Looks like the gunsmith has awesome full-auto rolls for both the DIS-43 and DIS-47, which is nice. May have to do some science to figure out which feels better in the crucible.
Random question, but to pick up a checkpoint, do you have to do anything other than swap to a character and join on someone holding it? You'll then keep it on that character if you leave and come back?

Aaaaand Imprecations kills done. Thanks, glitches match! But I do really want to play a match I can win. Hard to do Weekly Bointies for Shaxx when the match is screwed.
So apparently syzygy is an actual astronomical term for celestial bodies aligning.
also one of the four longest words in the english language without vowels if you don't count y because if y can't even make up its mind then why should we care
A vowel is a sound (phoneme), not a letter (grapheme).
Syzygy has three vowels (in American English, the sound "ɪ" twice, the sound "i" once), all represented by the grapheme "y"
But call me when someone beats Crota using only the PlayStation/Xbox button.
@Booker "Xbox, kill Crota!" Might be worth a try...
The thing about Imprecation: is it a bad gun? Yeah for sure. Are most people in Crucible too terrible for that to matter? Yes again. Go to an unpopular playlist (classic Rumble) and give it a shot. Part of the problem might be you COULD use some practice with hand cannons. I had to do some remedial work on my timing + aim to get up to snuff.

"Syzygy" is my favorite word. Seeing a whole conversation about this random word in a thread about my favorite game is very happy-making. =D

I mean I can see toughing out chaperone or even sword kills. But imprecation is a slow firing shitty hand cannon that can not kill anyone. I tried it in rumble this morning and I was losing to literally every encounter. At all ranges.
Impreciation teaches you how bungie sees hand cannons in y2. You can not stand toe to toe with anyone.
You need to use cover and only expose yourself while firing. Or team shoot. Taking any damage makes head shots imposible.
It's the hardest quest in destiny but it makes you a good hand cannon user ( not that you'd use one over pulses anyway)
I almost broke down and cheesed it. Instead I dropped my kd .4 in one night.
Do all the "1000-Yard Stare" quest rewards have Firefly on them?
I believe so. All quest Conspiracy Theory-D's are identical, for example. as are the Down and Doubt's from the quest reward.
Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

I got a 308 Void Sidearm from the Nightfall. Half of me wants to infuse it into something more 'useful' but i really really like sidearms despite them being useless outside of patrol missions *maybe*.
One of my 6 NFs this week we had 3 void swords against the boss.
Void arrow -> 3 people slashing him -> second void arrow -> more slashing -> dies before he can walk away once
Another two Nightfalls, two new sets of coins.
Anyone else wanna do the NF? I still need it once.
Not sure I will even get the screenshot out of my PS4, but my first Nightfall had all 3 of us get 11 Three of Coins. It was hilarious. It was sad. It was a cavalcade of emotions.

Just as a note in case people were unaware, Thee Darkblade only does his disappearing trick in response to damage from gunfire, so even during non-Burn encounters with the fellow you can prevent him from ever disappearing by only attacking him with supers and swords. A piece of advice that is really helpful when doing the exotic sword version, because it means you can kill your last warden(s) and then be sure that the Darkblade won't disappear before the timer runs out.

Syzygy was Nolan Bushnell's first choice for a company name, but someone already had it. So he had to settle for Atari.

NATBurn took down Hard Mode Oryx from start to finish in a single night! And this was even with my console deciding it had to update right in the middle of a good Golgoroth run. Wasted like 40 minutes and a decent Golgoroth attempt.

Depends whether you're using a regular controller, or Rock Band drums.
