[twin peak]

encore exotic mission

[jaunty whale]

Nightfalls dont really exist anymore lol

[true lintel]

I love the "Plonk" sound and watching champions get hole-punched at long range

[subtle dock]

where can i start/find that

[jaunty whale]

Pinnacle ops

[true lintel]

I will never not call them nightfalls even if it doesn't really apply much these days

Certified Destiny 2 Unc

I mean, most of my weapons are legacy gear in one way or another anyways

My hunter's sidearm is from, what, like 15 seasons ago? Lol

👴

-# When was "Season of the Warmind" again?

[main pulsar]

You're so real for this

[true lintel]

[main pulsar]

Dude that was 8 years ago

So about 26 seasons ago

[true lintel]

No way, really? Holy

[main pulsar]

Season of the warming was the warmind expansion

So yea that was like season 3

That was in like 2018

[true lintel]

Yeah, I'm definitely an Unc. I still pop people with that SI2 like it's a godroll sidearm LOL

[main pulsar]

I was like 13-14 during then

So Im chillin

[true lintel]

What do you think about the roll I have on it?

[main pulsar]

Lemme see

[true lintel]

https://dim.gg/se6rkea/Equipped

[twin peak]

can’t see rolls on dim

[main pulsar]

Yea I can't see it

[true lintel]

Oh, that's weird

[twin peak]

from the looks of it that perk pool is bad anyways

threat zen maybe?

[main pulsar]

It's hella old I'm assuming

[main pulsar]

Shit probably has full auto on it or some bs

😭

[true lintel]

It's SUPER old. Could roll with full auto as a perk lol

[main pulsar]

Wtf I would use this

💀

[true lintel]

It's lowkey still good tbh

[main pulsar]

It isn't good but it probably feels amazing

[true lintel]

It doesn't have the best range but if someone's in pistol range, I can still cap them with it

[main pulsar]

I would use it

[true lintel]

You'd be surprised how fast it can delete people lol

I'm running full auto on it and it's surprisingly adept at whacking anyone that gets too close for comfort. Snapshot and TD means it's always a quick draw too

[twin peak]

full auto is redundant nowadays

[main pulsar]

You don't need to run full auto

[true lintel]

Why?

[main pulsar]

It's a setting in game now

[twin peak]

there’s a setting for it

[main pulsar]

😭

[true lintel]

[jaunty whale]

This one is from season of worthy

[main pulsar]

You don't need to run it as a mod

Just go to your settings and put on full auto

[true lintel]

I should run quick access or backup mag then

[true lintel]

Oh, so it's not THAT old

[main pulsar]

Targeting adjuster or counter balance

[jaunty whale]

Ye for old weapons its those 2

[main pulsar]

6 years ago

[true lintel]

Targeting would be better. Counter-balance wouldn't be too useful on it given how short the range is

[main pulsar]

Counter balance is the recoil pattern

Of the weapon

[true lintel]

I know

If the target is within spitting distance, their target signature would make recoil direction virtually pointless

Anything above 75 should be fine for CQC like that

[main pulsar]

You can probably shoot much further than you think

[true lintel]

And since it has 95 natively, well...

[main pulsar]

Considering lots of sidearms have like 17+ meters

[main pulsar]

Oh

Then yea counter balance is useless

[true lintel]

I think I'll go with either Targeting or Backup Mag. Those extra 2-3 rounds can mean the difference between defending a control point or looking at a respawn timer

Then again, running full auto as a mod feels a little retro in its own way, just like the gun itself

I didn't even know that was a setting. Absolutely wild to think about lol

[true lintel]

But yes, you are right here. Despite it only having 30 Range, it can still pop lower health targets out to a decent range pretty easily. Very important since I usually run 390 pulses/360 ARs

I know rapids are generally better but I've never liked how they felt to shoot so I avoid them, especially rapid pulses. Rapid autos feel okay but not great

[drifting plinth]

i just hate autos lol

[true lintel]

Really? Why?

[drifting plinth]

last time i used them i just had horrible aim

could use hcs fine

so js used those

[true lintel]

I feel that. Tracking especially with low RPM autos sucks sometimes

[drifting plinth]

for me the lower rpm the better i can aim an auto

lol

[subtle dock]

should i keep or collect my exotic engrams? idk why but i have this strange rememberance that they were used for certain things but idk

[true lintel]

I usually use prefire/suppressing fire tactics to secure kills since some people decide to peak knowing stasis rounds are flying their way still

Especially on low health. It's almost like they expect you to stop shooting so when you don't... they just walk into your line of fire. It's hilarious to me

[main pulsar]

It will probably hit.max damage at least up to 15M+

[main pulsar]

All rapids except scouts and high tyrant suck

[true lintel]

High impact with high caliber rounds

[drifting plinth]

those people are oftentimes very easy to peakshoot against

[true lintel]

The only AR I use in Crucible is a Herod-C with DSR and Moving Target. Feels great to use

[drifting plinth]

only ar i use is no hesitation for funny healer

[true lintel]

Yeah. If even I can win an engagement like that against you, you really screwed the pooch

I'm... not very good at Crucible

[jaunty whale]

Do high caliber rounds even do anything nowadays with the revised flinch mechanics

[true lintel]

I'm not sure but I still run them anyways. Probably legacy knowledge that means very little now

[drifting plinth]

best mag has been ricochet for ages

[jaunty whale]

Yeah, nowadays stability increases flinch resist

[true lintel]

Really? That's actually pretty sick. My Suros pulse rifle has like, 99 stability

[true lintel]

For me, it's usually a tossup between Accurized and Ricochet depending on the gun

On certain reload-centric weapons (kill clip and its derivatives) I'm okay with Flared Magwell, especially if the gun otherwise takes ages to reload (almost any Hakke weapon known to man)

[main pulsar]

Greatest auto oat

It's probably my favorite weapon

Definitely top 5

[true lintel]

I love ARs

I use them in any and all content. Workhorses that don't ask for much and delivers a lot in tandem

[sacred summit]

Returning player from Final shape, should I be axing all my armor and trying to get new stuff or is some of my old weapons and armor still usable? I don't have EoF or Renegades, I'm mostly coming back for dungeons and raids with my buddies.

[main pulsar]

Too bad they all suck atm💔

Prosecutor is just so peak

[main pulsar]

Keep exotics and delete legendaries that have very bad stats

[true lintel]

Considering I still use super old gear, yes you can save some of it

[true lintel]

I don't care if they suck, I just play to their strengths and mind their limitations. Especially slow RPM autos

[main pulsar]

Low rpm autos are the best

[true lintel]

Stellar gameplay fam

[true lintel]

Sometimes I do think the fire rate can be a bit of a handicap, at least when you get rushed. But that's what my 6 year old pistol is for lol

[main pulsar]

It's weird looking at that considering it's almost 2 years old

My aim looks so weird in that clip

[main pulsar]

Nah the fire rate is the plus side to it

Easier to control and more damage

[true lintel]

What I'm referring to is, it's not easy to land shots with low RPM when things escalate to face to face relations. Know what I mean?

Keep 'em at a distance, that's where 360 autos really shine

[main pulsar]

I mean I don't ever have or take engagements where someone is face checking me

So usually my auto is perfectly fine no matter the rpm

[true lintel]

I guess I just have a natural tendency of getting rushed by Titan players lol

[main pulsar]

Yea the moment I see a radar ping get anywhere near me I have a slug out

[true lintel]

I would like a decent 450 though. Just not sure what's out there that I'd actually like for Crucible

[main pulsar]

Prosecutor

[true lintel]

What's that one?

