Weird because it did staggered ultra knights on my end and no, I didn't have the high caliber rounds perk equipped since I'm going with field scout.

It's the high caliber round upgrade that causes enemies to stagger. Doesn't have anything to do with target mark.

Not sure why people were saying it was target mark doing it.

This scout does have great 2nd tier perks though. High Caliber Rounds, Perfect Balance, and Field Scout... I'm having trouble choosing between them.

Yeah I'm thinking high caliber for HM crota and field scout for everything else.

Me either. I just started using it and unlocked the target perk in no time. I saw on a hive they were staggered when the target thing was on them.

First Blood bounty has a damn bug, needed one more and got it in like 3 different modes control, runble and clash and it didn't register for the bounty. Where the hell are they getting these programers?

I can't see any pulse rifle outclassing Bad Juju unless it's got great specific perks that work wonders for raids.

Juju definitely doesn't have an ammo problem, and the super filling ability is awesome. Auto fires too.

Of course, being an exotic does make it less attractive but it's still the best PR in game I think.

Unless you're going for an extremely specific build, like Voidwalker Warlock with Obsidian Mind, Bad Juju is a piece of shit. It falls under the dreaded high RoF/low impact sub type of pulse rifle, a type of pulse rifle which has no business being in this game, because just like their high RoF/low impact auto rifle cousins, every pulse rifle of that type is outclassed heavily by their high impact counterparts.

In the last OT, I gave a list of the current top 5 pulse rifles in Destiny, a list which will only get better when the new datamined pulse rifles of the high impact variety, get added to the game with House of Wolves. The current top 5 are.

1. Red Death
2. Three Little Words
3. Super Pox VLO
4. Fair & Square
5. Strangers Rifle

Bad Juju ain't getting anywhere near this list, neither is crap like Oversoul Edict and Praedyth's Timepiece. Strangers Rifle is up there because it performs exceptionally in PvP, though once the two new high impact pulse rifles get added in, it will drop from the list. From HoW onwards, the pulse rifle top 5 will look something like this

1. Red Death
2. TAU 5051505 UAT
3. Down/Out
4. Three Little Words
5. Super Pox VLO

When Bungie finally decide to give us the Trials of Osiris, the high impact pulse rifle you can get from there, The Messenger, will replace Super Pox, though where in the top 5 it will be will depend on it's stats. All I know is that Three Little Words will be a definite for 5th place, due to it's attack rating being lower than the others coming in the next expansion. Since it's a PvP related gun though, I'm guessing it will be something like this.

1. Red Death
2. TAU 5051505 UAT
3. The Messenger
4. Down/Out
5. Three Little Words

Alright confirmed my earlier theory, going invisible before picking up sword and not attacking anyone until you reach Crota will work 100% of the time. If you're not invisibro though it may not always work, but you will still get your first sword run unharmed. If boomers ever attack, it'll be on your second (and third if you go for it) attempt.

Graverobber is indeed a reskinned Timebreaker. Can't say which primary is best since I only have two, the SR and PR.

Haha! This post is just a smidgeon less than what we all got hear in Party Chat when Silver got the pulse rifle. :D

I am having such a good day playing Destiny today. I've been very productive, had a HM CE and HM VoG run today, and played with a lot of really great GAFfers. #DatCommunity

Sorry. I guess I exagerated a bit. lol

Still got Ice Breaker and Vex on Atheon. I think it was my best run ever interms of loot.

Thanks for the invite.

Yeah seems like this is the correct answer.

I had dreams of disorienting the Swordbearer as soon as he came out of that door. Dreams dashed =\

He's still the biggest variable in the encounter.

On our third kill he actually went in the Crystal Room with us, so it was really easy to kill it.

I tested out the Graverobber and it is exactly the same. Just reskinned. Tested it out in the mothyards and kept switching back and forth between it and timebreaker.

The boost seems to last the same amount. Was hoping that would at least be a little longer

So someone just got a Gjallarhorn at Deathsinger.
And another Gjallarhorn from Crota.

Shard them both!

I got my first decent piece of Titan Gear. It has Intellect and Discipline!
It's the helmet :\
I'd complain more, but the Black hammer also dropped and that's cool.

I'm looking to do the parts one and two again of HM to try and get the AR. Playing on vita so no mic. Hit me with an FR if you're up for it.

So I just did Deathsinger on Normal having not even faced her on Hard, and she gave me no loot. Even checked the Postmaster and nada. Same thing happened with my Crota Hard Mode kill, and the Abyss Defiant showed up a few hours later at the Postmaster.

Yeah, heads up fellow Gaffers, the First Blood Bounty for 5000 is bugged once you hit 2 out of 3 it won't register the last one. Several reports on bungie but yet no patch. This is ridiculous.
