Destiny

The problem with that is that unlike Halo or CoD or any of the other games, you're already be forced to specialize in different weapons by virtue of the game's RPG mechanics. Your class dictates what type of weapons you get bonuses for. You have to level up your guns which means that you have to make a conscious decision to invest more time in using some guns over others, etc. There's already a layer of tactical decision making built into the game without resorting to this redundant mechanic.

As for the menu, well it sucks lol. Yeah, you can always just open up the menu and select something, but unless you have MLG reflexes it's hard to do that in the middle of a protracted gunfight without getting raped- that's why the radial dial hot-swap mechanic was invented in those other games.

Was going to add an edit but meh.

Don't be like that, babe.

Sorry mate. I got lots of grind to take care of. durw00t

I haven't played Destiny in over two months.

I'm a Level 20 Warlock now and I'm hunting for Exotic and Legendary gear. Xur is only available on the weekends, and I'm still not done with the campaign. I also downloaded the Dark Below.

Does anyone know the best places to find gold and purple gear?

Complete the campaign so you can unlock the Vanguard strikes. From there on you can choose between doing strike playlists, crucible and patrol missions to farm marks and gain rep to buy the gear the legit/non-lucky way(this is less troublesome and annoying than just farming for engrams) I recommend you buy one of the faction armor class bonds to rank their rep faster and then buy the gear with crucible marks. Its faster because it applies all Rep gained from strikes and crucible towards the faction. If you don't like crucible than just farm vanguard marks. Completing bounties will help level up ranks.

Oh and I almost forgot that the final Eris quest rewards purple gloves.

The fastest most efficient way is to raid because VoG armor will get you up to 30, and from there on you can try Crota's End(2nd Raid) and aim for the end game 32 gear. Granted you need to get to 24 so you can attempt Vault of Glass on normal. Oh and you gonna need a fireteam/clan.

Hope that helps, feel free to ask me anything.

I know no one cares, but I managed to beat Hard Mode Crota's End with all 3 chars after trying for 3 days straight. Loopsided battle, but them Gjallarhorns nuke the hell out of everthing >D Hope Bungie doesn't patch the strategy we used. They shouldn't but they are dumb like that.

Its also super funny how noobs are all over us when they see us rocking the awesome glowhoo shader. I feel like a legendary badass xD

A video of a 11 year old kid playing Destiny in a stream. He used his PS4 Share option to let someone else play his game because they promised to glitch one of his characters so it would level up faster. After this guy got control he deleted this kids level 31 and 26. He even deleted the kids exotic gun. Only thing left was his level 23. When the child's parents called Bungie, Bungie replied with "nothing we can do". I gotta agree though the kid handed all this over....life lesson learned imo.

That sucks.

That guy is a jerk for doing that.

Kid got #rekt

People are all angry demanding Bugnie restore their chars or give him free stuff. I say let him learn his lesson. He was lucky he learned not to trust strangers through a video game.

Maybe they could give a close approximation but I highly doubt they can just give you back your character.

yeah that guy was a dik but that kid was soo dumb. all his characters were above lvl 20. How the F**k would a glitch help increase their level? They needed light that you get from armor....you can't simply level them up lol. Anyways Im in agreement with bungie. They should give him anything.

On a side note Bungie did say something about trying to work on Destiny so deleting things would be less permanent. Which is stupid because it would be really hard to delete something on accident in that game. The more important the item is the longer you have to hold the button. Same goes for characters.

Anyone on here still playing and picked up House of Wolves.

I've been enjoying the new expansion.

I gave up a long time ago. The magic was just gone for me.

I haven't played in months but I heard the new expansion is pretty good. I would consider playing again but I don't want to have to buy both expansions in order to be up to date. So I may just wait for the rumored big expansion set coming later in the year, hopefully the two previously released expansions will be included and cheaper. Or I may just not play at all, I don't know.

Just kidding 😛

The HoW expansion has been a lot of fun. The new Prison of Elders game mode I think has been a big improvement to the game in terms of extra playable PvE content.

Also they have fixed a number of issues that make this game faulty. The game feels a lot less grinding now.

Also picked up a Vex Mthyoclast this weekend in the Vault of Glass. Only the second time I've played it on hard.