[main pulsar]

Prophecy dungeon

Auto

[true lintel]

Ooh

Any others, or just that one?

[main pulsar]

Uhhhh

Khvostov

Summoner

[true lintel]

Oh nice, the perk pool looks pretty darn good too. I never was able to get good rolls from Prophecy

[main pulsar]

Hell I even used chroma rush

[true lintel]

I remember wanting a Summoner but wasn't around to get it

I got a Messenger with a... strange but usable roll. But, I'll never touch Trials again so I'm stuck with it lol

[main pulsar]

Oh

Tommy's matchbook

I'm just going through this clip dump I have and looking at the most random guns ever

[true lintel]

Tommy's is so much fun as a solar titan with War Rig on

That's more of a pve gun to me though

[main pulsar]

Was broken at a point in pvp around a year ago

[true lintel]

I have a hard enough time staying alive without also burning myself half to death

[main pulsar]

Rdms with tommys was ridiculously OP

[true lintel]

Oooh

Never thought I'd hear about that gun being op tbh

[jaunty whale]

Tbf. Thats why you have a shotgun

[true lintel]

True, but I don't use specials in pvp

[jaunty whale]

And/or a sidearm/smg

[true lintel]

With how often I get clipped, I decided to preemptively deprive them of free ammo by NOT equipping specials. Suck on that!

[jaunty whale]

Sadly now there are special ammo boxes spawning

[main pulsar]

Back then RDMs used to give you the most INSANE hipfire accuracy bonus

• you had infinite dodges

[jaunty whale]

Though now special ammo pickups only give you 1 ammo

[main pulsar]

And then you used the devour on orbs fragment and it would completely give you all your health back

So it didn't even matter if you took burn because you were literally killing people in like .6 seconds and getting devour after every kill

[true lintel]

I'm still not going to hand off more to them!

Besides, dual primary feels really good to me anyway. Not sure why

[cedar hatch]

how do i get fortunes favor?

[subtle dock]

whats the easiest way to get an eager edge sword? i thought i had one lol

[sudden egret]

Farm dares or equilibrium

[subtle dock]

where and what is equilibrium

[sudden egret]

Renegades dungeon

[cedar hatch]

make sure u have at least 1 person, its ass alone

[subtle dock]

oh sweet i lowkey want that new lightsaber

[subtle dock]

welp dares it is

[sudden egret]

That’s not from the dungeon

It’s from the renegades campaign

[cedar hatch]

i gave up on sullen claw, dares got me done right

[subtle dock]

oh its not? i saw light gg said renegades so idk

[subtle dock]

oh i def need a dlc dont i

[cedar hatch]

its from the season yes

[sudden egret]

Yes

Renegades

[cedar hatch]

dares is ftp if dlc is an issue

[subtle dock]

yeah i saw it can be through onslaughts, vanguard, or nightfall but it dont seem to be in rotation ig?

[cedar hatch]

sullen claw or half truths?

/other half

im confused

🐢

[subtle dock]

no it was i think falling guillotine and the other was slammer

[cedar hatch]

ah, pray to rngeezus

[subtle dock]

they not even available rn i dont think anyways

[cedar hatch]

not that i can recall? i think hawethorne might grace you after a few thousand engrams

[subtle dock]

should i keep or collect my exotic engrams? i have this strange rememberance that they were used for certain things but idk

[cedar hatch]

focus them at rahool

[subtle dock]

wym

oh i need ascendant shards

or prisms ig

[cedar hatch]

yeah, if i were you id run portal activities. at least whats available to you. crucible is a good mode to farm for prisms

[subtle dock]

this is just for armor from what i see, i need new weapons lowkey

[subtle dock]

really? did they make these materials easier to get now?

[cedar hatch]

eh, debatable. just try to keep it obove a b grade run

[subtle dock]

um okay?

also abt the exotic engrams, are they used in anything besides rahool? i dont need exotic armor

oh i forgot i can do materials exchange

[cedar hatch]

its really just up to whether bungo likes you today, and yes the archive has the exotic weapons you can buy with them you just have to make sure you have exotic cyphers and 100k glimmer

there is that too

[subtle dock]

where its just cyphers and glimmer it says for me

[cedar hatch]

thats what i meant mb

multitasking

[subtle dock]

so should i test my luck on the engrams then

[cedar hatch]

nah, like i said i would use them at rahool for armor pieces you havent gotten yet

[subtle dock]

wait doesn’t xur need them for something

[cedar hatch]

no, thats strange coins

[subtle dock]

well you need it in the collection in the first place i think and i dont need armor as if now

[cedar hatch]

its the 2nd page that doesnt require collection

and thats alr, just tossing recs

[subtle dock]

how do i decrypt a eververse engram

[cedar hatch]

so. my turn. whats a good roll for a pulse rifle?

[subtle dock]

dk im a returning player lol

[cedar hatch]

go to tess, opposite of rahool.

[cedar hatch]

ik lol, was hoping for toes or jongo

i feel as though i have to clarify. toes as in curltoes, not freaky deaky shi

[subtle dock]

i have no clue

[sudden egret]

which one?

[cedar hatch]

an old one, redrix

[sudden egret]

anything with kill clip

lets it 2 burst

[cedar hatch]

i have lone wolf/sword logic

[sudden egret]

sword logic got a nerf so it can't 2-burst anymore

[cedar hatch]

ah f

[subtle dock]

i just realized the description of the shaders you buy with bright dust swap between equip and apply as the starting word

[cedar hatch]

creamy

[sudden egret]

you can farm a martlet from trials, it's the energy redrix

[cedar hatch]

ehhhhhh im not tryna contract something

[sudden egret]

you don't have to win trials anymore to get good loot

even on losses you'll get t5 gear if you are 450+

[cedar hatch]

looks like i gotta grind some then

[cedar hatch]

is 450 the cap or am i good at 445?

[sudden egret]

550 is cap

[cedar hatch]

wait, its not trials week

[sudden egret]

it's actually 451

[cedar hatch]

and i meant for me to get t5s

[sudden egret]

you need

[sudden egret]

there is, it's only thursday

trials will be here tomorrow

[cedar hatch]

noted

[sudden egret]

plenty of time to break 450

[cedar hatch]

thankfully i dont work till saturday

a few raids might do me good

[grim totem]

what dlc should i do first after i finish renegades? i just want all the star wars stuff before i go into the main stuff

[cedar hatch]

witch queen is my favorite campaign

so theres my suggestion

[grim totem]

bet i finally got all the dlc so i’m hyped to play them

[sudden egret]

if you don't care about lore, final shape for prismatic has the most build diversity

[cedar hatch]

pris feels like if you had a dream about destiny 2

a really weird dream, that you fell asleep listening to a llamaD2 new subclass theory video

[sacred summit]

Why am I only getting C rank on a portal activity when the expected rank from modifiers is A?

[high lily]

if its solo ops, you need to complete the bonus objective

[sacred summit]

I've been trying, but it seems to be nearly impossible. Half my kills don't seem to count because of my build, like my ionic sentry not counting as an abililty kill, or needing 60 weapon kills but my smg is killing them with voltshot which i guess doesn't count. The fact that I can't tell what the bonus objective will be until after I launch it isn't helping either.

