    I never did get the butt towel.

    I might put some more farming in to try to get it but I am working some portion of the weekend so probably not.

    I did get my light back up to 306 with a chest drop and a new heavy which isn't good but will hold the spot until I can get a better one infused up.

    Mostly just huntin' monsters.

    I guess I'll do my 10 for the day.

    Who knows what exciting matches await me... I thought, as the game found a match...

    It can't be worse than last night, I mused... first match was a loss, but I got an exotic chest engram. So... I guess there's that at least. :|

    fun final match for me

    other team decides to all sit back on C and just snipe

    except none of them were good at it

    won 20,000-10,000

    poor guys

    Yeah my 312 chest was not as a good a roll as my 296 but I want the light more and there's hope I can get the other one infused up to 312 or get the Armamentarium up but that will not only take chest mats but a set of replacement arms so that'll be a while.

    Mostly just huntin' monsters.

    Finally got my fancy Chainmail knitted Hunter Cloak last night. Guys...guys. It's everything I dreamed it would be.

    Now I just have to keep farming in hopes of actually receiving the Hebredian Thoughtcrime and if I'm super lucky a 320 shell.

    There's two players in the match though with distinct scores... and the kill feed shows that too? Seems more like a coincidence than hax.x

    Its not a hack at all, that part was a joke, its just an unreasonably well timed Blink into the place where the Warlock died a splitsecond prior.

    IB was not as nice to me this time around. Last time I got the spacebus, five different ghost shells (one level 320 with great stats!) two chest pieces, boots, a hand cannon and a sidearm, a machine gun and an amazing rocket launcher

    this time I got two ghost shells, one helmet with bad rolls, one mark, and a semi decent hakkon. I blew all my marks getting the vendor shottie and helmet for the stats and perks.

    Last IB I got... Jack shit and I had 2 guys to rank 5. (Rank 5 package was a 313 Haakon's Hatchet crap rolls on one and the other got the low impact Sniper at 316, which is useless for PvP.) I'm still waiting for this "vastly increased drop rate" to show.

    I don't know if I even want to bother with IB

    I'm not really going to get anything out of it except the AR I could buy, but I probably would never use it

    If PA peeps are playing on XB1 I may hop in for the funsies

    Gah.

    Trying to complete Shaxxxxxx's monster bounty.

    Can I find a Clash match? Can I what.

    The clash one was easy for me. I've done like, 4 shots at the rift one and it's been universally terrible.

    I have had one, which we won handily, I need another to finish the points. I am just always the only one looking for clash.

    Oh well.

    Rift is certainly a hit and miss game type, I did well in one game we had and was a total dog in the one before

    Hey, did you guys know there are weapon specific weekly Crucible bounties over at the Crucible Quartermaster? No idea if the count towards Shaxx's special weekly or not. I suspect not, given the wording on the special one.

    Played another day post rank 5 without a cloak drop. Ugh. Going to be working the rest of the weekend and Monday, which means it's unlikely that I'm going to get one. So dumb.

    Or you could be like me and get absolutely nothing apart from the ghost.
    My drops have been fucking disgusting this Iron Banner (so bad I don't even want to make up a fun name for the event anymore, I'm a broken man!).
    The best thing I got was an IB hat (the game after I'd already broken down and bought one for marks, and it was only 4 points higher than the bought one so it was like lulz) and a shotgun with rolls so bad I should probably just dismantle it and salt the earth of my special weapon inventory so it's evil can't take root.

    On a more positive note I'd like to thank the guys who were part of the big IB session last night. I'm afraid I'm not really sure of anyone's forum names but it was an absolute pleasure to get to group with you guys even if I was absolutely garbage all night and a little bit salty because of it.

    @Forever Zefiro
    I'd be happy to run IB most of the night since I still have to grind up at least one of my hunter or 'lock. If you're online when I get to my xbone I'll hit you up if you like.

    Did you check the postmaster? The Rank 5 package always drops a 310 ghost and another item that Saladin is not selling at 310+. There is a bug that after you open your package you have to go to orbit and then go back to the tower to get it to show up sometimes depending on what it is. For instance my shitty roll rocket launcher went to my inventory but the arms I got on my two other characters went to the postmaster.

    @Zombie Gandhi @Hawkarino @Groc & friend

    Groc's buddy did insane, helped carry us a game or two. Had a couple sweaty matches against a good other team, wherein every match we would be bad the first half and give them a few thousand point lead. One game we choked and lost by about 300 after a mass death when the game was finishing up. Next match we won by 200 in the end (after a similar head-start for them).
    We even had one good loot game where both our top two got Hatchet's that were 280-90+ with OK-ish perks.

    Okay so my rank 5 package wasn't a total waste, logged back in and got a 314 chest piece from it, which is an upgrade on my current chest pieces in every way except the rolls. I'm more of an Int/Disc guy than Int/Str but whatever.

    I also played like garbage last night in full six man PA group. I was super salty about it, especially since all but one match, I felt like I was playing pretty well, and I was shocked by the final score every time. Finally had a decent game by the end.

    Our team played really well, and I felt like was not feeding the enemy kills. But still, I like to think of myself as at least a mediocre pvper ppb my bad days.

    Has not been a high performing IB for me.

    Apparently I got a phantom yesterday. Ended up with 10 kills for the whole match and I was so salty about my perception of a shitty performance that I did not record the clip. I didn't even know what phantom meant until Mugen explained it to me.

    I think it had something to do with two headshot snipes, a wombo combo to get the heavy, a tlw one on one kill and a triple down shadow shot/ruin wake follow up as I took B by myself.

    I was so shocked at the final score I didn't record the match.
