Destiny 2: Warmind |OT| Mars Attacks!

Playing without an item manager is like playing soccer with one leg. I'm rather curious how Bungie is comfortable outsourcing such an important task to other developers. Perhaps collections is a step forward in eliminating our need for item managers.
It is literally - LITERALLY - rage inducing when people say "hold on I have to go to the tower to swap my gear on my titan" in the middle or before a raid
Like what the FUCK
I love that you can finally get stuff out of the postmaster with DIM now, too. Saves a lot of tower trips just to make space.
DIM is a life changer
When it was broken I didn't even want to play destiny.
I have officially realized I can't stand it, I absolutely detest crucible and outside of milestones for when LL increases and IB, I am done with it. It's the most garbage PvP in gaming history easily. I went and played some Battlefield last night and V can't come quick enough, a fucking real PvP that is actually fun.
I use Ishtar Commander App on my iOS/Android.

Huckleberry Catalyst dropped on my third ever Heroic Adventure (really fking awful, it's hard but not in a fun way), am I going to be cursed by RNG going forward ? Or do Huckleberry Catalyst have high drop chance ?
You just need to own it. No need to equip or have it on you. Complete RNG.
It's not good, but I have more fun with it than Overwatch. Less of a defense towards Destiny 2 PvP and more just how bad I think Overwatch is.
I've generally found the PvP to be in a slightly better place than it was late in D2 vanilla. The only thing that genuinely annoys me is the prevalence of Sword/Tractor rushing and the cycling people do specifically to chain Power Ammo grabs that facilitates that play.
Edit: I did make the switch from console over to PC though, so that could be influencing my impressions as well.

2 more weeks of 4s Quickplay.
Me:
The Dude:
I'm going to miss Quickplay 4s. Being able to really understand the enemy and make plays based on their behavior was so good. Made me a better player. Even if I'm going to get stomped by 4 stacks all the time in Comp, I won't be in Quickplay much. 6s is just too chaotic, too messy. You're always reacting. If you think 6 Grav Lances is bad now, just wait. :-P
Ironically, I fell in love with Comp before the ranking system. It's changed the vibe from being a more deliberate mode to being a super-sweaty playlist where ever loss stings and quantitatively penalizes you. Comp was all I played in Season 2 and I barely play it in Season 3 unless I'm going to be working on the Claymore grind.
Also, you really don't have to use GL/VW. They are very strong, but so are lots of other guns. GL & VW are both terrible in short & close quarters. If you're having a bad time, try something else than challenging GL/VW with your own GL/VW and trading over and over.
Yeah, I never see those on console. FoV changes make Sword on PC really nice compared to the constricting console FoV. There's honestly way too much power ammo right now, both spawn rate and pick ups. But just gotta brace myself for Fall when we'll be back to 6 snipers peaking a lane every match. :-P
I've found a lot of success with Nameless. Unfortunately I end up have to go back to GL often when going against aggressive pushing teams because I need that Better Devils counterplay. It would be nice to find a good Energy HC so I could play around with Loadouts more. Nothing gets quite to Better Devils level though yet. Jack Queen King is kind of close but not quite. Sunshot is similar but not enough. Ah well.
lolwut.
it's one of the 2 best energy SMGs in the game along with Hero's Burden for PvP. Its shield breaking special effect affects teammate bullets as well, so everyone on your team does extra kinetic weapon damage after you break shields with it.
For PvE, SMGs are forever meh anyway.
Since you're on PC, you should give the IKELOS a try. It's crispy af
I gave it a shot early on when I first picked it up and it felt funky in the Crucible, though it absolutely punches in PvE.
I'll give it another shot though. Sometimes it's just about getting a good feel for it. Reload time is a PITA. Will need to fix that.
Haven't touched comp in a few weeks actually , and I hate qp just as much. I just cringe now when I play it... There's something about it I can't fucking stand anymore since their "fix". But I still will do the shit tied to crucible
I don't fuck with any handcannon that obstructs my field of vision of the target. It has the same problem that Nature of The Beast has. Funky vertical recoil pattern. Give me something that kicks up and to the right and lets me see my target between shots every day of the week. Or something that has no kick at all like Crimson.Since you're on PC, you should give the IKELOS a try. It's crispy af
D2 Lunch Break HYPE!
As far as reload goes, I agree. That's why I've fallen in love with Service Revolver from Zavala. It's got Outlaw. :) Have you tried the Blue Allegro-34 hand cannon?
Yeah, that's a real issue. But the recoil is perfectly vertical, so you can get a 6th sense about it with time.
Loot a lost sector on Io with 3x renown. (DIM has been updated to show all the Challenges in the Progress tab. That's how I found out.)
No doubt. I just...it's weird when all you can really see is the butt of the gun most of the time. Only IKELOS weapon I don't use. :(
The past few nights reminded me how much fun newbie raids can be. Listening to guys truly happy to finish the raids is good stuff.
So much time spend just rushing thtough everything most of the time.
Congrats guys on your EoW and Levi clears!

That doesn't help either, but running face first into enemy fire every 5 seconds and awkward spawns in maps that are too small really solidify it.
I think IB was hell because of the high uptime of power ammo. And people not knowing how to play Bannerfall.
The spawns are a huge problem they need to address. It's dumb af when I kept spawning next to half the enemy team and get team shot to death. Legion of Gulch is a good example. I kept dying and spawning away from my team while they were capturing and the enemy team was killing me constantly. Literally died for most of the match because of that.
I remember when my EXO Warlock was a straight up Mack in his purple Voidfang Vestments. That was Destiny 1. I have yet to find a single outfit that really sets my character apart from the rest in Destiny 2.

Fenchurch gonna cancel her Amazon Prime account.
Too many returns.
I finally got Worldline Zero's catalyst completion. Also Zavala's authority. Feels good.
Now, what will Bungie Day bring for us this year?
