From a couple of pages back, didn't seem to get answered. You talking about in trials? Because there is a final vendor if you do get flawless.

If I start a new character & dump some high level stuff on them, does that effect the rng drops too or is it only based on what's actually usable at the level you're at?

Yeah, final vendor gave a choice of Arms and Class item plus some trials shaders.

You get a ton of rep tokens for the first vendor if you go flawless though. Enough for 2.5 rank ups just from the card and wins. Plus the tiered rewards for each jump up the spire. loving showered us with loot.

This is from a bit ago because I was out running errands but it is accepted lore that this is the big reveal. The big big reveal. The pyramid ships are a higher level, extremely advanced race of beings. They constructed the Cabal from the ground up, genetically as well as mechanistically, with the primary purpose of using them as an instrument to hunt down and eventually destroy the traveler and all it holds dear. While Calus does not know it, he is actually a robot, and every time he is conquered and killed in a coup or revolt or a galaxy spanning war, the pyramid beings instruct his consciousness into yet another robot body and life for the cabal, it seems, goes on. Think of it, how could this race of war pigs construct something as massive as the world eater? Where did the Psions gain all of their ethereal knowledge of time travel? Why would Ghaul, after having everything, aspire to suddenly seek the traveler? No, the Cabal have always been the hand of the Pyramid, and in fulfilling their reason for creation, they will be the ultimate destroyer of the galaxy. The pyramids are coming.

If it's white spheres vs. black pyramids, where do the grey cubes fit in?

How concerned should i be about the types of energy my weapons are now that in getting ready for nightfalls/raids?
Is running all one energy type (void subclass, energy gun and power weapon) wrong and bad? Should i be infusing multiple element type energy weapons so i can switch between them?

I plan on either having three copies of the same gun with a different element each. It'll be a pain but gently caress it.

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.
Cayde's taken king journal specifically says he was flesh and bone once, that he had a heart beat. It's also meant to be slightly unreliable, but that's a pretty big fact and probably is beyond the scope of "slightly unreliable"

Which is bungie for "we are pretty sure we want this to be canon but we aren't 100% sure we won't change our minds in 3 years"

I've been grinding titan, but it doesn't feel like that to me. I love the constant action and the random special squads that show up, as well as soloing poo poo. It's dropped good exotics to eat for light.

I've heard a line from the cryptarch about part of Exos brains being encrypted from themselves. I wonder if it's the part where they got transferred from human body to Exo body.

Dodge is top tier in Crucible. I can peek lanes without committing and immediately exit any situation I see fit. For PvE I couldn't give two shits because Orpheus Rig means I have my bow almost 100% of the time to make sure the dippy titans and warlocks on my squad have a super to make them almost useful.

e: also, superfluous dodging in pve gets me smoke bombs back much faster. always be tokin

Find it weird that in the first couple missions you get decent character moments and interactivity with the story and a ally npc for an encounter with Zavala shooting at ninja turtles in a ruined tower, but the final mission beginning where all the npcs that bungie wants us to give a poo poo about do cool stuff in a noninteractive cut scene kind of makes all the characterization not go anywhere.

The final mission was cool in the city but there was nothing that made it feel cohesive with every guardian trying to retake their city, bungie has made ally AI before so I don't know why they didn't try putting some in.

All in all its a p good game and I'm trying to level up my light before applying for any of the goon clans. I'm having fun doing my dailies, I love space Neopets
