Just a heads up, in the PS thread people said the 2.0 update to the PS4 is preventing people from playing online.

Basically no destiny today if you download the new update.

Imma wait on that download, hell today is reset Tuesday.

I feel your pain. It gave me 5 strange coins last week too

Of course the 2.0 is causing issues,smh. Sony needs to t their mess together in some of their areas and this is one of them.

 

[biggie62]

Also this week nightfall/weekly is the Nexus with nightfall having voidburn. There are exploit areas out there so look them up.

MANNNNNNN

think of it this way... next nightfall cant POSSIBLY be worse than phogoth

That was all I could think about. Next week will be better lmaooo

 

[biggie62]

Nexus isn't much better with void damage. That splash damage :x

Yeah it was a gooD run. Glad to see we could actually do some work and stand a chance. Just gotta get a solid fireteam with fully upgraded weapons. That damn Oracle lmao. We will try it again soon.

Stressing for Emphasis. This was lacking. Granted I need to be more careful at time

But we need everyone in the group to be carrying weapons that do 300 damage as their primary and secondary. The portal team needs rocket launchers that are preferably void and are at least 260+

Agreed. I hope I get some raid armor this week. If I can just get to 30...

 

[quad]

Im sorry guys, I lack void weapons ....All I got is the Epilogue (useless on hard mode) and the Corrective Measure heavy MG but it also lacking in impact, both are maxed tho. I ended up using the Ice Breaker and Thorn most of the time. I need the 77 Wizard void fusion rifle, and we all need the Gjallarhorn.

Also we can get raid armor on the normal setting, just not the helmet, and all raid armor has +30 light.

Using corrective measure is fine if it's fully maxed out. If you can mix that with my void Rocket we should be okay on the inside.

I also disagree with Tek about the Epilogue being useless on hard. No offense Tek, but your opinion about the Ice Breaker is also false. I still want to raid with you though , even with the difference of opinion. I was using it perfectly fine yesterday and had no problem in doing damage. There just needs to be more strategy amongst the people inside about how we go about with the minotaurs. Meaning, we focus on one at a time but if they are clustered we rocket them, grenades, and anything else that'll harm them and get them down ASAP.

 

[quad]

The Epilogue is not useless per se, but it does takes an entire clip to kill an oracle, also very hard to kill minotaurs with it, but this only apply to hard mode. There is a video a page or so back of a guy with a Hawkmoon killing minotaurs with one shot or two if it wasn't a critical hit.

Just in case someone else miss this, if you wanna play Destiny today considering its the reset, then I advise you to NOT update your PS4 to V2.0 ....at least not until they get the kinks out.

After you update to 2.0,

Turn off your PS4, and turn it on again. Keep doing this until you can see your recent activity..

Then you can play!

Hope it helps!

Nah the Epilogue is clutch when it's fully upgraded. I used a fully upgraded Epilogue last night. Ask 430AM how we did on the Minotaurs on the outside. We kept forgetting to shoot the oracles, but it was doing work. 

I just want to run it on hard so we dont have to run the raid twice for two drops. Might as well knock it out in one big swoop.

I'll be checking with my boy for another hard mode save point at Atheon tonight. I'll let y'all know. I'd much rather play the beginning of the raid on Hard Mode (Conflux/Oracles/Templar) I NEED Fatebringer.

Yep, sounds like the cheesegrater to me, we will find out tonite ....get the hard save Zero at Atheon, before we proceed with any VoG activities, we need to verify if the cheese is workin or not.

Raid

• Fixed an issue where Atheon was not choosing random targets for teleport through the timestream during the final encounter on the Vault of Glass
• Fixed an exploit where Atheon could be forced off his platform

Looks like it's time to legit beat Atheon. Shouldn't be bad on normal. I've done it twice legit on normal. It's not that bad. Hard mode though, damn.
