is that a primary or special
I was hoping there was still a way to farm for it… since I want the god roll but guess I’ll have to pray xur sells the god roll eventually lol
autorifle
what about a really good special weapon then
Is the recluse craftable?
lost signal still good at generating dark energy on prismatic
mint retrograde is best in slot but only obtainable rn through hawthorne
yeah problem with destiny is that if its a good weapon you have to grind for, its either gonna be behind endgame pve content or like trials guns
if it were easier to get you wouldnt have to grind for it
plenty of good guns you dont have to grind for of course
tbf riptide drops very often in pvp, both riptide and gizmoweft can be obtained through medal deposits also so hopefully more of an afk farm
scatter signal is a pretty good kinetic fusion rifle that drops from the starcrossed exotic mission, i think thats in rotation next week or the week after
It’s been a LONG time since I’ve last played d2 how on earth do I launch into trials of Osiris?
buy a card from saint 14 in the hanger
trials mode available in the crucible section of portal
It is? Cause I don’t see it, and I did buy the ticket from saint 14
do you own renegades?
you are in this screen?
Nope I was in fact not in that screen🤦♂️
Man I’m dumb. I see it now thank you lol
Still re learning all the things since I last played 3 years ago lol
I love misinfo 🥀
Portal launched in a poor state but people think thats part of the EoF expansion
I’m a returning player of like 5 years and I am so insanely lost about generally everything, I want to get back into the game but am probably going to need a decent bit of guidance and would love people to play with if anyone wants to train my ass up 😭
Chat what major things come with it? Only expansion I don't have and idk if I'm missing out on much
Good story/campaign, great raid with great weapons, especially the exotic
Melas Panoplia is a more fun synthos for solar
Eunoia sucks
Morai is fine but sucks in high end, easily the best strand hunter exotic though
Oh ok good then, im not much of one for the champaign stories nor am I good at all at raids
Also exclusively warlock
Shadowkeep (moon campaign) and Beyond Light (europa campaign) are both free to play now, including the stasis subclass
Oh I bought every dlc in the game anyway Brodie
Other than dungeon keys
I just wanna play so bad but I’m overwhelmed asf and out it off
Rest of the expansions in order are Witch Queen -> Lightfall -> Final Shape -> Edge of Fate -> Renegades
Do u reckon I just play through all of the campaigns first as a solo ?
Also do I have to play through all the campaigns again for each guardian cuz I tend to switch between the three a lot
Okay thanks king
Yes
Last time I played was legit like the Cabal
I think that’s what they’re called Red War or somet
But I just bought the legacy edition and then bought prophecy both from G2A to start playing again
The red war, curse of osiris, warmind and forsaken campaigns are no longer in the game and have been for 4-5 years
Yeah that’s what I mean that’s like the last time I played properly I feel so unc 😭
Do u know if there’s any groups for like new players or servers that help people that wanna learn the game ?
No idea sorry
All good bru thanks for the info
i uh I just now realized I have not mentioned this but, pure Arc or Prismatic? Stormdancer's Brace
might as well delete pure subclasses right now
then there would really be no point in playing pure arc
or for an exotic/aspect that makes it into a charged mega single shot beam
Arclock is great with Sunstar
now I consider
Prismatic could have me Devour and Courage BUT, no Ionic Sentry or Arc Soul
What's the best pure subclass for Warlock and why is it Arc?
Ionic sentry is useless with sunstar fyi
you can use any exotic transmog on it though
Stormdancer's Brace big pp damage
for the UUUUNNLIMITEEED POOWEERRRR super
throw Sentry, arc soul and super. BAM beeg damagio
use THIS while super down
rinse repeat, I guess
use jagged edge
Wat?
Did you just say all warlock helmets are ugly
they kinda shit ngl
hardest part to transmog, legendary ones even more
anyway
I just have a mental block when it comes to sunstar
same goes for cenotaph 
no way
its more damage
but 11 less ammo
you have infinite with the current artifact and catalyst
yes but hear me out
what happens when the season ends? HUH!? What then?
I try to make my builds non-dependent on artifact mods, for obvious reasons
damn that also reminds me, wtf is going to happen to the Praxic Blade once the season is over?
doom feeling rn
it's going to be the same
itll be slightly weaker for dps
and ad clear
but should be the new thunderlord
weaker for ad and major clear Im not so sure
but it sure as shit will take a mega hit in the ammo economy 

OH I KNOW! I could use Khvostov
or maybe uhhhh 4th hourseman?
nvm I just settled for Finality's Auger + Psi Aeterna lol
it will
all the sword artifact mods
rn they give minor weaken, infinite ammo and uhhh what was it 15% more damage?
oh and the aoe spinny thing that also does damage
The sword has that perk that gives ammo back on hits, so the ammo economy wont be THAT bad, minor weaken can be applied by fucking everything
now the 15% damage buff will be missed, however not THAAAT make-it-or-break-it
lightsaber has infinite ammo on its own
you wont have the spinny swords around you killing everything
kinda is
artifact is hard carrying it as easy dps
ammo isnt an issue regardless
how do you farm triple laureate? I have 2 tier 5s and I was wondering if only the tier 4s were farmable
tier depends on power level, you get t5s once youre 450 power
Triple Laureate is also an event weapon, so youll have to play the event gamemodes for it
Can I increase power level from pvp alone?
yea but its significantly slower than pve
is that shit actually doing work?
of course
they're not gonna completely gut the saber after season is over, will they? 
no
it's not like they will want to completely bury everything renegades related once it's over, right?


