The new Mercury Prophetic shader you can collect from chests on Mercury light up the veins on the Titan exotic gauntlets Synthoceps and it makes it look pretty amazing compared to any other shader.

I picked up a Seven Six Five Scout Rifle with 5% extra range last night which is probably my first decent roll. Then a little later I dropped a Last Hope from Rahool with extra stability. Yep, the most stable sidearm in the game and it has a Stability Masterwork on it.

Also all the different Masterworks possible per weapon type is listed below.

You reckon you could record some gameplay Cal? Just thinking it'd be good to see some action before dipping in the pocket.

Sounds like Trials is the best way to get Masterworks weapons. A little quicker than from raid drops. Vendors are still dropping masterworks across the entire map but on a real low percentage.

It fills gaps this game for me mate. I know others really like it so I'm happy to jump on to fill a squad whenever. There's a ton more people that play but may not have seen this post yet.

15th December Here’s what Xur is selling this week at the Tower behind Dead Orbit: - D.A.R.C.I. [Exotic Sniper Rifle] - 29 LS - Celestial Nighthawk [Exotic Helmet – Hunter] – 23 LS - Hallowfire Heart [Exotic Chest Armor – Titan] - 23 LS - Eye of Another World [Exotic Helmet – Warlock] – 23 LS - Three of Coins – 31 LS - Fated Engram – 97 LS The fated engram is a one purchase per account, not character and will give you a brand new exotic you've not had before.

I must have opened about nearly 30 packages from Rahool to the Gunsmith to Zavala and then to Devrim Kay back to Hawthorn. No Masterwork guns. Until the Gunsmith finally gave me one. Suros Rocket Launcher with Velocity. Not the greatest but I'll take it. The grind for these is real.

Funny you should ask mate, I got my funds yesterday. Sooooo........I need to make sure which part picker I'm using. I need to look at @crazyman case as Rob's looked the right size.

Lol! I couldn't agree more with the second sentence. However, I geniunely don't think it would save them money. Maybe a little but its different people doing the comics at most likely a far cheaper value to a Game Developer having to create a specific lore tab and all the functions to go with it. That said, I geniunely think they'll add some way to relook at lore in the game next year. The recent updates have added way more lore tabs on armour and guns than previously but most have gone unnoticed. They have to a way on their agenda to be showing this in a centralised way in-game.

What's it about bud? And how much is it? I'm up for looking at it if it's an MP game.

Good spot Dave! Not sure I'd wanna do that!

I may be on my own so hoping others can share their view but for £17 there is content and a ton to do. There are still people playing it, just not as many but I'd also argue with The Dawning coming next week, the new raid lair being extremely well made and us giving away a few expansion passes it hopefully will continue to get better. Gary has bought the expansion and we had a really good night on heroic strikes last night. I believe at least 10 people have the expansion already.

When we heard weeks ago about snowballs I was less than impressed, however they are going to transform strikes play for a few weeks and the dynamic of stunning enemies with them. Its just like Overwatch's seasonal events but across multiple activities. It's worth a go at the very least.

Nice work Rob and others. I've heard its great so I'm really glad we're seeing improvements here and there. @techno (Gary) and I played Heroic strikes for the first time last night and I have to say they were brutal and a lot of fun. We wiped a few times on boss fights with a random but it felt like a real challenge and wanted to carry on and beat them. The strikes playlist for me is considerably better than D1. Once they add modifiers which is planned soon you should find this really good content. And herioc strikes now is better than public events to get exotics. Grab the fireteam token from Zavala which gives a chance for the whole team to get exotics.

With the latest patch don't forget to leave space in your consumables for Masterworks cores as they might not go to the postmaster.

A number of things have been fixed since previous updates and most notably the decent ones are the chest farming that has been removed so you can now open chests more regularly and not be significantly penalised. I think after a period of time its drops to 30% of the usual loot but it's a step forward to where they need to be. The raid keys issues have now been resolved but that will now mean you will lose your keys at every reset again. With the latest patch 1.1.1.1 the known issues are below: Masterwork Weapon Cores are not properly forwarded to the Postmaster when dismantling Masterwork Weapons with a full consumable inventory. As we investigate this issue, we advise players to ensure proper inventory space prior to dismantling their items. Masterwork Multikills on Floating Enemies: We have verified an issue where multikills on floating enemies do not produce Orbs of Light as intended. This is currently under investigation. Quickplay Challenges: We have identified an issue where Challenges do not appear to players when they are entering Quickplay in the Crucible. Ikora Waypoint: We have identified an issue where players are witnessing a waypoint over Ikora when they do not have enough tokens for a reputation package. This is currently under investigation.

Following in Blizzard's path, Destiny will get its first Webcomic starting next week. First one is about Osiris when he was part of the Vanguard and how and why he was exiled. For lore fans like myself but hopefully people that enjoy any type of background story, this is a good move. If they're anything like the Blizzard ones with Overwatch these will definitely be appreciated. They'll be available for free on Bungie.net

I'm glad it's coming before Christmas. Also glad that Mayhem is back to change up Crucible a little bit.

“The Traveler is awake. For Humanity, a new Golden Age has begun. This year's Dawning is unlike any other—it's not just the renewal that a new year brings, but the dawn of something greater. Now more than ever, we must gather together in the Tower, at the Farm, and all across the system to give thanks.

I don't usually watch him, I actually have started to watch xHoundishx video updates in which there are many of. Haven't dropped one yet, and they are sounding like they are dropping more from planetory vendors than actual legendary random drops.

Now just because I'm still enjoying playing Destiny 2 and want to do the raid and new raid lair, I think it would be ace if as many of us could go back to Destiny 1 and arrange some times to play all 4 raids. I certainly would love to go back to the Wrath of the Machine as I only beat it once. As others have mentioned, starting new characters and finishing Age of Triumph book would be pretty cool too. Who's up for this?

We've only got £155 to go to be able to buy and give away to all you lot the list above. I've obviously not had any requests to add or change the list above. If so I need to know ASAP. A massive thanks to the generous donations so far. I'm really hoping it is worthwhile for all of you. I'm still open to suggestions on adding something like Assassin's Creed Origins or anything else if you prefer. Obviously, need to hopefully get a few more donations if we're going to get a chance to get all of the awesome stuff. I'll also put a poll up as a way of capturing what you'd like from the giveaway. Keep your eyes open for it.

Do you think its because Microsoft put pressure on them to get their one 'exclusive' title out before christmas to boost sales? That's what it smells like t me. A real shame. I wanted to actually have something to play on my xbox. Considering I know its miles better than Fortnite, I'll have to focus on getting my PC parts instead. They must fix it though. Regardless of how difficult as all games that make clear mistakes like this one are getting verbally battered out there, they must respond quickly and appropriately.
