Gaming Destiny | Rise of Iron launch

Yeah its decent short/mid range. Not really tried it too much to be honest. I prefer high impact auto rifles but not had any drop for me since early on

Yeah I don't like the hand cannon's now, has to be auto rifles for me just hope I get one soon. Have a 275 Pulse Rifle but its only a rare on, 287 Shotgun (rare again) and working on my sword which is at 255 currently.
 
Anything good from Xur? Cant go on until later... What defence rating are the armor pieces and all that? Think I should be able to get up to low 280's on my titan, with a good helmet and buying a shell (only 235, dragging me down so much). Also are the prices the same as before? Just strange coins?

Xur:

Legacy Engram - Heavy x 31 coins (Year 1 stats only)

An Insurmountable Skullfort - Helmet (Titan) - 280 Defense x 13 coins
Young Ahamkara's Spine - Gauntlets (Hunter) - 280 Defense x 13 coins
The Impossible Machines - Gauntlets (Warlock) - 280 Defense x 13 coins

Exotic Engram - Helmet x 19 coins
 
Also, if you get the exotic engrams, the light was 290 from them for me. Not sure about anyone else
Is it random class helmet you get from that? Or do you get the helmet on the class you're using? Since I have my 3 characters should I just switch between them and go to xur or just buy bunch and hope for the best

Random class, and I've mostly got year 1 stuff from that. Got three Obsidian Minds, Helm of Inmost Light and Empyrean Bellicose
 
Stupid exotic weapon engram from xur. Didn't realise it was just year one weapons and wasted 31 coins on it. Year one weapon came at the old level as well
 
I've got the original game, how much is it going to cost me to get all the expansions packs?
A lot... Think the new one is like $40 alone, and then the other 2 you can get for around 30 combined I think. Basically buying a whole new game.

Or if you have a friend who has them, you can set their account as the primary account on your ps4, and then all the content is shared with all the accounts along with him having it on his account on his ps4. My brother bought it and has his account as primary on mine so I get them all for free basically :)
 
To be fair Bungie made it very clear that it was a year one only - also the fact they called it a Legacy Engram was another indicator.
Most likely, though I haven't read anything bungie have posted. Just saw engram and bought it straight away. My fault for not looking closer really.

Steady on there! I only had the base game before TTK came out. I bought the Destiny: The Taken King - Legendary Edition for £40 which has the base game and all expansions in it. Now I can sell my standard copy of Destiny if I want to. It's actually decent value for people who didn't have any of the expansions really.

Got a stag. It's shit but looks great
 
I got a 290 light Mask of the Third Man. I'm sitting on something like 257 light at the moment too!
Great!

I'm on 284 light now. Must be the only person with 280+ light not to have a sword. Finding the flakes in loot chests is a drag so I've been doing other missions and stuff while I procrastinate.

I know its apparently much easier with a Nightstalker hunter but not played with that subclass much yet

:lol:

I've not bothered with the sword quest yet either and I am a Nightstalker Hunter! In truth, i can't be arsed to faff around trying to get the flakes even though it is easier as a Nightstalker. I'll get round to it eventually though, of course

How many do you actually have to collect. I ran about for a bit and got about five before getting bored and going to do something else.

25 I think. I'm on 6, most of which I got while trying to get the five calcified fragments

I got the 25 flakes in about an hour, max. Just make a circle around the mausoleum area, going into the doors along the sides and then in the fallen cabal ship. They spawn really quickly.

25... If you do it with a group of people you can all split up in the mausoleum and then tell each other when you find one. Doesn't take that long really.
 
Sounds like I'm going to have to bite the bullet and go back to farming just to get the sword. Bright side is I'm using the nightstalker so finding the chest is far easier.
 
So I got a bunch of exotics now after using those coins and buying a few. Have 4 helmets on my titan (taikonaut, insurmountable skullfort, empyrean bellicose, helm of inmost light), then have crest of alpha lupi for a chest piece, and then the Jade Rabbit scout rifle for primary (290 attack with a really high impact). Also a chest piece and helmet for warlock (alchemist's raiment and the stag) along with the gauntlets Xur was selling for both hunter and warlock.

Have to admit, I have incredible luck in this game :lol: Got 3 random exotic engrams from xur with my titan, and all 3 were titan helmets (even though I'm pretty sure it's a 1 in 3 chance to get it for that class), then got an exotic from a legendary engram, and yesterday I must have gotten at least 5 legendaries from blue engrams. Also a couple of sublime engrams (though those are normal legendaries).

You said you're on 257 light now, right? You should be fine to grind the weekly heroic strikes and get a boatload of engrams from them. I got two legendary engrams from one strike

Yeah I'm at 257. Could give the heroic strikes a go, just didn't want to be too gimped in them or anything.
