Don't link me to irrelevant PvP stats. Answer the question. This was never a debate about the kind of player Gladd is in PvP, but in PvE.
How many Seventh Columns does he have? Rhetorical question (like I hope yours were).
And nope. This was always a debate about whether PvE "skill" was impressive, and in a game with a PvP component, I don't see how trouncing static AI is impressive. Sorry you don't get that. Which is why I don't get why people complain about PC players having a PvE "advantage."
PVE isn't static. Its got its own rhythms and flows. AI might be a set rule of determinants but unless you act the exact same way every time in response to the exact same choices the AI makes, PVE still has its foibles. If it didn't, we'd all have grown bored of the game by now. Except maybe the mentalists out there who love to do simple and predictable things all day, like 2 + 2 over and over.
You can't act like a big dick bandit because you prefer PVP over PVE. Both have their own merits, and PVE certainly isn't the dumbasses choice.
Well, given 2.0 isn't coming for 2 full months, regular armor and its perks still very much matter. So getting rolls that you prefer to have should be a thing if you like this armor enough to want to wear it all the time.
If it isn't impressive then so many more people would have world's first titles but they don't. Your whole argument is thrown out the window right there. Gigz (a much better PvP player than Gladd) has less world's first titles than Gladd. Literally two teams beat Last Wish in the first 24hrs. T1 and Redeem and the latter was first. Like I said, show me how many world's firsts you have, how many raid bosses you've soloed or two-manned or how many speed running records you have. If you have literally none of those then you really don't have much of a place to be saying what he's doing in PvE content isn't impressive.
We'll just agree to disagree then *shrug*
I mean, sure, but then PvE is way lower on the totem pole.
Precisely. Not to mention PvE involving more than just point and shoot, particularly in raids.
You sure do complain a lot. Crucible is fun and exciting. Work on improving your own gameplay instead of delegating blame.
Yes, some are very annoying. The best of the best just slay and do their thing.
I know it's been done to death but good lord scouts are fucking awful. I'm trying to get these arc kills against guardians step done but I seem to be just getting maps with massive sight lines. I don't have an arc pulse rifle so I decided to try a scout and there doesn't seem to be a range where it's worthwhile.
tri-cycle sparrow in pink actually gives me life.
Use a Waking Vigil. It's pretty meta right now. Scouts just aren't in a good place for most content in D2.
The only place Scouts are really strong (imo) is for 200k+ Nightfall runs. That said, the Reckoning scout with explosive rounds is pretty good in all activities. One of the few that is.
Near free wall-hacks are inherently problematic on any class that has them.
Bows are even worse with the draw time.
I don't know how to use a hand cannon on maps like Midtown, especially when no one is going for B on control.
Also apparently I scrapped my decent Waking Vigil in my last vault purge, rip.
You know that once you get the purple armor on a character than the solstice packages can drop purple armor with different stats?
i see. :(
but yea with hand cannons (or really any weapon archetype), you get used to them. Just gotta spend time with them. It may take a very long time (hundreds of matches), but once you find that sweet spot in range and more naturally gap-close to get into that range you'll become a fan of them.
I started Destiny 2 with pulses and scouts because (1) I was not comfortable with short/mid-range weapons and gameplay speeds, and (2) I was not familiar with any of the maps, having not played D1. I was simply more comfortable with dad weapons and playing at dad speeds (more passively). It wasn't really until Forsaken or just before it that I started using more short-ranged weapons. Now I play typically an aggro style with a hand cannon and shotgun or sniper rifle and I never ADS for longer than 1 second. Just takes a lot of time and desire to get better with a given archetype.
It's a very small drop rate, and the chances of getting enhanced perks is even slimmer than the chance of getting Solstice armor.
Once Armor 2.0 is out, chances are it's gonna turn out that it wasn't even worth grinding for to begin with.
Mountaintop will be made easier before or after Shadowkeep? If after, does progress reset? I know you have to hit Fabled in the final step.
I normally use hand cannons, it's more that when it's not control (and when it is too frankly) those long range maps devolve into people sniping between A and C to control the heavy ammo. I don't know the maps well enough either to properly gauge where people are based on the radar to properly flank either.
I have a sneaking suspicion that spike grenades will be nerfed around the same time, so they may not be nearly as good in PvE.
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised or at Shadowkeep release. But I play with Fighting Lion a lot either way nowadays, so it's something I'd be chipping away at regardless and already over Fabled so was wondering.
As a Warlock main seeing the shadowkeep armor pushed me even harder to get my solstice armor due to how ugly it is.
In my experience (about 70 packages), I got a solstice armor piece about 20% of the time.
they will 100% get nerfed. enjoy them for the next 60 days and prepare to farm something new.
Lol I challenge you to help me get to fabled then. Lol.
Soon. I see the finish line. \o/ (Quickplay, Militia-Fighting Lion-Play of the Game)
Aaaand its done. I need to sleep now. :)
that I can do. you on PC?
grats!Aaaand its done. I need to sleep now. :)
I like gambut, I just dont want to HAVE to play it an inordinate amount
Hmm, what are the rules for getting brand new exotics to drop?
I have ever other exotic on my Warlock except for Astrocyte Verse and I keep getting dupes.

Its all random, unless Xur is selling it. You might as well get into grinding Nightfalls and hope you get Exotic Engram drops.
Well then, I guess I will have to wait until next season before I have fun with blink.
Did you buy Xur's latest engram yet? He's in the tower right now, in the hangar up the back of Dead Orbit's bit. You could get Astrocyte Verse from it since he always aims to give you something you don't have yet.
Yeah, but I mainly use it for the full reload since IO is incredibly short.
