That's really impressive for a rank drop. I haven't been very lucky with them myself just Strange Coins and Motes of Light. Iron Banner is about the only thing I will do PvP related and that's only for the rank 5 guaranteed 310 Ghost and 310+ gear. I don't care much for normal PvP for the laggers (be it cheaters or honestly poor connections) and the lack of class or respect from most other players, dancing, taunting or doing their little up down thing over you after you're dead. I may be in a minority but I kinda wish they would do SRL again, not for a entire month like before but for a week or so. I had quite a bit of fun with that.
Getting tired of running the raid 3x a week waiting for a 320 class item, think it might be time to walk away and come back when new content drops.
I really liked iron banner since it actually counted your skillsets and gear instead of making it even. Made all the time getting gear worth it. I just didnt have enough time when it was going on to keep at it.
Need a couple 360 players to join me in doing Paradox on Heroic today. Trying to get the "No Time to Explain" rifle. Nevermind. Ran it solo.
have since replaced the raid cloak with the exotic fwc one, but still the same deal, i just raid for fun anymore and to get a few more guns and sets of armor to 320 to change it up once in a while. Got Syndicate to play in the meantime. Until they drop some new content. I don't mind helping people get their challenges etc in for the week if they need it though
Finally got my hands on No Time To Explain, and nabbed Ice Breaker, Praedyth's Revenge and Corrective Measure in the process. I know, they're Y1 weapons, but I don't care.
I could never do that with the current methods of getting 320 gear...extreme Kings Fall RNG, IB RNG or ToO RNG. Must say I miss the days when the only RNG was what piece you were going to get, not it's light level as well...
FTMFW. When I was lv'n in Taken King, it didn't bother me, but as soon as I was 40, and the rate of the RNG had obviously taken over thru it all, it put me back. It killed the game for me, the grind is ******ed. If they wanted to do some sort of RNG ilvl stuff, they coudl of just of copied WoW with Warforge gear. You don't need it, but if it shows up, cool. But for Destiny, the Light Lv matters to much early on after your max lv and can easily push people away.
Challenge modes helped a lot, 3x 320 gear guaranteed every week plus the rng of hopefully getting a cloak or ghost (ghosts are the bane of my existence, thank God for crimson days) I had good luck with class items though. Think I'm up to like twenty 320 guns now too between oryx and warpriest. I liked how the best as far as leveling. Get whatever gun or armor to max light with a prison run Lol
yep.....I need to run with a group and try and get some 300+ gear. im guessing if I can ever get to play a raid getting the gear will be a little easier, but damn if not frustrating for just one character let alone 3.....
Yeah HoW was probably my favorite time in the game. Good stuff, and loved Trials even if it was plagued with Thorn everywhere. The loot was actually worth it for more than the possible level I think I've run King's Fall about 15 times and I never did get a single weapon from the Warpriest... I mean, if there was actually content that I needed to be 320 to play then god hella damn I'd be 320, but alas there isn't much point to it I feel.
That and im thinking there maybe a tower vendor change coming where you can purchase higher than 280 gear and not depend on the drops.
Hurray! Things to do in Destiny again on the 12th of April. https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/44472/ Says, "new and updated gear" which I'm hoping means year one gear and not just TTK gear...
Actually just noticed that guardians with the Taken shader have full prison of elders gear...guess that could be coming back.
It's so good! Best purchase I made I think, and I've included it to 293. Got my boolean Gemini , 1000 yard stare and the next big thing....,not bad and a 298 chest piece.....295 light and still no raids hahah
