The grimoire card said that he formed a plan and was willing and able to do it but stops short of saying he actually did. It's entirely intentional that what happened is unclear.

Yeah, I guess it's supposed to be energy that was left from when the Traveler was still on Io. Side question, is it just me or is Hard Light super useful in this game? I really like being able to change damage types on the fly, and still stick with whichever subclass I'm in the mood for.

^^ Hard Light is really good, easily the best exotic weapon I've found so far. haveblue posted:The bright white damaging stuff on Nessus is vex goo, the blue stuff shining out of the ground on Io seems to be different. Helpful Exposition Ghost says it's traveler energy during the first story mission on Io iirc. Vatek fucked around with this message at 16:57 on Sep 11, 2017 |

Is there a recommended titan build for Crucible? I really hate how most people can just keep jumping and it becomes really hard to hit them with my Arc/Shield shoulder charger. I'm still learning the maps but it's almost counter productive for me to Super unless I get the ambush on people.

Do the milestones refresh daily? Only have 2 lovely crucible ones so gently caress that.

Remind me of the context of the "choose" line? I remember that that happened but not specifics. I think at the time I wrote it off as a character speculating without necessarily being right (since the game also hammers on the idea that the Traveler has been silent all this time and doesn't ever communicate to anyone).

Around 260 or so I got out of Strikes and ventured into the world aka EDZ. Around 262 I got a pretty legit sword and started to use it. 8 hours later I had yet to run out of power ammo for more than 2-3min max at a time. I've heard power ammo has a super high drop rate at the moment but goddamn I was Kill Billing everything with no repercussions aside from the greedy death now and then. Both yellow colors always drop PA if I'm not mistaken but I was getting 85% PA drop rates, often 2 from one regular mob consistently, and by consistently I mean it never loving stopped. I don't have the perk Tireless Mind perk either nor do I think any perk or mod on my armor/weapons is contributing to the showering of purple boxes. Unless I'm missing something I'd imagine this will be nerfed so do it up while you can. At 273 EDZ reds are 1 shot, dark yellows 2-3, named 10+ but as long as you jump back when they start the animation for whatever their knock back skill is, you're good. I didn't see a single other person using a sword exclusively in that entire 8 hours either.

When Eris was saying something about her queen at the end of TTK she was probably talking about Savathun!!

The whole rasputin/traveller/darkness fight arc shows how Rasputin thought he was actually smarter than the dumb traveller, in fact so much smarter that it he could make a plan to keep it around serving humanity should it ever try and bail. Then he saw the darkness show up and kick everyone's rear end so hard that he said "whoa fuuuuckkkk thisssss." He realized there was a ton more to the universe that he hadn't figured out, so he cancelled all his actions and went into deep hibernation to sort out everything. There's a grimoire card that specifically references his awe of the travelers power (and how much he's learned from it even if he can't duplicate it yet) and how even with all that the darkness rolled it. If something has enough power to nuke the traveller and force Rasputin to completely shrug off his directives, it's extremely bad to try and read between the lines that Rasputin was able to actually puppetmaster the traveler into staying around in the middle of all of it. Also if he crippled the traveller, why would he be impressed by the darkness taking it out?

the traveller actually being a big selfish orb thats mostly concerned with its own survival makes a lot of sense since the traveller is Durandal

Although I did get a big kick out of the Io warmind being named Joyeuse. The Rasputin theory is appealing because it fills in a big gap in the story- why did the Traveler sacrifice itself for Earth when it preferred to run every other time? There is no other offered explanation for this. haveblue fucked around with this message at 17:56 on Sep 11, 2017 |

I was down on Io at first but after spending some time there doing the adventures I've come to like it. The craggy geometry and neat giant trees are cool.

Because otherwise we wouldn't be super special Mary Sue human guardians, duh You have the traveller have a history of running so the player feels that much more special and powerful and chosen and the stakes feel so much more critical

Man, my last 3 exotics have all been the same piece of armor. Kinda annoying. Is there any reason to keep a weaker version of the same exotic around, or do I just turn it into shards?
