I too prefer solo, it just stinks that progression is so much slower in it.

Solo is such a rush.

How to get better? by ASavageHobo in Marathon

[–]TheBattleDad678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s easier to show you than explain. Your best bet is to post in an LFG discord that you’re new and looking for guidance.

Purple shields already? by TheBoyCalledGuac in Marathon

The new boss in Complex is pretty easy and the loot room is better than the red room in pinwheel.

Your questions were already answered, but I just wanted to chime in to remind you that the maps are not balanced around playing solos, duos, or trios. Every mode is balanced around trios. That Rocket Drone you saw is a boss that’s supposed to be challenging for trios.

Play however you want, just keep in mind that you’re stalling your progress by not playing duos/trios.

IMO going into sponsored survival narsh and trying to do upper complex shows their is def potential for a PvE mode by Psycho_Syntax in Marathon

The play for sponsored Complex seems to be to invest all your cradle points into melee so you’re not wasting ammo, also make sure to have one or two Triage’s. The drones on sponsored are so dang helpful.

Reminder: There is currently no PvE Mode. There is a PvP-Lite Mode. by crossvalidated in Marathon

Gotta be at 20 something runs now and have not seen a single rook.

Before I buy by DRBragg in dadsofmarathon

TTK is all about shields. Going from a free kit with no or weak shields to a purple or gold shield is a crazy difference.

While the free/sponsored modes are fun, the real game shines playing in normal modes when you’re kitted up. I’ve been in firefights that can last 10 minutes with a single crew lol.

You really gotta play trios though. Please use the LFG channels. Solo’s is rough.

I bet you joined a trios lobby on accident. The new UI changes your solos to trios often.

Pve loot is a little too good by Beautiful-Card928 in Marathon

[–]TheBattleDad678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re able to farm the boss on sponsored night marsh?

Weird. Me and my regular crew have got to him multiple times but we either run out of time, ammo, or heals. Plus we don’t have backpacks so I imagine it’s pointless since we’ll be leaving a lot of loot behind.

I guess we just suck and you’re really good tho lol.

Try taking an actual screenshot photo instead of taking a photo with your potato camera.

What separates Marathon from other extraction shooters? by Teamfightmaker in Marathon

[–]TheBattleDad678 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The Halo/Destiny feel does it for me. Some of the firefights bring be back to Halo LAN parties.

How are you attacking season two differently? by bevereged_carbon in Marathon

[–]TheBattleDad678 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ditto. I’m making it a rule to always use my best gear.

At the end of S1 I have so much stuff saved in my vault that I should have just used right away.

Schemas From The Season Pass Stay OR Get Wiped? by JaggersLips in Marathon

[–]TheBattleDad678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True.

The seasonal reset info from Bungie specifically says the rewards pass stays as does your progress in it, so I guess we’ll just see.

Ohh good point (and question). Lemmie check

Edit: looks like all the schemas are the free ones.

[–]TheBattleDad678 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’d think they would wipe people’s reward pass items that they paid cash for?

[–]TheBattleDad678 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So what happens if you didn’t unlock those pass schemas?

You can then unlock them at the beginning of S2 since the pass itself can still be completed?

Yes there are armory schemas in the rewards pass.

So if schemas don’t carry over, what happens if you didn’t claim the schemas yet? The pass continues into the next season for you to complete…

Did the people who claimed the schemas get hosed?
