Destiny

Slowly grinding my way up there, currently at 25.

What's holding you back right now? Gear? Upgrading your current gear?

Just seeing if there's a way to help or maybe offer advice.

Side note: I actually had some good luck last night. Leveled up the cryptarch and got my package. Instead of 2 blues like it is 99% of the time, I got 4 blues and 1 legendary weapon. I was shocked.

Well I just started playing again this weekend. I was at 24. I have one piece of legendary armor and I am working on leveling that. I have leveled the defense twice and have two more to go. Spinmetal is not the issue, I have been farming that. Just need more ascendant material. Thrasher and I completed the Weekly herioc on 26 last night. Now that I am back into playing the game I don't feel that it will take me that long to get there.

Also, pulled my first exotic boutnty last night which is cool.
 
I was looking at the bounties. You have Bad Juju. Good gun. I think it's a primary fusion rifle which fires fully automatic, which sounds amazing, but it doesn't deal elemental damage so is it really a fusion rifle? Confused.

I was trying to decide which guns I wanted out of the list, and Bad Juju is certainly near the top of the list, but all of them either deal simply kinetic damage or solar damage. No arc or void damage. That sucks!

For now I'm just focused on buying legendary weapons for each slot and each elemental. My weapons are way underpowered.
 
I think the only advice I would have is bang out public events (destinypublicevents.com). You get a shard or energy for the first one each day. Each event can also grant shards and energy. I've had stretches of getting a shard or energy 3 out of 5 events, and I've had stretches of 10 or 12 in a row yielding nothing.

And I'd recommend buying armor from your mentor if you can. Buy more and breakdown if you can and need shards.

When you open the Nightfall or weekly lvl 28, I'll help out any time and walk you through it if you need it.

I play a lot of 24 level Strikes. I've gotten lengendaries from the end round dice roll quite a few times now.

If you got the strange coins, buy an exotic weapon or armor this weekend, which ever you are missing. Buy an exotic engram to break down if you have a bunch of coins.

ps. Here's how I approach exotic bounties. I hit square to abandon. Done. lol. I can't stomach the time in the crucible.

Think you'll be available for the Nightfall after lunch tomorrow?
 
Probably not. Slim chance I might be on around 3pm for a couple hours. If so, let's do it!

If we do it, it'd be best to have 1 more guy. It's not all that hard but having an extra in the first big room and shooting the last guy helps make it go much quicker.

Are you on PS4? What level would I need to be to roll some with you guys at some point? I managed to move up from 7 to 15 the past couple days but I know I still have a long way to go.

I have a level 7 that I need to level up. You could do patrols and bounties but the vanguard strikes and daily/weekly strikes require higher levels. 20+

Yeah I've just been playing story mode and trying to do as many bounties as I can. If you want to play and see me online, hit me up.

It really depends on what we're doing. You're gonna have to get to 27 or 28 to take on any of the seriously high level stuff with us.

But kwebb and I just goofed around and completed bounties the other day. You can do that with like a level 20 and a level 28 just fine. If you're level 17, then you're gonna be level 24 within a week if you play more than once or twice a week. Your first few "light levels" are quick. You can attain them just by finding blue gear, but you have to wait until you hit 20 before any gear you find will have light.

Oh, I finally got an exotic bounty last night. I decided while I was in the tower I was going to start checking the gunsmith every time I was there for rare fusion rifles, because I wanted the Pocket Infinity. So as soon as I checked the gunsmith, I went to turn in 2 bounties and was offered the exotic bounty. It was the Bad Juju (Primary Fusion), Super Good Advice (MG) or Pocket Infinity (Fusion Rifle). I got Pocket Infinity, since kwebb already has Bad Juju. The bounty is really easy, it's just going to be really, really time consuming to try to find 10 rare fusion rifles to dismantle. It's basically just waiting until the gunsmith sells them.
 
Today I will be Rank 3 Vanguard. I haven't decided what kind of legendary weapon to buy yet. I like auto rifles for whenever I do the Crucible, but they aren't that effective in strikes. I do know I want a primary weapon, though.

I doubt I will be on at that point. I have plans for the afternoon. Will you be on Sunday? I want to complete the Nightfall every week to try to get some actual weapons so I can try Vault of Glass in the next couple weeks. I'm not worried about my armor, but I need legitimate weapons.

I still only have that legendary sniper rifle I got with you last week.
 
I'm jealous. The Suros Regime is pretty much the best gun in the game, apparently. Health regeneration and ridiculous bonus damage.

You going with weapon or armor?
 
Just read that they are apparently planning on nerfing the Suros in a future patch. TIFWIW. I still want it. I wonder how many coins I have.
 
I equipped the Suros last night. Figured I'd check it out. Haven't shot it yet but it's about half way upgraded.

Pro Tip: When turning in bounties, equip the weapons and gear you need to upgrade. Whatever is equipped when turning them in is what gets the xp boost. So, if your main weapons are maxed, switch to your other weapons and level them up when turning in bounties.

Thanks for the tip Rosen!
 
Funny how things work, right before I go to buy suros regime, I pick up my first legendary weapon (pulse rifle).

When I got rank 3 on Vanguard rep to be able to buy my legendary assault rifle, My rank up reward was a legendary rocket launcher. So now I have one legendary for each slot of weapons and armor. Soon to have an exotic weapon. So it works out sometimes. Win some and lose some. I definitely have known how you feel though. Now when you complete your bounty, you'll have 2 exotics and a legendary, but all primary weapons. :-\

Yep all primary weapons. Suros is a beast! I am not even a vanguard rank 2 yet lol. About 75% there. That is what I am focusing on now.
 
Which class is more popular? Titan, hunter or warlock?

I went with Hunter but want some opinions before I go too far
