Sometimes, in a city this dirty, you need a real hero.
I just finished the taken King main story (well there seem to be a few extra quests to complete now though) and thought I'd mix it up a bit by hitting the strike Playlist thing.

I chose the taken King ones and played through a few but fit some reason the blue drops never seemed to rise above 245 despite my light being 299.

I'm sure I read something that said drops are just around about where your light level is so you're always slowly ticking up to 400. Is there something in missing? My level is kinda boosted by a couple of level 350 items I got from vendors.

Also I just noticed there are raids, they don't use the matchmaking like strikes do they?

Play the level of strikes below heroics until you're closer to 350 and the jump into the heroic strike playlist. No matchmaking for raids because that would loving miserable.

Why are people consistently bad at Fallen S.A.B.E.R.? All you have to do to start it is defend a warsat, just stay in the loving ring! But oh no, first sign of trouble and they run to the hills (literally) and we get hosed because I'm the only one defending the damned thing so the counter goes up super slow and we get overwhelmed.

The bolts do 50 damage, right? I think it's still possible for certain builds to reach 212 hp so yes there are edge cases where it won't kill.

What strikes are those? I'm kinda struggling to get to grips with all the new stuff as the game doesn't really explain it at all.

Hell, I just realised that there are 5 shortcuts on the bottom left of the destination map for missions that earn you emblems.

Do you have Rise of Iron? If you only have TTK you don't get higher light blues...

Yeah I picked up the collection. I take it I should just plough straight into the rise of iron content then?

For some reason I just assumed that the drop levels would just be adjusted for the whole game, like if I kept hitting the older content, drops would still keep coming down at my current light level.

It definitely felt that way during the base content/house of wolves stuff before I hit level 40.

What the gently caress do Grenadier Guards have to do with.... :psyboom:

Heavy, but more so? HEAVIER? Like, you have a word then you take a letter off at the end and add IER to denote what it is and how much compared to an established standard? And that never ever changes the pronunciation of the root word, because why would it? So GRENADE but more than the established amount would be GRENADE-IER? No?

Okay, explain.

Nobody pronounces it "Grenade-ier". For one, that sounds stupid as gently caress and second it would imply that the word "Grenadiest" exists.

Grenadier: a soldier armed with grenades or a grenade launcher.

The Grenadier perk is designed to refill your grenade charge faster, so you can be a "gren-uhhh-deer".
