Question.

Can you still run Winter's Scourge mission to farm exotic engrams with three of coins? Thought they implemented a cool down period to prevent this, but read an article this morning from a couple weeks ago about people doing this and getting around 10 exotic engrams an hour.

This is the mission where you whittle the boss down then kill him and yourself with a rocket and spawn back outside the room to repeat the process.

Don't think this is possible anymore. There is a 15 minute cooldown (approx) after you get the 3oC to drop an exotic.

Hmm. This article suggests otherwise. Need someone from Planet Destiny to step in and clarify.

6 bombs to be thrown instead of 3 on Vosik
half closed doors for saferooms (LOL, like I wasn't using kneepads already)
monitors (2 large ones) need more damage to destroy

spider tank drops in front of Zamboni ramp you need to bring the parts up on

SIVA turrets on Aksis first phase (gone for second phase)
phase 2 has multiple (9?) servitors with 7(?) bombs needed for DPS phase

and hard mode has just been beat in under 45 mins

Well, I guess my video on horn upgrading will never see the light of day. They fixed that before I could tell anyone beyond the daggers.

Oh well, maybe all my new purple horns will be in the kiosk...

And no they are not. I still have all my purple horns, but they have not been added to the kiosk.

Crap....I thought I was starting to do good getting gear at 377-380....391..Wow.

I'm glad I socked away a lot of Blue & Legendary engrams though and so far the Legendary are scaling around 1-5 above current level. I moved all three of mine up around 375-377 from 370. Even the Forge dropped higher gear which was a good relief. Just got to figure either infuse the older good stuff or roll with the new.

I have yet to do a nightfall in RoI. They should really add matchmaking to it since you no longer get kicked to orbit for wiping.

Maybe I'll just keep skipping nightfalls.

I'm sticking to The Forge.....

Last night we went in with the intent of taking down the Captain (assassination) and ended up staying with four others for almost an hour and a half....

Came away with....
(3) Ghosts...all above 379 and one even a Blue
(1) Chest pc at 380
(2) Artifacts...all Blue and above 378
(1) sniper rifle at 379

...yea it's not 385-390 gear but it's better than a load of coins and I can use this stuff right away.

So here we go with the Report this week.

Xur is located in the lounge, so you only have to bother with him if you really really want his crap this week. Yeah, I'm giving you a preview already. This is not a good week.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CvR_lBHVUAADOcy.jpg

The Engram this week is for LEGACY Helmets. For now, I'm going to play optimist here and assume last week was not just for hard mode coming, but part of a new rotation. Time will tell. But for this week, don't buy this.

For the Titan, it's Immolation Fists. Ummmm they're gauntlets. You probably landed a pair last week. You'll probably never use them.

For the Hunter, it's the Skyburners Annex helmet. Make lots of orbs! Another one you probably never use.

For the Warlock, it's The Stag helmet. OK, I know you never use this!

The weapon this week is Hawkmoon. Best option out of the bunch by far. Sorry chase.

Ornaments:

Heart Of Gold for Truth. Want a gold rocket launcher? Here ya go.

Fallen Assassin for Trespasser. Ummmm it's ugly. Best way to describe it.

So there we go, a very lackluster week for Xur after the excitement of last week. 3 crap armor pieces, a legacy engram and a Hawkmoon.

Stay tuned for the video report coming right up.

Tha now for report. Unfortunately I wasn't able to hit the Xur shop last week.

I went to the Forge last night with my Titan got several bounties done and leveled up dead orbit & vanguard. When I turned one in the reward was a "Blast from the past".....

Ugh. Was hoping for another armor or weapons engram. I'm still sitting on 80+ 3oC so I literally have nothing to buy. I'm sitting on 500 strange coins, and the way they are dropping in crucible I'll probably have 600 by next week. Hopefully the engram makes a return next week.

Afor those who care about this stuff



Upcoming changes to Silver Dust
There has been some great feedback about the Silver Dust Economy. Here is a preview of what is coming.
Some changes are coming to Eververse and you'll see these begin to roll out in small steps, beginning with an upcoming patch.
We are currently working on several changes to the Silver Dust economy to improve the player experience. We want to ensure that players who are completing Rise of Iron’s pinnacle challenges feel rewarded for their success. With this patch Trials, Wrath of the Machine, and Iron Lord Armor Ornaments will no longer require Silver Dust to apply. The Silver Dust requirement for applying Exotic Weapon Ornaments will remain, as the Silver Dust required for application is provided by the Radiant Treasure box.
Year 1 and Year 2 Iron Banner armor found in Dusty Iron Engrams and on activity completion of Iron Banner matches was incorrectly dismantling into Legendary Marks. With the patch, these items, when dismantled, will now yield 1 Silver Dust.
These changes are being made to promote a positive player experience as well as accommodate future changes and balances to the Eververse and Silver Dust economy which we will reveal in our winter release.
