re: ***tOfficial Destiny XBONER thread***

And they would be nerfing the fricking auto rifles the day after I get one. frick Bungie.

If you just stay together you won't even really need to take the oracles out. My groups like hour long raid time likely just got a little bit longer though.

I just hope I get something other than ascendent materials this week.

Level?

Great...no fix for Bad Juju. Damn thing doesn't reload when you kill harpies. Wonder if they even know that's a problem. Anyone else notice that?

Wish they would up the damage a bit on it or give it more ammo in the magazine. It's not the best exotic out there, but it's really nice when killing a bunch of adds and never having to stop to reload or pick up ammo.

I picked up an autorifle with vanguard marks, wondering how big the nerf is. The reduction to headshot modifier is going to piss off a bunch of people.

Yeah, PvP it's terrible, I'll agree. I just like it when running PvE missions and patrols because you never have to reload or search for ammo. If they would increase the magazine to 21 rounds from 15 it would be a huge buff. You should be able to miss one or 2 bursts and still be able to take down someone.

You have to admit in a hallway with waves of enemies running at you it's nice to just pump 100+ rounds from it and never reload. When I get to bosses though I tend to switch because it's complete crap for bosses. Very situational to waves of enemies, patrolling and vanguard missions for me though.

I have a question about heroics, is there any benefit from doing the vanguard bounties on the level 22-28 heroic modifier? Do more rare/legendary engrams drop and I just am not paying enough attention? I usually just rush them on the lowest heroic and finish them in a couple minutes and move on.

This is one of the easier nightfalls I can remember. Devils Lair strike is easy. You could solo this one and only have to worry about the one area where you deploy your ghost abd fight the 3 waves. The snipers and invisible vandals are a pain. It's void modifier so make sure to use those weapons.

And yes the level 28 dailys/strikes/etc all have a higher chance of dropping exotics and legendary. Plus you are guaranteed shards/energy.

I wasn't talking about the daily. I was talking about the bounties you get to go kill Draksis for instance on heroic. Does doing it on say level 14 heroic differ from level 28 in terms of drops? I've done a few on level 24 and really didn't seem like the extra time (due to increased difficulty) provided substantial rewards, so I just went back to the first heroic difficulty when doing them.

That was a while back though and wondering if it has changed or I just had crappy luck with drops.

Appreciate it, been wondering that for a while now. I can definitely see the benefit in the Daily/Weekly level difference but I just felt as though I was wasting time on the regular bounties instead of just rushing through them, getting my rep and xp for motes.

Also, anyone else get aggravated that they don't make exotic bounties have their own slot instead of holding a spot with the rest keeping you from being able to pick up 5 normal bounties at once? I've been having the thorn one for over a week now waiting to get the chance to run that level 26 instance to kill the guy with Phogoth. All I've heard is that it's a huge pain in the butt so I haven't tried to run through it solo and hope for the best.
