[QUOTE=SomeDumbShit;48826776]I'm around, just doing strikes while we wait.[/QUOTE] yeah I'm around too
[QUOTE=Kylel999;48826823]We just spent 5 hours at Oryx and we didn't manage to stun him once. The team could not comprehend the idea of throwing a bubble down in the center of the map[/QUOTE] You don't need a bubble, just shoot him in the chest
[QUOTE=AcidAmbience;48826858]You don't need a bubble, just shoot him in the chest[/QUOTE] We were. All of us were using sniper rifles. We couldn't do enough damage in time, we were all light level 294+ too
[QUOTE=Kylel999;48826823]We just spent 5 hours at Oryx and we didn't manage to stun him once. The team could not comprehend the idea of throwing a bubble down in the center of the map[/QUOTE] thats actually impressive
[QUOTE=Kylel999;48826905]We were. All of us were using sniper rifles. We couldn't do enough damage in time, we were all light level 294+ too[/QUOTE] you were doing something wrong then because 6 294+ sniper rifles should stagger oryx before he's even starting to do the thunderclap
[QUOTE=Kylel999;48826905]We were. All of us were using sniper rifles. We couldn't do enough damage in time, we were all light level 294+ too[/QUOTE] You obviously were not
Once again I am baffled by this game. When I enter the menu where to select the type of crucible match to play, it looks like this. [t]https://photos-1.dropbox.com/t/2/AAC7WHot-Z5UaXxfQpc-SF1iKTnVlEzuLPfjvQ-zkmX1sg/12/313843882/jpeg/32x32/1/1443988800/0/2/Foto%202015-10-04%2020%2033%2002.jpg/CKrB05UBIAEgAiADIAYgBygH/v-bNXcZtKkyE2sGfy79VmzLIYGCsBppWeW_l9o6M2qs?size=1600x1200&size_mode=2[/t] (Sorry for the bad picture) But when I google it, it always looks like this [t]http://i.ytimg.com/vi/aoIKgs4e-gk/maxresdefault.jpg[/t] I'm gonna assume this is an alpha image, but it's all I can find online. First of all, why are there massive red triangles around some? Is that purely for looks, or is there some type of reason for them? And second, how come I can't see that red circle in the corner? I read that it shows your cap of crucible marks (turned legendary marks), but I've never gotten legendary marks in Crucible matches. Is there a reason for this? :saddowns:
[QUOTE=AcidAmbience;48826996]You obviously were not[/QUOTE] Just checked his recent games. Two people were 293, 3 were 300+ and Kyle was 295.
because the bottom picture is very outdated

well one is alpha build and one is post 2dlc + huge expansion build a year after the game released it's not that complicated, things have changed, you don't get marks for crucible except for the daily playlist and the weekly featured playlist
[QUOTE=Chains!;48827032]The red triangles means they are Taken King playlists. You dont get Legendary marks from crucible anymore.[/QUOTE] Wait, if the red triangles means TKK playlist, then how come even the default crucible matches have red triangles over them? And the two top ones are TKK, but they don't have the triangle. :v: [QUOTE=o DefcoN o;48827035]well one is alpha build and one is post 2dlc + huge expansion build a year after the game released it's not that complicated, things have changed, you don't get marks for crucible except for the daily playlist and the weekly featured playlist[/QUOTE] I don't think it's too obvious for a newbie. But yeah, I understood that it looks different because it's older, but there's a lot of small details not explained when I google it. It's either an outdated forum thread or outdated wiki articles. So this is my only place to ask because I don't know anybody who plays Destiny.
ok raid peeps, me and whazat are getting online, and gareth can't play so bugga if you join us we'll have a full squad to finish it (providing Cross gets online also) lets get'er done also the playlists with red diamonds on them are permanent playlists, the 2 at the top on either side change weekly, and the 3 at the bottom are legacy

A lot of things are confusing and not obvious to me outside of this. I do something in the game and it's not explained, and I try to figure out why, but nothing happens. I thought it'd be fine to ask. Sorry.

Sorry.[/QUOTE] Its totally fine to ask questions, but for stuff like legendary marks, you can put your cursor over them as well as look at them at vendors to see how you can get them. It also shows what activities give you legendary marks upon completion. Other than the borderline nonexistant vanilla story, basically all the game mechanics are fairly self explanatory. If there is anything that really confuses you, feel free to ask here, but see if you can't figure it out first for the future.

Thank you for being patient with me, I'll try not to ask too many questions. (I did it, but it only says that they can be used to purchase Legendary gear from vendors)

(I did it, but it only says that they can be used to purchase Legendary gear from vendors)[/QUOTE] I forget exactly where, but basically here are all of the current ways to get Legendary Marks: 15 per day from Daily Heroic mission 15 per day from Daily Crucible gamemode most of the time there will be a special crucible gamemode where you get 10 marks per win 10 marks 3 times a week from the Heroic Strike Playlist A couple of vanguard quests in the Taken King expansion Dismantling new legendaries Now these can be used to purchase both legendary and exotic gear, but its not the only way to get them. Legendary gear is important to get you up to 280 light and beyond. You can get higher level legendaries from a source of things, but exotics are special items that you can only equip 1 of (1 armor, 1 weapon) that usually start at 280 or 290 light. Legendary gear can be rewarded from rank up packages (reaching a new rank in Vanguard, Crucible, or any of the factions), from engrams, as end-of-activity rewards, and so on. Exotics are sold by Xur who is only in the tower on Fridays and Saturdays, as well as random rewards from stuff like the Nightfall, the Raid, etc., and certain exotics can only be awarded through tough quests (Boolean Gemini, all 3 exotic swords, Touch of Malice, etc.)

I knew a little bit about it, but not that there was a Daily Crucible gamemode. I'm not so sure which one is the daily one though. It doesn't appear to say if I hover.

Man I am having fucking awful issues with my PS4 since the latest system update, friends list randomly just blanks out, can't join a community, every message and invite I get is apparently "6 minutes ago" the instant I receive it, had to restart my PS4 twice now to join this party and still can't get in =/ [editline]4th October 2015[/editline] Oh good now I can't connect to PSN but my internet is fine.

yes please
Damn, I regret picking the void sword. Relic iron is like the worst material to farm.
[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;48827475]Damn, I regret picking the void sword. Relic iron is like the worst material to farm.[/QUOTE] i did a back and forth run from the barrens to the buried city and back its really pretty easy if you have a ghost shell, the issue is that you cant buy a relic iron one so you have to get it randomly i did it in 4 hours without a ghost, then it took me 30 minutes on the moon for the solar sword with a helium ghost [editline]4th October 2015[/editline] the good news is that the void exotic sword absolutely shits out damage
Shaxx sells a relic iron ghost shell, but you need to be rank 2.
are you for fucking real i thought those were the bonus something from warlock kills or whatever fuck my life
