[tulip vine]

power lvl doesnt matter u get brought up to 5 below your highest teammate anyway

[silent depot]

Would you like me to carry you?

[tired oriole]

mr gm

[thick frost]

I offered and they ignored so they probably don't wanna actually run it

[stone ermine]

Coming back for prep a few days before eof drops 😭✌️

[tall moat]

well ive never started a gm so ill attempted naturally thought it was all for like grinders with high artifact levels lol

[tired oriole]

no is for everyone

are you bait

[stone ermine]

You just gotta be patient and don’t do dumb stuff

[coarse burrow]

theyre not bait

[tired oriole]

im sorry for such an accusation

[stone ermine]

Naomi they need you

[thick frost]

Could storm warden of nothing easily rn

[tall moat]

what is the tracker nowadays that peeps use?

dosnt it show gm clears

[tired oriole]

?

[coarse burrow]

wha

[tough sable]

there goes flawless LOL!

[tired oriole]

lmao!!!

[thick frost]

For those who come after

[tough sable]

platinumize my body

[stone ermine]

“Forget” needs you for a gm

[tall moat]

might just do some lostsectors no one ingame atm xD

[thick frost]

Bait

[stone ermine]

Yeah that’s def bait

[tall moat]

wait did they change it? any strike can be a nightfall?

dudes havent played since last raid i aint gonna lie

[coarse citrus]

what is the ascendant alloy quickest farm?

[tall moat]

wait you can wtf why did they change that O_o thought i was one random strike a week that was gm

[echo trellis]

hi chat

[rotund jewel]

Don’t get Slayer's Fang from Xur if you respect OG Destiny players. It’s more than an exotic; it’s a symbol of their early commitment and grind. Let them keep their exclusivity.

Show your respect by appreciating its rarity, not owning it. Some things are better left untouched.

[silent depot]

Do you still need help?

[unique granite]

Lf5 EDZ patrols

[thick frost]

We Earned our fang, they XURNED it

[tall moat]

prob fasters so yeah sure

[stone ermine]

I bought it

[tired oriole]

lost sectors dont drop exotics.

[tall moat]

since when ? thought there were 2 special lostsectors you can solo and get exotic armor on rotation ( by piece )

[tired oriole]

its been over a year

[tall moat]

dam

[tired oriole]

1 lost sector again

[thick frost]

We need grandmaster patrols

[tall moat]

@silent depot ign?

[rotund jewel]

Exactly bro

[stone ermine]

Those are called master patrols

[silent depot]

Niall#4350 @tall moat

[tall moat]

says i cant join

[tired oriole]

i hope u clear

[alpine garnet]

fox clears

[silent depot]

logging on one second

[thick frost]

We need ultimatum patrols

[alpine garnet]

yeah ts almost 5 pm here

[tired oriole]

4am

[inner sandal]

[alpine garnet]

the best car

[sour ermine]

car

[rapid pendant]

hello

[languid niche]

You guys have the same car

[tough sable]

We are the same human

[edgy forum]

Type

[steel garnet]

why does it say everywhere to use still hunt or microcosm against the witness and not queenbreaker or sth?

cuz last time when I asked about the final boss from warlord's ruin everyone said that queenbreaker is better than anything else

isn't that the same type of boss? it's 100% of precision hits

[sour ermine]

any news that is older than this episode was made when queenbreaker wasn't good

[steel garnet]

oh

[edgy forum]

Still hunt got a fat nerf it's 🗑

Queenbreaker meta atm

[steel garnet]

alright ty

[tough sable]

bro wtf u talking about

[sour ermine]

sunless is part of heresy not echoes

[valid gale]

Do holofoils impact the performance of a weapon or is it just cosmetic

[steel garnet]

and which prism warlock super should I take against the witness?

[sour ermine]

cosmetic

[tough sable]

well

[valid gale]

Thanks!

[steel garnet]

prism warlocks dont have the well

only song of fire

[tough sable]

why not sanguine swap

[west dock]

i refuse to use well

[tough sable]

some one cant well skate 🤫

[west dock]

if that means i don't get into raids, then fine. I am tired of being some sort of portable bubble

[steel garnet]

whats even sanguine swap

[west dock]

don't want to give bungie the engagement numbers that makes it seems like its okay to nerf everything else in the lock kit

[tough sable]

place well then switch to arc super for 4x arc surge for qb

[steel garnet]

okay which super is the best for the witness for prism warlock

[tough sable]

wym lock doesn't have a bad subclass

[west dock]

they are nerfing the non-solar bits

[sour ermine]

remove any artifact support and tell me that strand is good

[tough sable]

i mean grapple is always amazing to have for me

[steel garnet]

needlestorm? song of fire? nova bomb?

[tough sable]

otherwise mid

[west dock]

the issue is that all that is just a worse version of what its like for other classes

[drowsy prism]

With necro gloves and thorn strand is still really good
I make everything suspend and die to poison

[sour ermine]

nova, just aim a lil higher so you don't block shots from the team, or needle if you're using euphony

[cerulean olive]

yeah but killing that but faster is just better

[keen radish]

is it possible to invite ppl to your fireteam for an expert nether run in progress at the final boss

[steel garnet]

I heard that needlestorm does 400k and nova bomb 280k

[sour ermine]

don't know where you got that but that's very much not true

[tough sable]

this dude just baiting 😴

prism lock on witness is 🪤

[steel garnet]

literally I've seen it on reddit

[alpine garnet]

needle lacks vital fragment on pris. nova will outperform

[steel garnet]

I hate nonprism warlock

[west dock]

and the rest of strand locks kit is so awkward

prims warlock is basically all i use these days

[tough sable]

boring

[steel garnet]

the only reason I came back to playing warlock is because they added synthoceps

[alpine garnet]

[west dock]

eh, lots of fun with felwinters helm and stormdancers brace (though did they nerf brace?)

[steel garnet]

so it's either karnstein with well or prism

[tough sable]

idek what that is

[alpine garnet]

arc hunter clears master se solo

[steel garnet]

melee hunter deals no dmg btw

to whoever lied to me a few days ago

[sour ermine]

stormdancers??🥀

[tough sable]

this chat is not real

[west dock]

its the exotics that buffs stormtrance and refunds super on end

feels like the refund is nothing now

[tough sable]

why are we using stormtrance ever

[steel garnet]

should have left the final shape happen and there wouldnt be a problem

[devout raft]

will it be possible to beat the campaign on tuesday?

[sour ermine]

yeah i know what it does, no idea why you would waste your exotic on that

[west dock]

for fun

[alpine garnet]

servers gon take a nap for a day

[devout raft]

on final shape launch it took me 2 hours per quest step

[west dock]

started as a meme build: try to make as many orbs as possible. Spams the super + transcendance

[alpine garnet]

after billion gazillion players login at the same time

[devout raft]

they said they rented servers for final shape launch

[steel garnet]

like 6-8 hours after launch it should be stabilized

[devout raft]

and it was worse than lightfall

when there were more players

[sour ermine]

people are not as hyped for eof as they were for tfs, we could see servers being a lil more stable this time

[devout raft]

yeah 12 hours after launch it still took an hour to load into the new strike for the campaign quest

[alpine garnet]

yeah there was some desync or smth, quests just wouldn’t start

[steel garnet]

6-8 is different than 12 tho

[devout raft]

they should expect 2-3 hundred thousand people to log in on the dlc launch

[alpine garnet]

nah, I bet they’ll be down

[devout raft]

it really shouldnt be this hard to prepare for it

this is what

the 5th year or something

[steel garnet]

because after 6-8 h the entire europe goes to sleep and comes back a few hours later

[devout raft]

they should have this down by now

[alpine garnet]

is there polymarket vote on whether servers be down

[tough sable]

aint shi gonna change bc that would cost money

[west dock]

sadly, not really possible to guarantee

[steel garnet]

name a single online game that doesn't have server issues every big update

[alpine garnet]

only WQ had the smooth launch i think

prob fired admin working on that shift cus later dlc launches were dog

[sleek root]

Genuine Question - Is DSC's sword still the best overall sword for dps or is there a new #1?

