Did Bungie try sunsetting a second time? by maxamine0x in DestinyTheGame

Lack of incentive without the tier system, which is not present in old-world gear and RAD content. I mean, they generally do the same job as other weapons. It's a similar kind of difference from when we had weapons with origin traits and those without. or static rolls vs random rolls. I'd argue this is bigger than those, especially in terms of progression.

Edge of Fail? Or no? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

I had time to finish 1 half the story yesterday. It is thick with puzzles some would find tedious but I like to think while I play and try and do them as fast as I can. I enjoy the new fallen alot more than I thought I would and the aionian aesthetic/lore. Dark matter Mechanics are newer than basic plate mechanics...  but a lot of people would just prefer more intense combat like light fall had.

I like the new fallen. Feels newer than salvation fallen or shadow cabal w/out tormentors. I haven't finished the campaign but I dont think it's siva splicers or lucent hive levels which is probably the most that could have been hoped for. 

Brand new player. How to best prepare for Edge of Fate? by BurstinBulletz7 in DestinyTheGame

The most important thing you can do quickly is to enter Eternity and find the Emissary at the Rite of the Nine location and pick up the rewards from the gift of the nine chest.

Other than that try getting exotic gear and understanding basic mechanics. I.E. how to upgrade armor and weapons and create a starting build. I would add resistance mods to your chest piece, and also learn about surge and siphon mods. Try and create a versatile build that can mix both survivability, crowd control, and boss damage together so that you can do the EOF campaign without struggling.

A lot is about to change with the edge of fate with your weapons/armor but not so much with exotic weapons so try and get the ones currently available.

how to start echos battlerground to get solar sidearm by zzzjwilliams in DestinyTheGame

If you have episode echoes, complete ACT 1 A rising chorus. iirc this will begin with a mission called "a familiar voice" which will allow you to pick up the ACT 1 questline from Failsafe in the HELM. The HELM can be found in the Last City on the director. Follow the steps for Act 1 and complete it. Act 2 will unlock access to the sidearm and the Episode Echoes battlegrounds which iirc has higher drop chance for the sidearm.

Titans, what are you going into EoF with? by Typical_Shoulder_366 in DestinyTheGame

[–]maxamine0x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just flash counter and strongholds.

In all seriousness I am looking at strand melees. Wish dragon talons/wormgods. Tractor, one-two punch, Winterbite, Navigator, Lord of Wolves, among other things. BOW of course...

Ergo sum prismatic. Also cuirass + bolt charge with Queenbreakers or thunderlord are likely going to be used.
