i've given up on exotics for the moment. have had a boat load open at my LL or 1 below. Going to keep the few I get now til I hit 400 - and decrypt them then - at elast then they will open at 400 and they will be infuesment fuel to get my favoured weapons to 400.

So at 400, exotics are all 400? I ask as I remember exotics giving you 334's from 335's.

that is what i have read on Reddit. I've no characters at 400 so I can't confirm whether it is true myself.

They certainly don't seem to be helping me get to 400 light, so I may as well store them in case.

My lowest is my ghost currently, 381, highest is 388 where I've got a few pieces (helmet, chest, and secondary weapon).

Edit: I was wrong, I do have a ghost at 385, which is my current lowest.

It's only become an issue since going past 390. Before that you get stuff decrypting at 390 from factions, vanguard, yer one in the reef, PoE...etc so no one item really lags behind.
Between this and the NF deciding to only give me coins the LL advancement has slowed to a crawl. Roll on IB

Yup, it seems so haven't had one below 400 yet. My 2 alts jumped almost to 398 from the hand me downs. All raid/trials/shaxx weekly bounty stuff/AF ghosts all drop at 400 aswell.

Just over the 365 hump now thanks to the archon forge. Only 366 but gear is decrypting up to 370 now so can start on that. Didnt realise the loot was so plentyful at the forge till i got a good group and ran about 20 offerings last night.
Engrams were raining out of the sky!

So im gonna concentrate of faction packages and strikes with the odd few forge runs to try get to 380.

Also kept using Sunsinger sub class so its nearly levelled now,ill most likely move straight to arc once it is and get that going. Be nice to have all the warlock sub classes levelled by the time i get to 400 and start a new character,a hunter i reckon.

Im still a raid newb so at some point im gonna try a get through them. Hard to find people for VoG these days?

Where you went wrong was quitting in the first place... Jesus doesn't like quitters.

My rage quitting probabilty can be accurately calculated

As it was happening, I did think it would be a good system to put in place. You quit? Fine, no new game for you til that one finishes....

However, I was also put into matches against the same 6 man fire team 3 times (seperate to the game I tried to quit), including once after the team's we're broken up to find a better match.

Also, not one game I played was close, blow outs one way or the other. Match making felt very broken that day.

Anyone able to give me a quick synopsis of the game?

Love the ganeplay but I feel like I'm running like a headless chicken.

I see others online running around but they seem to be doing the same thing?

No worries lad. Beard disappered that fast he'd give Jason Bourne a run for his money.

That NF sounds horrible.

nevelator

Aksis challenge mode seems to be

supercharge on each teleport

- should be fun!

gimli2112

NF shouldn't be too bad. There's a cheesey spot where all three of you can hang out and just watch for the spawning minotaurs. I've just jinxed myself now haven't I?

Seems ages since they put burns in a NF.

IB this week, Raid Challenge Mode this week. Why would you be bothered doing a NF? Can get 400 rewards playing Control

I concur.

Won't be going near Nightfall. Time far better spent playing IB or Raiding. (or playing Mass Effect on Xbox One YEAH!)
