Dismantle them. You don't need to be hoarding stuff like that and the blues should have been given the boot long ago.

Cool, thanks. Thought I saw someone mention something about saving blues for the Gunsmith or whatever, but I guess I misunderstood.

I'm going to happily get rid of around 1,000 blues now.

They probably meant blue weapon mods as once you reach 280 these can be converted into purples.

The first thirty seconds of the raid already make it the best raid ever.

The villain actually talks. That beautiful fucking aesthetic. All those Cabal that simply stand and watch as you enter the ship. It's all so great. And I love the premise of the raid so much - this big Cabal emperor inviting us in to test our Light. So cool.

Yeah Oryx
really needed to talk in his.

I'd be in the dick
Raid Checkpoints are still only for the fireteam leader, right? In the event we don't finish it tonight, I want to at least know how to save my progress.

I know most are probably trying to raid, but does anyone want to run through a Nightfall on xbox? Just need one.

Every time I do a public event, I get two pieces of blue gear that are, if I'm extremely lucky, 1 level of light higher than whatever is currently in that slot. More often than not, they're they same or 1-2 levels lower. I've played for three hours today and gone from 226 to 228.

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, but at this rate I'll hit 260 in a few months.

They just work differently.
You can either do the main room again (which is pretty easy) to return to the step you were at, or there are shortcuts that let you skip entire encounters. We found skips from the start to both the baths and the gardens so far, which was where we left it tonight.

Just want to reiterate how such fun little things Adventures are.

They are...but I feel Lost Sectors/Adventures are wasted currently, there is little incentive to do them. I hope Bungie has more planned for the end game, right now it is very thin. Really surprised after D1 the end game is as thin as this. At least a few heroic Lost Sectors/Adventures every week?

Yea but pretty useless end game unfortunately.

Just played a PvP game, tied 62 each with 5 seconds left, we have to flags each team trades a kill - we lose 65-64... ok.

Yep, I am blown away Bungie has done nothing to address the end game. It's worse in D2, because the game showers you now with Legendaries, and exotics. The game needs more than NF/Raid every week, it needs more content with meat to it.

Anymore raids going on tonight? Most of my group is off due to a power outage so I'm suddenly free the rest of the night. PSN: TheCthultist, 275 Warlock

The clan I was with skipped me over for their 6th raid slot for someone from a different clan.

That stings pretty bad, considering half the clan are my high school friends. :/

Pretty easy to fix also. Complete 5-10 flashpoints a week for a powerful engram, complete 10 different lost sectors in a week for a powerful engram, complete all the challenges in all 4 worlds in 1 day (once per week), etc.

Isn't it better to wait until 259? That way the purple gear you get, will be quality stuff.

Look, sure if you want to power level. But for the casual player it is not going to matter and it will save this player the stress of trying to grind out blues.

Just running publics imo is not a good end game strategy....it needs something substantial. Plus bungie has not shown the ability to make changes that are needed very fast at all. Lost sectors def should be used more, and maybe adventures.

So then to clarify, if one wanted to power level, part of that involves 20 hours of slowly grinding out blues? I just keep getting the impression from posts here/reddit that people are grinding out 280+ in like, 15 hours including campaign, and I've sat here grinding blues from heroic events for like 8 hours and barely moved.

Second encounter question.

We get all 4 locked in and run to the middle to shoot a lantern. But the platform in the middle is not protecting them and they're dying. What are we missing?
