Also apparently the game is down for 4 hours again

I just wish there had been more than literally three seconds of notice. I had just arrived in Orbit after getting both chest and arms Legendaries from Io dude and goddamn they better still be there when I get back because I really only have one good Legendary for each slot, and only one Exotic armor that's useful to me to ever use. :mad:

You have plenty of time to switch to MiDA/mini before the final run ya know

Good to remember, but honestly having a couple people be a little slower probably helped naturally organize the race and make calling orbs easier. We got it in two shots and two (including myself) hadn't been before.

I was front of the pack on the first attempt despite the mobility hit. Titan movement is incredibly economical for straight A->B travel, but it probably comes down to who gets the low right orbs and stays inside track.

The cuboid is blue isn't it? Can you even infuse it?

Nope, but that would only matter for Iron Banner I guess.

There's another AR with a name like Valakydn or something. Some people seem to really like that, it's a higher ROF though.

^Oh yeah that one is pretty good also. Has a big mag as well which can come in handy.

Have they confirmed that light level is going to factor into Iron Banner this time around?

Thanks for the info on making stuff heroic. I'm still getting used to the games systems. I'm at 230 now and trying to get up to 240 so I can do nightfall stuff, I apparently flubbed up stuff by doing a bunch of the endgame turn-in stuff right away instead of saving it till after I ground up a bit so it's a little slow going for now.

The hive portal is hilarious because if you run a super that gets extended duration on kills you can milk the poo poo out thrall pouring out.

That event is the only place I've ever see the framerate take a big poo poo, the first time I saw the heroic triggered at least two tethers flew in at once and the screen was just flashing purple until the event finished banner popped up.

I have the exotic chest for arcstrider hunter that does this and that encounter is hilarious. Using riskrunner is also pretty wild because the wizards spew out arc damage you can basically chain lightning every single enemy pouring out of the portal with a 100% bottomless mag

My beef with titan is that they’re the least cool of all the space barbies. The armour looks bulky and dumb. Did they get whoever decided that all shoulder pieces in WoW should be loving huge to design them?

I tried to play a titan after playing warlock since launch and the titan jump felt so terrible that I'm not sure I'll ever level it. Warlock jump just feels the best to me. I remember someone complaining about the Nessus mission involving jump on rocks and I found it to be absurdly easy. Literally all you do is double tap x and then press x again when you want to stop gliding.

Titan shoulders in D2 are amateur hour bullshit. Whoever did those must have started their career as an artist for WoW.

Or maybe it's more activision interference. Some CEO stomped in and was all "BIGGER SHOULDERS! It's a sign of dominance!!!!"

Yeah, it's my jam. Thing just shits out bullets and is pretty easy to control recoil. Plus it has an insane reload if the mag is empty, like less than a second.
