Deathjam Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 Significant! the Swords have an R1 melee attack but also a special R2 attack The Solar (Flame) Exotic sword has a single enemy heavy hitting flame attack - best for yellow bar Major/Ultra's as said above The Arc (Electric) Exotic sword has a long range sword electric beam (think Legend of Zelda full hearts beam) - good damage and makes the high light level sword useful on bosses that you can't get close to (@Drift_Kaiser uses his on the Warpriest) The Void (Darkness) Exotic Sword has a Darkness sword whirlwind (again think zelda) allowing it to hit multiple enemies at once - this also hits very hard but not as hard as the Solar Sword, i have this sword and can kill the psion flayers in the strike in 3/4 hits of the R2 special, almost as quick as i see those with the flame sword do Any takers for a Normal Raid this Friday/weekend? Can do weekend. Would do Friday too but doing trials. Also nice breakdown.
DriftKaiser Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 Bolt caster have a secondary effect where you can affect other enemies who stood near the one who got hit by the arc blast. I wipe alot of thralls in the Abyss due to this.
MilaGi Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 @Agent Gibbs yeah I'm up for the Raid but will be doing Trials with Deathjam and Daft at some point too
Rummy Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 Turns out Psychick doesn't think he can make it now either, which leaves 3 of us as a solid...so if anyone wants to join from Golgoroth around 2130/2200hrs this eve let me know with a mention...
Deathjam Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 So what time/day at the weekend? Saturday anytime.
DriftKaiser Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I'm free tonight if someone need a third player for ToO or raid.
Shorty Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 @Rummy enjoy your fusion rifle while you can :p once you've near completed your collection and really figured out which guns are best, you'll probably never use one again. Also, psychick is a guy's username?
Nolan Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 @Rummy enjoy your fusion rifle while you can :p once you've near completed your collection and really figured out which guns are best, you'll probably never use one again. Also, psychick is a guy's username? Hey now, Telesto is kinda neat. And sleeper stimulant if you don't have a sword. And yeah basically Fusion Rifles aren't shit.
Shorty Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 Well, they're fun (along with Vex Mythoclast) precisely because they're nothing like all normal fusion rifles :p
Deathjam Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 @MilaGi @Deathjam Trials at 6:30? Can do. Know what the weapon and armour is this week?
MilaGi Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 @MilaGi @Deathjam Trials at 6:30? Yeah, should be fine
Agent Gibbs Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I really should try the trials at some point (I've never actually done any), i REALLY want that Anubis helmet (Jackal something)
Shorty Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 Something we haven’t yet mentioned is that Shaxx is going to have a few new items for sale, as well. After next week’s update, once you’ve completed the “Blademaster” Quest to obtain your Exotic sword, you’ll be able to purchase all three Legendary swords directly from Lord Shaxx. Lol, glad I didn't do that quest three times.
Eddage Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) Lol, glad I didn't do that quest three times. Yeah but I doubt they'll be at 310 (I will cry if they are). Edit: Wait, you can purchase the legendary swords. So you still need to do the quest to get the exotics? Edited November 13, 2015 by Eddage
Rummy Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 Yeah not sure why it ended up as psychick @Shorty, not sure if he realised but he does seem to enjoy playing as girls :p Re: fusion rifles - atm other than a sniper I don't know what else I'd have as a secondary. Have a blue sidearm but it doesnt exactly feel that great compared to the fusion - as said I find it a good hard hitter with semi decent medium range. You gotta remember that I mostly PVE than PVP tho as well.
Nolan Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Sniper/Shotgun and I only PvE. I've been putting off the exotic sword quest for aaaaages because of it.

Nolan Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 I will note, that I just solo'd a taken corruption on Mars (one I failed multiple times before with other ransoms before) in a few minutes simple because I sniped every lieutenant and then sniped the Zealot. Without that sniper rifle I still wouldn't be able to solo it. A shotgun or Fusion rifle just can't do the same time of damage, and if they could you can survive in that onslaught long enough. If it's the best you have and need it for light level stick with it, but otherwise (at least while raiding/striking) you might want to adjust to what works.
DriftKaiser Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 If you have been using the Destiny companion app, Bungie dropped a package at the postmaster as a thank you.

I don't do much solo either :p I do of course see where you're coming from. I did some of the house of wolves mission line solo t'ither day - in that instance I was on the sniper for pretty much the same reason. I haven't used the fusion for the raid, tho I'll usually have it for a low level strike - it really depends on what I'm doing and I carry both anyway. Speaking of raid thanks again to @Deathjam and @MilaGi for joining and helping us finish last night. Hope Gabe didn't get on your nerves too much, I forget what teenagers can be like!

Hope Gabe didn't get on your nerves too much, I forget what teenagers can be like! No worries - was happy to help and glad we helped you get it finished too! Teenagers like to talk a lot, so it's no problem. Being told I have no life because I have all the Trials gear was an interesting introduction to the group though haha!
DriftKaiser Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Loving using the Defender Titan in the Rift. Gonna upload the videos later or tomorrow.
