[shadow sinew]

I was never a follower of anything. Only until The Ennead regarded me their appeal.

[clever pine]

the nine

[austere sage]

wait

so they're

they're not larping

they believe in "the nine", the fictional sci-fi deities (i say deities while they're not actually deities)

as

[austere shoal]

But no one is interested to hear religious preaching in a video game server tbh

[austere sage]

my mind is a set of intertwining cogwheels at the moment.

[clever pine]

guys i don't think it's all that serious

[austere sage]

im just genuinely confused
are they religious? are they pretending to be religious? is this bait?

a secret, evil fourth option?

[austere shoal]

Honestly. I don't know what is happening so my curiosity of this user has ran its course.

[austere sage]

given that they know very little about the basics video games, and they're only here to be upset at them, i doubt they'll stay long anyway.

[shadow sinew]

The Ennead are not ‘evil’, nor are they ‘good’. They can certainly be both. But that allows for the perspective within all things. The perspective The Ennead manipulates the conception thereof.

[austere shoal]

I think he may have been posting all day. Suprised he isn't tired yet.

[clever pine]

[shadow sinew]

No. I just posted three times yesterday. And three times today.

[austere shoal]

Props to dedication. I'll give him that.

[austere sage]

ok, 100% a practitioner of egyptian mythology, zero relations to video games, i think they walked into the server on accident, i should just block for the sake of... i dont know, avoiding confusion

someone who has no interest in video games outside of disliking them is not bound to stay in video game communities for long

[shadow sinew]

I am not a practitioner of egyptian mythology. That is of the highest truth.

[austere sage]

oh right the reason i went to this channel before this

[austere shoal]

Maybe they came across this place due to osiris and nine references?

[shadow sinew]

I do not dislike video games. Quite the opposite, since i’m here?

[austere sage]

actually, somewhat unrelated to the conversation at hand, it is kinda weird how osiris hasnt really been involved with the nine at all?

if he has it cant be anything significant, i havent seen anything of it

[austere shoal]

That is true. Maybe he simply doesn't care or has little knowledge of them. Maybe edge of fate may change that

[shadow sinew]

I understand your misconceptions completely. Afterall I just joined. But I was told directly by The Ennead that there is hope. Hope for salvation.

[wide lake]

Average day 1 of the server dialogue

[cursive plinth]

I’m crying bruh😭

[austere shoal]

Ahyway on a lighter topic, box breathing on a lightweight scout is sure as hell going to cause problems lmao

wtf is this channel been today

[alpine bronze]

:3

[noble zinc]

I’m sorry for that

a burning inner passion will do that

getting emotional about this stuff and then realising you’ve unleashed a wave of cataclysm and destruction throughout sucks

[bleak jetty]

I saw a friend doing the same thing a few days ago.

[light walrus]

how tf XD

[noble zinc]

I’m sorry for exposing my true colours and feelings about entropy and how this loveless world works

because let’s be real: the world sucks

[devout mason]

??????

[noble zinc]

what the heck is this

[light walrus]

Stop spamming this shit

[hardy pasture]

Let's move on gang

[noble zinc]

in all honesty tho I wish this was real

it actually looks pretty cool

[warm sorrel]

someone’s a bitter cookie

[hallow needle]

Do you want a buff

[warm sorrel]

I would love an inmost buff

give it half the bonus damage the base exotic has

[jade lance]

Spirit of Inmost Light needs to work with Ascension

That is all 😌

[viral saddle]

It has diminishing results

You can't just endlessly complete them for endless xp and materials

[bleak jetty]

Just picked up maltimach from Banshee and uh...

[jade whale]

Is it a good roll?

[bleak jetty]

Attrition/kinetic tremors.

The attrition orbs are whatever, but kinetic tremors kinda goes hard with it.

I think it was one of the curated rolls due to perk weighting.

[jade whale]

Ah I see

[full narwhal]

Finally got a good roll

On the Horizontal fusion

[zinc pewter]

You get how insanely overhyped it is?

[bleak jetty]

[light walrus]

The names I see on a daily basis at the tower and all around is funny af XD

[agile ravine]

[lunar blaze]

Jongo when it comes to any weapon roll ever:

[azure cliff]

[icy forum]

didn't bungie say there's no perk weighting

also curated roll?

[bleak jetty]

There was unintentional perk weighting, and as compensation, they gave Banshee some god rolls.

[icy forum]

ohhhh

yea I wasn't playing at the time

just know about it from youtube videos

[silk fjord]

when vesper's came out people were having a very hard time getting the god roll for chill inhibitor, which led to some people in the community accusing bungie of intentionally weighting drop chances against good perk combos, bungie denied that and then the community found perk combos were in fact weighted but with a specific pattern on every weapon in the game, hinting it was instead a bug

[icy forum]

yeah I've heard about it

[lunar blaze]

allegedly it had been around since lightfall which is crazy

but also not that crazy, since most weapons that mattered going for were craftable until revenant

I think attrition kinetic tremors on multimatch was the first to raise questions about it, but it wasn't popular enough

[mental plover]

Winning

[drifting plaza]

big W man that emblem is one of the best bungie made tbh

now if only you had Scallywag title to go with it

[mystic saddle]

majority of the SF emblems are nice

compared to day 1 raids

[zinc pewter]

(thats not the sf emblem)

[mystic saddle]

grasp?

