Gaming Destiny | Rise of Iron launch

Don't dismantle anything you would deem "worthy" for now. There is always a chance we might be able to "Ascend" them again.

The reason for the new stuff being better than the old stuff is because they don't want players getting attached to the old weapons, otherwise everyone would just continue to keep using Fatebringer, Gjallahorn, Black hammer everywhere etc..
Yeah I'll vault them. Absolutely love my bad juju and icebreaker. The raid armour isn't too bad either :D
 
How are we earning these legendary marks now? Seems like they're less available than Vanguard marks were before, but that's only from first glance.
 
Not yet. Doing the field test weapons so I can hopefully get a legendary weapon tomorrow from the weapons guy
I just used the test auto rifle and pulse rifle. What do we need to do to turn it into a legendary?
 
Ah feck. The field test weapons require level 38. Ah well, got to gunsmith rank 1 on one of my characters. Over the rest of the week I'll work on my other characters and see how things go.
 
Got to level 40 on my hunter, 39 and almost 40 on my warlock, and just 35 with my Titan but the Titan is my favourite new class by far. The hammer is ridiculously OP. They're all cool though.
 
They should add an option to bring matchmaking into more story missions or some sort of bulletin board in the Tower where you can see others looking for people who are at the same point in the game, I dont mind doing the regualr difficulty story ones on my own as the level im at they're not much trouble, but some of them, especially if you wanna try the more difficult settings can get a bit mental going solo.

The cinematics/cut scenes for the first few missions of TTK were brilliant though, much better stuff from Bungie, though I've a feeling the reason loads of shit was cut from the original was down to some strong-arming from Activision to split the game up for the DLC packs. cnuts.

I'm gonna watch a few guides and have a go at Vault of Glass tonight then tomorrow try the Crota's End raid to finish up that storyline before going any further with TTK though... surely there's matchmaking in the Raids isn't there?

Nope, no matchmaking in the raids. Requires too much communication and would tend to fall apart otherwise. I can give you a hand with VOG if you need help.
 
Aye I did some research there after posting that. I can see why they wouldnt want randoms going in new not knowing what to do but in these days when a walkthrough is up on youtube/the Internet the day a game/expansion is released they should at least open up the option of matchmaking for them, though it would probably take one or two clampets just there to troll in a group to ruin the whole thing.
 
No sure about everyone else but I love it.

Story mission done with my Hunter who is now LVL 40 with 222 light - Best gun so far is Righteous VII auto rifle 243 attack. Enjoyed the main story and loving the amount of quests after as well. Plenty to keep people busy, new void sub class is a lot of fun although I have heard it is a lot weaker than Warlock and Titan.
 
You can get them from doing the daily I think, also some off quests.

That's cool. In terms of getting them from strikes, do you only get them from those 240+ light strikes? Because the normal playlist doesn't list them as a possible reward (I think :lol:)

I'll have to try and do some stuff to get some legendary marks anyways, I want to have purple armour and weapons again.

I think you have to do the strike playlists and I know there are extra rewards for players who do more back to back rather than dipping into one etc.

Most of the legendary armor I have seen so far is not much better than some blue and green stuff.

Sounds decent. I'm sure I'll give everything a good go at one point or another anyways, there's no rush.