[boreal patio]

keep relaunching till theres not a shit bonus objective

[high lily]

faster than trying to complete a crap one yea

[smoky onyx]

when I launch in with praxic blade, rocket pulse and eager edge ability warlock

and the objective is "get 30 precision kills"

[tawdry sequoia]

Lmao factsssss

That's always the best one

[jaunty whale]

When people hate precision kill objectives in an fps

[daring quarry]

guys can you farm taken praxic blade crystal off of a checkpoint

[sudden egret]

No, clearing all encounters is needed to reset the farm

[kind python]

Hello, I’m trying to start playing again and I’m running into an issue where I can’t press two buttons at the same time. When I do, nothing happens. I am playing on PS5. Any help would be appreciated, as I really want to play the game

[high lily]

what are you doing that requires you to press 2 buttons at once?

[kind python]

Scope in and shoot (L1 / R1)

[sudden egret]

ads + shoot is quite common

[high lily]

L2 and R2 are the scope and shoot buttons

[kind python]

Common? You’re saying this is known and ongoing

[kind python]

I remapped my buttons

[sudden egret]

no, that it's common to do both those actions

i'm on pc, i can't help much here

[kind python]

Any time I’m in a high octane situation, I just sit there

It’s game breaking and I don’t recall it being this way. I change the full auto options to on and it’s still happening

[high lily]

theyre probably overlapping with your super button (which by default is L1+R1)

assuming you changed each bind separately

[kind python]

Let me check. I’ve had these settings since the game came out

[kind python]

Whoaaaaa mate why is my super mapped to l1r1

I NEVER had it like this wow

I just changed it. Let’s see

Maybe one of the updates reset some settings

It worked. Thank you. @high lily

Another very minor issue now— my jump button has always been mapped to Square, but interacting is also Square

Damn it

Nevermind. Just changed that too

WOW I’m all set

Thank you

[turbid sorrel]

U have issues

[jaunty mason]

okay so the light and dark saga dungeon key pack was only 1500 silver for me but it’s 4500 for my fiancée? i don’t understand why the price difference

[turbid sorrel]

Who on earth has jump as square

Square is reserved for reload in any fps idc

[drifting plinth]

must have had 2 of them

[kind python]

I use my index finger in addition to my thumb. Not sure how well it serves me

[turbid sorrel]

Oh u use spider form

One of them ones

[kind python]

🤷‍♂️

Too much pvp man

Losing my hair

[brave canyon]

You just gotta get a roller with paddles

[cedar hatch]

claw in crucible???? its not that deep bro.

[brittle kraken]

Is there lfg for Destiny Rising here?

[high lily]

no

[true lintel]

How do you think I feel on account of me using mid weapons and dual primary?

Sometimes I do well, other times I'm little more than a speed bump for the enemy team

[sharp flicker]

then why do you do it?

[true lintel]

It was for a couple of reasons which were valid back then but may not apply the same way these days.

To start, I simply don't like managing ammo economy in PvP. Furthermore, I used to run dual primary with the express purpose of denying the opposing team any special ammo at all since I didn't (and still don't) trust myself to stay alive long enough to make it worth using.

Those reasons haven't really changed, but another part of it now is just that I find it much more fun to build around.

I have two weapons I can reliably switch to no matter what ammo looks like. So long as the mags are loaded, who cares about bricks dropping?

[unborn cloak]

You don't drop special ammo when you die

If anything by running double primary you die more often and give them more progress on their special ammo bars

[true lintel]

My loadouts always follow the same formula:

First slot controls ranged fights. I almost never use anything outside of ARs and pulse rifles. My secondary is almost always a sidearm but I also like SMGs sometimes too

[true lintel]

It's a carry over from when you used to drop ammo. I never quite grew out of it lol

To be fair, special or not, I get cooked all the same. At least dual primary is more familiar to me so my chances may actually be higher in a weird way

I suppose I could learn to use specials in pvp but I find doing well with just primaries while barely even using my super to be quite satisfying!

Of course that makes the mode even more difficult but oh well. Hopefully my mystical T5 Monody-44 will drop from crucible

Or... from literally anywhere

[weak oriole]

try a glaive

they are very fun

[signal knoll]

Any way to help with disconnections? All my wifi and connectivity is running smoothly but I just got the mf weasel error code when I joined a team to raid

[unborn cloak]

What's your nat type?

Additionally, wired connections are always more stable.

[wispy estuary]

Is Starfire Protocol still good?

[high lily]

the buff it got in Edge of Fate, and the grenade stat buffing nade damage made it not entirely suck anymore

[wispy estuary]

Nice

Should I use it?

[high lily]

id recommend Boots of the Assembler over it, but its fine if youre solo ig

[brave canyon]

Honestly solar warlock in a non RAD setting (when you’re using it for well) just gets shit on by getaways. I really haven’t been a fan of anything on it (sunbracers, starfire, etc.).

[oblique tree]

How difficult is it to do equilibrium? As well as doing the puzzles and collectibles at the same time, i want to do one big clear to minimize how many times i have to do it

[high lily]

one of the easiest dungeons

[oblique tree]

Really? Even on contest?

Is there anything i need to prepare before doing the dungeon

[brave canyon]

No it was the hardest dungeon on contest

[brave canyon]

Just have good build ready to go. First encounter is ad clear. Second encounter is double rocket pulse and parasite for DPS. Third encounter is double rocket pulse and finality’s auger.

[oblique tree]

Not sure i have finality

[brave canyon]

You should snag that from sundered since it’s farmable

Just to have

[brave canyon]

What class are you playing it on?

[oblique tree]

Hunter

[brave canyon]

Oh bet you can use Wolfsbane then

With fortunes favor

[oblique tree]

Not praxic???

[brave canyon]

No Wolfsbane is way better

[oblique tree]

Thought u need it for the puzzles

[brave canyon]

I mean you do but im talking for DPS

[oblique tree]

Ahhh

[brave canyon]

Pris Hunter with tether Wolfsbane and fortunes favor is a strong build for hunters in EQ

It lowkey carried on contest too

Rather than having someone tractor

[oblique tree]

Damn...im returning since Eof so i don't have rocket pulse or wolfsbane xd, Im only missing a few things

[brave canyon]

Just for reference

SD Contest: ~80k clears (2 weekends)
VH: Contest: ~40k clears
EQ Contest: ~9k clears

[oblique tree]

Holy shit

[brave canyon]

EQ had a pretty solid DPS check

[oblique tree]

3rd encounter looks annoying to deal with...man when you compare these to something like grasp its insane 😂

[brave canyon]

EQ is relatively easy compared to VH

Honestly they’re all pretty easy not on contest and not SF

[turbid sorrel]

basically the whole game

destiny isnt difficult

[high lily]

lucky pants uncivil for final

[high lily]

vesper also had the revive bug

leaving and rejoining the instance would give your token back

[brave canyon]

Ya that probably inflated numbers a decent bit

I find it funny still under 30k people have done SF for vespers

[smoky onyx]

Is the Twofold armor set currently obtainable?

[brave canyon]

I don’t believe so but I don’t really play trials so

None of the other pre Renegades armor sets are currently obtainable

[turbid sorrel]

u can after reaching lighthouse

rng tho

includes the eof weapons too

[smoky onyx]

only AFTER going whole ass flawless??

