Haven’t properly played since WQ dropped and before I previously uninstalled I basically cleared my vault except for PvP god rolls.

#

What weapons should I be farming/keeping for PvE?

#

What weapons should I be farming for and what rolls should I be looking out for? I’ve seen that The Supremacy is now good for some bosses and Riptide for champs but what else should I be focusing?

simple mulch
#

apex predator

modern wadi
#

Last wish right? What roll am I looking for?

simple mulch
#

reconstruction bait and switch

modern wadi
#

Okay what else?

supple socket
# modern wadi Okay what else?

izanagi, heritage, nessa's oblation, edge transit (obviously when it drops), forbearance (ITL one will be on par if not better), succession

blissful totem
modern wadi
#

Is Golden Tricon/Unrelenting a good Forebearance?

blissful totem
#

recon or subsistence, killing tally

modern wadi
supple socket
#

why waste more time trying to get something that is significantly worse

#

@modern wadi just do the riven's wishes quests and get apex 😭

blissful totem
modern wadi
#

Yeah my red border drop rate is non existent

simple mulch
#

Cataclysmic is pretty mid now

modern wadi
supple socket
#

cataclysmic is not worse going out of your way for anymore

blissful totem
#

you get 2 free a week

I’d go for a briars personally

or doomed petitioner

simple mulch
# modern wadi How?

Red boarder challenge during the raid and you can buy a free red boarder at the end of the raid

modern wadi
blissful totem
# modern wadi How?

you get 1 free from the run and can unlock a 2nd red border from doing a red challenge during the run
lfg's say they're going for red too

modern wadi
#

Also very useful for my solar radiant builds

blissful totem
#

or if it's an old raid like last wish there's a hawthorne quest

supple socket
supple socket
modern wadi
#

Yeah I’m working on getting apex too

blissful totem
#

woo

modern wadi
#

Can only do one LW this week

supple socket
#

I would just stop focusing on cataclysmic

modern wadi
#

Okay

blissful totem
#

and forbearance you can get after into the light

modern wadi
#

And chain reaction with ambitious for forebearance

blissful totem
#

focus on apex and commemoration/succession

modern wadi
#

Okay but isn’t the raid perk better?

blissful totem
#

and exotics i guess

modern wadi
#

Succession and commemoration are both solely from dsc right?

supple socket
blissful totem
#

ye

modern wadi
#

I have like all exotics except the new dungeon and raid ones

blissful totem
#

good

#

trinity ghoul and sunshot are dummy cracked

modern wadi
#

Okay so we do dsc and LW and hope one of them is rotator this coming week

#

What rolls do I want for succession and commemoration ?

blissful totem
#

recon vorpal, recon/subsist killing tally

modern wadi
#

LW and DSC won’t be on rotation for a few weeks apparently so I just go for the 1 per char per week I guess

supple socket
#

unless you still need heritage

modern wadi
#

I don’t have heritage either

blissful totem
#

eh, that's shotguns. slug is good if you like using those, but that's up to you

modern wadi
#

I literally only kept PvP weapons in my vault. So majority are sunset or they are snapshot, quick draw, outlaw, etc rolls

#

What about autos? I have the ammit with ambitious and incan as well as one with dsr and adaptive munitions which helps me great in LSs

simple mulch
#

autos for pvp

blissful totem
#

ammit is good, and rufus fury which for some reason has 10000000 stability

modern wadi
simple mulch
#

depends on what boss/raid i'm doing

modern wadi
#

Okay fair enough 😂

#

Do you have dim loadouts saved? Could you share a couple so I can get an idea?

blissful totem
#

honestly it just depends

#

lost sector says what the champs are and what element is surge. so you use that

#

you can't just like "give me a loadout" rotators lol
today's LLS is barrier/ustop solar surge
barrier is arby/wish ender, ustop is bow/hc/sunshot. solar rocket.

modern wadi
#

Okay so for today being solar surge I could run riptide and heliocentric and be fine

#

Wait chill clip is for overload

blissful totem
#

chill can kinda do ustops

modern wadi
#

Okay so arby with a HC

blissful totem
#

the kf zaoli's is cracked

modern wadi
#

I haven’t done a kingsfall yet

blissful totem
#

you can double damage perk

modern wadi
#

I need to get pyrogales today so looks like arby hc will be my go to

#

Or bow hc gally

supple socket
#

Just get every exotic you don't have from vex incursions on neomuna and focus for the rolls you want at rahool

rugged eagle
#

best titan exotic, I'd say it's buff is solely for lost sectors

modern wadi
#

Lost sector I can do in 5-10 minutes depending on the day and I’m guaranteed to get a certain slot.

