I got a solar 1KYS from a blue engram that has Triple Tap, Will of Light (+10% damage buff to Taken enemies), and Hot Swap. It also has Viewtac SLR20 as the second option for a scope, aka an iPad.

Yeah, it looks like the 1KYS deals more damage to Taken enemies than my Yasmin. I have both at 310. So I'll do some more testing later or something and then decide which of my three Yasmins I will dismantle/keep (Hot Swap, Life Support, and Firefly on each of their last perks). I'll probably keep the Life Support and Firefly ones.

gosh darn golly gee whiz, how did you get those? I still only have the Quest one... (and am not planning on buying the vendor one) For my two most recent acquisitions, one was from ranking up Vanguard, the other was from a blue engram that Rahool decrypted.

I got a fair amount of sidearms in the mean time so it may be an epic grind to get another 1KYS. I don't usually farm bounties unles I'm close to ranking up, otherwise I will let them complete with stuff I'm doing anyway. I just got lucky getting two 1KYS in two days. I still believe Nightfall should have a separate loot table with decent legendaries. I still kept my Secret Handshakes (Hammer Forged and Shot Package, as it was then) I got from Nightfall in year 1.

I got the rarest ship pre-TTK at rank 18. Woooo. Yes, the Teilhard War from FWC. I will still use Comitatus mostly no doubt, since a fair few people ask about it. It's not exactly hard to spot in the loading screen after all.
Update: Got to rank 25 with FWC. Got Vortex with Acc Coils, Tyre (remaining shader to get), some good rolls on a Villainy etc. So now it's mainly getting the Fermi Solution from Dead Orbit with my Warlock, which I fully expect to elude me. Also, completing a race in SRL counts as a win for the Crucible victories requirement for the exotic class items.

Got the FWC cloak.
Played some Salvage. Some Sunsinger used Fireborn, killed me, then teabagged a little. I noticed his year 2 flawless emblem so I looked up his stats and he has a career KD of 1.01 while I'm at 1.47. Only surprise is that his career KD is not below 1.

Yeah but it's usually done by people who don't really have the 'brag' to do it. Like he used Fireborn as another teammate was nearby, the game was nearly over anyway, and he has a KD of 1.01. If I did something really stupid I really wouldn't care but it seems most players do it on situations that will make teabagging lose its meaning. I swear most of the time it's like they're relieved to kill me because I've killed them about nine times before they get their chance to kill me or something.

In what seemed like forever, I maxed stormcaller on PMP2 and powered PMP3 to 40 and then I was able to do a last minute WPchalenge that dropped my some infusion fuel and made me be a consistent 317 regardless of my weapon combos.
Now to get a 310+ helm or two from Oryx

Darnu dropped two exotic engrams, a primary weapon and a helmet. Will decrypt these later on in the day.

Did an hm oryx golgoroth cm instead of the Iron Bunghole. 1st group was run by a kid and his buddy... Everything went smoothly until Oryx (although I got shafted by the rewards)... Then things went south quick: role switching as soon as the battle started, role switching mid fight for no reason, strategy switching on the fly for no reason, no communication then 3 people trying to tell everyone what to do at once, lots of blaming, etc. After an hour on Oryx, the kids pulled the plug and quit 2nd group was run a tired old brit and his 2 buds (he honestly sounded like tooros, it was crazy uncanny) Everyone had a role assigned and the leader communicated what to do... Bingobangowangotango: 1 run, no deaths, perhaps the best boss run I'e done in KF, if not in any raid/strike fight... Got the NM helm and completed that set for the shader... 2 more characters to get a better helm (it's still 310) but I got better boots and a shell to take me to 318 but a functional 317

Another night, another KF HM Challenge done and dusted.
Sorta same story as two nights ago, but this time it wasn't so much the group (we still had our effups) but a lot of game mechanics issues: runner not getting torn despite being on the 1st plate for a good 2 seconds, teleporting boomer knights as well as the ogres (at one point, I was on the 3rd platform and 3 ogres teleported almost simultaneously into the middle... Wrecked the titans instantly) After the 2.5 hours it took to kill golgoroth to wipe dozens of times at the Daughters (a lot was me on this one; kept on getting messed up whenever I'd slam a daughter)... We pulled the plug
Poured a stiff rum and coke: back at er. 30 minutes and 5 tries later... Oryx was dead. Minimal glitching... All effups happened right away.
Night Rewards: a 320 chest and a 314 bond... Nice stuff but that 310 helmet is hurting me hard... I can get to 318 but I'm a functional 317 in the raid

We need more S. R. L. for helmet upgrades. I got one up to 320 and a second to 319 and a third to 314 thanks to Sparrow Race. It's just a seat and an engine. You gotta ride with heart.
Too bad IB rewards seem so weak in comparison. I have already gotten 4 or 5 helmets to drop, but all around 290 light, which is lamesauce.

