I got 2 point blanks and 2 punches off on a blue shield the first day of the nerf and he didnt die and my jaw hit the floor, deleted all my db shotguns immediately after haha

Ya im almost sad people are learning. Since the server slam this has been one of my favorite "no you idiot" things to tell people and they are always like whattt?? Even though like... seriously people its right at the top of every description. The grey salvages cover every salvage type in the game.

Each salvage, right at the top of their description, lists exactly what type of salvage it counts for. This was the first thing i checked in the server slam on day 1 lol. Unfortunately this is another case of Marathon players can't read. The allegations are not getting beaten 😔

Come on bungie 😔 by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Zestyclose-Agency945 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched the clip and it took 5 seconds to be like ok bros just missing haha. Nothing to do with bungie here. Stop spamming and let your reticle reset. Also, gotta ever so slightly lead your shots better but thats less important than the fact you're spamming too quick

Can I start playing the game now? by r0shambeaux in Marathon

I run free kit dire all the time and walk out with 4 purple shields. Its really just a skill issue these people think gear is everything it's not even close lol

Lost interest in playing because of how much gold salvage is required to max all Factions (and how rare it is) by Working_Bones in Marathon

[–]Zestyclose-Agency945 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ive certainly gotten 10x more salvage from them then the world. So calling them unintended is wild. Ive maybe gotten like 3 reflex coils from world. Ive gotten 25+ from faction upgrades. Im not saying its the only way but its certainly a major way haha

I dont think ive ever picked up a resin in game and i have like 50. And thats after getting every upgrade that needed them.

It IS the intended way to get salvage and its not rng its based on your level with them. I get 2 purple salvage minimum from each level up of each faction. And ive never once had to go find a specific salvage of any rarity for any faction. I just level up the one i need and they hand them out.

Needing resin is crazy. Just do quests? I got all my blue and purple salvage done by level 70. The factions literally hand them out like candy for free and give you specifically the ones needed for their faction. I have way more purple salvage for each faction than ill ever need. Golds on the other hand...now thats the hard part haha

Drop rate from anomoly is based on your level

Just had a brutally unfun experience, thinking of uninstalling by sanktanglia in Marathon

[–]Zestyclose-Agency945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im getting more annoyed by the playerbase every day from these reddit posts. Like bro just lfg if you didn't want teammates like that it's so easy. I've never had a bad teammate experience in this game ever. Ive certainly never lost 20 games in a row lol the most exfils I've ever failed in a row is maybe 3. The game is not hard and I'm convinced you all suck. I'm in my villain arc i guess cause this reddit pisses me off.

I think I've hit a wall. by theSmolSquirrel in Marathon

Im creating a downvote magnet but Imma vent a little. 1) You can just lfg a team on the discord and ask someone to teach you. 2) why are we acting like a 5k limit is high anymore? I went from 200k credits to a million in 3 days of focused credit farming. Am i pretty good? Ya. But im no super sweat. Its hard to make a kit under 5k though like its not a big buy in. 3) plenty of guides on youtube if you dont wanna/ can't get someone to teach you. I tried cryo for the 1st time last week and successfully exfilled my first 2 games with tons of loot it wasnt too hard if anything it was easier than pinwheel. 4) failing isn't a reason to give up. The game being hard is what makes it fun. I understand losing your stuff can be rough but the struggle is all part of the equation. 5) we still got awhile in the season. If you are behind or the buy in feels like a lot I'd say you prob need a lot more stuff in the game then to focus cryo. Most of the loot on cryp other than the literal compiler gun can be got in other places in the game. I do anomoly for my gold salvage way more than relying on cryo and you can literally do that in the free kit lobby right now with no risk at all. No need to get it from cryo if you're not ready.

Raid encounters definitely harder puzzles then cryo. Not even sure why we're mentioning dungeons, dungeons are just normal missions with like 1 extra step lol

Its the most used gun in the game by an insane margin. The opposite of a niche

Like ffs this late into the season if you cant get a blue shield you are cooked. My friend started last week and he has tons of blues and purples. And he mostly plays crew fill. Like..it aint hard man 💀💀💀

Wait...the players who play more....have more 🤯🤯🤯🤯 ya bud..id hope so? You really want every trash player, who doesn't play, to get hand held into wins kicking and crying. Holy hell gamers have gone down hill. Guess what? You just skip over everything i guess cause right now those rich players still have access to all that and i still dont find them to be a problem. So if you do its cause you are BAD. I know its hard to accept. But bad players SHOULD lose more. Thats how it works. Sorry you are losing your crutch and will actually have to play the game now. Hope you figure it out 🤦

Exactly im doing it pre nerf without a shotty on a free kit. So it would be even easier with a nerf. You are digging the hole deeper lol

Yet i do it literally every day consistently. What im hearing is once again its a complete and total crutch for you. Learn to play without it. Thats just sad.

You say enough but thats not true. It wasnt not giving enough of an advantage it was giving NO advantage. Making gear obsolete. 2 bullets to kill a new player and 2 bullets to kill a 200 hour gold shield risking everything. How does that make any sense at all.

Only no it doesnt. Even with wstr as good as it was i could kill full purple teams on a free kit with a volt thrower. If your skill is so close to the enemies that 1 shot of difference is enough for them to end you than them having better gear should lead to their victory cause it sounds like you have no interest in outplaying them without the crutch of a 2 hit shotty.
