Get a grasp. Mine doesn't even have a god roll and it just eats dudes up. I love just walking through maps and gunning dudes down from full health while in critical health because they don't even know what the hell is going on. It's a great gun if you suck and need a replacement for actual skill.

Is the omnigul strike hard? Does it take forever to farm or what. From the descriptions it seems kinda involved

These days you use a skeleton key at the end of the strike (which may be grasp or a bond :downs:). Grasp farming died when ROI launched, Blues farming died during the latest hotfix.

No, it's easy as long as there's no arc burn involved. Kill fallen, kill more fallen, run through a room, kill hive, kill boss. Use a skeleton key on the chest and you'll probably get a grasp or a cool warlock bond.

at 338 it shouldnt be that hard to find enough random blues to get you to 340, maybe wait until then at least.

Rasheed was, with Aliases, the top 7 PvPers in Bone Krew.


No one talks about this.

Because everything they've done has been to punish hoarders so no reason to change. Make all the highest level gear available from actual activities instead of just who can stockpile the most engrams. It's good. Stop grinding, just play the game.

They are random drop of strike bosses. Heroic and Nightfall strikes have a higher chance but it is still a really lovely drop rate.

Yeah it was, in a way. They straight up capped purples and if you popped your yellows early they gave you basically no overall light boost.

People were still able to power level because of two reasons.

First, people quickly figured out Omnigul blue farm, which allowed smart hoarders, who held back after they recognized poo poo wasn't popping at light increases like they expected, to hit 365 first and then pop their poo poo.

Second, people has serious amounts of SC that they could use to rank factions (also more effective once the Omnigul farm was identified). Remember, factions rankups were traditionally capped below max hard mode light. 330. Not 335. I expect something similar here.

Mine has braced framed, armor piercing rounds and hidden hand. I don't feel like it needs counter balance at all.

You get a free skeleton key for doing the post-RoI storyline quest from Shiro. Quests only show up if you do them from the playlist IIRC.

Yes. Well, not technically, but it's kind of poo poo to solo.

They really went overboard on buffing the hell out of the arc hunter super. I don't think I've seen a single one die since RoI. Meanwhile I've been shooting down sunbreakers and Stormcallers left right and center. I charged at a storm caller earlier and punched him to death while he was shocking me. Blade dancer though? Get hosed they're invincible.

I think they just fixed the hit registration for blade so that you can actually hit a dude and trigger your healing perk under fire. No armor buff.

Blades are just harder to hit because they're in close and can rapidly change direction. I've killed plenty with teamshot then shotty melee.
