@Malek86 doesn't look like a hideous nerf on Ikelos though (unless I'm misusing mine)

Roadmap looks packed. Xur bounties coming in the 2nd dlc, interesting.

I like that they're staggering the bits and pieces and not just dropping it all for the no lifers to burn through and whinge that there's nothing left to do

@Frogofdoom used to be that you would punch the boss and then unload your entire magazine on it while Trench Barrel was active - and possibly more, if you used the lower barricade to auto-reload while you fired. Now the buff disappears after three shots.

At this point, a shotgun with good reload speed and Rampage might be a better idea. For example, it means the Perfect Paradox is suddenly a contender again.

They also showed a video of Black Armory weapons, including one with Trench Barrel, so it won't be an exclusive perk anymore.

@crashVoodoo there's loads of stuff for the no-lifers too. Just got a couple quests from Zavala - one was the fusion rifle one we knew about, and with 40 strikes required, it will take a while to complete.

And there was also another quest for a pulse rifle, which requires 30 Vanguard bounties. Shoudn't take too long, but I think Bungie has the right idea here - giving out specific quests is a good way to make people pick up bounties, since tokens are not that useful otherwise.

Ahh, I tend to use mine on orange bars and use my sleeper for bosses. It's not a bad change for me really and if a better weapon pops up then so be it

Sounds like a sniper rifle in the armoury will have active reload mechanic. Proc'ing it will merge all four bullets in the chamber for a single powerful shot.

The new power cap should be 650. Next week I'll be busy. Well, I'm already busy.

By the way, amidst all the updates and new season, let's not forget it's full curse week. If anyone wants to go through the Shattered Throne, I can help.

Got my Borealis rifle last night from the refer-a-friens stuff. I like that I can swap between elements and it looks nice but is a bit slow to fire. Still, one for the collection :-)

He's just got to get to 50 now and we can do the gambit match and nightfall and I get the ornament and swanky emblem

13GB update? Ah, fuckit. I've barely played the Foreskin DLC since I got it and now they're about to move the goalposts again I bet. Destiny is no fun to play at an artificially lower cap, I've found. Ho hum, only myself and all the other games I play to blame for not being a lifer in this I guess.

@Phattso are you just base game with the 20 cap?

No, I'm all the way up to the Foreskin Y2 DLC, power 504 or something as far as I can recall. Haven't murderated all the Barons yet to get to the good content, because it bored the piss out of me. That's the problem with Destiny - if you stay away even for just a few weeks it can really lose its lustre.

No way to buy the new dlc separately.

The baron fights were shit imo. I would do one a week and get back to the loot drip.

@b-rk I really enjoyed them tbh. I think it helped that I'd just started using subtle calamity bow and was really having fun with it. Coupled with the sleeper it was an entertaining loop to pick of enemies and then melt the boss's face