[stone ermine]

Dare I say Minecraft

[steel garnet]

weren't there separate servers back then or did I mess up the games

[tough sable]

sunnom bonum

[alpine garnet]

any hoyoverse game

[steel garnet]

minecraft is nor an online game unless it's a server like hypixel, and hypixel does have huge server issues every bigger update

in fact hypixel has server issues all the time even without updates

[sleek root]

?

[tough sable]

adept se sword

[cerulean olive]

it looks like he answered your question

[steel garnet]

literally fake, they don't give tons of primos etc. for no reason

[sour ermine]

nope, adept sword from SE with chaos reshaped or with surrounded and the adept impact mod is better

[stone ermine]

Multiplayer worlds are considered online, I don’t have any experience with having any issues but that’s prob just me

[steel garnet]

multiplayer worlda are based on individual servers or hosts that aren't from mojang, and if it' from mojang then it's a small server that has no right to have issues

cuz there are like 2 players anway

[silent depot]

@tall moat you're welcome now for me to sleep

[tall moat]

Thanks, wish i got a dam exotic tho but oh well

ggs enjoy the rest

[tulip vine]

wave sword damage falls off pretty hard with 6 people iirc

[sour ermine]

yeah the waves don't stack as a fireteam so having 1 summum and 5 bequests is gonna be better than having 6 of summum or 6 bequests

[alpine garnet]

bungie in 3 days

[devout raft]

Counter Strike

[stone ermine]

LOL

[devout raft]

Bungie gets paid by valve

get my weekly cs drop

Sell the crate on marketplace

Buy the d2 dlc

[tulip vine]

very wise

[tall lava]

Imagine loot box in destiny 2 and every eveverse item needs to be unlocked to purchase first and every cosmetic is atleast 1500 silver

[tall moat]

does cryptarch dude not give high exotics ?

[tall lava]

You mean 2020 power?

[tall moat]

no stats

[tall lava]

Idk

[tall moat]

before i could just farm lost sectors and get high stat exotics but i guess they fked over that

[steel garnet]

counter strike doesnt have any updates at all

I went in the salvations edge final area to test things in practice and shat my pants

[rapid pendant]

how do i become good in destiny

[devout raft]

Equip synthoceps

[buoyant violet]

"Oh bro, I'll just take a couple days break then come back and grab bounties"
5 weeks later
Man..... it ain't even worth it now.

[devout raft]

If you want to do bounties before eof, you still have plenty of time

you can do all weeklies on all characters and get to 6 artifact unlocks when the dlc comes out

[buoyant violet]

Thanks bro. I'll rock what I can

[devout raft]

Ive been hella slacking too

i haven’t done a single bounty in like 4 weeks

[gusty fractal]

Guys how do I change the NA next to my name to EU?

[buoyant violet]

We got a little time. Deciding on the bounty is a whole other discussion I'll procrastinate on lol

[stone ermine]

Region

[bright grotto]

You can change your region with the /region command. Must be performed in one of the text channels.

[wanton halo]

its not allowed to use eager edge in bungie tournuments

[devout raft]

Youre in a residential neighborhood

[edgy forum]

Truth

[frigid magnet]

all titan barrow dyad peacekeepers kings fall run boutta become a distant dream on Tuesday 💔

[coarse citrus]

how to check which all catalysts I do not have?

[frigid magnet]

Collections tab → patterns and catalysts

Then the last icon

[coarse citrus]

Thx

can slayer's fang catalyst be acquired anymore?

[vestal fjord]

Yes, quests related to the Kells fall mission from episode revenant

[spare locust]

🤫

[alpine garnet]

3 min prophecy ultimatum folks breaking the limit?

[neon cradle]

guys, if i buy edge of fate itself for 30 dollars. does that include that battlepass as well? or will i have to buy that separately

[thick veldt]

Need to get the deluxe eddition for the passes to be included. However, Bungie has a habit of giving you the current pass when you buy an expansion.

[gentle sapphire]

guys on which channel do i ask for help with the target lokc catalyst for barrow dyad

[thick veldt]

#exotic-quests I assume.

[neon cradle]

so if i buy edge of fate, ill get the pass for it?

[last escarp]

For the upcoming season

[thick veldt]

There's two passes, so I assume you'll get the first one.

That being Ash and Iron, the Plaguelands season.

[gentle sapphire]

no ones answering T_T

[neon cradle]

the website says, 1 active rewards pass on standard. for the year of prophecy standard and ultimate its 1 active and 3 rewards passes. idk what that means

[thick veldt]

So the first one that's currently active.

Which will be Ash and Iron.

[neon cradle]

the other comes out with renegades i presume?

[nimble sundial]

Does anyone know which seasonal armor will next be in the store?

[thick veldt]

There's 2 between EoF and Renegades. So the second one you won't get unless you buy it or the deluxe version.

[iron sinew]

i own this cord

[vestal fjord]

There are gonna be four reward passes, one per expansion + one per mid-season update, so four in total. Active one will be the one for EoF before ash and iron.

[flat trellis]

False

[wanton halo]

Housemarque Games should make a destiny 3

just look at their saros trailer and you would understand

[woeful cloud]

N9 survivors vs calls mini tools?

[blissful scaffold]

This man won lottery

[blissful scaffold]

N9 cause it have more perks than calus

[woeful cloud]

Ok ty

[blissful scaffold]

@thick veldt hello bestie

[spare mountain]

what stat is gonna turn into the new class ability stat

[winter laurel]

You won it, i have answered you

[steel garnet]

omg why are all the guides for dungeons or raids so fkin disgusting

these people can't explain anything at all, they can complicate the easiest mechanics for no reason

and the video guides are always like 30 min long and written guides have 20 pages full of text

literally devs should release official quick guides for everything, after all they created these mechanics so they should be able to explain best

[blissful scaffold]

???

[wanton halo]

how is this exotic so rare ro drop ?

cause when the dungeon first dropped i got it on my first clear what did bungie do to make it like this ?

[covert pawn]

hi guys, I have choir of one through a vendor. How to access the questline for the catalyst as i did not do the the original questline to get choir

[clever gate]

Is destiny going down for maintenance on Monday ?

[blissful scaffold]

No info

[sour ermine]

you gotta do the echoes storyline still, it's free for everyone for now

to start it do the mission "meteoric" on nessus, make sure you also at least start the other seasonal quests

[unkempt basalt]

Its likely going down

[alpine garnet]

hi toad hi

[alpine garnet]

bungie known for explaining things clearly

[edgy cosmos]

Auf der suche nach einem Deutschsprachigen Clan

[verbal field]

[coarse matrix]

Hey guys how do you get the gauntlet triumph for rite of the nine

[tribal plover]

do GM nightfalls rotate weekly? if so, how are there insight gm lfgs when my gm nightfall is something different?

[proven remnant]

anyone know if acrius catalyst drops from private matches?

[past path]

It's a catalyst so yes

[molten condor]

i mean not all catalysts do

[proven remnant]

i think it could be an exception

because it only says found in strikes

[molten condor]

it will say in the catalysts tab in collections

[proven remnant]

it only does say strikes but you know how bungie is so i wanted to make sure

but i do believe it only does from strikes

[past path]

Have fun doing strikes

[proven remnant]

😭

[blissful scaffold]

Gm farm is strike

[thick veldt]

Not that bad to just crank out a bunch of strikes and hope.