[zinc pewter]

aint it the skull

[mystic saddle]

naur thats the base one

[icy forum]

first clear too

[light walrus]

i do believe this is grasp solo flaw emblem

either way W's

[icy forum]

it is.

[mystic saddle]

jongo havin a jongo moment

[frail locust]

The SF skull emblem is for ghosts of the deep

[viral saddle]

different skull

[zinc pewter]

i dont even think the gotd one is a skull

[drifting plaza]

Gotd one kinda sucks, looks like a blue alien head

[rigid raft]

Wavesplitter Catalyst (Concept):
Null Orbs:
Final blows on Void debuffed targets, or with a Void buff, generate an Orb of Power (4 second cooldown) and picking up Orbs of Power overflows (150) the magazine.

[icy forum]

thats spire

[drifting plaza]

the gotd one looks a bit like an alien blue skull as well

[mystic saddle]

yall gettin mixed up lol

gotd is clearly a blue alien skull

i still believe gotd emblems shouldve been switched

[icy forum]

oh spire of the watcher sf emblem is a skull too

[mystic saddle]

poo poo dungeon

[drifting plaza]

spire is like a goat skull or something? tex mechanica themed right

[ionic jetty]

Sort of. Spire's got a whole "frontiers" vibe with the old west shootout first encounter and Tex Mechanica weaponry.

[icy forum]

yea

[drifting plaza]

like seriously, these 2 should be switched

[mystic saddle]

i agree

base emblem is so much more suitable for a SF

[vale void]

R they sending em out already

If it had linear fusion in description - would be helpful

[jade lance]

I dunno what it’s like/what it says in your language but

Now you know

[narrow hollow]

It doesn't say anything about linears, in game description at least

But icon is probably linear one.
It's just not a thing you will think about.

anyways, what was it?

[zinc pewter]

seemed like an image youd like

reminded me of that ogre image

[zinc pewter]

yea

[agile ravine]

it gets worse every time

how is it possible

[zinc pewter]

can you do that to the witness too

[fluid hull]

like this?

[zinc pewter]

i meant with the goofy image you used on the ogre

but that works too ig

[fluid hull]

I didn't even make that one

is this better?

[zinc pewter]

[dusk crescent]

"you seek the place where we ||destroy||ed ourselves?..... COME"

[dusk crescent]

I created an non existent exotic for a non existent subclass

I should tweak it, it is overpowered

I need ideas on how the ("saturated") debuff would work

would it grant more orbs or ammo on kill?
would it prevent spceial attacks from being used?

[uneven plinth]

I could imagine this being a fundementals omolon fusion

kinda like a multiflavored jotunn

[dusk crescent]

that is one of the wackyest ways of saying use case, and I love it

[tiny dragon]

I did the same stuff xd

[dusk crescent]

show me

[tiny dragon]

I didn't have the drawings yet, but it is literally a heavily modified DP-28, the only thing this gun special on was.... The bullets carried pure Rage and burden

[dusk crescent]

That says that we are too creative for bungie

[tiny dragon]

The only part I have drawn of was the mag, anyway yes, that was a TOZ-34BM on his hand, also an exotic

[dusk crescent]

and this is why bungie will never hire you, because they are too focused on making their content mediocre

[tiny dragon]

Buh

[deep river]

Ohh. Yeah nah I prob couldn't buy it then TwT I don't have a card and either way I think it would be alot of money

[devout mason]

150 dollars

Its also not avalible anymore

[deep river]

Oof

TwT did it sell in stores or online

[steady fulcrum]

Online only

[devout mason]

Only on the bungie store

[deep river]

I would never be able to get that then sadly lol

[steady fulcrum]

Bungie store and well ebay for massively inflated price

[deep river]

I do not trust myself not to get scammed TwT

[steady fulcrum]

Understandable

[deep river]

[steady fulcrum]

Nice pfp btw

Cool ass movie

Yayayay

[devout mason]

@steady fulcrum hard to imagine the Shadowkeep CE was only 90 dollars

[steady fulcrum]

What even was in that one

[deep river]

TwT if Destiny 3 is ever a thing and I have a card I might go into debt

Theyre not gonna make Destiny 3

[deep river]

:33 oki

[steady fulcrum]

The next expansion is getting announced like tomorrow

[dusk crater]

What if i do a silly dance

[deep river]

ANOTHER?

[devout mason]

@steady fulcrum depending how I feel, I might get the CE

[devout mason]

Yes

[steady fulcrum]

And truth be told Bungie doesnt have the resources to make D3 not that it would be a good idea to begin with

[deep river]

TwT I'm gonna be so broke..

[devout mason]

Something Something drop old gen consoles

[steady fulcrum]

Your ass do be made out of money huh

[deep river]

Wait when was the final shape released?

[deep river]

Wait dyk how much the new expansion will be or nah

[devout mason]

Anywhere between 60-80

[deep river]

TwT Jesus

TwT destiny's add-ons are so expensive off sale

[steady fulcrum]

Thats such an odd date?

[devout mason]

I know

[steady fulcrum]

Over here you get your money at the end of the month generally the 28th or if you work at the Government you get it at the very start of the month

[vale void]

And marathon is

[steady fulcrum]

Uh yeah?

What

[vale void]

Marathon will infinity be a bigger risk for bungie than a d3 could ever be

[zinc pewter]

people hated the dcv, D3 would basically be the same thing

[steady fulcrum]

Thats not the point?

[zinc pewter]

with less content also

[steady fulcrum]

The point is that Bungie as of now doesnt even have the resources to make a Destiny 3 that wouldnt halt any other content updates for years

[vale void]

Yea as of now

[steady fulcrum]

Marathon has been in development for a good while now

[vale void]

Im on about years ago

Ofc now d3 wont happen

[steady fulcrum]

Even years ago D3 would not have been a good idea

[vale void]

But the decision to make marathon to me will never make sense

[steady fulcrum]

Bungie when after over a decade of making Destiny they want to try their hands at something not destiny

Crazy

[vale void]

That is a fair point

But why choose a genre that is not really a easy win

[steady fulcrum]

Cause they want to remain unique

[vale void]

Most ppl dont care for extraction shooters

[zinc pewter]

extraction shooters have very little competition to begin with

[vale void]

We had to many of them over the years

[zinc pewter]

all youve really got is tarkov

[steady fulcrum]

What would have been an easy win in your book

[vale void]

Marathon not being an extraction shooter maybe a more lore story focused game

[steady fulcrum]

What does that mean

[vale void]

Single player

[steady fulcrum]

Last of Us

That would probably be the death of Bungie lmfao

[vale void]

I dont really care for extraction shooter

[steady fulcrum]

Okay

[vale void]

I aint playing a game where to a cheater i can lose stuff

[steady fulcrum]

I personally would like Sekiro 2

Marathon aint that

[vale void]

[steady fulcrum]

Point is you cant go for variety these days as evident by the onslaught of hero or other shooters that come out and die within a few weeks plus that aint Bungies style
They wanted to try their hands at a comparatively untapped genre and thats what theyre doing

Sure it might not have as much appeal to the masses as Destiny but lets see whether it works out

[vale void]

Extraction shooters are untapped genre i dont think ive heard anyone say that

?

[steady fulcrum]

As Jongo said, besides Tarkov there really aint many out there

Also "comparatively"

I personally am gonna give the game a shot since the visual style is very much of my personal liking but if it aint for me thats fine

[vale void]

I would give it a try

If it wasnt £40

[steady fulcrum]

40 bucks for a new release in this day and age is pretty cheap ngl

Look over at cod where you pay twice as much lmfao

[vale void]

???

Not when theres game that are free

[steady fulcrum]

Wow

[vale void]

Unless marathon will have less mtx

But we dont know the details of that

[steady fulcrum]

With that Argument even the 5 buck Indie game is expensive

[vale void]

??

5 bucks is alot less than 40

Its called math

[steady fulcrum]

Okay but 5 bucks is more than free

mAtH

[vale void]

Semantics

[steady fulcrum]

No you cant just brush off my argument that Marathon is almost half than the trippleA standard for multiplayer shooters with "but theres theres free games" and then pull that lmfao

sure 40 bucks aint cheap

But its a more decent deal than cod for 70 or whatever

[vale void]

Its a barrier to entry for many

[steady fulcrum]

Mayhaps

Whether 40 bucks is too much or aight is for everyone themselves to decide

[dusk crater]

Its a double edged sword, especially when marathon is a niche genre

That $40 price tag is probably there to soften the blow if the game doesnt do well

[steady fulcrum]

We'll see how they continue to monetize it

[dusk crater]

They gotta get people in the door first

And thats the thing theyre struggling with badly right now

People are walking away from the alpha feeling more skeptical than they came, meanwhile bungie is holding their cards close to their chest saying "the other two maps are great, trust me bro"

[steady fulcrum]

I cant comment on the gameplay yet since I havent played it and I personally dont atribute too much value to the alpha (possibly cope who knows)

What got me in the door was the games art direction and if the rest is half decent in a way that actually gets me to like the genre I can see myself actively play it

[zinc pewter]

Game is also a few months from release

Stuff people don't like about the alpha will most likely change for the full release

[steady fulcrum]

Maybe they will
Maybe they wont

Gotta wait and see

[dusk crater]

Im skeptical, cause theres some things that would require a radical shift in the entire games design to fix

And also a change in bungies stubborness

[steady fulcrum]

[dusk crater]

I hope it does well, but marathon coming out this year is gonna throw it under the bus

[steady fulcrum]

We'll see

But but the women in marathon are not attractive enough so it's slop

I wish I could even try marathon

But I don't live in the right place for that

[steady fulcrum]

Thank god I ditched twitter cause id probably have to read that sorta take bellow every related post

[surreal cradle]

Oh you don't even know...

