Ah, so that's why I ended up decrypting a lvl 10 Mob Justice last night. Super helpful. Thanks

Maybe that is where I got it...but Tess has given me two Armor pieces at "10" so I probably made the mistake of whom actually gave it to me. Pretty cool looking gun and last night I checked and it does have a "Lore" button at the bottom so it is the same one.

Tess doesn't have weapons, only armor. All of the armor pieces are called the "Optimacy" set.

Is there anything special about them or some "Bonus" feature for wearing them?

Nope.

All armor has 2 of the following 3 stats that you can select: Mobility, Resiliency (Armor) and Recovery stats.

Sets are geared towards one of the 3 above. Use what works for you.

Trials doesn't start until Friday, and it will be the Survival game type. Use the Mida Multi-tool as your primary, as everyone else will.

My suggestion would be to wait until tomorrow night since it's only active Friday-Monday.

Also, you can't do trials unless you have a group of 4. there is no matchmaking and it's 4v4 now, not 3v3 like it was in D1.

Not sure why no one answered your question, but Trials doesn't start until tomorrow.

We tried Nightfall last night and failed twice. We just ran out of time taking a bit long in that room with the Ghost decrypting and the final Boss where we just struggled getting Heavy Ammo. We were at 272, 278 and 281. We'll try again tonight but it felt like we were all 265. On the bright side we only have two Adventures left on IO and that's done.

I must've had the greatest pick up fireteam ever, because we were able to clear this Nightfall fairly quickly. Definitely took a couple tries, but it wasn't the worst thing in the world. They certainly were carrying my sorry ass through it, though. That final boss is some nonsense.

That's a shit strike to begin with, and having it as the Nightfall just makes it that much more...shit.

Thanks Cruz for the video...yea, we missed a ton of those anomalies, probably 4-5 in the first part and several in the dark room. Just the 10 in the Dark Room is 5 minutes like it states. Will try again tonight and this will help. Thanks again for posting.

Tried crucible - fucking hated it!

Either I get lucky by getting the drop on someone, or they get lucky by getting the drop on me. Either way, it didn't feel earned, just felt cheap. But then that's how most competitive multiplayer feels to me.

I don't disagree with you. D2's PVP is all about staying with teammates and teamshooting. You can be successful as a flanker, but just as often the other team is watching the flank and will get you 3 on 1. And if your teammates suck...good luck.

We needed to clear the nightfall with at least five minutes on the clock to get the rat king weapon and we did it on this week's nightfall..the key is knowing every 30 seconds time thing...and each member having the riskrunner exotic. That weapon is amazing this week since everything is arc damage...esp the final boss...
