Yeah there are some definite like, 'Dupes' of things we already have as raid/craftables, but the perks and archetypes are all very interesting Some SUPER cool roll options on these I noticed that the guns look like they are infested and also they have former raid-exclusive perks on them, which reminds me of the Vow encounter that made a mockery of our old raid relics. I haven't watched any raid footage but it feels like maybe this one is dipping into that too, if it makes sense?

Imagine my surprise to start a quick defiant battleground and learn that the fucks who run this game had disabled the mod that makes the spec I liked go Thanks a lot glad I could have fun with your game for one loving day this expansion e: wait ok so I didnt read the TWAB, is this just until the raid is beaten? If so why not just disable it while physically in the raid? Spaghetti code issues? I guess I can live with it if it comes back once someone knocks over the raid guy fast cars loose anus fucked around with this message at 19:06 on Mar 10, 2023 |

heavy GL can roll a perk that gives it a damage boost if you deal damage with a stasis or strand weapon. Depending on how big that is it might actually be a wendy replacement lmao

Is there a reason why pubbies in battlegrounds simply refuse to kill the wizards to get the ball to throw at the boss, despite clearly understanding the activity, having decent builds, being good at killing things and all that?

So the raid is Vow but with Cabal. I appreciate that Bungie put the exact same amount of effort into the raid as they did the campaign.

A Buffer Gay Dude posted:That’s a good sign, I’m sick of overly difficult raids. I’ve turned a lot on this expansion, I’m starting to like the seasonal stuff a lot. Now that builds are coming out, I think the mod system is better. As someone who started playing during beyond light, this feels better than witch queen, but I thought Witch Queen was overrated and this feels like people are hating it too hard when it feels basically the same to me. The story and voice acting is bad, but shooting and the legendary campaign were fun. Looking forward to the raid.

Now that someone beat it, did anything in the game change? Like, new Strand fragments or something bigger?

Nothing's changed yet, but I assume it might be waiting on bungie to confirm the world first? Wouldn't expect more strand fragments - they already gave us those early.

Just got Lord of Wolves from a Lost Sector. Pretty interesting, though I’m not really sure what the point of the full-auto is? Just make it like a machine gun for a few seconds? Seems like more of a PvP gun, but my Titan Strand gun was missing a good energy shotgun, so I may use it. Berserker really comes together a lot more once you get some fragments. If you can keep Woven Mail up it seems good, but as soon as it drops off I get shredded. Seems like you really need Abeyant Leap too, so I guess I’m gonna try and finish the Legendary campaign.

Like as an ongoing thing, interspersed with the usual seasonal storylines. Bungie took a gamble with a new way of storytelling and lost.

The "new" leveling system was literally the infusion system that's become a standard part of Destiny.

Make of this what you will - the Lightfall Campaign epilogue coming in Season of the Deep is the only Lightfall Campaign content to be delivered outside of Lightfall this year. There's no Lightfall Campaign coming in the 3rd or 4th seasons and it's unrelated to the events of Season of the Deep The post-raid Comic Book Video also leads directly into the epilogue mission Reading between the lines, it doesn't strike me as a narrative decision I think Taken King is held in extra high regard because it Fixed a broken game whereas Lightfall is just a thin new layer atop a functional game, but even with the nits picked out, it still looks like TTK has like... a lot more content? A ton more? I can't tell if the implication is that Lightfall is in some way comparable to TTK?
