I completed Light fall on PS and have a ton of resources with no idea on how to use them, could use any advice

ancient violet
#

Well, that depends on what you mean by resources. There are a few paths. First i would suggest if you like pve to start with harder content

#

Try some higher nightfall strikes

#

Get the best armor and weapons you can

#

Watch videos on builds and find a build you like.

#

Watch videos on how to do dungeons and raids. They have the best gear but are also marginally harder and require teamwork(mostly)

I have, felt like I was a 3rd wheel, does not seem as though my weapon are good enough for nightfall, I have watched a few, they seem to mention thigs I just dont have

ancient violet
#

I can think of a few good early game weapons you can get right off the bat. My first suggestion is to run regular strikes to get a hothead.

#

I could defiantly benefit frim better toys and armor, not sure on how to utilize what I have currently

ancient violet
#

Its from zavala, you need 2 of his engrams to focus it and all you gotta do is grind strikes for a while and get the best roll

#

Next is getting a good riptide. Run pvp for a while, to get the riptide fusion from shaxx. You’re looking for the chillclip perk

#

Those are 2 of the best weapons.

#

You dont really need to worry about armor yet. You’ll have bad armor for a little while until you get into dungeons

It felt like target practice, where someone handed me a piece of paper with circles on it and just hold this for me

ancient violet
#

Id also love to help you out so feel free to send me a dm and i can help you grind out some stuff. I play a lot so i think i could really help you answer all of your questions

#

And get you good stuff

#

sounds great, this is one of my sons graduation weekend so it will be limited time for me, but for sure next weekend I can hit you up

ancient violet
#

Hi, I’m an older player and play with my sons (they got me into this to help with arthritis hands and keep mind active) so my dm is always open if you have questions or need someone to help. Have a few good sites for you to take a look at etc..if you would like me to dm them to you, just let me know 🙂🐨

that would be awesome, I read some of these posts and have no idea what they are saying, my kids tey to keep it in a language I understand without keeping urban dictionary or google translate for senior citizens open

ancient sparrow
#

Lol, will do, I’ve often goggled things, my sons said l should start a “oldies but goodies discord” in our language. My sons have often laughed when l ask, what does such n such mean.

ancient violet
#

Fallout has a few youtube shorts that explain destiny language

#

I certainly understand. destiny players always make up weird names for stuff

ancient sparrow
#

It’s also all the acronyms used in here lol

ancient violet
#

Yeah i get confused sometimes too. Like using votd instead of vow when referring to vow of the disciple

magic fossil
#

paint me confused, not sure what either of those are

#

is holy water involved

ancient violet
#

I wish. Its a somewhat difficult raid but its got really good loot.

magic fossil
#

I am almost at 1800, but still think my toys are under par except Thunderlord, but runs out of ammo, and got a trace rifle yesterday

ancient violet
#

Yeah, thunderlord is good but you really need the catalyst for it to be really good dps.

#

Do you have the catalyst for it?

magic fossil
#

I was just reading about how to get it, one of these posts must be right

#

I mean no, not yet

#

still need to get Gjallarhorn and its catalyst, defiantly need help there

#

hoping to do that next weekend, how long does it take?

ancient violet
#

Gjallarhorn is pretty easy to get

#

Catalyst is also pretty easy but it means doing a dungeon. I can help with that though

ancient sparrow
#

I’d be happy to run it with you also
