Except it's not going to be anywhere near as severe as Match Game. It's going to be on par with Gambit.

Vexcalibur is especially silly on Strand Warlock. Pair it with Necrotic Grips, Volatile Flow, and the Shackle Grenade. Pick up orbs to get Volatile, eat your grenade so kills of any kind will suspend enemies near the one you killed, then stab things with the overshield buffed melee. You're spreading volatile and poison from Necrotic in one hit, and when those dudes explode they suspend everything around them and make that explode too, which generates more orbs, which means more volatile. Toss in that fragment that gives you woven mail when you grab an orb and you become an unstoppable blender :allears:

You can fire Coldheart for 13 seconds straight without letting off the trigger before you have to reload. It fuckin' rules, it's War Rig for Traces with the bonus of making Heavy ammo for allies if they get the kill on marked enemies. Works for Champs, Bosses, and Vehicles i think? Toss Heavy finder on it and it's Heavy for everyone!

Just how easy is it to mark targets with it? Can a warlock just spritz an entire wave of adds, or does it take sustained damage to do it?

Sustained damage for like, a few seconds and you can only mark bosses, champs, and a few other things. The mark lasts for a while and shooting the marked target again refreshes it.

In the past, they did not modify any guns that already dropped. Guns that can no longer roll the way people have them are around, and I've heard people call these illegal rolls. They exist, are out there, but there are extremely few of them (iirc, the Dawning SMG used to be able to roll with double dragonfly, which I think is the most common illegal roll).

It's cool if you have one. I have (or had, I may have deleted it accidentally when i was vault cleaning) an illegally rolled Commemoration from very early in DSC's lifecycle.


I've still got my Wastelander with Adagio, before they reissued it with an Origin Trait and removed Adagio from its pool.

Shotgun enjoyers, Xur has a Last Man Standing you do not want to miss:



On the surface, this doesn't seem like anything crazy yeah? Subsistence on a shotgun is cool, sure, but it's the addition of Discord on top of that that makes this something wild. "Final blows with another weapon grant this weapon increased speed for aiming down sights, accuracy, and airborne effectiveness for a short time. When Discord is active, final blows refund ammo." It's that very last bit that takes this from a "Huh, interesting." roll to a "Wait, holy poo poo, that works?" roll. Pull out your primary, murder two redbars, then swap to Last Man Standing and you have 6 seconds of infinite ammo. Yes, infinite. As long as Discord is up and you can hit your shots, every kill will return one round to the mag so you don't have to reload AND it'll add a round back to your reserves so you're just straight up not using ammo. It's hilariously fun!

To add on to the Savathun's Spire secrets post I made earlier: Keep an eye out in the final boss encounter for a big boss Shrieker called a Reclaimant that will appear sometimes! If you can burn it down and kill it before it closes up and vanishes, you'll get a seasonal gun (sometimes red border!) or a piece of armor and some other goodies! I'm unsure of what causes it to spawn, i've seen rumors and rumblings that everyone has to go through the correct symbol doors on the final platforming bit but no clue how true that is.

Re: Strand Banner Titan, y'all should try it with Age-Old Bond with Repulsor + Destablizing. It's... very silly. I've got a setup right now with Strand / Void dual siphon, Woven Mail on orb pickup, and Repulsor + Destablizing Age-Old. Plus Strongholds and Lament. It's absolutely absurd, you fire Age-Old into a bunch of red bars to explode them into purple mist and get overshield, grab the orbs for Woven Mail, then go sword / punch something to get your healing pulse going. Congratulations, you're an unstoppable monster :v:

It would be awesome if Bungie would stop putting lovely modifiers on Altars of Summoning. So far we've had Attrition, Grounded, and now Togetherness. Altars feels like a genuinely fun activity that they insist on constantly ruining with negative modifiers that add nothing to the experience :argh:

Imagine if you could pick modifiers like you do with difficulty, with more difficulties giving better rewards. I have no idea how that would work with matchmaking but it'd be fun for non matchmade stuff. Being able to do a delta 0 difficulty, but with a ridiculous amount of modifiers would be hilarious.

That would genuinely be awesome! I'd love to be able to come home from work and do a low stress version of Altars with no modifiers that would still at least give me the new guns, even if it was a lower chance of red border or something to compensate :v:

The Swarm is just utter trash. It's got bad stats on a bad frame and a bad perk pool. It's only saved from the title of worst LMG in the game by Planck's Stride managing to be even worse.

If you really need an arc LMG Song of Ir Yut is right there and craftable. And if you don't raid then go to the moon and target farm A Fine Memorial which is still better than The Swarm.

Whoa whoa hey now. Planck's can at least get Grave Robber + Swashbuckler. Pair that with the origin trait and it's pretty fun for a close range heavy for a melee brawler build.

Heads up for anyone doing the new Exotic mission, Wish-Ender is still insanely busted. Rather than hop down and fight the big end boss normally, you can hang back up top and just shoot through the Vex "window" with Wish-Ender until he's dead. You'll have to run back and grab the two buffs every minute or so when they run out but if you don't want to deal with the tiny cramped arena and hordes of enemies, you don't have to. You can also hop up on the tiny ledge where the window is and your gun will poke through enough that you can use your heavy or special, but that leaves you open to taking hits from all the enemies in return.
