Did 3 queen's wrath last night with a friend and he got the same exact chest all 3 times.

Got to 25 this morning, quite an achievement for me. Getting any further at this point is going to take some work, I'm not sure how much longer I'll grind strikes/patrols/public events. I guess as long as I have friends playing, it's fun.

Speaking of public events, do you guys use the websites that supposedly track when and where they are going to start? I used one last night, destinyeventtracker.com, which is formatted to fit in a snapped IE window on the Xbox One. Some of them were close, other didn't happen at all. Too unreliable to bother with.
Seriously that pisses me off sometimes. Plus still getting shitty drops in high level strike missions is retarded. Why drop a lvl 15 green Pulse Rifle in a lvl 24 strike?

I'm OK with the drops in strikes if they just lower the final boss health. Make them faster to beat instead of a tedious battle. Raids should really be the place to get legandary drops, but the ability to group without a clan needs added.

I wish, I have shit luck with drops apparently because having done a large chunk of the raid today all I got was ascendant shards and energies, got a decent number of them, but still. I thought i'd get at least 1 legendary drop from it.

I wish I got shards instead of all the energy I got. My weapons are pretty well leveled but I need shards to upgrade my armor to hit 29. I keep getting energy and motes for everything from public events to my engrams that turn to materials heh.

That's all I got in our raid today also. Was ok as I was able to do 3 upgrades in total today.

I have 20 energies and nothing to spend them on until i can level up the exotic I just got and the legendary sniper I got (but I always seem to need fusion rifles so I haven't been using it much).


at least I have enough to fully upgrade my exotic pulse rifle, it will just take a little while to get the xp for it.

Bounties are good for upgrading weapons. I ended up getting the sniper rifle from queens wrath and that's how I am gonna level it.

I know we are picking up where we left off, but I won't be able to make it today. Have a family thing with wife and daughter.

It's not supposed to, they are making 4 games. Destiny is what you make of it. If all you do is play the missions in order and that's it, you won't get much out of it.

This game is impossible to play solo after early 20's because you NEED other people to play with. It's not like you can meet randoms and talk to them and get to know them even though they say it's a social game. They killed the original loot cave because they said they want it social, well this is the least social multiplayer FPS since the PS2 generation. That's one of my biggest annoyances with this so called social game. It's anti social unless you already know them.

There's only one thing in the game that cannot be done solo. The raid. Every other activity and strike has been done solo. Some people have even done the Nightfall strike solo. Still it's better with people for sure.

How do you solo a strike? I always get added to a queue?

Yeah the social aspect of this game is HORRID. It is a pain to anything party related if you don't know the people. It should automatically allow voice within the game especially on strikes.

I am on level 24 and I am not going any further. It would have been fun to do the queen raid but I will live without. My 8 year nephew never played it before so we played it today and he got bored very quickly. He was like "we have played this level a hundred times" I said that is the point of the game. He quickly turned it off and went to Guacamelee.

When they release more content outside of the more "loot" I will def fire it up again.

One cool thing about the game is that even without my disc it still plays. Sold it on ebay and it still allows me to log on and play. Very strange.

Maybe you forgot you purchased the digital version and then bought a physical copy.

Yes they CAN be done solo but a lvl 23 is going to get murdered doing a lvl 24 Strike solo.

And that's the problem with this game, they themselves Bungie keep saying it's a social game but it is literally the least social shooter since the PS2 generation.

I just don't understand their aversion to voice chat. Nothing even in the damn Crucible.

The Tower is supposed to be the "Social Hub" and yea all you can do is dance with each other. Can't even talk to each other.
