Ugh, reminds me why I eventually quit Overwatch. The player base was toxic. Outside of the occasional crucible match I think I'm going to be happy sticking with PvE raids and the like.

I haven't been BMd once in Crucible yet and it makes me sad. All I've seen is a bunch of gentle creatures grazing in the fields, I even got a GG message in my last game I just have no idea what's going on.

I am so mad, we did encounter 2 of the raid last night and SOMEONE ELSE got the sword
I am the only one on my raid team who is a sword booster and that sword is THE BEST in the game for PvE shenanigans
But yes, if you get the sword from the raid or your raid engram. Do not shard it
Keep it. Hold it. Love it. Sleep with it. Eat with it.

If it's anything like the beta the Nergal is pretty filthy. Does anytime has a good short range kinetic rec? There are a few good energy guns but I can't find a pairing that I like, better devils isn't cutting it.
Also Gandhi if you do jump back on tonight I'm down, I don't mind the grind.
holy shit, I just found out some essential dog tech
The time you have to gather pollen stacks in the pleasure garden isn't based on what "round" you're on, it's based on how many dogs are alive. If you near-kill all or most of them, then you can just easily kill them all in the 2nd phase since you have way more time for stacks. Also, I found a map:
So I just realized that several of the Titan armors have been reminding me of: Universal Century Zeon-faction mobile suits (Zaku, Gelgoog, etc.) Especially the Kerak Type 2 armor.

You get completion % on Call to Arms from doing well in the Crucible, with a baseline of like 7% for a win or something if you literally contribute nothing to the match.
It takes a little while, but it's really not that bad for something you have an entire week to complete.
you get access to sparrows when you finish the story
which for some reason no one bothers telling you or how to get one
go buy one from amanda
or sometimes you'll end up getting one from a bright engram
Yeah, I got two from a bright engram before I earned one from finishing campaign. But obviously that won't happen unless you hit 20 and at least one more level before finishing the story. Or spend real money.

Hoping by this coming weekend to be able to give the raid a shot or at least the nf. Are there any fellow xbox dads/moms out there that would have to do something like that over the weekend after 10 pm or so? Because that's what I'm looking at. I play while my kids are up and doing their own thing too, but something like a raid where communication is necessary would probably be best saved for a time when I can give it my 100%.

I got one with my raid group, can confirm. It has both the increased damage/swing and ammo regen/3 hits perks.
Plus, it looks fly.

I hate the strike playlist. Picking a random strike is annoying when it's the same one every time.
That's not hyperbole, either. I ended up in Exodus Crash six times this week before it finally gave me another one. Maybe I'll get to see all six strikes before Destiny 3 comes out.
I got invited to a clan called negus, saw a clan called Gaybois and just finished a match with two people from the Guardians of Dudebutt. I take it there are no language restrictions or check, heh?
I am about ready to call shenanigans on the whole blues will drop 5 levels behind bit. I am at 276, and all blues are 268. I can go down to 273, and all blues are 268.
Nightfall, raid, weeklies, and the exotic quests are the only things that result in more than 268.

I can't believe how quickly I hit 20. Like I know 20 doesn't matter at all but I remember it being much slower in D1. I did it in like 4-5 hours of play.

Just to clarify this bit. According to Bungie your engram power level value is set by the highest possible light that the character you have received it on can access if it had all of the best items that it *could* possibly equip on across all your characters and your vault. Meaning it should auto check for all your high power weapons across your other characters and vault and is also smart enough to know you can't have multiple exotics on. Then what you have mediating that number is the fact that your newer class with have lower light level armor on, bringing your average down.
The good news is because of how high blues can drop by doing public events once you hit 20 you can get up into the 270s and 280's super quick. Think my hunter was in the mid 280's after about 2-3 hours at level 20.
Are we sure about the bolded bit? I can't be 100% positive, but when I had my 290 MIDA in the vault I was getting 268 engrams. I pulled it out of the vault and i was getting 271s... Nothing else i was wearing changed, didn't get anything that would have upped my average either. It's not out of the realm of possibility I'm wrong, just don't think i am. I will have to test after work today.
It is 100% designed to work that way, if it is not then it is a bug.

Because the algorithm knows you can't equip multiple Exotic Weapons/Armor, I think it can get easily confused about using Exotics in the vault as part of a calculation if you are wearing an Exotic that would pre-empt equipping the vaulted Exotic.
you get access to sparrows when you finish the story
which for some reason no one bothers telling you or how to get one
The real pro tip here is that once you have one, you can just transfer it to your alt and have access to a sparrow as soon as you hit the first leveling zone.

Unfortunately not infinite, but you get an extra 1/3 pulls!
False.
The count is maintained (i.e. every hit above 3 grants 1 ammo), you can uppercut on 1 ammo, and each uppercut hits 3 times and ammo is applied after the ammo is consumed.
Unless the sword doesn't do an uppercut?
EDIT: Nope, it is an adaptive frame, it does an uppercut. You can definitely use it indefinitely on majors.
Trials engram unlocked with @Disrupter we didn't quite make the flawless unfortunately, but had a great run regardless, especially considering they had to carry me
Good news is ps4 clan can go talk to Hawthorne to get some trials gear.
Thanks @Sousuke for joining me tonight. it was a good time.
Bad new is flawless escaped us at 5 wins cause of the single most embarrassing play. One dude with a weird stun grenade launcher took all 4 of us out 1v4. Individually one at a time.
So expect to see that on reddit. We gunna be famous.
The pony rule continues. No pony is an easy win. Any ponys and we choke.

Stun Grenade Launcher is the Flash and Thunder class - they're good in PVP and PVE.

Also, as a team they only did ~530 more damage than you.
And you had more opponents defeated than all of them combined.
How was this a balanced team against a four stack, Bungo? /boggle
edit: also while maining an Armillary PSU (it's a blue SR.)

also:
I only hope that when they nerf the MIDA they don't break my primary weapon and archetype (mid-high/high ROF scouts)
and my call to arms on my titan is at 99%. couldn't just give me that last bit, could you, game?

@The Dude With Herpers
Blue mods turn into glimmer. Don't dismantle them.
Kinetic mods do exist, there are rare kinetic counterbalance mods, I think?
But you need to use the random mod creation thing once you are over 280 to make legendary kinetic mods.
Because the algorithm knows you can't equip multiple Exotic Weapons/Armor, I think it can get easily confused about using Exotics in the vault as part of a calculation if you are wearing an Exotic that would pre-empt equipping the vaulted Exotic.
Was online, not on forums. Am sad now. Go any better?
