Roctavian posted:I was working under the impression that Hung Jury will still be on the Nightfall rotation next season, which was the entire basis of my "Don't Bother Doing Nightfalls Until Wendigo Week" strategy. I have two older adept Hung Juries that I really like already, and while I wouldn't say no to an origin perk... I would otherwise just be going for the same rolls I already have? (subsistence/explosive payload and rapid hit/box breathing) I was in the same boat but went into the mines for a bit because the origin traits are just so good. For pve the nightfall perk is amazing since it's a premier champion gun, and for pvp omolon has amazing synergy with the box breathing play style.

I wonder when they'll retrofit the new raid adept system (which is amazing imo) onto the other raids with master. Fatebringer/Found Verdict/Midha/Submission will be all over the crucible since those weapon types really care about adept mods.

I enjoy champs/match game because they're a fun puzzle to work out and mix things up. I know you're thinking "but with it gone you can use whatever seems fun rather than only running the meta loadout!" Buddy, if I had that level of self control I wouldn't be playing destiny

Bleck posted:Any rundowns on Trials of the Osiris? I'm expecting to hear "oh, that's going away tomorrow, so you won't be able to get the cool bird armor, sorry." The bird armor should be the armor next season, and they're also adding in the option to focus the old sets so every trials set ever should be available. Since trials is LL enabled they don't turn it on for a few weeks at the beginning of a season. The earliest it'll return is the week after the new raid debuts, but I could see them making that IB week (especially because they're moving this to 3 times a season) and having trials return the week after.

Don't worry, the wellspring equivalent has only 3 separate daily exclusive weapons you have to farm, down from 4! although they all need 5 patterns so it works out to 15 total red borders vs the 16 for wellspring

I don't care if the guardian rank number resets as long as the unlocks don't. The dumb thing to me is we already have season pass ranks, seasonal challenges, triumph score, and seals to show accomplishments/knowledge and this system fits into none of it. Also as was said the commendation system is weird, everybody is going to be stuck on 6 for a long time because 7 requires 750 points and the system is only active at the end of activities for a short while and you need to press buttons to bring it up. They should have at least made it like overwatch where you can do it until the next activity ends.

It's so stingy which is why everyone is instance shopping for the gold patrols. You need 2 of each because you can get 3 from doing the campaign/missions on your 3 characters.

On the flip side of the coin I think encounter 3 of RoN is by far the weakest, and feels like it's from a different raid. The other encounters are much more dynamic, and you can totally have someone save the day if people know the mechanics. Encounters 1, 2 are like Exhibition-lite (the best raid encounter in the game) while 3 is like Atheon-lite which is meh. 4 is better-rhulk and also a great time. Plus there's only so many things you can do when you only have a gun and interact button and they want to make the encounters class and subclass agnostic.

Kesper North posted:How do you all have such ridic armor and my rolls are lucky to have 65 points per piece? There are 2 main ways to get high stat armor. The most straightforward way is to use the seasonal high stat armor focusing. Definitely the lowest bar because you get engrams from everything. The "best" thing is to farm the master duality dungeon when it's on rotator, you can do either the final encounter or cheese galhran in the first encounter. The latter is definitely the fastest. This gets you artifice armor which is the best all purpose in the game.

syntaxfunction posted:Part of me wonders if Lost Sectors are the way they are because if they weren't then besides timegating people til they hit powerful cap then light level really is pretty much pointless. The maximum effectiveness targets for Grandmasters this season are 1815. That's just the powerful cap, plus 15 artifact levels, which for anyone considering Grandmasters is not gonna be an issue by the time they open. In fact outside of Lost Sectors I don't know if there's a single point to going past the powerful cap besides bragging rights any more? The one place where it matters being at the Pinnacle cap is Trials of Osiris, which is just lol. I assume it's an artifact of them trying to cut down on f2p cheating, but I feel that's accomplished equally well by the requirement for Lightfall ownership to play and they never relooked at it.

Oxyclean posted:It might be slightly better to play today after reset since I think they have "flawless pool" which keeps all the people who've gone flawless from matching with people who haven't, or something? I mean trials is just a badly designed game mode. There's ostensibly no matchmaking except card based (e.g. people with 5 wins play people with 5 wins) and it's sold as the power fantasy of winning 7 which if teams are remotely balanced is extremely unlikely. They've tried to bandaid this with the flawless pool, adept qp, and fire team based matchmaking, but due to the reward structure the bottom drops out of the player population once the new loot is acquired. This is definitely your best chance to get an adept immortal though, playing freelance after flawless pool is in effect. It's a fun mode if you can reliably win but that's a big if. I had high hopes for the comp rework since that would be a more "fair" system and would be better to be the aspirational mode.