it's a live service game, what's good changes from one season to the next
doesn't mean they're directly telling you not to look back at renegades, in shame
idk man
bungie is kinda like that
butr
all I can realisticaly do is hold fast and hope for the better

On one hand, Destiny has always been Star Wars coded and has been from the beginning. On the other hand, I don't know how much they need Lucasfilms approval to do stuff with it.
well we solved the problem in the star wars inspired story, they can just never mention things from it again
Tharsis is the first major social space since the Reef, I find it at least a little hard for them to say nothing on it in the future
guardian we haven't renewed the star wars license so we have to remove renegades from the game share this to 5 other guardians or dredgen bael will visit you in your sleep
Does power level matter or not when the activity says power level disabled? tl;dr im trying to do last wish final checkpoint as returning player but I get insta booted from fireteam when I join lol. I'm only 305 power level
If it's disabled, it doesn't matter
And if you're joining other people, your power level should be raised up to almost their level either way
basically
if lucasfilms/disney says so, we'll never get another praxic blade cosmetic again
Again, depends on how much they need approval for something
they could make cosmetics for it with different blades, i don't think disney or lucasfilms own a patent or copyright for sword with energy blade
Legally distinct lightsaber
I mean it makes actual lightsaber sounds I don't think they can say it's legally distinct
How do you get the different stones for the lightsaber?
hover over them, it tells you their sources
Why would they
Renegades was designed to begin with as side content
Guarantee the contract allows bungie to be autonomous with everything that isn't directly licensed mtx or lifted straight out of star wars
They were very intentional with keeping everything important to just inspiration
How much stat do the Font mods give? Like Grenade or Super Font mods.
Also how bad is the diminishing returns?
1 -> 2 -> 3
20-40-50
thank you!
I assume it works in the background, because I didnt see a number change in the stat menu when testing
If I can only get to 180 nade stat on swarmer lock build should I use a font?
whats gonna happen to the event class items at the end of guardian games?
itll be 0 power
And the set bonus won’t count
how much heatlh stat do i want for pvp?
150+
when should i go more than 150? is it just personal preference?
kinda, yeah
200 does feel really good
also, should i run in-flight compensator or more targeting mods on my helmet? I use a double handcannon setup and i dont find myself jumping that often.
so like
guys
Sunstar gets your more chaos reach supers than Geomags?
truth time please
no, more of your other abilities
which are arguably stronger anyway
then swap to geomags for dps
THIS is what im running rn. Should I change anything?
its so over
Why do you gotta wear the class item gg again ?
do i need the dlc to do this quest?
trials requires the latest dlc
you can do most of the quest but not that step
how much weapon do i need to 3 tap in pvp?
depends on the weapon
sightline survey and other 180 rpm
sightline 3 taps with PI
- weapons
it's something around 187 iirc but I would check with #📕crucible-playbook to make sure
169 weapon with PI
i tested it 2 months ago again
so go 170 bc stats are mostly in steps of 5
does anyone know how to obtain the smoke jumper set
You can't
it's currently unavailable as a drop, with no date on when it'll be available again.
itll be available june 9th
2 chances a week from pinnacle and raid clan engram
I stand corrected
It’s very close to can’t
how do you get it from pinnacle ops?
Do a pinnacle op with a clan mate and one of hawthorns engram turns into a clan engram
And it can drop any of the pinnacle op loot from last season
well shit
But you can only do it once a week
i havent been in a clan since beyond light 
so much promised for june 9th
i wanna see the player numbers jump to over 15k concurrent at that point
It’s probably usually over that
Steam Charts only tracks Steam and not the other two platforms that usually make up more players
And Steam is really only lower because they have to compete with the insane number of other games on Steam
when it comes down to it, they should just make the numbers available via the api, I see no reason why they don't have it implemented already considering the amount of external sources that have access to it.
how do i get memento?
I may be wrong, but I don't think you can get them anymore
You can
^ I stand corrected
There are several mementos: Iron Banner, Trials, Raids, etc
They are and aren’t. popularity.report uses the API to track unique logins across all platforms. I do not know if that means it is impossible to track concurrent players or that he just doesn’t want to.
So i can get a memento from any of those? Is it a random drop?
They all have different methods. Guardian Games has one, along with the rest of the annual events, that you can get from Eva Levante. If you find it in her menus, it should tell you what you need to do to get it.
Trials comes from flawless runs to the Lighthouse, meaning seven wins, probably in a row. It is also random on top of that.
Gambit and Vanguard I’m unsure of given the changes to the portal but they could be random drops from Gambit and Grandmaster Vanguard Alerts.
