Destiny (PS3/PS4) Official Thread

Since I finally got a replacement controller, would anyone be willing to help me beat the Urn of Sacrifice mission on with my level 28 Hunter? I haven't played in weeks (except grabbing that first raid chest) due to a broken controller, and I'd love to cash that bounty in before Xur leaves on Saturday night.
 
Just hit me up if you see me online...is that one hard I think I soloed it...I just ignored the swords.

You talking about the Urzok portion or all of the Urn missions.  Because I thought YOU needed to be the one to get the thrall/hive/wizard kills in order to complete those portions but Urzok could be done in a party.

 
D'oh... that makes more sense.

I really need to get more sleep.

Either way, I can help too.  Just message if I'm on

Sorry for the confusion. Totallyjem is correct. Before the old controller broke, I had attempted the final Urn mission on level 26 and got overwhelmed at the end. I would love to run through on level 30 for bonuses if I can get 2 of you to carry me through it, but would gladly settle for level 26.
 
I'll be on later like after 9 central probably
Okay, thanks for letting me know. I'm not sure about tonight, which was why I didn't list a time before. But I also don't expect anyone to go out of their way to accommodate my schedule. Even on 30, the mission should be quick if we get a third person who is level 30 or higher (so almost anyone).
 
Just got another crux of crota. Bad thing is i dismantled my 2 extra adion alleys, and also a husk of the pit i got yesterday. Yes i already have the necrochasm, but i feel like its wrong to dismantle the crux. LOL

 
Heart of Praxic Fire! ! !      'nuf said

(I lied... look by the speaker)

Damn. This megaman guy really IS legit. Now I just need the crux/necro and my exotic list is complete. He's selling the Arachnid too? 7'll be happy.

I'm 2 for 2 on nightfall exotics.
 
Warlock: thunderlord
Hunter: Arachnid Helmet, is there a special hidden ability for this?

The main perk is just zoom in on the glitch golden gun, which probably would not hit anything at that distance anyways since the glitch nerf.
 
Yes im happy. Got Praxic Fire and Arachnid helmet. I even bought the no backup plans because the ones i had were only light level 30. So good inventory for me. Now the only exotic in the game i dont have is the monte carlo! Wish it would finally drop for me.

 
Lol there were warlocks lined up butts to nuts in front of xur this morning for his milkshake.

I have and like the arachnid helmet for looks but its pretty useless compared to some of the other exotics...most of us are just completing our collection at this point though.

Ive had an old praxic fire for a while, I've never used it b/c I run voidfang in pvp or revive in PVE and sunbreakers are better for that.
 
Could afford only 3 engrams hoping for Saint 14 but instead 2 warlocks while Ive got from NF already and crappy one Xur is selling.
Couldn't down Crota in HM w party of 5 32s and a 31. We dicided for 3 swords but somehow always got screwed at 3rd either Crota suddenly moves to left or right or boomers shots :(

I don't get why some people refuse to jump off the ledge and lure the sword bearer back to the middle when he hides when they run sword. Whenever I run sword if I can't see the sword bearer from the ledge when I get out there I immediately jump down, go find him, put some shots or rockets in him and get him to come back to a good spot as quickly as possible. I joined a group on my hunter that had just lost their sword guy and they were telling me that the sword bearer kept hiding on them. The sword bearer went and hid on the 2nd and 3rd run, but I got him back into the open quickly both times. We dropped Crota on my first run because of this. The group all thought I was some pro sword runner, but it was really just because I went and found the sword bearer and got him to a good spot asap when it was necessary. When I talked to them after we finished they said the guy I replaced never left the ledge until he was going to pickup the sword and when the sword bearer hid he just yelled that they needed to drop him or told them to wipe. They had been trying for almost 2 hours before I came and with one change we got it done in about 5 minutes.

After that I switched back to my titan and joined a group with a hunter running sword who also refused to jump down and find the sword bearer when he hid. That guy gave up after a little bit and left. We found a replacement and one of our other titans switched to his hunter to run sword. He did it just like I did and jumped down to get the sword bearer to a good spot when he hid. We dropped Crota on the first try with him running sword.

I then took a little break before finding a group on my warlock. Once again the guy who is running sword won't go down to get the sword bearer back in a good spot when he hides and we wipe a few times. Someone leaves and the guy who is running sword invites his buddy in who he says is an amazing sword guy. This guy comes in and dies a whole bunch going for extra hits and blames Bungie whenever he dies. He also refuses to leave the ledge when the sword bearer hides and claims that it's a glitch. He also felt the need to drop the N word constantly. After a handful of tries with these guys I just decided to get off for the night.

