My office is in the front room of a run-down 12 megapixel sensor but the rent suits me and the landlord doesn't ask many questions.

What is it about that strike specifically that draws these idiots. Had this exact experience, he moved and shot just enough to prevent getting kicked, ended with like 4 kills.

It's happened like two or three times on that strike :effort:

I generally don't really give a poo poo about garbage tier players, but the ones who move the stick just enough to avoid getting booted are pretty annoying.

When we loaded into the next strike, he immediately walked forward into a nearby wall and continued running in place while we went to orbit.

I ran into a dude idling through the level 41 prison last week. Me and the other guy just two manned it up to the boss but it rolled the cabal guy and the other actual player just left. So I spent my time dancing and reviving the AFK guy to ruin his sweet rep gains. He eventually came back and I made him kill the boss all by himself.

That's a really good roll. I got my eyasluna with almost full stability and it can get head shots very consistently. Do you really need all that range though on a hand cannon? You already got range finder but is rifled barrel necessary at the cost of reload speed? What's the point of having the range of a sniper rifle when you have the zoom of an auto rifle? I would go with better reload speed over range in my opinion.

The range stat in Destiny is extremely important for a couple of reasons. #1 range ties into how strong the AA is. #2 range indicates how fast the damage fall off happens and in a hand cannon you want a poo poo ton of it to stay out of shotgun range. #3 Range lessens the intensity of ghosting bullets in handcannons, bungie's silly hidden RNG accuracy stat for handcannons.

If your hand cannon doesn't have Rifled or to a lesser degree Hammerforged or smallbore, its garbage.

I accidentally LFGed into one of these groups once, they were a bunch of gigantic fuckwads.

A kid who was about 17 or so also got pulled in but didnt have the right guns and they just gave him a gigantic hard time for the totems and the Warpriest. He bailed and they were all furious that he dared drop out despite them having given him poo poo for the last 40 mins or so. I grabbed the next CP and bailed also, lifes to short to deal with grown men acting like pissy jerks

I love playing strikes or PoE with pubbie fuckwits. Getting more kills than the both of them, making four or five times as many orbs, and taking care of all the objectives. It onyl really gets annoying when you overcommit, die, and then wipe becasue the pubbies don't understand the difference between Destroy Mines or Dismantle Mines.

on that note I got an eyasluna with sureshot is and my choice of hammer/smallbore, but then surrounded and third eye for the other perks. Obviously it's not super great, but probably not super terrible I think. Think it's worth taking into crucible or would I just get a headache from getting poo poo on?

It'll do okay mostly because it's an Eyasluna. Best one I've pulled is Sureshot, Outlaw, Army of One and my choice of HF or Smallbore. I went with smallbore and it still does quite well compared to my RF, HH, Rifled Byronic. Eyasluna is just good in general so long as you aren't sacking range.

I don't know. Skating itself, no. Control felt like it had more height and less horizontal zip to me when I came back, but I hadn't played in a long time so :shrug:

Weird though, I noticed it immediately, nothing on my Warlock or Hunter stood out as unusual.

Bungie eventually made some post asking for video proof, so I guess there were a lot of reports? I didn't realize it was a Thing online because I noticed it before I even read anyone online commenting on it.

I love bugs. In The Division there was a bug to do he strikes with 12 people at the same time. Bugs of that type will be wellcome. Bugs where a whole instance crash and we are sent to orbit when a hive is giving us a blowjob, not so much. More bugs please. Magical mites. Whatever are called these days.
