up

[coral bramble]

how do I break this dudes shield? its the mission in the campeign of renegades

[stone dome]

how do i check which is the featured raid this week?

[brave canyon]

They’re all featured now

[tulip oar]

Except the newest

[stone dome]

so if i grind deep stone crypt, will i keep getting commemoration drops?

[tulip oar]

Well you can and will get other drops too, but if you're asking if you can farm, the answer is yes

[fathom marten]

Airstrike probably

[hollow oak]

and if I dont have that on me>?

[stone dome]

ok thankss

[fathom marten]

Oh, different boss, probably have to do an objective

[hollow oak]

I did a wipe in case it softlocked

[fathom marten]

You're on the Barge, right?

[hollow oak]

ye

ok yeah it softlocked

whats the current opinions of dragonsbreath

[sudden egret]

finality's auger is the better DoT exotic

[hollow oak]

ok. and whats the current opinions of dragons breath

[sudden egret]

not used much

[sharp flicker]

extremely powercrept

[hollow oak]

as a DoT weapon. what place is it in

[sharp flicker]

weapons are all extremely powercrept unless they are rocket pulses

[hollow oak]

rocket pulse aint in my heavy slot so

[sharp flicker]

then use auger

or a sword to move around

[hollow oak]

sure! wanna do the raid for me?

:3

[sharp flicker]

its a dungeon

[hollow oak]

sundered is?

[sharp flicker]

yes

[hollow oak]

huh. ill look later then

but after that. I cant see any DoT solar heavies that are better in slot

[sharp flicker]

anarchy

[hollow oak]

solar

[sudden egret]

parasite isn't Dot but it will be better dps

[hollow oak]

I prefer being able to swap, shoot, and then swap away

no reload or nothin

[sudden egret]

yes, that's how you use parasite

with a solar hoster mod

[hollow oak]

parasite doesnt reload itself?

holsters dont effect single round weapons tho

[sudden egret]

parasite is the exception

[tulip oar]

Heavy GLs aren't single round so parasite gets treated like all other heavy GLs

[sudden egret]

it thinks it has a drum mag

[hollow oak]

alright. all parasite needs now is range

[sudden egret]

fair, it doesn't work on far away bosses

[hollow oak]

and on my hunter im not walking up the the boss lol

[sudden egret]

you don't need to be that close

[hollow oak]

I think ill stick with this. it works since this build is heavy ignitions

[sudden egret]

it works on like 90% of bosses

sure, dragons breath is a safe DoT weapon

[hollow oak]

I do need to find a special weapon. I dont have Mint cuz bungie decided to sunset it

[stone dome]

question, i joined a raid from the d2 app, but i read the chat there is a checkpoint bot that says about raid service is free to use. will i get banned from joining the fireteam?

[hollow oak]

that stasis pistol from banner would be nice.

[sudden egret]

as long as you aren't paying for a carry or the team isn't cheating, you are fine

[hollow oak]

bungie (so far) doesnt give a shit about the checkpoint bots. all they do is walk in a straight line and provide a service that the Portal already should but doesnt

[stone dome]

i see, ok thanks

[hollow oak]

theyre getting closer. some dungeon stages are in the portal. but they dont give dungeon loot or exotics. so they still need to add encounter selection, and giving proper loot

[high lily]

they do give dungeon loot, its a modifier you have to enable

[hollow oak]

whats the catch

lowers the score?

once a week? lower drops? gotta be some downside

[sudden egret]

no catch, just only one dungeon worth getting the loot for

[hollow oak]

warlord?

[sudden egret]

yeah

for indebted

[hollow oak]

I think whenever a new dungeon/raid comes out. the previous one needs to have its encounters added to portal. instead of people needing to use a 3rd party bot

[sudden egret]

we should just be able to select checkpoints from all raids and dungeons at this point. they literally added it to tdp.

[hollow oak]

tdp?