[turbid sorrel]

from memory

just need to reach lighthouse

dont need 7 wins flawless

[smoky onyx]

Im sorry I havent been in touch with pvp/trials stuff in a loooong time, isn't the Lighthouse only available to access after going flawless?

[turbid sorrel]

it was changed a while ago

u can now access it at just 7 wins

the higher your win streak no losses, the greater your rewards

[smoky onyx]

ohhh

Thanks for the info!

[turbid sorrel]

in short tho, always aim for 5 + win streak

[smoky onyx]

Ill get my ass done in trying to get it this weekend

[turbid sorrel]

5 is where u start getting noteable loot

[fiery shoal]

so im just redownloading d2 i quit right before renegades dropped what should i be doing before i swipe the card on expansions to test if i like the state of the game or not

[brave canyon]

What expansions do you already have

[fiery shoal]

all of them except the latest 2

[brave canyon]

Really the only relevant content you’ll be able to play is the portal

[fiery shoal]

i had a lotta pinnacle shit but i hear they changed the leveling system

[brave canyon]

For now

[glass berry]

Question , how i get facet of Dominance? I cant see Aerial Ace cyst on my map
any way i can get the Memory Vetsige: Light and locations?
all youtube videos show different things
that i cant see on map
and yes i did pre-requisit quest for it (Alone in the dark)

[brave canyon]

Well you’re gonna be reset down to 10 but if you played during EoF nothing has changed in regard to that

[fiery shoal]

is that just the vanguard op stuff back before they changed portal

[fiery shoal]

no i stopped right before eof dropped

i got them mixed up

[brave canyon]

Oh okay

[fiery shoal]

so for leveling and stuff i need eof and renegades yeah?

[brave canyon]

Ya I guess the big takeaways are you’re now back to level 10. Only way to level up is doing portal which is vanguard ops crucible strikes arena (6 player) activities etc.

You don’t need it but it would probably be a more enjoyable way to get to like 300 power

Max power is 550

All your old weapons I’d hang onto god rolls old armor you can replace as you obtain new armor

There’s now gear tiers which are 1-5 you’ll unlock higher tiers as you level up.

T1 being the lowest T5 the highest

There’s new stats that run 1-200. They’re very self explanatory and the 101-200 provide some good bonuses. You can hover over the stats to see what they all do.

[fiery shoal]

do nightfalls still work for leveling even if its just the ones from older expansions or do i straight up need the newer ones to progress

[brave canyon]

If you want to gain power you have to play portal

You can’t go anywhere in the old director

[fiery shoal]

oh okay are pinnacles not a thing anymore then?

[brave canyon]

If you find the strikes in the vanguard ops tab that you want to do that will level you but you can’t go to the old vanguard screen

[brave canyon]

There’s pinnacle ops

But not pinnacles like the old leveling system

[fiery shoal]

hm okay so basically just do portal and infuse new guns that i get with my old god roles or exotics?

and then just use the new armor i get

[hidden zinc]

What does masterworking armor do other than increase the 3 lowest stats by 5

[brave canyon]

You’ll want to use new guns too but you don’t have to delete old guns because there’s only so many new guns that they don’t account for everything yet

[brave canyon]

That’s all it does

[hidden zinc]

3 ascendant shards just fur that us crazy man theyre robbing me

[fiery shoal]

what are the good ones so i can keep track and just infuse the rest

[brave canyon]

Look up an aegis spreadsheet

[fiery shoal]

kk gotcha

ty

also i heard eof was ass should i just skip that and get renegades if im gonna get an expansion?

[twin peak]

for the exotics and grav spike?

[brave canyon]

But basically your guns aren’t completely useless because say for example you had a lotus eater with destab/repulser and for whatever reason that’s BIS for what you’re trying to do. There’s no void rocket sidearm in the tiered lot yet so if you delete all your old shit and something old would be good for whatever circumstance you don’t want to get rid of all you non tiered weapons.

@fiery shoal ^

But armor id only keep exotics with decent stat spikes (like weapons and super) because all the new armor will be 75 stat points at T5 with a +5 “artifice” like slot on it and the old armor from pre EoF is like T2.5 (63-68 stat points)

[high lily]

whatever good weapons there were before the tiered system released, theyre still good

[wispy estuary]

RAD?

Raid and Dungeon

Seems we have a new wave of players because this is like the 100th time I’ve had to clarify that this week

[wispy estuary]

I'm not new. Just Old and slow

[brave canyon]

I’m 26 but mentally 84

I feel that

[wispy estuary]

Same here lmao

[pearl ferry]

Is there any way to play trials without doing the trials access quest? Can't find any match on competitive (just want the martlet)

[high lily]

nope.
and if you want the Fartlet for pve, High Tyrant from the Equilibrium dungeon is far better

Martlet is a pvp gun

[dusty grove]

Does anyone know what the best Solar, Stasis, or Void bows are?

[high lily]

Verglas, Ticuus and maybe Fortunate Star from Solstice?

[dusty grove]

Ticuu's is considered the best solar bow? By what metric?/genq

I tried Ticuu's and Verglas and just did not like them

Well no

I like Ticuu's for pvp

Verglas feels very unresponsive and the stasis barrage feels less than useful most of the time

[upper matrix]

There are also stasis, void, and arc heavy crossbow as options

[dusty grove]

Ye I'm just more partial to combat bows
Feel better to use

I like A Good Shout tho

[turbid talon]

Ramping damage stacks and effective AoE clearing

Realistically Ticuu's is a PvE bow more than PvP, so it's a bit odd that the Catalyst needed PvP

[upper matrix]

I haven't used bows in a while but from what I played, I liked:
Last Wish solar bow or the vanguard solar bow.
Stasis, I do like Verglas but since you don't, other okay one was from season of the wish (I think)
And void, it's Leviathan breath or le monarch. Legendary option, both Heresy/solstice bows.
Sorry for not naming the bows, I'm not good with remembering gun names, too many. 😅

[dusty grove]

Yeah I like and am actively using Le Monarque

[little pewter]

Any reason you ask, if i may ask? Just curiosity, or are you looking for something particular

[upper matrix]

Bungie needs to make better legendary stasis and void bows.

[dusty grove]

I mean it's fine in PvP
I have 100 kills with it

[dusty grove]

I like to theme my characters to their subclass, so my Nightstalker Hunter uses Void/Stasis
Right now I'm using Le Monarque/Third Iteration, but the bows I like insofar have all been Exotic, so they're a little hard limiting on buildcrafting. I wanna know my options so I can work around yk?

[upper matrix]

Forgot to mention Hierarchy of Needs. My favorite bow, just wish I have more places to use it.

[dusty grove]

Hierarchy of Needs and Anamnesis are on my radar rn

[turbid talon]

Hierarchy is realistically a worse Ticuu's, honestly.

[dusty grove]

But Anamnesis is only attainable through Xūr rn if the information I've gathered is correct

[little pewter]

ah, less of a viability thing and more of an aesthetic thing?

