They cap at 365!
Yeah. I am. Figured out the problem though. Inventory full and every blue that I couldn't pick up has been pushed out of the Postmaster thanks to a shit-ton of greens. My own fault
O well.

O well.
Green items don't go to post master? Do you not auto delete them on the way?

Need a warlock to help for the monitors. We're at the fourth one and someone had to leave. smh Join keanBurke
Couldn't quite make out what we agreed on when we split up: Are we gonna try again today?
Not sure whether I really want to run the entire thing again though.
Thanks all for the responses!
I didn't... but the Postmaster was full with blue engrams and not the loot that dropped after a strike. It's my own fault ... but that's OK. I'm enjoying Destiny at the moment. Loads of stuff to collect. Just wished the grind would be less harsh.

Normal strikes only drop 'till 340, if you wanna get higher you need to do heroics, which drop 'till 365 light. Higher than that is raids, packages & skeleton chests.
Not likely without a lot of pain put upon the others. Lowest light is 360-365 but would recommend as high into 360 as possible as the later on it gets in the raid the more important him being alive gets
It's scaled so probably a lot of effort for very low light gear.
Strikes
Engrams
PVP
They should focus on that.

Minimum light of the raid gear is always 365, so it is actually worth it. The beginning bits are very doable with a 350-360 person anyway.
ok, i'll keep at the SIVA strikes.
We had a pretty good run nuking omnigul with 3 hunters last night. got from 350 -> 353 in about 30 mins
but then by part 3 they'll struggle a lot and it'll become a massive chore.
I'm not one to say do or not do, but sometimes I feel like people often just jump in far too early and actually becomes a detriment to the work others have put in,
although one of my buddies when we tried for world first beat it with us at 367 but he was an absolute beast..
Just some thoughts really.
Great! Thanks a lot.
My friends want to level me up for Trials and I'm too lazy to farm Omnigul. So it's their idea, not mine

Well, you can always stop after the Death Zamboni.

You're not going to get that high up by trials even running the raid you'll probably maybe hit 357 after it...
Sure you could, it's just never been my type of style. I like going into things to win/complete them.
I'd rather grind PVP and Sepkis for hours with a friend so we can then get through the whole thing without breaks later and gain better rewards.

Yeah... that sucks, but on the bright side, since we'd already gone to orbit before doing the puzzle, imagine how pissed we'd be if we played for hours, beat the boss, and still didn't get the final chest.
I'm not sure if I'll be on tonight. Tomorrow night might be better for me.
Marvel
could never
Go Heroic.
Totally doable, esp if you have two higher level Guardians friends or rando's.
Ah beaten by my buddy, Jinjo lol
I won't have much time to play from tomorrow until Monday, so I think I'll have to find another group to get it done today. Sorry.

It really is. I love running this raid- it's both fun and challenging. I think what makes it so good is the demand for constant communication. If people aren't talking to each other, it's going to fall apart. This raid demands a team effort, and while VoG is still my ultimate favorite raid to play, I think WotM absolutely nails everything that a raid should and needs to be.

Maaan, I love matching up with a great team, and doing work... But seriously what's with these rewards?

I think my new favorite skybox is from the view you get heading towards Archon's Keep.
Any tips on how to get past 345 light level? I've been grinding through regular strikes for days, havent budged for a while. I'm in a really awkward spot, too under leveled to do the heroic strikes (keep getting paired with 340 peeps, not really in a position to be carrying lower levels). So I've been slowly building up legendary marks to buy better gear, but it's taking forever...

Canis here - I'm still not sure that's case, is it? Has anyone confirmed leaving and coming back resets? It just seems odd that it would if you unlock the player banner and all, no?
I'll be on 5:30pm eastern time today and can make time basically all weekend if people want to regroup to go again. Tonight i might try and run the final boss again with a group from my checkpoint and see what happens after we
hopefully
EDIT: NVM, looks like Reddit's on it. FML i would have been crushed lol. Whelp, full raid incoming on Friday or Saturday haha! https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/551b9s/monitor_progress_the_monitors_remain_active/
Talos here and yeah I'm reading on reddit that going to orbit resets the monitors. I thought we held it down on our side pretty well Canis. Don't mind joining you for the last checkpoint. Send me a friend request if you're up for it.

