Outlaw is also a very good perk to have on an Eyasluna. I'd probably take it over LiTC.

Outlaw rolls in the Rangefinder slot on Luna, not the LITC slot.

Luna's final slot (where LITC rolls) is mostly good perks, not much trash. You can get Hidden Hand, Icarus, LITC, and Reactive Reload there. I already have a Palindrome with Rangefinder, Rifled, and Icarus :smug:, so I like that my Luna is RF/Rifled/LITC. It's fun.

All xp you get from missions, Quests, and bounties will give progress on the weapons and gear you have equipped. This goes for your subclass as well. Once you have your first subclass fully leveled up, make it a habit to switch to another subclass for xp gains.

If you're planning on creating another character down the line, save whatever Light Level booster the game has provided you. These boosters won't level anything up for you, just allow you to equip higher gear faster.

Do rank rewards just default to coins and motes? I picked an armor one from fwc and didn't get any armor.

I'm level 40 and it wasn't full. I haven't started iron banner quests yet if that matters. It's happened with vanguard rank reward too. The preview option shows a list of gear possibilities but when I pick one it just gives me 4 or 5 motes and coins.

You won't get anything until you hit rank 3.

well I'm sure he can't do better than such choice vanilla dialogue as,

Ghost: This path should lead us straight to the grave.
Ghost: The World's Grave. Not ours.

or

Ghost: So... Think you can kill a god?
Player: Don't think I have a choice.

Where Bungie hosed up is that destiny does't have a grizzled staff sergeant with dark skin cracking hilarious jokes.

Instead we got Nathan Fillion pretending to be a robot dennis the menace. I like the actor well enough but there's too many "insert quip, wait for laughter" deliveries.

Now that you mention it, even some of the writing in Rise of Iron was really, really, REALLY bad. Like anytime your ghost tries to wax nostalgic. I guess we'll all keep playing Destiny for the gameplay.

It doesn't help that the guardians went silent protagonist since the dark below. Your ghost is either talking to himself or one of the vanguard leaders.. not very good options for building dialogue.

I hope the fist or second mission in Destiny 2 is our year 1 guardian walking a group of Vanguard recruits through the tower. We have to introduce them to all the NPC's before a cutscene of an attack on the city. A huge piece of debris falls on top of us, and in our last breath we tell the ghost to pick one of these new recruits to help save the city.

Then we launch into a create a character screen.
