Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

Yeah the heroic strikes are just not worth it IMO. I ran a few last night, trying to get to 5 to finish up the never ending quest. And between people just nopeing the fuck out of them and the difficulty scaling, its not worth it. I did 2 last night two man and it sucked, but I didnt want to be that guy to leave. We ended up finishing them but it was fucking brutal and a waste of time. Did the prison one where its all dark and the brothers one 2 man then another finaly with 3 which went a whole lot smoother. But later I think another quest opens up for you to do the nighfall and it rewards a 300 shotty, thats what ive been hearing at least and why I just want to grind out the 5 to open up that other quest.

Finally ran some of the court while exploring the dreadnaught last night, was cool, did a few ones then a few twos with like 3-4 people. Goes fast, scored a few blues but nothing really of worth except a artifact that was 296. But sadly I think we all ran out of runes so it kind of broke apart.

I think I ended up at like 287 light last night so thats cool. Still need a decent chest, titan mark, secondary and heavy which are all at the 270-280ish mark. Rest of my shit is 290+.

Also what the fuck is with the empty ass patrols? I still have a ton of those fucking taken ultras or whatever to kill and every time I zone in im like the only dude there. Tried several times last night but no one there. Man this game is fucking wonky when it comes to shit like that.

Yes it can be completely avoided. But its still fun to jump in from time to time and wreck some shit. This pvp is pretty unique as shooters go.

So I hit 40 last night. Other than just grinding gear to get light 290, what are the things I should be doing daily or weekly that I could miss out on? Like what should I be doing a minimum?

Well when you hit the right light level do the daily mission and daily pvp match. The daily pvp does not require a minimum light level. Weekly gunsmith guns to test. Nightfall when you get to 280. And complete all the quests in between. I guess there is some weekly pvp thing to do as well but i never looked into it.

I know someone else asked as well, but asking still makes me feel inept lol, but could you please elaborate on what to do (steps, map, secret decoder ring)? I am so tired of empty zones. Its odd because the first few days of TTK everything felt packed and now I am mostly alone (unless in a pre-made) and trying to kill these Tk bosses solo in patrol is a pain. Thanks ahead of time for any help!

Do a google search on it. They have all the makes and models of modems and routers and what to do. They are all different. But usually they have the log in information on the box itself. You nust have to open up the ports (most have a firewall on them for protection). Then set up a static IP on the PS. Usually when you turn the ps on it automatically assigns a random one from a range of ip addresses your router has. You want a static one assigned. All this shit is explained when you google the shit better than i could ever do.

Got up to 286 light. But that's with a 300 Shotgun I got from a rep ranking that I won't use because I hate shotguns. So 285 when I equip my sniper rifle. Ended up getting a blue ghost shell for 295. Wtf.

The itemization for the legendary marks is pretty whacked. Why even have them at all? In the time it would have taken me to get even one or two of those items, I was able to get blues that were better. I have marks which I have no use for now. They should bump up the power of those items sold to augment getting items via strikes. At least to 290/295.

Playtime is limited tonight but will be on tomorrow night, and All weekend. Would like to raid. I have never been on one.
