    Got to rank 3 last night, another crappy 310 artifact. Getting really old now.

    That's the standard reward for rank 3. It's garunteed.

    I know, you'd think they might mix it up a bit. Even my alt alt has shed loads of them. Hopefully after the upcoming update it'll change.

    It's more for newer players to help them rank up. The proper rewards are at rank 5.

    I played Destiny for the first time since last IB last night. 4 games won 3, 1.15 KD with .50 and a ton of deaths in the first game back so not to bad. I did find my aim was way off though.

    Got to rank 2.5 in those four games so should hit 5 by Saturday.

    Is that because you had particular boons. I played it for 4-5 hora yesterday with ateast 10 wins and am only at 2.5. Or just shy of it. It becomes fair monotonous after 4 or 5 hours IMO

    Had Green bounties I picked up since Tuesday and one/two left over from last IB so complex those and turned them in.

    Also have two Brown Bounties completed and need two more heavy kills on the last to finish that.

    Was playing on my GG who is my least favourite Class so happy enough with the KD and WR seen as I was playing Solo.

    You should join in with one of the fireteam later on, time and matches fly when you're in a group. 


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,675 ✭✭✭✭Mitch Connor


    Only really planning on using my Titan and Warlock this time around - have both a quarter of the way through rank three. Have only ran the hunter for three games I think. Won't be able to play on Saturday, and limited time on Sunday so might just be the two toons this time - not that it really matters to be honest.

    I do have 6 bounties ready to hand in on the Hunter, and another 2 I can pick up today - so a chance I could hand in 8 bounties on Sunday and get myself to rank 4, and then it would be just a couple of games to rank 5 on monday. Do-able.

    tbh you'll go from 0-5 in no time once you have the bounties ready. I had about 11 on the hunter last time and after one game was level 3.5 or something. I think that was a Sunday.

    I'm falling in love with my Shadowshot Hunter. Fire it at their heavy while they are there. They may collect, but they wont escape.

    Not too terrible I guess, still tending to be streaky.

    On the plus side, I am wrecking shop with the Fusion at the moment, definitely my favorite gun to use, Meta be damned.

    I had one game last night where I had that invisible bug. I could only kill with supers and grenades. Got a triple kill with the wombo combo when the other team was capturing a point :D You also can't open doors, so got stuck in the inside room of Black shield a few times, waiting for doors to open.

    Not too shabby

    48 grenade kills. God bless The Armamentarium

    198 kills with Invective. Becoming a bit too reliant on that

    Most kills I have with a primary is 19 =/

    Results are a bit meh so far, trying to close out the Shaxx questline, and Mida really held me back - I really don't understand how some people seem to wreck me with it and I can't use it.
    It's really strange, as I like the sights, watching Youtube videos of people using Mida I always wanted one - but I just can't get crits with it.

    Here's my totals so far:

    Wins|Games|Kills|Assists|Deaths|K/d|Ka/d|Victory
    13|21|333|89|238|1.40|1.77|61.90%


    Performance:
    Super Kills|Melee Kills|Grenade Kills|Time Played|Avg Score
    57|38|15|4h 3m 44s|3,390


    Anyway, no more messing around - back to Hawksaw and 1000-Yard Stare :)

    Actually is it possible to pull Clan level data from tDestiny Tracker?
    It'd be great if there was a Clan league!

    You have to use the reticle as a "hat" rather than a pointer; so you want to sit it on top of the opponents head if that makes sense?

    I think that there is some form of clan league coming.

    Not really - from what I could see the other day (had the same type of idea).

    You can view overall stats and can sort via the header stats, but you can't filter out by criteria (min games etc, time last played)

    Also can't compare clans, from what I can see.

    http://destinytracker.com/clans/118535/irish-boards-clan-1

    Could possibly copy data to excel or similar and clean it up and go from there, but it would still only be the basic stats shown.