Raids are random drops from full clears. Salvation’s Edge, Vault of Glass, and Garden of Salvation have one each, the rest do not to my knowledge.
Iron Banner is a random drop from Iron Banner.
are you able to do the very first bit of kings fall solo? just the gates section for the chest
no

the chest also doesnt drop anything unless youve already got something from the raid
not the findable chest the chest you earn i just need that one
yes, it works the same as a secret chest, the starting section isnt an encounter
Hey guys, I'm a returning player to the game and I've just got a few questions regarding buildcrafting.
-
Well, I guess this one is a vague question but, (if there is one,) what's the main way of increasing your damage output? I don't know if there's anything I'm missing in regards to that, I haven't found anything that directly increases your damage.
-
Since I'm a titan, I'm wondering how to increase my survivability, using mods or fragments or aspects, if anyone here knows a lot about titan, that'd be awesome!
-
When trying to make a build, is there any good way to figure out the exotic armor piece that would have good synergy with what you're trying to do?
Well, for the first question, there are very, very, very many things that directly increase damage, in the form of subclass buffs, debuffs, weapon perks, armour perks, artefact mods, and more.
Some examples are Solar's Radiant weapon buff, Void's Weaken debuff, and there's about a billion weapon perks in a list far too long to actually... list.
Survivability kind of depends on the subclass you're running. A Sentinel can invest into Overshields and Devour, for example, but a Sunbreaker would be looking at totally different effects.
As for armour, a fair amount of it does come down to reading, browsing, and game knowledge. Exotic armour is typically the core of most builds, however, so finding an armour piece and working from there is an effective start.
To rephrase that, you find an Exotic armour piece, read the effect, and consider which ways you can best invest into that effect.
If it's melee focused, look for your best or most relevant damage melees, maybe grab a Shotgun with One-Two Punch, a perk increasing melee damage. Stuff like that.
Do you have any specific things in mind yet?
I was looking at something yeah, but I wasn't sure if I was even looking in the right direction. I'll go on the game and check cause I forgot what it was called, hold on
Also thank you so much for your advice so far!!
so I'm running the Hallowfire Heart and trying to build a solar titan around that. There's just a ton of different mods, aspects, and fragments to build around, it's very overwhelming as a new player. Do you have any tips for building a solar titan, or are there any better options for this type of build?
If there's any way to "send" a build, i could show you what I've cooked up so far, and maybe I could get some feedback on how I can improve it
For specifics, you might be interested in browsing #titans-foundry or #1135936155527946280, but the very baseline for Hallowfire is using Solar weapons to help get Solar kills, and focus on Sunspots. Your first Aspect is basically chosen for you, Sol Invictus, so you can actually make Sunspots in the first place.
Sol Invictus has a strong synergy with Scorch, as Scorched enemies create more Sunspots, so finding ways to apply that is very strong too. Sunshot, for example, is a reliable ad-clearing Exotic Primary to run. Its explosions apply Scorch.
Hallowfire is all about getting more ability energy, so you can also think about that more, too.
Ember of Torches for free Radiant on melee hit, and Radiant is more weapon damage, for example.
I'm no Titan main, so my advice is a bit general, but that's where #titans-foundry may help more.
hallowfire isnt recommended btw, solar titan's melee is instantly refundable just from picking it up
also you already create sunspots on ability kills and killing scorched targets (scorch is a solar verb that does damage over time, kinda like youve set them on fire)
and the ability regen only works if your super is fully charged, which you dont really want to be holding onto
Hallowfire has always been the funny cousin to Heart of Inmost Light for that reason haha
It looks fantastic though
Thank you for your insight. I have been running Sunshot and trying to apply lots of scorch and spam my abilities, so I guess I'm headed in the right direction, but thank you for the clarity :)
This will definitely help me figure out the direction to go from here. Thank you!
Do I have to be allied to the corresponding faction in order to complete a syndicate contract?
if you mean the priority contract, then yes. whatever syndicate you are alligned with will give you a daily priority contract and since you can't switch syndicates more than once perday you'd have to switch before doing the contract for that day if you wanted to do it for a different syndicate
Is light advantage still a thing in Iron Banana?
Can't find a straight answer on Google or reddit, are raids finally farmable without them having to be in weekly rotation? Would like to farm RoN for conditional if this is the case
yes
you can farm for conditional
i believe its every raid except dp
Ty brudder
same with dungeons except eq (but you can farm the dark crystal)
hasnt been for years
I am trying to complete the regular contracts but I cant seem to make progress on any of them after doing a couple jobs?
havent played since witch queen, but i got like 200+ raid clears - can someone tell me what the current best dps rotations are for the different raids so i dont throw when i join up on an lfg?
you wouldnt have the gear required for those rotations
but you could get started by getting Psi Aeterna from portal activities, specifically with Blast Distributer + Elemental Honing
what class are you playing
hunter for pvp warlock for pve
the best rotations use exotics you dont have
ah lol i see
if you have Final Shape you'll have access to the new Prismatic subclass, and could put together a warlock build using Getaway Artists
the arc soul from Getaway Artist and the new Hellion aspect are pretty decent for damage while you shoot your guns
a pulse? are we in a primary dps meta?