[steady fulcrum]

And infact I dont wish to

[surreal cradle]

I hate it so much like let people enjoy stuff

[steady fulcrum]

Im quite happy over on bsky, it aint perfect but far better

[surreal cradle]

I should use it more

At least it's not like purely hatred and if you're awful enough you can even get consequences

[steady fulcrum]

It has its rough edges but most of the artists I like are on there now so its a no brainer

[bleak jetty]

Idk man 40 in this day and age is pretty cheap.

[steady fulcrum]

Cheaper than a lot of other games thats fo sho

It does obviously depends how they monetize the rest of it

[surreal cradle]

Wait can I play the testing with a VPN?

Or is that not allowed or not possible?

[hardy pasture]

I believe you didn't even need a vpn, just to lie on the subscription form

[surreal cradle]

Bruh

Can I still get in

[hardy pasture]

I believe the alpha has now ended

or will in a few hours

also I sent the form myself over a week ago right before it opened and did not get a code, so I wouldn't rely on it rn, even if it weren't to close soon

[surreal cradle]

Oh cool

Old clip, poor guy

[clever pine]

the characters in the hero shooter were simply not interesting enough

[quaint forum]

I think TF2s heroes is the gold standard for hero shooters

[clever pine]

"let's make a hero shooter but everyone's ugly"

[dapper finch]

And/or not have interesting lore

Whatever story they had planned should have come with the game and not later

It didn't even come out before the game got shut down lol

[clever pine]

one cutscene per week

and immediate industry plant effect since it had an episode already planned for that one show

crazy overinvestment

[dapper finch]

That showed characters that weren't present on the roster which inplies these were new characters set to come out around the same time

What a complete shitshow

[clever pine]

investors loved it though surely

cast of quirk chungus characters like in the Marvel movies !

[dapper finch]

I hate to say it, but sexy characters draw attention to your game; the Concord realism "art style" didn't help it either

[clever pine]

wait the sex... it... sells???

who woulda thunk

[dapper finch]

Its how every major F2P game got ita foothold

[clever pine]

we're figuring out basic stuff

[dapper finch]

League of Legends, Overwatch, and to a lesser extent, TF2

[clever pine]

basic stuff they ignored

[dapper finch]

Even just having one or two could've given them enough time to flesh out everyone else

[clever pine]

marvel rivals

[dapper finch]

Right, knew I was forgetting something

[clever pine]

let's make everything ugly and also boring to look at

this will sell

[dapper finch]

The death of video game art styles in favor of ultra-realism will be the biggest shame

[clever pine]

thank you Unreal Engine 5 (unrelated)

[dapper finch]

I'd blame it on Frostbite 2 (Battlefield 3) tbh

It pushed graphics so far that by the time the PS4 rolled around everyone was doing it

[clever pine]

frostbite is an infamously difficult engine to work with and designed with shooters in mind, unreal is the industry standard

[dapper finch]

Yes, but it was the catalyst for "Wow look at what graphics can be!"

[clever pine]

i don't think there's a single EA studio that didn'thave to get direct help from DICE for their games

[clever pine]

that was all of gaming since forever

[dapper finch]

But specifically for the ultra-realism during the mid 2010s

Though I guess Last of Us and Uncharted 4 came out only a few years after so who knows

[clever pine]

every console gen got better looking games and now they're stagnating graphically but still can't run on fucking anything because fuck optimizing

[dapper finch]

Oops, all DLSS

[clever pine]

oops all made up AI image slop

oops all TAA

here's this new problem with anti-aliasing we've never had before, this is the industry standard btw

[dapper finch]

My friends telling me to "just turn on upscaling" as if that's the solution to everything

[clever pine]

just put more work onto your cpu bro it'll run better surely

[dapper finch]

What's funny is that games that have these upscalers running at native resolution does actually make thinga run better and look better than TAA but so far, I have seen ONE game do it (God of War Ragnarok)

[clever pine]

DLAA can look better than native TAA but only because of Nvidia's transformer model

[dapper finch]

Unfortunately, I can't test that myself, I have an Intel GPU

[clever pine]

crazy how transformer can just relatively unblur the image

[dapper finch]

But if XeSS can do it, DLAA certainly should be able to

[clever pine]

sadly the new model has made DLAA acceptable to look at 😔

[hallow needle]

Nexius

[clever pine]

Veno

[hallow needle]

Hello

[clever pine]

hi

[hallow needle]

Alright thats all from me folks see you around Nexius

[clever pine]

see you around

[drifting plaza]

TAA hate huh

Deserved tbh. It makes things look so blurry

Imagine if destiny 2 had taa

Fxaa already is blurry enough

[clever pine]

it is just a coat of blur on everything it sucks

"jagged edges? just make it all blurry who cares"

dlss transformer model unironically saves TAA, though it requires DLAA

[drifting plaza]

I've been trying driver level image sharpening tools to kinda fix the blurriness. It works sometimes I guess. At least in rdr2 it works nice. I should try using it in d2 with fxaa on

D2's SMAA option barely does anything though..

