To be honest it was 4AM when I started making the gif and even I don't know what it's supposed to be about by the time I finished it an hour and a few GIS searches later :effort:


On the off chance that any bungie employees read this; My titan turned in enough Dead Orbit faction tokens for 31 engrams and I got 15+ truthtellers. I say 15+ only because I stopped counting. I will never want or need 1 truthteller, let alone 15 of the fuckers. Just wanted a triple tap highish impact handcanon.

Now that is some terrible luck.
The reason I asked is that some people think handing in tokens in rapid succession leads to more dupes. I haven't seen a lot of testing done on it and my own findings are pure conjecture, but it really does feel that way to and just to be sure I always take my time now when handing in a lot of stuff.

I usually do the daily faction mission(lol don't do these) then a bunch of public events on the EDZ until I get about 100 tokens. Then I turn those in, get 1-3 truthtellers and then quit the game in disgust before trying the next day.

Worse part is that I got so accustomed to destroying the garbage the game gives me that I mistakenly dismantled the one Dire Promise the game deigned to grant me.

Halfway through the dismantle bar I thought "Wait...Is that a handcannon with triple tap. No big deal, I'm sure I'll get at least one in the next 10 engrams. Plus there's no random rolls." :downsgun:

1) Learn to click on enemy player healthbars, this gives you perfect headshots

2) Always hug walls and cover. If you are exposed to teamshotting for more than a second without cover you are a dead man

3) Switch guns based on map so your always fighting at your most effective range

4) if you don’t know where your own team is, you hosed up

5) if you poke down a hall/tunnel and the enemy is already set up, loving BAIL instead of trying to trade with 3 dudes who are already looking your way

6) Heavy Ammo is king

7) Check your radar like the speedometer in your car, a quick glance every few seconds while your moving and shooting. Remaining ignorant of your radar is suicide

There’s a lot more but those are the super basic ideas that I used to get better

Focus on survival first and foremost. A good weapon for learning the Git Gud is Nameless Midnight (or Purpose if you have some Trials charity engrams). Stick behind your team, control your engagement range, focus on cleanup, watch the lanes where engagements happen, learn flank routes. If you don't land the first shot in a fight, bail ASAP. Learn your escape routes.

For learning map flow and lanes, absolutely. Once you have map awareness you can play more aggressively.

Leave me alone, dad, I'm with my friends!


I learned by following a teammate that didn't suck and being his fight buddy during the match. Learn the maps, pick a weapon that works for you, don't be a spaz (like I was) when engaging. I went from being the team albatross to actually carrying a team through a match the other night. I'm not great, but I'm not useless any more either.

Also why did I disassemble Nameless Midnight, goddammit, it's better than MIDA

I agree with all those but for #5, I sometimes deliberately charge the fuckers and get 3 for 1s at the cost of my life. Pulse grenades are an amazing tool of fuckery.

Survival is key, and that means knowing when and where to bail. Control your engagements as best you can.

Sit the gently caress down because I'm going to remind you that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country because he won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.

This is exactly why I advocate learning with a Scout. If you use an AR or a SMG your ability to outplay people is stronger. This can lead to building bad habits based on mechanical skill. A scout makes you build game sense. You need to know your lanes, you need to fire first or that AR guy will outgun you.
