Gaming Destiny | Rise of Iron launch

Well Xur is pretty much a joke this week, I was hoping for Gjallarhorn
 
That gjalahorn looks ridiculous, I don't own one but in tiger strikes I've seen other players drop the bosses health half way in seconds
 
Funny how I always seem to get legendary drops in bunches. Done about 3/4 strikes on the playlist today, got a legendary engram and loads of rares. The legendary turned to the Chest of Alpha Lupi (titan version) and one of the many rares turned into Lord High Fixer. Then the number of engrams decrypted meant I leveled up with the cryptarch who then gave me two more legendary engrams. Unfortunately one turned to shards and the other turned to some boots when I already have the raid boots, so I dismantled.
 
Mask of the third man :)

Been waiting ages for that. Got truth in nightfall a few days ago though : /
 
Gjallerhorn is ok, it was the first legendary or exotic I got. The problem is it taking an exotic spot for the odd time you get heavy weapon ammo in a strike.

It raids it is great d you are willing I burn through ammo packs.

Another week gone on raid, still no boots. Did get the truth but can't see me using it bar the odd nightfall.

I just want Gjallarhorn for the raid, alongside the raid weapons it's just great. I was raiding wlast week and a few people in the fireteam had it, they made easy work of Atheon. That's why I want it so badly, Atheon is a pain on hard mode.

I have the Truth, it's very good but you have no need for it when you have Gjallarhorn.
 
3 or 4 players with Gjallarhorns pretty much rinse Atheon in a couple of teleports.

Thr truth seems rather pointless in comparison.

Can be done in two teleports I heard. Makes the raid super easy.

Didn't Xur sell Gjallarhorn during the first week? I don't understand why he's selling Truth again when he was selling it two weeks ago.

Yeah, it was very early on. I had nowhere near enough coins at that point, I missed out on Sorus the first time round too.
 
I really wish I could purchase this via the destiny app

He will be gone by the time I'm home on Sunday
 
Anyone want to do the nightfall now? Or possibly the raid if we have enough?

And in raids, a group of six with it on hard mode can kill Atheon in about 17 seconds.

They need to remove the RNG from Xur as pretty much everything he has has been sold a lot lately. Ah well, I've now got all three Hunter helmets. Really need a Titan one though but not got the motes for another helm engram...

Xur is random? I would have thought they chose the items to sell. That's a pretty silly way of doing things anyway, especially as a week is a long time to wait.

Yeah, Sunbreakers have been the Warlock option for most Xurdays which is daft, really. Just wish they'd give you the option to spend coins on the engrams rather than forcing you to save up motes.
 
Should be around Sat daytime/Sun evening... possibly this evening.
Ok, cool. This evening is a possibility for me too, not sure about the rest of the weekend at the moment. Hopefully I'll be free for at least one of those and we can get a group together.
 
Who's up for doing the raid today then?
 
I will raid tonight.

Just gambled 25 motes on the helmet engram, came back apothesis veil, not the best, but i only beed gloves now tonget to level 30 on the warlocks.
 
Got the exotic hunter helmet, watch me find an exotic armour engram now.

They only had 4 in that video of killing Atheon in 17 seconds. Its a ridiculous weapon.
 
Xur's offerings so disappointing this week.

Although I did get lucky with my exotic engram and got a Warlock helm which will give me 30 without being able to do hard mode raid.
 
Assuming you never, ever miss Gjalahorn is so much better than Truth that its depressing, as someone who had Truth drop and no Gjalahorn

Truth is a better pvp heavy and its very easy to hit your target with it. While you dont always get a few seconds to lock on to your target down the sights (has better tracking) it has a larger blast radius than Gjala too. So even if you dont get a direct hit it should be enough.

However for a single target that you arent going to miss Gjala does have a fair bit more dps. Probably too much damage in comparison imo
