Yay I played some Destiny!
1.9 Nightfalls with just Hawk and I then Marco jumped in at the end of the second and we did PoE 32 after. I don't remember what all I got... legendary engram from NF1 and a fusion rifle or pulse rifle from PoE big chest.
Thanks a bunch guys, especially Hawk who is a fine sherpa. ;3

Srsly, you have plenty of stuff now. You should start collecting for another class. All you need is a few armor pieces and then the grind to 20 is not that bad. Only reason I don't have my Titan ready to go is I haven't even had enough playtime to get all my NF's and weeklies done, and I've usually prioritized those, if anything because I could run them with friends. I think I will focus my solo time on the Titan now, though. I want to get the Titan up soon.
Don't get me wrong, Warlock is awesome. But at some point having three of the same class is really just being stubborn. I earned nearly every piece of exotic and legendary armor I need for my 2nd and 3rd characters by just playing my first and saving a few things. Mostly I've just saved off class items from engrams and bought only a couple exotics from Xur. I actually enjoy my Hunter now that I've finally built up her subclasses some. (Going from Warlock to Hunter was rough at first. I felt so fragile and clumsy. I'm having fun now, though. Got some cool abilities and exotics. I can't wait to get my Titan up to 20.

PS. I'll be on tonight. Not sure if I'll be in there early or late, or what. My priorities are pretty scattered: PoE34 and/or 35, weeklies, XP for my gear, XP for my Titan lowbie, last 5 gold chests. I'd love to hit ToO, but I'm way too out of practice. I'll just wait on that. Ironic Botanica is coming up again anyway.

I seem to trigger the Weasel error by sidestepping in circles on Anomaly on the ramp that leads to B. It's happened twice and I don't think it's a coincidence. I was waiting for everyone to empty their rockets so I could get three kills with my Swarm so I can get the Machine Lord medal and the remaining machine gun kills (two were required) bounty both done before the daily refresh but NOPE.

Anybody up for a quick Nightfall run tonight... if possible? I'm focusing on Iron Banner, but really would like the XP bonus to the bounties for my weapons and armor upgrades. Also I need 2 strikes for an exotic bounty.

I got some exotic weapon that has a Norse reference in its name, again in the Crucible today. Will upgrade it after Rose Banner is finished. I have already leveled it though.

Grats on your thunderlord! I guess I can see why you thought I meant Thunderlord, because of Thor. But nope! Any other clue relating to its name would give it away so I'll just state it: I got another Gjallarhorn from playing Crucible, this time in Iron Banner on Twilight Gap. So two of those in the space of 19 days. Might give me an excuse to run Dragon strikes to top up Glimmer as I don't like to going into my reserve in my vault too much and I'd be after the Hopscotch Pilgrim anyway.

Didn't get any pvp in last night but ran the NF a couple times. Really just running them for the XP bonus so I can level up some weapons, but RNGesus was with me and gifted my efforts with a GHorn! Huzzah! In before the nerf! (Though not likely to be fully upgraded before the nerf...)

I played some more IB, upgraded some stuff, did some bounties, hung with the guys.
I dropped the group and played a couple games solo to finish out my bounties there at the end.
Sorry guys, fun playing with you, but it's hard to actually have good games while playing with the group for some reason. Possibly SBMM, possibly connection, or just the general flow and distraction of it all. I dunno. I play better solo, though. So I wanted to run a couple solo before bed. Had a few bad games still, but mostly good, and even went over a 5 KDR in one.
I ran Claws, shotgun, and ignite firebolt grenades to get my melee kills bounty and man did that ever work. I generally go with fusion 'nades especially with shotgun, but the firebolts went quite well with melee, and actually not too bad with shotgun, which I still have a little trouble getting into 1HK range with. Good ol' shotgun/melee with grenades to soften them up and chase them out with was great. Hell on one streak I just killed the enemy team one by one at C on Rusted Lands in close quarters as they spawned on that side and came after me. It's a great feeling when the enemy knows exactly where you are and what to expect and you still manage to get the jump on them and kill them. I even went from there to the heavy ammo, chased them into the ammo spawn, killed one immediately then duked it out with one or two more for a bit before killing them and picking up the ammo myself and then using that to get two or three more kills. Man... game is fun when it works.
Also, got rank 3, but alas... have no glimmer. heh I have a feeling I'll be in the exclusion zone tonight... or mebbe gatekeeper. I haven't done that glimmer farm yet.

mannon: good news for you if you plan to pick up TTK eventually. You don't need to level up your Titan through Year 1 content. Once you purchase TTK you'll get a consumable at the tower to instantly boost your Titan to TTK level. Yay!

I'll try to be around, but Hawk can get you there for sure. If it's the three of us again then I suggest we make the following changes: #1. I go get some XP and weapon parts so I can unlock wolfpack rounds on my GHorn. #2. I upgrade that sommabitch! #3. ? #4. Profit!!!!1 Actually I was thinking, (after upgrading) we do change up a little bit. I was thinking we have just one of us focus the boss and the other two focus adds since those Hobgoblins kept killing us. In fact I would say focus on those yellow health bar hobbies when you see them. Try to at least do some damage before they get to us or even kill them before they can get behind the pillar. Just don't even shoot the boss unless there are no hobgoblins in sight. I think if just one person can focus on the boss full time it will make up for the DPS, and really staying alive has to be priority. Both you guys go shotgun so that either can kill the eye for the buff and also have that in case the hobbies get close then I just pop a synth and burn all my rockets on the boss then swap to Icebreaker when I run dry. I can try to keep his attention if possible. Also I'd say switch to weapons of light and pop the bubble in the back so I can get it, but it won't block me from putting damage on the boss from behind the pillar. We group up behind the pillar for the barrier like we were at the end. That was working except we weren't killing the hobbies enough. Also when someone dies, we ignore the boss and go into pure defense. If it's me and my super is up I'll just use it so I can keep putting damage on the boss but I'll try to kill adds to make orbs first. I'd say Marko should do the same and pop his then make orbs unless our supers are full. Then it just depends. I don't know if it's better to go ahead and use it and make orbs or just wait out the res timer. If we lose our friendly neighborhood titan then we just defend and clear adds until he's revivable. I'll bring solar grenades to try to zone enemies. Anyway that's my thinking. I'm sure we can do it, we did quite a bit of damage and survived a good while several times we just have to be coordinated.

1 person with a high impact shotgun (4th hman, for example) kills the eye and us on bubble duty
2 people switch between ads and hitting boss
Our biggest prob was the bubbles not being killed by the one on bubble duty and popping titan bubbles that prevented us from shooting in the bubbles. We should run striker titan instead of bubble for dem orbs and ad killing.
Well, that and me waking up at 5:30, having my boys 2nd bday party with 23 people, then cleaning up, then building his massive train table and set, and then getting to the boss at 1 am.
We'll get em tonight

Or just don't pop titan bubble until we're stuck in barrier without buff.

You can use a Titan bubble a few steps to the side of the middle of the detainment shield so you can use Armour of Light and then break the detainment shields.

Do any of the big wigs at Activision play games? Here's a gem from Eric Hirshberg: "I think the core idea that attracted us to this concept when Bungie first showed it was the idea of taking some of the best elements of MMOs and putting [them] into the adrenaline rush that is first-person shooters. It was totally unproven that you could do that..." Link.Was he born yesterday or something? Borderlands was released in 2009 for a start and even Bungie took some of the big Youtube personalities who were from Borderlands anyway. Rumours around Bungie announced clamping down on network manipulation in Trials when King Gothalion became a victim when every non-Youtuber was complaining left, right and centre for ages.
