Wait, can you progress punch/grenade/super kills, TLW chaperone %, and/or 6+ weapon kill rounds for the mountain top quest line in private matches?

Definately shaxxfall stuff. Would need a scrub who hasn't done all the other stuff to weigh in to confirm.

Any time Trickle is included in any modifier set I always make a similar post on here that I hope gains some traction or at least inspires another post that gains traction and winds up somewhere Bungie can see it:

Trickle is the worst modifier in this game and takes away many of the unique things this game was supposed to innovate on. NO, THIS IS NOT ABOUT DIFFICULTY a good challenge is welcomed any day. The issue is that Trickle makes things BORING which in my opinion is worse than if content was just too difficult.

Trickle takes every defining aspect of Destiny's game play and stifles it. We are SUPPOSED to be Space Zombies with God powers, so WHY is there a modifier that instead makes us CoD soldiers with no abilities? HOW is it fun to give us grenades, melees and supers and then say, "well now you can only use them half as much!"

Some people like Trickle, and that's fine, some people also like shoving light bulbs up their asses. The majority of the people I know just tolerate it as a modifier and grab a Monte Carlo or guns with melee and grenade recharge perks, resigned that they have to pigeon-hole their play style (something I thought went against Bungie's philosophy...) in order to get their abilities near-when they are used to getting them. But why do we have to tolerate a lovely, counter-intuitive modifier? I don't get on Destiny to compromise or tolerate lovely game choices, I get on Destiny because I want to have fun playing the mechanics unique to this game and not just any random FPS where you don't have abilities.

Trickle is boring, please remove it as a modifier. Until then I will continue to not participate in any activity that has it for the week, and I will continue to post my "Trickle Sucks" posts until it is removed or the community ties me to a railroad tie, tars & feathers me, and sends me out into the wild.

Same. But Skill Based Match Making instead of Trickle.

While Rifled is BIS, hammer forged is nothing to scoff at. I would keep it. I regularly run a Rangefinder, Hammer Forged, Hidden Hand Byronic Hero.

Urgh, is there a decent way to raise light level while the engrams are decoding into bullshit? Kinda wanted to sneak in some progression before RoI, never did get around to King's Fall

# ? Sep 14, 2016 03:28

Rep Packages, Nightfalls, and POE/COE still drop light-level appropriate loot.

Easiest way would be to run a bunch of CoE and nightfall, pop three of coins at every boss because exotics decrypt higher and make sure you have your rep increaser burning.

Do your shaxxfalls and do the same with crucible rep going. You can get like 4 faction packages of different types in a long session and 3 or 4 exotics if you really want to grind that hard. Plus the end CoE, nightfall lootz.

I pretty much got all three of my dudes to like 335, 332 and 330 the last one I sont have an artifact for. By running CoE and passing off gear to my welfare classes.

Raid would be super quick though if you can find a carry all the challenge modes are active so it'll poo poo high level gear.

Otherwise dont bother, doing the RoI quests will probs get you to 335. So might as well just edge factions and stock up on exotic engrams.

That's odd, all the item managers still have it at 30 and I'm pretty sure they pull that directly as each item is queried.

Finally private matches, only took 3 years for quite literally one of the most basic features in an FPS .

Perhaps by Destiny 3 or 4 we might actually have something that resembles a complete game.

What Bungie could use, is to put some time to rewrite the mapping tools, modeling tools, ... all of the content creation workflow, with the aim to make it easy to generate high quality content.

It seems that with the current tools, they have been building cathedrals with matches. They produce new content at the speed geological changes. For a bussines model where you sell the content you create, if you produce it very slow, you cant really make much money.

They may even create a procedural algorithm to generate weapons from random weapons parts, similar to Borderlands, but with obvious different gameplay. Terrain could also use heighfields or other type of modelling, that make for them cheaper to make bigger maps, more maps.

With all of this, Destiny 2018 would be basically the same game and gameplay of Destiny 2016, but with more maps, more weapons, etc and the same quality. A order of magnitude more of everything, made possible because they created tools to make creating content painless.

I am saying that 90% of everything that made Destiny into Destiny don't need to be rewritten. What they would benefit from a rewrite (imho) are the creation tools.

Anyway everything is expensive, hard and require talent people putting insane hours. And yet time dilate more than anyone want, and a "Destiny 2.0" could get a 2019 release instead of a 2018 release, maybe even a 2020 release. Good, Fast, Pretty, choose two.
