Just think of all the people who had the presence of mind to not immediately pledge to the guy standing right there when pledging becomes available, but not to go up the stairs into the cool 70s sci fi lounge

Sidearms are bullshit and scout rifles are better for PvE.

DO is the most boring faction with the most boring poo poo, figures they would win. I'm glad I was able to get all the FWC stuff I wanted before this ended.

Dead Orbit won because it has black shaders (not really anymore) and people who play video games are dumb for poo poo like that. Y'all think the people whining raids don't have matchmaking thought about weapon perks?!

To be fair though they do have Stormare

People really wanted the black shader which is totally different than the other ten black shaders in the game because of reasons.

Sidearms are sneaky good but I never thought Nm would have a chance.

There are 3 other scouts in the same archetype that are probably better than the dorbit one, and two other scouts in different archetypes that currently dominate the pvp and PvE meta, and are guaranteed drops.

I actually hope Bungie releases the other faction guns now.

I think that's not how it works, the two factions that lost won't have guns available at all. Only the faction that won has their gun available to buy, and if you didn't pledge to the winning faction you had to pay 50k for their gun.

No. People who correctly chose a better faction than Dead Orbit can buy the DO gun for 50k glimmer but the other weapons are not for sale.

Shard one of everything.

Use the shards to buy more gunsmith guns.

Shard them too

It's shards all the way down!

You follow the path

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.


Dead Orbit won? Neat, I'll buy the scout when I get home. It seems wise to keep a limited-edition version of something, especially from an early season of the game.

I was secretly hoping New Monarchy to take the win, because I love fullauto sidearms. The FWC Pulse I had to sleep on but did want as well.

You have to hold on to them for at least a week in order to have the LTCG rate apply iirc

So how quickly can an experienced group get through the raid with all the layered mechanics? My IRL friend group spent about 6 hours in total this weekend failing to get through the gauntlet so our new-to-destiny friend can get some magic pants and it just wouldn't happen. The biggest issue was just getting through lap 4. Everything up to that point was mechanical, precise and easy. Then we'd start the final run and people would start exploding before we hit the second gate and everything fell apart.

God help us with the pleasure gardens.

We're down to about 50mins consistently not skipping any of the encounters via the underbelly. Going through the underbelly will probably save at least 20mins in total. Also, we're autismal af