#

You’re telling me it’s better to spend that same time doing the vex incursions then MORE time doing GMs to get ascendant shards. 🤡

supple socket
supple socket
#

you are not guaranteed to get an exotic to drop regardless of difficulty

#

so that 5-10 min will get really tedious when you've spent 4 hours doing lost sectors only to get MAYBE 3 exotics if you're lucky

#

I'd much rather unlock every exotic and then focus for the rolls I want than spend 3 hours doing 2 min runs for an exotic every 30 runs 💀

#

and gms aren't even that hard to farm, and they're definitely not the only source of shards rn, coil is a much more forgiving and lucrative source for shards

wraith geyser
#

Absolutely incorrect drop rate is 25%ish i have so far never ever gone more than 3 runs without any exotics, and farmed all my exotics from lost sectors plus you start getting 2mins on easier ones

supple socket
#

that doesn't mean there's some pity system that guarantees them after 4 runs

#

and just because the drop rate is 25% doesn't mean that its worth it still, you still have to deal even more rng on top of just not getting the rolls you want from rng,

#

AND rng of just not getting the exotic you want, where as with focusing, its extremely easy to get 2 shards and focus for what exotic you want specifically

modern wadi
#

Okay “it’s extremely easy to get 2 shards”. How. I have run many coils and gotten barely any. Not able to do GMs as with my light right now they take 40minutes to an hour.

#

So if you’re so right. Tell me how. If shards are sooooo easy to get as you say they are, then yes focusing would be more efficient.

modern wadi
simple mulch
#

get them from rahool

#

and the season pass

#

and the vendors give shards

modern wadi
#

How many do you get from the pass? 6? I don’t have enough prisms and the other one for shards

#

Getting shards from vendors require constant bounty’s and what not.

#

What we’re arguing about is whether it’s more efficient to get exotics from lost sectors or by doing the vex incursions to unlock every exotic then focusing specific armor

#

If I have to complete bounties to max vendor ranks multiples times to get shards enough shards or do GMs AS well as vex incursions

#

There’s no way that’s more efficient than just farming 5 minute lost sectors with a 25% drop chance. I usually get one every 3-4 runs. So an exotic every 20 or so minutes

simple mulch
#

do explain why you need so many golfballs

modern wadi
#

I don’t. But old mate is trying to say that focusing specific sectors at rahool is better than running lost sectors. You need 2 golf balls everytime you focus an exotic at rahool

#

This is why it’s important to not join mid conversation without reading the entire conversation:)

simple mulch
#

ok new player

modern wadi
#

(I also need more golf balls full stop as I need to properly set up my warlock and titan with MW gear)

simple mulch
#

question what the experienced are saying makes sense

modern wadi
supple socket
#

why tf are you trying to be so hostile man like we're just trying to give advice and you're over here being an ass about advice you just don't like 💀

modern wadi
#

Bro

modern wadi
supple socket
#

yes bro 💀

modern wadi
#

I literally said Tell me how to do it and I will try it

supple socket
#

I know, I can read

#

you just do coil

modern wadi
#

And? Are you going to tell me how?

supple socket
#

you get plat, you easily get like 2 shards per run

#

thats a pretty free 18 min run

simple mulch
#

if you need someone to explain how to get rewards from an activity ur pretty stupid

modern wadi
#

You’re doing 18 minute plat coils?

supple socket
#

compared to the idk, 20+ runs you'd have to get to get a decent roll on a semi random exotic from a lost sector

supple socket
#

or

modern wadi
#

If you’re doing 18 minute plat coils teach me how the f because mine take 40 minutes to do all 4 pathways

simple mulch
supple socket
#

you can stop worrying about getting good rolls, because quite frankly they mean nothing in pve, and focus on getting to power/pinnacle cap and getting good weapons and actually getting the exotic armor first 💀

#

Like I promise you, getting 2x 100 can be easily achieved without a good exotic roll

#

and 3x 100 is pretty unnecessary

modern wadi
#

Okay? Im at 1800 already but I play like 1 maybe 2 afternoons a week so grinding every single pinnacle activity I couldn’t really care less about. I get pinnacle as I do.

#

How do you run 18 minute coils?

supple socket
#

you just do coil

#

idrk how else to tell you, I've never gotten anything slower than 20

simple mulch
#

and maybe get to pinni cap as well

supple socket
#

💀

modern wadi
#

10/10 great help. “Hey how do I do this” “you just do it”

#

Great community person wow 10/10

supple socket
#

there is literally nothing special about an 18 min run

simple mulch
supple socket
#

you just do the activity, there is no special strat, no special loadout, you just do it

simple mulch
#

go to the helm and press on the coil activity node

supple socket
simple mulch
#

i was about to say that

modern wadi
#

I literally just don’t get how you can do all 4 pathways and get a platinum score in 18 minutes. Like that just doesn’t seem physically possible.

supple socket
#

ok

supple socket
#

yikes

simple mulch
#

get a load of this guy

#

to answer whatever you said, i say skill issue because you can't do it even tho it's very easily doable

