    I'm getting on in just a minute (once again barring any type of zoo errors) and would love to give it a shot

    Starting a nightfall attempt with @Squall99x if anyone wants to join us.

    Would anyone perhaps be able to assist me with the final quest for Thorn. Exotic bounties are nice and all, but being stuck with more than one at a time makes it take forever to finish the dailies!

    If I can just get 5 strikes tonight, then I'll be in full purple/exotic gear with a legendary primary. So close!

    Do you get more ascended shards from dismantling gear that is leveled up? without spending any shards on the gear

    Did the Loot Cave 2.0 for a bit, actually got a rare AR (how quaint, you're saying; shaddup lol) and a rare sniper. Finished rank 1 of the Queen so I at least have the first shader and the emblem. Gotta work on that some more so I can at least buy the AR for rank 2. 3k points is a lot though...

    So every purple Engram I've had turns into a blue item

    ...and then today two blue Engrams turned into purple items (a Fusion Rifle and Sniper Rifle)

    Oh and then I got a second Exotic Bounty choice (I chose the one for Pocket Infinity) while still trying to finish up the one for Invective

    So today was pretty productive.

    If anyone on the xbone wants to do the nightfall in about an hour I'll be available. I could almost solo it, but the end boss just clips my wings everytime.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    Keep wanting to jump into these Weekly/Nightfall groups, but I'm watching this insane extra-inning wildcard game between the Royals and Athletics, so I'm not on quite yet. I imagine I'll hop on in a bit and PvP, if there's room. Have to do the daily, too.

    If you dont manage to get to the weekly/nightfall before tomorrow night I'd like to give it another go. Poor timing / bad luck with adds smoked us at the boss each time.

    Just realized something... if one were to spend shards on the Queen's armor and DE them later, they're not getting those shards back right?

    Was going to upgrade the chest further... but yeah.

    Just went to do the daily and saw that I had one friend currently running it... So I scanned my friends list and saw that @Khildith‌ was mid-mission, with his fireteam set to Public. Cool, I thought. We can do it together. I click "Join Fireteam" and immediately hear the ba-boosh that accompanies receipt of an item. Mission loads... right into the post-mission debriefing screen. Two ascendant shards. Didn't even set foot on the planet.

    Thanks, @Khildith!

    Edit: aaand I just did almost exactly the same thing with @Dusda. Killed one enemy and hit the boss once after zoning in. Cool.

    Tonight's raid went well. Got a lot of loot. Legendary void sniper rifle that does bonus damage to Oracles, warlock armband (again), warlock raid chest, legendary void autorifle, and Patience and Time. I wish exotics leveled faster, I really want them all leveled so I can use them to their full potential whenever I want.

    Also, this week's nightfall is easier than the heroic.

    Yeah, I pulled a Plan C fusion rifle out of a chest in the raid. :D Pulled the exact same gun finishing the Nightfall. :|

    See, I understand why they don't want green to exotic trades, but stuff like this makes me wish that you could trade an item for another item of equal worth.

    So how do primary weapons with elemental damage modifiers affect damage in PvP?

    Was playing earlier doing the heroic and had a purple engram drop. Decoded it and it turned into

    Not sure if it's any good for the hunter class. Makes trip mines last longer, specials reload faster, and grenade kills give more super energy. Seems kind of lackluster for an exotic unless trip mines are really good.

    Im sure this question has been asked a hundred times; but for the exotic bounties with the requirement to get a k/d spread of 25 - i think i remember hearing that assists count? Can anyone clarify?

    Maybe. It definitely allows more than one map, so I got it partway through the second map.

    I'm abandoning the Queen. It's mathematically impossible for me to get rank 2, so why bother? I'll work on getting rank 2 for Vanguard instead. Oh well, got the shader and emblem at least.

    Are you figuring the bonus rep from using the shader and emblem in you calculation?

    I thought the same thing, but I didn't know that there was bonus rep to be had until today. I still don't know if it applies to more than the bounties, though.

    Trip Mines are great! Blast radius damage dropoff is kinda steep though.

    Fun times in PVP too. But, they are also useless against most Titans.

    Pretty sure it counts assists, so play a large team game like control and hang near the back of groups so you can rack up assists then run away when things go sour. Pikes and heavy weapons help out, too.

    Hmm. Yeah, I still think it won't work out. I need 2,951 (yeah, what?) points. With a 50% bonus at 6 bounties per day I could get at best 900 if they are all worth 100 (which they won't be). I know I don't have the time to do all 6 for the next four days. I mean, I could try for it, I guess.

    I'm not equipped for the missions, so those are out.

    Maybe I will? What's the bonus for the shader and emblem?

    Does the raid finder have some functionality to find Nightfall partners?

    I keep getting asked to do it, and I feel bad turning everyone down. It just turns out that, while there are many things in this game that I will do over and over again for no personal reward to help others out, the Nightfall just isn't one of them.
