I have 1/5 items dropped from the Red Legion. I am all over Nessus blasting Red Legion Cabal and they are dropping gently caress and all.

Any hot tips?

I seemed to only get drops on the dudes outside of the well of flames. Probably just luck though, i killed a butt-ton of dudes. Low drop rate.

I'm honestly scared to even boot up the game with these gauntlets still in. I don't know if I could really take that kind of abuse right now.. what if I start to self harm again? The fact that Bungie is delaying this and potentially putting more lives in danger is seriously making me question my purchase.

This has come up a few times before. The issue is that a good 60-70% of Titan's playspace is in the biosphere where only a couple of missions and a strike takes place. The rest of the outdoor activities have been crammed onto the two rigs outside. The activities just need to be spread out a lot more.

Still a good and cool place though

I agree and disagree. Titan has 4 adventures compared to the crazy double digit amounts on earth, and you're right most of the planet is dungeon space like the extensive off-map zones on the other planets. I guess they could put a drop in point on the central part of the arcology, but I feel like it would probably mess up all the missions where you walk I'm there and something different and big is happening in that space. I think it has to be dungeon space, not regular world space.

The rig and the other zone have some pretty dense layers and spaces that aren't really used well. I fell into some platforms I don't remember being part of any mission or anything, but I don't know if it's because the place is kinda confusing or if they're really unused.

Titan is just too small and has too little going on. The aesthetics and music are awesome though.

I got the Titan exotic anime legs earlier, and I think I really dislike them A LOT. It really changes how you can move around and gives you radically more control and jump duration, but I think the way it's implemented (?) is bad. It feels like that same loose and stronger freedom of movement is also applied to knockback effects, and because those effects are a strong as gently caress impulse normally when you wear the legs it's outta control.

I was getting boss stomps that would knock me back twenty feet but with the legs I was getting blasted completely off the map. Situational at best. Probably wanna pick a setup that minimizes being in melee range. I tried doing some public events and after dying like that 3-4 times I just went fuckkit and went back to the autoloader armor.

One thing that's interesting to compare is the autoloader titan armor and the warlock boots. Titan only loads the autorifle that's in your hands, but it constantly reloads. Warlock reloads your energy weapon even if you're not holding it, but only as long as you're sprinting. Both are pretty cool.

Question about drops that I'm kind of confused on: it sounds like drops are determined solely by your light level, but then people are saying that it's calculated based on all the stuff in your inventory / stash too. Does that mean that even if I equip a weaker weapon and my light stat goes down, my drops are still based on the what my highest light *could* be? Because right now my most powerful kinetic and energy weapon are both hand cannons and boy it fuckin' sucks.

They scan your inventory and your vault to find the highest power level valid loadout possible, so if you had a 288 mida and a 290 graviton Lance it would find your next highest kinetic to calculate the level of your drop, in combination with your other gear slots.

There is a limit though right? All my guys are at or around 280-285 now so everything that isn't "powerful gear" engram rewards or from an exotic engram is coming out at 279 for me. Powerful gear is 288 and exotics seem to have a bit of variance, either coming out at 284 or 288.

If it's like D1, the benefit is there but it's very small. You can jump a bit higher with max agilitiy/mobility than if you have it zeroed out.

Only time it was ever a thing though is when people were trying to climb to the top of felwinter's peak.

Haven't figured out if D2's implementation is different but it doesn't feel like it.

I find having enough mobility is more effective than going all in, at least for warlock. Had a balanced armor set and mobility set and comparing the two I would say a balance gives more survivability to my play style. One was all fives and the other was like 8 2 5 and the lack of toughness sucked balls. If you're able to play in a way that takes advantage of the increased speed it would be worth it, but it's not for me. The difference between the two was instantly noticeable but hard to put in words.

Mobility is important for titans too. If you have anything at real low numbers you're nuts or some kind of Zen master player imo.

The top crucible dudes are currently going for 8-10 in Resilience (Titan) and Mobility (Hunter), while Warlocks aren't really going any higher than 7 on Recovery.

Titans seem to favor recovery over mobility, and Hunters recovery over resilience. Lots of pro titans with 0-1 mobility, and hunters with 1-2 resilience.

Warlocks are sort of at like 3-3-7 for the most part.

Yes and no. If you equip a 10 damage weapon and are still at 270 light, you are going to be doing way less damage than if you had a 270 weapon also. However, you're still going to be doing way more damage than if you had all level 10 gear. Damage scales based on the level difference between you and the enemy you're fighting (even though uou aren't shown that level), but the attack level of your weapon is a major factor in that calculation.
