Took@crispymorgan through it last night with Hector supporting as well. I agree that it isn't as hard as last week's but still got to avoid a few potholes along the way getting the orbs. I imagine the Ascendant Challenge will change after reset today so if anyone needs help with this, shout up as a few people can hopefully be around to support. Its worth it for the Powerful Gear drop that comes from the Bounty you guys have.

You guys should 2 man the raid then, show us how its done [emoji8]

And your name is Biron....

I thought it was you bud, I'm glad you finally found us man. As I said on there, we're up for most things on here, take a look around and if you have anything to share we'd love to hear it mate. You'll soon get used to the banter here as well I'm sure [emoji2] P.S. You're missing out on Titans 4 Lyfe [emoji6]

You hit the nail on the head more accurately when you said its like no other game. It takes elements from a lot of games and then makes something from it. Loot is and always will be a problem. Needs to be something there always to chase as a player. I do think the World Vendors need updating to give more reasons to go to the other planets. I imagine this again should be a Year 2 update. The flip side and good news to what we have to look forward to should answer some loot problems. We have Faction Rally 3.0 to come back at some point alongside Trials. We then have Iron Banner on Tuesday followed by The Dawning Event coming next month. Don't forget we still have some Dreaming City gear to obtain as well as the Last Wish Raid weapons too.

I read though making gear irrelevant from previous years is a common thing with MMOs. It just doesn't get good rep because its not entirely an MMO and I get that. They made Year 1 armour still relevant although, lets face it, when new gear conea out you wanna get the new stuff. Everyone wants new loot. I think making raids and lairs relevant to Power level will happen, just at a later date. My guess is at end of Year 2 rather than end of Year 3 like in D1. They seem to be learning quicker than D1 or its because their code base is easier to make changes. I actually think their bug fixing is way better than it ever was, better than alot of other games out there. Communication of these too has gone up tenfold.

Nice intro bud! Also good to see another person play in NA times. There's quite a few of us here and we try and play all things Destiny, but also other games too. Definately think we can get you on raids, strikes, etc. Make sure you send out friend invites (I'll do the same when I'm on next). Whats your main Subclass? Hope you enjoy your stay at FG mate 👍

I agree with all of that Rob about Last Wish. I was actually angling my comments to Kings Fall which is in my top 3 experiences ever on Destiny. We soon forget we did so much and had the UK vs US Raid Run. That was so much fun.
-
Might surprise you but I agree 100% with all of TigerBurge's comments. Loot pool, Sleeper in Gambit, Yr1 Vault and Xur all need a little rethink. It's also fair to say these aren't major issues either, this is what we should be giving feedback on rather than the fundamentals like "more content plz". The one that gets me really confused and disappointed of all is something that isn't high on the list but would expand the game hugely - more 6 player activities. I've finally got my head around 3-man, 4-man and 6-man activities at different times but they have finally got some activities that are extremely close to high endgame 6 player experiences, yet we can't enjoy them in a simple way of jumping together. Escalation Protocol and The Blind Well are experiences imo that should be enjoyed in a 6 player instance, with party up systems just like the raid. You need to keep people together and if you only have Crucible Quickplay available for a 6-man team after a raid run it limits the 'social' aspect somewhat. One answet could be in a further release to open up The Dreaming City as a whole to 6 player fireteams, even the Patrol. Just whack up the intensity and Power levels.

I'll come out right now and say the main reason why people couldn't get on with it was because it was a proper raid. Multiple big boss battles and some mechanics to learn. Thats how full raids should be (barring the stupid running in a figure of 8 running). Also, because of that, Raid Lairs should get more credit than they got on release. It we ask ourselves truthfully, its because we haven't got time to complete raids most of the time. Don't let the length of this put you off straight away. This raid shows early signs of the pinnacle of all raids which is great news.
-
You mean this? I hesitated for a moment then took it on. Yeah, that latest about 0.8 seconds [emoji23] I do wonder why he's there and what will it be connected to.

