The perks on this launcher are pretty friggin badass. (took pic from the net so note the beta build text)

Endgame is grinding rep and marks to buy legendaries. Keep doing dailies and weeklies to get upgrade material for those legendaries. Get lucky or use strange coins to buy exotics.

Pretty much it.

There's a little more to it right now. A few Queen's Wrath runs could get a 22 easily to 26 with the chest and helm. then a 26 could do the 28 weekly and the nightfall with someone willing to help. both of those get vanguard rep too.

this might sound weird, but at the moment, I would actually focus on interacting with people who can help you if you're looking to level up. in the 20-24 range. I am offering my services pretty much from now until I fall asleep as soon as I post this guide part 3 (it's shorter than the other two but contains info for 21-24 level people in it too).

Anyone on PS3 up for some queens bounty runs? I have a 23 Titan and just started the bounties on Earth, although I know the quests require strike teams.

Good times.

Is that from trailer footage or something? It does feel like a game gutted to resell in parts at times. From the single zone per planet to repetitve fairly simple mission design. I hope expansions and I suppose sequels give this universe and the gunplay a fleshed out experience we deserve.

Probably crucible, but good luck. Crucible is plagued with shotties/autos and the game utterly fucks you with your gun options from levels 1 to around 17. Can't tell you how many times I got the drop on one but my weapon was too shitty to handle the job. I normally use a handcannon and the only one available to me right now has a 3 round mag. The game is ridiculously skewed towards high-level players when it comes to PvP. Ridiculously.

In our 3rd ever attempt at Vault of Glass, my clan cleared Vault of Glass.

My personal gear haul after all three attempts:

Atheon's Epiloge
Praedyth's Revenge
Hezen Vengeance
Found Verdict

Non-gear Haul:

Shards (Can't recall the amount)
Chatterwhite Shader

So, I did the last story mission and the last strike (Dust Palace).

So the final boss is
an amorphous blob of Darkness that we don't even fight - just three reskins of other bosses. Very, very lame. The whole "the Darkness is receding and the Traveler is filled with light" stuff is so cliche I can't believe Bungie let it out the door.

i would describe it as barely the introduction to the universe. it's absolutely silly how little is fleshed out about each interesting concept or idea.
The Dust Palace boss was the first one in a strike that I've enjoyed. Forced lots of map movement, and required team firing to take down the boss and his henchmen. Really great fight and I wish more were like it, rather than a giant bullet sponge standing in the middle.

my favorite strike. real shame it's not available to our xbone friends yet

I'd every queens chest armour the same?

More ammo for shotguns and more ammo for scout rifle..

Or will getting another chest piece give different stats?

Do as many bounties as possible. Outside of bounties xp gain isn't that great. Spread it out across 2-3 days of bounties and so some story missions and you'll be good. Took me 7 hours combined.

Probably crucible bounties. Then once you get a few levels ahead of the story play through the entire story on hard mode.

Story/Bounties. At some point during the story when you start getting bounties they come through the postmaster and don't count towards the usual bounties, meaning you can get tons in a day as long as you check back at the tower after each mission. Plus each story mission has a huge xp bonus, just dart from checkpoint to checkpoint skipping what enemies you can.

If blue Engrams are staying the same, then save them all till the engram patch.

Then use then to level your Cryptarch in one go and have more chances at post patch Legendary Engrams.

Is there an easy way to get 500 Machine Gun kills for the exotic or do I just have to buy a boat load of special ammo synthesis?
