tbh I would use zhalo more for B and C if it's muzzle flash wasn't so bad.

Guys I have a her caster arc with glass half full and spray/play, should I infuse it with the continental to raise the light level or just switch to the continental? Cont has persistence and crowd control.

100000% better experiment into elemental primaries, turn Zhalo's seizure muzzle off. But yeah, of course you would, they're great Exotic perks.

Bad Juju is eternally loling as it melts the 50 enemies without shields then Curses sprays a runny dump all over the 1 with.

Who would ever if it lost B and C tho?

I'm not saying elemental damage on primaries has no place or is inherently stupid, I'm saying that Exotic perks make Exotic weapons and as those have none, faaaaarrrtttt.

I don't like the feel of Zhalo so I'd probably use my Adept Edict over it in Arc Burn but it's a moot point because I prefer using my Dreg's Promise in burns anyway

My bad idea prior to this patch was to just change Necrochasm to Void and bring the Mythoclast and Necrochasm into y3, so you cover the 3 elements. Though it's been a long time since I've used the Mythoclast, but it always felt like a scout rifle with much shittier range? Sounds cool as gently caress though

It's full auto so it's more like an AR.

Damage wise it's more comparable to a high impact scout isn't it? I remember ammo being a huge problem when using it

Sameish idea, one exotic primary for each element. Solar Scout with basically Exploding Rounds and crit kills have a chance to leave a little hot spot like a self-rez nade , Void Pulse where crit kills have a chance to create a Hereafter effect but it's a little blackhole portal into the void of space and it does damage to nearby enemies, a low health tier one enemy may get sucked in. Some crap like that.

I guess the fix for the self-res bug caused a loving hilarious regression. Murdaro is sitting in a match right now where everyone is dead and the round won't end. It's a flawless match and nobody wants to back out and take the loss.

Walked into a gamestop to order the limited edition Destiny 2 because I found out I'm going to be gone that weekend and don't want a package on my porch for three days (and ten dollars for release day delivery is a loving sham, I've got amazon prime and I am used to paying nothing for it).

They gave me the Cayde 6 figurine and I have to say, I'm surprised at how well well-painted and nice it looks. It's a little silly with the big head style but it's not out of place sitting on my bookstand with Commander Riker and my 149.99 Dinklebot.

I reinstalled the game today and I really like the multiplayer changes. Last time I played shotguns were everywhere and sticky grenades didn't do any damage. I also always wanted to try No Land Beyond. Using it with a sidearm is super fun.

I paid $5 for a preorder just for the Cayde figure at Gamestop, but while you can buy the digital preorder from them, you have to come back to the store and to the code... Or you can just buy PSN cards and then preorder on PSN and not have to leave the house. :shrug:

Online makes more sense, imho. Destiny is a pseudoMMO and most of the data will come from the net anyway, and having a dvd just waiting to get scratched seems a bad deal.

"Sorry friends, I can't raid this night, my Destiny blueray is scratched" would be superweak.

I went into a private match with some very very very good players who came back to the game recently (we are talking cheesefactory class) and took my necro. They had been scriming for a bit so while they were probably rusty they weren't totally out of form.

I should not have won a single 1v1 vs any of these guys but necro was shredding them.
