Luna is a pretty bad gun now and i barley ever get killed by it or NF anymore. And i dont see all that many blade barrages either. I see a lot more spectral and arc.

One thing you will be noticing is a hell of a lot more Erentil and snipers.

The meta in general is a lot more varied now

They should make it so that your super is random in Mayhem, and you don't know what it will be until you cast it.

I played a game of mayhem for fun but the round I was referring to was rumble. Probably more tryhards in rumble than quick play but also no 6 stacks

First impression of the Thorn in pvp:

I don't like that green blobs things, but the weapon kill stuff fast. The damage numbers that used to pop from enemies are almost gone and now have a weird animation so is much worse to track enemies.
I believe the green effect is toned down, and tryiing to paint green a fallen dropship failed. All in all, with 2 mayor parts of the weapon nerfed, is still a fun weapon to use, and make me laugth evilishly every time that I kill somebody (:

The Green blobs own, they give you bullets back and let you kill in 2 headshots. The audio cue and green screen effect have both been hugely toned down because they were egregious in d1. You can still paint ships. Like the threshers that come along during public events.

Ran a heroic menagerie last night got no sword or ship but did get 7 enhancement cores because the roll on Austringer it gave me was terrible. Heroic is fun and challenging enough though, had a couple of rear end in a top hat puckering moments when we only had one person left alive. I think 2 out of 6 of our team got swords and 1 person got a ship. Not too terrible a drop rate I guess. I'm surprised there was no menagerie triumph just for doing it.

yeah I'm having huge connectivity issues tonight (PS4)

also, I'm loving the well - it definitely scratches the Mass Effect 3 MP itch. since I'm done with the entire main story (including forsaken), what else should I focus on now? I've avoided MP stuff since I don't have a headset, but I finished my first Forge before the servers went down. I'm loath to buy a headset since I already have a few pairs of good headphones (and AirPods), but ModMic looks like such an ugly kludge

You don't need a headset to play in basic MP (quickplay, rumble, weekly playlist, gambit), no one opts into voice in those modes anyway. You also do not need a headset for forges or menagerie, the season 7 activity that you probably have a quest to unlock now. You can have some success in comp or gambit prime without a team/headset but it's really not the recommended way to play them and you'll get your rear end kicked a lot.

You *do* need a headset if you want to win consistently in MP as part of an organized team, or if you want to do the raids, which are the things you should be grinding towards if you're done with all the other PVE content. At the end of Forsaken you should be more than high enough to immediately do the pre-Forsaken raids. A headset is also strongly recommended for Shattered Throne, a time-limited Dreaming City event that happens next week, and for exotic quests.

Download the destiny 2 phone app and use the fireteam LFG thing for endgame group stuff like nightfalls, the exotic gun missions, shattered throne, etc. look for things with ‘no mic’ in the description

The shriekers only trigger when you go to spots they don't want you to chill out. In the dog room that means stay in the grass. In the last room that means mix it up away from the entrance platform.

Get 400 points. Each piece of Calus Gear you're wearing gives you 2 points on win, and 1 point on loss. An exotic weapon gives a bonus 2 or 1