[dapper finch]

Oh is that why everything is so sharp on Ultra preset

[lofty snow]

sterngth

[slow gorge]

Throwing ass back at the witness

[gentle sable]

real

[young vale]

What am I doing wrong?

[limpid hearth]

late grapple, you should be doing it a bit earlier

[young vale]

I’m spamming it as soon as I hit the trigger

[clever pine]

too late you can see the grapple catch behind the rocket

[half bear]

get a slower velocity rocket maybe? im thinking it could help with the timing

i havent done this so im not to sure how much itll help

[dusk crescent]

hey uh... how do you get this?

[clever pine]

load up the destiny 3 closed pre-alpha

[dusk crescent]

did I find something illegal?

[clever pine]

https://tenor.com/view/i-know-what-you-are-cat-sus-suspicious-cat-side-eye-cat-meme-gif-11842087146493734807

[jade whale]

What the hell is that

[zinc pewter]

the Carved Shame throwable weapon ofc

[dusk crescent]

Yeah, the DLC is expensive though

not to mention you have to finish a triumph to get it

[dusk crescent]

We got a new weapon archetype tho! : D

[dusk crescent]

you should tell new lights about this, so they can get it as soon as possible

[dapper finch]

I like the concept but as a hater, I am obliged to tell you your margins and typeface are wrong. Good work though!

[clever pine]

lighting also, random blue

[dapper finch]

I might mess around with making my own concept but I am bad at 3D models

[dusk crescent]

damn, I swear I have to get every detail just perfect

[dapper finch]

I don't mind it, but it is glaring when you stare at perks all day every day

Might help you to find some internal document with the guidelines for the inspect screen but that's either impossible or illegal

[clever pine]

nake your own

[dapper finch]

I very well could tbh, pixel measuring is painful and long but its nice

[dusk crescent]

I created the intier thing from scratch in inkscape just to mess with people

[dapper finch]

I wouldn't be surprised if the typeface they use for the game is like a $1200 license

[dapper finch]

I found a reddit post with all the correct typefaces

Dunno if I can post it but its very easy to find

[zinc pewter]

crazy

[alpine bronze]

Seems vaguely familiar

[devout flare]

Exotic fatebringer and praetorian foil

[alpine bronze]

Bring back a few other raid weapons damnit

Like vog pulse

[opaque solar]

So....why do we have guards with CHILDREN in the tower......is this a meatshield tactic?

[zinc pewter]

yoo this is fire!!!

[half bear]

https://tenor.com/view/dismissive-gif-10738059

[zinc pewter]

hdr just looks like that on screen for me aswell

[pastel kiln]

i thought this was an image for like 5 secs

[dapper finch]

That's because its a 2 seconds per frame gif

[pastel kiln]

Ur a 2 seconds per frame gif!!!

[dapper finch]

I'm going to snap you like a glowstick

[spice cliff]

holy shit, it's the Funny-Peely#0217

[zinc pewter]

Yea

[solemn estuary]

When?

Isn’t it like

Really soon?

Releases at the same time as the edge of fate trailer, right?

[glass cosmos]

After today's reset I think

[solemn estuary]

Epic, that’s like 2am for me lmao

Tomorrow morning o7

[steady fulcrum]

Thats the assumption yes

[solemn estuary]

EoF better be good

[steady fulcrum]

Guess we'll see ey

[solemn estuary]

I’m buying it regardless, but I hope it’s worth

[steady fulcrum]

Same lmfao

[solemn estuary]

The loot overhaul seems

Honestly

Dogshit

There’s no real problem with how armor works currently

And all in all it’s just gonna clog up our vaults

[clear hatch]

?

[steady fulcrum]

its an attempt to combat power creep

I hope it works out

[clear hatch]

Armor right now is 'get 100 resil' and that's it

It's really bad

[steady fulcrum]

I dont mind having to get new armor

Means I can finally start using my billions of rankup materials

Havent switched up my armor in what feels like years

[clear hatch]

Giving us actual motivation in the form of buildcrafting to hunt down armor? Yeah that sounds pretty great

[solemn estuary]

I have less

[steady fulcrum]

loot issue

[solemn estuary]

The weapon system seems alright

I’m just at a consistent state of 670/700 vault space

Traveler help me

[clear hatch]

Are you using 670 of those slots actively

Like

Let's be real

[solemn estuary]

No

[clear hatch]

Then you are aware that you should not be on 670 slots and that if you want to interact with the new system you should get off your ass and empty your vault

I'd bet you could trim it down to 200

And not actually lose anything

[steady fulcrum]

My vault is essentially a muesum

Any gun that dont drop no more that I could ever get my hands on sits in there

[clear hatch]

Right, but nobody's got 700 drops that belong in a musuem

[steady fulcrum]

Youd be surprised how much old shit I hoard

Ask D lmao

@sonic roost tell em

[sonic roost]

He hoard old useless shit

[solemn estuary]

This tbh

[sonic roost]

Is true

[solemn estuary]

I’ll provide some screenshots of my vault in a minute

I may be cooked

[frail locust]

Can put all these mats to use getting new armour.

