Use the crimson hand cannon. Much easier to get those headshots.
Problem with that is, most people leveling up right now are getting their second seed of light from the always played tiered 3 heroic.
Most of us got our third seed that way, we got our second seed from tier 2 blindwell.
Wow, I had some good luck this morning. One Eyed Mask (which I needed), a high level duplicate exotic chest (I forgot the name) and the new Titan exotic gauntlets. The perk lets you hold a defensive sword without it losing ammo. Very useful
Also, this happened:
"Get down from there, Tank. You're a tank and tanks go on the ground!"

Destiny 2 is an digital hamster wheel, i don´t even see what the point is, you level to 650 with all the old boring stuff and one content drop later you get boost quests to 640...now you level to 700 and next content drop you get boosts to 740. i´ve never seen a game so quickly outdating its own level boundaries, the players are catching up every time and no one knows why exactly.
it is all so meaningless, this whole levelling up stuff in content drops just screams busywork by now. i am on hiatus from the game, maybe i will return in the last content drop, maybe not...at this point i think i´ve had my fill with the game, i definitely shouldn´t have bought the annual pass in the 4 weeks of Forsaken release hype, that is for sure.
It's a live service game that's geared towards hobbyists... 😐
I mean your first paragraph pretty much describes every game ever made.
Yeah i am, I'm just really bad at destiny PvP. Literally every other shooter I'm atleast ok at, this is my Kryptonite. I got 5 in like 3 matches, but I think I was dumb to try in comp and mayhem for different reasons.
My last word quest went from 47% to 13% lol.
Exactly how i feel.
I am trying new experiences now (and there are many atm). Maybe will drop by destiny in dlc 3 depending what their plan is with a Sept dlc
Edit: the main armor in dlc2 seems useless to me if you dont play gambit as the perks only work in gambit prime. So i dont see the point of grinding it for something you wont play anymore in 1-2 months max.

Yeah don't play in comp if you don't have to. It is a crappy experience for all but really skilled people.
You can get all the pieces quite easily in a single week. However you will need to wait for later weeks to get more powerful pieces.
ah so you can basically get a full set with only one perk this week? and then next week they will start dropping pieces that offer +2 perks? is that how it works? I probably should watch a video but if anyone has a quick writeup explaining that would be awesome.
I got a chest, legs, and mark in less than an hour of play. So you can get as many armor pieces as you have synths.
Speaking of, I like the synth system. It rewards you for doing the things you already like doing. I'm going for Sentry, for example. And doing the things a sentry would do (even though I don't have a full set yet) grants me Sentry Synth. That's a good design choice right there.
Gambit Prime is fun, I'll have to let myself just grind it for hours. Reckoning is cool, I'm glad you can just sit in it for as long as you have synths to transmute. It's really nice not being kicked to a fireteam loading screen or orbit after each run of it.
I REALLY want the Vanguard Handcannon that Zavala is selling this season. 180s are HOT.
Yup and you're going to want that jotunn to melt wizards in prime
Your level matters much less than the weapons you have and because of this playing is not invalidated by light level increases.
Sure a person who hasn't played in forever can match my light level quickly but they don't have any of the cool weapons or gear with good perks/catalysts that a consistent player has.
Your description more applies to WoW where literally every 3-4 months all your gear is trash compared to the new stuff and lfr gives better loot than the previous heroics
What weapons are you using? And are you taking into account map size when choosing weapons each game?
Every time I get a scrapper bounty and it turns out to be a crucible one I die a little inside.
After seeing it in action more in the Cammy vid, the damage falloff looks bad, the perk only lasting 5 seconds isn't long enough, and the recoil on console is probably terrible.
Hard pass.
