Only level 6 right now, it's a lot slower than beta was. They've turned down the exp gain (in beta they wanted ppl to max to test stuff)

[dx144]

That just means you have to kill more enemies Cru. Kill them, kill them all!

[CruciasNZ]

Fucking Hive doesn't give you any choice, SO.... MANY..... THRALLS......

 

Thank god for my green bullet hose, it can 2 shot them and has 70 rounds in a clip. Fully automatic with negligible recoil for a fully automatic

[CruciasNZ]

God dammit Destiny. You gave me a sword that could lunge across rooms, had aoe slams and could instant kill all but bosses. Then you took it away

[dx144]

Win for the non-beta players? =P

 

I'm going to get my copy in about an hour so then I'll be set to play once its installed for my Xbox One.

[CruciasNZ]

Just noticed the max level is 20, I'm 11 after ~7 hours. Seems the game follows the Diablo gear grind method of progression after 20

[dx144]

Well I'm installing at the moment, once its done I'll start playing =D

[Brother Agatone]

Mail doesn't arrive til two, and I have school and crew rowing until 7:30, how were the download times?

[dx144]

Not too bad really, the install took about 40-50 minutes for me so I just ate some food and watched recorded tv since I've learn nothing good is on TV during the day time...

 

The download was only 300MBs so it only took me a little bit of time to download it.

 

I fin Hive not that annoying more because on my travels I bumped into a Spider Walker or whatever it is called. Died multiple times doing very little as all the ammo I had left was for my Scout Rifle so I was lobbing grenades and throwing knives at its legs until it died... 

 

I have just done my first level on the Moon. That was fun...

 

Quite enjoyable game but would be better if I was playing with others as playing by yourself in an MMO just seems pointless...

[CruciasNZ]

Spider Walker is a Strike boss but you can walk into the area the Strike occurs in and fight it as a world boss. I've seen a few people in my travels but I've noticed that Dark Zones are phased, so I was fighting with a couple of randoms and when we stepped into the dark zone we all got separated.

 

Since the max level is 20 we won't really have to worry about those of us playing ArcheAge being left behind by those exclusively playing Destiny. 

 

O and if you thought the Spider boss was fun, wait till you see Phogoth. He's the end boss on the Moon Strike and he is FUCKING hard. Advice I can give you:

• Do NOT stand in the corridor to the boss room
  • This was a glitch in beta, stand in there and shoot him safely till he is dead. They've set it so you get a never ending spawn of Wizards, Knights (both Types) and Shriekers until you leave it
• Have a Warlock
  • If you run left after leaving the corridor and follow the wall all the way to the 'cliff' there is a sloping rockface that a warlock can jump down onto. Down there they will be safe from the boss and minions while waiting for their allies to respawn, if the lock is last guardian standing jump down rather than risk wiping and resetting the boss.
• Have lots of free time
  • Even if you do it near perfectly he takes 30 minutes
• His weak spot is a glowing canister under his chins, NOT his face

I really like the sheer amount of BOOM! available to me as a Voidwalker Warlock, but the self-revive Radiance of Sunslinger seems amazing for Strikes

[dx144]

I am about to unlocked the subclass for the hunter once I reach next level, I think I'll have a look at what stuff that gives you and if nothing catches my eye I'll keep going with the original stuff. Unless you can get both but only have one or certain equipment active.

 

I am going to the Moon again for some bounties I have, even have a bounty for Mars but I haven't been to Venus yet...

[Brother Agatone]

I only got to level five last night cause I had physics homework last night

[dx144]

Fuck physics...

[Brother Agatone]

You don't fuck ap physics, ap physics fucks you. (It really actually does)

[CruciasNZ]

I'm level 14 now since I stop playing it when Naia is online and obviously have work. Got some sweet Blue gear from both the Moon and Venus strike missions so far. Ironically Venus was the easiest, though it's the third one

[dx144]

That's good news about Venus then. =P

 

I only have one piece of Rare armour which I can't even remember where I got it from. Might have been a golden chest I found.

[NinjaJohnno]

Almost lvl 21 here on my Hunter, I prefer the Gunslinger sub class to the Bladedancer one.

I got a lvl 18 blue scout rifle, prefer this or the pulse to full auto.

And I have lvl 16 to 18 Blue, helm, chest and arms.

If people want a sweet farm spot for blue engrams try this place, I tried it for 1hr and got 3-4 blue engrams and quite a few greens.

Cru that wanker on the moon strike almost cost me a controller, boss is the hardest I tried so far, and like a mug I tried it on a lvl 20 heroic playlist strike the first time round, even some from the playlist strike on Mars aren't that hard.

I liked Venus and tbh the bit when you first meet the Vex I struggled with.

Really liking the game, I don't understand all the negative feedback, they have said they will add content for a long time yet.
