That rocket launcher is the one from the launch video, it looks so badass.

Man that Hunter chest is exactly what I need right now.

Is the weekly strike that gives you strange coin matchmade? Or do i need my own fireteam?

You need to have your own fireteam. Keep in mind that you can onle have One, 1, Uno, Hana, Ichi, Un, Einz exotic equiped. I personally feel that it is better saved for a primary you enjoy because primaries are only kinetic type of damage, and you can get heavy and secondary in a damage type to get bonus damage.

You are allowed to have one exotic weapon AND one armor piece equipped at a time, but that is it. Can't you have an exotic rocket launcher in inventory and switch out? So technically, if someone likes it, they could buy it and equip it when want to switch up other weapons. Etc. For bosses, or something along those lines.

Yes, one exotic weapon and one exotic armor peice.

I'm saying save your coins for a primary. Unless you're lucky enough to get 23 strange coins in a week, you may not have enough coins to get the exotic weapon next week that may be the primary you want.

That rocket launcher is a good weapon, but I think it something to purchase when you have extra coins laying around :p

I fucking hate getting these. I wish they had a way to convert the different currencies in the game. Also on that, I wish you could store glimmer in the vault - I hit the 25K limit yesterday, and now don't get anymore for anything, its all just being wasted. You can buy strange coins from xur

I am trying to pile house banners and things like that as a sort of "stackable money" - it can be put into glimmer if necessary, but can be stored in the vault.



So you can have 2 exotic weapons right? Just making sure I fully understood you.
You cannot have 2 exotic weapons equiped. you can have 2 exotics weapons in your inventory though. Also keep in ming that when you switch weapons from your inventory, you lose at least 50% of your ammo. Which makes switching to a rocket launcher useless IMO.

glimmer, splintmetal and spiritbloom this week I think

[f0rge]

The weekly strike not being matchmade is the reason I dont have enough coins and probably never will. Such a stupid system in a game that makes playing with randoms nearly impossible.

[f0rge]

I thought they already disabled the ability to buy coins with glimmer/spinmetal/etc like an hour after Xur showed up this moring? That seems to be what reddit is saying.

You can only do the material exchange once. So you can only get 3x strange coins from xur from material exchange.

As far as the hour thing, I'm at work so I have no idea :p

People were exploiting it, now it's gone. Coins were 2500 glimmer, people with 25k glimmer were creating and deleting multiple characters and could exploit up to 10 total coins since glimmer is shared across all characters.

Stupid assholes ruined it for the rest of us.

[f0rge]

They'll probably fix it, but I seriously doubt it'll be this week.

Its an exploitation. Bungie intended to give a player 3 easy strange coins, but people being people found a way to cheat it.

[f0rge]

Seems like it was 3 per week per character.

[unsurety]

Found this piece of crap while playing control.





It said I found Hawkmoon. I was zombie'd out from playing so much, so I was like, who's Hawkmoon? When I saw the reward screen, I nearly crapped my pants. I was jealous of my friend finding a purple shotgun the day before, but that was short lived.
