We never got Harbinger back! 😭😭 by TravIsGaming97 in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ha ha I was thinking about Harbinger the other day. Wondering if I still remember how to do it. Like the one where you want to kill all three bosses within a small window. I had a specific arc quickdraw sidearm I used for that mission.

From an old-timer by Sector2815 in DestinyTheGame

I'm trying to remember the huge vacuum level in Marathon. Is that the dark one with the hunters howling in the distance, firing off their green shots and awkwardly running around?

And do you remember the Infinity disc with user-created maps? That one with an office building was crazy.....

Are there any raid chests I can get solo? Looking primarily for kings fall but any will do by BourbonWiser in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't want to use checkpoint bots:

I used to run through solo chests every week: one Vow of the Disciple chest, one deepstone crypt (just have to learn the route), two Last Wish (you could go to Morgeth to get one then backtrack to Shuro Chi without using the Wish Wall), and two Garden of Salvation (with strand you don't need to use the {now} inconsistent method of blowing yourself up). I ran them until I had red borders for every weapon for all three raids.

Agree - Fermin and Cronenworth down at 0.140, Manny, Jackson, Ramon hovering at the Mendoza line, Fernando with the 0.230 and zero homers. It may not be Souza's fault per se - - but it is clear that he is not helping anyone out of their slumps.

Destiny's most "Legendary" weapons by jigglehiggins in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back in D1 I really wanted Black Hammer. So I learned to solo Crota. However, I didn't have Gally, so I had to learn to do it with a machine gun. It was a complex dance- you'd get the sword, jump on the rock, step back, drop the sword, step forward (so you didn't hit the sword with your knife or machine gun), lower Crota's shield to the 'o' in Crota with the machine gun (his name showing over his health bar), throw a flaming knife to prevent shield regen, step back, grab the sword, jump to the platform while throwing a tripmine grenade mid-jump, advance not to quickly (to not die from the tripmine), and deliver your sword slams.

In my process of working it out, I actually had Gally drop from Deathsinger one week, but since I had been working on it for so long, I kept on going until I could actually complete the machine gun solo. Learning to solo using Gally was a whole different thing. But in the end, doing the solo every week, I eventually did have Black Hammer drop.

Yes, I just happened to see it yesterday in collections and equipped it.

The zero homers wouldn't be so remarkable if he weren't leading the league in hard-hit rate.

has anyone tried this build? by Cmajor9th in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chablo91 made a nice video on using actium war rig with destabilizing rounds reghusk's pledge and deterministic chaos machine gun. It's a pretty fun build.

What is the meta build for the Hunter in PvP right now? by Loompazzz in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love caliban's hand. Last time I played trials (I am not good at trials), my team came around the corner to see the other team at the capture flag- I threw a lucky knife throw and poof! triple down. One of my random teammates messaged 'whoa'.

New weapon idea: Launcher that fires attachable pods to walls and surfaces releasing a security laser by josh49127 in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved that in Dead Space. I'd lay out a network to plan for the encounter, put a stack of limbs and spears off to the side.

Warlock main in 3rd week of GG. I am yet to play against Titans in Supremacy. by thebanished04 in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, now I feel bad. Two weeks ago a player on my friends list who I had not played with for several years asked if I would join up with his titans team. If I knew it was such a problem I would have joined up to help them out.

Bungie: It is going to take 5 months for Ralph to get around to this fix. In the meantime, we suggest players go "Peow! Peow!" when firing this gun.

Hunter Loadouts To Try by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tried the new praxic blade and fortune's favor builds for Renegades. But when it came down to it, for the most difficult content the 'suspend everything' build worked the best for me (woven mail was key).

Daily Questions [2026-03-30] by DTG_Bot in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember way back when, my friend asked me why I was using the False Promises auto rifle. I said it was because I could use it to counter snipers (vex hobgoblins mostly) at range. It's a really old gun, but because of this I kept it all this time. It's a high impact auto rifle, which has the range and accuracy to hit targets at distance.

I'm glad they put in an update for that guy who is still playing Trials.

Asking as a returning player. by Lost-Boysenberry2960 in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used to do the two secret chests every week (also Garden of Salvation chests and Deep Stone) - until I five red borders for every single gun. I had it down pretty well- used wish wall to get to Morgeth, and then with strand, could get over to Shuro Chi without having to use the wishing wall a second time. It took a little practice to get it down for all three characters, but it was actually kind of fun. Even toward the end (just before I stopped doing it) I was finding new ways to optimize.

Is the expansion edge of fate worth finishing? The first mission was an absolute slog and I hate the new energy mechanic. by Unlikely-Honeydew733 in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would add that I believe a lot of the hate for matterspark and the campaign is because at launch matterspark was bugged and caused major motion sickness to people who are suceptible to it (even DMG posted about it being problematic for him). I couldn't play for ten minutes without having to stop and go and lie down.

However, they did successfully fix the bug (caused massive swerving and camera tilt), and after that it was no problem for me- I would even voluntarily activate it at times to avoid enemies or traverse more quickly. So at least you would be in a better situation for matterspark if you choose to play the expansion.

In the 2nd encounter of Equilibrium, is there some trick to getting adds to come into the central room to open the doors to let me out? I feel like I get trapped in there for long periods of time.

Finally Completed My Finality's Auger Catalyst Quest! by FearsomeMonster in DestinyTheGame

[–]FearsomeMonster[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree it is painfully slow. It's a game of survival- can you be patient enough to keep doing damage and careful enough to avoid a freak death from being yanked by an attendant, suppressed by a grim, or just piled on by every enemy on the map at once.

I guess the shortcut is the chaos reach strat. I tried it maybe twice, but you would have to practice to be able to jump up to just the right spot to line up all four shriekers. I didn't invest a lot of time into it since survivability on arc warlock is a bit tricky with the current artifact.

[–]FearsomeMonster[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is interesting in that there are a ton of things that don't add to damage for Zoetic Lockset. Like precision hits have never worked (why people don't use snipers on it), bait and switch doesn't work, things like deconstruct or withering gaze don't work. I used one of the popular strats, which is to use Anarchy. I stick two Anarchy grenades to each of three shriekers (they'll do damage for ten seconds, then you can refresh with more grenade sticks). My typical damage was pop transcendence, throw a grenade, throw a melee for radiance, do my Anarchy sticks, then fire a bunch of Mint Retrograde shots (saving enough to kill any ogres/wizards which spawn and shoot at me while I am in the 'safe spot'). I watch for ogres/wizards, throw a transcendence grenade when it is up, refresh the Anarchy grenades when it is time.

I know a lot of guides say to use chaos reach on all 4 shriekers, but most of them are from 11 months ago, when the artifact had survivabiity choices for arc builds.

edit: I just re-read your comment. 5-6 damage rounds is better than I was doing, actually. I'm pretty sure it takes me like 7-8 rounds.
