    Re: Destiny

    Getting to 100% as a Hunter wasn't really that bad tbh. The Telesto is really fun to use, but it can be inconsistent at times from what I seen. Still gotta get used to fusion rifles.

    Time to test out the Thorn

      I tried it this morning and was missing well placed shots at fairly close ranges. I could barely finish anyone off with it. As soon as I switched back to Palindrome, everything was fine. I think Bungie is so terrified of Thorn becoming OP again that they have turned it into a glorified pea shooter.


      Probably feared it terrorizing ToO. Which it would have.

        Honestly Thorn would be decent if it weren't for the ghost bullets. This is a problem with all HCs but it's most prevalent on TLW and Thorn.

        I used Thorn a little bit so far and was able to kill with it but it was so inconsistent in terms of which bullets hit that I couldn't use it anymore.

        Thorn wouldn't be an issue in Trials anyway because the DoT it does is so insignificant that it wouldn't really win you any gun fights.

          Had a nice night finishing the newest exotic quest. Did the nightfall and got a 385 exotic helm (Glasshouse). Plus a couple higher light raid weapons and the Outbreak itself, went from 379 to 382 in a few hours. Will try out the gun tomorrow; people I was with didn't give it the most rave reviews.

            Re: Destiny

            Outbreak outclasses almost all other weapons on Vosik in the raid. Including a most heavies, both exotic perks on it affect Vosik, the swarm and mites. The only drawback IMO is the nanomachine swarm proc has a cooldown.



            Side note AKSIS: isn't considered fallen in the game. The gun doesn't do bonus damage to him (Why? Because Bungie, and i think ToM being god in KF ruined it)...but there are so many other heavy hittin options on him it doesn't matter. I switch to Dark Drinker personally when I get to phase two of Aksis.

              Yeah Optimus Prism is easily one of the best exotics out right now, especially for the raid. Dunno who would say otherwise. The only drawback is that it IS an exotic, so you can't use it alongside some of the heavies/specials, and that Aksis doesn't count as a fallen for the perk purposes.

                I doubt I'd run it anyways. Swords are ridiculous on the last Aksis phase. But yeah, Outbreak is incredibly efficient in both Vosik phases. It's also a blast to use.

                Anyone complaining about it is just doing it for the sake of complaining.

                  Re: Destiny

                  After 3 days of trying to find a group that was together enough to do it, I finally downed Aksis. And I got a single auto rifle for doing it.

                  Ahh, RNG.

                  On the very plus side, without telling me or putting it in their LFG post at all, they'd done all the monitors. So I have that quest now.

                    Finally got my Warlock flawless after three fails last weekend. Got the adept Pulse (my three other adept weapons were scouts). Went to clean up some PvP bounties from the week and finally got a Matador with close to perfect range perks. Great day yesterday.

                      I dunno how you guys go flawless so often, haha. Me and a few of my buddies try, and we're all pretty good at crucible, but we can never crack 7 wins. I enjoy playing trials just to get gear at 5 and 7 wins, but flawless is just on another level.

                      Congrats on that pulse. I've been slaughtered with it the few times I've run into it.

                        I'll be 1000% honest. I don't really go flawless as much as I am taken flawless. I have a k/d around 1 usually. But I play with guys that are REALLY skilled at PVP. I've seen them win 1v3s when they had no business. They were lethal with snipers when they were the meta and now that Matador is OP they are unstoppable about 98% of the time.

                          I don't have Matador and the little bit of Trials I played this weekend was miserable because of that gun.

                            Yep, in the new meta of PVP not having that weapon puts you behind a little bit. In just the few hours I've had it the difference between it and every other shotgun is quickly apparent. I smell a nerf incoming.

                              Yeah, I ran a Party Crasher last year, but once I got a Matador with rifled barrel to drop, it's all I've run when I use a shotgun. I typically use sidearms though, as they are ridiculously strong just outside of shotgun range so you can neutralize rushers fairly easy. I just have more fun with them too.

                                Ripped through the Outbreak Prime quest in about 3 hours today with some randos. *** **** this gun is fun. I feel like I'm using something special when I use it. Not enough guns in Destiny feel that way.
