If I can stay up that long I should be on still. I have never done it before but i really want to give it a shot at least once.

'ers blacklisting people who don't have Gally is absurd, especially when you consider that they won't introduce matchmaking for raids & NF (if there was MM'g, then there wouldn't so many LFG sites and you wouldn't see so many idiots saying "must have Gally").
And the part that gets me is that if they want us to spend more time, give us some moreThe nerfs to Gally and BH do annoy me... just because it's Bungie telling me I'm playing their game wrong.
Their excuse to blame dumb
The real motive for the nerf goes back to the same reason why they wouldn't let Xur sell it since the early days of the game...
Gjallarhorn makes things easier. If it's easier, then you're not spending as much time on the activity. If you're not spending as much time in the activity then Bungie can't boast about the amount of time players spend in the game.
Black Hammer became another one of those "Easy Button" weapons. In reality, BH was a mistake in that it should have been an exotic, not a legendary weapon. (BH+Gally combo in PvE is devastating)
In the end this is Bungie saying we don't like to see our activities beaten sooo quickly... and we hate it when you one-man this stuff.
I will say, the likelihood that Xur sells Gjallarhorn, AFTER the patch, goes up big time (.001->1%)
I can live without Gally; did for most of the game. Only really started to abuse it once they let us carry all the Heavy synth in 100 block stacks. Prior to that, I'd only equip it for specific boss fights. Same goes for BH since I only had one and was usually lazy about moving it around.
This is like the Skolas fix. They said it was unfair so they reduced his health and removed burns. But the reality of it all was that they guaranteed a drawn out fight (no more 2 minute kills) and still left in more than a few cheap-shots from Skolas and the minions.
IDK, this Bungie-logic is getting old.
ing variety for christ sake. I've become numb doing the same old bounties day in and day out. Make a compromise of some type and give us some new weekly events for free. That would get people playing more. The original Queen's Guard event was cool. Now we only have Iron Banner grind fest to look to event wise.
Wow, yes... 100% yes! While the original QW event stuck around too long, I sorely miss it now. They obviously have the blueprint to implement it again, which is why it's sooo odd that they won't bring it back. Hell, they could've left the rewards the same just because I really wanted those Queen armor pieces for my warlock and hunter.And the part that gets me is that if they want us to spend more time, give us some more
I agree BH should probably have been exotic and they should have the stupid Necrochasm be legendary. It would have been gratifying to put in all the work you did for the Necro and it be towards Black Hammer. That would have been rewarding!
With ongoing buffs and nerfs, you never know what to expect. If you enjoy a weapon, even if it's kind of underpowered now, I say hold onto it.
I just ran them on hard on Friday night for my first time in a long time as well. Miss doing that, though I might be doing it more since a few of my friends need good exotics still (Gjally of course and 1 needs an IceBreaker)
For flawless, I suggest using these guys as they have been helping people with sessions on trueacheivements for a while now:
Thanks man! I joined and posted to that page. Mighty nice of that crew to run raids to help folks.For flawless, I suggest using these guys as they have been helping people with sessions on trueacheivements for a while now:

They do normal Crota and cheese first 2 sections. They have all done a bunch of flawless runs so they are pretty surgical. I think it only took 25 minutes from start to finish when I ran it with them.
I think at this point there are just too few people from here playing consistently and that is your best route to get that achievement out of the way. I think I ran the raid one time since HoW came out and it was my flawless run.
Speaking of finding more people playing, are those clans you mentioned pretty active? I might have to check them out.
Also I threw a bunch of games on my gamefly queue before leaving on vacation last week and lo and behold what was waiting for me when I got home this weekend.... PS4 version of Destiny... WTF am I thinking...

The DoD X1 Ghost guys are still active and are a good bunch. Pretty organized but low key in how they approach things.
4 weeks, I'm surprised it is that low...Yeah, I can't convince myself to start up fresh on a new console. The big drag would be re-acquiring the weapons...
though, this might be a good time to go for it, what with all the nerfs they're going to implement and the new expansion coming.
BTW, not my find but someone just posted this over on the PS thread

. Scored a Lucky Raspberry, Obsidian Mind and some purple weapon that I immediately sharded.
You fared much better than I. I got a shitty scout rifle, 10 strange coins and....Ran the NFs last night. Must say that rainbow burn makes almost any strike enjoyable, even if I am running it for what seems like the thousandth time...
Scored an etheric light from the weekly Variks package so that was cool. Ran some bounties for my key and to try to level up the last couple exotic weapons that I never bothered to max out (Universal Remote and No Land Beyond).
If anyone is going to do some PoE let me know. Would like to get my Variks rank up to 3

Grats man! It is a very good feeling getting that first crota kill with the sword. And of course you get an amazing reward for doing so :lol:
Yea you have it
Going to be on tonight or tomorrow night? I know you get on late for me, being PST, but I'm in to run Skolas with you if we're both on.
I'm down if you're both on. I haven't done in a while, and can use whichever class would help us be most successful. Thought I had to work this weekend, but may be off tomorrow,so I'll be up late. I'm Central time, though, so maybe 2am will be when I get off.
Indeed. Dance parties ensued. 
Damn, for me the last achievement is that stupid salvage one. I played a bit of that last night. I have no idea how close I am. I guess I have to log out of my profile and back in to see if it pops. Once I get that I am really toying with the idea of just being done with the game for good. It is such a time sink and the last few weeks it has stopped being fun and become more of a chore, though I did have some fun running PoE with Simo and Chubby the other day. I miss the early days of the game when the CAG crew met regularly.Nice work getting that last achievement! So one of the guys you were playing with got flawless on their first Crota completion?
I think I am going to try to do some PoE runs tonight since I haven't been consistently clearing them each week. If anyone has any left to do let me know. should be on around 8-9pm eastern.
I have only played 6 games of salvage in total so you have to be close if you have played around that many games. They say that the stat you are looking for is the deployment stat they show at the end of the game stat table. But like you said, you very well might have satisfied the requirements, but are just stuck in limbo due to the wackiness of how achievements unlock in this game.
, i'm running out and don't have multiples of anything.
