wrightone86 thanks for clarifying. that makes sense too...

this has me interested tho:


Dragon’s Breath

•Remove Pyromancer and Tripod perks

◦Replaced with Surplus and Who’s Next
•Add intrinsic perk Napalm: Rocket fires on a remote detonation trigger

◦Hold to trigger to fire, release trigger to detonate
◦Detonation drops a Solar Damage napalm canister
•Reduced projectile speed to help timing of the trigger release. Reduce detonation radius of initial rocket. Reduce mag size to 1, increase Inventory

and this:

General

•3 of Coins are now applicable in Crucible playlists at match completions

Wait what?! 

Swapped Tripod for Surplus...interesting move

That remote detonation trigger seems...interesting....still don't think people will use it

Anyone hit the SRL up yet?

Apparently 3oC works in SLR matches (sidenote SLR made me think of Lupe )

What's slr? Acronyms aren't my strong suit and I work on government projects

putting in work - Un has his own crew. Don't count on him rolling consistently unless they drop off like they did with the crota stuff. Un also has a job now so lord knows what his schedule will be.

In all honesty, you and Fleece really need to patch things up so we can get the numbers where we need them. Someone has to be the bigger man one day.

And you can actually carry a low light person in the hard raid. The only part where it hurts is Oryx so in theory, you can carry him and allow him to pick up higher level items (like what you have been doing) along the way. Doing that like 1-3 weeks would have the lower level dude sitting nice (in theory) while allowing you to get to Oryx and possibly finish with another team if needed.

No I'm talking about dudes whose light is like 280-290 wanting to be carried through. We tried it to carry two 290 through yesterday and it was mad hard man because they were constantly dying. We figured since we didn't have anyone else we would give it a shot. Honestly even trying to carry the 300 light dudes is tough, not saying it can't be done but it's tough.

You also have to keep in mind that I'm playing with randoms and some of them are impatient because if you don't get it done in a couple of attempts then they're out. Then you others start leaving because the new people joining will take time to mesh.

Of course if it's us then we're going to have patience and help each other through.

Another grime ball tactic I seen dudes doing was they would join the group for the checkpoint and then dip out once they get it

Didn't know we were second string for Un damn hopefully he can throw us a bone

Welcome to LFG

And yea, 2nd string? How about practice squad
You don't need a bone tho. You are def learning some great things. If everyone knows how to perform their role then things go better.

It ain't even like that bro

 

[putting in work]

I think SLR is the mario cart racing thing they just put into Destiny.

Just taking a guess but could be.

It's supposed to be SRL

Sparrow Racing League

[bigj505]

Thanks guys. I haven't been able to remember the name of the flying thing for months now

Sparrow. It's a sparrow.

How's that working for you? 

 

[ciscokid]

Yeah I though it was Sparrow League Racing for some reason

 

[Warmachine85]

They just tweaked Sunbreakers. Strikers and Defenders got a buff. I'm not complaining. Sunbreakers should not be able to tank a high impact snipe headshot.

Dude its a super. People seem to forget what a super is meant to do. Supers are suppose to be op. Its funny tho not gonna waste my breath any more about it tho.

Might wanna read the patch notes. Its not just the super ability they patched for Sunbreakers.

Saw that if you haven't completed the Chaperone quest with the TLW, you can equip and run Sparrow races and you can get credit for the bounty with wins.

Lol that's clutch info, never would've of thought of that.


Got my chaperone by using I Sunbreaker Titan in Mayhem clash with max intellect and an exotic sword. My KD was roofless lol

I'm all good on the tech stuff. When the guvy's come around with their fancy acronyms tho..... :x

 

[ciscokid]

Well maybe if i used the right acronym it would've helped

 

[soundview]

 

Damn J I didn't get to do this yesterday I was with a group Raiding because I had never beat Oryx on HM so was getting that done before the reset. Didn't get it done until like 1am EST

dudes kept leaving and we had to LFG for more guys, but then we finally got it done.

I only went up one light level for beating Oryx

I want that Bad JuJu but I popped my 3ofC and got the Red Death so we'll see how it goes. Got some other stuff that was meh but I'm happy I made it over the 311 hump so all exotics will decode at 310+

I needed a good pulse rifle and the Red Death dropped at 310.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone get a bad juju from an engram or chest . Only way I have seen people get one is haveinga Y1 and then buying the Y2 from the kiosk.

I got one from an engram.....3 weeks ago. Love that gun. Got it at 294 right now.

Also, almost everyone from Xbox went to Fallout, Halo, COD, or Gears. There just way too many other franchises that pulls them away and now that they're adding backwards compatibility... sheesh @bigj505 might bounce and start trickshotting in MW2 on rust or something

its all good. as flakin willy said, if you see me on, just jump in the party or send an invite if I'm not in one. I'm still gonna be on like I have to do the nightfall this week x3 and I have to do this crucible stuff too.

if you didn't know, there is a crucible quest line that if you complete it, you get access to Lord Shaxxx (spelling?) bounties. These bounties can reward you with Night Fall type rewards (the one that you complete is the complete 5 of the Shaxxx bounties).

might be up your alley @TimShepard

I just need to get this need for speed done.

Let's run the Nighfalls, then?

Yea, I'm doing the crucible quests already...Remember I was telling you about it. I'm on 6 kills with a Pulse Rifle now.

But yeah, I'm down to play, just text me or message me on XBL...Been stuck on this Fallout, I won't even lie.

You are almost done the quest line I think. Not too much more to do.
You only need to do 1 NF so we'll get to you when we find you

 

[zero23]

Also saw you can now earn past emotes from Nightfalls. Pretty damn awesome reward.

This right here is fantastic

Yup, I read that someone got the Carlton (Legendary) emote... That's super dope

Yea that's what I was referring to. I have been in DoD work since I got out of college, so I know all to well about how they try to acronym everything. I used to work for a company that used to mean something and then they changed the name a little bit but dropped the meaning. I remember going to trade shows and people asking what it stood for and when we would say nothing, they would give us the 

 look.
