Just for matter of curiosity I was the upgrade path of my Sunsinger and I found these items interesting:

+ Aiming on air you make will hold you in place like flying.
+ Gain a addiction grenade (I don't know how it works).
+ Melee creates Orbs of Light.

I'm at half path yet :(

The "gain additional grenade" and "aim while you're in the air" are on the same line so you can't have both. I like the ability to hang in the air while aiming. It's what I've been wanting since I started playing. Has some strategic uses as well. I don't think an additional grenade is that big of a deal since you can spam them when you activate radiance anyway.

Precisely.

However, I can see someone making the case and wrecking with the extra grenade over the Angel of Light.
 
Oh no, I finally finished the 25 strikes for the bounty and now I need to earn 10000 xp in crucible...I'm not so great at that but it looks like I'll be playing all day and all night. Oh well, I maxed out my vanguard marks for the week so I might as well have something to play for. Who knows? Maybe I'll get lucky and get some great purple gear since everyone says only the crappy players get anything lol.

That's not that much. Control matches go to 20,000. If you are average on your team, that means you should be getting at least 3,333xp per match. So 5-10 crucible matches, depending on your abilities.

I'm so hopelessly behind. All my friends are in 20+ territory and I'm stuck at 7. They've got no incentive to come play with me. So that's it. My main motivation to play (this is what all my friends are playing) is gone.

Fuck.

What? Why do they have no incentive to play with you? They can get rare & legendary drops doing any mission. If you're on PS4, feel free to add me - my friends and I will help you level up faster & play through the story with you. Plus, they could use the time to level up their subclasses or another character.

Btw, it's actually pretty fun solo ... game feels totally different. My PSN ID is the same as my name here.

So it doesn't just count kills/deaths? I just got the same exotic bounty and I'm terrible at PvP. Losing 75 points a death is gonna mean it'll take ages for me to get to 10,000.

Got my first exotic weapon bounty, trying to decide between the one that gives Bad Juju and the one that gives Thorn. Any opinions on which is better? Or are they comparable and it's more of a personal preference thing?
 
I must have just used up all of my luck forever. Had five blue engrams, so went to the Cryptarch, got a mote of light, two other things, a Legendary cloak for a Hunter (I'm a Warlock but still) and a Legendary pulse rifle (77 Wizard).

My first Legendary items, and looking at the Reddit, only a 4.4% chance of getting a Legendary outta a blue engram.

Guess I should quit.

Slow grind to get my Legendary feet. Other than that I guess I work towards Legendary weapons.

Very little incentive or desire to do anything else because there really isn't much else to strive for. :lol
 
Man... I hope I find an Exotic primary soon. Seems that you can't really start working out your armor build until you figure out what guns you're going with.

Guys, I have 19 Legendary Engrams. Should I decrypt them all and cry into my controller at all the blues/greens or should I keep living in my fantasy world that they are all purple and in my vault?

OT yet having the same old and bad mistake.

Warlock is the powerful class.

Sunsinger sub-class is the most powerful killer machine I always saw in Destiny... it SUPER is like dropping non-stop NOVA-BOMB over the victims.

Please explain this.
 
What mission is it you have to complete to get the weekly EXP boost?

I wish the EXP progress bar to your next Mote of Light would render on the screen where the old EXP bar used to be. In Diablo 3 it's real nice having that Paragon bar at the level cap. It's nice seeing the exp you get by killing dudes on that bar. Seems like something Bungie will patch in eventually.

Mote of Light progress also seems real slow, but maybe that speeds up after some grimoire rank ups.

I need to level my Titan at some point. I have an Exotic body piece for it. The Amerntarium or whatever it is called. I had 3 legs for it at some point, but tossed out a few to get ascendant shards for my warlock main.

Current list of legenadries/exotics I have:

Gauntlets for Warlock Exotic
Body for Titan Exotic
Legendary body for Warlock
Legendary body for Titan
Legendary Assault Rifle (two of them)
Legendary Pulse Rifle
Legendary Sniper Rifle
Legendary Boots for Warlock
Legendary Boots for Titan(twice---both dismantled)
Legendary Ship
Legendary Shader
Legendary Class Specific Warlock Band

Most of these have come from engrams dropped except the body lock piece, the feet lock piece, the class specific band, and the gauntlets came from Agent of Nine last week.

Cryptarch and I scheming together.

Got my first Legendary piece of gear, and I am not disappointed.

If it's for Bad Juju (the pulse rifle) then you don't lose points on a death. You just gain points for a kill and aparantly more for a Warlock kill.

Thorn's got a small clip and a pretty long reload, apparently, but people keep calling Bad Juju the worst exotic for some reason. Up to you, I guess.

Destiny wiki says otherwise. Are you sure?

Edit: bad juju is the worst? God dammit. I thought people said it was Thorn?

Bad Juju looks to be the best of the bunch to me.
Great for anything but bosses. But usually on bosses i'm not using my primary.

6 pages into ot4 already eh. edit: became 7 while I was typing this post. if this pace continues, we'll be at the cusp of OT5 by the end of the weekend.

aren't you guys all ready to quit? Certainly you're not constantly playing or thinking about the next time you can play or looking at the grimoire or the minutia in the Destiny app or reading up on exotic bounties or racing to get your last few coins for Xur or considering your options to gear up for the raid. no see the DROPS, Bungie better fix this shit quick. or else no one will be playing.

I know I for one am certainly not going through withdrawals from being unable to play since I'm in a rural cottage in serenbe right now...
... oh right.

this fucking game.

Everyone who asked our pmed me about the Strange Coin farm- sorry, Bungie patched that shit less than 20 minutes after it was confirmed working. but don't worry, the true hero of Destiny, Xur, Agent of the Nine, will be back again next week.

Dax! Sweet OT. you can have all the HW ammo. Thanks for linking to my posts :) I suggest also including a mention of www.destinylfg.com and .net for fireteams doing non-matchmade content.

I won't be able to play at all seriously over the weekend, but I'm looking to raid Monday night. oh and then queen's wrath stuff comes out Tuesday.

this one just might have some legs.

Guess how many Legendaries/Exotics/Rares/Greens/Mats?

Will post a video in a moment.
