Congrats. I'm still at 27. I'll have to check out his armor in game because from here it looks like he's wearing an armor training bra.

I want to mock him, but sometimes I wish there was a game out there that I wanted to play for 7 hours a day.

Timers are refreshed* as in they can go back to the raid and obtain gear again on their characters. You are limited in doing events with rewards a certain amount per week. The new week resets things so you can get rewards again.

For such a high level character, he looks pretty boring and not all that different from how you look at the lower levels. I guess I just expected a bit more... awesomeness.
That's the problem with this game.
Unless you have exotic gear with its opulent and unique look, you basically have the same generic look as everyone else.

Not sure why it bothers pointing out what legendary items he as beyond armor, as that's all that provides light.
A hell of a lot of players have all the armor they need to hit level 30. The major problem is that at that point you're about level 27, and need nothing but ascendant shards, and there's no reliable way to farm those. Complete RNG.
It's a great feat, and I congratulate him and all. But this isn't similar to a level cap first in an MMO, or a guild first raid completion or something. This is more similar to the first player to get like some really rare mount to drop or something. This guy prayed to rngeezus.

Which is ironic and fitting, because most of the people criticising it don't realise it's a WebGL image of the set up that is lacking a lot of detail the actual game's version has.

Which is a flaw in how Bungle has handled both the website and mobile application, which is unfortunate considering how well this was handled with the Halo series.

WoW doesn't have new tier for 20 bucks a pop though, you pay your monthly sub and have access to each new tier with expansion each 2 years for 40 bucks.

He has been on a hate campaign just ignore him
As far as that Hunter / storm trooper armor, geez use another shader or somerhing
MY level 21 Hunter looks better than him

Yeah, he could very easily apply a aesthetic shader and improve his looks considerably.

"The only problem is, high level gear with high light is hard to come by."
No. No it's not. By now you can have a full set of Legendaries and a single exotic just by hitting the weekly caps and buying vendor gear.
Once again, the problem is getting ascendant shards to increase the light level of that gear.

It's obviously to show off that he completed the raid.

To be fair, the web app makes your character look significantly worse than what you look like in-game.

Variety.
There's a stash where you can store loot to be shared across all your characters. So if you're like me and have received 2 legendaries for a hunter on your warlock, you might want to make a hunter next.
Yep
You guys don't know an entire group of players if you think this is an enormous number. This is some low-tier grinding.

Kind of discouraging to hear something like this takes 100+ hours!
congrats, I guess.
107 hours in 2 weeks is not really impressive or "wow such a nerd". good for him that he has the time and that he found a game on which he enjoyed (I suppose?) spending 7 hours each day.

yeah, the website is utter garbage.
you need to try harder for a tag, man.
Reminder, web profile showcases greatly simplified look. Ingame looks much better. Here's my Warlock.

I just saw how the armor he's wearing looks ingame, it looks a lot cooler and detailed. There's a watercooling pipe on the front of it that's not seen in the web thing for example. It just looks all around better, even with the white.
Could the web versions be the PS3/360 models, or maybe WiiU's?

No skill required for this, just based on total luck.
If certain ascendent items would drop more frequently them most of the community would be at lvl 30.
So far I have all legendary armor with 1 exotic armor and at lvl 27.
I have 17 ascendent energy and 3 ascendent shards. No matter what I do, public events or daily story on 28 all this game insists on giving me is only ascendent energy. Simply cannot level past 27 because of RNG, I am literally stuck there no matter what I do.
I have 4 days and 18 hours in the game........ Pure fucking luck.

107 hours in Destiny? Core gameplay must be amazing if people want to experience the same couple hours of content over and over 50+ times in two weeks.
If you get better RNG than him, probably a lot faster. He has multiple chars too.

Could be. Or could be lots of people with addictive personalities, OCD, recently unemployed, under house-arrest, witness relocation, etc...

Wait... so there are no exotic sets of armor since you can only wear a piece at a time?
Add that to the list of dumb things about the game I guess. I would love to see the logic behind this.

Look at how many hours people put into low content games like Mario Kart, Madden, Call of Duty, Hearth Stone, Mine Craft, Street Fighters, Chess, Pong, Basketball, Tennis, etc. People do crazy things.
Fighting games were my most played games last gen. Mostly 1 vs 1 particular person, my rival. Least played games were story games. MP has endless content if the gameplay/design is good.
Yes you need the raid gear and you need to upgrade them. The raid gear can have more light, enough light to be level 30.

I wasn't criticizing any of those games. They are great games, that provide countless of hours of enjoyment making your own fun with friends and strangers using the system put in place inside of the game.

Agreed. I wish there were other ways to highlight your character's gear' even if it's just a better view mode for individual gear pieces (not just hitting triangle for a limited view).
I hit lvl 20 yesterday and have no desire whatsoever to hit 30 given the scarcity of good loot... If it happens, it happens, but I have better things to do.
