Derek™ Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Try as I might, I can't stop thinking about this and blurting out with laughter. Goddammit, Rooks. This is all your fault. batman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 Hahaha this morning I thought about a Forrest Gump ghost. "momma always said an engram's like a box of chocolates.. You never know what you're gonna get" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Potter Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Patch details live next week: http://www.bungie.net/7_102-Patch-Preview/en/News/News?aid=12202 All purple engrams are legendary or + all blue are blue or + higher % chance for blue to be legendary item daily heroic strikes and vanguard strikes will have more rare/elegndary rewards ***ALL LEGENDARY ENGRAMS IN YOUR INVENTORY WILL BE DEMOTED TO BLUE/RARE ENGRAMS THE DAY THE PATCH GOES LIVE SO DON'T SAVE THEM*** this is good news because I finally got a purple engram for the first time on Friday and it decoded to blue… and then it happened again the next day. It's the wort feeling ever. On the plus side… I was reward with an exotic fusion rifle at the end of a Crucible match I got my ass kicked in. I thought the only way to get them was with strange coins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I was reward with an exotic fusion rifle at the end of a Crucible match I got my ass kicked in. I thought the only way to get them was with strange coins. Nope. All the Exotic drops I've seen in Crucible matches go to players who either suck, or sit around with dick in hand for the entire match. Apparently there's a video on Youtube of some kid stepping out for the entirety of a match - and contributing nothing to his team - and scoring the only Exotic drop in the lobby. Shit is so bizarre. I'm not great at Crucible, but I get my streaks going from time to time. And even when I'm at the top of my game (and the score boards), I can't even get a rare engram. And in addition, when I'm in a funk and doing horrible, I still can't get any drops. It's so random. I don't know if it's Bungie's way of "balancing out" the game by rewarding great gear to bad players, but it seems really sporadic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Potter Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Yeah, I wasn't doing too well… way under 1.0 KD. After the rifle though I was able to get a lot of kills. The thing is nasty! Short charge time and its a one-shot-kill with a pretty decent range and that's not even upgraded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Plan C Sweet. The rapid charge time has me really intrigued to see that one in action. Seems like it'd be perfect to whip out while rounding a corner and finding someone closing the distance on you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like it'd be perfect to whip out while rounding a corner and finding someone closing the distance on you. It was working well when my team was capturing a point and guarding it. I was sitting guarding an entry point holding the charge but releasing before firing. Dudes would peak around the corner and with it half charged it's easy to get off a quick shot and wreck them.

Hairy Potter Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Plus with the fusion's ability to pass though enemies I was able to get a couple double kills when they were grouped together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Has anyone seen the Pocket Infinity in action yet? I just got it and it's terrible so far, I'm interested in how it switches to full auto later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rooks Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Yo Derek I gotta grind the same shit tonight if I can nab two more rare+ fusion rifles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluedeni Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I have never gotten an exotic from the crucible. I did get a legendary engram but it turned into a blue. The silver lining is that it pushed me to the next level with the cryptarch who gave me two legendary engrams and one stayed legendary. I ended up turning in into shards.

Shelby Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Don't tell me that. I'm on the last step and was excited to grind out those 200 Nightfall kills... It's got 3 shots and takes forever to charge for each one. I didn't like my exotic shotgun at first either, they really do suck without getting upgraded.

Oh shit. Yeah the nightfall is the last thing I want to conquer... getting sort of bored so at least SSB is coming out on Friday. I've got my Suros on the last 4 upgrades... It hurts to see that the stuff people are getting on the Raid on Hard (Vex Mythoclast) is like an entire new class of weaponry... I feel left out.

Derek™ Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Anyone wanna nightfall today? I still haven't done it this week. I can try it with you, but I'm still 26 and die pretty quickly. Batman can probably carry my weight if he's online. Do you know if the Destiny servers are back up and running right now? I was told they crashed for quite a while last night.
