Eververse update for this fall
https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/47935

quote:

On September 17, 2019:

All Eververse armor (new and armor you’ve already acquired!) is being converted into Universal Ornaments
Universal Ornaments can be attached to any newly acquired Legendary armor
Bright Dust is going to come from doing bounties, not dismantling things you spent money on
Eververse items will no longer dismantle into Bright Dust. This Fall, Eververse items will dismantle into Legendary Shards and Glimmer
Eververse items can now be pulled from your Collections with Glimmer/Legendary Shards instead of Bright Dust

Before September 17, 2019:

Dismantle all of your unused Eververse items to maximize your Bright Dust reserves

That's pretty much what I'd hoped but never thought to see implemented, so long bright dust tax to get something from my collection.

on the one hand, that's a decent improvement

on the other hand, that's even more bounties you gotta run around spreadsheeting before you start actually playing

It's better than it currently is which is do Tess's bounties for next to gently caress all dust or break down the piddly amounts you get from lootboxes.

Why do they acknowledge that sparrow farming is a thing without trying to do anything about it

Why are there still 150 speed sparrows and new ones being introduced

It's both thrilling and terrifying.
Truth is the easiest heavy kills I've gotten in PvP in recent memory. The extreme tracking is fine, but the 3 rockets and no reload are arguably even better and just put it way over the top.

oh I didn't realize it was from crucible/gambit/strike etc. bounties. I thought it was just upping the amount from the eververse bounties. That's way better.

actionjackson posted:

yeah that's somewhat similar to what I have (backup and under pressure). would you rather have range or charge time mw?

With backup plan you dont really need charge time MW if you abuse the perk. So range is pretty good.

I don't think charge time or acc coils is a bad choice though

Range, charge time mw is no Bueno on erentil

Can still kill 3 resilance or less in 4 bolts which is basically every good player.

I am confused how a charge time mw could be bad. It drops it to acc coils speed (820). I can see how a range mw would be preferred tho

Charge time and damage are inherently linked. If you lower charge time (by MW or Accelerated Coils) it will lower the damage. For some archetypes, it means needing an extra bolt which means the effective range gets slaughtered

MW Charge Time is generally considered a Bad, Shard It Now perk, but sounds like it doesn't matter as much for Erentils at high level of play

I only ever run fusions with back up tbh so I never worry too much about charge time.

Charge time literally doesn't affect linear fusions in a way that prevents two body shot or one crit kill.

Are you sure the charge time mw lowers damage? Because the crux of the whole argument.

Mine is listed as having 90 impact still in DIM, despite the charge time of 820.

Question about Shadowkeep and cross-save: If I've got Forsaken + all the DLC on PS4 and I buy Shadowkeep on PC, I believe that Bungie has said that stuff like Forsaken isn't cross-buy so I wouldn't have access to it on PC, but how exactly would that work? I wouldn't be able to go to Forsaken areas on PC but would be able to if I booted up the same character on PS4? What if I have gear that came from Forsaken/Shadowkeep but I'm playing on a platform where I don't have that content? Sorry if they haven't talked about this yet so no one has the answer, but I'd like to play the new content on PC when it comes out but I'm unsure of how all this works.

It does ever so slightly.

So slightly that the numbers don't change from 48 per bolt.

I wouldn't stack charge time mw and acc coils though, that would drop the bolts to 47 or less

actionjackson
Jan 12, 2003

well that's loving dumb rip

I'm just going to specify range mw for erentils now

even if it's really 47.6 or whatever, I'm guessing that causes the resilience breakpoint to change a bit

I got that last rune tier and I got a bunch of double drops out of the chest.

I rolled some erentils with range mw. best one I got was rangefinder and torch. other perks were meh (snapshot, enhanced battery) but obviously rangefinder is the best park on the last node (that or backup plan), and I'm pretty sure torch is the best scope (+13 range, +5 zoom, - 5 handling).

As much as I love rangefinder, I think it has tough competition with ttt in that slot. Now if we could have a ttt/rangefinder in the two different slots :getin:

E: trying to remember testing months ago, but I agree that rf is still strictly better. I'm not a fan of what bungie did to fusions, especially with not having them disintegrate exploding enemies harmlessly in D2 (lol bungie you dumb)

sorry no one answered you yet on this

your loot will be accessible on any platform you cross save to. your ability to access the activities that provide said loot will be limited to platforms to which you have a license for said activities

put another way, you can use all your forsaken gear on pc when you cross save and buy shadowkeep there, but you can’t run last wish on your pc without also buying forsaken for pc

I'll suck my own dick if someone can accurately describe to me what stability, range, and Recoil Direction each do for a fusion rifle

cvnvcnv

__________________
Stability helps the kick up while you fire and more reduces it thus helping keep the bolts closer together.

Range isn't how far the bolts travel but how far before damage fall off begins.

Recoil direction is a tendency for bolts to group in a particular area. Perfect recoil the bolts group up and push in center. A leftward recoil means the bolts pack in tighter to the left of their total mass, right and right, so forth, so if it looks like someone got hit by the majority of the bolts but little damage was done it's because the visual representation mostly made impact but the actual bolt grouping was to a side and thus didn't hit.

NOW GET TO SUCKING, BOY. VID OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
