Supremacy is dumb and interesting. Forcing people to get together by punishing lone wolves in game with supers create a gameplay that is similar to MOBAs. Players meet other players, and everyone use their superpowers and the team that is still alive reach the rewards. How good you are (or how bad) matter less than how good is the team. Is a incredible dumb game mode, sometimes a single person can wipe the entire enemy team with a uncontested super usage (like a shocklock super). But most times is a clusterfuck. The mindset you need for this game mode is different than most other gamemodes in Destiny. I am starting to attune with it, and it could be fun if you are on the winning team. Winning can be even more oneside than other gamemodes because of the super buildup, and because after wiping a enemy team, they will spawn all around the map, and they will be easy prey for groups until they can get together in a big enough group.

I just got the Sidreal Rumba or whatever from a crucible rank up. It's not even listed on the packs, it's probably my favorite ship in the game so this is awesome.Tei posted:Supremacy is dumb and interesting. I hated it at first but I really like it now. I find there's two ways to really play it. You can either spend it trying to collect crests, or if your team is good at picking them up you can rack up as many kills as you can and rely on your team mates who aren't as good at surviving in firefights to rush in and grab them while you cover them. It seems to be teaching a lot of randoms to group up and at least stay with another person at all times rather than lone wolf it around constantly. Seeing other game modes after this IB is going to be interesting, if any of this sticks.

I just wish they could fix spawns in clash/supremacy modes. If you go in with bros it's easy to sort out "hey we losing, let's group up over here" and salvage the situation. With blueberries there is no communication and once spawns spread all over the map the match snowballs because people keep dying as soon as they spawn. Either do a better job spawning near teammates, or put in some kind of wave mechanic where if several teammates die at once the game syncs up their respawn to drop them in as a group.

Come on.....

Come on... I was not complaining. I find it interesting. If I have to choice something dumb to complain about, It would be footsteps in the snow in the Plaguelands. They sort of match our boots, but not really.

The entire raid is so much easier when your whole fireteam is over 380, and outbreak prime does so much damage to bosses in the raid that we didn't DPS with any other gun. If you haven't gotten it yet, start the quest ASAP. In that vein, what perks do you run on it? I've been running smart drift control and the stability perk, but I'm not sure if hand loaded might be better.

I think explaining the mechanics to one dude and taking like 2-3 attempts on everything past Vosik it was 2.5 hours. That was getting all monitors, clusters, chests etc. Everyone was 370+, one guy 384.

You should all remember this is the easy raid. poo poo will get sweaty again once hard mode is on.

Hard mode completion and some completely new mechanic? Slamming the teleport zones with empowerment? Maybe you have to dunk every square where the boss isn't.  e: bosses DO seem to be more susceptible to great DPS, though. So even in hard mode my hope is that big beefy weapons will result in fewer phases/wipe opportunities.

Hard mode is anti-fun, I'm not sure I can be assed to do it again this time. I can't remember any occasion where I was all 'boy this permadeath sure is entertaining!' in the previous raids.

My team went through with no wipes until Aksis phase 2, where we wiped 4 times. We hit every monitor for a guy and all the hidden chests. It came to like 1h40m at most.

Roman posted:So is High Lord Fixer still good? Got Spray & Play/Rifled Barrel/Hidden Hand? Compared to vendor Palindrome? It's the same archetype as Palindrome and feels pretty interchangeable to me as long as they've both got Rifled Barrel. I've been using one with Outlaw/Rifled Barrel/Icarus and it feels about the same as the vendor Palindrome for the most part. Someone in Bone Krew pointed out that Icarus is sneaky good on hand cannons and after messing with it a bit, I have to agree. Rangefinder is nice since it consistently comes into play but being able to jump around corners/over people and still land headshots is pretty dope.

I threw my hat in for a mid-week raid so hopefully I get to do that poo poo. I want that pulse rifle and those ghost shells.

Any idea on changes to hard mode? For one I bet the arc/solar/null servitors come out and deal massive damage instead of just slowly floating around.

If I remember right the challenge mode just gave you an extra drop of the gear for the mode you were running. texaholic posted:Any idea on changes to hard mode?

My guesses that are absolutely going to be wrong are -Multiple monitors for Vosik -Tighter time for zamboni with more majors -Aksis drains super every time he teleports so you have to use the extra slam for supers, and I don't know, it takes two rounds of servitors to drop his shields, like the last bit of P1

The most obvious: In the shack phase of Aksis 2, there will be something in the center, so people will have to kill shacks from their own spot. The way the whole team get together now make things too easy by creating a cloud of ammo and orbs (if you are playing correctly). No way hard mode will allow that.

I haven't played in a long time and I just came back for this expansion so I'm slowly leveling up. But how does the armsday stuff work? I got the purple pulse rifle package yesterday, do I have to wait until next wednesday before I can get something from it?

The KF challenges were way simpler than anyone expected them to be. The Warpriest was more or less how people had been doing it all along and Oryx was a strat that someone had done as a joke weeks earlier and which turned out to be easier than an orthodox run in some ways. Emron posted:If I remember right the challenge mode just gave you an extra drop of the gear for the mode you were running. Gear drop at max light for that mode, artifact at max light, calcified fragment, emblem, cool meatship if you cleared Oryx challenge on heroic. haveblue fucked around with this message at 15:22 on Oct 6, 2016 |
