Never compare yourself to a streamer. Skill takes time to develop. You could blow through content like a streamer too if you spent years literally playing a game as your full time job.

I actually really like the legendary lost sectors. It's got fun challenge and yeah for sure I go a bit silly with loadouts and builds so I die a lot, but t there's no punishment for it. The only thing that frustrates me is when people summon like 2 or even 3 pumpkinheads at once, like, no these are not the regular ones, you keep dying to random things maybe just concentrate fire please.

What's the rate for eerie engrams, I've only gotten one so far. And what's the reward for this Sculpting quest. There's a bunch of "guides" online and not one lists the reward.

Not very high, but you should get a couple if you do a bunch of haunted sectors quote:And what's the reward for this Sculpting quest. There's a bunch of "guides" online and not one lists the reward. The grenade launcher. It's just a small reminder to make people check out legend haunted sectors (and then never do them again, since matchmade teams are never able to handle them)

Legend, regardless of number of pages on your person or the number of headless ones you kill, gives you an eerie engram each time. I've been finding them far more enjoyable when you focus on living and are less concerned with maxing out the number of headless ones you kill.

GoGoGadgetChris posted:What uh... what exactly were they going for with these Legend haunted lost sectors.. There's just so much bullshit in them. The enemies are extra beefy AND there's barely any ammo drops. Everything will melt you, most of the maps do not have much cover, and the objective is to stand in one spot. The Europa one is the only one I don't mind the layout. The boss is especially egregious because he can teleport and does not change pattern at all while invincible. He can basically bodyguard a point or headless you need and there's nothing you can do about it. Yeah you can crush them running 3x Banner of War Titans in a stack but it definitely feels overtuned for a match made activity. The only build that seems like it can carry on solo is Banner Titan.

To get Eerie Engrams you basically need to play a haunted sector on Legend because they're guaranteed there and a rare drop on normal

There's no way they don't nerf Banner of War but I'm holding on to it as long as possible lol It's nice being able to just walk up to things in harder content and not instantly melt, though if you're not careful you'll still gently caress yourself and your team. It's a nice risk/reward!

I'm not even a Titan player and I really hope they don't nerf Banner of War tbh. It's just fun. And yeah, if you're hunting memento drops (I assume you would be looking for Engrams) then just doing a Legend Haunted Sector is the best way. Don't even worry about maximising pumpkin kills, just shoot some dudes until the boss shows up. If you're chasing a specific roll of one of the weapons (I honestly don't know why, and I like the guns) I honestly think the normal mode and converting a tonne of pages works better. More pages seem to mean more weapon drops, so that's probably the easiest way.

Halibut Barn posted:Legend Haunted Sectors are another one of those things where sure, I can do them, but it adds enough frustration that I don't really enjoy it any more than the regular ones, but still leaves me with that uneasy feeling that I ought to be able to do better. I can watch streamers blast their way through them like they're nothing, which makes it clearer that there's this gulf in difference in skill between me and them, and I still don't know how they can throw themselves into packs of enemies without instantly dying, or how they can do ludicrous amounts of damage to kill the minibosses near-instantly, and so on. All the high-end 'meta' builds seem to be based around chaining very specific actions to be in very specific states at very specific times, and my old rear end just can't keep up with that. I dunno anything about Haunted Sectors cause I haven't done any but I promise you anybody can get to a point where they can blow through legend lost sectors in a couple minutes. It just takes the right loadout, knowledge and practice. And now that the cost of exotic focusing is reduced, legend lost sectors are kind of worth doing again because they're the best source of prisms in solo play.

I would just slam normal for drops, but it seems like there's a weighted chance for weapons. I get way more acosmic then mechabre, and horror story is even more rare.

you make your own fun in destiny, anyway. it's kind of funny to queue into matchmade legend haunted sectors as a stronghold banner of war titan and see how many revives you can get in five minutes. i'm helping!!

RBA Starblade posted:They aren't THAT bad, but they are annoying They are actually pretty bad. You have to stand in a specific area while enemies with a level advantage spawn all around you. Then a boss spawns right on top of you and will probably do a stomp that hurts and disorients you. Also there may be an invulnerable boss bombing that spot that you can't do anything about. Unless you have the best survival abilities procced for most of that time, you're definitely going to die in there. Also it seems to drop almost no special or heavy ammo for whatever reason so I hope you have a really good primary

Just landed in an instance of the nessus haunted lost sector where the headless ones had stopped spawning, and there were no pumpkin charges lying round, so the boss was just invincible I guess?

NEW PEOPLE PSA Xûr (currently in the tower hangar) is selling the menagerie armour set. For some reason this comes with the Shadow Gilt shader, which is black / gold and looks good on almost everything. Buy a piece of armour, dismantle it, and you get the shader. This is currently the only way to get this shader. The armour set is also fancy as hell but mostly buy it so you can add Shadow Gilt to your dressup box.

I liked every armor set from season of the deep. I like the ornament armor from this season, but the seasonal event armor looks super bad. On the other hand, the Veiled Tithes warlock helmet looks like the time Savathun dressed up as Laura Palmer for Halloween and that's pretty funny.

You’d think with how much I like Ghost that I’d be into a scary pope hat but i haven’t found a way to make it work without robes. The hexwrought armor is hilariously horny and the miniskirt/heels are probably intended for female player models but my Lorelei Splendor titan is feeling very rocky horror.

I got my candy pretty easy, and I don't feel like I did anything too out of ordinary. I did a lot of gambit this week to just get my last 25% to reset complete. But I don't feel like that was a particularly great source. I would think Spire/Summoning activities would be pretty good. Anything dense with low-effort enemies. I still need to get my sniper achievement. and now that I've gotten my last desired neomuna weapon pattern, I'm not sure what public space I'm gonna go dick around in to try and do something else productive.
