Jesus Christ, I got a second Wings of Sacred Dawn drop in two days. This one was 280 power. Fuuuuuuuuuuck I look good. Also, I have Nameless Midnight and it's outstanding. I just got a more powerful Frontier Justice - if you were me, infuse the latter to make NM better, or keep the Frontier and scrap the Midnight?

Is there a point to redoing adventures? The light reward remains the same... Also going back earlier. Didn't the D1 grimoire outright state Rasputin shot the Traveller in the back before it could leave?

This was on the first sparrow I got. It has completely spoiled me. SLR should be a lot more interesting next time around.

The replay adventures should be at higher light than the initial ones, not sure how that translates to drops. quote:Also going back earlier. Didn't the D1 grimoire outright state Rasputin shot the Traveller in the back before it could leave? The idea that Rasputin shot the traveler comes mostly from the grimoire card Rasputin 5, which once you decode from sci fi computerese is Rasputin examining the conditions under which doing that would be justified. It doesn't say he did it, just that he could and would. There are a bunch of other cards talking about Rasputin's headspace around the time of the Collapse too. You can find references to bits of the R5 decision process elsewhere in the grimoire- YUGA, CARRHAE, VOLUSPA, SKYSHOCK, MIDNIGHT all appear. It's clearly meant to be plausible while still allowing for multiple interpretations and wiggle room which is exactly what's happening in these arguments. haveblue fucked around with this message at 21:07 on Sep 11, 2017 |

haveblue posted:One for every race, pretty much. On Earth you have the unknown Fallen house and the remains of the Cabal. On Titan you have the Hive and Savathun. On Nessus you have the Vex and the lead-in to the raid. On Io you have Quria and Taken shenanigans reminding us how the Vex and the Hive/Taken are connected. And there are all the side stories about race X interacting with race Y and creating a new crisis. And there's the post-credits galactic threat which probably won't show up until Destiny 3. Also the stranger from d1 + her mysterious allies. The Nine.

Vex were still always have been being there, so that's why she cares about them

DreamShipWrecked posted:Was there ever a reason for the Taken to show up? At least for the fallen/vex/hive you are traveling to places where they already were living. For the Taken they jump around space and are normally more directed I thought. Bringing this up from way back in the thread because I noticed something cool. The phalanxes from the Red Legion have fancy new shields that spread out and everything. If you look at the Taken Phalanxes, they still have the shields the old ones used, since Oryx was only around to take the older model. And yeah, they talk about all sorts of Hive looking to usurp Oryx and how they're aimless right now but another 'god' likely one of his sisters will step up to fill the void. Also, I was going crazy because it seemed my sparrow was slower than my friends', despite them all being 160 speed exotics. Turns out that I wasn't just crazy and it actually was slower because I just got one of those xbox elite controllers and had the trigger locks on, but hadn't edited the trigger pull so that it was pulling all the way by the point it was locked to. So I was only getting like 65% speed until I changed controller settings. Now I just have to figure out what 'has more agility in the air' on the sparrow actually translates to in functional terms.

You may have noticed the taken knights and wizards are their old d1 selves too, yet the models have clearly been redone up to new d2 standards instead of being copy pasted ,I like it, it's a nice little touch

Hamelekim posted:I'm calling it now. 100 shards per exotic from Xur. I've been playing what I consider a metric fuckton and I have something like 40 shards. You've made my pleasant purple pile of pointed pellucid pretties feel woefully inadequate. I feel like anything over 50 would be a bit much. I feel one exotic a week from the trader would be a fair pace. Edit: Considering that I had to hit 20 first, a bit higher cost might not be as bad. I still feel that over 50 would be a bit much. d3lness fucked around with this message at 21:35 on Sep 11, 2017 |

Someone at one point said it would be green and up mats from the planets (Blightstone or whatever EDZ's is called). I have a ton cause getting the coins is easy enough so I saved them just in case. If they aren't used for Xur is there any point to them aside from rep and annoying dailies?

One thing I like about D2 is the theme is more rebuilding back to the golden age instead of humanity's last stand. Also after you beat the campaign the farm seems to be processing more refugees, getting them to safety or whatever. Was it like that before the campaign ended? I can't remember. Sometimes it's just PACKED with random dudes

'If you'd trained harder, you would have had the strength to just shoot Ghaul in the face, instead of flopping around on his flight deck like a fish!'Seriously though, that would've been a great fakeout scene. One last surge of effort after the light is ripped from your guardian, to shoot what looks like might've been the main villain in the face, splattering his brains over his dumbfounded soliders... Before someone else gets the reveal.

Drops are personal, you can't ninja loot in this game. That said, he was probably still mad because you got one and he didn't.
