Well Gunsmith goes beyond 999 at least.
That's good. Anyone know the max capacity of Legendary shards? I'm getting close to a thousand.
the range is shit, the only time it seems to be worth a good goddamn is when you have a mess of enemies in your face and there is lots of heavy ammo on the floor. e.g. the end of the heroic glimmer event. you'll still probably end up killing yourself.

Why cant I access dead orbit or Future War cult?
I use it a lot. You have to get close.
I find it best to jump really high then fire under you.

I did the one last week at 266 and it was fine
Finally beat the raid.
Also from a lore standpoint can someone help me understand ?
The big game changer on Calus for our group is that the Coldheart is not effective unless you get a LOT of stacks from skulls. Like if you are 90 deep in skulls you are set. We did WAY better with everyone rocking a Merciless. Like people went from 400k damage on a damage phase, to 800k doing this. We melted him in just 2 cycles.

So Ghaul was pointless AF. He was part of red legion which was a bunch of people who betrayed the emperor. They help off the speaker apparently, and made the Traveler blows its load to kill Ghaul and alert the darkness of where it is. So now Calus, he is the emperor of the actual original Cabal Empire. He rides a giant space worm for a ship and feeds it planets. Is the worm dead? He invites you to be entertained by you on his ship. You find out once you beat him that it wasn't him, but simply a robot version which he has thousands of within the Leviathan under his throne room. He says something eerie like you are on the wrong side of this fight. Is the traveller and our use of his light making us the bad guys? I'm confused by what D2's initial story has set up.

@_@ your stockpile of resources is crazy impressive!
I'm glad Bungie loosened up the caps on resources,
I wonder if not having ps3 and xbox360 allowed that.

It's "tonight" but 5am EST.
I used the Wardcliff Coil a bit and kinda liked it, but then SPUD earned me a Sins of the Past from the Raid engram this week and I haven't looked back since infusing it. Pretty sure Sins is a better aoe rocket launcher and Wardcliff's whole point is AOE over reliability. Just doesnt have a place for me anymore. Sure does look sweet though.

this! best rocket launcher in the game imo!
That is a good point.
I liked the bigger sense of scale in some the environments and missions.
Another thing that probably wouldn't have been possible on the older systems.
In pvp it can wreck depending on the map. I get triple kills with it often. I would never take it into trials however.

Lol hit Glimmer Cap 99999+. What's the best way to spend a bunch? Been neglecting buying mods, so I guess I'll get a bunch.
Your PSN id doesnt seem to be working?

Yep. NF, fresh raid, call to arms, and anything else that says powerful gear will progress you.

Cool, Im not actually stuck but I kind of just want to do a NF and dont really want to do anymore milestones right now.

You used jjtae13?
I'm in the same situation as you -- just bumped to 266. But I've been stuck here for over a week, it seems.
It's doable. The Attrition blows and that's the real challenge here.
That's the fastest way to burn through it. Trying to get a kinetic legendary earlier ended up costing me like 70k.
You've probably seen this tip before, but if you fast travel to the nearest point often times you'll be loaded into an instance with more people. Not always convenient, but it works.
Modding costs a fortune, you'll burn through your measly 100k in seconds.
Yeah, thats the gist of it.
Its heavily implied through the lore tabs that he saw The Darkness proper out in space somewhere, and seems to be won over by it. Hes testing Guardians because we helped him out (by killing Ghaul), wants to make us assets he can use, and it sounds like he wants us to play for the winning team when the Darkness comes.
The collectors edition also implies hes made a pact with an Ahamkara (bad news).
It awaits to be seen where this leads, but the whole rais was just a formality - we didnt kill him, and it sounds like Ghaul and the Consul couldnt either. My hunch is because he is some kind of psychic entity (which would legitimize his claims of being a god) who lives through his robo avatars.
Also we learned through a concept art dump the Leviathan is based on Dune-esque worms on thhe Cabal home planet. Pretty cool!

Random Blue Weapon Mods from the gunsmith. I've not went above 30k since discovering them. Usually under 5K after modding equipment.

Makes me sad that PVP has been deducted to a Midafest. Reminds me of shot trading all match in Halo with the dmr 😩
This is what I do every time, and I've never had a solo PE.
Sending out friend requests. I'll get whoever is online first, but I'll get both of you, definitely.
Go to orbit and start again. That's the only work around this atrocious instance based matchmaking they invented.
Many times, if I can't be bothered to fast travel (or its a walker / glimmer thing that I can solo), I'll just start the event and people will jump in shortly after it starts.
