You should tell them you're bothered by this.
I don't suppose you or they were affected by daylight savings time changes on Sunday morning so you were late without realizing it?

My rankings for each version/expansion of the game's end-game main event would be...
1 - King's Fall (easily the most complete Raid experience)
2 - Prison of Elders and Skolas (the Skolas fight elevates it due to probably being my favorite encounter in the game)
3 - Vault of Glass (cool setting, no real complaints especially considering the "newness" of the experience)
4 - Wrath of the Machine (loved the setting/atmosphere but way too short with only two rehashed bosses)
5 - Crota's End (neat ideas, light on true boss encounters, and bugs/cheese during almost every run)

Was too busy grinding these damn wizards, I smiled when I saw the reply though.Hmm did no one really spot this? Or are we too cool to give a shout out
Actually I should go and turn this into a reddit thread "Bungie director recommends perfect story mission for grinding wizard kills!"
Must be hard to post when you're one misplaced comment away from controversy all the time.
Mostly because I think of Dinklebot when I hear it because that's the first time I heard it.

I'm currently in a great clan of chilled out UK players, my only gripe is I want to go to the lighthouse (again, not been since Year 2) and i think I'm good enough, but my crew is more of the chill older crowd, are they any UK Xbox Gaffers who need/want a lighthouse player? Also i am considering swapping to PS4 for Destiny 2. I just want to see what the exclusive content is for PS4 and what rewards (if any) Bungie is going to give legacy players...

We all live in the same time zone, so it has nothing to do with being late. Myself and two other friends started the clan we are in at launch. Now two of us have children, and despite this never being an issue with being interrupted, crying, etc. they still act like it is a hassle to play with us at times. And as for bringing it up, I did and was told to look on r/fireteams for randoms.

What do you get for finishing the new main quest?

Still working on the crucible part. Not sure what's after that.
This updated Crota raid is wayyyyy better. That being said, it's still at the bottom of my raid rating, haha.

You get the AoT class item.

That's actually better than I expected. I was expecting an emblem or shader.

The new Grimiore that came with AoT definitely gives it seems some insight into Destiny 2.
Also the reason the Cabal was able to go straight to Earth in the trailer is the loss of the Reefs main force of ships in their battle with Oyrx. There's no longer a barrier between Earth and dark space.
The Last City should've heeded the words of Dead Orbit. And started building a fleet. Now everyone on Earth has no where to run.
The Fallen are leaving the cosmodrome. Burning their house flags.
Eris is leaving the tower to find a way to end the Hive forever. Senses a large storm is coming.
The Queens brother is working with the House of Kings now. Might be why the Fallen are leaving. New Kell of Kells?
Mara possibly alive in some way? Reaching here.

Reading the Gaming side destiny thread and seeing people say Destiny has a shitty story after only playing the game for a month has me like.

I mean if you just take a look at vanilla and don't include the grimoire entires then they have a point. The games story telling doesn't get better until House of Wolves.

If I'm light level 348 am I basically SOL on upping my light level beyond a couple points unless I raid?

Question for all the destiny vets here. I played a lot of destiny in the previous expansions, but in RoI I never got that into it after I did the story stuff, just wasn't feeling the grind to max light so I have been on hiatus.
That being said, with the new update I'm interested to get back into the swing of it, but I'm only like LL 340. What is the best way to get my LL up these days? Is it still just running strikes and using coins? Are there any new gearing mechanics I should look into?

That's my point. It's entirely different now.
Everything I got yesterday from strikes decrytped at a higher light level than usual after the update.

Yeah mine is really bugged out. I get repeated notifications for things I've already unlocked and I'm definitely missing some nodes that should be filled in.
I'm wondering if we'll see one of the cutscenes involving the Queen's Brother that was removed from D1 get reworked and used in D2.

Ishtar commander or any of the other apps will cause this. Any website that uses your account will also trigger it.
True but how many people complaining even made it past the dark below. It's not like it's just Gaf either seems like a lot of the press don't like Destiny either.

That's good to know. Hopefully it will go a bit quicker now so I can get to some raiding.

My point is don't come screaming at us that the story is shit, when everything's changed 3 years later. It's not Destinys fault that you haven't kept up.
Yup, 1600hrs in this game and already feeling the hooks sinking back in with just a few hours last night. Screw it, Imma get my Tshirt!
I love the new remix of Crotas End. That said they didn't bother to fix the litany of issues that have been around since it launched. Guess Mini Crota is the true Crota, glitch free. Oh well, once every 4 weeks isn't a big deal, and the challenge should make some people step up and learn swords.
Question: Are the new raid shaders random drops? Kiosk says complete the Weekly Raid, but none of us got it with free slots open and doing the challenge.

Time for Hawkins school of sword to come back
I had engrams on my character from strikes I did on Monday. Had a power outage and never got a chance to hit the Cryptarch that night. Also leveled up the Vanguard on Monday and just went for my reward yesterday. My character jumped two light levels after i did both of those via enfusion from the new items

None of our group got the shader to unlock in the kiosk, nor did it drop from Crota himself. Bugged? Super rare?

Honestly, just playing the game, doing strikes and picking up faction packages are all pretty much the way to go. I'm not sure what the cap is for regular strikes, but you'll be getting higher gear capped off to at least 365. The heroic strikes drop blues up to 390. Faction packages seem to now go up to 400 and then there's always exotic engrams as well. You're pretty much guaranteed to reach a higher light level by playing just about anything at this point.

My normal raid group has shrunk down to 3 or 4. We tried with randoms last night and it went horribly. Kids being idiots. Quite frustrating. We were trying to do the challenge mode stuff and we were telling people to
. Guy goes ahead and does the opposite and when we asked him why, he just said "well I got a chest piece out of it".
I'm not one for rage quitting. But that was my first time where I was legit okay with doing it. So I did. Now I have the Crota checkpoint on my hunter. Going to try and do challenge mode on my other chars this weekend.
stop attacking the witch so we could kill adds

If you don't want to get into specifics, I think we can understand. But forget those dudes. I'd say check here and the Discord for groups. Or if you're worried about schedules and all that, there's https://dadsofdestiny.net/ which is a pretty big group I believe.

And this is the reason why I won't go anywhere near LFG or r/fireteams. A bunch of incompetent people who don't know how to listen/don't know the raid mechanics or are unwilling to learn them.

It's nothing like that. I just meant that there are years of memories with those guys. Hard to just walk away from that. As for schedules, my kid is in bed by 7:30 CT each night and I have a wife who is perfectly fine with me playing games so this has wasn't an issue until recently with them.

Crota is okay when you have a group of people who know what to do. It's like a 6-man Strike.
It only gets rough when LFGesus decides to smite you with idiots.
