Did you know it's time to reset your Valor?

We were in a raid in a very tight dps window for killing atraks i think, and we got the Clan Level Up banner right in the middle of the last dps phase before enrage. It was extremely funny that we couldn't see our progress toward murdering the boss.

Ho boy. Coming back to this game after a year off and having to figure out how to reset that sure was interesting. I must’ve checked every single crucible option looking for the old button! Thanks shaxx!

Weird to think that is the "optimal" layout for raiding.

It wasn't and isn't for many reasons, the first of which is that people had widescreen monitors in 2009

I remember my clanmates showing me their screenshots and they looked similar to that (albeit much shitter resolution). I never used mods like that, mainly because I was a paladin and all I knew was the "Cleanse" key.

I guess that is a reason why I love to play as middle-tree fire warlock, support is just in my nature. I hope when/if they add more class customization they can add some buffing abilities in the game.

What's funny is this was supposed to be the last season before Witch Queen, and would have led perfectly into it.

Which means next season is going to completely break the narrative flow and probably be absolute dogshit since they had to pull it out of their rear end at the last minute.

Yes. I was thinking about this article and it talking about the possibility of them having to add a bonus season, and somewhere my brain got convinced that another season had been added.

There's no need to rush to be an adult.


The PvE mode is a 6-light collection where you kill ads and bosses to assemble a meal. Each wave is a 'course'. Keep champions from sabotaging your meal, and score extra by sending in an invader to ruin their meals.

Crucible is a 'Capture the Ingredient' mode where an ingredient pops up on the map and your teams have to run to grab it and not die. The more it changes hands, the more 'tender' it becomes, rewarding pressure from an opposing team rather than camping spawn points.

Gambit is an Elimination mode: invasion kills have a longer respawn to hurt your team, and a wipe steals progress to add to your own collection. Primevals can grow stronger depending on how well your team is doing, allowing teams that are falling behind a better chance to steal it all away.

When Mithrax says "The Vex mind lashes out with something like desperation", what does it lash out with?

My guess is that it sends 3 page text messages that start with "I'm not like other Vex".

Or, a highly curated Vexbook dating profile.

I seriously don’t think they’ll do a year 4 season 5, these kinds of things have to be planned out basically like a year in advance.

They delayed WQ _right_ at the point where it would be too late to start a new season. So... It's possible but the more I see from Bungie, the more I don't see it happening.

I really wish they’d dedicate a season to an Age of Triumph-style QOL-updates-only period, and this would be the perfect opportunity for that, but I doubt they’ll do it.

I'm pretty sure we'll just have a Season where it's Year 5 but it's not Witch Queen, whatever that ends up meaning.

Like we get the equivalent of Wrathborn Hunts but we don't get the equivalent of Europa, Darkness subclass and DSC

It will not be popular

Before you poo poo on the toaster too hard, remember that all of the money made from it is going to charity. This isn't bungie rubbing their hands together for greed and profit (for once).

Sure, fine charity but it's so much easier to just ask for donations and not pay a marketer 150k a year.