The lightlevel is also important in Destiny, in Black Armory you had to level up to tackle the content, same with the last mini raid/raid lair...and exactly 3 months later there is a new level cap in place, it is not so far away from MMORPGs. the point is, Destiny sells a LL increase as one of the main attractions in the content drops which is just wrong and everytime you have to level up by playing the old stuff again. also, iron banner depends on LL increases, you will get stomped if you don´t level up with the rest of the pack.
it is creatively not well done to say at least and just provides busy work for people who like/are addicted to seeing numbers going up, it is a normal reflex in many people to catch up to the biggest number possible. it is dumb content, many people will climb to 700 and drop off the game again, i´ve seen this last time where many from my friendlist stopped with reaching 650. for those folks they beat the content when they reach the new max level and this is reinforced by the game giving higher and higher level caps in short time frames. there are so many people playing excessively for 7-14days till they reach the new cap and then they are nowhere to be seen.
Trust is the best handcannon I can recommend for people that need to score HC kills and suck at them
You do need something to help with the reload though since its base 9 round mag gets chewed up fast
180s are nice since they are very stable when being fast fired.
If you cant get a good trust I think the Curse of Osiris 180 is also very good and shouldnt take to long to get
Again you are missing the point. It's whats on the gear or what the weapons specifically do that matter. The light level on the gear matters of course but any cool item you get at light level 220 can be boosted to 640 rather easily with a shit weapon so again the light level is important but not the focus of the grind. The grind is to get gear and legendaries with good rolls and Exotics that do cool shit. You are missing the mark with your particular criticism.
You are right in that light level does matter in regards to accessing some content that requires a certain level but that is why they give the boost. What matters is that all the grinding consistent players did prior to the content drop is not invalidated and because of what I have already outlined, it is not.
As long as you're a halfway decent invader, solo queue isn't bad unless you run into a 4 stack.
Randoms seem fairly competent at Gambit, it's not that bad.
+25% damage and now you can have 24 rounds in reserve.
You do the math.
I need to give my Lion another run. I even have the catalyst finished.
To me fun factor is worth more than sheer content for the sake of content. CoO was light on the fun factor and thus far the Season Pass is not. I genuinely like the forge experience and the weapons I've gotten from it far exceed any of the Lost Prophecy guns save maybe Perfect Paradox which is still somewhat special. I had more fun with Gambit Prime and Reckoning last night than I did in pretty much all of the CoO content. You are free to have your own opinion but Season pass >>>>>> CoO by a long shot in terms of value for my money based on the sheer amount of fun it has provided.
Are you inserting a completed synth into the bank thing at the start of the Reckoning round before the portal opens? If you put a synth in, just like banking motes in gambit, you should get a legendary piece of armor based on that synth at the end (Reaper synth -> piece of armor with Reaper perks).
I enjoy PVP a lot (the only reason I have fun with gambit). Stop complaining and actually work on becoming a better player.
All you do is cry lately.
Unfortunately, it's the exception.
User Warned: Unnecessary hostility
If I was going to work on getting super skilled at a competitive fps it sure as fuck wouldn't be this piece of shit.
Alternatively; go fuck yourself~
Played solo on both PC and Xbox and had about a 50% win rate. It's the same as it was before though in most (not all as I've steam-rolled full teams with a team of randoms as well) matches against coordinated groups you'll probably be on the losing end and that should increase as players gear up for the mode.
Pretty sure I read that they break up players and matchmake you against different teams/players after each match though so you won't be playing with or against the same players over and over.
Get yourself a 180 and just mindlessly spamming the trigger
Youll eventually get it
This bad boy dropped after I shoulder charged a taken Wizard during my Gambit Prime match. Gonna try it out in Crucible later
I feel like Multi Kill clip will work better in PVE
Like you can maybe get 1-2 kills before having to reload but maybe the single kill bonus is enough to make this thing a menace
How long does multikill clip last?
How many Prime maps are we eventually getting, 2 or 3? Have they said anything about using the old Gambit maps for Prime?
ok, Gambit prime is garbage. In the end, whoever team has the better PvP'er or the most heavy to kill other players is the winner,if thats the case I might as well spent my time in crucible instead. I played 3 matches and lost all 3 because nobody has a healing warlock with lunafaction boots. As usual, Linear Fusion rifles are still cancer in gambit prime.
