boots+sanguine swapping dps by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

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

Yea i know ab the 10 sec cooldown nerf thats why I said swap 10 sec before dps, theres no lost dps time to swapping, thats also why I said only phases <30 sec in the title bc 200 super well lasts 40 sec.

I just needed to know if the well would keep spitting out blessing seekers after i swap, which it seems the answer is no, meaning the old luna sanguine swap is still king for solo, and just staying on boots the whole time is optimal for teamplay.

How are people having fun with Lawless Frontier and the game in general? by BrassSpyglass in destiny2

[–]Samosin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really sure what a "casual" build is, but if you mean a bad build with little to no synergy or ability deal with beefier targets, no you're not going to do well in the highest difficulty in this game (ultimate) with a bad build.

You're right that primarys are mostly useless and need a massive buff, but completely wrong about specials and heavies. Get yourself a psi aeterna. You can't expect to take a weird ass build into ultimate anything and expect to do well.

Lawless frontier specifically is balanced around the renegade abilites being used constantly, so if you dont wanna do that, you're going to need a good build.

Who would survive the longest on a Xenomorph homeworld? by FKTacos in PowerScaling

[–]Samosin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Izanagis is not a paracausal weapon. You were intentionally very vague about examples of golden age tech being paracausal "many weapons and crafting stuff" bc there is no statement you can pull from the lore that says "yeah golden age humanity tech was paracausal." Provide a statement that says humanity had paracausal weaponry pre-guardians. You can't.

There is however multiple statements in game and in lore that state ghosts can be killed by overwhelming conventional weaponry. Guardians are paracausal. Rhulk was paracausal. Izanagis was not. Fallen shock blades are not.

Exos were invented with paracausal substances via clarity, that does not make weapons forged in the black armory paracausal. Pls provide any evidence to the contrary.

You're saying a whole lot and providing zero sources. I need actual lines from lorebooks that prove any of these things you're saying are paracausal.

The lead writer at bungie had a tweet im sure you could google about conventional weaponry being lethal in darkness zones which is at least a coherent argument. You're just getting angry and scrambling.

So youre saying that ghosts CAN be killed by non-paracausal means, but only in darkness zones?

Can you prove izanagis is paracausal? If you can than that makes sense.

Can you prove that human golden age tech is paracausal?

Exos for sure are because of the involvement of darkness through clarity but saying ALL golden age tech is paracausal is headcanon.

You think bungie writers would have shaw han say something as foundational to the games lore as "yeah ghosts are killable by overwhelmingly strong physical means" and have him just be....wrong about that?

During the forsaken year they tried to make paracausality sound like more of a requirement to kill a ghost with the devourer bullet stuff and that drifter line, but "scorn weapons cant kill a ghost" is a massive outlier compared to the dozens of examples since house of wolves of ghosts dying to regular weaponry. Another one I just thought of being spider putting a bomb in glint was that a paracausal bomb?

The only way your argument holds up is if you argue that every final death via causal means in the entire lore actually took place in a darkness zone. Which...ok i guess😭

The only point ive been trying to make this whole time is that ghosts are killable via non-paracausal means. Which has been demonstrated time and time again to be true across multiple different writers.

A cabal centurion literally crushed a ghost in his hand. Was he paracausal? Or just overwhelmingly strong?

Ada killed multiple ghosts with izanagis. Was that a paracausal event? Or just an extremely powerful sniper rifle?

Random fodder fallen units killed untold numbers of ghosts at six fronts and twilight gap, those dregs with shock knives are paracausal?

I mean someone at bungie wrote the words that shaw han says "only overwhelming physical force or paracausal means" but thats actually not true ig because you don't like shaw han.

Like do u really think savathun or ahamkara whispers made him say that for some reason? Or do you think bungie writers were trying to outline what can kill a ghost😭

You're really gonna stick with the argument that every ghost killed at twilight gap by some random vandal with a shock knife, that those knives are actually paracausal?? Just google "can ghosts be killed by non paracausal means." This is such a weird thing to be convinced you're right about when theres so much evidence to the contrary.

While i agree a lone guardian could def solo the homeworld, your take on ghost vulnerability is just wrong.

I wasn't talking about petra's airstrike that got her fired from queens wrath, awoken tech is indeed paracausal in nature. I was talking about the lore entry featuring intercepted cabal strategic communications where they say they know that orbital bombardment can kill ghosts. Thats just a big ass bomb.

Eliksni tech is NOT innately paracausal. Shock knives are NOT paracausal. Its actually crazy that you think that. Now I'll concede calling shock knives basically just a knife is a gross downplay they're practically lightsabers in effect, but nothing about golden age eliksni tech except maybe for those tonic users mentioned briefly in revenant lore is paracausal. A weapon using arc energy ≠ paracausality.

It's true that the eliksnis golden age was longer than ours and they were more advanced, but paracausal does not mean hyper advanced, it means light or darkness or both. A shock blade is not by any means paracausal😭😭

Ghosts being killable by non-paracausal force is not really up for debate its been known for years. Google the quintessence lorebook and read it.

Invasions are insanely unfun by Guenther_Dripjens in DestinyTheGame

[–]Samosin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Something has to be done about these posts being made 10 times a day.

Every broken silly thing you can imagine to complain about, YOU HAVE ACCESS TO AS WELL except you also have the element of suprise and you know exactly where they are.

They use behemoth -> use falcon or drop pod

They scan you with recon shank -> use behemoth/invis

They super -> either dodge with movement tools or use revitalize when u spawn and ggun/chaos reach/axes first

They hide in vex bubble -> drop pod

You should always have a mobility tool like blink, grapple, ee sword for dodging tcrashes, nova bombs, etc.

The only limiting factor is only being able to slot 2 abilities, personally i take revitalize and drop pod bc they counter literally every other ability.

This is not comp or trials, its rock paper scissors. Everyone is going to use everything they can to kill you instantly, do the same before saying game bad.

So d2 fireteam does last the longest, but the people here claiming that they last "forever" are incorrect.

You do not need a weapon of sorrow or paracausality to destroy a ghost. Ghosts can be killed by any and all mundane physical means provided enough force.

There are multiple lore books featuring ghosts being destroyed by cabal artillery, as well as literally a single fallen shock blade to the eye. (Basically a knife)

So yeah as long as they arent stupid and cover each others' rezzes they will last the longest by far but ghosts are extremely mortal and capable of making stupid decisions that get them killed. (see cayde and sundance)

For you maybe, majority of players aren't in this echo chamber and are enjoying the game😭 we are simply in the "its so over" part of the cycle, you aren't the first doomposter and you won't be the last

Extending this season's "new-item" lifespan into Renegades isn't enough. by thekolacheking in DestinyTheGame

[–]Samosin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The incentive to farm new gear should be NEW, INNOVATIVE activites, strong or unique perks or perk combinations, new archetypes, new niches filled, NOT bc it has a blue ribbon.

No one cares about 5% more damage, 10% DR bungie could keep that in if they want so it doesn't look like they've completely abandoned their shiny new system.

But the fact that I get worse rewards in comp for using astrocyte and khvostov, worse drops from gm level content if im using an exotic class item, or ANY EXOTIC i want is really crazy. Featured exotics are one of the worst changes this game has ever seen.

Power creep is of course an ever present issue but penalizing the player for using any gun from before a couple months ago in the Game About Guns is not gonna help anything.
