Good Hunter, what... what is this post?
New ghosts for all the dumb losers like me who care about lore:

-Dedgen Yor's real identity revealed Rasheed Walrus Rezyl Azir
-more about the scrubs that are following Yor
-Shaxx lost a bet to Cayde and had to teach some kids how to play dodgeball. It's amazing
-all the fallen houses on all the planets are in retreat (not reflected in game). Set up for D2?
-Eris plans on leaving the tower. Introduces a new character who has his arm replaced by a Vex arm and his ghost all vexified. Probably references the new VoG gear but maybe he'll be a character in D2 since he got a name.
-Cayde googles himself + his google search history. It's amazing.
-someone (the awoken prince douchebag?) let himself get captured by the house of kings and meets their kell, and then the kell bows to him + some hints that the queen is still around in some way?

Abyss: telesto or zhalo, long range heavy to deal with the knights and ogres at the end. Swords help with most of the other phases, especially if you want to do the deathsinger challenge. Gjallarhorn for dropping Crota, sniper for dealing with platform knights and oversoul.

Telesto owns in abyss. Also warlocks do yourself a favor and spec for shnsjnger explosive melee that makes orbs for this part. You can wipe entire packs with one melee and refill everyone's super.

After the abyss and bridge:

Raze Lighter is back in a big way for Deathsinger. One uppercut and a swipe should do the knights.

Wotm Sniper will one shot boomers. Same with Spindle and Event Horizon.

Explosive round scout is always good.

Gjally for crota shield.

Shaxx playing Dodgeball had me rolling and brought a little tear to my eye at the end. Cayde Googling himself was also amazing.

Wounded Unicorn/Waffle House's Loretheories for D2:

1) Cabal attack Earth directly
2) "Heretic" Trinary Star Cult (or whatever they are) starts showing more face
3) Fallen Houses in Sol system perhaps united under a more common banner. Maybe they'll even be allies after a fashion?!????? (Fun poo poo: Go to the Moon on Archer's Line, and look at the Fallen House banner that's just inside the door of the chinese Mass Accelerator; it's the same pattern as Cloak of Taniks, who has no house.
4) The Vex patient might be Praedyth, which would be cool if he was the Vex version of Eris.

I've done the Crota challenge a couple of times now and my big tip for it is Start with an invis Bladedancer, a good swordbearer can get 8hits in which is just above half of his health remaining. Gives a lot more wiggle room for error.

You will want a defender or 2 with helm of st 14. It gets pretty busy at stages.

I run zhalo on abyss, with a sniper and machine gun and then change to juju for plates.

Change to gjally for shrieker.

Death singer you should have 2 sword the rest rocket launchers or you wont be able to do challenge.

Oversoul can be dropped by celestial golden gun. Everyone else rockets and snipers.

Death singer challenge is a little tough both sides need to be pretty efficent the only major issue can be that the wizards can bug out and get stuck and wont come out or a knight or thrall will glitch around and you'll have to orbit to fix it.

Bring synths.

:eyepop: that's a good top tip, I was getting 6-7 in last night pretty consistently. Turns out farming the Crota-fanboy on the dreadnaught months ago with pubs was great practice.

Also drat Crota owns when you're the swordbearer

That explains the countdown timer being just shy of the D2 projected release date. Think that's just Destiny Public Beta Date, or will we get a closing event?

I know the saying goes that anything is good in PvE, but ER scouts really do tear poo poo up. My favorite primary is a Badger CCL with OAS/Zen/ER. Got a Handjob of Judgment recently with TrueSight/PB/ER/Triple Tap, it's also cool and good. Before those, Burning Eye was my jam.
