Jimbob Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Even with TTK, it's not going to be a farewell to the older raids (Crota, Vault of Glass). I'm up for doing them just for the giggles really.
Shorty Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I want to do normal CE, get a spare Black Hammer, so feel free to invite me along if anyone starts one.
Hero-of-Time Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 “Destiny: The Taken King is officially the most downloaded game on day-one in PlayStation history and set a new benchmark for both total Destiny players and peak online concurrency on day-one, so it’s safe to say the Destiny franchise continues to gain momentum,” said Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision Publishing. “Along with our talented partners at Bungie, we cannot wait to watch the community continue to grow and tackle the King’s Fall Raid kicking off on Friday.” The hype was real.
Blade Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I'm getting the game tomorrow. Anyone up helping out in a fireteam?
Eddage Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) @Daft, I'm now 270+ so should hopefully be over 280 for the raid tomorrow night! Also, hit me up tomorrow for strike playlists/quests, I'll be on all day (again). @DriftKaiser and I did some Heroic Strikes and I got a year 2, light level 290 Heart of the Praxic Fire from a legendary engram! We may have to have completed a quest line before we can do the raid... Edited September 17, 2015 by Eddage
DriftKaiser Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I'm two attack away from start an Exotic Sword quest! The tier 3 for Court of Oryx requires you to have 300+ light level. Daft and me stumbled across someone tried to do that despite their light level are too low haha.
drahkon Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Beginning with a new character was a good choice. Done two quests and there's a lot of new stuff already. Will ease into it.
Daft Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 The raid has been confirmed as light level 280. I'm currently sitting at 251 with the whole of today to play. Hopefully I'll hit the target.

MilaGi Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 The raid has been confirmed as light level 280. I'm currently sitting at 251 with the whole of today to play. Hopefully I'll hit the target. Mine's on 211 or something like that so I'll be nowhere near haha! Good luck to your raid team tonight
Jimbob Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I don't think i'll reach 280 for raiding, i only just hit 200 last night. But, i did get the new arc powers (which are a lot of fun btw). So probably will sit out this weeks raiding, hopefully i hit it ready for next time. I've also been plodding along in the story, yet to get a decent new weapon (still rocking a scout/auto-combo from year 1). But i have heard that a quest i'm doing at the moment results in a year 2 exotic, so hopefully i'll have a new weapon soon. Just reached level 39, will be level 40 this evening. Then the fun will really begin.
Dan_Dare Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Alright what's the raid team situation? I'll be 260 today I think so I'm calling dibs on a spot for Sol :-) Sent from my XT1068 using Tapatalk

Jimbob Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Least i can get my first piece(s) of Exotic armor. Have Bungie left it as 1 exotic armor piece and 1 weapon still?
Eddage Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 That legacy engram is ridiculous at that price, although I did get an exotic I didn't manage to get in year 1 A little disappointed with the lack of exotic weapon :/ Also, you get 5 Three of Coins at a time, so I'm guessing that's the limit for how much they stack.
Jimbob Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Going to finish off the mission to get my first year 2 exotic weapon this evening, shouldn't take me too long. Along the way, i'll reach level 40. And hopefully by then, i'll get access to the higher level strikes. Pretty sick of only being able to do the easy ones, the ones with nothing good on loot drops. Anyone not raiding or wants some help, feel free to join me. I'll be on from 8-9pm this evening until late.
Shorty Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) You can definitely stack more than 5 Three of Coins. Can someone please check if the trials inventory has reset? Edited September 18, 2015 by Shorty
Agent Gibbs Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I'm getting the game tomorrow. Anyone up helping out in a fireteam? I'll be online tonight, made level 40 but i've only 199 light, seems you need 240 just to do the daily's weekly's etc
Rummy Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 @Choze @Rummy this article looks good for beginners http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2015/09/17/tips-playing-destiny-taken-king And regarding the raid: [tweet]644616573219684352[/tweet] Man, there is a lot of stuff to this game!! I played from the beginning again on a Hunter last night - got to abouts where I did with my Titan but found it both a bit more boring, and harder too(couldn't do all the Cosmodrome patrol quest/find all the beacons that my mate somehow did) so I think this game definitely goes much better with other people. Felt like it was taking so much more time by myself. Haven't touched the Crucible yet but will think about dipping in over the next few days. For anyone noobing up or just generally bored - I'll likely be opening a chat party whenever I'm on; if I'm in a party and it isn't private feel free to jump in and say hello! It's just me and one mate on Destiny atm, but we'll be generally chatting up there. I'll happily join you guys when you're partying too if that's cool! Anyhow, think my mate and me are gonna carry on with some story stuff tonight about half 9(we're around level 9ish atm).
Jimbob Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I'll be online tonight, made level 40 but i've only 199 light, seems you need 240 just to do the daily's weekly's etc That would explain why i can't see them on my screen.
drahkon Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) Yeah, thanks @Shorty I'm hooked again The old story missions are the same, but talking to NPCs to accept and complete other quests is a nice addition. And that quest menu is a godsend. : peace: Don't you get materials from patrol missions anymore? And those public events? No rewards? Edited September 18, 2015 by drahkon
Eddage Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 You should only use one 3 of Coins at a time!
Jimbob Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Don't you get materials from patrol missions anymore?And those public events? No rewards? You still get materials, but in greater quantity i've seen. Not sure on the old public events, but the newer ones with the Taken are pretty fun.
Daft Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Just hit 281. I'm Raid ready. You should only use one 3 of Coins at a time! Stack them until an exotic drops?
Eddage Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Just hit 281. I'm Raid ready. Stack them until an exotic drops? So you use one and if an exotic doesn't drop then you use another one for the next boss. Using more than one at a time doesn't seem to make a difference. I just tested the method I linked to and got two exotic engrams from 6 coins.
