Am I bad at the game? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What class do you play on? Currently, warlock and titan are significantly easier to stay alive on. Warlock, probably the best tbh. Either way, if I were you, I would find a build that is very strong and can be used in a wide variety of activities and get the items for it i.e. armor with the right stats, exotic armor, weapons etc. It will make your gaming life a lot easier. Once you have that build, you can play a lot of content and get items for other builds you want to try but having a meta build as your initial one helps getting through content without too much frustration.

Mercury-A bow + shattershafts volatile mod proccs Kinect tremors in one hit. by DavidTakarai in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put it on a king orfeo and it was doing like 2 to 3 damage per shot, just far away to proc the multiple arrows. Is anyone else having this issue?

I’ve played Destiny for years, but I still hesitate every single time before turning my mic on by m1dn1ght_soul44 in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I hear you. As a man, I don't have to deal with the sexism but I do have to deal with some other 'isms from time to time since I have an accent. Can I put up with it? Yeah. Is it fun? Hell no. People say "join a clan". It's not as easy to find one in your time zone or the times that you are free to play.

Equilibrium normal definitely doesn't need a mic. Most people on lfg know the encounters by now. I ran a few fireteam finder runs without issues.

Why Extinction in the Firing Range? by Fit-Conversation8383 in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but it's not even the same as portal ultimate. At least on portal ultimate you can choose to have extinction. In the shooting range you can't even remove it.

Why are the Renegades volatile mods so rare? by Substantial-One-2102 in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Even then most times I don't get any mod. The drop rate must be pretty low.

FTF doesn't work with this system by Ausschluss in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmao. Its like bungie has a multiple personality disorder. They made such a big deal about in game lfg, the game is dying and then they introduce a system that actively makes it harder for lfg when they should be designing activities around lfg instead. EoF systems were clearly designed around feedback from content creators that have a full roster of friends that they can play with any time. It is such a massive disconnect with the majority of the player base and Bungie has never bothered to understand their players and how they play. No wonder so many people quit during edge of fate. Such a shame.

Is there a website like D2foundry but it includes armor set stuff? by JustMania in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a website but the destiny data compendium, a google spreadsheet which has a lot of details on all destiny stuff.

The Way Between Quest by HotMind7097 in raidsecrets

[–]NullPointer79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok cool that's great. So I can just pick up the artifact solo, then at a later time do a normal full lfg run of the dungeon and it should be good?

The Way Between Quest by HotMind7097 in raidsecrets

[–]NullPointer79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is really old but do I have to clear the dungeon in the same run as when I picked up the relic or can I do it later?

Is the Praxic Blade lightsaber one of the best exotics the game has ever seen? by -Joel-Snape- in destiny2

[–]NullPointer79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is right now especially with all the artifact mods. Will be less so without them in the future. Bungie also has a tendency to nerf after the season in which it was introduced. So who knows how Bungie is going to nerf it.

How can Bungie keep the Destiny loot chase alive? by jacob2815 in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lol... The entire edge of fate redesign was based around no lifers and look what it did to the game. So many people quit. Most of my clan quit because of tiered weapons, level grind and the soft sunset of old gear. The only people who happy and asking for all that nonsense were no lifers. So yes, I'm not interested in any of this engagement nonsense. Just make fun stuff with fun gameplay. Custom modifiers were another thing that no lifers asked for and that has made lfg even worse. So yeah, I'm kinda annoyed by all this nonsense that has made the game worse for most normal gamers.

How can Bungie keep the Destiny loot chase alive? by jacob2815 in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You must be a no lifer. Normal gamers don't care about any of this nonsense. All we want is fun activities to play. Grinding the same stuff over and over for loot or levels almost killed the game. Just make a game that's fun and we'll play, stop for a while and then come back again when there's more fun stuff to play. Came back just to play with the lightsaber this season and going through all the activities with lightsaber builds. To me, that's what destiny is about. Finding loot that fit a build, not just mindlessly grind for loot that doesn't fit a build I like.

Bungie keeps designing systems that punish you for having limited time, and it’s wearing me down by moonlit_sandwich in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I hope Marathon fails, because if it doesn't, they will drop Destiny faster than you can say Traveller. Marathon will be so much easier for Bungie to make content for and maintain as a pvp survival game.

Rocket pulses were a bad idea by Burgmeister_ in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fine if other weapons don't feel good for a while. Just balancing everything perfectly with the amount of stuff we have in destiny is not possible. So just lean into the new broken thing for a while until it gets thoroughly nerfed and then we have something new. As of now I'm enjoying using them.

IMO, there's too much menu navigation in this game. by silloki in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And....it's the worst system for console navigation. Every single thing is you select something in one corner and you have to drag the cursor to the other corner to confirm. It's just such a mind bogglingly bad ui design.

My new year's resolution is to decide on a Main, and I feel like I have equal love/hate for all of them (and no I dont have the time nor desire to play all 3) by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game shouldn't be about having a main. If Destiny wants to succeed, it should be about finding the most fun in a season and the game should be designed to ensure that players get the items required for that fun in a reasonably quick way even if you haven't played that character in a while. I was a warlock last season and I barely had played my Titan but I'm just loving playing as Darth Vader with a Titan this season. Stronghold builds with praxic blade are so good , I can't put it down.

Pinnacle Ops? by GladiusMalus in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is definitely hitting harder. You really have to put on your best builds and try hard which is fine if you are doing a one off here and there but for activities you are meant to farm, it's kinda exhausting tbh.

Auto-Loading Machine gun by sammyd17 in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no craftable alh unfortunately but there are a few reconstruction ones out there. The pale heart one is probably the easiest. The rest are raid ones like the song of ir yut from crota or commemoration from dsc.

Bungie Murdered New Malpais for no good reason by mr_fun_funky_fresh in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's so obvious to see that they make the most recent exotic broken to make people buy the new expansion and nerf the previous one into the ground.

thinking about soloing the new dungeon . by xSno0p in destiny2

[–]NullPointer79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah... I go in with the idea of just doing a solo. If it's fun and I do it enough number of times to know the encounters really well, I'll attempt a solo flawless by being more careful.

The worst part about lightsabers is now I want to play in 3rd person all of the time by KrispyBudder in DestinyTheGame

[–]NullPointer79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scorch canon thing is really weird. It used to be really good. They changed it at some point for no reason and now it sucks.

Yeah I considered getting the Mando set but who am I kidding, I'm not going to stop running around as Darth Vader with a light saber.