[steady vortex]

can a mod in here ban someone pls

[past path]

Wish Gos counted as a strike

[steady vortex]

someone from here came into my server and just started spamming hard r's

[thick veldt]

#support-ticket I assume.

[rocky geyser]

I only have intrinsic 3/4 on choir is it worth it to do that again for 12 handling?

[thick veldt]

More stats is more stats.

[blissful scaffold]

Get them all

[tall cedar]

meanwhile the community says next dlc and the whole game is trash i will still play it becuase there is no game that will make me hyped

[gentle gust]

Hey team, quick question. Is there supposed to be a boss chest at the end of shattered throne?
I didn't see one and now I'm worried I missed it

[blissful scaffold]

It supposed after u kill the wizard

[tall cedar]

but they give just give you the loot on hand like no chest

[gentle gust]

yeah. we killed the wizard. and then the mission ended. loot popped up at the side of my screen. I was just making sure I didn't orbit out without rollin for my chance to get the ship

[tall cedar]

Its how that dungeon is made

i know that because i have sollo flawles it

[sterile nacelle]

do i get an xp boost on claiming challenges if i join someone with a maxed season pass?

[tall cedar]

Yes

[sterile nacelle]

in that case will anyone let me join them for a whoile 15 seconds lmao

i have 80 levels to grind before reset...

[tall cedar]

well im season pass the 200

[sterile nacelle]

Could i join u for a min, load into the tower, claim challenges and dip? i think thats how it works?

[stable flame]

Did nether shinys always have 3 perks in each slot?????

[tall cedar]

if you have maxed the vendor on both sides you can have shiny like that

[stable flame]

Ohhhh Nicee

[twin harbor]

hey guys i havent played since early final shape, is there a checklist of things i should try to pick up before the update and also which hunter exotic is worth focusing from rahool rn if i don't have good rolls atm for pve

anyone know any clear farm servers

[finite venture]

Hello, i'm recruiting a raid team for the contest mode of the edge of fate raid coming this 19th july

i'm dead motivated to try for the world 1st

[alpine garnet]

#1377346270817161306

[finite venture]

thanks !

[gentle gust]

thank you

[verbal field]

Just don't play pvp

[verbal field]

I don't think you're getting worlds first with a team from this discord

[finite venture]

i have a superpower many people dont have here

[verbal field]

?!?!

[finite venture]

i am unironically autistic. I think outside the box on a daily basis

[thick veldt]

Wasn't RoN world's first with an LFG team?

[shy cedar]

Hello
Question, what is lfm1 and lfm2 in the server? (Am new here)

[finite venture]

and is certified by numerous psychologist

[thick veldt]

Looking for [Number] of people.

[shy cedar]

Oh, thank you

[verbal field]

I don't think it was? EoW was

LF5M WF DP KWTD R1 NL

[alpine garnet]

hi Zero hi

[wide lynx]

I am no longer asleep

[verbal field]

Hiii

Uchur are you running the raid

[alpine garnet]

nah, idk of even buying new dlc

[verbal field]

You have to

[wide lynx]

Your life depends on it probably maybe I think

[verbal field]

It does

[thorn tulip]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[alpine garnet]

hi RS hi

[thorn tulip]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[wide lynx]

I'm getting the DLC anyways because I'm still enjoying playing destiny

[thorn tulip]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[verbal field]

D2 is awesome

[wide lynx]

I get called a shill for it but I can just make bad jokes and get them to go away so it all works out

[alpine garnet]

idk, i lean more towards SP games, and don’t even buy shii in gachas anymore. live service games are trash

[wide lynx]

so I didn't know what an SP game was so I googled it and it's apparently just gameboy stuff

[verbal field]

SP is singleplayer bro

[wide lynx]

ew

why would anyone abbreviate it to that

also fair enough with playing single player games but I never liked them I like playing with other people

[verbal field]

I barely play singleplayer games

[wide lynx]

if I ever do a single player game I just do the campaign or whatever it has and leave, then I'm bored again, there are very few single player games that keep my attention for long

that's just me tho

[pliant parrot]

lol me wheni play single player games

[wide lynx]

real and true

[pliant parrot]

STORY PROGRESSION CLOSES SIDE QUESTS!

[verbal field]

I don't like singleplayer rpgs

Puzzle games and roguelikes are cool

[wide lynx]

oo yes I love puzzle games

[wanton halo]

my favorite puzzle game is call of duty

[wide lynx]

;alsiegjhpaowin

alowuiefghawpuikhviuasv

[wanton halo]

because to this day im still wondering how they can add content from old cods and call it new

[wide lynx]

no

[wide lynx]

that's just game development in a nutshell, you reuse as much and as often as possible

[alpine garnet]

my favorite puzzle game is dota 2

[wide lynx]

not so you can be lazy or make your job easier but because if you don't, everything gets bloated and terrible to work with

[verbal field]

So true

[wanton halo]

nah but they deliberately leave stuff out like certain perks in zombies and then just add them later on in seasons

[wide lynx]

yeah that's typical and understandable too

like I get it from a consumer perspective but

[verbal field]

This is literally what destiny does

We still don't have all content from d1

[alpine garnet]

who played red war campaign after completing it once

[wide lynx]

as someone who does a LOT of coding trust me, stuff will break for any and all reasons, and adding things in later is perfectly understandable

[sage plover]

Fanboy

[pliant parrot]

right but it feels like bungie doesnt even test anymore

[thick veldt]

They physically cannot. Consider all of the systems that D1 has that would outright not work on D2.

[wide lynx]

Y1 when people had to delete their characters to get more power level to get raid ready. Also anyone who just wanted to do homecoming again

[alpine garnet]

grok tests their code

[wide lynx]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAH I assure you, you don't know what a lack of testing looks like. Especially not with a very large game like D2

[verbal field]

Do you not see the point im making? They cant just port all old content instantly

[wide lynx]

I'm genuinely shocked the game isn't MORE broken then it is

plus sometimes little breaks grant us gifts like well and shatter skating so

[thick veldt]

The craftening.

[wide lynx]

also true

[verbal field]

Bungie should just hire me for QA

[wide lynx]

you're going to hate your job

[alpine garnet]

destiny codebase should be rewritten in javascript

[verbal field]

Don't care

[wide lynx]

it's not worth it come back to the light

[thick veldt]

QA testing is walking into every wall to make sure it has collision.

[verbal field]

True and real

[verbal field]

I don't mind doing that

[wide lynx]

that's the easy part of the job

[thick veldt]

Also, was adding to what you said by pointing out that there's things they can't add due to how they'd conflict with existing game functionality.

[thick veldt]

Every time I think of QA, this exact meme always comes into my head.

[verbal field]

If i can do a mind numbing encounter for 12 hours straight i can do QA fr fr

[wide lynx]

you forgot standing in the bar for 12 hours straight to see what happens

[thick veldt]

Integer overflow, bar flips upside down.

[wide lynx]

correction, standing in the bar and not doing anything for 12 hours straight to see what happens

[wide lynx]

would not be surprised tbh

[verbal field]

Sounds like an easy work day to me

[thick veldt]

(Or it could be like D2 where spending too long in an activity causes some abilities to stop working.)