[dusty grove]

Exactly
I use bows irl and they are one of my longest lasting fixations so I like to use them in games too

And I'm the kind of guy who likes my calling card to be thematic
So if I'm using my Solar warlock, I like to run a solar bow

[turbid talon]

As far as Solar Exotics go, I really would say Ticuu's is the choice. The ramping damage for meatier targets and effective AoE ad clear on the explosions helps it out a lot, and unlike Hierarchy, it doesn't encourage you to stay in one place for essentially the same effect.

[dusty grove]

I guess I need to finish acquiring Ticuu's Catalyst before I make final judgement

[turbid talon]

That's where the ramping damage stacks come in, yeah.

[dusty grove]

Back to Ticuu's Crucible for me lmao

I don't have an arc character but I have Trinity Ghoul for if I ever make one

Skyburner's Oath, Still Hunt, and Tommy's Matchbook are also on my Warlock, though I'm not sure how much I like Tommy's Matchbook

[upper matrix]

Buried bloodline also counts as "bow". It interacts with Hierarchy's ring.

[dusty grove]

The.. void sidearm?

It counts as a bow?

[upper matrix]

Ya

Idk if it works with Quiver.

[dusty grove]

Well
As interesting as that is, I'm running bows for the theme, not the "technically"
I don't think it would feel the same using a sidearm because the game thinks it's a bow LMAO

[high lily]

exotic so they just deal more damage, ticuus is also just good add clear, same for Verglas and it works well with stasis fragments

[dusty grove]

That's a good point actually

[upper matrix]

Works well with shatter dive, instant frost armor

[dusty grove]

Now which class to Stasis with..

It's gotta be Hunter or Warlock, I don't think a Titan playstyle takes well to a bow lmao

There's no Exotic strand bow?

[jaunty whale]

Wishkeeper

[dusty grove]

I can't see it in the Exotic collection. Is it any good?

[jaunty whale]

Its, eh.

Drops from starcrossed exotic mission if you wanna try it

Exotic strand bow themed around setting suspension traps

[jaunty whale]

Void hunter specifically has a super that boosts bows

[dusty grove]

I'm using that one!

Moebius Quiver

[high lily]

warlock, easily

[true lintel]

Ticuu's is the only bow I actually like. And that's huge because bows are auto dismantle for me otherwise. It's THAT fun

[dusty grove]

Are you sure the catalyst needs pvp? Mine just says "defeat targets" not "Defeat guardians"

[jaunty whale]

The 2nd part of the catalyst quest needs guardian kills iirc

[true lintel]

I don't think it did tbh

I have no memory of ever using it in crucible because... why would you?

[dusty grove]

I will have you know I am using it in Crucible to great success lmfao

[jaunty whale]

There definitely is a guardian kills quest

50 guardian kills iirc

Dunno if bungie removed that

[true lintel]

Kudos to you man but damn, couldn't be me

If I'm not using an AR or pulse I feel borderline useless in pvp

[jaunty whale]

I found more success using it as a normal bow in crucible. People know to run away as soon as they get tagged by the hipfire arrows

[dusty grove]

I routinely topscore using Le Monarque

[true lintel]

The poison bow?

[dusty grove]

Yuh

[jaunty whale]

Le monarque has a good track record in pvp

[true lintel]

BIG YIKES

[jaunty whale]

Got nerfed a couple of times too iirc

[true lintel]

I hate getting tagged by anything poison lol

[dusty grove]

Le Monarque's kill criteria is beautiful

One headshot and a body shot kills to poison, two headshots kills outright

If you miss your headshot you're fucked LMAO

[jaunty whale]

2 crits kill on any precision bow

[dusty grove]

Yuh

[jaunty whale]

Most good bow players use blinting strats

[dusty grove]

Blinting?

[true lintel]

Tf

[jaunty whale]

Land a bow crit then swap to a weapon that deals high burst damage (think handcannons, special grenade launchers) and finish the job

[dusty grove]

That's coward behaviour

I use bows and I kill people properly

Two headshots or bust

[true lintel]

I prefer my primary to actually be able to clean up its own mess tbh

[dusty grove]

Or
Whatever this was

[jaunty whale]

Up to you. One thing i learned is being honorable does not get you anything in the crucible

[little pewter]

what matters is you have fun, and if sacrificing playing good is what that takes, then thats what you should do.

[jaunty whale]

Thats a fair point

[true lintel]

I don't even know why I play crucible lol

I'm just here for the loot tbh

I try to make it fun in the meantime but Shaxx has stuff I want, so I do it

[dusty grove]

I do

[true lintel]

[dusty grove]

Me bottomscoring with Ticuu's but idc bc I killed four people with one explosion and that's my dopamine hit for the day

[true lintel]

Shaxx's reactions to stuff like that never gets old 💀

[dusty grove]

I miss the Iron Banner man
Saladin's voice was like butter

[true lintel]

He's cool but Shaxx owns the Crucible. Without him it just wouldn't feel right

[dusty grove]

That's fair

I'm not a long-time D2 fan, I'm only recently actually getting into it

I first started seriously playing when Final Shape was like actively coming out, but I never finished the campaign

[true lintel]

"Double down!" "Three opponents down!" "Your enemy can't kill if they're DEAD! Haha!"

[true lintel]

Fair. I've been playing since D1 when you could still buy The Taken King in plastic shrinkwrap.

I didn't actually start D2 until it went F2P though.

[past minnow]

same lol

[upper matrix]

I've seen a player who shows their pvp kills on Hierarchy of Needs. They have over 1000 pvp kills. It might be 10,000, but I can't remember how many zeros

[true lintel]

Me when I look at my Fighting Lion kill tracker:

[main pulsar]

My highest kill weapon by far I think is like

Elsie's and chaperone and igneous hammer

Actually across all the igneous hammers I have I should have like 20K+ on it I think

[true lintel]

Mine is Fighting Lion (~16,000, PvE). The next is Ragnhild with 2300. My current loadout shows the others but they're fairly high

[main pulsar]

I'll count up all the kills I have on my most used

I'm actually curious

[true lintel]

My pvp kill trackers are all low. Anything past 50 is considered high for me lol

[main pulsar]

Ok so

[main pulsar]

I have much more than I thought 💀

[true lintel]

How many?

[main pulsar]

I had to pull a calculator out

Across all my Iggy's alone I have around 25K

I'm still looking at other weapons

Gonna add up my roses

[tawdry sequoia]

Woah is this middle school?

Didnt know I was back in school

[main pulsar]

On rose I have around 20,325+

[main pulsar]

😭

[tawdry sequoia]

Hm nice

[tawdry sequoia]

Is there a way to graduate quickly?

[main pulsar]

Elsie's 15K

[tawdry sequoia]

To college?

[main pulsar]

Uhh

Take extra courses

[tawdry sequoia]

Boring

[main pulsar]

Only way I can think of

[tawdry sequoia]

So ur saying doing more work equals graduatimg early?

Ew

I'mma quit and get outta middle school

This has gotten out of hand lmao im so sorry

[main pulsar]

?

Bro?

[tawdry sequoia]

Lmao I'm just pulling ur chain

[main pulsar]

Ik lol

So Elsie's is about 15K+
Chaperone is 15,578+
Rose is 20,325+
Iggy is 25K+

[tawdry sequoia]

Woah

Are u mentally ok

Did someone hurt u?

25k on a one body sniper is kinda worrying

[main pulsar]

Sniper lmao

[tawdry sequoia]

?

[main pulsar]

Chaperone is and isn't a sniper

[tawdry sequoia]

Iggy?

