    TWAB should be going up sometime this morning. They're including the patch notes for the 29th with it, which was the cause for delay IIRC.

    I haven't played Spire of Stars even once because the experienced Raid Teams seemed too disgusted with it to want to do it so often that they'd toss an invite in the direction of a non-regular. I do have ambitions to clear it eventually, just need a willing group.

    I missed a bunch of stuff. Haven't run a single encounter (lair, prestige, etc) between Leviathan and Scourge of the Past, but I definitely want to!

    I can't guarantee anything, but if you give me a general time of when you’d want to run some lairs, I can try to set something up.

    Getting Redrix's and Luna's back to back has been sort of disappointing. Those two things have been hanging over me to accomplish since I switched to PC back in September. They're done now. Not Forgotten is actually unattainable without region switching or win trading (because I suck), so I don't know what to do now. I guess I could try for Mountaintop but the double kills and medals steps are just so tedious.

    Side note: my Competitive experience was really pretty good ever since the matchmaking change. A lot of my matches were a lot closer, and the occasional blowout was always us doing it.

    I didn't know that implemented competitive matchmaking changes yet

    Doesn’t sound like they’re going to implement any retroactive fixes for people who’ve already done a flawless SotP.

    -_-

    Boo to that powerful bounty change.

    All that means is that it will take even longer to be raid-ready next time around.

    I haven't been around for any other events/updates - what does raising the power cap do? Obviously it means if I have hit 650 by then I'm going to have to grind again to get to the new cap. But are they putting out content that requires that new cap, as well?

    There's no new Raid coming, but maybe the "new Gambit activity" will be power level enabled? And there's always Iron Banner.

    Hopefully they’ll follow up by making hoarding behavior unnecessary, by making it less of grind to be raid ready...

    That's one way of looking at it. I see it as a change made to level the playing field rather than favor mega-hardcore grinders.

    The hardcore grinders don’t really want it. The world first for Scourge, Gigz, was on his twitter some weeks ago urging for bounties to be capped, to a lot of agreement from like-minded people.

    Leaving the exploit in would probably do more to level the playing field.

    Without the exploit you basically have to play non stop for a week to have any chance of beating a raid on launch weekend

    EDIT: I wonder if they are also resetting the prime engram counter between seasons so you can’t get a pile of them in the first week

    Datto finally released his thoughts on Scourge a few days ago and said the same shit. None of them like it as far as I can figure out.

    Well, I officially haven't played in over two weeks. Been enjoying Odyssey and some other titles, and have had no real urge to get in there and play.

    I think BA killed it for me.

    Any PC peeps want to do a raid Monday during the day, by any chance? Or possibly sometime on Sunday?

    I'll check in Discord etc. later as well but I'm here at the moment.

    Same boat. Though I’d really like to see SotP past the opening encounter.

    So they made bounties capped and levelling is still random chance bullshit with it being possible to get upgrades in the same slot 8+ times in a row?

    Great.

    Lootbox levelling, truly the wonder of modern gaming.

    I don’t want to tempt you back to the dark side if you’re happy taking a break, and it’s also getting a nerf soon, but if you want I can set up a prestige EoW run with a reliable bunch of people.

    Gofannon forge unlocked. Ready to get me some more frames.

    Of course I am way behind on everything, but I took two weeks off this month and I’ve been doing it all solo.

    I might be insane for playing this game by myself.

    I appreciate it, maybe if you guys are still playing when the next DLC hits we can set it up

    That was my first thought as well.

    I assume (don't remember + haven't checked) Nighthawk just depletes your super energy completely so the number of bullets you have doesn't matter.

    This is an excellent PVE buff tho, might get me to not always run Lucky Raspberry.

    Depends what that last 1% is.

    The last 1% of my Dredgen title was an unbelievable slog.