[wide lynx]

brother you have to pay attention to the screen the whole time

or like as much as possible towards the end anyways

[verbal field]

Cool

[wide lynx]

imagine just staring at a screen doing nothing waiting for the possibility of something breaking

[tired oriole]

sounds fun

i be on my phone n shi

[wide lynx]

fox why are you a dog

[tired oriole]

crt

[wide lynx]

you're not a tv

[tired oriole]

crv

[wide lynx]

that's a lie

[tired oriole]

brrom broom

[verbal field]

I imagine something like this would just be kept on overnight and recorded

And then you can just scrub through the footage if anything breaks

[wide lynx]

this isn't 2047

[compact radish]

Where do I post to look for someone to do clan bounties?

[verbal field]

But they'd probably only do something like this if there's a known bug report that happens after like 12 hours

[tired oriole]

i want a job where i stare at camera footage while on camera

[verbal field]

Fnaf

[tired oriole]

quirty

[wide lynx]

nah they have to do leak testing or whatever it was called before the game launches

leak testing isn't the actual name I just forgot what it was called

[verbal field]

Memory leak?

[wide lynx]

it's something to do with liquids probably

[wide lynx]

no

well yes but that's not necessarily what they're looking for

maybe it's absorbtion testing but that doesn't sound right either

[verbal field]

I remember seeing another company hire for testing and they required like 2k hours in the game

But that wasn't QA

[wide lynx]

all testing is QA to some degree even if it isn't called that

[verbal field]

Well yeah but that kind of tester doesn't get a list of mundane tasks

[tired oriole]

👅 🤟

[wide lynx]

still QA

[tired oriole]

aaahhhh

[wide lynx]

e

[unborn ledge]

Did they reenable the free nonary engram?

[verbal field]

Yes

[tired oriole]

Yes

[wide lynx]

yes

wow thats so cool i will log on rn

nice save

FTC3 full of cheaters lmao

[wide lynx]

interesting

[solemn flame]

you need them to be good it’s okay bro

[wide lynx]

what

what does this mean

[green cipher]

yeah sorry man

[verbal field]

you need them to be good it’s okay bro

[solemn flame]

np atleast we can admit our wrongs

[green cipher]

thanks for helping me with my journey of recovery

[solemn flame]

yup

[pliant parrot]

lol Euros are weak. Imagine crying because its 69F

its 75F in my house right now and i'm wearing pjs

[verbal field]

#💬off-topic-no-destiny-talk

[tired oriole]

its d2 related

[tired oriole]

d2 lore has present day

everything is d2

[rare junco]

I set a goal for myself to complete 3 illegal armor sets this week, last night I finished set 2.

[tired oriole]

what makes them illegal

[civic kettle]

mobility int combo

[wide lynx]

because armor as of EoF launch can't roll with certain combos

[rare junco]

yup!

[wide lynx]

people have been farming out mobil/int which will translate to weapon/super though imo this combo is gonna be dogwater

[civic kettle]

devs wanting to timegate that armor type

[wide lynx]

great for boss damage but bad for everything else

[thick veldt]

Me when Weapon + Health. Also known as having a good neutral game.

[wide lynx]

ngl I think that having any 2 stats at 200 is bad

[thick veldt]

You'll get more mileage out of not dying and having better gun damage than you will anything else in the neutral game.

[wide lynx]

only one stat should be at 200, more than that leaves too little points in your other stats and if you've seen gameplay you know low stats feel like crap

[thick veldt]

You'd probably want 100 health and weapons as a baseline anyway. So if you can get 200 in a stat that benefits your build the most, while still having 100 in those two, you should be sitting good.

But also, Hunters getting screwed over by the stat changes just feels like Bungie telling people to stop playing Hunter.

[wide lynx]

don't agree but fair enough

[thick veldt]

The dodges should ONLY be tied to the class ability stat, unless they want to make it fair and apply it to Titan and Warlock too.

[pliant parrot]

i farmed a decent set of int/mob on my lock, but i'll probably just end up using my resil/disc armor for everything else cause i'm lazy

[wide lynx]

ngl I think the changes are perfectly fine for them. There's nothing wrong with the gambler's dodge change. You shouldn't be able to have the effect of 100 melee by building 100 class and 0 melee.

[thick veldt]

Then make barricades and rifts based on other stats too.

[wide lynx]

they don't refund other ability charges

so they don't need to be based on other stats. And lets not forget gambler's dodge is not the only dodge in the game my guy

[sweet cairn]

Can anyone help me get dual destiny unlocked please
MOB SgmMartinez#6793

[cedar dragon]

i would but im not helping because i dont like you.

[thick veldt]

So then why gut the ability by forcing you into using a certain stat distribution for it to function how it's supposed to?

[sweet cairn]

👌🏽

[unborn ledge]

Totally agree

[verbal field]

Meow meow meow

[wide lynx]

it still refunds melee energy. They're just changing how it's supposed to work. Nerfs are a thing that exist because they are necessary. Just because you don't like being nerfed doesn't make the nerfs bad

don't be so pissy about getting nerfed, every class has this happen to them. You're not being bullied by bungie

[verbal field]

Hop on levi entrance we gotta practice our double icarus skates

[wide lynx]

hunters be like "oh I HAVE to use 70 melee now f u bungo" when they can just use a different dodge on a non melee build or something

[thick veldt]

Hunters are in one of the worst states they've ever been in, there is not a single place for them in the game right now that Titans or Warlocks or a single exotic can't shove them out of.

[verbal field]

Complaining about class balance is stupid and you shouldn't care

[wide lynx]

you act as though titans and warlocks haven't had bad states before. Sure warlock has always had well of radiance, but there's been times where they're complete dogshit outside of that. Same with titans and they don't even have well

[thick veldt]

The only playstyle they can do that other classes can't do better is invis spam, and that's next to useless when they lack any form of universal survivability that isn't tied to an exotic.

[verbal field]

If you main only 1 class thats a you problem

[thick veldt]

So then why nerf them if they're in a bad state?

[wide lynx]

everyone is getting nerfs and everyone is getting buffs. stop acting like a victim bro you're not

[civic kettle]

all hunter needs is still hunt nerf to be reverted

[verbal field]

So what are titans gonna do after this season lol

[wide lynx]

strand getting juiced a bit

[verbal field]

The banner of war aspect

[civic kettle]

they gonna play the same stuff they use rn

[wide lynx]

and arc titan is still good even if the barricades no longer stack, most teams are gonna have one for day 1

[verbal field]

It'll be significantly worse no?

[thick veldt]

Yea, at least one Storm's Keep titan is still going to be present.

Bolt Charge is just free damage.

[verbal field]

Without the artifact mod buffing bolt charge it'll be way worse

[civic kettle]

which subclass

[verbal field]

Prismatic and arc

[wide lynx]

not significantly. Consecration is still good, slight nerf but it's fine. Arc titan just doesn't stack barricades anymore but no problem. Strand titan is getting buffed and that hasn't had a lot of time in the sun recently so that should be fine

[civic kettle]

you'll still be able to play cons it just won't nuke entire rooms anymore

[verbal field]

Lightning surge warlock > cons ong

[wide lynx]

as a lightning surge warlock I see no problems here

[thick veldt]

Chacha slide build.

[verbal field]

Lightning surge build is getting only buffs which is funny

[civic kettle]

ye

[verbal field]

I will be running it for campaign and stuff probably

[wide lynx]

yea I'm gonna have fun with that lol. Though starfire is also getting buffs

arclock getting nerfed a tiny bit but I've been playing that a lot so I'm fine with it

[thick veldt]

Stasis really needs some TLC. Having only one champion affinity is pain.

If I recall the whole subclass hasn't really been doing much of anything after Revenant.

[verbal field]

Use icebreaker and you can stun unstops again 4head

[wide lynx]

not really but it had some time in the sun then. Frankly it's better than most people think but arc was SO busted this season that it just feels bad. Will probably feel good after the arc nerfs despite not getting buffs really

[thick veldt]

Well that's the problem, they put the ice subclass in the sun.

