Gaming Destiny | Rise of Iron launch

So I reached Vanguard 3 and the Postmaster gave me 'Unfriendly Giant' rocket launcher and shards. What did others get from him for it?

I don't actually use a rocket launcher but they have their uses so will level this one up if people think it's any good.

Edit: Just bought Shadow Price and got those 20 Energys to get it to 300. Watch me get an exotic or legendary AR now!

I got the Unfriendly Giant 3 times! It's pretty cool though, I use it all the time, super handy in boss fights.
 
Managed to get all the pvp out of the way for my bad juju bounty. Possibly my less than impressive internet, possibly that I was playing iron banner, so others have better gear, but my God is it a pile of turd.
 
Just solo'd the weekly 28, if any wants a laugh, I am trying to solo the nightfall.

Feel free to join at any time.
I got to the boss but no fecking chance lol. What happened with you joining and leaving?

I've played the crucible 3 times overall. Hate PvP shooters it's never balanced. Just glad there's enough to do in the single player campaign
 
Got Ice Breaker as well as Bad Juju. Need to give them a try now. Anyone need help with anything?

To be fair, when I play the team deathmatch mode (can't remember what it's called) back when the game first came out, I quite enjoyed it. I think Control as a game mode really doesn't suit this game though, as there is no possible way to be clever or tactical, you just have to constantly be on the move and hope you win the reflex/connection lag contest when you find opponents.
 
Its supposed to be easiest to solo the nightfall, especially with the cheese spot and icebreaker. Infinite snipers on him
 
Need 230 vanguard rep and 53 marks to finally make vanguard lvl 3. Sort of gave up doing the bounties as I didn't realise that you needed to be lvl 3 to buy the legendary weapons. My mission is to get a legendary auto rifle. Will need to wait till the refresh on Tuesday so I can access more bounties

pre-Ice Breaker I got to the Priest with ease. It was just getting in the cheese spot where I fecked up and died. To say I was gutted is an understatement.
 
Bought the exotic sniper - brilliant and regenerates ammo. Add that to my exotic shotgun. Just need legendary or exotic AR and Rocket Launcher.

Was hoping to get an exotic chest or arms from him but he has a helmet again. 20 coins still, will wait till next week.
 
Anyone want to do some tiger strikes? Got my alt up to 22 so, although I might die a bit, I shouldn't be completely out of my depth.

Refreshes every day doesn't it?

Patrol missions and tiger strikes will get you there early if you don't mind the grind.

Just giving the Legendary AR I got a run out now, so far so good.

Did the same thing. First time I didnt realise he's freed without you doing anything, when I did the strike I always ran up to his pod. I was sat there switching guns around like a lemon

Second time got him
 
Finally got my infinity

Yeah wrote the last bit wrong. The bounties refresh daily but the vanguard marks are every Tuesday. I'm all maxed out for the marks. I done 12 tiger strikes earlier

Which legendary AR are you using?
 
I bought a shadow price this evening, the slowed down fire rate when ADS on my Suros has been getting on my nerves.

It's forcing me to hip fire to get the best DPS and its pissing me off.
 
There we go. Killed Atheon 2nd time today with my alt, got Epilogue this time. First time was shards and chatterwhite

That's exactly what I did :lol: then when I realised, I panicked and tried to go in platform but died.

Finally got my infinity

:lol: I only got my Infinity like half an hour after we completed the nightfall. I was still about 60 off so kept making a new nightfall and trying to get there.

Now there's just that stupid shotgun bounty to take care of. 25 K/D
 
Finally got to rank 2 on my vanguard, can finally start buying legendary armors. Got one of the exotic weapon bounties, but that seems like it'll take forever. I need to do 25 strike missions for one of the things.
 
Are we going to have a punt on doing the road on hard at some point this weekend to see how we fare?

It's much easier than it sounds as it's K/D spread rather than ratio ie. Just get 25 more kills than deaths over several games. I'm hardly god's gift to the crucible but I managed it in 3 games of rumble with a trusty shotgun.

That changes everything. I thought a 25 KD in a single game was insane.
 
Shadow price. In it's basic form I notice no difference at all to the gun I was using. Will see how things pan out when it's fully upgraded tomorrow!
Yeah that's what I'm going to get, is it better than doctor nope?

I am terrible in PvP and did it in 2 and a bit games.

If you join up with 2 others on mikes and stick together you could probably do it in two.

Its easiest to do it on rumble I think it is the 3vs3 one, just find a decent camping spot and you can do it pretty quickly.

Skirmish
 
This is odd, I can't play the game because it says my PSN+ has ran out, but it hasn't. Anyone having the same issues?
 
Got the ice breaker last night at 2am :angel:
can't wait to try it out later!
 
Is PSN down? I cannot seem to do any PvP as it's locked for me, for some reason. Pretty sure I've paid for my PS+.

@PlayerOne Same here mate, you beat me to it.

Wonder if other people are having this issue, I can see a few on my friends list playing online.
 
PSN does really seem to struggle at the beginning of the weekend, every weeend
 
Was looking forward to doing some PvP before I head out, won't happen now I guess.
