Looking to start a fresh raid pretty much in the next half hour. Looking for 2.
This is everyone's first time doing it, so looking for other first timers or some people with patience as we work our way through. We aren't going in totally blind, but will have the regular pains of executing.
All of us have atleast completed WoTM, with 3 of us having completed every raid.

I don't know. While there is for sure a lot of team shooting (I don't have much of an issue with this...a good team can work together to flush out the others), Ive had plenty of one on ones. Heck, Sometimes I can handle 2 on 1s when you pick your lines (and they aren't very good).
Ive had some sweaty matches...others curb-stomped. Felt about the same as D1 to me.
How does it compare to the Manannan SR4 with Explosive Rounds?

The hand cannon is interesting, because it has triple tap, but the slow fire rate keeps you from taking full advantage. Weapon wise FWC is the way to go.

Nope! It will always detect anything that can be equipped. Even stuff that you may not have picked up from the postmaster yet counts.
edit: you can also be paranoidlol
Even if that stuff is on another character? I got the paranoia down haha
Pan? You mean hammer titan ulting?

Trials sniper (They Long Walk) is probably the best in class. Barring that, try to find a Velada-D. It's a hakke, so comes from pretty much anywhere.

Dire Promise is at the fastest RoF for HC's in the game. Other HC's are either the same RoF or slower.

Got a strong chest piece from faction rewards that when fused put me up to 299!
Nearly there now, gonna feel good to max out and be caught up.

I could not disagree more. It is the fastest firing hc archetype and headshots are crispy. I proc triple tap all the time and the magazine is huge to begin with.
I'm sure it's not for everybody but defintely don't sleep on Dire Promise.
Haha, yep.

I say that as a Hand Cannon problem more than an issue with Dire Promise, but you're right this isn't a universal problem. I'm just so used to the Call to Serve's fire rate that I'm not happy with Dire Promise.

Eventually found a group through guided games (after a half hour)
Zero communication with my squad. No one had a mic.
Completed the nightfall first try.
Regular matchmaking could have saved me a lot of time.
I wouldnt mind doing NF's again but not if I spend longer "matchmaking" then actually playing through it

Still need for the prestige nf?
No I was talking about in PUBG one of the weapons is a frying pan that blocks bullets.

Robes of Optimacy from a bright engram! Wow, I never get armour from those.

yup yup! my psn id is deadpool_jlp
Oh, yeah, it's nothing like a scout of course. I prefer HCs in general so it's just a different kind of question. Call to Serve is lovely, I don't usually like scouts all that much but that and Mannanan really do it for me.

The whole Optimacy set is really cool looking. Managed to get that complete without spending real money. Perfect for the Arc class as it kinda looks like itd fit that role.

Going back and forth from D1 and D2 made me realize that the exotic abilities in D2 aren't as cool as the ones found in D1, I think this is another area where pvp balance fucked pve players; can't have an ability that's too insane or you risk breaking pvp.
I don't recommend praying nope. Haha
Reset was yesterday, if you've been stuck for days, there must be some milestones you can do currently?

You need it for basically everything that isn't the story. If you want to do strikes or raids you need it.
There is no dismantle or delete API call. These apps cant, even if they really really wanted to, lose or delete anything from your inventory.
As for why DIM/Loadouts/Ishtar Commander are better than the official companion app:
- Theres less clutter and you get right down to inventory management without all the extra bloat the Conoanion app has
- The options are generally more flexible (take DIM: you can maximize Light, or set to farming mode which sends all dropped gear off to vault to prevent Postmastering stuff, a restore previous Loadout button etc)
- They keep up with the community. For instance these apps added armor % rolls for T12 hunting, something the official app never supported
Most of all theyre just faster tho
Interestingly you can do all the destination activities without it, in instances with others, which ought to include Flashpoints and the current faction rally.
You won't get too quickly into the far endgame without it, but for someone who has no interest in raiding OR PvP, it could be worse.

Thanks, guys. Going to read that post and figure out what I need to focus on tonight. I have new milestones after the reset I can do.
Also, thanks for the informative post my fellow Sherpa clan member Hawkian
Np! If there are any exotic quests you haven't done yet, it's a great time for it.Thanks, guys. Going to read that post and figure out what I need to focus on tonight. I have new milestones after the reset I can do also.

3. Most players that heavily use Sniper Rifles in shooters go with lower sensitivity. It allows for more accuracy when you're reaction-aiming. Once you're used to it, you just kind of stick with it.
If 8 works for you, have at it. It's advantageous in close quarters melee situations. Only change what you're used to if you're having problems with being accurate on your current setting.

I've been using 10 but I use KontrolFreeks analog covers so it's sorta designed for it. They're actually nice if you play lots of console FPS.
I'm trying 3 right now. So far the only thing I really need to get use to is the slow turning radius but man is it a lot slower lol

This shit is getting ridiculous. Literally 9 times out of the last 10 I've tried to go to the Tower, the game either hangs in orbit infinitely or outright crashes. It was doing the same thing to me yesterday and would and had been getting increasingly worse over the week.

20 ranks of each faction:
Dead Orbit - 15 shotguns
New Monarchy - 15 Auto rifles
Future War Cunt - A dozen sniper rifles
Why?!!?

I want the helmet but Tess keeps giving me crap

Yup. That's why a higher sensitivity is advantageous in melee situations. You're less likely to run into a situation where someone runs into your blindspot and they two of you are awkwardly melee-ing air trying to find each other.

I personally found it to be the easiest yet. You can save a lot of time by having a hunter go invis and hacking the four pillars. That room can pretty much be skipped which was huge for our fireteam. We got to the boss with about 7 minutes.

I feel like rng is generous in destiny 2
Got 17/19 exotic weapon
All exotic on my Titan which is 305 and all raid armor in 2 run
Half a run (missing Calus ) in my new warlock started 6 day ago and already 304. Just 1 point from 305 (head is 304). Got 8 exotic already.
And now half of my blue drops at 300 so I ca. Infuse them good
