PvE Nightfall - 13 3oC, 20 SC, 397 gauntlets that helped my Hunter get to 394. Half decent. Saved the best for last, imho. How did you find the nightfall... I've always loved the intensity of the Sunless Cell... especially without radar. I despised it with airborne, but it look fun this week

I've always loved the intensity of the Sunless Cell... especially without radar. I despised it with airborne, but it look fun this week It was easy, especially the boss fight. I used Raze-Lighter and you have enough time to swipe him from behind as he reacts quite slow. One time I managed to corner him into one of the 'shapes' in the middle and just went ham swiping him. Looks like there is a stagger effect. Did the Weekly Heroic, got Omnigul and I got Royal Flush and Days of Iron Ornament from the Radiant Treasure.

I had to work for my radiant treasure last week: dropped me into the Wretched Eye strike right at the boss. Literally. I spawn in, see this big ogre running at me, jump back, bang: void lazered and the other guy died ressing me. Of course, it being a heroic strike, we had an AFKer riding our coat tails I've gotten 3 weapons ornaments: the crappy one for invective (Iconic... something like that), Not a toy for the Zhalo... which is a novelty and I like it (though if they did want to go full on toy, they should have put a big neon orange tip on the barrel, like real plastic toys have) and Heart of Gold for the Truth that is, imho... the best weapon ornament out there and probably the only one I have honestly considered paying for (though you could convince me for the one that bloodies up the Hawkmoon) I delibrately infused it just so I could use it for the Void PVP portion of my thorn bounty

I have never gotten 2 ornaments out of one.

wings You said: "Royal Flush and Days of Iron Ornament from the Radiant Treasure" so that is why I thought you got two Otherwise, there seems some miscommunication here... Yes I got both from one Radiant Treasure. Thought you were asking if it is possible to get more than one Ornament of Iron from other activities or something. I don't overly care over vanity items to make a collection and I read on r/DTG that these are extremely rare.

Yes I think they are quite rare, but good to know that if you get one, you are still getting a weapon ornament as well.

They should have made faction and vanguard packages roll higher... say, 395; I went like a bullet from hell from 365 to 391, and now I just feel stuck in the mud.

I assume they stopped aligned factions (Dead Orbit, New Monarchy, and Future War Cult) at 390 so you could not donate your way to max level. However, this means bounties are of minimal use to those who are 390. I still do some of them being over 390 but I only go for weapons. Crucible might be a good way to progress your light level.

Yeah, but the weapons that can drop up to 400 would be pretty useful I'd imagine.

Regular crucible. All legendary post-game rewards can drop up to 400. Saw 2 or 3 of them yesterday in 5 games. Plus you can work on knocking out the "Shaxxfall" bounty which can also drop up to 400.

The matchmaking is still stupid. Played a game of 3v3 and it was Clash. So Bungie take out Bastion, First Light etc out of regular rotation because the matches take too long, and that just happens when Bungie refuses to find more players in matches because of the strict criteria for skill.

I think it is fair factions don't go that high. Getting to 400 is not really a big deal, it is mostly cosmetic. I am at 398 at the moment, and hope to reach 400 tonight (before titanfall), but if I don't, no biggie.
It is something left to do, and the raid gives plenty of gear, and so does archons forge.
On that note, archons forge is a great way to get higher! Make sure your ghost, artifact and class items are higher than your other gear before you go into a raid/nightfall/exotic engram/shaxxfall (yes I stole it). You will level up in no time.
If you don't raid, it will probably take you a month or so, but that ain't that big of a deal is it?

I guess... I guess I just am annoyed about plateuing in my leveling
got a lot of bounties done... went 0 for 10 with forge visits though... got the broom and the black shader. Got the silver bullet weapon ornament for the Nemesis star that makes it look all silver and shiney.
Did the nightfall... 17 SC... lolololopuke

No, I'm just trying to see if I can do it, sans raid It will cost you too many Strange Coins as the level increase in encypting exotic engrams is too small a difference with light levels to make it worthwhile.
