ok seems I mis-understood the changes.

If for example you trade you Sauros in to Xur, you gain a new Sauro, yes you have to level it from the start, but the base damage starts at 300, with 323 as the max.

In short you won't lose raw damage just the mods off the gun until you level it again, so not a bad trade off, also Exo's don't require assendant materials anymore, just an Exo shard for the last node.

Exo shards cost 7 coin from Xur, not sure on the charge for a new tier gun, also I wouldn't bother putting any xp into any Exo gears before the patch now, as all your doing is wasting materials, if it's a base gun or fully upgraded weapon you can trade it in.

Well breaking down an Exo also gives an Exo shard.

[NinjaJohnno]

Yup I broke my 3 Plan-C guns already, I hate fusions rifles.

My plan come patch day, I have almost levelled up my vanguard rep, so come patch I can get a commendation and get a tier 2 gun of piece of armour, I have also maxed my vanguard marks, leaning towards armour so I can max out an Exo gun.

 

This week I am buying shards from Xur to upgrade my Exo helmet, Exo scout rifle, Icebreaker & Gjarllarhorn.

[dx144]

I'm making sure I have one of each exo weapon just because. They have started to fix all the Exotics now since Bad JuJu has increased ammo and Super Good Advice has about the same stability as Zombie Apocalypse.

Huh. Saw the first ads for the new destiny dlc. I wait for your reviews, but unless it is absolutely awesome and actually has a story, I'm probably not going to pick up destiny ever again.

[dx144]

Highly doubt that.

 

I might get the DLC because other's I know are getting it and I don't want to be that one guy without it and while everyone is level 32 and destroying everything I'm there struggling as a level 30. 

 

Starting now to seem like a you've payed so and so extra to Bungie so you can reach higher levels...

Hi can anyone offer any advise on completing the last part of the Thorn bounty?

I can get to Phogoths room, and made it to the third dropship once, but made a stupid mistake and died, since then I have struggled big time to get to this point again.

I have used a mix of Arc and Solar to try this, but it's kicking my ass, most of the people I know who played this on the 360 have quit so solo really is my only option.

[NinjaJohnno]

Phewh completed the Thorn bounty now, that was a test of patience! but boy was it worth it, I am converted from Scout rifles now.

Also completed the Bad Juju one, which was bang on time for the pulse rifle buff, and got Invective as well.

Game is handing me out Exotic bounties all over the place!?!

[Brother Agatone]

Lucky for you, I have to finish the crucible parts for thorn, invective, and bad juju, and I i have an exotic missive from Eris for another exotic bounty

[NinjaJohnno]

Thorn is well worth it, I haven't used Invective but looking at the stats/perks it seems pretty solid, Bad Juju will wreck in the Crucible once it's levelled up, pulse rifles had a damage buff of almost 10% recently.

[Brother Agatone]

I'm trying to figure out a fast way to get the crucible parts done

[NinjaJohnno]

Void shotgun or Fusion rifle whatever your better with, I know both are cheese extreme though.

If you have a Void primary even better, and a heavy as well, I think the Titan and I know the Warlock have Void nades and supers use those.

I would recommend control, you can see what points are getting capped and sneak up in people, also people tend to keep the same routes between cap points so you can ambush them.

[Brother Agatone]

Yea luckily I have a void fusion, void heavy, and void primary. The kd stuff for invective is what's getting me.

[NinjaJohnno]

tbh I just played and the Invective bounty just happened, I am pretty horrible at the Crucible as well, I just slowed the pace down and didn't rush into situations.

I really would like The Last Word now, I have the taste for hand cannons.

[NinjaJohnno]

ahhhh The Last Word from Nightfall, I am soooooo happy now.

[NinjaJohnno]

Anyone if interested Xur is selling Red Death.

 

Also, the Bungie forums, lol toxic or what, they are some real elitist pricks on there! least I had some lol's during my lunch.

[Brother Agatone]

I got red death like four days before he was selling it. Crotas raid. Also I have last word. I recently reached level 32 with my helm of saint-14. I've been hoarding armor engram for my warlock. Collecting high level gear for my level two hunter. And yes the Bungie forums are depressing, infuriating and hilarious all at the same time.

[NinjaJohnno]

lol the HOW DLC weapons are dropping in the Salvage playlist before HOW is properly released.

I will say since it's become widely known, every cheating sweaty *CENSORED* has started playing Salvage now.
