    He is the metaphorical burger and caught his enemy unaware but the enemy didnt die from his attack and turns the table on him. (eventually?)

    Also, apparently you can just barely survive a sticky grenade stuck on your neck if you have an overshield.

    Dear Lords of Iron:

    Please for the fucking love of all drop me a decent light level ghost on any of my characters.

    I'm 330-335 in every slot on all 3 characters except ghosts.

    I don't have a single ghost over 320.

    Every time a ghost drops for someone else I die a little. I mean, I love the infusion fodder for stuff, and I love that I've been able to get such high light level almost solely from IB's since the april update.

    But good lord my ghosts. WTT a dozen breitomarts stands for a single ghost.

    Your best bet is probably Challenge of Elders, I've gotten a lot of ghosts from there.

    Yeah, I actually have yet to do that. My friends list tends to be offline a lot, or at least not in Destiny, these days. :(

    And I just haven't been assed to LFG it.

    I did get a 334 last night from IB so I'll take it. It'll be passed between my characters for the time being to keep their lights up but still nice to have something.

    Tonight's IB was mostly full of laggy buttholes, even had a match where the entire enemy team save for one guy were yellow or redbar. Couple that with the still insane aim assist on snipers and it wasn't exactly fun. Still, good loot drops tonight all around.

    The last two games I forgot how to play Destiny

    my b

    pretty fun though, I'm so close to 5

    Some of these pubs in Iron Babar make me want to chew my arm off.

    Playing on black shield. Have the inside locked down, built up a 2000ish point lead and then enemy team manages to super us out of there. Pubs just refuse to push inside. I clear it out maybe 4-5 times and nobody comes in, they just stand outside next to the doors.

    Part of me wanted to jump into team chat and ask if they needed a fucking written invitation.

    Turned in all the weekly bounties and ended up with Warlock boots, a Nirwens (meh) and a Weylorans (YUSSSSS).

    Been kicking myself for not buying the last vendor one, so I'm happy about that. Came with Army of one | Quickdraw/Snapshot/oiled frame | Mulligan... soooooo it's ok? I don't snipe much, so I dunno. Someone tell me it's good!

    Also ended up buying the vendor Colovance and getting another right after... now I dunno which to use.

    Who's next | Ex rounds/Casket mag/smallbore | Hidden Hand

    Life support | Ex rounds/feather mag/smallbore | Reactive reload

    I think the second one, but I do like Hidden Hand....

    Neither has sights that are anything to right home about, but they're all good enough. (Man I love holo sights)

    I haven't played a single match of IB, heh. Got busy with events in other games, Halo 5 dropped Warzone Firefight, and I was up at my family's camp this weekend as well. I've still got a completed weekly from the last IB to turn in, but I don't think I'll get around to it, not all that concerned about the gear available this time.

    We had some good matches on Firebase Delphi (definitely not my favorite match for callouts) but did not make it to the Lighthouse today.

    We had one moment that was pretty funny to me, I get ressed and I'm about to activate my super, Arteen goes SIRI NOOO!!! THERE'S A TETHER UP!!! (Its barely not able to hit me in this spot)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qF3IkeWtuI

    I kill the last guy and Arteen is like "Oh? Never mind" then the enemy warlock self res in the middle of me still hammering and the guy is fucking standing exactly where I'm still already throwing hammers at and that warlock is like "SELF-RESURRECTION BITCHE- oh shit, is that Titan asshole still throwing fucking hammers?" And instantly dies.

    I also bit the bullet and decided to give up the safety of the magnetic void grenade and start working on learning the supression grenade.

    The first time I shut down a stormcaller's super and then killed him was a pretty amazingly fun time.

    Big thanks to everyone who let me tag along for IB tonight! End result of this weekend was a jump from light 326 up to 330, including a 335 machine gun! Once I went back into the solo queue, I was back to putting out some pretty insane numbers, proving that I'm in the Upper Tier of the Bozo League at least. While I was looking for the screenshot from that match, I also found in my screenshot folder a series of inexplicable 15 minute videos of my Titan, who I haven't played since December, idling on Mars while I was clearly AFK. So, uh, glad I found that and cleared it off my hard drive.

    My 320 ghost is now my only gear below 330, so maybe I'll try to drum up a CoE run or two tomorrow.

    Realizing lately that I don't really trust or respect basically any of the moderators here. So, good luck with life, friends! Hit me up on Twitter @DesertLeviathan

    I should quite like it if you wouldn't get stuck on bits of the map.

    Like door frames, or random bits of cloth that stick out along the edge of a box.

    By all means, give things a bump ala real life if my shoulder brushes door frame but stopping dead is some garbo

    For all my talk about my love of the IB scout I ended up infusing it into my MIDA.

    At the end of the day all hidden hand does is get the AA up closer to MIDA's base and there's nothing that can compare to the MIDA's sheer ability to also be mid range and semi-auto. Is ttk slower? Yeah but it's a ton more forgiving.

    An EX Rounds Colovance's Duty will also be more punishing, as both hits will flinch your target.

    So the 335 covalence I had drop yesterday with explosive rounds, triple tap and third eye... Infusion fodder or worth keeping around?

    Oh I agree and if another drops with ex rounds then I'll try and keep it around but I had a choice with my limited play time and resources to keep the more specialized weapon at 333 or to infuse up my generalist jack of all trades weapon and the second won out for where I am.

    I don't play enough to have a lot of infusion fodder to support more than a gun or two and the MIDA made more sense.

    If IB was always on I might have made a different choice.

    edit: I also do really well with the speed of the MIDA. That made the choice easier too.

    I'm back to work today, so I won't be able to make it.



    Also, I had time yesterday for a couple of rounds... the new Colovance's are both excellent. Ex rounds is maybe my favorite weapon perks. I snagged a couple of kills because I could see a foot to shoot at through an archway and the explosive rounds polished off enemies that thought they were in cover. :twisted:

    Also, having started to play my Warlock a bit more... Singer with Sunbreakers is great. Just grenades and area denial for days, and flame shield is soooooo good.

    I'm sorry for missing the raid the other day but I can definitely finish it off tonight. I forgot about a party that my wife had signed us up for attending. It was one of her former coworker's 75th birthday party on Saturday night.

    So, I'm really sorry for flaking out on Saturday but I will definitely be on for tonight.

    On the topic of scout rifles. Until a couple months ago, I was one of the seven people on the planet who had a Windows Phone and liked it. It worked well and did everything I needed it to do.

    I kind of feel like The Inward Lamp is the Windows Phone of scout rifles/Destiny. I love it to death and never, ever see anyone using it. I do better with it than MIDA or the higher impact scouts by far.

    It's absolutely a good rifle and fun to use, especially the Full Auto/High Stability one. But in both PvE and PvP there are statistically better ones to use. Colovance's I think has the highest Impact and can one shot acolytes in the HM raid. I want to say a Full Auto Treads Upon Stars would out perform the Lamp as well. That being said, just use what works for you or you like.

    SUROS DIS-47 (Gunsmith), The Inward Lamp (Trials of Osiris), NL Shadow 701X (Crucible Drop) are all the same archetype.

    I got wrecked by a couple of guys using a Lamp the other day... I hardly see anyone using one, but I kinda wish I had one after those matches.

    Edit - If you're looking for a scout in that type, the DIS-47 is a great pick actually... it's very similar to the Lamp statwise, with lower reload speed but higher AA. Very similar range and stability.
