    Pretty damn satisfying getting the last win on The Cauldron and getting Total Annihilation to end with. (5 straight wins in the last match, no losses)

    http://xboxclips.com/ArteenEsben/a9066bf4-2726-42ad-9a1d-827b8bd87914 Arteen's video of the end of the last match.
    "The enemy is making a comeba--" FIST OF HAVOK

    Definitely a good match to go out on!

    I saved a 4-5 minutes clip leading up to that last fight there from my Point of View.

    Yes, thats me bodytanking a rocket point blank which kills the last guy alive on their team from the impact of his own rocket in the heavy round and me living on to tell the tale.

    My Thorn apparently shot assists shots all over the place in that clip, I could have sworn those 2 died from my gun "Arteen killsteals this guy x 2" at 1.40 - the fuck? (kidding)

    Is there a must have weapon from the crucible vendir, dead orbit or future war cult? I'm one match away from 150 marks.

    Found Verdict and her courtesy are just about all I want from shotguns

    I think the New Monarchy shotgun is well regarded.

    Matador-64 and Party Crasher +1 are also pretty nice, they drop after Crucible matches.

    Felwinter's Lie is the Iron Banner shotgun, it's probably the heaviest hitter.

    But Found Verdict and Her Courtesy are both pretty good.

    Also, if you don't have a good PvP rocket launcher, Dead Orbit's is just as good as a perfect Radegast's except a little smaller blast radius.

    I need to spend marks, but I don't really want anything. Different YouTube people swear the fwc hand cannon the fulcrum can be better than hawkmoon, if you roll it properly,and get luck in the chamber and final round, give ping it a 1 in 8 chance of a super bullet, but I have hawkmoon.

    Fusion guns sort of stink, or take way more skill than shotguns.

    I have a pile of sniper rifles, machine guns and rocket launchers.

    I'm pretty content with primaries, secondaries and heavies, I guess

    Fulcrum is a beast, especially when you roll luck, final, and smallbore together like I have...

    But for my money, I still prefer the New Monarchy Red Hand IX as it's just so damned smooth

    Both heavies from New Monarchy are pretty good if you have rep with them.

    I may buy the fulcrum. It looks sort of cyberpunk. And I do enjoy rolling weapon perks.

    The Taken King is launching with a single new Strike - Echo Chamber, which is also a Playstation Exclusive? (Cant see any other strikes listed anywhere right now at least)

    Seriously? So much for "Expansion" if thats all.

    "Adventure through new Strikes featuring powerful bosses, follow more questlines that lead to powerful, new gear and brave the next major Raid to test six-player Fireteams."

    Taken from the Taken King info page https://www.destinythegame.com/taken-king

    All mention of strikes are in the plural. I thought Echo Chamber was just the PS exclusive, where have you read it's the only strike?

    Destiny is just taking it 12 steps further with an entire year of waiting time.

    Also PS dudes have to wait a year to see Echo Strike as a Weekly Heroic and Nightfalls, how many of you run normal strikes now? Not a lot I'm guessing.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure there will be more strikes. The PS exclusive strike from launch was the dust palace, which was a real chore

    I wouldnt be too surprised if all their mentioning of several new strikes from that page is counting all those "same strike as you already played before, but now with Taken enemies!" in with their new strikes, but time will tell I guess.

    Just weird that I can basically see all the new Crucible maps, new subclasses and their different perks but only see 1 new strike listed everywhere?

    I am digging the flavor text on that Titan armor, and the fact that it's hinting at maybe Solar resist? I love the idea of reconnecting with humanity's past.

    But holy crap is it ugly. Here's hoping it, like everything else so far, looks better on a female titan.

    I would guess because they are announcing all the PS exclusive stuff first.

    I found a weekly update where they say:
    • New cooperative Strikes with unique and dynamic new Boss battles
    • Redesigned and reimagined Strikes – Dust Palace, Undying Mind, and Cerberus Vae III – are now overrun by the Taken

    The reason why I am hunting around for stuff like this is that you had me worried that there was an article saying this was the only strike. I love this game, maybe a bit too much, but if the Taken strikes were the only strikes introduced in this game with this expansion, I'd have to call it a day - I'm okay with the idea of the Taken strikes as a way to make old content stay relevant but not as the basis of an entire expansion.

    Edit: To clarify a bit, I'm cool (to an extent) with the way Destiny recycles stuff like where missions take place, it makes the environment seem changing to me, the Refinery in Old Russia as an example, a place we pass through in Strikes and missions maybe about 4 or 5 times, shows the changing balance between the Fallen and Hive on earth. I'm cool with that, I wish it would stretch over into Patrol where you can't be sure what type of enemy you will encounter on any given load-in, but I understand that it is supposed to be a Level 4 patrol area, so I'm cool with that.

    I'm less cool with the way that the Armor and Weapons are recycled over and over again, the Taken King looks to be rectifying that (with the exception of the PS exclusive Warlock gear above, but I don't much care for exclusive gear, I'm aimed towards the end-game content.)

    I am 100% not cool with the idea of end-game content being recycled and packaged as an expansion. Strikes in the form of Nightfalls and Weeklies are end game to me.

    Hunter is totes wearing a cape. Its super dark, but you can see a saturated blue area behind him that is distinctly cape shaped. Shape caped.

    Although I do like the hoodie idea

    I just hope Bungie does a "The Taken has invaded Vault of Glass and Crota's End! Fight new bosses and get new loot in there etc. etc." then I get sad because I doubt they will, Crota/CE is hopefully not just left to rot in insignificance.