its a special ammo pulse rifle that shoots rockets
whats like in theory the best dps rotation rn tho? like the anarchy double slugs of today
so i can make like a check list on what to grind for
Finality's Auger (from Sundered Doctrine) or Whirling Ovation (from The Desert Perpetual) + Mint Retrograde (currently unobtainable but will be in the june 9th update)
imo Whirling Ovation is best
how do i get the catalyst for this
oh, so the meta is just shooting a rocket launcher? :((
people use both Mint Retrograde and Psi Aeterna in their dps rotations but ive never ran out of ammo in mine
fully charging it, shooting it, 4 bursts of the rocket pulse to fully charge, then shooting it again
ah alr, that sounds better
banshee might have a quest, if not, unlocking the catalyst from the current season pass should give you it
but you said that i also need an exotic armor piece for that rotation no?
getaway artist on prismatic is just a super solid all rounder
great for roaming and doubles up as good backround damage while you shoot weapons
i see
so for the best raid dps rotation i need a rng raid exotic
lmao
whats the best for trying to get to that point tho? sorry for the annoying questions but i kinda dont wanna throw on my dps when trying to farm for it
or does a div bitch still exist? i heard it got nerfed
Div was nerfed midway through Witch Queen and only ever sees use when linears are meta (which was only the case back in Episode Heresy)
just Psi Aeterna would be fine, if you have anarchy ig that would also be decent with it
alr
so a psi aeterna getaway artist anarchy build?
is psi aeterns just a random drop?
yea, from portal activities that arent Crucible or Pinnacle Ops
heres the prismatic build
https://dim.gg/yiz6xxi/Prismatic
youll probably have to look up a guide for some of the fragments though
lmao
yea everything is very different
i just got addicted to marathon and missed the bungie gunplay which is why i returned
Anyone else experiencing audio bugs with the triple laureate? Sometimes the audio is completely mute for the user and the opponents
How do I get the final warning catalyst? Googling it I keep getting different answers
anything worth it in Xur strange engram?
no
how do i get speleologist? im new to the game
xur?
what do you need it for?
its on a build i saw on youtube (i havent unlocked prismatic yet so im making a solar build in the meantime)
most likely outdated
it was 11 days ago tho
what vid?
can i send it here or do i send in dms?
here should work
DIM Link:https://dim.gg/l2hh4hq/PvP
Destiny 2 Ultimate Solar Hunter Build.
Explosive Solar Hunter Build Destiny 2.
there u go
ill take ur word on it
the spele roll stinks too
what else do i use? this build was pretty easy to make which is why im using it
the lmg you asked about?
the perks on it in that vid weren’t good
I'm attempting to do the evidence quest board on the witch queen campaign but one of the quests is bugged called "altar of reflection: catalyst" do I need to do this evidence board quest for the exotic glaive
blade barrage
gamblers dodge
knife trick healing nade
knock em down, on your mark
torches ashes singeing empyrean wonder
define bugged
as in you can’t accept it?
is this what ur saying i should run
ye
Boss just can't be damaged at all all the mobs stop spawning
can u explain the difference sry
Looking up the steps it says there should be named enemies to kill but they never spawn
build in vid is focused on scorching with skyburners and igniting with weighted knife
while using the dmg buff from ophidia
which is just a bit redundant
Pretty sure you can still skip that using well or shatterskate
What's that ?
IMPORTANT: Don't start the encounter! Leave the adds alone!
Due to a bug in the Witch Queen mission: Altar of Reflection: Catalyst (its insight in the video because I didnt clip the catalyst run) the Shrieker Boss does not open. For that reason you are unable to complete the required quest for the exotic glaives.
Fortunately I found a way to jus...
Are you Hunter or warlock ?
Titan 😔
You can use armamentarium and double grapple nade as well
Just look up on YouTube how to do the titan skip
Who knows it’s been bugged forever
Like literal months
Probably getting close to a year at this point
ophidia aint good?
yep
the super does a ton
i was just wondering if the triple knife (assuming all were to land) has higher damage than the weighted
with ur melee stat being ur focus
oh no it does
any recommendations?
sunshot
i have that
works nice
the main focus is melee spam
knife trick doing the most with all 3 precision hits
okidoki
what is the main difference between sunshot and skyburners oath tho? i found sunshot to do basiccally no damage
sunshot is for addclear, skyburner's oath... exists
sry if im asking a lot, i just want to understand what im doing so id ont have to come back each time
okay thank you
so not rly dps just for ad clears
skyburners just scorches
and pierces cabal shields
but really it’s just for ignition purposes, maybe in pvp as well
yeah, all infinite ammo weapons are not good for dps and only few are fallbacks in case you've run out of heavy and special ammo
i see
what does melee energy mean when hovering over the melee substat
melee ability charge
how fast it recharges or the amount of recharge you get
then shouldnt i try get class ability stat instead of melee stat since my dodge refreshes 2 MELEE ability usages, rather than a mere 2% or so damage and slightly faster regen
50 class stat should be enough since proximity to enemies doubles the energy refund so you get your full charge back if you dodge next to enemies
okidoki
last question and im gone i promise, how do i get sunshot catalyst or any catalyst matter of fact
random chance from portal activity completions, you can see sources in Collections → patterns & catalysts
i cant see sunshot anywhere in those catalysts though
it's an energy weapon
you’ll refund your knife trick with knock em down and ember of torches
0-100 for your melee determine its recharge
100-200 is extra dmg for your melee ability
so 100 melee is enough no?
