drat these caps. Stuck at around 280 and seems the raid is the only way to upgrade. Or lucky exotics. Time to wait now. Can't wait to get back in there though. Now that we figured out the strats its time for the loot to rain.

I can't seem to find a reason not to always use Origin Story and Uriel's Gift, even though I have "better" Exotics.

Do the powerful gear milestones tomorrow and that'll knock you up another notch. Faction rewards and stuff turn into 286 for me and getting the MIDA on a second character, it came out at 304.

[quote="“long-rear end nips Diane”" post="“476512364”"] I’m waiting to hit the 270s before I do the exotic gun quests  On that note, really looking forward to hitting clan level 2 this week and seeing what the increased rewards are like. [/quote] I’m redoing the quest on my hunter for this reason. My first one dropped at 280 but it would be nice to get one at 290

theSpokeyDokey posted:Grinding Heroic PEs is a great way to get exotics IMO. I was averaging like 2 legendary and 1 exotic engram every 30 minutes or so. Unfortunately they were all dupes instead of the god damned Mask of the Quiet One I've been trying to find. I wish there was a way to specifically go after at least a type of gear, I have an exotic chest that I'm using but it's bonuses aren't for the subclass I'm using, but I've only had blue drops for chest pieces otherwise.

What's the Thread Opinion on the Nergal PR4 from the gunsmith? It seems to do the business in scrub tier PVP.Ouhei posted:Is there anyway from the map to know if something is a heroic PE vs. normal? I've been running around doing ones I find on maps but only one or two have been heroic so far. Not remotely, no. But most of the events are pretty easy to make heroic singlehandedly if you get there early enough (don't try this if you're alone, though).

They're all normal public events until someone triggers the heroic version after it starts.

I really don't wanna make a 2nd character so I'll just live with being a bit behind. It sucks that that's an actual way to gear up. In the end nothing matters as I am rerolling PC.

Here are the ways I've figured out how to make events heroic Cabal mining - shoot the flying ship until it dies (probably the easiest) Cabal spying - shoot the vents when you have to evacuate Taken one - dip in and out of the darkness aura then shoot the big darkness ball until it explode (takes forever) Fallen tank - open all the thingies Fallen servitor - kill all the lil servitors I don't know how to do the others, been trying a lot on the vex assimilation one but I can't figure it out

It's insane how fast gearing up alts is now (once you hit 20/finish the drat campaign). My Titan was like 275 as soon as he hit 20 and still wearing blue armor. Still have all the post-campaign missions, exotic quests, and most of the milestones to go so I assume he's gonna pass my warlock in pretty short order.

Follow one until a capture point pops out of the ground, capture the points for all 3 beams. Glimmer drill- Kill the drill itself (the small machine on the ground nearby) in all 3 phases. Witches ritual- Once you kill the wizards, stay in the circle. The crystal above the door on your side will eventually become vulnerable, shatter them both. This is probably not soloable so you'll have to hope there's someone who knows what they're doing on the other side.

Emron posted:Going max resilience/recovery at the cost of mobility made the last section of the gauntlet room...a little less fun. I've only been in there for the group scramble at the end of the encounter but as a high res/rec titan I was only using my double-jump to get over long pits or skip bridges (and collect orbs). There was one part with short pits that I found easiest to just regular jump.

Of all the heroic public events, the taken one is the most annoying and awkward to trigger. I've only managed it once. Every single other player just destroys all the minor blights way before I get to destroy the primary one. Even now it seems like it's the sole public event that nobody knows how to do.

Yeah you get so little time with the buff, and the big blight is soooooo hard to kill even if multiple people are shooting at it. All it takes is one well meaning idiot to kill the small blights since they die so easily

For PvP ARs there's also an energy AR called the Jianghi AR4 that's basically Uriel's. And the Cuboid ARU, which is just a blue, is also a similar solid gun. Darth Windu posted:Lmao I didn't even know there was a hive event, what the hell The Hive event is only on Titan I think? I've only seen it once but it seemed to be very specifically for the room it happened in.

Tip for anyone making a hunter that is a pvp tryhard: Do not unlock the final perk six shooter in the top skill tree. It let's you have chains of woe and a golden gun with 3 shots with increased target acquisition.

Also apparently the game is down for 4 hours again I can understand once, but having it as a weekly occurence is retarded since it's right during European peak hours when everybody gets back from work, affecting half the playerbase! Having the game only being available 6 days of the week isn't too impressive

So which auto rifle is the choice pick for PvP? I'm currently torn between the Scathelock and the Cuboid but if there are better choices I will try to hunt them down. Is the Trials auto any good? I got it in a clan engram I think.

Haven't tried Origin Story in PvP yet but I see a lot of people using them and it's a goddamn laser, so I assume it does well.. Perseverance feels sort of halfway between an AR and an SMG and is a solid choice too IMO.
