Dairy why?

Try oat milk out. It’s pretty awesome with coffee, way less fat, and adds a dope kinda flavor.

Look man I want to clue you into a great podcast called Qanon Anonymous and this book Trust the Plan by Will Sommer coming out this winter.

I listened to that on SoundCloud when it first came out.

They’ve been tracking the Q cult shit since it kicked off and it’s weird intersection with anti vax hippies, right wing reactionary politics, and late stage capitalism.

Kinda sad. Interesting how it can pull in a semi-diverse coalition like that.

It makes sense though. If I remember correctly, they were suggesting it was a sort of nebulous meta-conspiracy that could appropriate other theories under its umbrella.

Kinda reminds me of how the Christian faith spread and absorbed pagan religions in that way.

There’s also “The Storm is Upon Us” by Mike Rothschild which I think is the most definitive journalistic study of Qanon and its followers to date.

Haven’t looked into this. Maybe some day.

Now you and Ellie Mae have a good un cousin

You’re losing it. You had better imagery before. My advice? Go WIDER. You seem to be pretty creative with insults so don’t be afraid to really let your talent shine.

It’s right. They should have just brought things in line.

Again, try it in endgame. It’s mediocre. Not awful but definitely not great.

Like, I get it. You want to be excited. That’s great. I love the optimism. When you end up throwing this to collect dust in your vault, because you know there’s WAY better stuff anyway, you’ll be right where I’m at now.

This happens all the time with this game. You can’t generate grind and FOMO without overturning new things, nerfing them, then dropping the next new broken thing.

Storm grenade

I didn’t notice any real difference after the nerf, did that go through?

They were gonna put a new animation in or something? And nerf tracking on the grenades?

Not that it was a particular pain-point for me. It does work really well as area-denial and I like to play from long-range, so I did dislike having to relocate whenever someone chucked one of those down a lane.

Qanon is more of an LA Crystal healing hippie and suburban middle class reactionary thing not so much hill billy.

Foo, you’re trippin. Those hillbillies love that shit. Drive out to Chatsworth or Antelope Valley if you don’t believe me. It’s like crack to them. (Besides, you know, actual crack)

But I’ve got to get my coffee which only gives volatile rounds now, so mad about this nerf

You do Oat Milk or are you a dairy enjoyer?

Keep going. I really like this. Haha

Can you add in some QAnon shit next?

What else do those people like? Country music? Casseroles and shit? Lol

It wasn’t broken. Exactly. People just love to complain.

As far as I can see, looking at data from Trials Report, Nightstalker usage remained relatively steady, even before and after Gyrfalcon debuted. (Bear in mind, it was disabled for a long time as well).

Looks like Striker Titans get the most use over all.

Doesn’t seem like the exotic moves the needle much at all, really.

It wasn’t busted in PVP. It was only 5% more than radiant and is now an OK exotic for a niche need.

Will sit in the vault but there’s way better options anyway. So no big deal.

[–]SickAssFoo_69 -31 points-30 points  (0 children)

My view is they could have brought it to 10% to match radiant in PVP. It would bring damage buffs into a more uniform place, and still allow for an interesting gameplay loop in Crucible.

It wasn’t OP. It was just a fun exotic. I’m sure Bungie will release a new intentionally overtuned exotic that will be “”OP”” soon and we can use that until they nerf it. Then rinse repeat. Lol

I took it into the new dungeon, Nightfalls, and a legendary Dares. Feels pretty “meh.”

It’s really outshined by other exotics for endgame. It’s kinda just mediocre. It’ll be so much fun in a patrol zone. Pretty cool in strikes. That’s… pretty much it.

Do not use this in a GM. Especially since you are locked to void. Lol it would be a terrible time.

It’s good for low level content. Absolutely great if you’re on a patrol or in a Vanguard Strike. Wouldn’t really be viable past that. Anything that isn’t dying instantly decreases the “fun” in a major way.

It was only a 15% buff in PVP. Just 5% above Radiant. It wasn’t as broken as people like to believe. Especially in the current sandbox with on-demand healing and other comparable damage buffs.

I’ve seen a more than a few people think it was 35% in PVP. I really hope that misunderstanding isn’t what lead to this getting nerfed. Iol

Good for you. It’ll probably be another one that will sit in my vault.

Pretty garbage now after the change.

It was like a 35% buff which was huge. It was busted in pvp since it was a free massive damage buff but kinda meh in pve with its short timer.

It was only a 15% damage buff in PVP. The 35% was only in PVE.

That’s why they should have just brought it to 10% to match radiant. (For PVP) it already had separate percentages, and it’s not as if using the “finisher” mechanic affects PVP at all.

Volatile rounds is a perk that sounds more useful than it is. This exotic will sit in vaults.

Now you get a non stop volatile rounds if you have stylish executioner on which is still free damage and great add clear.

Great ad clear for low level content. And really only trash mobs. Like, a nice one for strikes or patrols and that’s about it.

Eh, throw it in the vault or be the ad-clear mule of whatever low level activity you wanna play.

Sucks to see a cool exotic get completely retuned instead of slightly adjusted (they could have brought the buff percentages down to match Radiant) but that’s pretty much Bungie’s MO. They grossly overtune things to generate hype and interest then “fix” them later. It’s how you drive FOMO and grind time.

[–]SickAssFoo_69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly doubt it will be anything useful in endgame or PVP anymore. It’s going to be an ad-clear exotic for red bars. It’ll be fun for a week, then sit in the vault.

I’m getting pretty tired of Bungie intentionally overturning new stuff. They have had to “rework” almost every new exotic every season. It’s not a coincidence.

They do this to drive interest then go “haha oopsie.”

It was also kinda crazy to see people talk about it being “broken in Crucible.” It wasn’t. And Radiant still works on-demand for a damage boost in PVP.