no
ophidia spathe is melee spam
along with the exotic itself buffing your knife trick, you’d want it to do more dmg
so if i want melee spam i should aim for 100 class nbo
less
singeing will handle a bit of class regen
since knife trick scorches
what do yall think of this
i am very happy with it
its perfect
i can now counter all champions
feels nice
looks nice
If you are having fun, don’t mess with it
what’s the fastest way to farm class item
Xur technically
pvp weapon
Play portal -> earn strange coins -> buy class items from xur
yeah i love its perfect for me
yes but i have that as primary and anti shield
psi as seccondary as anti overload and for dpm
and gpg for the ogres... forgot their name
unstoppable? perfect
You don’t need a primary for pve anymore
so we’re still using solar
i do for gpg and anti barrier
what can i say i love my solar
returned memory enters the chat
i will have you know i have a seccondary loadout too
solar yes golden gun nuke
whats that and is it free
Rocket sidearm from portal last season
Not currently in game but will be back with June update hopefully
I’ve literally used it as a primary all season
sunshot is already anti barrier but u have radiant
Contest EQ I ran mint and returned then switched to psi for DPS
Tinasha's (should) come back sooner on April 14
Is it coming back tiered ?
the free aberrant when i didn’t have echoes

sunshot takes my psi spot tho
and i have the thing that makes all revolvers anti barrier
so keep it
till then i found my loadout
but you don’t need crimson
i kept my psi cause its my best damage weapon
what else am i supposed to you as a primary then? i dont have anything better
don’t use one?
something something but thats special
yall like that thing?
i hate it
you are anti barrier it comes free with solar and torches
i should remind you i am hard focusing on ophidia
yes but psi doesn't destro barriers
what happens if i dont have special ammo
what then
i dont have any better primary
oh my sweet jesus
jokes aside, let’s see ur artifact
uuuh
one sec
can you see my artifacts through dim?
you still havent removed tempering 💀
MO
NO
i have
this is bullshit
hold on
i specifically remember
no
I DID NOT PUT THAT THERE
no
bungie is trolling me
at least you're not like that ember of tempering on sunbracers loadout guy that cursed us out for trying to objectively prove it does nothing
I AM AWARE (in my case) its useless
i am still a noob
but i have a significantly better understanding of how shit works now
and i specifically do not remember putting that there
nor do i see a reason to
hold on cause i dont remember what that is
i haven't learned the names yet
since it’s on ur artifact
yes
OK i swear thats what i had
i had singeing
i remember going over my loadout
when i was doing golfen gun nuke
i remember taking a look at melee spam build to try and maximise anything
yeah yeah yeah now the important part
about that
tried it
and takes too long when on 2 melee kills i get gpg
already tested it against many unstoppable champions works like a charm
you have ember of torches, right?
yes
radiant stuns?
while radiant
didn't knew that
you can stun barrier champs
never did i express that
hence, you do not need crimson
or any anti barrier weapon in solar for that matter
because you are the anti barrier
and anti unstop
it should state what can stun what champs, next to your weapons
right
but
but
rocket launcher doesn't stun shields
also ok lets say i agree fine
what else do i put on primary? something something? good choice but my build is upclose...so no pointless
does
says all now
to elaborate
when you are radiant, any weapon stuns barrier champs, unless they already have a champ stunning property.
ignitions stun unstoppables, which you can easily do
- you’d have to show a clip of you trying to stun with a rocket launcher
- triple laureate
ik which is what i am taking advantage with gpg
thank you val
how tf do yall play with laureate
i gave it a go and almost puked
also why does it matter if it's laureate or crimson i dont have any better exotic weapons anyways
the rocket launcher will stun shields if you hit the rocket while you have radiant buff on
never through to do that ngl
... now you realize what @twin peak was trying to tell you
shotgun then
but yall dont realise i dont have anything better
- i am stubborn i like what i like
GIVE ME ONE
then i can’t help you
i am not joking when i say
besides i have pound cake to eat
i dont have anything better
same
well idk how to explain bu similar
no clue what that is i only do solo and guardians games
did and its awful
hated every moment
crimson at least is fun and honestly i dont see why yall hate it so much
what roll did u have?
because it does nothing that the entire subclass isn’t handling
i don’t hate it
no clur seen multiple ones and i hate all of em
if we go by that
gpg doesn't fit here either
but i like it
what is this shotgun for btw
i’m suggesting it for 12p
ahh
dont have it but i am intrigued too
kinetic slot
well if you don't have a 1-2p shotgun maybe try bastion idk
forsaken part of monument right?
shadowkeep i think
well what does laureate do that crimson doesn't?
crimson has better damage
better range
heals on kills
and reloads the mag on precision kills what about laureate
... crimson has better damage than a spreadshot hc? huh
seems like it
from what i played
this is the stubbornness i feared
XD at least i admit i am stubborn
unless you are taking potshots at long range i don't see how that's possible lol
well at cqc i have knife trick
so why use a gun at all?
