Can someone give me a link explaining how crucible balances equipment and levels? I understand that they're normalized, but I don't know much else. Considering making a pvp armor set.

It basically removes the "Attack" spec, and only utilizes the "Impact" spec for damage calculation.
Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust
For PVP armor it is all about perks/abilities. Defense/etc don't really matter, but a helmet that gives you buffs like holding more grenades or gives you abilities is going to benefit you.
The set up: I get on with two hours before Xur leaves. I have 12 coins. Roc strikes and a prayer are my only hope.
Hour one: failed attempt at public event. Hit a crit chest but none of the blues yield anything but motes and sadness. Finish daily heroic on 30, all blues turn into disappointment and motes.
Hour two: @iShotwell gets on and helps me Roc strike. We kill some aliens, and in the middle we do a public event which lets me kill Urzok! We do the final quest mission, he gets Patience and Time, and I get my coin. Yes!! Plus 5 motes...
I walk away with Don't Touch Me's and No Back Up Plans', plus turned in the Quest to Xur, all 5 minutes before he left.

I'm having more and more troubles getting into raids nowadays, so yeah I'd really like that were was a matchmaking of some sort where you might get lucky to get a decent group and its pretty ridicolous that there isnt at least an option for it.
Also, if you need a 6th for a raid and I'm online doing something else than Destiny, I'll most likely want to join anyway.
That was a brutal Vog run! dodgeblan, wassermelone, and Brandobaris took ages to get through the hard mode. We finally finished with the help of Schlagholzer. I finally got my Fatebringer!
The VoG last night was way more buggy than it normally is. It usually only takes an hour, two tops, but the detains on both the Templar and Atheon kept screwing up constantly. I also noticed that our damage was not always causing enemies to die, several Supplicants would go to zero health then pop back to full health again.
We had issues with our run too, with the minotaur and/or goblins that spawn not taking damage from the relic holder at all. But it was worth the effort cause I finally got a primary weapon that uses elemental effects. TWO OF THEM! Vex Mythoclast is great and I have yet to use the Atheons Epilogue but I know I'll like it.

Trophies are the dumbest thing ever.
A friend wanted to beat VoG normal last night to get the trophy for it so I said I would help out.
One guy killed himself on purpose the second we got in there because he thought it would be funny.
Then the guy who wanted the trophy died because his girlfriend distracted him before we could even set up the spire
Settled down after that... Even made it through the gorgons with no sweat...
But SOMEONE died at the disappearing platform part but not even on the disappearing platforms. He died on the little ledge section that has a slight decline.
Trophies are fucking stupid
That SOMEONE was me btw

So tonight's loot black hammer x2 fatebring X2 vex mythoclast. And best of all shoulder charged @Hiryu02 of the cliff. @Haximus got his mythoclast too but no fate bringer he's a sad panda.
All I wanted was a Fatebringer. I would have gladly taken it over the Mythoclast.
On another note, I did get the Fatebringer on the last VoG we did on a different night.

Did they ever make Bad Juju not suck? I've had the bounty forever, but since I have Red Death and Bad Juju sucked I just never did it. Is it worth doing now? It doesn't have to be better than Red Death, just viable. That's enough for me to do the quest just to have it .
On the pulse rifle topic after being given two Coiled HSS (vanguard pulse rifles) last week I finally started to give one a go and....it is amazingly not shit. 10 burst mag, crits hit hard, bursts can be fired fairly quickly for killing things without crit spots. Leveling the last version of The Conduit was painful, this is fairly pleasant.
I'm not sure they're actually good good but they're definitely useable which is a huge step up for pulse rifles. Trying to find their niche, precision is definitely important with them, they might be like a step between auto rifles / hand cannons.
Given the quality of the current Vanguard hand cannon...

The Red Death has always been good. Not Seros good, or raid gear good, but it"s always been a decent primary. Been my primary forever.
e: Pulse Rifles have always, and will always, be my main weapon, because they feel so much like the BR in Halo, which was far and away my favorite weapon. So I've used them even though they are slightly under powered, but Red Death has always been decent...I've always kept up.
Red Death was stupid good before the nerf. If they hadn't nerfed it at the same time as Suros, we'd probably have seen a month of Red Death only crucibles until it got nerfed too.

I thought the lowered impact + increased RoF made it almost the exact same as before?
I personally think the biggest thing bungee could do to make people use pulpulse rifles and give them a try, would to be to change up the fucking bounty during iron banner! I didn't buy a suros you assholes, quit giving me 50 AR headshot bounty every fucking day! Let me use my red death and make those suros users cry!
