Isn’t it possible to get Aegis Sceptor today?

Is titan melee useful in PvP? Someone on the last page posted a video of a titan player with a shotgun just annihilating people but when I tried that on my titan I just got murdered constantly

titans have the fastest melee cooldowns of all the classes and it takes two melee hits to kill a full-health target, so they effectively have the best standard melee

bot tree arc gets passively increased melee damage and lunge range if you damage someone first (p. easy if you've got a hipfire friendly weapon like a shotgun or a smg or an auto rifle), which can make it easier to secure kills

top tree arc, bot tree void, and top tree solar get charge attacks that can one-shot if you melee after sprinting for a little bit

also there's an exotic helmet called the Skullfort that recharges your arc melee ability if you get a kill with it, which means infinite shoulder charges if you're into that kinda thing

(said exotic also triggers health recovery on melee kills and Fists of Havoc kills count as melee kills, which means that you can just rip through the enemy team at full health no matter how many times you get shot)

Sneaky best exotic for melee is antaeus ward since you can survive a shotgun blast and put them at half health for the free melee kill

Really good with Sunspots but probably great with other things too!

FYI the Override is The Last City this week. For any of you who never got to finish the season of the splicer storyline and get that ascendant shard and cool ship and just finish it and see the FWC AARP leader’s corpse on the ground (like myself) now is your chance.

Read that it is either bugged and doesn't drop or that it drops from the not-yet-implemented higher LL version of Alignment chests

I still can't wrap my head around why in the hell they buffed Silence and Squall a little while back. It's like Bungie has some mandate that Hunters need the most obnoxious or OP supers.

Meanwhile all it takes to take down a shadebringer is like one dude shooting at them with a mythoclast.

Silence and Squall is alright now, shatterdive is clearly egregious. If you're getting shot down by Mythoclasts while in Winter's Wrath that's on you.

Silence and Squall was always alright. Hunters were just salty it wasn't multiple free kills. The tracking on the tornado is way too aggressive.

Maybe I got tagged beforehand, but Winter's Wrath felt comically flimsy to the point I wasn't able to take one dude head-on.

Hey now that's a name I haven't heard in a while, and I have a few in my vault still. I think I'll try the one I have with Moving Target/Kill Clip, but this Quickdraw/Rangefinger roll might be interesting, I got discouraged with Sidearms a million years ago when (I felt, at least) their ADS performance wasn't quite on the nose.

Winter's Wrath has 51% damage reduction which puts it on the same tier as Daybreak, Nova Warp, Hammer of Sol and Blade Barrage. You're probably feeling squishy compared to say, Stormtrance which is 53% damage reduction because Winter's Wrath has no mobility options so floating around in a bad position means you get shot to poo poo.

Fun fact: everybody has always had the opportunity to get a god roll messenger with a bit of practice. :)

Not sure if you're kidding, but they're talking about the rocks in the Shattered Realms that you destroy with Ager's Scepter. Also, yes, I blew up the rocks.

I think Bungie made The Corrupted Nightfall even harder than before. Or maybe it’s because I went into it with pubbies who had no idea what they were doing. I should have left when I saw the guy with Sweet Business. That was all he used. :negative:
