What I don't like about sports is that you know the game field shape, the number of enemies, the weapons.

In a sport game is very rare that 300 players play against 100.000.

So where is the chaos and surprise that is the spice of life? is not on sports.

It's laughable they're trying to make this an epsort. Pros hate any semblance of randomness and "bullshit" and that is Destiny's MO.

This is 100% why esports is dumb as gently caress and full of whiny entitled idiots.

I'm surprised there's isn't an absolute zero-based ice subclass or something. I wonder if they have any plans for another subclass.

I was thinking about this too just now :aaa:

Titans encase their arms in jagged ice and box dudes to death, hunters get throwing ice spears, warlock gets a cone of cold type thing.
Add shrapnel grenades and slowing melees and you have a recipe for success!

Unlocking the third subclass in Taken King was all about making contact with a lost group. It wouldn't surprise me if the Destiny 2 hook is that Our "Chosen One" Guardians pioneer a brand new technique eventually.

I hope some new exotic weapons drop in the next 2 months, or at least some exotic armors. Some of the unique perks on a few are underwhelming. The 2 of the 3 Hunter pieces Sloane offers are kind of just small handcannon perks.

Regardless, Foetracer is top shelf 100 A+. Grab it, Hunters.

There'll probably be some new stuff every so often. They saw how crazy people got about the Black Spindle, sleeper simulant and whatever the exo stranger rifle was called. They would be foolish not to have left themselves some stuff like that to parcel out between bigger DLC releases.

Yeah I saw some of that stuff, just playing the waiting game until they make that mission a meditation I guess. At least with them being weekly now you won't have that insane rush/pressure to do it when someone discovers it midday, you get home from work and find out you have a few hours to do this thing.

They seem to go after "elements" (void isn't even a element, maybe it's supposed to be gravity or something) that have the most potential for nuking the hell out of poo poo.

What is ice going to do? Make enemies very cold and slow while you stab them with icicles?

Golfers probably do this tbf

Even in golf (where yeah, they go over greens like crazy before a putt), you have to deal with wind. It can make a shot that was cake for someone else a nightmare for you.

I hate the idea of cutting out random chance. Adapting takes more skill than just memorize by the same thing over and over. The latter gets you "final destination no items" type poo poo.

Void's the combination of the crushing loneliness and vastness of the void and yeah gravity and forces beyond our comprehension

According to one of the writers/goon General Buttata, Void is zero-point energy. Not gravity, but... close enough?

Absolute zero/Bose-Einstein condensate (condensate would be a rockin' element name) are more the near-total absence of energy, instead of just "cold". There's potential there.

Love powered subclass. Melee replaced by hugs and grenades with teddy bears. Warlocks can have a beam of pure love that turns enemies into friends so you can hug them. Hunters will become warlocks for their super duration so they can feel loved for like 10 seconds. Titans will create a bubble that makes everyone trapped inside kiss.

Add more themed events with visual changes to your character.

Beach theme: Titans throw a Frisbee instead of a shield, warlocks throw a beach ball instead of a void blast, hunters whip around a pool noodle instead of a pole

Everybody was doing the raid in the first week at 265-270. When I cleared the raid on the first week I was 269.

Your post is probably more accurate if you indicated that it's a reflection on what groups are currently asking for now though. Nobody on the100.io for example will bring anyone under 280 anymore. Goon raids ask for 270+ for the most part.

Guys I have tried the nightfall with my friends like 10 times and we can't beat the boss. It's gotten to the point that we are so good at everything else we get there with like 8 minutes and he still farts around the room and we miss with like 1/8th health left. Please help me I am dying.

I'm 285 they're like 276 each. I'm a titan who owns and they're a titan and warlock who own less hard.

Other thoughts - lion rampant legs have surpassed dunemarchers as best titan legs. Discuss.