The raid completion has set off a number of changes in the Dreaming City. This seems like the first rotation of 'the curse' on the City to the half way place to its strongest rotation. I jumped on quickly to see what has changed. After a brand new cutscene you have 3 new things so far that are different. First is black Taken spots that are everywhere. This could and should mean new things popping up in new places. Second is the fourth new strike of Forsaken is available on the Director, The Corrupted. Its level 500 and some people should have a bounty ready to use that requires you to do the strike whilst adcendant (drink a Queensfoil). Third is a brand new mission new mission became available at Petra! I solo'd it as its 520 so not too hard but a fun different mission nonetheless. This should be a new quest as at the end it told me there was a new step however this may be hidden currently as its not in your inventory. It does give you a Powerful Drop though which was nice. Looking forward to what else we should find. Let us know if you see anything else on the map?

Lolz. I'm so glad they made an emblem for the first 24 hours completion 😂 You do need some serious power to get through final stages. I still won't check anything video or step by steps info. I seen Byf asking for help this morning from people that are 555 or higher as a minimum for the last segments of the raid. Grind has become very, very real.
-
Love it. Someone thought they had and then another phase kicked in! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] ITS DONE! Team Clan Redeem have done it. They are possibly going to be the only team within 24 hours at this rate. Unbelievable.
-
I'm not watching any clips of any kind because I want to have my first run blind however I'm reading my Twitter feed and they are still going for World's First! Atheon was 14 hours World's First completion....this is the first raid that could beat it! This is even with people around 550 Power too. Me thinks alot of us have a few weeks of grinding to do....
-
Oh nice! Its definitely something that are always sought after by many companies. I think its good for anyone actually as it gives you some appreciation as to what goes on many things that we all use on a daily basis.
-
Fair play Dan. Funnily enough that's exactly what I'd love to do aswell. I've started on CodeAcademy as its free. How much is your course? Its been a while since I've picked it up though.
-
Thanks! Wondered where she was since Tuesday.

Important notes to know if you played in Year 1, then Xur isn't much use and won't be for quite a while. Xurs Fated Engram is bugged and will return in a number of weeks. Xur will not sell Forsaken Exotics, nor will they be in the Fated Engram once back for "a long period of time". Only positive to be aware of, that Bob mentioned in the early tips thread, is that Year 1 exotics do drop with a few additional random perks which mean they will be slightly better than original drops.

In the Garden of Esila (currently) there is a chest that requires you to kill worms that are dotted around the surrounding environment in order to open the chest. You need to find and shoot 10 worms in order to open the chest. Whilst they'll be 10 worms in locations you initially find, there are reports of many spawn points (possibly up to 20) for the worms therefore we'll need to start collecting each spawn point and pass the knowledge on. Equally, the Wormhost Chest may spawn in a different week by week which isn't confirmed yet. Loot Lootwise I believe it should be like a regular Ascendant Chests you find around the Dreaming City. It is classified as a "Secret" if you are completing a "Find Secrets" Bounty from Petra and there is also a Secret Triumph connected to unlocking the chest as well. Let us know what you find!

Its a paired gun with the Legendary gun, Drang. Its actually very powerful in certain instances if you use them right. Ask @Blubear.

Here's some pretty nice pictures from the This Week at Bungie (TWAB). Separate one I found with the new Chicken emote
-
I believe its for Sturm. Its the only Yr 1 exotic I haven't picked up yet.

It definitely feels like they had so much to do that the Blind Well was finished in a tight deadline. I agree on the loot but even more so on the variety of bosses. Its like Court of Oryx but with the same boss spawning everytime. I do expect them to develop it more and not just leave it like it is. Unlike Escalation Protocol that is unlikely to be modified (although i think thats fine as it is), is that it is on the Endgame planet. I can't see them just leaving the Blind Well alone for that reason as they've badged it as the place to continually go back to at the end.

untilI think its time for another FG GTA Friday! We usually start with one or two Nascar races and then open it up for everyone choices. We'll make use of catch up as usual and throw a few Last Car Destroyed on some races to keep things squeakybum tight! We'll see if we can some recordings this week and then start picking up videos again. Bring a beer, or 7! Make sure you RSVP if you can or can't make it!
