Yeah, well, you're going to want a primary with arc burn to take the shields off those captains quick if you expect to beat skolas. That or have a 365 found verdict to two or 3 shot them. Tlw aint gonna cut it

 

I'll be ready when the time comes.  I already have a Thunderlord prepped for his ass.  Beating Crota is the more reachable goal right now for my Hunter.

And the vault just gave me the 7th mythoclast

 

I with I could get the 1st Mythoclast, brah.

 

Finally got up to Crota's Bane Rank 4 with my Hunter so at least I don't have to worry about that anymore.

Okay, so I am dumb.  It just now dawned on me that the "disturb the remains" thing at the Skywatch is an easter egg reminder of the old loot cave..  I finally heard the "A million deaths is not enough for you, Rahool," dialogue bit when I touched the remains yesterday while helping some guys beat down Urzog.

 

My new Dry Rot 32 is the spiritual successor to my long lost and beloved Invisible Hand M7 shottie.

I actually deleted that bounty (though I could pick it back up any time I wanted)

 

I mean the gauntlets are pointless now with all the new stuff and I am already rank 4 with my Titan

 

So they only reason to finish it on my Hunter is just for the sake of doing it.

I suffered through it so it wouldn't sit in my queue anymore.  And since we cannot name and shame players at the Bungie boards, I will do it here.

 

If you are on 360 and see CLUMZb3AR or PoisonWater607 on your fireteam, get the hell out of Dodge.  They are both idiots and are probably 13 year old idiots to boot.  They are both like that moron that wanted you and me to carry him through The Shadow Thief.

OH!

I don't know why I thought of this but I finally remembered

 

I have been offered to join this group/clan KSI multiple times now.

 

All the players have gamertags that start with KSI - though they claim it isn't required to change your name to join.

 

I remember the first request I got was after a crucible match where the other team had three KSI dudes on it and I proceeded to drop 25 kills on them.

 

I ran into one of them during IB again last week (one that I have played against a few times) and suddenly the invites started flying again.

 

I am scared to find out what KSI actually stands for

Had a couple interesting times in the nightfall yesterday.  Joined up with a guy on reddit and joined his chat party.  He wasn't saying anything.  I join his fireteam and see that he's level 32 and I think well maybe he's just switching his armor around.  And then I see his grimoire score is 1900 something.  Then I see him start the nightfall with just the two of us and I realize oh shit I'm about to solo this damn nightfall.  This dude can't stay alive.  I keep having to go invis and revive him.  Eventually I die and leave the dude. 

 

Next up is two more randoms from reddit.  These guys were pretty cool and fun to talk to.  We went through and struggled a bit because one of the guys was prone to dying.  Went to orbit once early on.  But finished it the second time.  I realized in that run that on the walker part, the best place to be is that tunnel near the walker on the bottom right.  If you go in there and stay near the entrance farthest from the walker you have about three dregs to kill in there.  Then exploder shanks spawn two at a time from the door in there about three different times.  Once they're dead, there's no enemies to worry about.  The only thing that can kill you is when the walker is coming back to life he lets out an arc ground stomp that will kill you from behind the wall if you're too close.  But it's easy to shoot his legs from cover and have one person far enough back to revive you if you die when the walker comes back to life.  So I tell these guys the strategy and one of them isn't really into it but gives it a shot on the next go.  I tell one dude to stay back and take care of the shanks while I do work on the walker.  I die and we go to orbit because one other guy supposed to be watching the exploder shanks is out in the main area shooting the walker for some reason.  So exploder shanks killed me and the other guy.  He gets all bent out of shape about it and how that room sucks and being outside near the main entrance is better and safer.  I end up having to bust out the stats from the previous run to show him his k/d etc. compared to mine since I was in that tunnel by myself the whole time and had to keep coming out to where they were to revive them. 

 

But yeah I do think the safest strategy is that bottom right tunnel.  The walker can't shoot you there.  You're just too vulnerable at the top of the room between the enemies that spawn and the walker shooting you.

Depending on who you talk to, KSI stands for either Knowledge Strength Integrity or Killing Services Incorporated. 

