I haven't gotten anything yet...

Not gonna lie, seeing the dude at the very bottom getting stuff and I'm up towards the top not getting anything is kind of annoying.

We might have to organize certain days of the week or something for these raids.

I feel like the chances of getting rare and legendary items must scale with your level.

I remember at like 15 you see only greens, then 18 you start seeing blues and somewhere around 24-25 you start seeing the odd purple.

Since you need blues to get from 20-24 and purples to get from 24-26 it sort of makes sense.

I don't see it..

I googled images, and didn't get anything like that in my bundle. Will go to gamestop and try to sort this out

Or get crucible marks/xp? That gear looks sexy from what I can tell

I don't like the PvP in this game...seems too cluttered and disorganized

That would make sense, but then again, I got a legendary engram at lvl 17. The rewards system is equivalent to this

As someone who generally has a KDR lower than 1 and has been as low as 0.2 because the asshole warlock with a 17 KDR kept chasing me down and killing me, I say..

Step four is die repeatedly because your skill doesn't hold up to pros that still are beating their head against the wall in Vault of Glass.

Warlocks really are the master class. It seems like the game was designed for them. I play hunter, and think it is almost as good, but more fun to play.

Then titans are sitting in a corner and eating paste

I've seen more hunters in pvp than any other class so far. I've also seen some very skilled titans.

I think it's balanced fairly well to be honest. It just feels unbalanced for a lot of people because they're missing class or gear/weapon perks that others have.

Right, but we all know the mechanics of the game. Kill lots of small guys, kill big bullet sponge by finding exploit zone/ducking behind cover.

All we really need is knowledge of the exploit zones, and the path to take, because no waypoints :/

There are a bunch of hunters. So many hunters.

Idk - I tried all 3 during the beta, and titan was far more underpowered I found. Could just be me

I concur. Hunter XXXXXXXXX in pvp. Titans are pretty solid in PvP, but I think they are a bit of the underdog due to their agility and not being able to move around as quickly. I think they need to buff up their toughness or increase their agility. Not both, but one or the other.

As far as class balancing goes, other than Titan's being too slow for PvP, I feel they are pretty close. (Hunters got a buff from beta, And they are obviously favored in PvP. Their supers last a bit too long in my opinion.)

When the iron banner is released, Supers are going to be a secondary concern in my opinion.

So you know the mechanics about holding multiple waypoints in pve, hiding from enemies that will wipe the whole run if one person is spotted, and fighting on two different fronts because half if your raid has been teleported somewhere else?

I saw a quote from someone that said they had been playing for five hours and were just exhausted, but they got to a specific part so hopefully it's almost over.

The response was "sorry bro that's the first boss."

There are eight.

Hahaha well if you're lucky (you apparently are) then there's always the chance to get any engram at any level.

I dont mind the loot system, especially since it's backed up by a guaranteed way to work for purples and even gold items. I think it would be sort of lame if we all had legendary and exotic items already, the game's only been out for a week.

WAT

That sounds intense; too intense. 5 hour grinds to get to the first boss of eight. wtf... I think 3 hours is the maximum reasonable time for a raid, a complete raid. Were they all under-leveled for the raid or something?
