I've never had so much trouble with Crota before! We had to Checkpoint at the last moment in the end, after we played it for like what, two and a half hours? It's crazy just how much the game can spike depending on who you play with, I've breezed VOG hard in around half an hour and been stuck on reg VOG with a different team for like half a day.

Xur has never sold exotic boot engrams. You probably got it from a Nightfall.

Ok, thanks. So two things I didn't know or forgotten about (among 50 others that I probably don't know about this game lol), what you said above and evidently nightfall can drop exotic armor for a different class.

While the guns speed makes it better than most non-exotic Handcannons, the fact that the faster you shoot the harder the gun is to aim just makes it like a auto rifle without the bonus of those guns medium - long range. In PVP your guns do far less damage so losing range and accuracy too is just a further blow.

It's great for spray and play in PVE, and there the gun does really high damage which means the loss of accuracy isn't felt nearly as much but I find it's extremely hit and miss on PVP unless I use it like a shotgun to catch them off guard and never take on more than one enemy at once.

Honestly, friend...all of this reads like a failed attempt at trolling. I mean, I hope that's what it is. If you're being serious, and actually believe this stuff yourself, I just feel bad for you. I am not a Destiny vet, nor am i a Destiny noob, but even I know there is no way you (or anyone else) "breezed" through VoG in 30 minutes, so why the need to write something so silly?

I also know how to use The Last Word properly, and get it done with it as well as I get it done with Thorn or Hawkmoon. That is, if the other guy using TLW to its fullest isn't faster than I am. It is a unique weapon with its own characteristics, and it takes time to get used to. By the time you wrote that...I doubt you'd even unlocked the entire thing.

As for the stuff about Destiny's PVP....let me just say that you are not just misinformed...you're being ignorant, and seemingly inclined to make things up. Based on the nonsense you write, I'd say you're better off not playing this game anymore.

I'm putting all of my raid team on notice right now, and you gentlemen know who you are. If you don't get me through the VoG on hard tomorrow in thirty minutes, I'm defriending each of you. You've been forewarned.

Might I ask which of your two previous VoG runs did you manage to make it through in a half of an hour? I'm glad the other three Crota runs weren't as tough as the one today.

Yeah, those guys we ended up doing Crota with were too bubble happy.
Put a bubble here, put a bubble there, I got a bubble, you got a bubble?, my bubble's ready! Where do you want it! Let's all do our bubbles at the same time! Hee hee hee!

Kill Crota! is all you need to know and focus on. If the guys poppin' bubbles just fricken killed more instead of getting boy-in-the-plastic-bubble tans, we would've been done right away.

I know you're being figurative with your time estimations so it doesn't bother me at all, but be careful because some folks might take your numbers literally and jump on the offensive.

I did as a hunter and killed him at the end, though the others were also shooting him.

What's really fun is knee-charging the rocket pod on the tank with Peregrine Greaves. It's a one hit instant kill, and I pulled it off.

Time: 2h 17m 0s [Incomplete]

Thank you to Robert, Andy and Autumn Shroud for the quick nightfalls. Received garbage on the first two runs but got the Bones of Eao on my third run. Time to try and solo Crota.

Pizzamorg's info for VoG:



30 minutes, huh Pizzamorg?

Someone pass me the butter seasoning.

I don't know where to even start with this

It all has to deal with player skill. Someone can be a low level and do way better than a 34 and vice versa.

We have the checkpoint now, at least, wanna try and have a crack at it again? I'm gonna need to buy loads of heavy ammo synthesis but I think we can do it with less bubbles and a better person running sword. Thanks for your help with PoE though, just need to nail down that Nightfall now.

Yeah the amount of butthurt I instil in this thread is hilarious. I don't know why everyone takes this game so damn seriously in here, I have criticisms generated from my own personal experiences of the game but apparently I'm not allowed to. Oh well, if taking my posts to the letter of literal, writing text walls and insults gets them through their day, I'll leave them to it but I'm not about to admit the game is perfect because it simply isn't. I enjoy playing it, but if something frustrates me or could be improved in my opinion, I'm obviously going to write about it. Those posts make for more discussion than me just keeping a diary in here of every time I enjoyed playing, which is most of the time.

[silversnake]

People here don't mind that you criticize the game and have your opinions on it, but when you go around claiming that things are broken when they really aren't, or that level advantages are enabled in regular PVP, or that you spent 30 mins beating VOG HM , it's hard to take you seriously.

[Bizdady]

Down goes Crota solo!! Decided to solo him before the Gjally nerf. I was bit rusty but finally got him down on Normal solo. Think ill give hard a shot next time im feeling bored.

What he said ^

No one here thinks this game is perfect. There are many things wrong with it. But when you straight up lie and blow smoke about certain aspects of this game, people in here will get very annoyed, very fast. It's not hard to make friends in here, but it's even harder to make enemies. You've started on the path to the latter. Not really sure why.
