Sorry, guy.
Came home from a week of travel and found clan engram rewards. Got the raid Rocket Launcher and Auto Rifle. Both 10, so I guess infusing is in order. Did everyone get this or did I somehow win the Clan-carry lottery?

Also, can you infuse something more than once?

Warlocks Exotic helms are so good I turned helmets Always On which I never do

So far I've got the Eye, Liberty Spikes, and Devil Horns. Legendary Pacific is great too

I'm torn on my Warlock exotic options for various scenarios as i haven't seen or done much testing on them. Transversive is a no brainier for pvp right now but if Nezarec's void dps to class ability transfer is significant I may give that a shot. For pve it seems like Skull helm or Karnstein are ideal, and where does Winter's Guile fit? Seems like it could be good for both (I go for the melee quite a bit). Otherwise I just have Daybreaker exotics and literally zero Stormcaller specific ones.

The maps, the reduction in team size, and the nerfing or removal of many things that used to be one-hit kills.

is that murderball mode in the game anymore? the one where you get the orb and then slam dunk it into the other base. I loved the maps and fights that erupted for that one, especially when the map was set to "unrestricted cooldowns" and everyone went hogwild.

The new game modes arent the worst but poo poo like 4v4 Countdown comes nowhere near the amazing chaos of the 6v6 NBA Jam with Specials Always.

Is there a waiting list to jump from the Xbone overflow into Bone Krew if a spot opens or someone goes inactive? Not much seems to happen in the overflow and most people are still leveling, My 292 lock is lonely.

The NF is actually pretty easy if you don't immediately get on a sparrow and attempt to get the light pillars and anomalies by rushing through it because someone will die, likely a few times. Instead go to the edge of the cliff, rocket the big group at the bottom and then just deal with the mobs, get the light and hit your anomalies. If no one manages to die you're good and even if they do you'll make up plenty of time in the dark room with the platforms. We got to the boss room at 7 min and had him down around 2 or 2:30.

Also if you or anyone has a Riskrunner it was basically made for this. I tore through the first wave room using it.

Getting Rat King legit seems like a loving hassle though so I'll probably just cheese that tonight around 7 or 8 PST on Xbone, add me if you're interested and not in the overflow clan (FUNSL1DE).

Ahhh I need a Riskrunner again, that thing was legit in beta

Honestly, even though they made the clan interface actually work this time around, it's still a good idea to go through that list in the OP and add people as friends + get in the slack.

Probably a really stupid question this, so apologies in advance, but what's the mechanism for sharing stuff (guns, gear, bits and bobs etc) between two characters on the same PSN account? Log in with character A, stuff everything in the vault and character B can pick it up when they get to the point in the story that they unlock the Farm?

I think I did initially but I'll go for it again. What's the Slack info? I don't see it in the OP. If it's private I shot you a message over Bungie.net

Use a program like Destiny item manager to transfer items between characters without having to mess around with traveling back and forth between the vault in game.

Is temping. A way to reduce some of the grind in the game. Look at the modifiers: they are class based, with 3 of the same class you could straigh delete the ones from class you don't have, so that give you 300% more space. But they had to nerf it like other parts of the game.

Early on people were saying that the fastest way to hit max light was to grind multiple of the same class. But it's really only a little more effective than grinding an alt so I just did that instead.

Beat them while using a Rock Band drumset as a controller and then I'll be impressed.

Intelligent and bright, they explored a world that was new and strange to them. They liked it, they thought - a whole world just for them! They were dimly aware that a God had created them, was watching them; they called out to him, thanking him in a chittering language, before running off.

the large boost to "powerful engrams"

If you run multiples of the same class, your second and third set of engrams won't drop any higher than your first did

My RNG to get a kinetic +5 legendary mod is the equivalent to one of those new account level 11 druids running around in bear form in wow battlegrounds.
I've spent 100k+++ glimmer and melted countless purple mods for zero point zero kinetic purple mods.

I have to wonder if I should just try to do the blue random purchase and build one via 3 blues.

I have the same issue with my legs, it's still stuck on a blue mod just because I haven't been able to gamble enough of the same mods for the leg slot. Must have spent about 200k glimmer so far. The clan public games perk is a godsend for this at least, since it doubles the amount you get (I think)

There's something seriously fucky about those drop rates for me too. I have purchased about 14-15 legendary weapon mods and only got 1 kinetic one. If it truly has 1 in 4 odds then I guess we have the shittiest luck known to man.

I've got at least 10 of each of the elemental ones and 0 kinetics right now so throw me into the lovely luck club too.
