solo'ing the maze isn't too hard, especially as a hunter. Took me 5-6 tries to get the layout of the maze more or less memorized. Easy chance at drops each week until they patch. Ended up with raid gloves. My friend got on and we two-manned the bridge part, got shards.

Also, I don't have a Fatebringer, but I DO have Gheleon's Demise scout rifle maxed out from the last iron banner, and it has the same firefly perk that fatebringer does. Granted, Fatebringer hits harder per shot, but well placed headshots with the scout rifle work too.

I didn't even think about IB specific drops... THAT Would make it worth playing.

Yes, I was lucky and got Timur's Lash to drop during the last IB. Actually, I had almost forgotten about it until last night. It has been sitting in the vault collecting dust as I never really got around to completely leveling it up. Since I have a ton of energy right now, decided to pull it out and finished off leveling it up last night. I've decided to keep my 2 hand cannons as my only primaries from before the DLC drop. I figured they will work fine on just about everything but the Hard mode Raid. Now I just need to get a new primary with the higher damage so I can start working on it. I've got the marks, just waiting on a Vanguard commendation to drop.

I have the commendations but I spent all my marks on armor to get to 31. Problem is the Vanguard vendor doesn't really have a gun I want that would be good enough to replace my Devil You Know.

Yep, there isn't much that the Vanguard has that I want as far as primary weapons go. Since I have a Crucible commendation sitting in my vault now, I figured at some point I will run some Crucible to get my marks up so I can buy a weapon from the Crucible Quartermaster. Since I got the new Raid boots already and I've upgraded my Exotic chest piece, I will finish out the bounty for the arm guantlents and I'll buy a helmet from the Vangaurd. That'll put me to level 31 and then it will be the waiting game again with the Raid.

I got a Badger the other day. And then I ranked up in Vanguard and got... another Badger. With the exact same buffs. lol

Oh well, at least I've heard it's a good weapon.

Personally I want a Necrochasm, but that's gonna be a while.

I have 2 badgers as well...
It's ok, but I prefer a scout rifle with a bit faster rate of fire. Like vision of confluence.

Just got No Land Beyond from the nightfall. Wow this gun is strange, I'm also pretty sure it sucks

It's awful in every way.
I haven't sharded it in hopes of them buffing it some how to make it actually usable.

I've heard it's rate of fire is really slow. Of course, it is a 3 round bolt action rifle because you know, hundreds of years into the future we will still be using bolt action rifles in battle.

Anyone wanna run weekly heroic on PS4 today? All the groups I join drop it before we even start

[n2oinferno]

Wooooooooooooooo! So now that I'm noticeably better in pvp, I decided to buckle down and get that Thorn bounty finished. Took me about five hours to get the 500 points needed. Thanks, 77 Wizard! Now on to Xyor.

Any word on House of Wolves? I'm almost level 31 Warlock and already pretty bored of this expansion..no offense to anyone, I love the game it just wasnt enough in my opinion.

A lot of people get paranoid that one character might have corrupt data on the server or somethign that prevents them from getting good drops. I think it's pure paranoia and hearsay, but who knows.

I think I have some sort of bias toward weapons or something as thats mostly what I get to drop. Today I got lucky and had two legendary engrams drop, both machine guns, MG18A Harm's Way and Against All Odds (which seems like a good alternative to Jolders Hammer). Yeah I have three chars already all different classes. Good news is Iron Banner let me get enough gear to get my warlock to 31, so all my characters can be 31 at this point. I also found a sort of loot cave today grinding for glimmer. Think I might do the vault before tonight is over and get some extra shards.