[wide lynx]

water subclass confirmed?

[thick veldt]

Still think that Freeze should apply to unstops instead of Overloads.

[verbal field]

Water subclass that knocks enemies around

[thick veldt]

Water balloon grenade.

[verbal field]

And uh debuffs them or something

[wide lynx]

you can drown people

or suck the water out of their bodies

or kill them alternatively

[thick veldt]

Actually. Imagine if had synergies with some subclasses. Drench enemies to make them weak to Arc, Dreched enemies also Freeze faster.

[wide lynx]

ngl that's a fire concept

[verbal field]

You can like soak enemies and then proc an ability to explode all of them fr

[wide lynx]

bungie releases a water gun which just makes enemies weaker to arc and stasis

[verbal field]

Soaked enemies makes arc damage chain between them

[wide lynx]

that is such a cool concept lmao

[thick veldt]

Infinite ammo primary weapon.

[tacit ledge]

breach executable, tomb of elders, court of blades, and the nether better become fireteam ops like istg

[verbal field]

Not happening

[thick veldt]

Wait, wait, it's a trace rifle, so it can shoot a constant stream of water.

[wide lynx]

they might get added eventually but I think they're not included to start

[tacit ledge]

THEY BROUGHT BACK SAVATHUNS SPIRE MANNNN

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

[thick veldt]

The Coil is coming back too.

[verbal field]

I hope they never add the nether back

[tacit ledge]

I hope you get thrown to the wolves

[wide lynx]

I like the nether 😦

[tacit ledge]

never prayed for someone's downfall harder

[thick veldt]

Nether is a good change of pace from the usual game mechanics.

[verbal field]

It's extremely repetetive

[thick veldt]

It feels like a more proper Roguelite mode than either the Coil or Savathun's Spire was.

[tacit ledge]

ok so is like every activity in the game wdym

[verbal field]

Coil was way better what

[solemn bane]

Can someone explain elemental honiing. If I use a Solar Grenade, Strand Melee, Arc Side Arm, Kinetic primary, and then shoot with Stasis Rocket (that has EH)...... is that X5 and 35% for 100 seconds?

[tacit ledge]

local man learns repeating something will make it repetitive

[civic kettle]

35% for 20 sec

[cedar dragon]

wruff :3

[wide lynx]

no kinetic doesn't count with it

[thick veldt]

My main gripe is honestly the buffs to your boon stacks. It means you're getting boons 3x as fast which means you can just pick up Ontological Limit and get like double the damage.

[verbal field]

The problem is that a lot of the repetition in the nether isn't even fighting enemies, you're just running around

[thick veldt]

Sure it feels great to get stupidly strong, but at the same time it just makes it stupidly easy.

[winged patio]

When do servers go offline?

[verbal field]

Usually 24 hours before the expansion

[wide lynx]

they haven't said yet, but most likely monday daily reset

[winged patio]

Oki so I should have a solid day to get caught up

[thick veldt]

I got my Slayer Baron and Heretic titles, so I'm set.

[verbal field]

Can someone carry me through all ultimatum modes tomorrow ?!?!

[pliant parrot]

lol

[wide lynx]

I'm good but I don't think I can carry that

[verbal field]

Well I'm looking I'm just gonna lfg it

Looking? Joking

[tired oriole]

i looking

[tacit ledge]

every seasonal activity in like the entire history of the game could literally fit into the game since it just goes into the portal now

[tired oriole]

this is the song of the summer

[tired oriole]

?

[tacit ledge]

wdym ?

very self contextual statement

[thick veldt]

Feels like that one Tomska sketch. "Where's the Coil?" "In the hole." Hole noises. "Where's the Nether?" "In the hole."

[tacit ledge]

bro needs to be told what the portal is 💔

[tacit ledge]

but like even as far back as like FORGES, the FIRST seasonal activity

there are BARELY any that wouldn't have some place

[pliant parrot]

me too buddy me too

[tired oriole]

pls lmk !

[tacit ledge]

• just bring back their loot pool and like ??? free content as long as you patch it back up properly

[tired oriole]

ion read

[tacit ledge]

like they hold up decently well even if they aren't like great

[verbal field]

You WILL run 500000 forges for the blacksmith title

[tired oriole]

the first seasonal acitivity was curse of osiris public event

[thick veldt]

What ever happened to those reprised weapons with special rolls?

[tacit ledge]

I mean it's not like the bar for content in the portal will be extreme considering solo ops are a thing

[tacit ledge]

lie nuke

[tired oriole]

the first seasonal activity was forges 🩷

[thick veldt]

Expert Court of Blades, but it's only Undying Acolyte + Swarm + Ritual.

[tacit ledge]

did they say where exotic missions would go in the portal

[verbal field]

Gambit prime is a seasonal activity

[tacit ledge]

like is the rotator in Pinnacle or fireteam

[verbal field]

Let that sink in

[tired oriole]

is the portal like fortnite roblox

[tacit ledge]

yes

[tired oriole]

lmao

[thick veldt]

No, I'm not, my door is locked, you don't know what that sink has done.

[tired oriole]

unreal engine 5

[civic kettle]

no

it's only ogre boss + fissure ogres + unstop ogres

[thick veldt]

It's all ogre now.

[civic kettle]

real

[tired oriole]

😳

[civic kettle]

or it's only miasma + sharpen + subjugator boss

[tired oriole]

the one where u have to stnd in the circle cor the boss to move

[thick veldt]

Hear me out, Expert Nether, but every single enemy is an Unstoppable Ogre on Galvanized and you can only bring Void.

[tired oriole]

but its darkblades

[verbal field]

Season of arrival public event boss

[tired oriole]

i forget

[civic kettle]

ice room but one of the bosses is lucent wizard

aka it never moves

[thick veldt]

Oh yea, wasn't Season of Arrival's seasonal activity just a public event like Season of the Worthy?

[verbal field]

Yeah but it was peak!!!

It was gambit

[thick veldt]

Gambit.

[tired oriole]

the event was good

worthy and arrivals

good events...

[thick veldt]

God, I miss Titan. Something about the whole location was just amazing.

[verbal field]

It was better than the seraph towers lol

[tired oriole]

seraph towers was bad but not as bad as we remember

[verbal field]

SALVAGE

[thick veldt]

RIP Rasputin.

[tired oriole]

died twice in 2 yesrs lmao

[verbal field]

Salvage was such slop

[thick veldt]

I honestly love the water mechanic.

[tired oriole]

evil bait

[thick veldt]

I got so good at speedrunning through the water that I'd always get there first.

[verbal field]

I ran gotd for the first time since release yesterday and i do not take back anything i've said about it

[tired oriole]

same its honestly a skill gap!!

[thick veldt]

You literally just tap jump and you go faster.

[verbal field]

1-2 traversal is very pretty but a slog fest

[tired oriole]

jumpscare song

[thick veldt]

Also, something people NEVER do is jump before going off a ledge so you fall faster.

[verbal field]

It may be slightly faster but its still slow as hell

[lucid hemlock]

does anyone still need help unlocking the Barrow-Dyad exotic mission?

[tacit ledge]

blah blah blah shut up nerd

[verbal field]

blah blah blah shut up nerd

[tired oriole]

just use standard sentence format

[tacit ledge]

all i do is not chat here for five minutes and suddenly it's 1984

[tired oriole]

its 1965

[thick veldt]

Nah, I'm currently back in the past with Graviton Lance.

