I see that happen with other players all the time, run up on an exchange with a Titan teleporting four paces ahead on melee strike. Meanwhile, I punch some oval office right on top of me and get that unmistakable confirmation sound yet no damage done and :rip: me.

Yep, a couple weeks ago. You killed me repeatedly and kindly waved :unsmith: while I killed no-one and went 0.33 or something lol My connection sucks, geographic limitation, and is like 65% of the time green and 35% not but it was especially garbage that night, yes.

I can feel out real well when my connection is causing fuckery. Like, that game was completely me not having used an auto rifle or Warlock in months. But in general that stuff happens when I'm firmly in the green as well or even when playing at my girl's who has an amazing connection, not just when I'm yellow or red. Sometimes it's me, tho, for sure.

I'm doing the outbreak prime poo poo so when we do Wrath again its gonna be a normal one, I'll send you a message so you can get hands on practice.

Sounds good! Outbreak Prime is the raid gun from Wrath, yeah? That thing looks cool as hell.

Hit 390 thanks to you guys. Got into a CE group, did a full clear with both challenges. Walked out with:

Necro finished
394 Abyss Defiant (adept)
394 Oversoul Edict (adept)
395 Light of the Abyss
396 Song of Ir Yut
395 Helm
394 Gloves

So I'd say successful run. Quickly wandered over to Archon's Forge and oh look, 398 cloak and a 395 ghost. I'm now 394 light. :D

Still my favorite example of "gently caress this games netcode is a piece of poo poo".

In other news I'm having my worst week of trials yet. The sticky/icebreaker/sidearm meta really is not my thing.

And the games are very sweaty. Either they changed the Trials match making or nothing but sweats play anymore. Maybe both. Who knows.

Just did a card got to seven wins. our 3rd was no bueno made it hard. Some oval office kept sticking me in the first game meaning I went 5-5 because he was too poo poo to anything but throw a sticky and get murdered.

I remember when I used to get outplayed, I swear 90% of the time I die now it's because of bullshit mechanics, if it's not lag its some oval office throwing a sticky in my postcode and getting a lucky frag. I'm typing this as I tick over 5 minutes in match making for control. 9/12 gg bungie.

Speaking of sidearms, some of them outshoot me when I'm using TLW. Do I just suck with TLW (most likely) or is there more to it?

Sidearms aren't really subject to ghosting nearly as bad as hand cannons, especially TLW.

With any plus impact barrel it will turn it's optimal TTK into all body shots.

It's cool but because many sidearm engagements happen outside of optimal range it's not that cool.

However, if you get one with Linear comp, reinforced barrel and rangefinder, it has absolutely nuts max range. Linear comp counteracts the stability decrease from reinforced.

I cant remember getting outshot 1v1 with full health by a sidearm but you will lose if you're weaker because of ghost bullets.

Teamshots can be especially nasty in close areas.

hosed around with auto rifles a little bit yesterday used genesis chain, a god roll 0 day dilemma and monte carlo accross 4 games. Didn't posy below a 1.4 using it.

Not bad still get three tapped by lunas and dromes but its surprisingly good against scounts and pulses. Theyre really good in the air and for clean up kills.

I dont think they'd be viable in competitive play but not bad for 6s.

Because destiny's information display sucks massive rear end and there's a ton of significant digits under the hood that get lost in translation.

I just went into patrol and used mine that has CQB and Linear comp and got right up an acolyte's butthole and tested headshots. 6899 with CQB and 7215 with Linear comp. impact definitely changes.

What those stupid bars don't tell you though is that it fires slower than a Wormwood.

If it fired just as fast it would be the most OP poo poo in the game. Which is a shame cuz i have a decent crows eye in the vault
