I believe exotics will be upgradable because Bungie has been very careful to, multiple times, say that legendary weapons/armor specifically will not be ascended. If it was exotics too wouldn't they simply say all year 1 gear is being left behind instead of singling out legendaries?

It won't be obsolete, just a bit less OP than it has been (I'm betting it will still be the best, or on par with the best rocket launchers). They haven't come out and said it yet, I don't think, but exotics will have an upgrade path for TK, just legendaries are getting left behind.

Prison probably won't change anything for you. If you have VoG and CE guns pretty much everything in the Prison is a downgrade. The Prison armor will get you to 34 quickly but all the perks only work in the Prison. Better off just ascending VoG or CE gear for perks that help in more/all pve...

As long as you use the same PSN login, characters transfer from PS3 to PS4 and vice versa.

Decided to finally try some PVP. Got a perfect roll on Ash Factory and Her Courtesy, and needed to do some bounties for xp to level them up. DO rank up and what did I finally get? Revenant! As for Thirn glitches, I have heard of two, but think they were both debunked. Haven't tried them...

That is exactly what POE should have been! Instead we got a 'random' arena that wasn't actually random. It has the same mob's and modifiers for each mob/objective type every.single.week. So much lost potential there.

Yes there are a bunch of new zones on the Dreadnaught ship, including a new patrol zone and raid. I think they even said there will be a patrol zone for end game players that has special loot and challenging enemies (no more just jumping on your sparrow and flying all over the patrol with...

Yeah. it sounds like just legendary stuff will be left behind. Exotics should have a way to upgrade, or at least be used in some way to reach Taken King tier. But left behind is a strong way to put it. It's not like they will vanish the day TK drops. Heck, I used my 300 fatebringer through...

I don't really know what an AC router is, and I doubt I need to spend money on something like that if it's for more bandwidth. Playing the PS4 online, while my wife watches netflix on the laptop, is about as intensive as we get with our wifi. Something relatively cheap, but reliable with...

Getting a new/better internet service provider next week (hooray for fiber) and figure it's a good time to upgrade my 8 year old linksys wifi router. Any recommendations? Want to spend less than $100. House is 2 story 2000 sq feet, so don't need huge range, I don't think. Have PS4, 2 laptops...

I still want to know what was up with Xur not selling a weapon last week. I think they goofed and put the gjallarhorn on Xur after announcing the upcoming weapon rebalancing, when they meant to wait and put it on Xur following the actual patch, not the announcement. They paniked and tried to...

I'll be on for Taken King, Noble. Still play an hour or so just about every day.

I knew gjallarhorn nerf had to come eventually, but icebreaker and blackhammer too? Come on. If you haven't read it yet, IB now has an 8 second recharge per shot instead of 5, and blackhammer white nail perk pulls ammo from reserve instead of being unlimited.

40 minutes? damn man, I'm jealous. My fastest run (of the whole 2 times I've bothered to complete POE 35) from round 1 to dead Skolas was 1 hour 48 minutes and we only had to start over on a round once and Skolas twice.

Unfortunately they have to not allow ascending (other than exotics probably) or taken king will be as irrelevant as HoW. VoC and Fatebringer are all you need.

What a letdown for Bungie Day. I already had the emblem completed so didn't even have to log in, and we can't claim the reward for 2 more months. PSN has been down all day so couldn't log in even if i wanted to. Would have much preferred some rare drop fluff items that we'd have to hunt down.

Bought the digital version for PS4 and am loving it so far. Still level 1, but have stumbled across 3 or 4 stones of power. Are there specific skills I should focus on spending points on first, or does it not matter? Also, can I respec later?

I'm torn on which version of Witcher 3 to buy. PS4 or PC. PC version would be on a laptop below minimum specs, but it sounds like I can play it on lower settings. PS4 version speaks for itself. I'm leaning towards the PS4, but not being able to mod things like max weight and durability make...

New modifier combinations. Oh great, lightswitch and trickle on skolas will be so much fun...

Is the ship not guaranteed? Beat skolas today and got elder cypher x2 from him and emblem and shader from big chest.

