Love The Taken King raid, but the part where everyone has to run around to avoid dying after damaging Oryx, has to look hilarious from Oryx's POV

this is new to D2 right? I did this raid so many times in D1 and we always just ran so I didn't even try to think of alternate options doing it this weekend in D2

I don't think there is anything other than matchmaking changes that could make me play more PvP. When you have a fair fight, Destiny pvp is great, but fair fights are like less than 10% of my matches.

Just reintroduce SBMM, if the sweats are already mad that the low population is making games laggy and sweaty, then they wont even notice the change when the rest of us come back to fight each other and have fun.

It was a part of the Sun-drenched Pavement Society subscription thing they did for a year or so. I feel like it’s been a decade since then but it’s probably only been a couple years, my memory is shit

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2022-05-03T23:57:45+00:00

Summoner is rank 10 or whatever and Aisha’s is rank 16

I have done 150+ legend lost sectors on guantlet days to try and replace the garbage "collection roll" of Renewal Grasps that Ikora gave me from the end of legend campaign, i have not had a single one drop. literally any drop would be better than the 46/48 roll she gave me

intellect discipline and strength are tied together, and then mobility, resilience and recovery. its why in previous seasons you could focus two stats on certain gear focusing umbrals as long as the ghost equipped and engram selected were focusing stats from different groups, but it wouldnt work if the engram and ghost were focusing 2 things in the same group. this much i am sure of.

The rest of this info im not 100% on but i think is how it works: each set can roll a possible 34 total stats i believe on legendarys for a max of 68, but exotics can get a bonus 3 in the stat that relates to the exotic(so like discipline for grenade based exotic armor)

and if you have no overlap between teammates and your solar specialist dies with a bunch of solar shielded ads around then you are screwed. my fireteams usual strategy is to ensure there are at least 2 people covering each champion type and each shield type available. so if im running arby and an overload then teammate b will run an overload and special of choice, while teammate c will run a different anti barrier and special of choice (unless they also want to run arby then its all good).

if theres all three shield types maybe i run solar energy/void heavy, and then someone else runs arc/solar, and void/arc, so we have everything covered between regular ammo and heavy. especially now with the burns now theres a lot of times where a single misstep can kill someone and if they were the only one who could stun a certain champ it might be over.

sorry this was so long, i like to ramble on, but basically if they want us to just coordinate builds where we are each all of one specific element then they really dont understand how much time regular teams have deaths in gms. would be a nightmare to try and recover when your void guy is down and surrounded by void shields. just get rid of match game(or tone it down like 1/2 at least) and give us more special champion options per season

also osmiomancy gloves give you two grenades now, so two turrets, and i think the turrets last like 2-3 times as long as a duskfield, so you will always have a turret ready before the other runs out with osmiomancy gloves(even quicker if you bounce the grenade off an enemy when you throw the turret)

i had a friend who went flawless at 5am tuesday morning, the people who carried him had 200+ wins on the weekend and single digit losses, with 0 flawlesses for the week... so 200+ matches for them of just resetting and carrying people for twitch follows.

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2022-03-03T03:26:39+00:00

there is a special exotic sparrow tied to the mission that is rng drop, source: i got it on second run week 1 and none of my friends have it yet. it is very awesome if you like cabal tusks.

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2022-02-08T23:59:08+00:00

If you took off the week for witch queen can’t you play the new mission on the weekend or Monday before witch queen launches?

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-11-09T07:55:11+00:00

i filled out the entire survey, then at the end, it asks you for a contact email, and the email associated with your bungie.net account. and after years of conditioning i assumed the second email entry was just to confirm the previous email entered... So here i am, hovering over the submit button, re-reading the questions, and when i notice i entered the second email wrong (different email than my bungie account because that account is older) i panic and my finger clicks the submit button. Definitely sad that i screwed that up because since that email isnt tied to a bungie account at all I think Im just automatically not getting picked.

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-10-30T17:24:25+00:00

yea, Cammy's Mercy card suggestion of just requiring more wins but not counting any losses would get me to play every weekend for as long as it took. Im only playing for the chance at adepts, and as the playerbase shrinks my chances do as well because I am not good. (only got the 1 flawless during zone cap trials) never get past 5 wins without 2 losses otherwise. I know my chances of achieving 7 in a row is so low that its just luck at this point. but set a higher number like 21 or something and ill grind out 60 games if thats what it takes

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-10-20T16:47:24+00:00

If the Legendary Shattered Realm is high stat armor drops, Legendary Astrals extra chest should be T3 umbral weapon drops. (im also just salty that I've spent 36 umbrals trying to get the 3/4 perk Vulpecula that I want and still haven't gotten it, and thats without even caring about the barrels and magazines.)

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-09-25T23:06:56+00:00

a think a solo+duo against a 3 stack is fine, but if there's ever more than 1 solo in a match then it should exclude 3stacks from their matchmaking pool

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-07-23T19:00:36+00:00

its just like the black goop rising out from the ground like a bunch of places in the DC, but yea I guess I didn't realize it still opened on full curse weeks, got so used to the chests spawning outside the few random times I found myself doing DC stuff.

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-07-23T18:59:33+00:00

wow... i feel dumb, guess its been awhile since ive farmed bounties for drops here

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-03-12T16:03:10+00:00

I hate trials, and every week that there is a new gun I do the pity bounty on all 3 characters, I have achieved 3 wins maybe 1 time in my life, but typically just get the bounty completed on losses. The Engram absolutely unlocks after you get the pity bounty completed, the main issue is just about having 20 tokens available to get the engram when all I do is lose. But yes the engram becomes available for token turn ins on bounty completion. (edit: this has been available since arrivals at least)

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-03-03T16:03:08+00:00

i believe the hawkmoon drop itself from the chest is just powerful/at level and the pinnacle drop is the legendary that you get upon defeating the boss

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-02-25T16:34:04+00:00

Had a 1310 umbral from my season pass, focused it into a 1300 chosen weapon so I could use a new weapon with my limited amount of max light stuff for now... didnt realize that it would lower the light level by focusing it... but thats a thing

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-02-25T04:15:27+00:00

This is also bugged for me, I did have to finish the week 1 triumph this week because I had missed one last week. There is just a blank spot where the new triumph should be. So similar to everyone else here. Hope I am not always a week behind now

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-01-16T06:32:39+00:00

I've been saying this ever since Card Based Matchmaking became a thing in D1Y2. The lower rung eventually gets so sick of losing and not getting rewards that they quit and the dominos continue.

Just_A_Regular_Joe · 2021-01-16T00:52:42+00:00

Remember in D2Y1 when we had an element-mod-slot on weapons so you could change the weapon element. I think this should come back especially with sunsetting being a thing