[tacit ledge]

forges -> fireteam ops, reckoning -> fireteam ops, menagerie -> flashpoint ops, vex offensive -> fireteam ops, sundial -> flashpoint ops, wrathborn hunts -> solo ops, override -> flashpoint ops, astral alignment -> flashpoint ops

[thick veldt]

I can't believe I actually caught this.

[tired oriole]

wtf you're going to hell

[thick veldt]

As if I wasn't before.

[tired oriole]

LMAO

[tacit ledge]

???? HELLO

[verbal field]

meow

[tired oriole]

stop spamming bro

[tacit ledge]

nightmare containment -> solo ops, savathuns spire -> fireteam ops, altars of summoning -> fireteam ops, the coil -> pinnacle ops (make it difficult bungo), breach executable -> fireteam ops, echoes battlegrounds -> fireteam ops, enigma protocol -> fireteam ops, tomb of elders fireteam ops

nether -> pinnacle ops (please), court of blades -> fireteam ops

[verbal field]

Season of the hunt seasonal activity

[tacit ledge]

Infinite content glitch

[verbal field]

We love wrathborn hunts

[tacit ledge]

what

[tacit ledge]

ok you're saying that like the solo ops they're gonna have are any better

[thick veldt]

I love how this seal looks. The Witness just looks like, "You really wounded me 50+ times?"

[fierce gyro]

He's just disappointed honestly

[verbal field]

Its gotd opening as a seasonal activity

Truly peak

[thick veldt]

For the last time, the Witness uses they/them pronouns, not because they are non-binary, but because they're are a collective of individuals. (Wish I could say the quote properly.)

[fierce gyro]

The only thing I will say to that, is that I have and will continue in the future to even refer to my own mother as "dude"

[thick veldt]

Dude's fine, everyone's a dude.

Just like "guys."

[valid fiber]

Witness is a weird guy

What’s with his head it’s like some sort of cloud or perhaps smoke

[thick veldt]

Was*

[valid fiber]

Is he dead?

[thick veldt]

Very dead.

[valid fiber]

I played the campaign but you never know with these baddies in these games

How many times taniks has died?

[carmine carbon]

dead or alive dont really mean anything in this game

[thick veldt]

I'm still a little ticked off that we didn't try to reason with Oryx's Echo. We could've 100% gotten him on our side.

Like actually, man just wanted to go back home.

[valid fiber]

What’s the eof lore gonna be

[carmine carbon]

especially when bungie can at any moment to pull a marketing trick revive any popular character like they did with cayde

[thick veldt]

The Nine.

[valid fiber]

The nine is the coolest thing in destiny so I’m down for that shame it comes with this cringe unnecessary stat rework

[carmine carbon]

Just look at the whole "the nine killed jfk bs" they just want people to talk. The lore is non sense and nothing mean anything

[thick veldt]

That's not what that lore bit was about. Graviton Lance was found in Old Chicago.

[carmine carbon]

....read it properly

[valid fiber]

Graviton lore already suggested it was weird and time travel-y years ago didn’t it

[carmine carbon]

the implication are that lodi killed jfk with graviton

lodi being pressumed to be the first emmisary aka the nine

[valid fiber]

Who’s lodi

[carmine carbon]

Its the guy with the glasses in the trailer

[valid fiber]

Ngl didn’t watch the trailer

[thick veldt]

That whole thing basically says, "He was killed by an unknown weapon, we could not find this weapon, but it is similar to a project helmed by a military complex."

Nothing says Lodi was the one behind it. Just that they couldn't figure out what weapons was used.

[carmine carbon]

Go back and read the CE lore again you missed the most important bit

[tired oriole]

we kill him in the campaign tbe raid and excision so i think he dead unlike savathun and eramis and nezerec

[unreal niche]

wait d2 can still push out raids?

[tired oriole]

If they coupdnt they would die

[carmine carbon]

There's stille a million way bungie could bring back the witness so it dont matter

[tired oriole]

that would be the end of ot

[unreal niche]

make sense

[thick veldt]

Witness isn't just dead, they split apart and all of their connected minds were unwoven. The Echoes are all that's left of the Witness.

[tired oriole]

is there only 3 echoes

[thick veldt]

Apparently so.

[unreal niche]

whats the new raid?

[tired oriole]

lol

[sour ermine]

we've only seen 3 exit the traveler

[thick veldt]

Well, now there's 2 left, since we destroyed the Echo of Navigation.

[sour ermine]

we know maya still has hers and eramis is no longer in our system

[carmine carbon]

Diddy party

[tired oriole]

you mean that nova bonb didnt destroy the echo in episode w hows

easy block

[sour ermine]

it did not, maya can even be seen in the eof trailer in one of the combat scenes

[ripe glade]

I only wanan hop on destiny 2 to see the big hammer buffs apparently lol. Finally working with one two punch again

[thick veldt]

They're a lot harder to break than you think. We were basically rebuilding Oryx's own sword to destroy it.

[tired oriole]

oooo

[carmine carbon]

It really is DP tho

[tired oriole]

heresy is the only good episode

[thick veldt]

Yes.

[pliant parrot]

new cat launcher revealed

[tired oriole]

revenant was almost there

i like the tonics a lot i think

[thick veldt]

Revenant was okay, and Echoes was confusing. But Heresy is good.

[rich vapor]

Hey, should I claim the seasonal challenges? Or should I leave them alone? Will they allow us to claim the seasonal challenges in the next season?

[thick veldt]

Claim now.

[tired oriole]

Claim mow

[sour ermine]

they will be lost once the season ends

[carmine carbon]

How can heresy be good when 90% of VO are literally absent that bs killed the entire season

[sour ermine]

same as it has always been

[verbal field]

Imagine caring about story

[thick veldt]

Because it's hilarious that Xivu who speaks in all caps is completely silent.

[tired oriole]

thats a main part of the game

[verbal field]

Nope

[rich vapor]

Alright, thank you

[tired oriole]

the missing voice lines did not really take away how good the story was so

[carmine carbon]

Weird how the main budget of each dlc is centered about story then

Wonder why

[tired oriole]

how does he know bungies budget

[verbal field]

Because they're stupid

If i was in charge every dlc would just be raids

[tired oriole]

3 raids per dlc

[verbal field]

👍

[carmine carbon]

And the game would die even faster

[frigid magnet]

It was revealed to him by pete parsons after they kissed

[tired oriole]

no other content

[tired oriole]

awwww

[frigid magnet]

♥️

[carmine carbon]

You clearly dont realize how end game is literally played by the smallest amount of people compared to the main content

[verbal field]

Don't care

[tired oriole]

no i realize

[carmine carbon]

Ye bungie dont care either

[frigid magnet]

🐐

[verbal field]

People who only play for story are stupid

[thick veldt]

If I was in charge of Bungie, I wouldn't buy several luxury cars and politely fire my employees.

[frigid magnet]

Thog don't care

[tired oriole]

be nice

[tired oriole]

W reference

[carmine carbon]

That statement ironically make you look even more stupid but more power to you...

[frigid magnet]

🥰

[tired oriole]

i'm magina tion

[ripe pond]

Atleast give some to ur employees

[verbal field]

If i wanted to experience a good story i would read a book

[thick veldt]

Remove "for story" and the message stays the same.

[frigid magnet]

i magination

[tired oriole]

if i was in charge of billions of dollars i would Pay everyone the same

[carmine carbon]

You probably never read a book in ur life lol

[pliant parrot]

you clearly don't understand the mental illness, greed and sociopathy required to become a CEO

[verbal field]

Yeah true

[thick veldt]

But that's communism.

[tired oriole]

No

its not

[ripe pond]

Imagine if jfk is the raid boss

[thick veldt]

Gets one-shot by Graviton Lance.