I didn't end up wasting too much time with all of these groups, but it's frustrating being in a group on my warlock or titan with a hunter who can't get the job done when I know that I could if I was on my hunter. I might just have to start running sword with all of my characters. I have gotten pretty good with my hunter and I think I could get the hang of it with a little practice on my titan and lock.

 
Whenever i play crucible and i die, i always hear a loud knock. I never noticed it before the patch, but its really annoying.
Yeah it was included in the patch 1.1.1 update


PVP


  • Fixed a bug where there was no audio playing for the bullet that kills them

After the ogres, is your group waiting for crota to go back to the middle and then rotate another time around? For example If crota is already in the middle after you finish the ogre round, go back into the crystal room and wait for him to rotate again to the side and back into the middle then carry on as normal. If Crota is at one of the sides, head into the crystal room wait for him to go into the middle then wait again for him to rotate to the other side and back into the middle before your group heads back out into the middle ledge and carry on as usual.

My group and I now always do that, mainly because for trying save a couple of minutes we ruined so many fights (when crota was just a couple of hits away) and this happened because almost always the SB decided to come out late or to hide.

We only come out directly to the ledge if we calculate that one down (two sits) won't be enough to kill him.

wow that was actually intentional? Its really annoying, who cares about hearing the bullet that kills you, why is it twice as loud as everything else? Uhg.

Tried to do some roc strikes last night to get the monte carlo, didnt get it, but i saw a guy get the multi-tool.

 
Hows everyone doing? Been destiny free for like 3 weeks now and its actually kinda refreshing getting out of the addiction. I tend to sleep longer now and was able to play a few new games. The only thing i do now is just check what xur inventory is selling but never actually logged in the game. I might have to check in and buy that hunter helm tonight though. Hehe! With the next expansion set on may i have alot of time to get at least 2 char to 32. But right now im enjoying the freedom. Hehe! Happy playing guardians!
 
Quiter! just kidding...I will take a break as soon as I get this one last thing...trust me...I can quit whenever I want...just one more strike...

Did a full hard Crota and got the hard ship from him and another scout rifle (3rd one)...so now really really really all I want to get is the crux.

Did a hard atheon checkpoint randomly since several people seem to invite me to these. Got another VOC so I guess yesterday was scout rifle day for me. 

I have noticed on LFG if you are a warlock or titan people will invite you a lot more than if you are a hunter who doesnt know sword. Randoms dont want to let you learn, but also expect you to know how...so annoying.

 
Crotaaaa hard run gave me a ship and a scout rifle again...no crux this week I guess.

I did get to practice sword some and the timing of the button pushes to drop the sword and stab was the most difficult part. Push not long enough and the sword wont drop, hold too long and there is a delay in your stab. Got to the second sword but he would always get me at the end before I could get away. Probably should practice more in regular to get the timing down better...

 
Finally got a faction shader!

Nice!

I was leveling up my first warlock today (almost to 15 now in 5hrs 23mins) and since my Titan is FWC and my Hunter is Dead Orbit I was going to go with New Monarchy on it as well. I already got the faction item in a drop...

Freaking phogoth took forever as a group of 12-14s...bullet sponge yay...

I am using the husk of the pit and so far its the best weapon available until I can use the strangers rifle at 16. If nothing else at least I'm leveling another husk.

Has anyone that started playing at the start noticed that they made the levels easier? They removed several enemies from different levels on the moon that I remember. I was looking for knights a couple times that I know used to be there. 

I figure I'll probably reach level 20 before I hit mars at this rate...

Edit: Hit 16 this morning just from doing a couple bounties before heading to venus...

So last night I was 3-manning Deathsinger w/ my wife and a buddy of ours (neither of which ever do raids), just for fun and a shot @ an exotic for someone.

Shortly after we started, a friend I regularly raided with joined the fireteam all casual.....and then suddenly two of HIS friends joined as well (forgot to set group to invite only). Turns out they were just bored, and wanted to know what we were up to.

Long story short: we stomped Ir Yut, and then they carried us through for my wife's + buddy's first Crota kills (and first Raid completions). They are both hilariously undergeared, especially for the Crota fight itself, so it helps when you have a pair of maxed Gjorns to throw at the big C.

Got my THIRD Song of Ir Yut...damnit. Still need that HoC.