Now that the jubilation from last night's clear has worn off (and my coffee is finally kicking in), I want to touch on a part of the raid and make sure if it's just me, or if anyone else has had an issue with it. Spoiler tag just in case:
When it's time to kill the elemental servitors in the last 2 phases of Aksis, has anyone else picked up a cannon that appears to be arc or void when it's not really arc or void?
I had 2 instances where my cannon was clearly crackling with blue lightning, but did no damage to the arc servitor, causing us to wipe... shit was super frustrating! I was having to pay extra attention to the element of the capitan that was dropping the cannon, and double check the call outs for servitors.
Just wondering if I was having personal issues, or if it was some sort issue in the game that makes cannons appear different than how they really are. You never really know when it comes to good 'ol Bungie hijinks!

Yeah I just saw the reddit thread too :/
i'm down for a raid complete to just get the drops at this point and see what happens for the hell of it. I think we had a pretty good lock too. Seems like random SIva swarms and failed (my fault a few times lol) boss stuns mostly did us in. I'll def shoot you a FR after work today. What was your full handle again?
Edit: Sounds good man i'll shoot you a FR. I'd also love to set up another full raid for this weekend. Might see if i can get my titan up to 365ish in time too.

Triple Tap and Spray and Play.
Thx. Is high impact still the best archetype for a boss DPS sniper? Or did Bungie nerf it too much?
Is the Devil'a Dawn more of a PvP sniper or PvE?
QuickDraw does feel great on DD to quickly line up boss shots but 3 shots in the mag and Life Support / Firefly are worthless for boss DPS.
TTK's Vendor 1KYS with Triple Tap and Mulligan still seems like the best Legendary PvE sniper I have. I know Devil'a Dawn does bonus damage to Fallen too but not sure if it's better than potentially 5 1KYS shots with Triple Tap activated vs. 3 of DD and with worse stability/aim assist.
Thoughts?

I haven't seen this happen, but when I pick up a cannon other than scorch, I actually pause my running to make sure of which one I have. The lighting in that room can make shock and null look similar, especially if you're empowered when holding one.

I find it too easy to think you have arc or void cannon when you actually have the other.
Man, Crucible is going to be incredibly frustrating if there are a bunch of Outbreak Primes... and I might as well not even go near Iron Banner.
It's only been a week and I already feel like I am left behind. I feel your pain, XAL. But there will always be people here who are willing to run through old stuff.
So the serious grinds are 350 to 365 and then 365 to 380, right?

Outbreak Prime ain't shit in PvP

Got the Outbreak, having a blast with this thing in heroic.
And I still can't find a warlock helmet that I like (since the iron ones have shit rolls). Hopefully the IB gear is just as good.

Meh. Nothing will be as bad as Year 1 Crucible post-match drops, with the worst players consistently getting a Gjallahorn. Now THAT conjured up some salt.

I wouldnt worry about it that much. Its not OP or anything for pvp, hawksaw is a better pulse rifle there. Although crucible, as always, does get annoying when everyone is spamming the same weapon. Its tiring hearing that same sound effect/seeing it on kill screen so much.
The grind between 350 and 365 is easy, farm omnigul for 2 hours and you are done. 365 to 385 will depend on your luck. I did the raid 3x turned a bunch of exotic engrams, ranked up a lot and in the end i capped out at 378, it was impossible for me to go over that because everything that dropped was at max 381 and i had a 365 artifact holding me back and keeping my avg light level low even though everything else was higher. I did 3x eris rank ups, some skeleton keys etc to try and get one and nada. Finally the raid gave me one yesterday and i instantly got up to 381 which then allows me to get higher light on all my slots etc. So it can take forever if you dont get lucky with some artifacts.
Yesterday a friend of mine jumped in on a group that had 4 monitors activated and were killing Aksis to get the 5th monitor, when they did, the lasers for the 5th monitor were still up so does that mean everyone in the fireteam has to be present from the start? Has anyone confirmed?
my PVE 1K stare has triple tap and casket mag. It turns it into 7 shots per mag sniper. I call it a PVE god roll.

The weapon is not that OP in PvP. I still think a good roll of pdx/hawksaw/grasp will beat it.