[pliant parrot]

that's why no one will ever let you be in charge of billions of dollars

[carmine carbon]

Now that I would get behind

[tired oriole]

i didnt say a large amount

[frigid magnet]

Surface level understanding of communism

[tired oriole]

i said the same

[frigid magnet]

I can say something funny but I'm shy

[verbal field]

The raid boss is just a random big servitor we've never seen

[ripe pond]

With jfk trapped in it

[tired oriole]

shetpicks

prime ultra

[carmine carbon]

Its ok I'd be down for that as well but chat wont allow you anyway

[thick veldt]

Nah, Taniks has been JFK all along.

[ripe pond]

Fighting along side mason and woods

[verbal field]

It's name will be jay efkay

[echo parrot]

Watching a video about "is a boomslang a good pet?" And I question who asks this question

[carmine carbon]

Considering what black ops can get away with bungie can do a lot worst and no one will mind

[ripe pond]

J4Y-3FK4Y

[verbal field]

True

[ripe pond]

Menendez

[thick veldt]

Mendoza.

[verbal field]

You know i just realized we haven't had a random raid boss in a long time

[frigid magnet]

ok

[thick veldt]

You know, I wonder what the raid exotic will be.

[frigid magnet]

just have a raid where the raid boss changes every daily reset

[verbal field]

Some random weapon no one will ever use

[thick veldt]

Hopefully the exotic is a 1961 Lincoln Continental.

[verbal field]

It'd be cool if the raid guns were like, real guns

[ripe pond]

If you had 6 clones of urself in a raid how fast would you finish it

[frigid magnet]

Just a really beat up na miata would be good too

[verbal field]

Worlds first

I'm the best raider

[pliant parrot]

all fun and games until you have to repair something

[thick veldt]

Euphony got its time in the spotlight. Anarchy had a good run. Divinity.

[verbal field]

Euphony never had time in the spotlight lol

[ripe pond]

It’s gonna be that aircraft carrier in the trailer

[verbal field]

Also i mean real guns as in real life weapons

[thick veldt]

Finish a raid and a glock just lands at your feet.

[verbal field]

Hell yeah

[thick veldt]

I just want my heavy sniper with a single round capacity.

Pull out that Serbu BFG 50.

[frigid magnet]

Probably fight xivu arath or sumn

[thick veldt]

Nah, she's likely going to have 0 involvement in Edge of Fate.

[verbal field]

I feel like the theme for a xivu raid would be kinda lame

[thick veldt]

It's all Eliksni and Vex it seems.

[verbal field]

I hated the enviroments in witch queen

[thick veldt]

And we already have 2 Hive raids and 2.5 dungeons.

[verbal field]

Real

Have we had a fallen raid recently?

[thick veldt]

Honestly, it'd be hilarious if Xivu just died int he background.

[thick veldt]

Not since DSC.

[verbal field]

I hope it's fallen then

One of the less annoying enemy types

Imo

[thick veldt]

I'm just hyped for heavy crossbows for no reason other than it means the medieval loadout gets a second type of heavy weapon that's not a sword or an exotic.

[thick veldt]

Nah, that's not an opinion, that's objective fact. Only annoying part of Fallen is the mines.

And maybe servitor immunity.

The normal Taken, however, are probably the most annoying faction. The Dire Taken are great tho and I'm glad they seem to be staying in Edge of Fate.

[sour ermine]

not since dsc, we got vesper as a fallen dungeon but no fallen raid

[verbal field]

Servitors were kinda annoying in atraks day 1 but thats because they camped next to the clones

[sour ermine]

the humble exploding shank that in both DSC and VH has a hilariously big explosion range:

[thick veldt]

Honestly they only kill me when I'm not paying attention. Otherwise they get spawn camped.

[verbal field]

There's exploding shanks in dsc?

[sour ermine]

1st enc when you break a fuse and when you start damage

[verbal field]

Right

I just tank them in a well

[thick veldt]

Bungie should man up and let Skreebs walk on any surface.

[languid kernel]

What does it mean by complete a dungeon gauntlet? For the ro9 triumph

[thick veldt]

And they always try to pick a path that ends up behind you with you seeing them as little as possible.

[verbal field]

So yeah raid should be fallen or like vex

[sour ermine]

they should make screebs not glitch inside stairs first

[thick veldt]

Beat all 3 RotN dungeons on normal difficulty, not Explore. (With the associated quest.)

[sour ermine]

grab new quest from emissary and complete it

[verbal field]

There's no normal its called eternity

🦈

[pliant parrot]

my proph completion on eternity didn't count, so i deleted the quest

[languid kernel]

Oh ok

[pliant parrot]

what even is the reward?

[thick veldt]

Watch it be Dire Taken and we have 3 Taken raids.

[sour ermine]

you need to grab the quest from the emissary for it to count

[verbal field]

Taken and hive are such sleeper enemies fr

[thick veldt]

Normal Taken are the worst enemy faction to face. Dire Taken are real fun.

[verbal field]

I have no clue what dire taken is I'm gonna be honest

[sour ermine]

the ones in the dreadnaught

[thick veldt]

They're the ones on the Dreadnaught.

Like the Knights who pull you to them. The phalanxes that shield enemies instead of booping. Etc.

[verbal field]

What's the difference...

Oh

[thick veldt]

The Thralls drop mines on death instead of constantly teleporting.

[verbal field]

I never noticed

[echo parrot]

Speaking of Vesper's, do you think they'll ever fix its many issues? First encounter still makes me rage so bad

[verbal field]

I only ever die to the dread on the dreadnaught

[verbal field]

Just cheese it with the oob lol!

[echo parrot]

If the nuclear core falls off the map, you have to wipe

[thick veldt]

Honestly, if that giant brig had ~15% less HP, I'd be a happy camper.

[sour ermine]

they barely go back in older raids and dungeons unless there's something heavily benefitting the player so no

[echo parrot]

Riven's cheese

[sour ermine]

wrong, that got fixed, you gotta leave the area so that every enemy respawns

[verbal field]

Random oracle sound added to last wish opening:

[sour ermine]

they fixed it for pantheon

[verbal field]

Revolutionary addition

[thick veldt]

Bong

It's just Riven's doorbell.

[tired oriole]

i love toxic players

[verbal field]

So true

[echo parrot]

I don't wanna be like "wrong" but I couldn't get it to reset when it last happened

[tired oriole]

🌾

[sour ermine]

sometimes you gotta try and do another zone for it to reset

[echo parrot]

Also, genuinely wild how they're just like "yeah, Icebreaker just won't be farmable, lmao"

[verbal field]

Have you tried not dropping the core off the map

[echo parrot]

It's mostly when I'm doing it with randoms and they mess up the jumping

[thick veldt]

Also, can we agree the RoN is a large dungeon and Vesper's is a mini raid?

[sour ermine]

it's criminal that the nuke despawn barrier is either so far down it doesn't matter or it just doesn't exist

[verbal field]

I guess?

Vesper's is still simple enough to be a dungeon imo

[echo parrot]

I argue that GotD was them going "oh, RoN was too easy, we need to remedy this"

[verbal field]

Gotd is just ass in every way

[echo parrot]

It sucks cause it's slow and the bosses are tedious but also the aesthetic and lore is my favorite of the dungeons

Like, wasn't GotD the first time we heard Xivu speak?

[verbal field]

The aesthetic is cool, don't like the generic hive ship parts though

[thick veldt]

We heard her speak in the opening of Season of the Deep.

[echo parrot]

I know season of the Deep was the first time Xivu spoke, I just didn't know if she said anything during first week

[glossy flax]

Hypothetical: Ahamkara could be milked due to being extremely powerful shapeshifters

[thick veldt]

Yea, opening mission she taunts Saint.