 

They have some pro guilds under the KSI banner that compete professionally at MLG events, but they accept just about anyone over the age of 16.

 

I've gotten a few invites to KSI and FaZeClan but I flat out refuse to join.  I've gotten quite bit of hate mail from KSI and Faze douches when they end up on the bad end of the massacre in the Crucible. 

 

I'm also not changing my gamertag for them.

Yeah - I seem to have the most success with that tube on the right by the walker too.

 

The left tube is okayish until the fucking dudes with the wire rifles show up sniping.

 

The back dead center is just a death trap

 

And if you insist on racing all the way past the walker and sniping from up top - have the decency to not die because no one is coming to get your ass there

Exploder shanks and dregs path towards the tube on the right.  If you use that tunnel you need to look up from ADS every once in a while so you don't get flanked from the rear.  The Walker cannot target you with the main gun in that tube, but it can still get pulse cannon shots in there and the occasional lucky mine will bounce near you and murder you via splash damge.

 

Back dead center is a deathtrap.  Walker has line of sight and you are going to get flanked on both sides. 

 

Left tube is not horrible but you still leave yourself open to flanking.

 

Just about anywhere is a good spot for me so long as Lightswitch isn't on.  Stalker, Vanish, and Escape Artist get me out of a lot of trouble.

I can punch exploder shanks and dregs with ease

 

I can't punch wire rifle cowards

 

I usually take care of the wire rifle cowards.  One of the rare times I am allowed to use my sniper rifle.

That little room on the right is where i tend to hang out, but i like to jump up on the walker and unload shotgun rounds into the brain. This week for the nightfall though, youre probably better off just chilling and sniping with P&T since it does ridiculous damage with specialist on. Fadeless *gatherer of ghorns* and myself two-manned TANNICKS and he was dead before he teleported off the platform. Nothing spawned in until after he was dead for a few seconds.. fadeless got an icebreaker, i got an allfate that run

Me and the dude I brought in to help with that VoG run two-manned Summoning Pits on Sunday and I g-horned Phoggoth to death in four rockets.  Poor bastard had barely broken his chains before we vaporized him. 

 

I also got an AllFate but I shredded it.  Needed the Weapon Parts and the Motes to re-roll DryRot 32 and got Shot Package / Rodeo.  Wanted Arc Damage for it but rolled Void Damage instead.  Can't have it all, I guess.

I have never re-rolled a weapon meanwhile JT has done it a billion times

 

Gotta do something with those Motes of Light.  I wish you could re-roll armor perks.

Message at Bungie.net about Destiny being offline tomorrow for scheduled updates so don't bother logging on tomorrow morning to sneak in any vanguarding.

I did a couple crucible matches last night to get my marks up to 150.  So tonight when I get on I'll go buy the Judgement VI shotgun from New Monarchy and attempt to get a good roll from it.  If I don't get a good roll with the 50 or so motes I have left I'll have to wait until Xur shows up to spend strange coins on motes to try some more.

Took care of the 3 Nightfalls tonight before going to watch the new Terminator.

 

Vestian Dynasty wrecks in there this week! the only time i changed to Fang was when i'd ran out of ammo from killing things and needed to kill more things, to get more ammo, to kill more things. My buddy was using Efrideet's Spear, final round was doing over 50,000 damage to Taniks. Needless to say, he didn't last long. He didn't get a chance to move from the teleporter pad in the first encounter, we nearly killed him in the second (we did it before on solar week, he still comes back at the end) and we'd finished him off before anything spawned at the end. The Walker was dead before the exploding Shanks had even spawned. Nightfalls like this are the best ones. The enemies are a big enough threat that they keep you honest but the modifiers make it so much fun to just run around and blast fools. All 3 combined, including changing characters and weapons couldn't have taken more than 40 mins.

 

I got a 3rd Thunderlord and 2 legendary engrams for my troubles. I haven't decoded them yet but you can bet i'll have a couple more Motes of Light for the pile!

Got my Judgment VI and re rolled it a few times. Got three prefect perks so I left it alone. Got shot package, reinforced barrel, and aggressive ballistics. The last perk is a tier 2, increased speed after a kill, but that's fine. I got the sniper I wanted.