Igneous hammer

I'm stupid asf

Nvm

I thought u said izzy

Those ggs looked like zzs to me for some reason

[dusty grove]

My highest kill weapon is Le Monarque at like 224

[main pulsar]

Handcannon

😭

[tawdry sequoia]

I know 😂

I thought I saw two zz

[main pulsar]

Missing a few i think

[tawdry sequoia]

Uh

Why so many chappys?

[main pulsar]

Never transfer them

[tawdry sequoia]

It's just one gun

😭

[main pulsar]

Yea and plus this across a few of my accounts

[tawdry sequoia]

Oh phew

[main pulsar]

So never caring to transfer + this

[tawdry sequoia]

It's a few buttons to transfer 😭

It's not like writing a 1k word essay on how to fix destiny 2

[main pulsar]

To lazy 😭

I'd swap to warlock and forget to put chappy in the vault

[tawdry sequoia]

Honestly

I feel that

[main pulsar]

And then I'd go to the kiosk

Collections*

[tawdry sequoia]

Kiosk?

Oh phew I was like huh

[main pulsar]

One of my fave weapons man

[tawdry sequoia]

I like saw this guy doing an LFG asking how to live 😭

I was like idk man

[main pulsar]

Bro what💀

[tawdry sequoia]

I'm not even joking

On Xbox LFG I saw this man put a post up saying and I quote "can anyone tell me how to live this life and how to walk"?

For destiny 2

I was like huh 🤔

[jaunty whale]

That might be a cry for help

[main pulsar]

He's trolling

[tawdry sequoia]

It was xD

[jaunty whale]

Or that maybe

Lol

[tawdry sequoia]

Dawg in the big 26 it's a troll move hate to tell ya

[jaunty whale]

Yeah i still have naivety thinking most people have good intentions dw i know

[main pulsar]

Some do

[jaunty whale]

Yeah, but not enough to make the default assumption being good intentions

[main pulsar]

Ofc

[rocky elbow]

Chat, I have a pattern earned for succession, should I build it?

[sweet badge]

what happened to the game i love?

[drifting plinth]

probably reconstruction+recombination

[high lily]

that ^^^ or vorpal instead of recomb

[covert herald]

Please keep this channel clear for genuine questions

[rocky elbow]

👍

[drifting plinth]

and if you do want to talk about the state of the game, #✨destiny-discussion

[true lintel]

https://dim.gg/a2ezeeq/Equipped

Any recommendations for optimizing my mods?

[main pulsar]

What happened ?

[main pulsar]

Nor showing

[drifting plinth]

never use kickstart mods

handheld supernova does not benefit from fastball

[sweet badge]

nothing happened. that's the reason

[drifting plinth]

melee dmg resist also sucks

dont use triple primary please

dilation and leeching fragments both suck

like turbo bad

[true lintel]

Triple primary?

[drifting plinth]

primary auto+primary gl+lmg

triple addclear weps

[true lintel]

I don't always charge the grenade when I throw it

[drifting plinth]

would be technically more accurate

[drifting plinth]

you should, magnet nade does basically no dmg compared to hhsn

even then, in pve fastball aint helpful cause no reason to throw nade from super far

[true lintel]

I don't have enough energy for anything else in that slot. Besides, it's less about the distance and more about how fast the grenade goes when thrown right?

What else should I put there? Because sometimes I actually do need to yeet a nade from a decent distance

[drifting plinth]

i like to use triple firepower on contra grenadelock

for 1sec orb cooldown

yes i run +5 nade on arms

[true lintel]

That's sick

Hold on, lemme put on two firepowers

[drifting plinth]

either run 1 or 3

never 2

[true lintel]

I don't have enough energy

[drifting plinth]

cause it goes 10/5/1

[drifting plinth]

if you want triple firepower you need to run +5 stat mod

for 1 energy cost

i get 200 nade anyways

so i do that

[true lintel]

I see, yeah lemme try that

[drifting plinth]

only run it if you can naturally get MINIMUM 190 nade anyways

[true lintel]

I'm at 184

[drifting plinth]

can run if you really like 1sec orb cd

[true lintel]

Bet. I'll need another piece of Grenadier gear most likely

[drifting plinth]

id also recommend running a long range special

[drifting plinth]

yeah

its 5x grenadier

with min 1 nade tuning if no undermining

need 3 nade tunings if undermining

iirc

[true lintel]

Understood, thank you!

[drifting plinth]

i would recommend getting a long(ish) range special

ie a rocket pulse or a sniper

thats what i did when i played hssn voidlock(dont anymore cause not too much point with no chunk)

[true lintel]

I have a really long range sniper. Can I use a fusion? I got a sick Riptide I want an excuse to use

[drifting plinth]

could use that riptide

if roll doesnt suck

[true lintel]

I have it equipped, what do you think?

[drifting plinth]

need a new link

it doesnt update

[true lintel]

Oh

https://dim.gg/bltvo6i/Equipped

[drifting plinth]

which i consider to be a good thing btw

cant see the roll lol

the one thing dim sucks at

is seeing rolls on stuff

[true lintel]

[ripe bay]

A buddy and I hopped back on d2 haven't played since shadowkeep we missed the big dlc sale what would be the best decision for? We plan on continuing to play

[true lintel]

It has Cornered and Controlled Burst with Liquid Coils and Handling

[drifting plinth]

play the free stuff(theres a decent amount of it)

and wait until next sale

gonna be within a month prolly

[ripe bay]

Cool thank you!

[true lintel]

I wish it had a Range masterwork but I'm okay with it

[drifting plinth]

range masterwork sucks in pve anyways

fusions are not really long range guns

[true lintel]

Doesn't stop me from using them that way anyway lol

My Monody-44 has ridiculous range at 82 and it's fun blasting stuff from super far away with it

Now it's at 92

[hidden zinc]

Guys shall I buy lumina from shrine? I have most other exotics from there already n someone told me it synergises well with boots of assembler build

Or not really worth ut

It

Also shall I buy hunter, titan or warlock class item from xur

[heady rapids]

Hey guys, how do you effectively farm trials these days? I haven’t played in like a year

[glad crag]

Lighthouse isn’t the goal anymore. Weapons and armor drop from matches. Flawless is no longer required to access Lighthouse, only 7 wins. However, the highest win streak you get before reaching that seven wins affects the gear you can get at lighthouse.

[drifting plinth]

note, lighthouse needs minimum of 3 winstreak iirc

[glad crag]

Nope. I’ve gotten there with a 2 win streak

[heady rapids]

Which passage should I grab

I just wanna farm the martlet as fast as possible

[glad crag]

To better put it into perspective, you need a flawless card to guarantee tier 5 loot at lighthouse chest. Whereas tier 5 loot can drop from matches, both losses and wins

I forgot the names of the passages, but don’t go for the lighthouse one

[heady rapids]

Are you sure? I asked my friend and he said get the lighthouse one, the other card has sbmm

[true lintel]

https://dim.gg/lv4d3jy/Equipped

Am I cooking yet? I just tested this loadout and it's very fun

[drifting plinth]

lighthouse will match you against sweats even if you suck

burst glide is generally considered better

also, like no one uses emp rift

[thorn quail]

Hey wasup everyone names is smokezzz im looking for a group to join i just joined the d2 server

[heady rapids]

So I should just use the trials one if I care about farming the gun

[drifting plinth]

yes

[heady rapids]

Alright

[drifting plinth]

550 power does give you loot for existing though

[heady rapids]

I’m like 460

I can get tier 5s still right ⁉️

I’m bouta crashout if I see tier 4s

[drifting plinth]

yeah

should get mostly t5s unless you do like really bad

like youd have to get 5-0ed basically

[heady rapids]

Oh yea it’s showing b+ drops tier 5s

[main pulsar]

Just by playing with a high streak

[main pulsar]

Yes

Just won the games and you will get tier 5s

[grim totem]

is this decent for renegades? it’s all or nothing i’m running the exotic strand machine gun too

[tawdry sequoia]

Is uh the community emblems going to be given to everyone?