Speaking of Ahamkara, Mara has like 15 Ahamkara eggs just chilling.

[echo parrot]

Someone for sure slept with an ahamkara cause shape shifting beings that feed on desire?

[thick veldt]

What they really slept on was Taranis.

[echo parrot]

Yeah, Riven basically made YW adopt them, Mara is just waiting for them to hatch

[verbal field]

Desert perpetual is a cool name

[thick veldt]

The idea of an Ahamkara that basically starves themselves to help people feels like something they could revisit.

[verbal field]

I forgot the expansion was nine themed, a proph like raid would be awesome

[thick veldt]

(Also if those eggs ever hatch, we better get to pet an Ahamkara.)

[echo parrot]

I love how all the other Ahamkaras have fancy titles like Riven of a Thousand Voices, Hefnd, Chimera of Vengeance, then there's just Taranis Rivensmate

Like, his whole identity is Wife Guy

[thick veldt]

And before he was with Riven, he was just Taranis. I'm pretty sure that was by his own choice to reject any other title.

[echo parrot]

Fair enough

Also, since I mentioned Hefnd, I just wanna casually mention that we caused his resurrection by exiling Xivu Arath from her throne world

[thick veldt]

Yep, we woke him up.

[echo parrot]

It's one of the coolest domino effects in this game and I love it

[thick veldt]

Also that and he was another chill-ish Ahamkara if I recall.

[echo parrot]

He made a deal with Warlord Naeem to grant all her people's wishes and she would bear the consequences alone

Also, it's weird to think of how vague the timeline is between collapse and current

[unborn ledge]

I think that's mostly on purpose

Gives some more mystery

[tough sable]

Riven tells us an ahamkara has claimed territory in this region 🐐

[bright grotto]

You can change your region with the /region command. Must be performed in one of the text channels.

[verbal field]

Truth nuke

[thick veldt]

And then Hefnd got all happy when we killed the Scorn inside the castle because we fulfilled Naeem's dying wish too.

[echo parrot]

Like, I thought the age of Warlords was before the age of the city, but Naeem was told by Shaxx where to find Hefnd's bones cause Shaxx was tasked with killing Hefnd during the Great Hunt, but the Great Hunt was, like, right before YW was born

[regal carbon]

Did they remove class items from pale heart chest?

[verbal field]

Siviks was after much more than simply stealing and abusing our forge. His gaze has turned to our most prized possession: a vault, filled with the finest wares the Black Armory has to offer. Our very soul resides in that vault. It must be secured.

[tough sable]

ive patrolled this range a dozen times . id have noticed a dragon

[unborn ledge]

Rip 🥀

[glossy flax]

Pre great hunt makes the most sense, so sometime between the start of The Great Hunt and after the emergence of the Awoken, but after the second Awoken splitting

[thick veldt]

Didn't Shaxx also stop killing Ahamkara after that because he realized they were forces of nature or something?

[echo parrot]

Just a sec

[verbal field]

This is true and real

[thick veldt]

Not in the slightest.

[thick veldt]

Yea, so Shaxx went, "Damn, I kinda regret killing you guys, we can't really blame you for what you do."

[tough sable]

I 💕 warlorss ruin

[thick veldt]

On another tangent, it's weird how you need a Weapon of Sorrow, a special Hive-made bullet to pop a Ghost, a highly complex Cabal cage, or a dedicated Hive ritual to pop a Ghost. But Guardians can do so with their bare hands.

I get that nothing kills a Guardian faster than another Guardian, but it seems like being able to turn a Ghost into a stress ball on a whim is a strange thing for the Traveler to not consider.

[glossy flax]

God Shaxx is a big softie :)

[valid fiber]

is there a godroll discord ?

[thick veldt]

Like at any moment a Guardian could just walk up and pop a Ghost. But it could also be that Hive Ghosts are exposed as they have no shell around their core which just floats freely.

[echo parrot]

Kinda, the timeline is "Taken were leaderless and got attracted to the power they felt in the castle but couldn't find a leader, and their desire slowly fed Hefnd, who then revived the Eliksni house as Scorn, which caused Fikrul to send his agents to investigate why there was suddenly AWOL scorn"

[echo parrot]

I believe the lore answer is "we get a lil help from Light to be able to"

[thick veldt]

I wonder how the Traveler feels about all that. It clearly still picks favorites as it gave the Guardians new variants of Light to wield. Might've just felt that it owed the Hive after the Witness pulled them away.

[echo parrot]

I mean, the only Hive it chose was Savathun, then it became her abusing the ghosts that were looking for a host and force-bonding them with ascendant hive

[thick veldt]

Then why does Immaru have a unique shell and core? Same with all Hive ghosts.

One detail that a shell never changes in our Ghosts is their 'eye'/core. At least not that drastically.

[echo parrot]

The Shell stuff is weird cause I don't think they've ever explained it beyond "it's cosmetic for players and it's so we can tell the difference when there's multiple present" but I imagine it's like a hermit crab, and the Hive, idk, mass produced the shells for it?

[harsh kiln]

what's the use of curio of the nine ? other than manifolds ?

or did bungie just say its only for currency ?

[thick veldt]

Just that.

[echo parrot]

The Ghosts are really just kinda "don't question it" cause there's so many questions I have that I don't think will ever be answered

[harsh kiln]

gotcha, thanks Bigcd !

[echo parrot]

It was just a foreshadowing thing that could be converted to currency

[harsh kiln]

damn thank god

time to waste it all xD

[tired oriole]

yesss

[thick veldt]

Final Shape has a few tiny bit of information. Like for one the Ghosts return to the Traveler just like Lightbearers when they're destroyed.

[echo parrot]

Like, why do all the other ghosts get names but ours is just Ghost, and if a person's ghost dies, can a new ghost pick them again or are they just SOL?

[thick veldt]

So the Ghosts are a part of the traveler, but also indipendant. A good show of that is Ghosts who still follow rogue lightbearers.

[ripe pond]

Is lord of wolves still valuable?

[echo parrot]

It's still solid, yeah

[thick veldt]

I'm not kidding when I say this. But Ghost says at one point that he really does just prefer being called "Ghost."

[echo parrot]

Yeah, all guardians are lightbearers but not all lightbearers are guardians

[ripe pond]

Did they nerf it?

[verbal field]

The light in d2 is literally the same as ether in ff14 fr

[thick veldt]

Imagine how many Hive Lightbearers and Ghosts are seething inside the Traveler.

[echo parrot]

It's following the trope that the Force in Star Wars established, it's just the Space Magic Source and we can't really understand it

[thick veldt]

The Light is mostly explained in its wider details, but the finer points of like what it is are as vague as, "It's always been here."

We know that the Traveler is the avatar of the Light, the Gardener, and the Winnower is its opposite for Darkness.

Light is the physical, Darkness is the metaphysical.

[echo parrot]

Look, all I'm saying is Misraakel better get a ghost after what he's been through

[wide lynx]

he'd have to die first sadly

[thick veldt]

No.

[wide lynx]

yes

[thick veldt]

You do not have to die to get a Ghost. Look at Shin Malphur.

[wide lynx]

are you stupid

[echo parrot]

They nerfed the Hipfire damage a while ago but it's still doing good

[echo parrot]

No, you do have to die, the 3 tenets are Devotion, Bravery, Self-Sacrifice

[ripe pond]

So now u gotta aim it right

[echo parrot]

Aim for the crits

[ripe pond]

Ok

[echo parrot]

It's time to bring out the classic

[thick veldt]

He got a Ghost and the Light, but didn't die beforehand.
