Why isn't Xur selling the upgraded version of the exotics?

BTW he's selling Plan C, again! (@afrocentricity it's your chance)
Helm of Inmost Light
Spine of Ahamkara
Light Beyond Nemesis

Was always going to be next week that he starts selling them. Bit crap that there's no use for MoL at Xur anymore, I've got 33 of them now.

Figured as much, hopefully Bungie rethink it until then.

BTW he's selling heavy ammo synthesis again, I'm gonna ball like a 100.
 
Are any of those armour items worth getting? I've been buying anything I don't have just to use up strange coins, but obviously now I'll need them for exotic shards or whatever it is.

Depends on your playing style and the items you need. I'm not getting anything, spending my 70 coins on heavy ammo synthesis and exotic shards. IMO none of the exotic armour are worth it.

I present, six minutes of trying to get the attention of Waldner. Worst thing about it all is at the start of the video you can see he was right under the chest and we were shooting/pointing at it even before he went walkies :lol:

:lol:

Brilliant! Did you also capture him bricking it when the final boss crawled out of the sewer and you and I were sat on the floor watching him get spanked, by any chance? :lol:
 
Probably the worst Xur week we've ever had.

Last night in the normal raid we got 3 exotic's out of the exotic chest. Icebreaker, plan C and Gjallahorn. Never had it that generous before!. Gutted I got the ice rather than the Gjalla though :(
 
Brocky In Black said:
Yeah. Legendaries are unaffected.

So, is Xur selling chest armour?

Nope.

Unfortunately not, that was a fantastic moment though. I really want to be there when he does the next mission as it is the one where you enter the building with the captain etc outside of it for the first time... dark places and a moment he'll love :D

Who got the Gjallahorn? Someone from the Caf?

The mission on the moon, where you go into the pitch-black room full of Hive, should be fun. :lol:

    • Fix in progress, to be released in a future update

Played the demo of this on PS4 have to say was disappointed, saying that though I've never been into FPS or never truly appreciated them but was hoping FPS on next gen consoles would change my mind.

Just looks like a PS3 game to me.

It's been in development for a few years and is cross gen, was never going to be the best looking.

No, it really doesnt.
Just the most fleeting of glances at some of the textures on the player models would suggest that a PS3 churning out that kind of fidelity would be a puddle of molten slag in a few seconds.

I'd say that the demo isn't really a good reflection of the full game, as a lot of stuff doesn't really appear until you hit level 15, or so. Then, once you hit level 20, you can get the legendary and exotic stuff that allows you to start doing strikes and then raids.

Also, while it's possible to play mostly solo, the game is very much designed with co-op play in mind. Play it with a few mates and it's much better.
 
Finished normal raid on my Titan. Still not a single piece of armour or VoC :(

Did get Red Death though.
 
Brocky In Black said:
Not so much rage quit. I was just in an irritable mood in general. I tried to tell the guy his mic was overly loud a couple of times, but he kept talking over me, so I just left.

Did you end up getting anywhere?

We need an all Caf' squad tonight. Herc and those other guys are cool, but nowhere near as on the ball as the team we had the other night.

I'll be on around 18:00.
Click to expand...
Yeah, we got to the gatekeeper. I'm up for a new try tonight. Working until 9pm your time so I'll be ready after that if you haven't gone already.
 
Got Suros in my third Nightfall of the week.

It's the one gun I've wanted since the game began as I didn't have the coins when Xur sold it.

wp Brad. :lol:

You two had a lot of patience! :D

They did :lol: I'm really grateful they gave up their time to help!

@Damien is the next mission scary? I'm not liking this talk of darkness and stuff.

Also, how does it work with playing with randomers? Do you just join a game and they start with you or something?

It's location based so wherever you are random people who are relatively local to you can end up in your session. They may be doing the same mission as you or another but they don't really affect you. Friends on your list can join you directly - like me and Brocky. We directly were in your mission and helped out by sitting down and laughing.

For the next mission I recommend not starting it until I'm on. That's all I'll say.

:nervous:

So can these randomers directly assist you even though they might be doing their own thing?
 
Damien said:
Yep, unless it is a darkness zone (your favourite kind of zone).

Don't know when you'll be on but I'm coming on in a few minutes

All this talk of darkness is putting me off. They need some lava lamps or at least some mood lighting to brighten the places up. It's all dark and depressing.

So darkness zones need to be done solo, no one can affect your mission?

They can if they're on your fireteam (like me and Brocky were)