12p proc
wtf is that
one-two punch
oh
one-two punch. hitting most pellets in a shotgun shot buffs your melee damage
i remember getting laureate just because of that
i think due to phoneutria shenanigans with lightweight 12p was lessened on spreadshots no?
fine i will try it one more time if yall this insisting
although I already know i will switch to crimson i am definitely curious to see my melee damage with ophidia tho
spreadshots only get 75% melee damage boost yeah, special shotguns give 150% iirc
i’ll check bastion numbers in compendium
i remembered why i hate laureate it was the range after some distance the pellets disappeared
bastion is 300%
can i alleviate this?
not really. it's just how shotguns work in this game
they're not for mid/long distance
damn...
no no i wasnt sniping
i was trying to shoot gpg
Not as far as I know, I fell off of Laureate for the same reason, lol 😅
right you me vs those 2
i guess spreadshots do have that problem
i say crimson
they say laureate
crimson is nothing in this situation
the problem with crimson is it's kind of just there, it's not synergizing with your build at all
ik im
I feel like I need more context, are we just talking about getting more melee damage?
ik
ophidia spathe build
rather than something that actually works with the melee build ur using
look
i do whats fun
not whats more optimized
which is why i use gpg on spathe
fair enough
clearly
not gonna say more then haha
idc about being competitive
i honestly find that gpg instead of on your mark on solar makes it impossible to have fun cause no healing personally
division question
the grenade thing
forgot
anyways
uh?
i actually dont struggle with that?
do any sets work nice with bluescreen?
tipping scales, negotiatior's dilemma
d2 has trained me not to use yt for builds
haven't thought to myself i die too fast ngl i have a healing nade and i get heals from gpg good enough for me
different playstyle?
i tend to be a rat hit and run
i learned about spathe from yt
i think i saw it from a big YouTuber and loved it
i like to run into combat and stay there
yep not me
i see why
When you try and throw a healing nade at your feet and blow yourself up with a gunpowder gamble instead
i hit and run
the again, that would be doable for a good bit of content if you just had empyrean instead of tempering
we all make mistakes in the heat of passion
definitely not me tho
cause empyrean makes any solar kills add 3? seconds to timer on resto and radiant
Ngl, gpg sounds pretty funny with spathe, I’m pretty sure it still triggers the melee dmg buff if you hit it with a knife, no?
i do ignore dim its lying
i have empyrean
haven't tested that
I haven't run gunpowder gamble since I finished the new light quest
and it is
the only build i run gpg on is a prism build
every 6 secs you spam a grenade and with the extract thing you get heals on kills
cause that has actual dr
If it counts as a precision hit you could get the knife refund too, lol.
i think i did hit it once but i dont remember
i love crimson for this specific reason
its only job is to explode the gpg xd
sad life
but it is what it is
I only run solar on one build, spathe knife spam
then use an smg, way better for that job
use multimach from banshee
and if you make the hancannon argument: crimson is a pulse, not a real hc
yes BUT
i like boomsticks
and its anti barrier without me actually having to time me being radiant
Don't really need the extra dmg for the content I play, so healing nade fills the gap elsewhere
yet shreds shields
ofc it does with anti barrier mod
nuke golden gun is definitely 2# on my list of fun builds
im saying it plays like a pulse
Aesthetics > gameplay always. If not hand cannon, then why hand cannon shaped?
he gets it
also has blood and spikes
and a tactical knife on it
btw, if you ever get final shape/decide to play prism, https://dim.gg/pq3sqmq/hoil+cyrt-spike-hunter here's a good build that happens to have gpg
say less
you already had me on gpg
if you really want to use an hc, you can swap out choir for sunshot ig
context bolto has been trying to get me to use something other than sunshot for months
and melee is mainly to apply debuff
correction, other than a handcannon
psure
paid content anyways
i plant to spend my money on my car
then Airsoft sooo maybe in 2 years maybe
you cant have everything i switched off of sunshot
take it or leave it
wait until legacy collection goes on sale for $10 in the summer
if i remember it
i never check the server only #🐶pets🐱 i have it on mute too
dont worry will see it
Last word could also be super fun to shoot GPG with. I don’t think the grenade inherits weapon damage so it shouldn’t matter what hits it.
