Destiny Thread (Bungie) - 9/9/14

I really really dislike how much pull that ******* reddit has with Bungie

Eh, it is a gift and curse with those cats.  Those guys are the reason why Rift is no longer an Iron Banner game mode (which is a positive, I actually agree that is the worst game to use for IB), and their whining on that Reddit also contributed to the new light level infusion system that came into affect from the April Update.

Downside, those ******* were the reasons snipers dominated PvP for most of Year 2 (yet they still whined about shotguns) and why pulse rifles are still currently the god damn primary meta of PvP.

You can actually earn "non-vendor IB items" before you hit Rank 5 at end of match rewards, Raptor.  I've seen it happen for a few ppl in my IB group on Day 1 this past Tuesday.

Not sure what you're experiencing, but I think would have been mentioned here if that is the case...

So I had a clever dragon drop and it was god roll braced frame with some others. I don't remember.... I tried it out. I didn't really like it.... so i infused it lol

Hand cannons for me feel the best right now. That vendor palindrone is op as hell

Fusion rifles have always been my go-to special weapon for crucible

I was really hoping we would get a Y3 version of Perun's Fire, but apparently those dusty iron engrams don't decrypt into weapons

Got the whole team up to 371 with IB last night

 

[itsaNYthing]

Real good week. Ranked up all three characters to above 375 with IB and beat the Raid twice. Got lucky with LFG last night, found a really chill group of 380+ to raid with. Only wiped twice.

Its not even a grind really no more really.

Anybody kno if blue engrams are capped at 365 that drop from strikes? Im talking about the ones that actually drop not the ones you have to decrypt.

That is correct

 

[Warmachine85]

That is correct

Boooooooooo lmao i aint trying to do this raid to get a higher lvl.

(All) packages drop at higher than 365. That means Queen's Bounty, Gunsmith, etc., too. So do Iron Banner drops.

Yea ive been running banner but got burnt out i got up to 368. I didnt kno about the gunsmith tho thanks watson

 

[bigjny88]

The weird one is Variks up on The Reef.  His CoE packages all drop with a max light of 365, but his regular House of Judgement faction rep packages drop with a max light of 385.

I felt like Bungie should've tweaked that one where CoE packages still give end-game max light rewards like the raids, but keep the faction cap for House of Judgement packages.  It feels inconsistent the way they executed the Challenge of Elders rewards for Rise of Iron.

 

[7th Chamber]

What's the max light right now? 387?

 

[bigjny88]

What's the max light right now? 387?

When Hard Mode Raid comes out on the 18th, the max will be 400...............yes, 400 LL

 

[biggie62]

You can get drops up to 390+ if you have the right light level and are lucky. But it becomes much harder to get gear above 386.

 

[7th Chamber]

Yeah, once I hit 383, I started getting 387 drops. I'm at 386 right now, but I don't think I'll try to get any higher than that since hard mode is right around the corner.