[solemn estuary]

Whats that ahamkara skull for?

[frail locust]

My lucky skull

[solemn estuary]

…any elaboration?

[frail locust]

The ahamkara are some of my favourite bits of lore in Destiny and I've used claws of ahamkara since D1 until the exotic class items could get it.

[solemn estuary]

I see

[steady fulcrum]

Just throw em in the vault my man

[solemn estuary]

So how did you get that skull though?

[steady fulcrum]

Old shit man

[solemn estuary]

From a quest or smth?

[steady fulcrum]

Like pre Forsaken im pretty sure

[frail locust]

Into the light quest. Had to find Archie multiple times

The skull is for finding him in the dreaming city

[zinc pewter]

J

[solemn estuary]

Ah yes

“Pre-forsaken”

[steady fulcrum]

Nvm ig

[solemn estuary]

🥀

[zinc pewter]

All my Dog stuff is in my vault

[solemn estuary]

This is just weapons

I have a problem

[zinc pewter]

😭

What the freak man

I have 24 copies of Greasy Luck and still have 200 spaces left

[solemn estuary]

Damn

But whats the space for if you’re not gonna use it?

[zinc pewter]

@mystic saddle this changes tomorrow, surely

[solemn estuary]

Good point, will the old dungeon guns become obsolete?

[zinc pewter]

Probably an autism thing, if it's near full I get kinda worried for some reason

[solemn estuary]

Mine’s just constantly like that so i learn to accept it

[zinc pewter]

Spire ones were from the start, ghosts has 1 usable weapon and all of prophecy is mainly pvp and are used

[solemn estuary]

It does make me feel guilty about not deleting shit lmao

[zinc pewter]

I'm hoping Relentless gets some good pve perks, even if it is a high impact

[solemn estuary]

Very true, hopefully these new ones will be quite good. I’m mainly in it for the ghosts armor since i don’t have that dungeon.

[zinc pewter]

We don't know if it'll drop the armor

I would think not because it's a weapon based event and armor would make them far more annoying to farm

[solemn estuary]

I swear to fuck dude

I want ghosts armor so bad but i ain’t spending a cent on the lightfall dungeon key

[steady fulcrum]

Maybe you wont need it to play it during rite (cope)

[zinc pewter]

They confirmed it'll be completely f2p

[solemn estuary]

Armor is my priority atm haha

Like ive got plenty of guns

[steady fulcrum]

Oh fr?

[zinc pewter]

Yea

[steady fulcrum]

Armor isnt relevant lol
With the system getting revamped old armor will probably lose a lot of its value the moment the next expansion drops

[zinc pewter]

They want the ornaments I'm guessing

[steady fulcrum]

Fair

[frail locust]

I'm haven't saved any armour in a long time since learning about the revamp. Had something like this in the division mess up all my gear.

[light walrus]

Armour will always be smth else but drip is forever..

[solemn estuary]

facts

[cinder owl]

Lowkey im good with this roll

no more banner

[steady fulcrum]

Oh look thats my roll

I think

[mystic saddle]

the only other thing besides air trigger id use

is impulse

run it back 🗣️

[cinder owl]

i thought loose change was the roll

[mystic saddle]

nop

[plush breach]

air trigger chill clip

i got the roll then retired till i crazed the smg

[steady fulcrum]

Why do people want air trigger again?

[plush breach]

reserve ammo

i enjoy it cuz a simple hop doubles my reload too

since i play hunter im more in the air then i am on the ground

[steady fulcrum]

Ah

[plush breach]

the only other good perk if i recall is impulse and thats not crazy useful anyways

[steady fulcrum]

Eh im fine with enlightened action tbf

[mystic saddle]

reload multi

impulse is good

[steady fulcrum]

Dont really care about anything but reload on it

[mystic saddle]

people think impulse just makes things travel faster

in the big 25

[plush breach]

I just dont care cuz explosive

Since chill clip does that

[mystic saddle]

?

[steady fulcrum]

Bros thinking of danger zone or sum

[mystic saddle]

probs

[plush breach]

Wait what am i thinking of then hold on

Im thinking of reverberation

Nvm

[mystic saddle]

yea um

[steady fulcrum]

lmao

[mystic saddle]

that is dooky

[steady fulcrum]

Wait impulse doesnt increase the freeze radius right

Just the rocket impact aoe

[mystic saddle]

i dont believe so

[steady fulcrum]

I still remember when impulse first came out
Season of Chosen my beloved

[mystic saddle]

peak

[steady fulcrum]

Lasting Impression too

[mystic saddle]

caiatl, presage, 16 man lobbies

wot more could u ask for

[steady fulcrum]

Wasnt it 12 max?

