    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I believe you don't see etheric light as a mat for exotic upgrades because exotic upgrades only cost an exotic shard and some weapon parts. 365 gjallarhorns and icebreakers day 1!

    Well this is fun. Home from work and ready to get a taste of the HoW changes but the same idiots who killed PSN for 4 days at Christmas are doing it again.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I dismantled my shadow price half way through TDB. Some stuff in the patch is funky. Some crucible stuff that shouldn't drop until tuesday is, and some things like speaker exchanges, no more shards/energies from packages, and no more accomodations are missing but should have gone live today.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I'm hoping at least a few months. Definitely longer than TDB since the end-game event at least has rotating modifiers and arenas so even if you get every armor drop and weapon you can at least still do something "fresh". On a side note, the big 1.2 patch is supposed to be deployed this...

    Witcher 3

    Reviews sound fantastic. The exploration and 'named' monster hunting is mentioned as a huge plus...my favorite thing about RPGs. My only question though is what about the no monster level scaling vs. loot scaling? We debated it here a bit, but I can't find a single review that even mentions...

    Watching the stream made me feel good, in a weird way. Someone (or 3 someones) out there is as bad at PVE as I am at PVP.

    Maybe it's just this low quality stream, but wow that Jamie Fox anthem was brutal.

    From what it sounds like, you can upgrade every legendary and exotic in the game to 365 damage or 34 armor, so I'd assume that includes IB. The only thing limited to HoW gear only is the rerolling (reforging) weapon perks.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    But you can revive teammates right? So it doesn't really matter, unless your revive happens when the rest of your team is already dead.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I think the reforge is only for HoW purple gear/weapons. No exotics, no drops from previous xpac, or vanilla.

    Insurgent

    I read the trilogy too, and if the 2nd movie was bad, the 3rd is probably going to be atrocious (the 3rd book certainly was). Completely different writing style for book 3, Four became a whiny bitch teenager (he was so bad that I often had to flip back to the chapter title to see which...

    The change to Archeon Priest waves was unintentional, apparently. Upgrade old raid gear? I guess that's what I get fop dismantling the VoG gear I had accumulated before CE came out.

    Witcher 3

    I agree Ritley. Rebalancing gear right before gold is just begging to be broken and in need of an early patch. I also don't really like the idea of gear scaling down. If I kill some rare badass monster I want his badass loot, not a lesser version of it. Not sure how this game works, but if...

    Classic games you loved and why. (Nostalgia thread)

    Obligatory FF3 nod. Remember walking into WalMart when I was around 14 years old and doing my SNES aisle walk-by ritual. My little brother walked over to me with a FF3 box. We went crazy. We had no idea it was out to buy. $75 some odd dollars later, we had the game that still brings back...

    I'm holding out that this arena mode is going to be fun and people are fretting for nothing. After all, they have made some great changes to the game since release. After how ce turned out, i don't mind if they delay the next raid to make it better. After all, ce is essentially a 3 man...

    Finally got my crux last night. Now if i can just get a word of crota to drop i can say good riddance to hard mode of CE forever! Is anyone planning to run NF this week? I'll look you guys up before i start a run. Valus no burn is going to be fun...

    You guys need to come back so i have someone to raid with regularly! Reddit fireteams and destinylfg are so hit and miss. 3x Crota HM this week: 2 groups excellent and we won in under 30 min each kill. My 3rd character took me 4 hours and 3 different groups to finally beat crota. There are...

    Gjallarhorn is a two edged sword. It drives you insane until you get it, and once you have it you realize it isn't necessary for current content and it just takes up your exotic weapon slot.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    ^ agreed. Just lie. As long as you have something with tracking rockets (truth, HoC, some random legendary with the perk) you will be fine in HM. NM is even less of a concern. And where are you looking for groups that have a gjallarhorn requirement? I ALWAYS do pickup groups for CE...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    Anyone that got the game from GoG have trouble installing? The setup window launches and the bar moved about 10% of the way across the window, and then it stopped moving. The window is still active (game ads scrolling by, setup word has the 3 dots moving), but the bar hasn't budged in 30+...

    For those that don't want to, or can't read the upcoming patch notes, the vault is going from 20 armor, 20 weapon, 20 general to 24 armor, 36 weapons, 24 general items. A very minor upgrade. Their reasoning is that the PS3/360 doesn't have the memory to show more items on screen at once (they...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Yep, just click the blinking stuff and work your way through the story. You'll hit 20 before you finish the story (if you grab a few bounties along the way). The story won't make a whole lot of sense but once you hit 20 the game changes and it won't really matter. Game gets better imo once you...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Play control when Iron Banner is going. The hardcore PVPers will be in IB so your odds of getting to play against less experienced players is higher. Also, be defensive. Find a chokepoint to sit at and let the enemy come to you. The more you practice the better you will get. I went from...

    If you back out of Eris Mons initial quest that is lv 20 requirement, you can accept her bounties. An extra 3750 xp while you do some of the story missions really helps. Also, try to do the story missions with a friend. Much faster. All that being said, even doing it entirely solo and...

    Thanks for all the replies about headsets. Do the Sony Gold's completely cut off outside noise? I kind of need to be able to hear if my daughter is crying, to keep wife faction high.

    Which headsets are you guys using? Looking for some rerolled reviews or recommendations. Looking for best bang for my buck under $100. Sony gold $95 Sony silver $35 hyper x cloud $70 Don't care if they are wireless since I'll use them 99% of the time just for ps4 gaming. Leaning towards...

    Bungie's reasoning is total BS. "They were very weak enemies that didn't drop very good loot". WRONG All the enemies have (or had at the time) the same percentage chance to drop an engram. What you got from engrams was 100% determined by the Cryptarch, and he didn't care where the engram...

    I kinda hope bungie fixes it so either xur's inventory can't be datamined, or it is truly a random inventory roll moments before he spawns. Knowing ahead of time takes all the fun out of Friday...and especially depressing If he isn't selling ghorn for X weeks (and probably forever).

    Oh Destiny, you are such a tease. After burning through 115 motes last week trying for HoPF, and getting nothing but other class exotic chests, Xur sells the HoPF today (for the first time ever).
