RIPPA Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 At least you have probably finished this week’s challenge since presage clears = captain’s logs (you just have to look at the lore pages). It is 3 clears total (well 3 after your initial clear) Watching enough runs of it on YT has showed me which enemies can be skipped so I am hoping that will speed things up.

Eivion Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Nope, I had to stop just before that post as I was getting too pissed off after getting one shot out of nowhere before nearly finishing off the boss. That would have been my third clear. It will happen this week though I may just say fuck it and find a team on reddit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 I still have only done it once so I need to at least do one clear this week to do my first round of scans. I will admit that I am a little lucky in that - since I am a Titan - I am running Solar with a good rolled Hallowfire Heart so anything with a solar shield (and groups) go down way easier than the first time I tried it. I just need to remember to run bottom tree next time instead of top tree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 Well that was frustrating. Decided to do a Presage run - got the first 4 scannables and got to the boss.... and then my game locked up. Grr.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 I am finding that nothing in the run up to the final battle is too hard beyond my own stupidity. I must have died a half dozen times just because I bashed my head on something. But boy is the world on fire during the boss battle between both of us throwing solar damage all over the place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 I hate this game Went to do the Presage again. Get to the final boss. I notice that there is no music playing so I am a little worried that servers are having a moment. Get into the last phase - boss has maybe a quarter of health left and then he just fucking vanishes. Ran around the bottom trying to find him and he is gone and no enemies are above. Drop back down still looking for him and he fucking materializes behind me. Smashes me into the wall and I die. So yeah... I am taking a break from Destiny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Have to say as much as I agree with Datto about the issues with Stasis in PvP I do find it funny that he made a video about his love of all the nerfs while in background showing himself as a solar Titan running around one-shotting people with multiple grenades that would come back super fast. Oh yes Stasis is totally the only thing broken in PvP, yep nothing else there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 Thank Fucking Christ Got another Presage clear so I finished the first round of scans Almost two more rage quit moments - one was my own fault. Was fighting the boss and hit the final part - went to flush the coolant and just spaced it and went to the middle one 2nd - burnt to death. Gave it another go and barely completed as the boss died to my burning after I was already dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I like the mission but also find it frustrating. I suggest goign t LFG or reddit Fireteams if you want to get the Catalyst. You need a team for the Master version. I actually just masterwork Dead Man's Tale last night. It really is the scout rifle version of Last Word. I kind of love it which is amusing since I actually am not fond of Last Word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 Oh yeah - there is no chance I try Master without a team. I kinda wanna try flawless on the regular version but the platforming fucks me every time I giggle thinking about JT having to do the mission with how much he hates Destiny platforming (though to be fair the boarding part SUUUUUCCCCKKKKSSSSS as a Titan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) I loath platforming. I've just had to learn to live with it. I also discovered when testing out Mask of Bakris that I am way the fuck too used to using the Stomp-EE5 now. I died a few times platforming on the second Nessus Battleground because I was jumping around like I was still wearing the damn things. Felt so damn stupid when that happened.

RIPPA Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 What really fucking sucks is how many jumps in this mission are the type you can fuck up because you can smash your head into something. It is one thing if my dumb ass overshoots a ledge But to knock me down because a random plant vine was in a spot I couldn't see is infuriating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There really is no good reason for the mobility and jumping from the Stomp-EE5 to not be the norm for the Hunters. It would be the only way to make them even with Titans and Warlocks who have the ability to fucking fly/float. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In D1, everyone could cover the same distance more or less with jumps / boosts / gliding and items like Bones of Eao improved jumping ability. Now. Hunters need gear like Stomp-EE5 to cover the distances that Titans and Warlocks can cover naturally and to add insult to injury, the number of platforming puzzles in raids and the like seems to be increasing. It is a load of horseshit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 So I found a guy who has been doing Presage carries the last 5 hours or so on reddit. Just two-manning the mission with him made it the mostly stupidly fast run I have had so far. I seriously think it was under 10 minutes. The middle room went by so fast it was almost sad considering the trouble it has given me and others before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destiny's canon is seriously lacking in gravitas. The plot of this game feels more like a daytime soap with characters constantly entering and exiting the stage and only one (RIP Cayde-6) has permanently died.

RIPPA Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 Technically - three (if you count ghosts).. of course both were more of the minor variety But yeah - the whole "big bad tweets from the Destiny account" that happened last week would have driven you insane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 4 deaths then since I forgot Sundance And at least one Brother Vance died too so actually 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Aw. I never liked Brother Vance, but I didn't want him to die. Vance wasn't the only Osirian cultist at the Lighthouse, so the death toll is much higher than one if you're saying that Mercury was nuked at the beginning of Beyond Light. I'm guessing that Sloane and Asher Mir are also dead. Edited March 15, 2021 by J.T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
