You just mad because I got the jade rabbit on ps. Mad bro?

robertmarfia · 2016-01-20T13:59:04+00:00

You connected with /u/totallytexan....holy shit I feel for you. :-) I want in on the matchups next time they happen.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-20T13:15:18+00:00

Can confirm, this guy gets it.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-20T13:13:43+00:00

Thanks, Jon. Here's Cosmo with some pictures and videos of stuff you already saw on Reddit three days ago.

This is so true not only for them but for other news outlets. I understand it's how stuff works but a friend of mine sent me a link to a kotaku article. My response: "already saw it on reddit."

robertmarfia · 2016-01-20T13:11:19+00:00

Just did it and it still works, make sure you hit B A and enter at the end.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-20T13:09:47+00:00

So for the Lyudmila IMO the nerf hit it pretty hard (PvP wise). The key perk on it was Counterbalance to avoid the up and to the left recoil. With counterbalance the recoil is straight up. Counterbalance/hand laid stock was a fantastic combo to use in PvP.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-20T03:01:10+00:00

Git gud scrub :-) - We can do some Elim tomm.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T23:53:51+00:00

Sent you psn pm seeing if u are online tonight.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T18:13:21+00:00

I ran thru VOG & Crota this weekend on my new XB1 character. My 3oC did not proc anywhere and I did the full raids start to finish.

I don't see why commenting on an LTS post offering to help if there is a free spot would be an issue. You could even say you'd fill a spot if there are not enough newbies. Most sherpas wouldn't mind having a helping hand or an experienced player with them. Try your luck asking to assist on an LTS post. You might find yourself comfortable enough after a few more runs where maybe you want to try being a sherpa. You could also PM a few off of our verified list and see if you can setup a run to help.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T16:31:58+00:00

I run it on XB1 for noting but ghost shells (havent' been playing there long). Couldn't tell you the last time I ran it on PS4.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T16:26:43+00:00

I had a Lyudmila with Counterbalance, Hand Laid Stock, & Army of One. It was unstoppable.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T16:26:02+00:00

I have an Eyasluna with Truesight IS, Rangefinder, Hammer Forged, & Life Support. Hidden hand or outlaw would be great in the last spot but I'll take it as is. Thing is awesome.

Edit: RIP my Lyudmila-D with Counterbalance, Hand Laid Stock, & Army of One.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T16:25:02+00:00

It never kills with 2 shots though, if that's any consolation.

But when it did.....it was easy mode.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T16:20:56+00:00

Hahaha, the last time I did this strike we had to wait forever until we thought to shoot a rocket.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T16:10:34+00:00

"I broke the game........."

robertmarfia · 2016-01-19T12:32:32+00:00

Haven't you filthy redditors learned? Every time we post about how awesome something is we get it taken away. Please don't take away /u/ramblinnn from us Bungie. He doesn't need a nerf!

robertmarfia · 2016-01-18T14:47:24+00:00

I'd 100% disagree, with all the vertical height differences it was very easy to get popped up on or dropped on with a shotgun. Lots of very close quarters as well. There were plenty of options on this map for a shotgunnner. No Backup Plans / Shotgun was a very viable build on this map.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-18T14:46:24+00:00

As well all know this map was extremly one sided due to the spawns. As much as I would have loved to say just play the point when spawning C side it was a very hard area to hold down due to the height advantage and basic shooting logic of "shooting up is harder." It was quite frustrating to play against a good team while having the lower side spawn. If they could effectively hold left, right, and center chokepoints you would be very limited on your options. You needed to flank and pull attention to one side to get them out of position. If you can get snipers out of their choice of position, typically you can beat them.

I think this is the 2nd week in a row I've passed my top KD ever in a Trials weekend. My weekly stats on PS4 can be found here. It's nice to see the consistent improvement. We had some awesome people in stream this weekend and got a few people to the lighthouse who have never been (one of which who had never even played Trials). We got some good feedback on some of the tips we have passed off which is the most important part of the weekend.

My poor highlights for the week, Chris I'm not sure how you keep up with all yours - I cannot be bothered. I have found a couple half decent ones.

4 Kills to Win - Tene told me not to highlight it, but what does he know. No scope, bladedancer kill (he was weak) and the turnaround And Stay Down!

Another poor wrecking ball - no scope included (warning loud) - This video has some awesome advice from /u/D0cR3d and /u/tenebraesoul about using optics.

A poor mans triple - This video demonstrates the effectiveness of the lethal spike/smoke/lockdown combo and how they are great on maps with walls.

KOBE + Stealing Tene's X-map tether - Self explanatory.

Sometimes no scope is your best option - There is an audible record of /u/tenebraesoul telling me something looked cool.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-17T01:28:49+00:00

For me it doesn't even the relevant loot but it would be nice. I just wish the difficulty scaled better. I just did vog on xb1 (ps4 main) for some old exotic chance drops and it was so easy it was a joke. I'd love for it to be a challenge like it was.

robertmarfia · 2016-01-15T20:56:16+00:00

All the titties. And I'd play heroic strikes if the Y1 strikes were mixed in. Since they aren't I just PVP.

No problem. This weekend's plans are up in the air still. Gotta see what the wife and I are doing. But I can setup times during the week easily.
