[THE GREY CARDINAL]

As of December 2nd, trophy rarity on PS4...

Normal raid 14.9%
Hard raid 6.3%
Fully upgrade exotic 10.7%
Fully upgrade legendary 14.5%

This really confuses me. Furthermore, it lists PS3 beside PS4 so are these the trophy tallies from both systems?

Does XB1 have a similar system? Are the numbers similar? I have a shitload of upgraded legendary and exotics, as many of you guys do too...I guess we are the hardcore fanbase among a sea of casuals and probbably more likely, a sea of people who gave up on the game awhile ago.

 

[FyreWulff]

PS trophies are combined across PS3 and PS4, they're not considered separate like the 360 and the One.

Imo the best PvE setup is Fatebringer, Ice Breaker and Hezen Vengence.
When you get rolling with those shit looks like a michael bay movie

For some boss fights and super privileged people obviously Gjallahorn works great too.

That's exactly my setup haha. It's like a cheat code for pve. You just demolish everything.

Almost too good but shhh Bungie is probably lurking this thread right now ;D

Also I can see this exact setup being great for the new raid IF there are Knights with arc shields. If not, replace Fatebringer with VoC and you're good to go!

 

[kidko]

ugh, invited by 27 to do nightfall, has 26 in party already. Why did I even bother

I use Corrective Measure.

 

[RickyRozay]

Is anyone doing a ps4 hard run for atheon only? Im just trying to finish it up before the refresh on my 29 titan.

 

[HighOnPCP]

I use Corrective Measure.

I still don't have that -.- along wth Found Verdict, foil and timepiece.
kinda crazy because I run multiple hard raids every week ughh

 

[Lima]

I use Corrective Measure.

If I get it today I would use that over Heze too. It's a pretty bad launcher to be honest. Ultra slow fire rate, the cluster bombs are just for show they deal absolutely zero damage (I still think this is a bug) and no tracking yo. I need tracking on my rocket launchers. With only 8 shots you can't miss one. Especially on bosses like Atheon that like to run around like they are high on pcp.

My setup at the moment is

Vex (solar)

Light/Beware (arc)

Corrective Messure (void)

if I need more range:

VoC (solar)

Patience and Time (Void)

Hezzen's Vengence (solar)

Up close and personal

Hawkmoon

(Raid Shotgun, don't recall the name)

(Iron Banner LMG, don't recall the name) extra stability, field scout, spray and pray

 

[Twilight Gap]

my pve loadouts:

raid/story/strikes when not leveling weapons
fatebringer
icebreaker
admonisher III (void RL with tracking)

oracles
atheon's epilogue
icebreaker
admonisher III

atheon
atheon's epilogue
praedyth's revenge
gjallarhorn

if VoC drops for me anytime soon, i'll use that in place of fatebringer in some parts of the raid

 

[NeOak]

In pvp vex is absolute shit compared to other exotics. Pvp imho is handcannons, shotguns, and heavy weapons only at this point. Hand cannons thorn and hawkmoon are insane TLW is not far behind.

True. The Vex is still fucking terrible. It can reliably outclass the clown of a gun Suros now but that's about it. If you can aim and want to win use hand cannons.

No, it is not. I kill people who use hand cannons with the Vex. Why can't people figure out the trick to do heatshots with it?

And I do have TLW and Thorn. Still wreck with the Mythoclast.

 

[Lima]

Reset in 30 minutes. Nexus strike coming up. Better be solar burn Bungie.

I've done plenty of raids and have just one Corrective Measure. The great thing about it is that you can get like 300 ammo with 100 ammo in each clip which is absolutely ridiculous. Plus, it's void too which helps.

I like the cluster bomb effect of HV over the GHorn one but it doesn't really do any damage which is weird. I don't want to use Truth because it isn't worth an exotic slot. Maybe It's good after the buff, haven't checked it out yet.

I got all those in my rotation too except for CM and the shotgun!
They al work great in their own way that's for sure I just prefer rocket launchers for example because I like to blow stuff up

Also like I said I don't have CM but the Iron Banner LMG (Jolder's Hammer) is really good, it's my go to machine gun.

Now I know what RL you're always using! I had a Void Steel Oracle with tracking and I loved it but trashed it on accident. I wish Bungie would increase dismantling time for legendaries just a little.

Also Gjallahorn ;-;

my RL is amazing but i wish it had better velocity. it's the only thing that holds it back.

 

[Lima]

I really need to get me one with tracking one of these days. Especially for crucible. It's a must imo on RL.

The new raid launcher will fill that spot pretty soon though.

It's like a legendary purple baby Ghorn.

 

[Noisepurge]

This really confuses me.
I have a shitload of upgraded legendary and exotics.

upgrading those things is slow and takes a lot of ascendant energies. And i had so many guns that i couldn't just use one exotic all the time. I mean, i think i was level 30 before i had my first exotic gun maxed out.

And yeah, looking at ANY trophy numbers, the percentages plummet drastically after the first easy ones. This is why something like 30% should be considered common, not rare.

That thing DOES have tracking? I could've sworn I read no tracking for it...ok bye bye Hezen Vengeance nice knowing you!

looks kinda cool. has good reload and velocity too. i wonder if the cluster bombs will make up for its blast radius because then you can max its velocity instead

 

[Lima]

Yes my friend it does. It will be a highly sought after item from the new raid.

 

[raindoc]

15 mins 'til Nightfall. Equipping Arc weapons now. Pfffh.

 

[Lima]

Man it feels like it has been a year since we've had solar burn. Make it so Bungle. Ice Breaker and God horn want some action.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Last week of Vault of Glass..kinda I had some great raids, looking forward to what Crota's Ends bring!

 

[Hyun Sai]

No more solar burn may be Bungie's way of balancing those weapons lol.

 

[Shito]

15 mins 'til Nightfall. Equipping Arc weapons now. Pfffh.

Yep. Last Nexus was void, solar is "banned", so there is a high chance this one will be arc.
Or no burn at all. Ha ha ha. Ha.

 

[Rubenov]

Unless you know precisely what you could and couldn't hit before and you can't anymore you might be imagining things. Send it is a +50 boost to range while Hammer Forged gives +40. Should be fairly marginal

Yes, PVP maps usually have people posting themselves in predictable spots and I knew I could take them out in an exact number of shots from a certain spot... now I can't.

 

[Carn82]

Has there been any news about the lack of '1st public event of the day' rewardpackage?

 

[Hyun Sai]

No, little light.

 

[Carn82]

Don't call me that. (or is it Dont call me Little Light? -_-)

 

[FyreWulff]

I think we have to wait to see if it's still broken when everything resets

Then the pitchforks.

The pitchforks will also be nerfed in the next patch.

 

[DjRalford]

Solar burn, yeehah
