    XUR HAS ORPHEUS RIG!
    THIS IS NOT A DRILL

    Last night I was really hoping he'd have Rig today, but figured there was no way it would happen.

    To hell with that, he has my Hallowfire Heart I've been wanting for my solar titan. WOOT!

    Hallowfire Heart is also stupid good and basically the go-to solar titan exotic imo. When in doubt, more space-magic is never wrong.

    Yeah, I'm pretty stoked, I've actually never been to WW despite living like 2 miles from Universal since it was built. Last year it was at the WB Studios backlot :biggrin:

    You know, there's a lot of legit complaints with the current state of things, but I've never understood the bounty hate. I just grab the ones I'll likely accomplish in my session. Basically none of them matter too much aside from spider's weekly and petra's weekly, and they last a week.

    There used to be a white quality weapon you could draw on a higher light character that didn't have a level requirement to speed up light gains on lower characters... is that still a thing? Does anyone know what got it was?

    There's still a weaker version of this:
    Give alt big guns, then there are white/blue/green sets of gear you can pull out of collection cheap. Each time you pull an item out, it raises your collection level. So you can cycle through the set pulling slightly higher LL gyreat over and over. It pretty quickly has deminishing returns, but it's a quick way to juice up an alt!

    It was Sorrow MG2 and they totally added a level requirement with the Black Armory patch

    Good news tho, Horror Story and Thunderlord are still usable on lowbies

    @Zombie Gandhi and whoever else might Xbox raid, I'm getting kids in about 20 minutes then getting online. And hopefully my power doesn't go out completely... It's crazy windy and we've had power whimper a couple times and go totally black once.

    Blind PC group did good tonight, got up to the boss before calling it for time. My first drop was the curated shotgun, so I won the raid everyone else go home.

    I picked up a the curated Fusion Rifle (Tempered Dynamo). It's got Backup Plan and Rampage which, yeah, I like that.

    Haven't used it a ton but if you switch to the sight that's less range and more handling switching over to the thing is super super snappy.

    I think the final Scourge of the Past fight is my favorite raid boss

    real spoilers
    Metal Gear?!

    I felt like I was right back in MGS4 being in the busted ruins of a city fighting a giant mech

    Got the shotgun, not curated, but it still has Trench Barrel and then Genesis which is p nice actually

    I don't know why genesis rolls on kinetics. Genesis on an energy shotgun or sniper is really good though imo. Being able to run in with a rapid-fire shotgun, blow the shield off and then instantly have a full mag again to melt through the health too is really great.

    Genesis does just fine on Threat Level, works just like you described

    So I was hanging out with Malakaius and Basil doing some good ol' fashioned Gambit. We were doing pretty well! Got matched up against a 2-stack and randos and won pretty solidly.

    The entire group of players stayed in the matchmaking lobby, and the next round our 4th player got swapped for someone who was on the enemy team the previous match. This player proceeds to intentionally AFK for the entire next match, performing enough movement actions to prevent our AFK reports from automatically booting them.

    Well, we won anyway. Oops. Instead of ruining our day by making it 3v4, this salty player gave us a victory that I'm going to be chuckling over for a long time.

    I don't hate gambit as much as I thought I would.

    This is good news.

    It helps I've been on the winning team 10 out of the last 11 games. I also got the meatball on game 5 which is nice!

    How does Gambit work exactly? All I know is that it's some sort of PvEvP mashup.

    How does Gambit work exactly? All I know is that it's some sort of PvEvP mashup.

    Two teams on separate maps fight waves of NPC enemies which drop "motes" when killed. You pick up the motes by running over them and then deposit them in a central Bank; if you die while holding motes, those motes are gone. You can hold a maximum of 15 motes.

    When you deposit motes, it can send a Blocker that the enemy team has to kill before they can deposit in their Bank again. 5 motes sends an orange-bar Taken Phalanx, 10 sends a yellow-bar Taken Knight, and 15 sends a boss-level Taken Ogre.

    When your team has deposited 25 motes, and then again at 50 motes deposited, a portal opens that allows one of you to invade the enemy team. When you invade you get an overshield that absorbs damage and can see nameplates over the enemy team so you know where they are and how many motes they're carrying. The object is to kill them and cause them to drop motes, falling behind your team.

    When your team deposits 75 motes, you summon a Primeval, a big tough boss baddie. Killing the Primeval is how you win a round of Gambit (Gambit matches are best of 3). The Primeval will also spawn with several Primeval Envoys, which when killed give both teams a buff that increases the damage they deal to their Primeval. Once a team has summoned a Primeval, the invasion portal of the enemy team becomes permanently open, allowing frequent invasions while fighting your Primeval. Being killed by an invader at this point will cause your Primeval to heal for 15% of its maximum health, so this is a good catchup mechanism.
