Good Hunter, what... what is this post?
Ok so here's something:

if you make an alt, the questlines that lead to you getting mida mini and drang are not available, if you've done them already- they seem to be account based

BUT if you transfer mini/drang over, you'll get the quest that leads to getting mida multi and sturm again. So you can get another chance at high power exotics.

Huh? Those quests are all available on my alt.

I feel like I've had the most amazing luck so far. I now have all but one of the titan exotic armors and I've only got a duplicate once. I guess they're fine with exotics being relatively common so you don't feel bad about using the lovely ones to power up your normal stuff.

MIDA Multi/Mini combo is pure :rice: and I love it.

I got these tonight and I never want to use anything else ever again. Every single drop I get is going to be ground up and smooshed into them.

I’m tempted to spec into as much mobility as my armor can provide just to see how fast I can go

During the ddowntime I wrote a lengthy and pretty boring few paragraphs about the PvP changes specifically no rader for 2 seconds post zoom or while jumping. I just got my MIDA-Multi and it has the radar always on perk. The point of my post was essentially about Activision's involvement and they'll be pushing D2 on the back of what they've helped build for Overwatch with Blizzard. GL with that guys. Either way that one of the many game breaking things that'll need to change, however I logged off right after I got it but I imagine it works exactly the same as it did in D1.

What loadouts are people planning on for the raid tomorrow? I am gonna use the vanguard scout with explosive rounds(nameless sight???) and sunshot for energy weapon. Not entirely certain when it comes to power weapons but leaning towards arc/void because Sunshot will rip any solar dudes. For armor just going with my highest LL stuff, which luckily includes Mask of the Quiet One.

lol i've been playing enough to turn in about a dozen brights or so and I've gotten all of 2 exotic engrams and one purple that turned in to a yellow on decode. They've all been dupes of my preorder coldheart :suicide:

Yeah, everyone has figured it out already too so now quickjoin matches are full of coordinated teams locking down every open space with those drat Multis lol.

There is no way in hell this is going to be an esports game without some drastic overhauls, even though it's fun as hell when all the stars align.

Yeah, I'm thinking something along similar lines, i just got Nameless Midnight and I love it, and my sunshot is high enough level that I won't drop much below my highest light level (although I have a high power coldheart I might run depending on engagement range, or graviton lance). Also just got curtain call which I'm excited to use with the hunter auto-reload. Otherwise, I'm spec-ing my armor for resilience.

As I mentioned in my other post I work in the industry with everyone from org CEOs to devs to players on a daily basis and the only people talking about a D2 esport is Activision. Literally no one cares, the game retains plays mainly through the FPS/Diablo loot + raiding hybrid along with the easy pliability unlike the tier 1 esports. Any org that has the slightly interest in Destiny will get a Quake Champions team first. The only this going for them is having access to the godawful Overwatch fanchises and new broadcast studios around the globe.

Yeah, my finishing exotic was coldheart, like I said. Free shards I guess at least. I want to dual wield them. Bungie get at me, hell at least let me halo it up with dual sidearms, smg, and hand cannons!

Intelligent and bright, they explored a world that was new and strange to them. They liked it, they thought - a whole world just for them! They were dimly aware that a God had created them, was watching them; they called out to him, thanking him in a chittering language, before running off.

Rumor has it if you want legs from an exotic drop put exotic legs on when you go to decrypt.

I tried it yesterday and it worked x2 so your mileage may vary but if youre getting doubles and triples of exotics try taking them off.

Nightfall was crazy easy this week, much easier than the normal strike with the burns. My team had a full wipe twice and lost about a minute of time, missed most of the rings, and finished the boss at 5:08. We could've easily gained 2-3 minutes.

Thks actually kind of makes sense. The smart loot system is designed to make it easier to raise yoir light level, so giving you an exotic in the slot you already have occupied by an exotic means yoi can equip.it right away without juggling stuff around and maybe losing LL overall.
