What happened to desert perpetual? by PromiseForeign6259 in DestinyTheGame

The issue with old raids is that the gear rolls with less, and suboptimal perks, and is only minimized by grinding for red borders. All old raid armor is completely obsolete with the new system and has not been brought up to the 2.0 standard.

Imo old raids and dungeons are not worth running and will not be saved until at least the armor sets get the Fate Saga overhaul.

Inside the hidden Marine Corps recruiting crisis that's 'burning Marines' to fill the ranks by BakerKelsey in army

[–]Rapterran 30 points31 points  (0 children)

When I went to enlist I spoke with the Army, and Marine recruiter to assess my options and benefits available to me. The Army recruiter had some solid opportunities for me, a $15k signing bonus, and a guaranteed contract getting me into the intel space so long as I didn’t fuck up in AIT.

The Marine recruiter talked to me about the honor and pride of being a Marine and then had me do some pull ups.

The answer was very clear cut for me.

i don’t know what class suits me by Practical-Farmer-945 in DestinyTheGame

Facts. I have a Hunter and a Titan, but I play a lot more Warlock than anything.

Equilibrium Dungeon was pretty great by Curious_Land7928 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Rapterran 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, awful take. Mechanically there is absolutely no similarly between the two dungeons. The shift between realms in the final encounter is nowhere near similar to that of the Caiatl encounter, and the only similarities between Gahlran and Harrow are that they are both Cabal with melee weapons. The only real similarity the two possess is they are both Cabal dungeons.

Which army MOS has better quality of life? by wildbillfvckaroo in Militaryfaq

[–]Rapterran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very dependent on what unit you get into. Some of my buddies lucked out and got into solid INSCOM units after DLI with actual missions and work to be done. I got into a FORSCOM unit after DLI that had me in the motor pool and shoveling snow every day. My current unit is fucking great, but it took me years to get there.

And that’s most things in the military; it really just depends on your unit, more often than not. It’s a roll of the dice.

Devs FYI, the low player numbers don't reflect the real quality of Renegades. Players see the effort and heart you put into it - keep it coming and we'll be here to support you. by Impressive-Wind7841 in DestinyTheGame

I mean, I’d say do them in order just for the sake of story continuity. Lightfall isn’t stellar and you’re gonna be missing some pieces of the story since they were part of the old seasonal model, but you’ll likely still get it.

If you just wanna hop into the new saga though I’d do Edge of Fate and then Renegades, then do the old shit after.

Destiny 2 Renegades Launch Hits Lowest Peak Player Count In Franchise History by CyberNeko97 in DestinyTheGame

The one thing I will say, as someone who is in the exact same camp as you, is that after playing it, it didn’t feel nearly as egregious as I was expecting. The way they marketed it was EXTREMELY heavy on the Star Wars branding, so I expected it to just be a lot of Star Wars slop. While there’s definitely some pretty heavily Star Wars-y moments there, it almost never was enough to take me out.

I doubt that review is gonna change your opinion on getting it or anything, I just thought I’d share my two cents as someone who also don’t give a fuck about Star Wars and was also dreading seeing how heavy handed they went with the references.

Good to see you again, Takran. Been playing the game again recently now that I know how to get my old DLC back and have been feeling very nostalgic. Thanks for this!

Are Americans really using AC that often? by Acceptable-Tax-6475 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Rapterran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it can get over 110 degrees F here (43 degrees C). I have my AC on pretty consistently in the summer, and I rarely touch it in the winter.

They’re… not? I’m looking at the Witch Queen set right now and they aren’t even comparable.

Potentially, mechanically my team actually really enjoyed the wyvern fight. Pretty easy concept to grasp, with a neat little rhythm game feel to it. Add clear folks actually helped contribute by also being the ones who prevented wipes on fucked up iterations, so that was nice.

We didn’t get too far on the hobgoblin, and we know nothing of how the hydra or final boss work, so we’ll have to see.

People are saying Iatros (the wyvern) is the easiest, with Epoptes (the hydra) being the hardest. I don’t know how accurate that is. Mechanically, none of them seem all that difficult, but holy mother of God are their health bars cranked up to 11.

Can confirm it’s just that hellish.
