Gaming Destiny | Rise of Iron launch

It took me so, so long to get rid of the special synthesis I had, then this event craps a whole load of them back onto me :mad:
:lol: I've so many engrams as well. About to fill my postmaster up on all three chars as well.
 
I'm farming chests again for an hour if anyone wants to join me. Still yet to find a single key :(
 
I've only got one. Stupid RNG, some seem to have plenty of them.
I've managed to get 2 of them. Though the number of chests I've opened is stupidly high. Skywatch is good, getting three shots at each chest basically every time, and four if it is in one spot.

Yeah, Skywatch is probably the best place given the small size of the area, though with the number of different events that can happen in that zone it can be hectic.
 
Makki and I had a four/five man VoG fireteam on venus and alternated between the Citadel and Ember caves. I was only able to open the chest twice each go though, but during the waves the sheer number of people made light work of it.

That's the spot I've been running. There's only one chest that you can get three dips from, but 50% of the time you can get to the event in The Citadel, after the one at The Ember Caves is done, as well.

Yeh, have a decent number of people really makes it very easy. Had to do the one on forgotten shores by myself and could only get his shield down before I had to reload and it simply went back up.

How does the timing work? wolves start at both at the same time, so you got to smash one out and rush to the second?
 
You really have to hope that after all this that the keys are actually worth it. Would suck badly if we did all this farming simply for a chest full of blue engrams :lol:

For some reason I had to attempt to do the forgotten shore one by myself too. The other three I've done (not done day 5 yet) there were plenty of others but forgotten shore was like a graveyard.

My Thorn hasn't had its second perk unlocked yet either so couldn't use its DoT to keep the shield down. Will have to get on that at some point.

I'll help you run it after the match, mate.

You managed to kill them all now? if not I'm bumming about in skywatch currently if you want to jump on quickly

Ah thanks for the offer but done it now - my fault for not mentioning in the post... a few times I went to forgotten shore and there was nobody there, so I went to attempt to do the nightfall and just as I spawned in, the fallen ship arrived and there were a few other people there so managed to do it in the end
 
So the DLC is dropping tomorrow and I'm coming back to play it. I'll imagine the game has changed quite a bit then?

I see you guys are still going strong though!

Welcome back. Think most of us took a short break from it at some point. Only really been this week with the queens wrath and chest event that we have been hitting it hard again.
 
So tomorrow the DLC will be activated around 6pm BST I think (sucks for Dargon). Will probably best to blast through the story missions on one char, then do the nightfall then have a go at PoE so I'll be on around then if anyone wants to join/hasn't got a group set up already

Thanks mate. The queens wrath is back?

@Damien what's the PoE? The arena mode? I'm way out of the loop.

Yeah, Prison of Elders arena mode. There are a few different waves with different objectives to do and at the end once you beat the final boss you enter a treasure room and you can open a chest with a key.

QW is back, and they've improved it

Does the arena mode have an end boss? I thought it was horde mode with no end level. I saw a video the other day about bosses appearing in patrol, that's not it, right?