[twin peak]

SoL will be enough

ur making threadlings from that anyways

[twin peak]

contra sure

fighting lion doesn’t need instability

[true lintel]

What do you mean?

[twin peak]

what is this build for

pve right?

[true lintel]

Ye

And because I'm a fiend for void explosions

[twin peak]

you can get that with manacles

but contra is fine

try using telesto instead

[true lintel]

The almighty Telesto

[twin peak]

with a better lmg maybe

[true lintel]

How do I get it?

[drifting plinth]

telesto or lmg?

[twin peak]

and without leeching or dilation

[drifting plinth]

telesto is monument to lost lights iirc

good void lmgs are corrective measure from vault of glass raid and commemoration from deep stone crypt raid

[true lintel]

I love the Commemoration, just never got a good roll for it

I want one with Destab

[true lintel]

Both

I've always heard funny things about Telesto but never used it myself

[twin peak]

the finisher mod has to go as well

[grim totem]

yea i just wanna go full on threadlings if that makes sense

[drifting plinth]

doesnt get it

[twin peak]

devour and contra do that job

[twin peak]

pris swarmers or strand assemblers

[grim totem]

bet ty

[twin peak]

luzaku could help with either

[true lintel]

No way

[true lintel]

Okay but void explosions at long range

[twin peak]

?

[frosty glacier]

what ways do you maximise ur grapple melees ability regen?

[twin peak]

concerning what subclass

[true lintel]

RIP

[frosty glacier]

prismatic and any weapons included

[twin peak]

hoil and navigator

[frosty glacier]

wait

realised how stupid that sounded

what is hoil

[twin peak]

in context to prismatic, spirit of inmost light

[frosty glacier]

empowers means improved regen?

also navigator = the gun right

[twin peak]

yep and yep

[frosty glacier]

does it stack or have a priority?

[drifting plinth]

stacks

[frosty glacier]

i saw a vid of a dudes grapple melee build, it seems he regens his abilities ridiculously fast but i dont regen the same speed and im wondering what hes doing

[obsidian berry]

What's the most convenient way to gear towards all 3 champions (for stuff like fireteam portal activities at 400+ light)? Hunter if it matters

[drifting plinth]

just dont look at the buff itll just confuse you

[twin peak]

depends on ur build

facet of dawn handles barriers

[main pulsar]

Nah you'd want something other than hatchling

[obsidian berry]

I don't really have a build, I'm in the getting-to-soft-cap phase still

[frosty glacier]

empowered abilities u mean? the one that stacks twice right

[obsidian berry]

Only 423 rn

I guess I can do like Le Monarque + Facet of Dawn and that at least stuns all 3 with Unstoppable Bow

I know there's other intrinsic anti champ exotics that probably make Le Monarque a not-as-good option but idk what all the intrinsic anti champ exotics are

[true lintel]

I usually run a weapon that has disruption built in, then the other two weapons are whatever the seasonal mods are

-# Btw, I really don't like this season's mods. They're all weapon types I either barely use or dislike using

[frosty glacier]

what 3 weapons should i run on a 1 loadout grapple melee build

[twin peak]

that’s only 2

[obsidian berry]

Le Monarque has intrinsic Overload

[twin peak]

lemon cant be unstop and overload at the same time

[obsidian berry]

Much to my recent surprise

Oh

Well

There goes that idea

[drifting plinth]

navi+ikelos+eager sword

or mint+ikelos+eager sword if not raid boss dps

[twin peak]

what content would have all champs anyways?

[obsidian berry]

Portal fireteam activities

[frosty glacier]

and in the case of gms? mint? also how do i even get ikelos.. and mint for that matter

[obsidian berry]

There's probably better ways to grind light but it's the dumbest way to

[drifting plinth]

one of the legends tab exotic missions

can just get a diff 12punch shotty

[twin peak]

ur team will handle it then

[frosty glacier]

which?

[obsidian berry]

I thought that too until my first strike 😭

[drifting plinth]

for neutral game can go top slot 12p shotty+psi

[frosty glacier]

neutral game as in solo gms and things like this right? also can u name a 12p shotty coz i have no idea, dont even know one shotgun at the top of my head apart from slayers fang

also why not bastion? @drifting plinth and does grapple melee give combination blow stacks

[tawdry sequoia]

No

Grapple melee is under the state grenade

[twin peak]

bastion is for void

[tawdry sequoia]

It's tied to ur grenade that why people used verity when it was broken on hunter

[twin peak]

[tawdry sequoia]

Broken to the point where people soloed atheon

In under 4 minutes xD

And duoed in 2 minutes

[frosty glacier]

not sure who that is

but i should still use combination blow right and farm stacks by just killing ads

[tawdry sequoia]

Vog final boss

Like a raid final boss

[tawdry sequoia]

With melee yes

Tempest strike and pris melee only works

[frosty glacier]

yeah just using regular C move not grapple melee

[tawdry sequoia]

Tempest strike can get a guarantee 3x stack if u kill three ads with tempest strike

And can kill a subjugator with 3x

[frosty glacier]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_pq0BiiU8A&t=859s how is he charging combination blow stacks when he isnt using the normal punch at all tho

look at 14 mins

[tawdry sequoia]

Lol

He isn't charging it

It's been charged

He's just refreshing it with grapple

Grapple doesn't give it recharges

U need to be on 3x

To do whatever he's doing

So melee melee melee and then grapple =recharge

[frosty glacier]

so i use 3 melees to get 3 stacks, then from there if i kill any ads whilst i have the buff, grapple melee can recharge it?

[tawdry sequoia]

Mhm

Thats what he's doing

[frosty glacier]

ah ok thats better

is his weapon selection more optimal than the ones bolt recommended for neutral gameplay

[tawdry sequoia]

Yep

Uh for pure melee uptime bastion is basically cheese for the melee builds on hunter

And apex for heal

So I'd say yea

[frosty glacier]

how so?

also is apex unobtainable

[tawdry sequoia]

Uh

[tawdry sequoia]

Look at the Main trait

[frosty glacier]

i was wondering how thats different to ikelos shotgun with the right perks

[tawdry sequoia]

Getting kills with reg melee = more bastion DMG all pellets with bastion hits = more melee dmg

While ikelos does less dmg

[shadow venture]

It’s 150% on Ikelos
300% on Saint’s

[tawdry sequoia]

Yup

Saints fist is free DMG

Is u want a more ad clearing melee build on hunter I have one

With bastion

It literally requires like 2 to 3 buttons

That's it and u get a lot of super regen

Easy

[frosty glacier]

depends if it does the same damage

also look at that dudes ability regen

its insanely fast

and do i need combination blow ready in order to refresh the stacks if i want to refresh through grapple melee?

