    Oh shit! I don't think I've ever seen that happen either! I was playing like shit that match, and trying to complete a few different quests.

    I spent the last few weeks sniping my ass off to improve and I noticed I'm waaaaaay better.

    Except now I keep losing standard 1v1 pulse duels.

    It's always something...

    I've tried to practice sniping as well, in an attempt to get better if ever called upon again to do Trials, and I think I've improved. The problem is, is that sniping in Trials is very different from nearly all the other game types so I'm still not really sure if it's ultimately been worth it.

    I've also tried to use Handcannons this week, and with the exception of one game which was a complete outlier (i.e. I got the Impreciation quest done), I was not able to grind out another game with 6 primary handcannnon kills.

    The problems were a lot of my fights ended up with me only getting assists; losing nearly all 1vs1 fights when up against someone with a pulse rifle; and lastly just dying to those with Conspiracy shotguns (this is the one with the silly range correct?).

    My K:D ratio just ended up being miserable; barely breaking 1.0, although some of that is due to not using secondary and heavy weapons.

    I also wonder when Bungie will take a look at some of the strikes; they must have data on which ones people are opting out of straight away, because some are complete slogs in addition to being much longer than others.

    Pretty easy. We did four cycles to be safe, and just wiped once. The platform holder with an empty opposite platform has to remember to kill the other sniper, and we all had to focus more on the centurions, but it was not a struggle.

    Speaking of Sisters...

    My son has a Sisters checkpoint on his main character. I'm not exactly sure how, but I think he said he joined a fireteam at Golgoroth and got to the Sisters. He would love it if I could get him through that encounter and maybe through Oryx.

    If anyone would like to help me get his Warlock through that, I would try to be on around 9 Central tonight if we can put together a party to attempt it. PS4.

    Here's the difficulty: I am having some FUN internet issues. It is intermittently going out for me. It comes back after a minute or so but has kicked me from Destiny many times over the past weekend. I don't know if it was due to people being home for Thanksgiving and using up all the damn bandwidth, but regardless, it's been not a good time.


    Anyway, I'll watch for interest. If enough people want to try it, we can try to put it together. If not, or if my internet makes it impossible, no worries.

    Yeah that was easily the most fun I've had in Destiny in a while. I like how it transformed the Altar fight from kind of a snooze to the toughest part of the raid heh. I should be around tonight to finish up, the wildcard is always whether my one bro gets the hall pass from his fiancée.

    Back after two months of no Destiny.

    Did they amp up the sound effects or something? With or without headphones, feel like I'm in the middle of a damn war every fight. It's amazing.

    Also, Hung Jury is super damn powerful

    And the exotic sword is so much fun.

    I didn't think I missed Destiny too much while I was out, but man...it is a blast just loading it up and messing around a bit. Can't wait to get into Trials/Iran Bandanas/HM Raid that I haven't done.

    I will send you a link you can use to apply to the group even though it's "full".

    It'll be in a PM. Just use that and you'll get approved shortly after application. When we are at/over 100 members, we have to do it this way. It's how the100 page is set up.

    The caveat with the Mixamp setup is that you'll need the MS headset adapter to hook it up to the controller. Unless there's another way to get it all hooked in (optical to Mixamp to headphones? Does that give you voice still?) in which case tell me so I can use my Mixamp and A40s!

    Dont get a default one please, I can still barely hear @Erevar at times when he uses that thing.

    I got a pair of Astro A40's, which is basically a neccessity for me, due to bad hearing... I dont think I've heard the ambient music in any of the raids, ever - full party chat on, always.

    I got the official Xbox Stereo Headset for $50 awhile back. They're decent overall, but it's hard to beat the price - it comes with the stereo headset adapter ($25 separately), so even if you hate the actual headset you'll A) have a back-up and B) have the part to allow other headsets to work.

    Amazon link for headset

    Amazon link for stereo adapter

    I think (someone confirm?) that some of the new controllers come with the stereo adapter, as well.

    Edit: Siri, I'm soft-spoken; it's not a fault of the hardware. =P

    The new controllers have a built-in 3.5mm jack that lets you use a lot of headsets without needing the adapter.

    I only use my headset for voice.

    I got one of these and have no complaints so far. If you have one of the new Xbone controllers with the 3.5mm jack built in, or the adapter, it should work no problem even though it's "PS4."

    i went turtle beach because the one i have for my ps4 i like

    the xbone one is a piece of hot garbage

    i mean, it works fine as earphones and a mic

    but it feels really cheap for being like a $120 headset, and doesn't really impress me for the price

    though it does say "powering off" when i hit the power button, so that's totally worth the extra $70 or so i spent

    I don't know, I use a Tritton mixamp with Audio Technica headphones and mic plugged into the ports on the volume control. I assumed the Astro mixamp was basically the same and had both a mic and headphone port. Alternatively, and I really hate plugging them because I work there, but Target's website has got the official stereo headset on sale as part of their Cyber Monday deal. 15% off.

    I just recently got one of those to replace another set (I think also from Triton?) that had two headphones since I, too, only use the headset for chat audio. It seems to work well in purely functional terms but I have to crank the volume all the way up to hear people's voices. There may be some setting I'm missing, though.

    Edit: Note that that's on a PS4. I dunno if my low volume thing is PS4 specific. And it's not like I can't hear people. Once I cranked the volume it works perfectly fine.

    And an audio question on a thread that's been dead-ish for awhile immediately generates like 15 replies, lol. I :heartbeat: all of you so much.

    After reading all your recommendations I'm going with the Xbox One Chatpad + Chat Headset. It's only $35, but doubles as a stereo adapter if I don't like the headset it comes with, and should make searching for stuff on Netflix and Youtube way, way, way easier.

    I know it's not something you guys suggested, but I wouldn't have found it if I hadn't followed your links and read your ideas. Thanks everyone! Much love ya'll!
