Saw a video yesterday after I completed it (I was curious to how many anomalies there were) and it said there were 30 in total, so you could add 15 minutes.
My group last night failed with 1/3 health on the boss. I think we were about 24 minutes in. Could have used a few more minutes.
I wonder if the locations will change the next time this strike is the NF or maybe just the modifiers.
Do you have a link to that video? I'll try to make this more complete later.

There is a maximum number of anomalies you can hit to add time. There are more anomalies than this max number. I dunno what it is, but it is way less than 20. Maybe 20.... give or take.

It was the datto one, but if I remember correctly they didn't show every location as it was more of just a playthrough rather than a walkthrough.

I feel like I might just delete the Rat King quest. I'm a solo player and not a very good one at that.

I'm close to doing that and the raid quest. They'll both taking up space and at this point I don't think I"ll ever get it done

Resources will come continue to online soon as we dig into the game and put together guides and FAQs and all the stuff that our awesome community has put together in the past.
In the meantime, post in the thread. And since the matchmaking system, Guided Games, won't be online immediately, be sure you post in the clan recruitment thread or visit the mega-post of all DGAF clans and join a clan!
- List of Public Event Heroic Triggers
- BIG list of Tips & Tricks volume 1 from Hawkian
- Some early leveling guides: Rules of thumb and First Hand advice from a 280+ Guardian and more extensive leveling advice.
- An overview of endgame progression options to help you if you hit a roadblock.
- A list of legendary weapons to keep an eye out for.
Destiny 2 is finally upon us, but I need to take a minute to plug DGAF, GAFs Destiny community. For a lot of us, this is OT45. Thats right, Destiny went through 44 OTs and the only thing that slowed us down was Discord (quote the OT to get a invitation to the DGAF server, btw. Discord details here). I hope that won't be intimidating to new folks, because its meant as an invitation to a huge and dedicated community. We have real legends who've been among the first flawless raiders and weve got Trials champions. Weve got scrubs and weve got carries. Weve got casuals and weve got completionists. Weve been here through content drops and content droughts, through nerfs and buffs for three years.
The people you may call veterans here each started out new in this community. So if youre new or old, dont worry about clans or cliques. This is one big community. If you see someone forming a fire team, then volunteer! Want guns for a challenge or just some company to shoot the Darkness errr breeze, then put up your own call to arms. DGAF will answer the call.
Whether youre here FOR THE PUPPIES (or ramen shops), or youre pumped to play a real Destiny Killerwhether this is your Homecoming, or you're wishing everyone was herewhether youre here for the loot, or to fight the Darknesswhether youre here to finish the fight with the Cabal or you want to see what the community will do, all that was Destiny, this is Destiny Too.


I hope you join us, because Here We Go Again.
Quoted OT for discord, but didn't get the link. IF anyone could help me out that would be appreciated. Thanks
But muh grinds and God rolls :'(
It definitely does not - I did the strike this morning.

It should be the last link in the quote when you get to the post text screen.

I feel you. I know that DestinyGAF is awesome and that I could get help here and all that but I really hate being a pain in the ass and I'm also not big on mic usage.

Damn so a more even distribution this time around
That makes the nightfall harder than the last one if you dont find them all on the way

The link says it has expired on Discord. Can you PM me the current link. Thanks
I need to do the NF portion of the Rat king as well. I haven't done a single NF in D2 come to think of it. I've also never done trials or the raid. I'm not really a mic user and dont have any friends who play destiny.

Depending on the week and skill/gear of the player's carrying someone through a Nightfall isn't to much of an ask also Nightfalls aren't so difficult that someone being bad is going to be too much of a hindrance. This might not necessarily be the exact week to do it, but I wouldn't give up on Rat King just yet. In the end it's not really big deal though, because it's kind of not great.
I'm at 304 right now and I need a chest piece to hit 305. I got two 300 warlock bonds last week and three 300 bonds this week. I've done all my powerful Engrams and 2/4 raid fights this week. It's looking like I may not hit 305 until next week.
got all 3 of my characters to 305, still no nighthawk or lunafaction boots, got like 2 raid weapons and another chest piece from doing 2 raids. My Titan is pretty much done for the week, I can't think of any exotics that are super useful for titans. 1st week of doing raids where we've completed a raid without wipes and I only died while dicking around in the underbelly. Hoping prestige drops in a couple weeks.

Ill put a new one in after lunch.
Feel free to add me if you two would like, I'll be happy to help with the Nightfall part (aka the hard part) of the Rat King quest.
I'm stateside, central time zone, & available at night/on weekends. If either of you see me online, don't hesitate to ask for help.
PSN ID is the same as my GAF name.
Feel free to add me as well.

Thanks, if I have any problems with it still I'll let you know via PM.
PS: Hopefully not.

I used to do Nightfalls weekly in year one of Destiny and then I just stopped caring once Taken King came out. Come to think of it, I never even did a raid after Crota.
Needless to say, I have yet to try a nightfall in D2.
Edit: Thanks to everyone who has offered to help! I'm CartmanPat on PS4 (I know, I hate the name too) in case you see a friend request come through and don't know who it's from.

Sorry guys, but that's a defeatist attitude
Mic helps a lot, it's necessary for Raid and helpful for NF
Calling out and getting stuff done in this shared online shooter, communication is key
DGAF is here to help
We constantly put teams together from all walks of life
Just try to dip your toes into the water

we expecting bungie to drop any interesting news today?
I'll speak for everyone & say you definitely aren't being a pain in the ass by asking for help, it's literally the reason some of us are here. You would be hard pressed to find someone in here who hasn't asked for help at some time or another, so don't stress over it.
Feel free to add me also. PSN is ch4fx_

Imagine a world where Bungie didn't join Activision. Would they still be in business? Would they have done things differently creatively?
tomorrow during the weekly update they might drop the new October roadmap, which should give us a preview of the Halloween Event/Iron Banner stuff.
or I'm wrong and they won't give us shit. ¯\_(ツ
_/¯Woo, I just lucked out actually. Did my final Hunter milestone for the week, Call to Arms, and got a 300.
Officially 305.

Sparrow Racing, please.
Did Destiny 1 do themed content for the seasons of the year? I really can't remember, but I dropped out Destiny 1 rather quickly.

Can you not change your nickname for the Discord? My username isn't my GAF name.
Admins and mods can change it.
The crashing bug is completely unacceptable at this point. It has been in the game since launch and has only gotten worse.
Three people in my raid party had their game crash last night, which trigger ANOTHER bug that prevents people from spawning into a Fireteam. It crashed twice for me going to the tower.
And today, it's crashed three times going to the tower in an hour.

Many of us like playing the game and are out of ideas on what to do. Helping is fun!

AHA! So that's what is causing that to happen. Man, that is such a frustrating bug to have.
Nice.

Asked this in my clan but the site seems down for maintenance now:
What is your favorite weapon of each type thus far? I love Nameless Midnight and Last Dance currently.

Yep, it's awful. This stuff needed to be fixed already.

I really hope they do, it doesn't hurt them in the slightest
Hell it helps the community prepare
Oh cool Week 3 with those burns, no NF for me or Week 4 Iron Banner, should start practicing PvP and looking for 3 like minded players to do IB with by the end of the month
