Paracelsus posted:If I understand correctly, only ads that are specifically placed by the developer, or are otherwise specifically accounted for (like blockers in Gambit), count for objective progress. Things that spawn infinitely, or that spawn from other enemies, like taken psion clones, don't seem to count. there's some weird fuckery, overall. I've had some psion clones count, but others not, or count for some objectives but not all. the enemies at that strike aren't infinite, they have waves. but the green room effectively is infinite (not counting the time limit) and does count. enemies in gambit will count for some objectives but not others. taken enemies count as both taken, and their original race, for some mods and objectives.

With layer upon layer coding like that on enemies it’s no wonder the weirdest bugs imaginable keep popping up.

Yeah it's really inconsistent. On those Invitations of the Nine quests I was able to farm taken kills from respawning Psions in one EDZ lost sector, but not from those in the neighbouring sector. Those spawns at the end of hollowed lair didn't count for grenade kills in the recent vanguard GL quest, but they did count for the grenade multi-kills component of the same quest. Really I don't see a downside to everything counting. It's not like you're not actually doing the killing, whatever the spawn situation. I noticed they started specifying playlist strikes in the solstice armour grind, so you could no longer do the "start nightfall, piss off to some patrol zone with easy enemies" cheese, which use to work for most strike objectives.

Blind Rasputin posted:There is a bug in the corrupted that I’ve gotten many times where if you die at the first encounter where you have to throw the ball at the techiun (in the area with three floating platforms and tons of ads) and aren’t revived, the game revives you back at the top of the long plunge through the ascendant plane you have to take..far far back in the level. So you revive, immediately get the “go back” timer and die 4 seconds later. This lasts... literally as long as it takes for your team to get to the end encounter. It’s so bad it’s hilarious. Oh hey this can also happen in the actual boss fight itself. If she is in the ascended plane and you die outside of it and self rez you can get stuck in permadeath.

You can still do this in playlist strikes. You just quit if its a strike thats not corrupted or whatever the hell you wanted to do the cheese on.

Got both Hush and 21% Delirium today! Haven't used the former yet, but the latter just completely melts enemies in PvE. I'll go for the Breakneck next since I'm close on its objectives, and then probably the Wendigo next no luck on Jotunn this week, though  curried lamb of God fucked around with this message at 04:25 on Aug 26, 2019 |

Or at least you can do this on ps4 I dunno if you can do this on xbox/pc though

I don't think I've used a scout rifle in this game yet I'm just relieved to not have to use bows in Gambit anymore - they're definitely a ton of fun to use, but my Wishbringer and Badlander with Threat Detector and Rampage absolutely melt adds, blockers and envoys

I didn’t play from October 2018 until Age of Opulence started (in June I think). I’ve put almost 300 hours into the game since then. I’ve gotten every quest exotic (except Acrius), most of the pinnacle weapons, and most of the exotic gear drops. I’ve done an Infamy reset and 4 Valor resets. I’m getting my 5th done this week. I’m trying to get the Notorious Invader armor set for the seal. I have enough points for the extra health and just that makes a huge difference. I got 15 guardian kills the first game I used that perk. The bridge section of Reckoning is really painful. There’s no room for error.

I think it's good when you can run through most of the content in an expansion in 2-3 weeks. This drip feed stuff just isnt for me. I end up waiting til the end and then doing all the stuff. I like going hardcore on a game for a few weeks and then dropping it entirely for other things while waiting for new content.

It's good for any boss if you have a 2nd dps weapon. Usually the big dick move is to throw down your anarchy charges and then burn all your mountain top ammo with a rally barricade or in a well and just top off the anarchy when it stops.

Are the Spider bounties repeating with the exact same slate (or nearly) for the last 3 weeks a known issue? I've been out of the game for awhile and thought I would play catch up on all the open world stuff I'd missed

Please don't ask gogo about his vault, it's intervention required levels of hoarding. The only solution to fix it is to blow up the new tower and move to a third one.