[plush breach]

I want chosen weapons reworked

Gove me my smg back

[mystic saddle]

yea probs i forgor

[steady fulcrum]

I mean the smg by all means is still viable these days

[mystic saddle]

my xbox crashed in a gm once

cos there were too many well spams

and orbs

[steady fulcrum]

Overflow Frenzy what else could you possibly want

[mystic saddle]

[plush breach]

Its a crimanl heresy had those crappy weird block ones and not the chosen ones

[mystic saddle]

it is actually

since sub frenzy is still like one of the best smg combos

lmao

[steady fulcrum]

Overflow >

But yes

[plush breach]

I scrapped mine 💔 💔 💔 💔

[steady fulcrum]

Extraordinary Rendition

[mystic saddle]

i got OF on mine too

[steady fulcrum]

I dont use it because I would never betray my excape velocity like that

[mystic saddle]

model was neat too

i dont use it cos smgs are in the gutter !!!

[steady fulcrum]

I ran a 12 man Gos and then on 3rd encounter when the boss spawned 10 people died to the spawn animation and it crashed the game

[plush breach]

I remember the sidearm being decent also or am i just dense

[steady fulcrum]

Brass Attacks was decent for the fact that it was a sidearm

[plush breach]

Yeah

[steady fulcrum]

Aka it still kinda sucked in the grand scheme of things

[plush breach]

Good for sodearm

But thats like

[mystic saddle]

brass attacks 😭

i remember that piece of

[steady fulcrum]

WHat was the sniper called again
Far Future?

Didnt have snapshot so no one ever used it

[mystic saddle]

so real

[plush breach]

Threaded needle

The linear

[steady fulcrum]

I think I still got one of those sitting somewhere

In the depths of my vault

[plush breach]

Season 13 was so goated

Not even funny

[mystic saddle]

then there was season of the hunt

....

[steady fulcrum]

Heh

[plush breach]

What season?

Season of the hunt didnt exist

[steady fulcrum]

Considering the amount of content it had

Yeah

Might aswell

[mystic saddle]

basically

[steady fulcrum]

The scout was horrible but had a cool model

[mystic saddle]

they couldnt even put effort into the guns 😭

[plush breach]

Like the second pacific rim movie

[mystic saddle]

so so bad

[plush breach]

Didnt exist

I actually like royal hunt

[steady fulcrum]

I mean it made sense
It was right after Sunsetting so they didnt want to start the powercreep right back up

[plush breach]

Im FLOCKING towards iron banner for the new royal hunt scout

Same model idc just gimmie

I used royal hunt religiously for a good year

[mystic saddle]

the new guns coming

are so unappealing

on a real

[plush breach]

Well the ones weve seen so far

[steady fulcrum]

You dont even know what perks they gonna get bro

[mystic saddle]

we do

[steady fulcrum]

?

[mystic saddle]

twab showed iirc

[steady fulcrum]

All of them?

Of all 3 dungeons???

[mystic saddle]

im not talkin bout rite weapon

[steady fulcrum]

Oh

[mystic saddle]

the new playlist weapos

[steady fulcrum]

Oh playlist guns

[mystic saddle]

yep

[plush breach]

I actually dont remember what theyre getting

I only remember iron banner

[mystic saddle]

trials is banger tho inquisitor just became the best slug in game

besides chappy

[plush breach]

I know inquisitor and bootleg royal chase

Whats the rest?

[mystic saddle]

vang is pulse

um pvp was somethin i forgor

lol

nothin important it seems

oh wait maybe it was just NFs

trials n

ib

yea

[plush breach]

I wonder what the world drops will be

Nothing good but still im curious

[mystic saddle]

the problem with the arc pulse is

SEs one is better

lol

[steady fulcrum]

I mean that is probably one of the least owned pulses in the entire game

Aint no one grinding SE

[mystic saddle]

u should

goob pulse

[plush breach]

Salvations edge?

[mystic saddle]

i just dont use it

metaissue

smh

😔

[plush breach]

Ive heard its very mid

Deep stone solos

[mystic saddle]

?