Definitely wait for a sale, that content isn't going anywhere. I don't think there's a "complete" legacy pack, there's one that gives forsaken/shadowkeep/beyond light and then stand alone witch queen. There's also the thirtieth anniversary, and last seasons dungeon pass. Imo witch queen has the way better campaign, but the other pack has way more items and another subclass. The dungeon pass is a fun 10 dollar buy if you can find someone to go through it with you, same with thirtieth. But for solo play it's not a great idea.

PathAsc posted:I'm pretty salty that once you fully unlock strand on one class they no longer get green macguffin drops so you "get" to do it all again. Had I known that before I found out the hard way I'd have farmed all the green poo poo on my warlock for the other two. Don't worry about it, you actually can't do that. If you ever have more total strand bits in your inventory then you need to unlock the remaining stuff it stops dropping. I purposely left a fragment un-bought to do just that and once I got over 200 they stopped dropping. Also, unless they patched it you can't ever really get rid of it, because once I unlocked it on all three characters it would always give me a drop of bits if I had none but then no more.

It's supposed to be everything in your collection, including postmaster, except for engrams.

In any case you will be perfectly fine having the highest level item in your vault.

Snapes N Snapes posted:Thanks Guardians! Looks like I'm going double bow (primary+heavy) from now on. Any legendary recommendations or is it always precision frame+fastest drawtime+dmg perk? PvE bow thoughts. I'm only going to touch on legendary bows since you want your exotic to be leviathan's. Imo the most important question to ask is "how many hits does it take to kill a standard red bar". If lightweight and precision take the same use the lightweight, otherwise use a precision. Always use minor spec The next question is what perks to use, and the answer is always explosive head. It is always-on +17% damage, AoE, and double champ hitting. There's basically no reason to ever use a different perk. For the other perk the answer is usually Archer's tempo because it adds an on-hit draw time reduction that goes beneath the floor. AT/EH will be the best roll in 99% of PvE cases Finally, I highly recommend kinetic bows because of their intrinsic +10% damage that stacks with surge/overcharge. They're just better than any element unless you need the coverage which you usually don't. So I would rate the best PvE bows in each frame as Lightweight: Fel Tardiddle the Craftable Wellspring bow with AT/EH, it doesn't get any better. Precision: Accrued Redemption from Garden of Salvation, AT/EH as well. Since that's kind of a pain to get the next best option is Biting Winds from Europa, it only has EH but you can farm it solo.

Pirate Jet posted:I’m a little confused on how Avalon/Vexcalibur works and none of the YouTube guides seem to be helping. I’ve finished the quest but haven’t found all the secrets, there’s like three left I missed. Do I have to find the other three to unlock all the crafting options for it? I still seem to have M1R Distribution Matrix IV locked and none of the catalysts are available, though that may be because my Vexcalibur is only level 7. Of the 7(?) secrets only 3 are tied to the intrinsic upgrade, so just follow a guide and finish those up, it's pretty easy on normal. For the 3 catalysts you have to beat it on legendary, and you'll get one of the three. Then do it twice more for the other two.

Now that I'm at powerful cap and continuing my quest to go from Not poo poo at Destiny to pretty decent, I have no idea what traits are desirable in guns. Is there like a cheat sheet that says like SMG with XYZ is awesome but with ABC its garbage? The "wishlist" feature in DIM will put little thumbs up on your things, they're not perfect but they're a good place to start. It's not too hard to guess what's good yourself though, in general for PvE you want a reload perk and a damage perk. For PvP the secret cracked perk is rangefinder because how magnification (zoom) is currently used in all the under the hood calculations.

It's lame that only one class doesn't get an always on go-fast exotic. Imo they should just have the jump effect turned off on dodge if they care that much. The one I'm really surprised they didn't look at was PK's, they are by far the most stacked weapon exotic and I don't think anyone runs them in PvE. I assume the thinking is "it's only because smgs are meta and those are getting nerfed" but I don't think it'll be enough because of how overtuned. If like lucky pants did for HCs what PK's do for smgs nobody would take them off

It's a game about collecting all the guns, people want all the guns. Some people can't/won't do high level activities and I see nothing objectionable to giving people one drop a week. Especially given the dire state of lfg/new player experience. People are running it for 18 drops a week! Imo that taste may make people want to try these activities more. I think the beginner raid taste like preservation/seraph station should give one drop. Currently the only "build defining" raid drop this season is Commemoration, with Bricks from Beyond and Volatile Flow on the artifact. The raid exotics Collective Obligation and Conditional Finality are also somewhat build defining. CF in particular is so well designed and fun I wish everyone had easy access to get it.