[tawdry sequoia]

Yep

[tawdry sequoia]

It can get super like insanely fast

DMG I can test it for DMG if u want me to

[twin peak]

google ai?

[drifting plinth]

yes

it inaccurate as fuck oftentime

[tawdry sequoia]

Lmao yea

[fathom marten]

Just use compendium

[verbal yoke]

how do we finish rank 10 if there is only 2 gm conquests?

because shadow and order didnt release? lol

WOW wow wow

[frosty glacier]

yes please brotha

[small sentinel]

How do the witch queen exotic glaive patterns work? Am I able to get all 3 on 1 character? If not, which class offers the edge of concurrence?

[frosty glacier]

i just did 23k in one grapple melee to the seraphs shield boss so expectations are high, just dm me results @tawdry sequoia boutta go grind, also show me you refreshing combination blow through grapple melee because i still dont really get how to do it, ive been trying a lot

[fathom marten]

Hunter. You only need the one, and you only need to do the mission for it once because it automatically puts it at the Evidence Board for the other two classes.

Then you craft like normal

[small sentinel]

So I don’t have to complete any portion of that campaign as a hunter?

Excluding the prologue

[fathom marten]

I don’t believe so

If you already have one glaive unlocked and access to the board on Hunter, you should be able to swap easily and check

[small sentinel]

I’ve been playing hunter for a bit, makes it more convenient.

Thank you

[fathom marten]

If you do have one of the glaives already and it isn’t there, then you will probably have to do the campaign

Originally, you did have to complete it on all three but after they took away the class restrictions, you should only need to do it on one

[small sentinel]

I have done none of the board missions, or obtained one of those glaives, I did however unlock the bounty board through the warlock. Would I have to obtain at least one of those glaives to get any of the others enable to get those other glaives with other classes?

It’s all confusing

[fathom marten]

Yes. You need to have gotten at least one of the glaives for the other two to appear. The unfortunate issue is that the mission for it is bugged, and has been since before December, so you’ll need to learn to skate or I think maybe grapple around the left side to bypass the final door :/

[small sentinel]

[drifting plinth]

you can grapple

[fathom marten]

Pull out your government issued Navigator to make an easy grapple point and just swing around it

[small sentinel]

I sadly do not have the catalyst for that

[fathom marten]

Oh you do need the catalyst for that huh

[small sentinel]

Is that dungeon easy?

[fathom marten]

Should be possible without it though

[tawdry sequoia]

Hheheheh

Lmao funny question

[heady rapids]

Dude I haven’t got a martlet in like 10 fucking games what is going on

[small sentinel]

Im just asking, I breezed through prophecy, but that’s the only one I’ve done.

[heady rapids]

At the start of the sesh I was getting them every game, sometimes even 2 a game

[small sentinel]

Unless that one mission for wish ender was a dungeon, I can’t remember, have to craft an enigma for it to show me the friggin planet.

[little pewter]

wishender is indeed obtained from a dungeon

[fathom marten]

Shattered Throne is also a dungeon

And both Prophecy and Shattered Throne are considered the easiest dungeons

[small sentinel]

What are some other easy dungeons for some useful exotics? Every dlc excluding renegades and eof. In terms of raw power, and ease of obtainability. Which ones would you say stand out?

[brave canyon]

Really the only good dungeon exotic right now is finality’s auger

Navigator is great in grapple melee builds but that’s it

[small sentinel]

I forgot that you need a key for that one

[brave canyon]

You need a key for all the WQ-TFS dungeons I believe

[drifting plinth]

^

correct

[small sentinel]

That’s a hastle, you buy a dlc for like 60$ and you have to buy the key separate for like 20$ in silver.

[brave canyon]

I buy deluxe edition every year and it’s always included

I’ve only ever had to make one purchase a year on this game

[fathom marten]

That's also only for those dungeons. They stopped doing it after the backlash from implementing it in the first place, but there isn't anything they can do to remove that system :/

[brave canyon]

Budgeting $80-$100 a calendar year isn’t too much to ask lol

[small sentinel]

Fair enough. I’ll get it, just not now. What kind of build are people prioritizing? Like, class specifically?

[brave canyon]

Rn warlocks are like goated

Hunters do silly DPS with lucky pants

[small sentinel]

It always circles back to warlocks

[brave canyon]

Rn is a little bit of a weird time to recommend a build because in a few weeks we’re getting a major update and have no idea if they’re doing balancing or not

Normally it would be safe to assume they would be but with the state of the game and complete lack of communication so far on what’s coming in the June update idk if I’d bank on sandbox balancing until the next DLC

[small sentinel]

Lucky pants you say?

What guns

[brave canyon]

You do crimson then uncivil discourse with heavy sniper

[small sentinel]

Hand cannons, exotic and recommendations

[brave canyon]

You do 2 burst of crimson 14 uncivil shots then 6 with heavy sniper repeat

Uncivil is the special ammo Han Solo hand cannon from renegades

[brave canyon]

^

[small sentinel]

So I need renegades

[brave canyon]

Yes

For uncivil and heavy sniper

[small sentinel]

Damn, if I did, I don’t think I’d want to make a bullet cake every time I want to max out that damage. 😂

[brave canyon]

And those are non negotiable if you don’t have them you’re not gonna have a good build

[brave canyon]

Huh?

[small sentinel]

^

[brave canyon]

I don’t get it ?

[small sentinel]

Idk what to say

[brave canyon]

I have no clue what a bullet cake is

If you’re talking about the specific number of shoots that’s not a new thing like every damage rotation has an optimal number of shots with each weapon you need to keep track of

[small sentinel]

Yes 😂

[brave canyon]

If you’re doing parasite and rocket pulse you have to switch every 2

If you’re doing WO and rocket pulse you have to switch every 4 for a fully charged shot

[small sentinel]

I have never used parasite, is the mission/missions. to acquire it soloable?

[sudden egret]

Yes

[small sentinel]

Nice

[terse jacinth]

how do i farm for tier 5 shinies

[brave canyon]

Just RNG

[terse jacinth]

wb light level

[brave canyon]

The renegades shiny weapons you can do that weekly quest

[brave canyon]

You need to be 450 for T5 drops

[terse jacinth]

ah damn im like 420 rn

[brave canyon]

Always had to be 450 for T5 drops

[terse jacinth]

ive got a few tier 5 tho

[brave canyon]

There’s rare occurrences you can get them before but for most consistent drops you’ll need to be playing ultimate

[terse jacinth]

what shud i do to up my light fast

[glad crag]

Play the game

[tawdry sequoia]

Facts

[glad crag]

Seriously tho, playing portal activities with the green bonus drops is the best way

[tawdry sequoia]

Bet I will when I'm home

[tawdry sequoia]

😂

Nah just waste ur time in a single 6v6 match and see the results 😂 it's a stupid joke on power grinding

Like my cousin did like 10-15 control matches and he got to 550 from 300 within like 1-2 days

It's stupid

[true lintel]

That's cool but WHY won't the game drop me a T5 Monody-44

[tawdry sequoia]

Uh

Not the day for it?

[true lintel]

💀

Now I feel dumb

[tawdry sequoia]

Control comp and whatever the "new" mode is had a daily rotation
