    Its a glorified action shooter. Only thing you are missing is the required grind you must go through to unlock good gear. The game is fun, but there's nothing about the experience that makes it unique.

        That's a beautiful piece of machinery.

          I agree that hand cannons are probably a bad idea for PvP, but I don't think ARs are the end all be all. Since I've gotten the Stranger's Rifle that's the only weapon I use and it works pretty well for me.

            Felt like a graphically fancy Borderlands to me when I played the demo (that's not a bad thing to me.). Did the story turn out to be good since they spent so much making it?

              That was my first Exotic. Not a hand cannon person but I do use it on strikes. Close to unlocking "Lucky Aces". It sounds bad *** I'll give it that.

                Finally got my Titan up to 26 after leveling up my Queen's Chest and Saint-14 exotic helm.

                Now for the final upgrades I need Ascendant Shards. Where's the best place to farm such things? Tiger Strikes?

                  Now that we can't get them from breaking down Legendary loot I would say public events. The first gold tier event (which is basically completing it without effing up) you complete for the day is guaranteed to give Ascendant Materials. After that whether or not you get them is random. While you could do strikes too I think it would be more time consuming. There's a link a few pages back to site where you can keep track of what public events are about to happen and where.

                    Public events are your best bet.

                    Here's a pretty good tutorial on shards and energies. It is a little outdated though since legendary items no longer give you those shards/energies.

                      I hadn't played in almost a week due to Shadow of Mordor. First 10 minutes playing last night and had 3 blue engrams drop so things were looking good. I had yet to ever run a weekly heroic as the people I run with a lot always finished it early in the week and don't wanna be that guy asking them to run it again with me while they get no reward. One of them offered to go through it with me and show me the ropes. I accepted, and the Last Word dropped at the end.

                      We actually had some problems with the cheese spot described earlier. The boss and phalanx ended up right top of us while we were in the little cheese hole and would not move. Luckily the ramp above you has split in the middle of it that you can barely aim through and we were able to get down his last quarter of life through the small slit.

                      I had been losing motivation because of the RNG. Now it's renewed.

                      Sounds bad *** indeed. I've never heard of it and a quick Google turned up zero results on all exotic lists. What is Lucky Aces?

                        Legendary items still give you shards and energy, only queen's items don't.

                          It is purty indeed. Your avatar spins it on their finger when they switch weapons and when going full auto (yes it's an auto hand cannon) goes all "shoot out at high noon" old western single action revolver style and kicks the hammer with the other hand instead of pulling the trigger.

                            Far from it, the story is about as barebones as it gets.

                              A good exotic or legendary gun exudes me and I can't figure it out. I was able to get Zombie Apocalypse heavy weapon from a legendary engram but the purple engrams are few and far between. I have not gotten an exotic bounty yet either.

                              I guess I will grind the vanguard rep till I get up to rank 3 and I will try Shadow Price out. I have yet to try the raid as well. I want to try it with my level 27 warlock. Kabrule77 is my psn if anyone wants to play it.
