Has anyone have their weekly shaxx bounty complete as soon as it's picked up? Only got 19 strange coins from it :(

the bounties stack, I had done three or so iron banners when I completed the mountaintop quest. I packages for 2 weeks in a row without completing a single bounty. FYI the weekly iron bounties count towards it too

I just googled the cost for paying and holy poo poo. They have $150.00 USD for Rank 5 iron banner, what the gently caress. You can suck at PVP and still get there easily. Flawless trials is 85 USD if you give them your account. Who are these retards paying people to play a video game for them.

Anyone else see that Coe is no longer curated by bungie starting next week. Completely random modifiers and bosses. One bonus modifier and two difficulty modifiers. Could make for some really lovely weeks.

Got a PDX-41 from leveling up the gunsmith:

Perfect balance/Counter-balance/ Hand laid stock or lightweight.

I know it isn't part of the "meta" but with hand hand laid stock it has 100 stability which combined with CB makes the thing a loving laser beam. Range is at 36 and it is alot of fun in PVE. Haven't tried it in the crucible and won't unless there are buffs/nerfs etc...

Just finished my first HM Oryx. I really hope there's a lot less flawless synchronized swimming nonsense in the new raid. They haven't outdone VoG yet.

Hopefully it isn't as buggy either, we were making mistakes but some of those wipes were the game loving up. I got killed twice after we killed the shade it spawned me and another player in the spot and killed me. Also finally got the HM helmet and the shader

edit: and the 16 orb denotation round always feels like a crapshoot to me.

Is it even possible to get 30,000 points in one run when your bonus point condition is blocked by trickle?

A well coordinated team should be able too. 3 warlocks with nothing manacles and tier 5 discipline running the quick recharge on void kill. The hunter perk where grenade kills instantly refill melee and melee kills instantly refill grenade would work too. Should be interesting when roi drops with the new artifacts, no super with double melee and double grenade could really help during a week like this. No way I am messing with it this week though, good excuse to take a break from destiny until roi so everything feels fresh.

Is it worth it to use the 25 boost on a 22 character or should I save it? I have no idea how long leveling takes

It will only boost you to level 25, so do not use it. It does not give exp or anything like that either.

I had an antipodal hindsight drop with

rodeo
perfect balance - injection mold - rifled barrel
counter-balance

I know the archetype is dog poo poo but I have never used an auto with rodeo and counterbalance. Anyone have experience using a gun with both? Definitely what to try it with both PB and RB.

The scopes are md-reflex, red dot ora2, and oeg riflescope

Gonna hang on to it until ROI to see what changes they make to the meta.

Doesn't like any Iron banner until after ROI drops. Also no mention of any real changes outside of gun buffs and nerfs until Rise of Iron.

Yeah I have been using it post patch on my titan without the perks unlocked, the buffs definitely made it worth using in pve. It is basically a god rolled zarinea d with unlimited ammo provided you are killing poo poo, in pve at least.

1) Do we expect engrams to decode into year 3 items if we picked them up before the 20th

2) Is there any reason to care about hitting max light now, rather than just buying some vendor gear on the 20th

3) Are there any specific items - strange coins, motes of light, 3 of coins, etc - that I should be saving up for launch and avoid using now?

4) Are there any specific activities that I should be doing now because I will have missed the window after RoI is released (excepting moments of triumph and the new space aids epidemic, both of which I am already aware of)?

1. No idea until ROI launches

2. Not really

3. Keep a variety of items, 3oc are probably the most important if you care about the new exotics or want to grind and hit max light level quickly

4. If you don't care MoT than just play want you want to play until ROI drops.
