J.A.B.C. posted:Yeah, slugs and spread shotguns take some getting used to changing between them, but slugs (once you get used to them) are stupidly powerful. I got a Heritage from the raid that can easily peak 36k damage in a shot, and at that range a weak point is a massive target. Does Heritage actually hit at Taniks damage distance?

Ciaphas posted:Does Heritage actually hit at Taniks damage distance? Heritage is literally THE best weapon to use against Taniks! Ideally you have a Lunafaction Warlock boosting your range but even if you're taking the ~15% damage penalty from shooting just outside of ideal range, you do the highest possible DPS by using a slug shotgun on Taniks

Is it still true that you just need to clip someone with a pellet to get the bonus slug damage?

It's an easy peasy 1-phase with a fireteam of Heritage/FILO or Heritage/Bonechiller, ideally with Anarchy for heavy. If you do the 4-bomb method and your DPS phase is 50% longer, you can even 1-phase him with a couple guys eschewing Slugs altogther Yolomon Wayne posted:Random drop was an 1180 (the lowest one) nightfall boss i did for the stasis quests.

Just rewound the evening in my head, it is also possible that it came from the additional engram from xur, cause i think i got the reward with the hunter and also got the exotic he offers. Would that make more sense to produce a double? I really cant swear if i did, but its a possibility. I bought the armor yesterday with the warlock, got an exotic drop with the hunter today and *might* have also taken the extra exotic on the hunter since the Titan has all he needs and i didnt play much warlock today...

Stasis Hunter's knives feel kinda meh but otherwise I'm enjoying the changeup from Warlock quite a lot. Got the Mask of Bakris, too, which is a good lol with Trinity Ghoul Only one left to unlock Stasis on is Titan, which I'm not looking forward to because I cannot figure out their jump for beans

Most likely scenario I can think of 1. You bought the Fated Engram from Xur, and got that 1253 Gwisin 2. You then bought the Gwisin directly from Xur at 1248 But also who knows! It's 2020

Now I just need a Reconstruction Heritage for shoot forever times (currently auto-load/rampage, which is hilariously busted.)

What exactly counts as "shatter damage final blows"? Because I swear I'm killing people with stasis left and right and the number isn't going up

Strelok604 posted:What exactly counts as "shatter damage final blows"? Because I swear I'm killing people with stasis left and right and the number isn't going up When something is frozen, and takes enough damage, it pops for an AOE effect. That's shatter, IIRC. Popping crystals also creates this effect. If your hunter or titan, a good way to get shatter is if you have the thingy that lets you break crystals with the stomp or slide. Drop ice wall with the grenade or use Salvations grip, and pop the crystals.

sticklefifer posted:Eramis was such a nothing villain. It's really weird how quickly they set up "Eramis was setting up a Dark Fallen Empire and has been doing it for years now" and then went "welp you blew it up, six hours later" That seems like it should have been a bigger deal or something since everyone keeps calling it an empire, but maybe that's in comparison to Humanity's one city

The campaign would have been kind of lame if you didn't accomplish much / Eramis sort of just got away or whatever. At the same time it does feel like they set her up for a possible return?

Doc Mave posted:“The Fallen God-Emperor has raised an army that will wash over the city like-“ We are Cayde's best Student after all. "Got a problem? Shoot it in the face. Can't get close? Find a way to get close, then shoot it in the face. Ancient force of destruction? Grab some friends to shoot it in the face." Only brought low when his enemies used the tactic against him. I could see Eramiscicle disappearing at the end of Hunt, then being a behind-the-scenes force that we fight alongside Mithrax, to sway the Fallen towards one side or the other like they were setting up in the campaign, building up to the coming of Savathun and Xivu, building to the next great Stand.

Eramis lost, the Darkness has no place for losers. Then again, she froze solid before we could deliver a final blow, though maybe that was because the Darkness rejected her. There's also the possibility she could come back through some sword logic fuckery like Xol did when he became our sniper rifle.

Can i ask a question that probably inadvertently reveals my non-raiding rear end? Who is Eramis? I feel like I'm supposed to have encountered her before by the way everyone in game is talking about her but I have no idea.

I meant before beyond light. There are a few lines of dialog and some of the lore entries that seem to imply that we already know of her / have encountered her before. To a degree that I suspected she was either in House of Wolves and I'd forgotten, or that she was in the Scourge of the Past raid which I didn't do.

Oxyclean posted:you absolute fool, you fell for my bait. Hey everyone, look at the gun nerd! I'm being a bit snarky, the existence of slug shotguns in games feels like they almost exist entirely to appease the "well actually shotguns aren't just for point blank..." and almost feel weird because I feel like they share a niche with like, unscoped rifles? I'm not actually a gun nerd, I just like an old and kind of crusty videogame series with realistic gunplay... The STALKER games, for all their Eurojank, are really good!