Yeah we set up behind the rock by the cliff. Skolas can't hit you ever. Just watch adds. I was running the exact loadout you described, fully ascended voc, bh, ghorn. Good call on the bubble for round 4. We had a titan with us but he didn't have a saint 14 so didn't want to drop his bible...

Man, the 35 POE is exactly what I was afraid it was going to be. Took 2+ hours to get to Skolas, and we tried him for about another 2 hours, then had to call it a night and now I'll have to start back at square one next time. Ugh! (and for me that's a lot. I usually can squeeze in 2 hours a...

Any of you guys going to be on in the next little bit? Looking to give the 35 poe a whirl

Mostly great changes in the patch. I did love sparrow racing though. What are the details on the red bull promo? Bonus xp now sounds nice. Too bad i don't drink the stuff.

Congrats man. It will make your life so much easier, especially in PoE.

Thanks Spronk. I loathe PVP, so I won't bother ascending with that in mind. I do want to try ToO eventually, but am in no hurry to see how impossible it will be for me to get to Mercury. From what I've heard about PoE 35, I really don't want to do it. It sounds like HM Crota x10, which I...

Which weapon did you ascend first? I've heard a lot of people say they did Fatebringer or VoC first. I am very tempted to do so, but honestly, in PoE I use Fang of Ir Yut often and am considering ascending that first. Am I crazy?

Felt like burning a weapon and armor core and taking a chance with Verik on his Judgement's chance. Was hoping for some good armor piece he's never sold before. Ended up getting Wolves Leash (scout rifle). I don't get why Verik's weapons are kinetic, and unless I'm reading it wrong, I can't...

Word of advice: Don' be an idiot like me and finish the 34 PoE with a full bounty list. I probably just wasted getting the exotic bounty, but I guess I'll never know.

Looking forward to maybe doing Skolas for the first time this week. 4th horseman is ready!

Yeah I heard the same thing. Guaranteed week 1, about 50/50 every weekly reset after that. I dunno how I feel about that. With how rare the treasure keys are, or grindy to get them, they should have a very high chance in that PoE chest that requires the key, especially considering you have a...

Am I missing something here, or is there really no reason to worry about getting HoW end game weapons? With the ability to ascend all of our VoG and CE weapons, and the reroll ability of all HoW legendary weapons, do we need anything else really? For example, Verik is selling an AR for a...

Did my first 34 poe. Man that boss was tough (did it with 3 33 warlocks). Don't think I'll have time to try the 35 version before reset. Hopefully some of you guys will be on for this coming week's poe cycle.

ok, so the first key use for week is queen weapon + exotic, and after that you still get weapons? Sounds good! Thanks edit: just did nightfall on my 3rd character and got my first etheric light. Gotta figure out which armor slot to upgrade first

In PoE, once I've used a treasure key and gotten the big chest, is there any reason to use a key on the chest again before reset if I do poe again on a different dofficulty? Also, does it matter which difficulty I use the treasure key on? (ie if I use the key on the 28 chest, are the rewards...

Sounds like the best weapons are locked behind pvp this expansion. If you go a perfect 9-0 in ToO, you get access to a social space on mercury that has a chest with exotics, exotic emblem, motes, and most importantly, the elemental legendary HoW weapons. I'm terrible at pvp and have...

Talking about wolf hunting? Try Skywatch. Always lots of people there. The event spawns every 8 minutes, and you can get the chest at least 2 or 3 times in any location, sometimes 4 if you are fast.

DIM is awesome for managing gear. I recommend it highly as well. 7pm can not get here fast enough. I want to play me some HoW!

Just spent an hour farming chests in Skywatch. Got 2 more keys and 2 legendary engrams (heavy and chest). I recommend the Skywatch wolf event if you want quick farming. The event is every 8 minutes and the chest locs are mostly all near zonelines so you can loot them at least 2 or 3 times each.

Finished all 6 queen bounties on all 3 characters. Have done a total of 24 wolf events with probably 40-45 total chest openings. Tons of blue engrams, 0 legendary engrams, 1 treasure key. So ready for Tuesday!