something something
dew it
one, last word is paid, 2, it sucks more than crimson
oh so its perfect for me apart from the 1st part
hipfire could be fun though, which i believe is what @spark charm was referring to
idk that weapon
Ngl, I forgot I got the dlcs from PS+ and that you need the dlcs to get guns from the monument 😭
sooooo
this is what last word does btw
whats your opinion on glaives
i keep getting them which makes .e curious
they suck
oh caydes hun
gun i wanted that so bad
no, his is ace
and ace is actually not completely shit for pve
Kinda fun for melee builds, but the only one I really use is Vexcalibur on my void titan
last word has nothing important besides what was put in the image
i am hard stuck on solo hunter
ooo actually sounds very fun
ive never used it in pve so i wouldnt know
i just use abi spam builds
well maybe one day i might consider paying to get that campaign and beat it
just for that revolver
forsaken doesnt have a campaign
is it first or second slot?
it's top slot
? yes it does
oh really...damn
oh
btw, if you plan to get any dlcs at all, id set apart like $10.5 to get the legacy collection on sale for most of this game's content
i could have sworn i remember watching a yt vid saying to get ace you need to complete that campaign
it's probably old as fuck
sounds fair
2-3 years
A lot of old destiny content is inaccessible
since 4 years ago at least
mo52 Airsoft grenade launcher supercedes all this 
You mainly buy old exotics from a vendor in the tower
RIP red war, I really wish it survived the content cuts, the intro alone was so good 😭
no, being powerless is such a shit intro
genuinely
i played d1 intro and it was so shit
It is crazy cinematic though, which was something I loved, plus Journey is such a good BGM.
I think it’s mostly just personal preference though, I liked red war much more than I like the current onboarding 😭
Here's a question for you, marksman or deadshot?
marksman ofcourse i tried headshot but i hated it
deadshot
with marksman i just one shotted most solo bosses 
and because i used knife trick i just got it again so fast
very fun
my aim is bit poopoo tho
so knife dance gets it done just fine never realised how much you can spam that stuff with the proper armor mods goddamn
what the fjork do I use with Sunstar?
Soul with Mind? Soul with Sentry? Sentry with Mind?
Idk arc warlock is buns
Soul with mind
Sentry is completely useless if youre using Coldheart (you should be with sunstar)
delusional
so like
sunstar build
it's basically spam arc soul rift and throw nades
repeat, yeah?
Spam all 3 of your main abilities yea
I mean you can use whatever in like the portal and shit
But let’s not act like we’re taking arc warlock into some serious end game content 
which one is better?
I do and it works great
You right before we figured out chunk it saw ton of use in contest EQ 
That’s where I was going with serious endgame content
It did but like zero people knew about it
The only time I really entertain arc is stormdancers brace but that’s just higher damage on pris because of courage
There were literally videos uploaded about it beforehand
Well that ball knowledge was few and far between because people didn’t really start catching on until WF was completed in an hour and a half
So like, what does more damagio now?
Chaos Reach with Geomags or Stormtrance with Stormdancer's Brace?
chaos reach but better than stormtrance is, as always, a bar so low in hell that the devil uses it to host limbo dancing competitions.
both supers arent great, even with their exotics buffing them
The problem is they take too long to cast to get the damage
any raids worth doing right now?
Stormtrance is still just a roaming super and Chaos Reach lasts too long to be worth using in any actual damage situation
just Desert Perpetual until June 9th
though itll be worth learning the raids if you havent already
better =/= good.
For add clearing its outclassed, and for DPS its down there as among the worst, though i dont think its the worst? its bad enough to make me hesitate to make that statement
Chaos reach geomags isnt good for DPS against some raid boss, but you can build to make the super cooldown low enough to use it against tougher targets and maybe some add clear.
Its not a build id recommend though
WHY ARE ALL WARLOCK SUPERS SO FUCKING ASS?
and the like two that arent, NEED, exotics to perform
they are not
you just listed two underperforming supers
this is also inaccurate
In fact, two of the most utilized warlock supers for harder content are typically used without any synergy, or the synergy is something that could otherwise be effectively replicated with like half a second longer time
(Well of Radiance and Nova bomb respectively)
Needlestorm is also used sometimes for some reason
Song of Flame for melee bosses usually
with the exception of Stormtrance, Chaos reach, and nova warp, all the warlock supers have some usage
doesn’t need astrocyte but is very nice with it
however there is the matter of the cold elephant in the room
admittedly forgot about pvp's existence
can you blame me
Yes
Prepare to be blamed
What
Nova bomb, well of radiance, song of flame, needlestorm?
the stasis super 
forgot about that one
still, thats half of the supers having some kind of function in PvE
Winters wrath, know its name
and all of the good warlock supers are good without any exotics to help them, and only one super has an exotic that synergises with it. (that people use)
And it only synergises with it because Well counts as both rifts, if it didnt, you could compensate by... casting the empowering rift.
That’s true for all class supers. Half are only useful in PvP
poopers wrath
isnt needlestorm doodoo without the exotic?
And which nova bomb is good? Slowva or vortex?
slowva most of the time is better
ALSO Sullen Claw with eager edge and destabilizing if ads need dying?
sometimes vortex is better if youre at risk of blocking your teams bullets when casting
Base needle is about the same damage as base nova but you have to land all the needles and threadlings.
eager edge weapons shouldnt really be used with killing or damage in mind
they're primarily for movement
If u love pvp that’s all it’s good in
Titan pve supers have it worse, t-crash, twilight are the only useful supers and glacier quake on big bosses.
