Is that a specific fragment or for having all 50?

I'm only missing 3 but none of the 50 on the list are Insight

Some on Reddit are saying they have it as they have all 50, but I have all 50 and either 1 is on another character or is glitched so I'm only showing 49/50

I wonder did you have a fragment bug out on you like I and another poster on here did.

I have 49 of them (need the CoO T3 from this week) but only 48 are listed for my Titan in the game. I'm convinced I never got the fragment for the dreadnaught bounty completion (fragment 50)

Delete all three characters and start again. It's the only way to be sure.

Wasn't there a line like this in Aliens?

No no no...... pass all his good gear to me then he restarts his characters :P

Mitch Connor

The fact there is no way, at all, to find out what Fragments you do have on a character level is really frustrating.

As I say, I'm convinced mine bugged out but the only way to be sure is to hunt down all 50 again. Which is a fecking joke.

SolvableKnave

So glad I've concentrated on the Titan only. That and not being arsed to go collect them all twice more.

Man, was just thinking back on the drops last night over the 2 Oryx Runs (and 1 Sisters Run), had a look at my item manager on Bungie.

320 Pulse
319 Scout
313 Auto Rifle
310 Harrowed HC
310 Normal HC

That's some serious Haul

EDIT: Oh and a 320 Helm of course

All I can say is thank god for SRL, did hardmode golgoroth + sisters (including the exotic chest) last night, 4 shards and 2 titan cloaks (312/315), the cloaks go well with the same 2 I got last week

Should have known this myself. I have gear that's xp maxed but not enough mats to level. Mr Quartermaster shall be receiving half my Legendary marks this evening.

Fyi the vanilla Destiny CE on ps4 is coming up as a lightning deal on amazon in a little while for £10, works out at €20.50 inc shipping. While it doesn't have TTK, it does have TDB and HoW.

They should make Vanilla Destiny (minus the PS Plus Required Content - Like Say Strikes, Year 1 Raids etc) free. It would simply prove to further their fanbase

Basically just give missions, patrol and say 100 games of Crucible (on your account)

Actually probably yeah :pac:

So I read over on Reddit the post about Monte Carlo "wrecking it" in crucible, and the guy talks about using his motes for XP in passing. I, like one other day 1 guardian, DID NOT KNOW THIS!!! I blew about 250 across 3 characters last night. Straight to top spot on the list of stupid things I didn't know.

Edit: Didn't give XP to my incomplete subclasses though

I'm really liking the Beta Gear Manager on Bungie.net with the Maximise Light thing, hopefully they'll add more to this since I have iOS and can't use the better item managers

Oh, I like that! Great for getting alt character raid ready in 1 click!

I'm really getting pissed off with the destiny infusion mechanic.
Trying to infuse anything is completely pointless, when the system is designed to only infuse to ~80% of the original light level.
It's a really **** system, the only reason they've put that in place is to deliberately slow progress.

The reduction from infusion serves no purpose.

There was a post somewhere on reddit about this, generally legendaries can go upto 7 points, unless your infusing a 280 with a 310, can jump higher. But yes the exotic stuff takes 20% off compared to legendaries. I tend to store stuff up in preparation for infusion and use the app to see the least amount of jumps.

I only need 1 more Calcified Fragment to continue the ToM quest now. If any Xbox guys are doing the raid challenge tonight, can you drop me a message?

Infusing exotics is a joke altogether.
7 points is not a lot really. I'm looking at the light level calculator and trying to upgrade my 295 1000 yard stare to 313 is taking 3 infusions.

There's no real reasoning why its capped at 7 points, its another mechanic added there to slow down progression and force you to grind raids etc.

End rant!

Infusing legendaries that are within 6 light of each other will result in 100% infusion. 301 Hung Jury and a 307 raid scout will result in a 307 Hung Jury. Anything above that 6 light point difference will get you 80% of the way there. 300 and 310 results in 308.

Exotics will only ever jump 80% of the way, though there is obviously a lower threshold. Not sure what this is though.

I suppose a lot of its down to whats available aswell. At the moment I've a lot of 310 primaries , from getting 310 exotic's and then either keeping them or infusing up other weapons. But unless I start beating oryx on hard or going 9-0 on trails, I don't think there is any way of getting higher levels.

Last Iron Banner I had a ton of ghosts for fuel, from SRL this time I've gotten plenty of helmets/cloaks, we are all just slaves to what bungie gives us

In lieu of ToM, what weapons (specific or type) are good for tackling Oryx?

For Oryx I run TOM, 1000YS and Raid RL.

Can't go wrong with high impact snipers. The 1000 yard stare from vanguard has triple tap on it and good impact.

The raid pulse should hold up well. 1000ys or spindle. Raid machine gun on ads, or possibly sleeper simulant for stunning Oryx.

Any word as to a reward for completing calcified fragments? This week should see most people finish out the 50