[sudden egret]

desert perpetual

[hollow oak]

ah

all encounters choosable, all loot available, and all legendaries craftable :3

but only once a new dungeon/raid releases

[sudden egret]

crafting isn't coming back

[hollow oak]

so the whiny endgame babies will shut up

ruined a perfectly good system

and then they made it worse with this featured crap. making all craftable weapons useless in some new content

one can hope. maybe Rising will become more than a mobile cash pig who knows.

only time will tell

[dark mango]

crafting was a shitty system that discouraged people from actually playing the game

[hollow oak]

whats better. people logging in to get a checklist and have fun. or people not logging in at all

[dark mango]

like many things from bungie good idea bad execution

[hollow oak]

the only bad thing about crafting was the existance of harmonics

[dark mango]

if you weren’t logging in because your god roll wasn’t guaranteed maybe a looter shooter isn’t the right game for you with all due respect

the current system isn’t that great either t5s are too abundant and removed the chase

[sudden egret]

na, bad thing about crafting was giving them enhanced perks. craftable weapons just needed to be significantly worse than adepts.

[high lily]

i remember logging in week 1 of each act of Echos, and getting the red borders within a few hours then logging off for the rest of the week

[hollow oak]

it wasnt a garuntee. it removed ONE layer of RNG. so instead of trying to get 5 rows of a weapon to all be perfect, you had to get red borders. harmonics were the problem

[high lily]

the game is a looter shooter

crafting basically removed a big chunk of that

[hollow oak]

exactly. cuz not everyone has endless time

[dark mango]

when did getting the 5/5 ever matter

before crafting it was always just 2/5

[hollow oak]

for pve yeah

[dark mango]

even in the dark ages where there was only one perk in each column this wasn’t that hard to get

[hollow oak]

easy fix!

if you wanna have the rng. DONT CRAFT

aint nobody held you at praxic point and forced you to craft outside of new exotics and the first glaive

thats the problem. is that people who didnt like it. felt the need to bitch and whine. and remove it for those who do

the people who enjoyed crafting, were never going to waste time in an activity they dont like anyway

[dark mango]

except the crafted version is better than non crafted in every way

why would i want to keep a gun without enhanced perks in this day and age

[hollow oak]

thats cuz Bungie hadnt added the upgrade system to weapons yet

[high lily]

you couldnt enhance weapons with patterns unless you crafted then

[hollow oak]

that was their fault for not adding both at the same time

cuz we have enhancing now. but no crafting. when it should be both

hell. id settle for red border PERKS

where you have to unlock each and every perk on its own to use

[high lily]

removing crafting for the new tier system was a good idea because it also meant if youre willing to complete the hardest content (4 feat dungeons/raids) youd be rewarded with Tier 5 RaD loot

[hollow oak]

I barely play anymore and I legit only get T5.

[cerulean sail]

there used to be specific currencies for specific perks that you'd have to earn from completing certain red borders

[high lily]

from patrol content like fireteam/solo/arena/pinnacle ops

[hollow oak]

it wasnt a perfect system. but people are allergic to letting things improve

[cerulean sail]

it sucked so they removed it

[hollow oak]

and it works just as well as dungeon weapons. unless ur some minmaxing freak

hell im using a T4 riptide cuz I dont need a chill clip weapon to be shiny

[high lily]

ok, that wasnt my point

[hollow oak]

the point doesnt exist. people who didnt like crafting, fucked over those who did. end of story

[high lily]

for content that actually matters and (usually) has the best loot, you have to add feats to earn the highest quality loot

which is how it shouldve been in the first place

[hollow oak]

mm yes

make stuff even HARDER to get

already bad enough that some pvp weapons dont have a pve counterpart

[high lily]

good loot should be harder to obtain yea

[hollow oak]

it should take more work, not be harder

[high lily]

harder is more work

[hollow oak]

my favorite example is that my friend has been playing since vanilla d2. and STILL DOESNT HAVE MYTHOCLAST

[dark mango]

why do you need the best gear if you aren’t playing difficult content?

[hollow oak]

harder has the posibility of impossiblility

[hollow oak]

because id like to be able to use what looks fun maybe?

[high lily]

then get the better loot from the difficult content

[hollow oak]

cool! make the difficult content possible without needing a fucking teacher

[high lily]

it very much is

[hollow oak]

let me do the same shit 10 thousand times, rather than do something overcomplicated once

[high lily]

then dont play a looter shooter

the whole point of this game is grind

[hollow oak]

bro hasnt played borderlands

[high lily]

i have

[hollow oak]

nothing in borderlands is hard. its just RNG

[high lily]

being under leveled with subpar weapons feels bad

[hollow oak]

I want to grind, not suffer
