@Centipede

to add to what you said: leveling up your crucible/vanguard/faction gives you guaranteed shards in a way too @ThiefyPoo ...everytime you reach a new level, they give you a legendary mail thing at the postmaster...whatever you dont want, break down for shards....

Forgot about that. Thanks

What an odd sequence of events last night. Got the Truth exotic rocket launcher in the crucible while trying to complete the Super Good Advice machine gun exotic bounty. Completed the rest of it doing another regular bounty. Turned it in at the tower and got another exotic bounty (chose Invective again so I don't have to pass it around)

2 exotics in one day plus another exotic bounty

Btw if anyone is on the Xyor the Unwed step of the Thorn bounty or is willing to help me out on X1, lemme know

Breh I've been trying to complete that since Saturday. Let me know when you want to run. I'm usually available after 5pm during the week.

@Tic Tac T O EDIT: I just remembered I have to go check something out with the wife tonight so won't be on.

 

[Deezay]

I won't stunt,
I'm starting to get tired of how unrare the rares are, now. Lol!!!

Invective
MIDA-Multi tool
Red Death
Super Good Advice

Got the Bounty for the Pocket Infinity last night....Sheesh.

True, though to be fair when you look at the numbers all around and the weapons being used and how well they're used it paints a clearer picture.

For the sake of conversation though, would you say that a kill death ratio is the primary indicator of skill?

In this game yea,cuz there aren't any kill streaks to boost your k:d like some of these CoD players be doin,I been keeping my k:d at 1.76 using this shytty hard of light exotic AR,takin me forever to get kills with it to upgrade it cuz it has so much fukkin recoil

 

[GoldenGlove]

I see I'm the only one that actually can do work with the Pulse Rifles



More Pulse Rifle kills than Auto Rifle kills in the Crucible

That's true, but I meant the question in a different way. For example if you take a look at everyone in this thread with a positive KDR you'll see that they're shotgun users. I don't think that's a coincidence. It kills quick, meaning less chance of being ganged up on or interrupted during a firefight. When you fight mid to long range you have a higher risk of being killed with no opportunity to trade especially with grenades that track and etc.

I'm asking if you think weapon plays a factor here. Coming off the recent update of nerfing autos and shotguns it sounds like Bungie seems to think its relevant.

@GoldenGlove I see you pleghboi, I just got a legendary pulse. I'll catch up to you soon. I like your accuracy numbers too

I play a lot of Control so the shotty is a must for me.

I've noticed that people have been switching up their styles though... when the game first dropped people would just rush in with the shotty out... now I've been noticing people trolling the radar and walking backwards with ARs out. I think the patch has something to do with that.

Didn't buy this for competition.
I know mine is ass.
Only time I get in the crucible is for bounties.

True, I've noticed that too. I'll look on my radar and see that solid red and think "here, they come..." but they never do. They just wait until I come out and move backwards.

I put down my Auto completely and I've been focusing on SRs and PRs. I've had mild success with Scouts but its EXTREMELY unforgiving if you miss your headshots. If you can't connect headshots on multiple targets at once to discourage folks from just standing in plain sight and blasting you, you're going to lose.

Pulse rifles keep people a bit more honest in that regard.
