Yea I was about to log and looked at my quests quickly to see if I could theoretically bang out an iron banner and get like 3 bounties.

It is unplayable now without a premade. Holy **** people just do nothing for 2 mins and if their team is behind they quit.

Just yet another oversight by Bungie.

Ran hot and got up to +21 kills playing Control, the 257 purple fusion rifle does much better than a 224 shotgun, did feel a little like cheating... Until some ****er no scoped me.

yeah fusion rifles are pretty great for pvp

lol 2nd match i play i have a 6 on my team

kinda disappointing

me and larry playin iron banner if anyone wants to join

I'll get on in a bit

Thats fine. You should hit 20 pretty quick if you put in even a little grinding. I can also help you with all your missions so you can run through them much quicker if you ever need.

Send me a friend request and I'll hit you up when you're online.

Already sent you a friends request last week

Meh. Next time I won't mess with the streak, got on this morning and ran into 28's and 29's and I'm back down to 4... Annoying when some 29 runs into your machine gun fire and stabs you in the face.

I see that iron banner armor does not turn into ascendant shards

GT?

I'm wesrwood on there lol

finally figured out how to start grinding stuff for upgrades. Took me a bit, but up to lvl 27 now.

Explain? I've been stuck at level 26 in what seems like forever

do public event daily

do the daily story on the highest level you can

do strikes

I finally got enough marks to buy faction gear (Legendary) for a new helmet (jumped a whole level), grinding missions/strikes for shards, etc. and then been farming areas for relic iron, spirit bloom, etc.

ty guys will try these

Any tips on beating the weekly heroic with two people?

My buddy and I tried it and failed 3 times unable to beat the Arkon Priest. We're both level 28 and have 2 void damage weapons.

a few cheap options are available.

1: hide under the platform to the right of his capsule, go right to the back down a slope. hard to get hit in here, and you can take potshots at him. dangerous if you do get hit by a sniper vandal or shank, since being revived spawns you outside the hiding hole usually. (we did this but had trouble surviving)

2: stay at the entrance to the encounter, one of you super far back. the other pop round the corner, fire off a few sniper round and retreat before taking fire. far back person can sneak in and revive in emergency (best with a invisible bladedancer ). not tried this one.

3: ultimate cheese (we did this lol) one person stays super safe - must never die all at once! the others go full assault until they get downed, at which point leave and join fireteam again.

So if a player leaves a fire team mid Strike and re-joins they are able to get back in at the same point? Would they lose out on xp or bounty rep?

Any xbox1 people around wanna run through some strikes with me?

I'll do it once football ends

Word. I'll send you an invite to my fire team then.

I'm on
