The GI article mentions that the RoI record book is now account-wide, and each reward is delivered in triplicate for each character/class.

...yes...

I hope the quest for the new gjallerhorn involves a lengthy PVP section and waiting for multiple arms days

5 goons firing up a game of rift for shaxxfall, immediately get paired against a 6 man running flawless emblems looking to farm kills. took the game to time but we won by 2k because of good Spark control. also this guy. i'm not sure how you get to the lighthouse by not ionic blinking around corners into high traffic areas.

Destiny, by all rights, should not be the game for you then, but here we are.

The GI article talks a bit about the Gjallarhorn quest, it says it'll be very much like the subclass quests in that there are PVE segments on PVP maps and a no-holds-barred "reward" period that lets you finally cut loose with it.

You fired while he was falling past your crosshair, kick plus lag meant you were aiming at his head when the game decided your bullet landed.

Better be selectable from the director and show up as the daily sometimes.

So if my 320 artifact is the only thing holding me back from getting my light past 331, what's the best way to get one with a higher light?

I think daughters/sisters/whatever the gently caress they are drop class items in the raid. That's a pretty easy section of the raid...I'd go on LFG and try and join a group just for that section on hard mode.

Class item != artifact. Artifacts you can get from the Court of Oryx and it's an easy solo this week if you have an exotic sword.

Actually my fault on the description - artifacts are in the loot table though for Daughters and for Oryx. Court might still be easier, but Daughters is very easy if you have a good group. I wouldn't mess with Hard Oryx with randoms.

Artifacts are not in the loot table for Daughters and artifacts are only in the loot table for Oryx during challenge mode. Doth thou even raid, brother?

Is this a joke? All adept weapons get inherent Last Resort and only Last Resort.

Edit: Also Last Resort is great in Trials.

Switch to FastDraw. The tiny bit of range you get with OEG isn't worth the loss in handling speed on the archetype

A friend got a ADEPT pulse rifle with "Kills against minions of darkness gain more super energy" Instead of Last Resort when we got our lighthouse run so :shrug:

No he didn't.

That's not even a real weapon perk.

That's Inverse Shadow and no adept gun has that.

I mean, maybe Y1 guns did I didn't play then. Are you sure your friend didn't get Bad Juju and mistake it for a Trials gun?

It's a helmet perk though

I think this dude is mistaken but if there was a company that could randomly throw a helmet perk on a gun for one single dude once it would be Bungie.

Yes

Bad Juju has String of Curses which also increases your super but it doesn't say anything about minions and it has a lot of text about reloading.

I'm guessing what happened was his friend got a Trials helm from the lighthouse with IS and he mistook it as his friend reading his gun perk.

It also isn't black and gold and doesn't have the word (ADEPT) on it, which you would think might be a red flag in identifying whether or not a gun is Adept.

This is also possible.

Something I was wondering the other day-the wording is ambiguous on String of Curses. I know that the added damage is part of the proc, but is the increased super, too?

Yes. It was very popular in Y1 when paired with Obsidian Mind. Juju is still the go to super builder primary in PvE content.

Yeah, it's my most used PVE gun normally. I just wasn't sure if the super bonus came on all kills, or only those with string of curses active.
