Seems to be, but cheesing doesn't feel as good as throwing dozens and dozens of grenades.

Hot take!
I wouldn't say either nova bomb is very good if compared to storm trance, but at least it's not dawnblade.

The weeks not over and Prestige is not difficult. It's a good challenge.
I have really warmed up to it as well. You can get rolled by the opposing team if you don't stick together but if you play with a good group it's fun and challenging and much better balanced than D1

Yup. Agreed. I guess if you just liked the fuckery that was D1 (shotguns, grenades, supers galore, then yeah...it sucks), but I like that this mode makes you think more about what you are doing...approaches, anticipating...I dunno. Makes more sense to me.
Because we are at the point in the Destiny cycle where we have identified issues as a community (issues to us anyway), and we somehow expect Bungie to not only acknowledge them, but respond with a solution capitulating to our demands.
That, and we are off their "Month 1" chart and we want to know whats next.
Ugh, the more I mess with it the more I hate the mod system. It actively dissuades me from messing around with my other subclasses and swapping my exotics. Like I have a set on my warlock with Void Melee, Void Paragon, and Void Grenade to use with Eye of Another World, but if I want to play Stormcaller for a bit I have to swap every single armor piece or I gain no benefit from my mods. Even worse, I feel like I need to carry around 3 versions of the Eye of Another World exotic each modded for a different subclass since they are all specific.
Similarly, on my hunter I prefer Nightstalker for PvE and Gunslinger for PvP, but because I have all Void mods (since power matters more in PvE) I feel like I might as well stay Nightstalker for PvP also since my CDs are decently shorter and Gunslinger CDs feel slow by comparison.
I really wish once you added a legendary mod to a piece of gear it would just "unlock" it, and you could swap freely (or for a glimmer cost) between mods unlocked. There are just too many mods and they are too random to ever have any control over this system.

Zavala dropping 300 PL engrams. Go get those Vanguard weapons (Nameless, Origin, Curtain, etc).
The mod system is boring and shitty so I went for mods that were class neutral across the board. Resilience (helmet), kinetic loader (arms), power loader (chest), recovery (legs), and then whatever I could get on the class item that played into that sort of play. Power loader for titan, recovery for warlock, and kinetic counterbalance for hunter.

Just got the sweet business auto rifle. Pretty damn cool, besides the slow reload.
Yeah I would pay glimmer and legendary shards to change the mod energy type.

What time do they usually drop? Hoping for some Iron Banner news.

Not the best Super, no. It's just a big boom. Wipes out hordes with ease if you launch it just right. Good for blocking doorways as well I guess.
To be honest though, Voidwalker is so overpowered that a 'lesser' Super kind of balances the class out, I think.
Not necessarily, they could go for a smarter system. Or go for the old dumb system, but make it more forgiving.
Imagine if every lost sector and adventure had its own loot tables with specific sets? That's a loop to grind that wouldn't be too grindy, but give end game something to do that feels like rewarding progress. Sets might have one or two specific perks, cosmetic or functional.
Why don't clans have "clan projects"? Give 10xp tokens for completing a guided games raid that goes towards clan projects that unlock, x, y, z stuff. Loots, cosmetics, more clan bling, whatever.
Destiny 1 wasn't a game where you finish, put down and then get lucky if half the people return for the dlc (cough, Division, cough). Destiny 2 is going to have that issue unless they find an end game that keeps people invested.

Me and my friends were not able to do the prestige NF this week, but regular NF we finished 2x with almost 8 minutes left, and the first run we finished with a little under 5 minutes. I don't think we got every anomaly either.
As long as you have the right elemental weapon set up, it should be okay.

DIM is good for dealing with loadouts it just switches all your gear at once after you make a loadout.
Yea honestly I want to stick with generic ones, but I also really like the cooldown mods. On a warlock especially with devour, cutting 17 seconds off grenades, melee and rift is huge and feels way better. Similarly, doesn't seem like much but difference on a hunter between 24 second dodge CD and 18 feels like night and day to me.
Oh yea I don't mind having the loadouts, it is just a huge pain to actually get enough legendary mods for all subclasses and exotic combinations across 3 different classes. I have so many useless mods I'll never use, and never enough of the ones I actually want with no way to actually target those -.-
Nessus packages I believe. I feel you man, that thing is amazing in the crucible. Lock early lock often with guns!

lol the Calus glitch is wacky. It took Bungie ages to patch raid exploits, so I wonder how long it'll take to take care of this one.

missions have a level requirement, the final level requirement is 16, and you'll probably hit 17 be end of story. so yeah, at most, 3 level ups.