2 things can be great

[plush breach]

Fair

[mystic saddle]

but no SE quality is far better

[steady fulcrum]

I gotta go back into raiding my guy
Tried SE once with a Sherpa, 4 hours later at 2am we quit cause Verity broke us

[mystic saddle]

best raid theyve ever made

[steady fulcrum]

Beat Herald first try tho that was funny

[plush breach]

I love deep stone

[steady fulcrum]

Same

[plush breach]

Im a fan boy

[steady fulcrum]

My most cleared raid

DSC is funy as hell

[plush breach]

Mines vog 💔

[mystic saddle]

yea its fun once u know wot tf is goin on lmaoo

[plush breach]

Wait no i dont remember

[steady fulcrum]

Makes sense

[steady fulcrum]

check rr

[plush breach]

My most cleared raids are the ones i dont like

[steady fulcrum]

Sitting on 81 dsc clears

[mystic saddle]

i generally dont have the desire to raid as i once did tbqh

its just fallin out of love from d2 ig

[plush breach]

I raid for the funny gun then dont touch it ever again

[mystic saddle]

is wot it is

[steady fulcrum]

Same but I wouldnt say falling out of love moreso just changing how I play the game

I dont have it in me to grind it for hours each day anymore and thats fine

[plush breach]

I got anxient gospel and the pulse and do not care for the exotic or anything else except maybe the ar

[mystic saddle]

nah i say fallin out cos its the same for most things nowadays

[steady fulcrum]

I just hop on every now and again and have my fun that way

[mystic saddle]

SD kept me around for at least like a month or two

then i just stopped again lol

[plush breach]

Sundred doctrine was so painful yet so cool

Sd is a love hate relationship for me

[mystic saddle]

SD is so peak

TFS dungeon key was basically a 10/10

[plush breach]

Sd and vh are goated

Best dungeon pack imo

[mystic saddle]

without doubt

[plush breach]

Deep ruined lightfalls

I am a deep hater

[mystic saddle]

deep is overhated

[plush breach]

The dungeon is cool but its so slow that i can feel myself age

[hidden crown]

lookin like im boutta drop a new album

[plush breach]

And i think thats why so many people hate it

[mystic saddle]

its only slow during parkour

minus that its fine

[plush breach]

I actually like the bosses

The water though i hate

[steady fulcrum]

Ong

[plush breach]

The moths are very fun too just not give comms and watch your friend turn into a nuclear bomb

Im slightly evil

Its my right of passage for dungeons

[mystic saddle]

contest moths

its so joever

[steady fulcrum]

My fav dungeon is deadass Spire
Its just fun to me

[plush breach]

I fr cant wait for rotn JUST to go for spire

[mystic saddle]

sd is defo my fav

besides duality

[steady fulcrum]

Based

Vespers is fun too besides boss dps

[plush breach]

Sd, vespers, prophecy, grasp

Those are mine

Rotn isent because the weapons suck sadly

But rotn might change that heavily

Makes me want a tex mechanica legendary hand cannon more and more

[mystic saddle]

i think legendary tex hc / slug will be off limits

tbh

[plush breach]

They did huckle tho

I can hope

[shy grove]

Just started final shape

[steady fulcrum]

Cmon i wanna farm my cataylst

[simple swan]

GG

[vale void]

30% is a nerf

But it isnt completely bad

It will still be good

[simple swan]

atleast it wont melt bosses

[wild crystal]

damn

30% is nerf

[zinc pewter]

Tether:
Tractor Cannon:
Felwinter's Helm:

[simple swan]

its not worth it to use 3 debuffs just to use LoW lmao

there are better DPS options at this point

[zinc pewter]

you cant stack weaken

any of those 3 debuffs will bring LoW back to its former glory

[agile ravine]

jongo do you have a felwinter build

[zinc pewter]

no

[agile ravine]

so why

whos using felwinter to get dps

it requires adds pretty close to the boss

[zinc pewter]

its a 35% weaken

[wise flare]

30%

[agile ravine]

you need to kill an enemy to proc the aoe

[wise flare]

But yeah

[zinc pewter]

is it 30?

[agile ravine]

its like

[wise flare]

Yeah

[agile ravine]

not applicable

[wise flare]

There's only two tiers of weaken

[zinc pewter]

someone told me it was 35 and i didnt care enough to check

[wise flare]

15% and 30%

[zinc pewter]

but still

and people have used it during boss encounters

with some finishers you can also launch enemies

[wise flare]

Yeah no felwinters does have actual application

It may not always be needed if someone's tractoring/tethering, or if you can get by with 15%

But it's a 30% debuff that can be extended via debuff extension

[vale void]

Download speed doesn't matter

A stable connection is more important

[wild crystal]

yeah i tested latency

mine is super stable

[vale void]

Latency to what

[wild crystal]

wdym

[vale void]

To a speed test server that is close

Game servers are not the same

They have different routing and its also game dependant

[wild crystal]

yeah server was in dallas

i live in mi

[vale void]

Speed test is kinda useless in this case

[vale void]

The bungie back end could be further way

[wild crystal]

probab

[vale void]

Destiny also uses a hybrid of peer to peer and servers

Sometimes isp dont route or have problems working well with the game

[wild crystal]

true

[vale void]

If you keep having these problems try a vpn

[wild crystal]

pretty sure thats bannable

[vale void]

A use of a vpn is not against tos

Other stuff like net limiting or solo que manipulation iss

Ur only using the vpn to help with ur isp not routing the game well

[stark lichen]

from the bungie stream
lmao

You heard it here first fellas

ChatGPT says Wrath is coming back