I hopped into a Crota raid, with a buddy who made the move over to the PS4.  Did hard up to Deathsinger, where we went to orbit because of a few too may issues with lag.

Tried going back in to Deathsinger but somehow ended up at the Crota cp.  So we just did that.

I ended up getting shards, Word of Crota (my 5th) and Red Death (my 2nd), but no Fang.... still

Go back and run it on normal to help my friend get some gear for an alt toon.  Didn't bother switching out, so when we got to the Deathsinger, I was rewarded with another exotic... Hawkmoon (my 2nd)

That makes 5 exotics for the week:  3 from Nightfalls and 2 from the Crota raid (all dups of current exotics).

I still have one Crota and VoG run to make, though who knows it it'll happen.  Always tough trying to get a raid together right before reset.

 
warlock up to 19...so close

Edit: Ok 24 now...need boots and gloves and leveling everything, but at least I can wear a shader and use exotics like a true baller.

Finally downed Crota hm for first time only w 4th group, an experienced guy explained in realtime step by step unlike many 32s just quit after 2-3 wipes. But then he must leave, and we still finished it by the help of 2 kids, 12-14 lol, one of them went and downed Crota in 2 swords, they were much better than us suck ass adults at sword. Got Song of Ir Yut, ship and Glowhoo.
It just pisses me of that many people are so impatient after few wipes, they just fcking leaf or the hate against low-but-not-that-low-level guys, I got kicked many times after asked and got invited in, I then said these fckers ain't no friend and deleted them straight away. Also I hate the teammate that fcking joined then be afk for like 10 mins or longer without saying a word when we arrived at the checkpoint.

Had a similar experience earlier today myself, when I got my first HM kill. Friend invited me, and we had kind of a so-so swordbearer who opted to swap out for a friend of his + another who were both clearly <14. We had wiped about 2-3 times before this, but after the swap it wnet as smooth as I could have hoped, got him on the first try.

Got my Glowhoo + Word, still waiting on that Hunger of Crota...

 
Hopped into nightfall at lunch and got another parasitic hunter helmet exotic (sharddddddd).

Then ran the first few parts of the crota raid (3 man..well actually 2) to help someone get some gear for their warlock. They got boots so they are up to 30. Regular mode is so much more fun.

Edit:

2nd nightfall 12 useless shards (maybe house of wolves will use these shards??? instead of a 3rd material) (joined after nix cleared the big room so I didnt really deserve anything :) )

2x weeklies the usual blue engrams and coins - nix got a couple purple engrams

nix and I joined a group doing vog on lfg turns out they were like seriously kids...like one of them sounded about 7. They died on confluxes 5 times or so and we bailed. Each time the youngest kid would die I think it was his brother would say Thats a wipe LOL

Crota Hard run...nothing to report. Didnt see any cruxes drop...didnt even see a single exotic drop besides a no land beyond at crota...cheap ass run for sure.

Man this week started really good, from NF Helm of Saint 14 - yay, low stat though, Exotic boots Hunter, handgun, 2 legendary engrams from Heroic, then 2nd Vex, the group was super experienced, done whole VoG HM in like under 1h including lots of waiting. Then CE NM 4 of us got exotic from Ir Yut and Crota not me though :(

Ditto on Saint 14, which i was hoping to get last week from the helmet engrams! Got a dupe Alpha Lupi hunter chest on my second run through (better roll though), and did my first time as "lead" through Vault of Glass Hard. People are really, REALLY scared of using the relic still, so it was fun to finally be able to put my knowledge to use.

FYI: I have the Gorgon exotic chest saved from last week to share, so if anyone is on PS3 and wants it just send me a msg.

this is weird ran, through VoG with 7th/ArJay and killed HM Atheon twice on 2 chars but 2nd char says last 3 bosses have not been raided on bungie.net? Strange that I got the same rewards on both chars on Atheon though (helm and sparrow on both).

This supposed to happen?

Bungie.net only shows how many bosses you have completed, not which ones specifically. So if you only did Atheon on your 2nd character, it would only show 1/4 blocks filled in.

IE: [X][_][_][_], where [X] is a filled yellow block. Note that it will show on the far left, despite Atheon being the last boss, which should logically appear on the far right.

Is that what you're seeing? Otherwise, the website might just be behind on updating, which happens.

Yeah yesterday exotics pop up all over the place. That Atheon kill that gave me helmet, vex, IB, time breaker, and ship....yet no Ghorn. Crota no land beyond, then NF with the alpha lupin for the hunter & I can't remember where I got the Red Death & another Truth.
