    I actually pulled out Mida on recommendation to pair with Erentil, and it went pretty well. I think I still prefer Bygones, but Mida's high mobility + Traction's improved turn radius is really absurd together. Also since I run top tree Nightstalker, I get to keep my Enhanced radar up.

    Erentil-related question for you, Jay.

    Is a ranged weapon strongly needed to pair with it? I've got great rolls on both Austringer and Erentil but I don't know if I'm giving myself a GLARING weakness in not grabbing a pulse for my primary.

    Eh, lots of people in high Comp run TLW/Recluse or Mountaintop/Recluse. Just use what gets you the most kills. The thing that helped me the most was embracing the meta. Bygones, Erentil, Wardcliff (bleh).

    I will say, don't be afraid to change things up if your kit isn't working in a match/map. But also don't swap endlessly trying to find something that will work. Have like three solid loadouts you can rotate easily, one with shotgun is easy. Everyone should have a Dust Rock loadout by now.

    Cheesing the matchmaking for free wins is the most meta strat.

    One of the blue Solstice armor pieces for the Hunter needs Void weapon kills in the Crucible, so I pulled out an Erentil I just happened to have in my vault from seasons ago since I try to keep like 1 of everything

    It's not even super great, Snapshot Sights and Rampage, Stability MW I think, don't know about the scopes or batteries

    Shit's wild

    It's 300 headshots with DARCI. I can't remember if PvP counts for more but considering it's a heavy weapon you are better off just doing the PvE route. It's not actually that much compared to many other catalysts.

    Easiest way to do it is to repeatedly load into the Leviathan and headshot the guards there. You'll always load with some heavy ammo so you don't have to constantly scrounge for more.

    Easiest way is to just run around with DARCI equipped while doing your normal PvE stuff imo. It'll happen soon enough, it's less tedious and you can get multiple things done at once rather then spending 50% of your time starring at a loading screen.

    You can farm for it in the Menagerie. Excess rune + blue rune.

    Very good.

    I was secretly hoping you'd say it drops from Banshee-44, since I've got thousands of weapon parts sitting around. But the menagerie is much more straightforward.

    EDIT: Of course my post gets ninja'd. Thank you both for the info!

    Yeah, I've dropped a couple thousand parts for Banshee and have seen a single Erentil.
    RNG is so fun when you get the same three give over and over and over and OVER. Makes me wonder if there's an even chance for any drop or if it's scaled for some dumb reason.

    @Peen you don't need to be max level for the event, I got most of my warlock armor done while still leveling.

    My hunter's only level 37 so the first order of business is gritting my teeth through the campaign again. After that we'll see.

    You should definitely be able to pick up the Solstice armor then. Then you can at least get free roll on elemental orbs and a few things even while you're finishing up story stuff.

    Warlock suit is done. Looks real purty. Man those 10 gambit matches felt like a real fucking slog. Had to go to orbit after getting it for the boots to see that i'd reset my valor last week.

    Can someone fill me in on pricing for Shadowkeep and Forsaken?

    Forsaken Complete collection is $40, and that catches me up from Vanilla? Then what, $35 in October for Shadowkeep?

    Should I just wait for Shadowkeep/New Light in October? Will New Light include the old DLC?

    Some days Blue wonders why anyone ever bothered making numbers so small; other days she supposes even infinity needs to start somewhere.

    New Light comes with Mars and Mercury I believe.

    I think New Light is supposed to include everything pre-Forsaken as free.
    Then you pay for whichever DLC you want to play (Forsaken, Shadowkeep, etc).

    Well got the first blue suit. Evening Prime Time Crucible is just so much fun with six stacks galore. Oddly though I was pretty fine with that as I just wanted the matches to complete to tick that counter to 10...

    Of course the very first Gambit match where I'm not actively trying to get Not on My Watch for Lumina I immediately do it on the first invade. Least that is taken care of now.

    Maaaaaaaan.....I loaded up Destiny and there was a dark login screen and got all excited they finally stopped with the blinding white nonsense.

    But then I realized I loaded up Destiny...

    Ah well. Maybe with the next expansion.

    I love that there's a dark load screen that immediately returns to a blinding white one.

    Though I swear one of the community managers mentioned on Reddit that changing the white character select and such screen was now complicated then it seemed and so it was on the backest of back burners. I assume someone hard-coded something about it for some reason.

    Got my first reaper medal last night using the nova warp super. Could've had 7, but I choked at the end, and couldn't get a grenade kill for the 7th column. And then the guardians I was fighting went immune, which was unfortunate.

    Collect the triumph from in game. Then go to the store. If you're logged into the linked account, you should be given a code to use. There may be an interim step where they have to email you first.
