2 new end games, the Prison of Elders and Trials of Osiris, not much detail on either apart from confirming Trials will be on every weekend and PoE will be different in some way each week (modifiers I'm guessing). Looking forward to a pvp end game myself that actually sounds competitive.

Trials is weekends only? Is that definite? Won't be able to paly it if that's the case

Was there no details given on what Prison of Elders actually involves? Is it PvP or PvE?

It is PvE, but that has been known since the start. Trials is the PvP end game activity, PoE is the PvE end game activity.

Nothing has been said on what it actually involves. They will reveal that May 6th.

Apparently there will be an announcement May 8th about some secret they have been keeping.

I even put Destiny in Bold in my one, cause I am mad altogether :pac:

And cheers to Retro for updating the 1st Post so we can now hopefully see players join up a bit easier instead of being just in the "group"

Good idea Dreadhead. Just changed my sig there.

Heard that exotics are upgraded with unlock/xp as said above but legendary stuff needs to be reforged and it'll be reset with perk being rerolled.

Holy **** - does that mean you can level up your crucible rep with commendations earned from New Monarchy?

Essentially yes, and I'm assuming Visa Versa if you are rocking a NM Cloak/Towel/Bangle

What's Mida like?

It's alright, if you want to use a non-elemental primary.

I find it has very few 'best use' cases though, primarily soloing the Abyss and for very skilled hunter players in PvP when coupled with say Radiant Dance Machines.

It's by no means a terrible exotic but it's not top tier either.

Of course I'm sure some people will say how fantastic it is and how it's one of the top 5 in the game, but it's not in my opinion.

The way I look at it is when would I ever say to myself "Ah yes, I must use the Mida here, there's no elemental burn and I don't want to use IB/Gjhallahorn/Thorn/Vex" etc for what ever reason.

It's probably in the top 10 exotics.... but barely... just barely by the skin of it's teeth

Here's some guns it's better than:
SGA, Dragons Breath, NLB, Hard Light, Monte Carlo, Pocket Infinity, Necrochasm

Its great for the increased movement speed and for stun locking enemies, but wouldn't take it over a Vex or Red Death atm.

Anyone know how he was hitting Crota so quick.?

Was watching his stream a bit the last night.he was about 6 hours trying to do the normal solo Crota.

Generic Dreadhead

He's using lot's of Orbs to get his super, you can do a normal ground slam using R2 and then cancel the animation by using the super immediately after you hit the R2 slam

I totally misread that and thought you were saying NLB was better than Mida.

<puts down axe>

NLB is better than NOTHING. NOTHING I tell you.

I really need a void primary.

Your choices are very limited. Atheon's Epilogue (I don't have but I don't rate it) or Word of Crota which is a beast. Either way you'll have to do a raid on hard mode.

AbusesToilets

Word of Crota is fairly meh, having just completed the Thorn bounty again, it was such a step down from handcannons like Thorn or Timur's.

Doing both, have every multiple times but neither of the Void primaries.
