My god this game takes a long time to load. When I hit play (through Steam) it takes 60s+ just for the game to open. Then another 60s+ to get to the character screen. Is this normal?
Nope. Takes about 5 seconds to open for me and then 10 seconds for login
Ok thanks, something weird going on so. It seems fine once it actually gets going.
Yay find out nightfall has match making, get to boss just to get weaseled out yet again. Says I have no internet connection. Check ps4 and it's over 100mbs...
keep up the good work!
keep up the good work!
Hunter is my main, but I always feel like we get the least ammount of love :(
I have been enjoying the new void subclass, it's great so solo play. Crouch and get headshots = invisible forever :D
Yeah, I am having fun with my Hunter, the hand guns and the Lightning Jedi super are pretty rad.
Some of the praise for JR has to be reserved until you've gotten the catalyst. With catalyst it (I believe) has the best overall stat package for a 150rpm scout. It also has Zen Moment which increases stability and the way Zen Moment works is it gives you a percentage increase of the base stability stat. Well the catalyst gives you a bunch of stability which means Zen Moment gets even stronger as a perk.
Most 150's have a pronounced "bounce" after each shot. JR with the catalyst pretty much eliminates that after the first hit with it's high stability and Zen Moment making it a very consistent and easy to use weapon. To me it's only real weakness is the fixed sight but that's something that most scout rifles have. The other perk on it, Fate of All Fools, might as well be absent for all I care. It's a negligible perk in the scheme of things, especially from a PVP perspective.
TLDR - Jade Rabbit with catalyst is extremely stable and consistent over long distances requiring very little bounce correction.
Hunter doesn't get the glowing praise that a the other classes do because we don't have the PvE utility they do, especially in raids. You typically only hear about us after we've thoroughly roughed someone up in PvP.
i get long loads espically initial and sometimes when going down to planets. My PC Is using 16GB ram 2060 + AMD 1600x.
I'm just saying that "sandbox" difficulty is artificial. I still would like to see an emphasis on mechanics, rather than enemies obliterating you in one shot. To this day, Spire of Stars was the most grueling day one/ week one raid experience. The enemies were just stupidly powerful. That's pretty much the reason why the first week completion count was so low.
Last Wish and especially Riven is the direction Bungie should follow. There was a power discrepancy, but it wasn't too punishing. And GoS definitely isn't bad. It's a good raid. Definitely better than Scourge and Crown.
I think this game just hates me. I haven't had an exotic drop in a week, my friend has gotten two today alone and a bunch of catalysts. Meanwhile I'm just sitting here like "Oh look another blue piece of shit".
Taking a break just makes me not want to play PvP at all. I'm on console and the changes to hand cannons kind of forced a switch to Redrix despite not enjoying pulse rifles of any archetype.
The artificial difficulty is annoying, but honestly I think GoS was fine with it. I made it to the final boss, it's just by that point I was getting tired (it was about 2am by then) and at that point any fuckups and random deaths by cyclops just wears on you thin. If I had started to making any sort of progress I would have kept going but I wasn't so it just felt like I was running into a brick wall over and over.
Contest is really the only way to make "world first" more skill than level. It sucks, but it is what it is. We won't be getting a Last Wish for a long time, if ever.
After clearing it normally, if I had known what worked, I think I could have cleared on Contest. Maybe next time I'll try to stick it out more.
feels like they turned it up for me, before this drop I haven't had an exotic drop for months. Got 3 world drops so far. All ones I had but still something. Still missing a few world drop weapons and the 2 armors from last dlc.
I LOVE Jade Rabbit, but its more of nostalgia from D1 lol. There are much much better Scouts in the game right now, and its kind of a shame imo.
Still working towards getting the stupid Catalyst to drop for it though.
I'm primarily going to stick to PC. Is the clan mostly for PS4 users?
Forsaken is the best Destiny content they ever made
It is actually kinda sad that anyone can just go to the Dreaming City whenever, because the unveiling mission for it is just so good
The good news with Forsaken is that you can actually get a raid chest (free loot) without having to do the raid.
So you can still get some armor/weapons/mods every week on all your characters (3 chests).
Any tips for the best way to Sweet Business in Crucible? Feels like I gotta be careful with the windup.
Yeah, we are mostly (99%) PS4.
Reach out to FacesAndAces and EmptySpace and see if they have any PC roster spots open still.
The season pass triumphs are giving me anxiety. I haven't missed earning any of the ones under the Event tab since launch. Some of these new vex offensive ones seem like a griiiind for 60 days remaining. Just hit battle pass 20 too :-/
Try to get the Gambit bow from the last season. It's really good and fun to use.
Yes if you like Triumphs there is some definite FOMO going on here. However I don't think they're [too] bad. I've spent a couple days on Vex Offensive and pretty much did all of them.
You only need 500 kills each for the guns triumph, and you can just keep killing Vex during the last bit, you can't "fail" it. There's 5 other randoms in the encounter who will do damage while you focus on the Vex anyway. You will probably need to group up to find people willing to do the "flawless team" - "10 minute" - "one phase" triumphs though.
Planetary bounties give so much xp. Like, each set of 3 is 1/4th of a rank, so you can realistically earn at least 1 rank a day minimum. Pair that with bounties from one primary activity (hunts, offensive, strikes, gambit, etc) and its super easy to get 3-4 ranks each play session.
I'm with you tho, getting the item collection triumph is my big worry. Emblems, ghost, ship, new pinnacle-ish weapons and so on.
Is it the bound manacle one? I think its in the room where you fight nightmare omnigul, unless I'm mistaken
I went there yesterday for first time, and was really amazed how good it looked. But i could only meet that fat guy sitting in his chair.
Ahh, that's really cool!
Nightmare Hunts will remain after the season is over, right?
It's only the Vex stuff that will be going away?

Yea, but I need to get the Essence to drop first, which I guess is random :(
Yeah that makes sense - i like the radar as I'm not very good, so I die to sneaky flankers less often. I do like flanking, so I wish it was easier for me to flank...but it's the price I pay for staying a bit safer.
The radar does allow a bit for vertical "flanking" where you can pop out of upstairs windows/doors, but that's about it. I suspect they'll do no radar mode again at some point, just for variety for people if nothing else.
Yes only the Vex Offensive activity should go away, replaced with the new activity for next season (however that works).
It can be a random drop but it's also tied to whatever the nightmare hunt is in rotation this week as well. Like Essence of rage is tied to the Nightmare Rage hunt and can drop from there.
Ok, thanks. Wish I knew about this stuff last week lol. Oh well.
Does the Season Pass armor level up past 950?
I got my hunter to full 950 gear and cashed in all the gear drops from the season pass, assuming they don't go past 950. Gonna use tokens to bring the other two up close to 950, just wondering about the season pass drops for them.

Jaded - do you have Mida multi tool for PvP? I broke mine back out of the vault and I can actually get kills with it....before I always get the enemy to 5% health and they kill me first. It feels pretty generous with auto aim on consoles and can beat almost anyone at range (only beaten by good players with snipers).
You'll have a bad time against shotgun rushing titans but that happens with any primary that's not a shotgun....
Random question on armour - I have an OG warlock helmet that has special ammo finder on it. Should I keep that tthen as new armour doesn't have the ammo finde perks any more?