Or Bungie can stop making Raid helmets having low drop rates for once.

Yesterday was a significant date for me in Destiny, I got my very first hate/fan mail. I was using a Defender in Iron Banner so I don't know if it's me suppressing them out of their Supers that is ruining his/her fun, or me Final Rounding him/her with Weapons of Light. I mean if you're salty over a Defender then that's not a good sign, since I do much better with every other class, and I'm grinding the quest so I'm sometimes failing with the Disintegration kills (melee) when I'd just swap to a shotgun instead.

Got a 318 chest piece for my Hunter with sniper rifle ammo bonus, a 319 chest piece for my Titan with Int/Dis and sniper rifle ammo bonus, and a 318 Finnala's Peril from Lag Banner. Also, today I got the Fermi Solution at rank 15 with Dead Orbit so I only have one more ship to go, the new FWC one.

Finally got the Oryx CM done so I now have the ship, emblem, Ascendant Plane shader, and a 320 helmet for my Titan that comes with Intellect and Discipline. Now I need the final CF to get the Beltane shader.

Grats wings! I love that Oryx CM ship Good, bad, and ugly last night Good: got the 320 raid helmet and am a 319.15, but a functioning 318 Bad: infused the wrong raid machine gun so I have to use a 314 instead of the 320... Still annoyed about that Ugly: got the shader for getting all harrowed gear: fuggly fuggly fuggly

Yeah the ship is pretty good and it's one of few ships, if the only one, that has not had slight modifications in other ships so it's actually unique. May be the shaders go better with non-Oryx gear? The run had quite a few glitches and I was taking damage in Oryx's arena with no enemies around, then I get teleported into the Shade's circle about five seconds later. And another glitch I experienced was a Taken thrall hit me and I flew near a blight as if a Cabal unit had hit me, and on my screen it looked like it was set off, but then everyone else said it wasn't.
Chatterwhite seems to be best Raid shader.

Chatterwhite seems to be best Raid shader. Yep but people hated it because of the high frequency of the drop. I love it, but my accuracy suffers when I wear it; I shoot like a 1970/80's stormtrooper

And congrats to Mr. bradman on the acquisition of his Y2 Schwartzenhammer. 3 tries with a psn amigo didn't go so hot, but we took a chance on a Tower message plea from a micless 304er who did in fact "know what to do" and actually knew how to clear blights, then mobs, then boss, rinse X4 so we took out the boss with 20ish seconds to go. Got dicey with a minuteish left, but buddy there cleared out a lot going hammerbro on them so we could actually snipe and aim, rather than railgun because 6 thrall would swarm us. That might have been my fault because for about a minute, we didn't hurt the boss much, so I went on to the ledge and solar uppercutted him then I jumped off then back up... about 6 times and I think that that caused a double spawn of blights as the ones from the 75% weren't down yet before the razing took him down to 50% I even got another Vienna Singer to go with it

So the lagging douchebags in my last Trials run ended up having one of their fireteam members getting booted from the game, after they beat me 5-4. Thought Bungie was having their usual rubbish netcoding but since they're from Italy, I wouldn't rule out network manipulation in their part. They're used to cheats in football so this wouldn't surprise me. Their next game they lost anyway so no Lighthouse for that run.

2 attempts to get KF HM CM... Did fresh and got lots of stuff I didn't need but I did get a 320 primary to take my ToM to 318.
Bothruns were painful; 1st run was carrying a titan who just couldn't get the dps job or done or stay alive; we had to 5 man the wp, 5 down to 3 to finish golgie (dude had the green bomb aura and took me out) and we barely squeeked past the daughters. We did 5 oryx runs and no matter what dude did, he just couldn't get the job done
2nd run was the most blatant ass kissing of a girl gamer ever for me. She'd died 10 runs out of 10 and each time the group would make an excuse to excuse it. After telling her to run ss instead of sc and put spme mote to level to selfres. We ran it finally and then she didn't detonate all her bombs... Someone had to be the prick, so just when the excuses started, I had enough and put them in their place (nicely, no one rage quit) but whatever... We got rhe job done 2 runs later.
All's well that ends well
