Still haven't managed a Volundr clear. This is infuriating and so disheartening. I don't feel like it should take me an entire week of playing this game ~2-3 hours (or more) a night just to clear the first milestone of the new content.

The Forges are not horde mode, Bungie really need to stop throwing that term around.

Why is every non strike/raid activity on a ridiculous timer?

Even the nightfall is gated, just bullshit in guise of difficulty

RIP my Gunsmith materials. Blown through them all buying mod components to exchange for the Black Armory mods.

Holy shit I'm broke.

I cleared it yesterday for the first time, I can help. Are you on PS4 and will you be playing tonight?

I think the Dredgen triumph is bugged.

The one where you have to equip all gambit weapons. I won two games with all gambit weapons and nothing...

What guns were you using? I'm not sure if Breakneck counts, knowing Bungie they dont consider it a Gambit gun

Yep, curated Threat Level with a Major Spec mod is better than Ikelos shotty. I've been tearing up enemies in forges, patrols and Gambit with it. No wonder Bungie nerfed Trenched Barrel.

Speaking of which, you can get Trenched Barrel on Threat Level without it being curated. After today's update, we'll be able to see what perks can roll on the last perk slot.

Hey guys, me and some friends just bought the forsaken dlc on a deal and are hopping back in fresh. We started at lvl 20 and 300 light but we beat Curse of Osiris last night and reached level 30 without the boost. Any tips on what to do to really get us back up to speed?

Another day, another Exotic. FINALLY got a Queensbreaker.

So whats the rationale behind not having Matchmaking for NF again?

This is absurd
I actually feel like it would be a little harder to do now because of having to organize with the Nightfall cards. Though I guess they could just do matchmaking without it and require you to party up if you want to do go for the 100k.

If you're on PSN, we can do refer a friend for some extra loot.

Guided games is still beta so I guess bungie still admits they haven't gotten it right but I don't know why they don't just add a matchmaking option to NF like they did for Haunted Forest, which worked perfectly.
Guided Games will be in beta until at least D3 if not indefinitely. It was an interesting idea but it really should have been something they did in addition to matchmaking.

Seed of Light was added as a random drop to Blind well so you don't need to wait for Mara or raid now to unlock all the classes. https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/47489

"Seed of Light added to the drop table of the Blind Well Heroic"

Edit: never mind see what Demi said below.

I think that patch note was because before you couldn't get seed of light if a Tier 3 went to Heroic, you're still limited to one afaik

what platform are you on homie?

PSN: JonRabbit, PL 614

I've gotten quite close multiple times but my friends and I just can't close the deal (the closest I've gotten is actually in matchmaking). I'm on an average of 4 nights (MST) a week. Appreciate any help you'd be willing to give.

Thanks for this, had no idea this changed.

I had only completed NF once in D2

Because no MM
While I feel for people with severe social anxiety, in all honesty I'm glad they don't have MM. Because I and probably most others never would have bothered finding a group otherwise, but it's a fantastic exprience when you've got a good group of equal skill levels and you're really going for it, making multiple runs perfecting your coordination, strategy & loadouts. I used to think strikes were just repetitive padding until I got into nightfalls, now it feels like mastering an old school shmup or something, but with teamwork thrown in and the excitement when someone lands a good drop at the end. I think it really is better this way.

Get on the Era discord, it usually doesn't take much effort to find a group there, especially earlier in the week when everybody hasn't done it yet, or on weekends.