Yet to see someone rock fists in pve,,
Go back to beyond light
they should revert the ses nerf to twlight
And weapons of light
Banner shield needs another buff too
time for 4.0 class refreshes tbh
3 aspects please
But make each one less powerful
And it’s lvl 30 broken game …
aside from boots
u dont have the memento
I,did.
nah uh
Ya ya
The correct one?
Screenshot proof

no yeah I get that
it's just in a pinch im thinking
so for damage super lock what I should be running then is slowva
Though if I REALLY wanna hurt things, I imagine I should use something like this?
if you want your warlock to do damage you should use well of radiance, song of flame, slowva or sometimes vortex, depending on a variety of factors
are you in a team for starters, and are you doing something like raids or dungeons
i've gotta be the last warlock in the universe to consider ever being a Well bitch again

imo the best defense is offense and "why cc my enemies when I can just kill them?" type shit lmao
big DPS main mindset, always played DPS classes in mmorgps
well isnt used for defence these days
its used for offense
the healing and DR is just a bonus
Oh shyttttt u have contest crota
no
i have news for you
worst day of my raiding life
having a cheater was the worst day?
💀
fuck are u talking about
does flimmy ring a bell
right
was that a guy in the group and cheating???
in your group gang
how do you even know that 😭
holy fuck can I get banned?
I JUST GOT BACK INTO PLAYING SINCE TFS LAUNCHED 
If i speak ik a guy who had a
Cheater in his contest se clear
But we should go back to what this channels main intention is
I went off topic
😭
@glacial hound thanks, now i wont be sleeping right tonight lmao

only have yourself to blame
Yall
Let’s go back on topic
not my fault you went back with the same cheater to do another clear
whar
i mean another 3*
I dont remember any of that shit
how long ago even was crota's end
but whatever, fine report me for literally nothing, get me banned
I sure as shit wont let it end like that for you
?
jezza did you manage to get a raid team for desert
No
I had a cheater in my contest ron clear
He cleared and wasn't even using the thunderlord dps meta
Clear evidence
wait is this zerx
best way to complete the xenology quest?
For me it was doing the solo missions
Around 5-7% each
Expert exotic mission in legacy counts as 7 pts. Could also just do private PvP matches if you’re really bored.
Hey this is gonna be a super dumb question but I recently just got into destiny again and I’m tryna work on my guardian rank, currently working on five but I’m honestly stumped, I’m tryna Que up for the seasonal conquests but it’s not letting me, it’s saying my loadout is incorrect but I’m not sure what’s wrong with it? Can anyone help.?
Needs to be all new gear/exotic
Anything with a blue bookmark on it
Ohh okay thank you
lmfao
what power level should you be to do solo expert lost sectors?
what is this?
random weapon every week if you got enough xp the previous week, don't bother spending bright dust on them it's a waste
Is zavala flashing because of this?
don't think so
how do you most effeciently get prisms and shards now?
rushdown
solo ops on iltimate when its gone
just run the matchmade one?
the customizable with one with a full 3 stack is preferred
better buffs so quicker runs
Y'all, does Wolfsbane outdo the Praxic Blade in terms of damagio?
On top of better damage you get attrition orbs too
Which basically guarantees double supers for any 30 second ish damage phase
OH
okay yeah i want that big time
I was big interested on Whirling Ovation, focus fully switched now LOL
I’d still go for that because you’re probably gonna have more use for that damage rotation than Wolfsbane
still, how would one even fit Whirling into a build? It's such an odd weapon
I’d really only use Wolfsbane on Hunter atp
Double rocket pulse and parasite can cook just about any boss you’d use Wolfsbane for
WO/Auger would be your go to for longer phases or ranged/moving bosses
WO catalyst is like, 100% uneeded right?
also I guess just putting it into warlock buddy build would be peak, same for wolfsbane heh maybe idk
Yeah, doesn’t do anything useful
rocket pulses
takes like 5 shots to fully charge whirling
chae has a rotation with jt
how exactly does anticipation work?
Is it like per shot, then the counter resets or build it up once and stays like that?
@vale meadow help
RIGHT! So rocket pulses basically best pairing
cool!
Now can we get a way to speed up Heirloom's charge as well bungLe? :c
the uhhh wolfsbane, I assume it has an optimal combo for during assault and normal mode?
can someone tell its secrets?
You’re gonna want to pre charge it then you do light light heavy
Then you need to learn how to switch off it before it runs out of the charged mode because you’ll get like half the bar back or more
You basically want it to be in its charged mode that leaves the tornados as much as possible
read about this
gotta swap off about 2 seconds before the thing ends
I think Aegis had it in one of his videos
But that’s basically it
When you’re trying to build back the rest of the charge just do light attacks only
Then again always light light heavy when charged
Understood! Thank you
party peeps
what should i do if i cant meditate by Ikora?? i got two new lights who cant
As in, they've purchased something like a grenade from her and it's not letting them meditate at the thing next to her?
