Re: Bungie - Destiny

I always thought of Atheon as being more like a Hermapholite

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Atheon is a dude. Think about the fight.

Atheon comes out and just starts shooting off his gun all over the place until he can't move anymore. Then he's exhausted and stuck in place until he recovers and starts shooting off again.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

So who's ready for some Crota action this week/weekend? We need a 6th since my brother essentially lives in the city with his girlfriend.

If Cruz plays we just need a 6th. Perhaps Ice can pry Justin away from the Division.

I'm kind of torn on this update. While I'm glad I'll be able grind for an adept fate bringer, it stinks that it will be obsolete in a few months.

I should be on tomorrow. We are probably looking at 5 or so months before the next Destiny anyway, so I'll get what I can get.

it should be easy to pry him away from The Divisoin, because he is playing Ghost Recon

Nothing official, but I think it is pretty much guaranteed that it is coming to PC as well.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Abyss - same but with wizards added (?)

Bridge
Bridge: Starts the same, except once you kill the gatekeeper a statue by the door lights up. once you get 5 people across and 5 gatekeepers killed the bridge is complete. 6 swords spawn at the middle area, then thrall and knights come out and you go HAM. eventually gatekeepers come out. kill gatekeepers to finish charging up the rest of the statues. no ogres or wizards.
EDIT: bridge is complete meaning you don't need to hold the platforms to get the last guy across the bridge stays. makes it easier on him since he's not fighting a horde all by himself.

Deathsinger challenge mode is
via Reddit
Spoiler:
kill all adds to make the deathsinger scream in fear, she will spawn ogres and knights outside by crota's spawn. Kill all of those and she will begin singing the lithergy, a sword bearer will spawn. kill him and use the sword bearer sword to kill Ir Yut to complete the challenge.


Crota challenge mode
Spoiler:
Crota Challenege: Must have a different sword bearer each time and cannot pick sword back up if dropped. Also enrage time is 10min Oversoal spawns each time he is downed and must be destroyed. Think monitors in Vosik encounter.

Spoiler:
Crota- starts same for the safe room- Once in the main area you cannot stand on ledges anymore. After each Crota drop (kneel) and sword damage Oversoul activates. You can still go into safe room after each phase. after 2nd damage phase ogres spawn. Can be done in 3 sword phases possibly 2 if tethers or extra damage buffs work when hitting with sword. [Challenge]- Cannot pick up sword twice...

Re: Bungie - Destiny




Thus begins the conversation about our next adventure together. There will be so much more to say before we reunite the Guardians to reclaim their city from the most dreaded threat it has ever faced. Fortunately, we’ll have all summer long to dive into the details.

This is a new beginning for every player. We know you have questions about the worlds you’ll explore, the enemies you’ll fight, the powers you’ll master, and (as Cayde promised) the loot you’ll earn. All will be answered in the weeks and months to come. It should be a hell of a ride.

At this moment, our focus is the story we’re telling in Destiny 2. Up next, we’ll take a look at the gameplay. Your first opportunity to see Guardians in action will happen on May 18. We hope to have you all in the audience for the gameplay reveal livestream.

This summer will be your chance to get your hands on a controller. You’ll be invited to help us prepare for the launch of Destiny 2 by joining an open Beta. Players who pre-order will be the first to jump into action, but we’ll be calling on all Guardians to give their feedback.

There will be so many other stops to make on the road to September 8. The journey that leads to Destiny 2 will circle the globe and span the solar system. We’ve only fired the first shot.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Well the trailer explains why none of our loot is carrying forward. I guess they attacked the Reef and the Iron Temple as well.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

so Osiris and Rasputin themed expansions

and in case you didn't see the synopsis

Humanity's last safe city has fallen to an overwhelming invasion force, led by Gary, the imposing commander of the brutal Red Legion. He has stripped the city's Guardians of their power, and forced the survivors to flee. You will venture to mysterious, unexplored worlds of our solar system to discover an arsenal of weapons and devastating new combat abilities. To defeat the Red Legion and confront Gary, you must reunite humanity's scattered heroes, stand together, and fight back to reclaim our home.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

I have not played since November. Can someone give me a quick run down what has changed? Any new weapons or armor that are sought after? Should I still hoard my exotic engrams.

From what I gathered on reddit, I just saw that some strikes and raids have been updated.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

This most recent update is sort of a victory tour. They have upped the difficulty's of the raids to reflect the max light of 400. They've also released a record book that touches on achievements that you would have gotten over the course of the three years of Destiny.

Regarding weapons, they are releasing new Adept (Exotic) versions of the raid primaries. You like the Fatebringer, well here is an exotic Fatebringer.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

VoG Challenge modes (according to /r/DTG)

Spoiler:
This post is confirmation of the Challenge Modes, not a Guide or best ways to complete them - I have attached guides already created should you require / be interested. Links below

Templar Challenge COMPLETE - Done by blocking each teleport phase. Relic was only held by 1 Guardian throughout this phase - No other mechanics changed

Teleport can be blocked by Guardians, not just the Relic holder by standing in his teleport 'circle' which appears before he goes

Atheon Challenge COMPLETE - When teleported, each Guardian can only kill 1 Oracle. There are 6 Oracles total on Mars / Venus. This means, the Guardians who DO NOT get teleported initially must go INSIDE the portal (Leaving someone outside to keep it open) to kill an Oracle each to complete the Challenge - In addition to this, if a Guardian dies without killing an Oracle first and you DO NOT kill Atheon, Challenge Failed as that would mean there isn't a 6th for an Oracle

Aegis blast can kill an Oracle