#

just not something you can do

modern wadi
#

Alternatively, you could actually be helpful

#

Just because it’s very easily doable for you doesn’t mean it’s very easily doable for everyone

supple socket
#

very easily doable would imply that anyone and everyone can easily do it

#

:)

modern wadi
#

Not necessarily because how is it supposed to be easy for someone if they don’t even know how to do it?

supple socket
#

that's different

modern wadi
#

You could say driving a car is easy. But if someone doesn’t know how to drive a car then it’s not easy for them

supple socket
#

what he means is, even if you don't know how to do it, its still easy

modern wadi
#

So tell me how to do it

#

How do you kill everything so fast. How do you kill each of the 4 bosses so fast

#

Even in a 3 stack the final boss of the fourth pathway takes us 10 minutes alone

simple mulch
#

are you 1810

modern wadi
#

I am 1805 without artifact. 5 power should not make that much of a difference

simple mulch
#

it kind of does

#

what's the build that you use then

modern wadi
#

Usually sunshot sunbraces and spam grenades

#

Or Polaris lance

simple mulch
#

then what are your teammates running

#

and the answer has to be strand titan

modern wadi
#

1 is my mate that also runs sunshot and lorely or will run bubble. He doesn’t have strand unlocked yet. The 3rd is usually a random unless we 2 man it

simple mulch
#

and then you also use your strand titan

modern wadi
#

Okay so strand titan

#

What’s special about out strand titan

simple mulch
#

that's how i do sub 20 runs

simple mulch
modern wadi
#

Okay we’ll get strand tonight and we have 7 weeks to farm coil. What build do you use? Like fragments

simple mulch
#

i'm not big on buildcrafting, but i use thread of binding, continuity, transmution, and generation with synthoceps

#

and then into the fray and bow as my aspects

modern wadi
#

Awesome. And I assume weapons don’t matter. Does exotic armor matter?

simple mulch
#

you would mainly want a 12p shotty and synthoceps

modern wadi
#

For the boss I assume?

simple mulch
#

for anything that moves

modern wadi
#

Sudden death with 12p and repulsor is the only 12p I have

simple mulch
#

go farm dares or crota for a better 12p

modern wadi
#

I take that back I have a wasteland with 12p and subsistence

#

I haven’t even done a crota yet. Got half way through second encounter

blissful totem
modern wadi
#

yeah i tried but we got to 2nd encounter

thick olive
#

How did this get so toxic 😭

modern wadi
#

people deciding to call an activity "easy" whilst refusing to help someone get better at it

shut igloo
#

Crota sucks just get an ikelos sg

If it hasn’t been said briars contempt (Root of Nightmares Linear) with reconstruction or rewind rounds with surrounded

#

Funniest destiny gimmick name "person"

#

You get a free Bungie name change today you better use it

modern wadi
#

Both running 12p with one on tractor cannon and the other on gally. We’re literally breezing through every encounter but I genuinely can’t see how we can get down to 20 minutes.

#

We literally zoom through every pathway and one phase each boss in under a minute.

#

We’re averaging 6 minutes per pathway and then final boss takes us about 5-6 minutes. Usually from running out of ammo.

#

What are we taking too long on? So far the encounters that take us the longest are specifically the final boss and the LW Ogre encounter area.

#

Each taking us about 5 minutes themselves

#

Where does bro mention lfrs in this essay

simple mulch
#

Bro is lost

modern wadi
#

I just replied to whatever your most recent message was to tag you

restive wyvern
#

Its rly not clear what ur talking about ngl

#

Rivens lair?

#

Ur trying to duo speedrun rivens lair?

#

How does that relate to lfrs or the original post?

simple mulch
#

Yeah I still don’t know what bro is trying to tell me

modern wadi
#

The coil

#

Like the entire argument that happened above between you and that other dude claiming you can get 18 minute coil runs and it’s the fastest way to farm ascendant shards

modern wadi
simple mulch
#

I never said linears

#

I said I used banner of war

restive wyvern
#

Coil is a very good alloy farm

#

Ok shard farm it just depends if the gm that week is faster

modern wadi
simple mulch
modern wadi
#

where did i say linears?

simple mulch
#

u responded to me asking when you will ever use lfrs

modern wadi
#

that was literally just to get your attention

simple mulch
#

you're just rtdd for that

modern wadi
#

anyway can you answer or not

simple mulch
#

@me you clown

simple mulch
modern wadi
#

@simple mulch

simple mulch
#

baby learned his first words

modern wadi
#

so i ask for help to get my time down and you call me rtdd wow how nice and helpful of you

simple mulch
#

skill is also a big part of it which you don't have

#

can't help with that

modern wadi
#

its not a skill thing

#

I am literally breezing through every encounter with ease

#

the only way I can see you getting sub 20 minute runs is by skipping areas or not getting plat

simple mulch

sure u are bud
