i haven't done any pinnacles this week either yet so this is, as the kids call it, Optimal
I had 950 in everything but one slot and for some reason the season pass heavy was 950 instead of the 949 it was yesterday. maybe they messed up and SP drops round up on your average with the decimal??? who knows. it's a god given gift and that's what matters
I'm not sure I'll be able to complete the Randy's Throwing Knife quest at the rate my Medals bar is going up.
I'm sitting around 16% on the kills portion but I'm only rocking Jade Rabbit about half the time. I just can't do Scouts on some maps, I have to change it up for my sanity.

I good naturedly hate you.
It took me 6 powerfuls and 2 Primes yesterday to get my last remaining sub 950 to 950.

I'm only at 10%. I tried Jade Rabbit but it just handles too slow for me so I switched to Mida. I think it's going up slower in Iron Banner because some of the multikill medals (like cold fusion) don't seem to pop up there.
They can't. Randos can't communicate in this game so past a certain point, they have to remove matchmaking to increase complexity.
Considering the dumb shit I've seen people do in Gambit, I can not imagine wanting to RAID with those same random groups, no.
I mean, he's basically just asking for a party finder application in the game. Something that WoW and FFXIV have. Which people generally use in game to find parties for more complicated stuff or learning parties. 100io or app or whatever is great, but they're not the same and only aim at a different niche of players.

Iron Banner has its own array of themed medals to earn. Something like 55 of them, introduced in Year 2 I think.

yeah that bit is definitely a slog. i have noticed a spike in the gains for that requirement with IB, though hasn't been a constant for every match. i'm up to 11% now and a decent portion of that has been over the last 24 hours. we'll see where it is at the end of the week i guess. though the weapon requirements for the IB quest pretty much halted my scout rifle kills.
I was just glad to finish my thorn stuff, because man my void hand cannon was not good, and I dislike playing void lock versus Palpatine tickle fingers.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
One thing i'm starting to really dislike is how the game pits me against my own team.
Like, the daily to get 50 precision kills in a strike without dying.
I am now actively fighting my team for kills, and can't afford to take risks to aid them.
Or how pvp rewards you for individual acchievements much more than team ones, like kills and motes in gambit.
Yes, winning is great, but unless i gather those motes, i am not going anywhere in lot of quests, so now everyone is competing with their own team, instead of the opposing one.

You can just load up a nightfall solo and kill stuff in the areas preceeding a strike (even in lost sectors) for strike bounties. The Nokris one this week starts you out in the Mars public area.
So I reinstalled and haven't played since launch. I liked the game well enough but once I beat it I lost interest. So I'm going to see how well I enjoy it this time before deciding on the DLC. But I was wondering about the different classes. I originally played warlock and it was fun, but this time I'm playing as a Titan. I'm still a bit torn on what class to play though. Like does it make a difference by the end of the game? The powers are neat but it seems like they're used infrequently enough that 95% or more of my effectiveness comes from my guns and not my class/power. Does that change much as you go along? Also it seems like all the powers are unlocked right from the get-go and I don't need to complete quests anymore so that's interesting.
When in need of scout rifle kills, switch to skyburners and spam from the hip. That's how I did this bullshit last season and scout rifles sucked more then.
DIM says I'm 46% there overall. I leaned on MIDA pretty hard in survival last weekend. I guess I'll take another stab at it this weekend if I can knock out the Ironic Beano with the Titan and Hunter beforehand.
i haven't been struggling as much as i expected with the scout kills, though i do think they changed it at some point. i was sure it originally said it needed to be kills from a distance, now its just final blows. currently at 27%(121 out of 450 according to DIM). desperately need to start getting wins in comp though. one win so far just is not going to cut it.
Trying to do all-arc GoS. Breezed through until the final encounter and then got stuck there for an hour. Maddeningly, the problem doesn’t seem to be damage or survival, but
getting the second damage phase tether to happen. :rotate:
Are any of the Y1 Trials/Raid guns useful in Crucible?
Yes; most of those guns were special in the Y1-period because they had more perks than non-Pinnacle weapons. As such, guns like Midnight Coup still compare favorably.

That encounter seems extremely buggy. We had the same issue last night -- executing mechanics perfectly and still having trouble getting it to go.

Oh, and we had one wipe because a minotaur dropped its motes off the stage and we didn’t have enough to fill one of the banks.
Motes are just not something I wanted to deal with in raids.
Yeah I'm not a fan of the Tether mechanic because so many destiny players are spatially challenged. Can't tell you how many times a random player got to close to the tether and ruined a good damage phase in our LFGs.

And I cannot overstate how happy I am that Tether kills on hit again

Just to demonstrate how I am permanently Marked for Vengeance.
I will spawn in and become Marked without firing a single bullet.
All because I disparaged @rndmhero's love of putting Minor Spec on every shotgun.
I have tethered the wall next to me more times than I care to remember.

Because that's gonna suck when they do.
why do you not have fighting lion equipped

Nope, I did it about an hour or two ago and used my Recluse.
