So I was curious so I went to the thrall hallway to see if I can still get kills for weapon leveling. Seems like the answer is that no, the thralls no longer count for kills.
Probably hit up shuro chi instead?

Shuro Chi and the loot cave are probably the places to go for weapon kills now.

It's amazing their hands can support such awesome.
Played through the first 3 missions on Legendary. Many spikey mans were shooted. A++ would shoot spikey mans again.

Edit: Legendary seems to be just the right level of challenging. I died a couple times on the "tribute savathun" room in the first mission since I didn't pay attention, and then once to the shriekers on the 2nd to lowest level of the third mission, before I figured out how that fight worked.

does the play seem to be start on legendary to get to 1520 asap, or play through normally, go back to it later? will probably have a small group to do it with rather than solo, if that changes things.

I think it’s probably fine to go legendary if you have pals.

Im bad at soloing things in this game and I found legendary to be pretty frustrating. I managed Presage but it took me a LONG time and I’ve never managed a legendary lost sector, if that helps peg things.

It’s probably doable even for me but I come to Destiny because I like the power fantasy and blowing poo poo up and getting my rear end in a top hat blown out repeatedly just makes me want to play other stuff.

Edit: the season pass exotic launcher is real stupid and I think I love it.

Hand in old trials engrams for the new gun. It's really good; a solar rapid pulse. You can Focus your engrams for rolls of Summoner, now, too

Iron Banner bounties are confirmed to drop at least the new hand cannon, not sure about the sword.

Do we have to wait to turn in bounties until we get the seasonal artifact?

I had a ton of XP on my artifact as soon as I picked it up, so it doesn't seem to be required.

Also I typo'd: the trials gun is a rapid SCOUT

Heads up that all Trials weapons have new perk pools, so Shayura's for example can now get Golden Tricorn

look up 'shuro chi wish wall', maybe a youtube just to guide you to the wall. Then it's a few minutes of shooting buttons

iron banner perk is kills during the Hunt (control all 3 zones) grant enhanced radar and remove you from enemies radar

hand cannon is a solar 180, mine rolled with a new perk that grants handling after kills and also mine has kill clip

It probably takes less time than beating the first encounter of Shattered Throne, but it’s way more tedious to enter a wall code

Hmm, with the way the lvling crafted weapons work, it seems that the moment you unlock a new shape to craft you should craft the weapon immediately and start using it constantly

you need a weapon to drop with a red border, then you gotta use it to fill a bar that lets you extract the pattern.

The Crafting walkthrough is funny-bad.

The workstation is called The Enigma, on Mars. The quest keeps sending you to interact with The Enigma, on Mars. Then suddenly you have a quest to "level up" the Enigma?

The Glaive is also called The Enigma

Whenever I fill the bar on a weapon that says you can extract the pattern, it only lets me extract resonance.

doing that should unlock the triumph in your character menu and then that lets you craft one I think?

Ah, of course it's in the triumph menu, where else?

So you unlock the pattern there then you need to make progress by taking resonance from a couple more of the same type to actually get the pattern. I think?

Edit: Actually, I think it's just that some need more patterns extracted than others. The Cabal pulse needs 5, whereas the craftable sidearm just needs 1. The triumph pages just keeps track of progress, you don't need to go into it to claim anything.

Yesss, sorry! Decrypting them at Rahool seems to be weighted towards giving you the new gun. Then, you can focus directly at Saint for more rolls on Aisha's, if you want!

Ok so this is a neat combo:

'suppressing glaive' artifact mod + stylish executioner means all glaive melees turn you invisible.

also comboes I think with the echoes of domineering fragment for a mobility boost and reload- however I think you can't one hit kill the target to activate this fragment, not sure

Oh - I didn't realize at first that not every weapon with an orange border is one that you can get a recipe from - some are just for the mats.

Not sure how much I like that aspect, since it seems like another reason to feel like you need to hang onto weapons.

Yeah I just popped a bunch of Xûr packages (pretty easy way to level up fast) and it dropped a bunch of red border guns, which I now kind of feel like I need to go and use until they're ready to be drained of their weapon juice. So my spare primary slots are now all full.
