No I meant 305 with mods.

Exodus Clash with rings sounds really tough/annoying.
Seriously Bungie, no one will mind if you do a manual intervention and switch it to a different strike because the prestige is still broken.
Titan is pretty dull too, since there are only 2 public events.
I guess it's time to run my 3rd alt and do the raid. Hopefully it'll be easier to get in raid groups this week since people aren't overdosing on Iron Banana.

He's currently doing it on normal and keeps dying on Thaviks so unknown on prestige yet.

You only get 1.
Thanks, someone let me know on DTG also.
I guess my memory is going, I was sure I'd get 3 tokens for doing one on Io. Went there because I was at 17 and wanted to shoot for Hunter armor, did a Heroic thinking I'd get to 20. Then saw the same thing on Titan.

Wait... The season 1 of IB is over?
I can't play the game atm but I was at 9 packages out of ten for the milestone :'(

This was just the first round of IB, no one knows exactly when the season will change but I think most are guessing it could be around the first DLC. You should get another chance or two for that last package.
Bungie is going to discuss seasons during Twitchcon on Friday.

Sounds like a pass.... haven't done a single prestige NF since release. Oh well, I guess I'll do them on PC.
What are the changes with the prestige raid? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Well guys
At least we finally should be getting more news
With PC release, Twitch stream, and Prestige raid
Maybe the cycle will start shifting in the right direction? Hell first expansion is in December which isnt far at all. Im ready for some good news after all the bad

Convert 3 blue to purple
Break down the purple
Create a weapon mod with two purple parts.
1/4 a chance at a kinetic mod. Should take you 10 min tops.

They're not releasing this at all are they, like the original raid? Letting people work out the new mechanics as they go.

If you go into ypur mod inventory you can dismantle them. Dismantling a legendary mod gives you 1 mod component. If you take 2 mod components to gunsmith you have the option of crafting them into one legendary armour or weapon mod.
This gives you a 1/4 shot of getting kinetic as the only other options are the elemental mods.

Member
You build up a stock of legendary mods
Break down the ones you dont use for mod components
Use mod components to craft a mod you want (by rolling for it with rng lol)
That is true... Somone mentioned they saw the changes already. So I was like, where???

So it's back to playing to the RNG Gods for an auto rifle mod to drop?

Isnt prestige raid on the 18th?
So unless they datamined the changes...

Not really. 1 out of 4 isn't anything compared to other drops in the game.
It'll take 10 min to get what you want here, tops.

It is a lot quicker than you would think. I usually get enough components to roll 5 or 6 new mods and will get one or two each time.
Jesus I miss Control already... My first two games for Call to Arms this week were Clash where there was never even one second where the other team left their death ball of 4 people. And the guy on my team who kept grabbing power ammo in the first game was a sniper...
Couldn't even trigger mercy rule because you don't get a lot of kills travelling in a 4 person death ball, you just never die... At least control gave me an option to do something to avoid their stupid deathballs...

Titan is a boring planet but it ballances out with the quickest Flashpoint
As for Kinetic Weapon Mods.
I dismantle two purple mods that i have too many of and trade to Gunsmith for a Weapon Mod.
1 out 4 chances of getting a Kinetic Weapon Mod.

Yah, I ran a few heroic PE last night and was only getting one planetary token at the end
You know, I get that we're all consumers and everything and have the right to complain when products are buggy, but we all understand that game development is hard and the tiniest error/sometimes something you don't even expect can cause problems and bugs, right?
Sure. Not really relevant to this situation though.
1. A prestige nightfall shouldn't be broken to the point of being locked from completion. This should be tested before release.
2. Assuming it went past QA, this is the second time this NF is active, and the bug was discovered last time. Not fixing a bug in that time period is shameful.
3. Assuming the bug is too hard to fix in this short time, remove this NF from rotation. But they didn't.
You know what they took out ASAP upon finding a bug? Tess Everis' Bureaucratic Walk Dance emote from her Bright Silver purchase inventory. It seems priority is given to items that affect real world economy.
But please, be my guest. Lower your standards. I'm not going to. Fuck Bungie

I'm always amazed at how much I enjoy this game around reset. New challenges, new nightfall, a bunch of great Crucible matches - all great fun.
Obviously the fun wears off when the content dries up and when friends aren't playing later in the week. I'd like a few more challenging activities that are flexible with numbers. Getting 4 people interested in Trials is always an issue, and I can forget about the Raid. Can't be assed with LFG.

Just once in a while.
So uh, a new special bundle at Eververse today.
2000 silver (so I think $20) for 7 Bright Engrams, 7 copies of the Golden Trace shader, 500 Bright Dust and a ship that's apparently exclusive to the bundle.
One Bright Engram is 200 silver so I guess the extra 600 silver is for the 7 shaders, the ship and 500 Bright Dust. Honestly not sure if that's a deal or not.

That "real world economy" item (I'm assuming you mean to imply that they prioritized this because they are so money-grubbing)... removing it from the store isn't exactly something that benefits them in terms of profit.
That emote can be abused to gain a gamebreaking competitive advantage. It is the worst kind of a bug because it's both harmful to the play experience of players when leveraged by other players, and involves something that is not by default available to all players.
Obviously the fact that the prestige Nightfall is broken for this strike should be a priority issue to hotfix, but "inability to complete the Prestige Nightfall for this strike" isn't on the same level as "people who have this cosmetic item can abuse it to gain a competitive advantage over other players." They are an order of magnitude apart in terms of triage.
Heh. Seems like it's always controversial to suggest this, like I'm being completely unreasonable, but I'll try one more time. If you find yourself saying "Fuck _____" where the blank is the developer of a videogame you're playing, stop playing that game, immediately, forever. I don't get why anyone does this to themselves and I've never heard a good answer.
It's just not worth it. Play games and patronize developers that you like and want to support.
Don't mean to be asking you in particular for justification btw sephi. I see this shit all the time, so my suggestion is rhetorical. Maybe I will convince someone else out there who for reasons unexplained simply cannot stop playing a game they hate.
Haha. Nothing involving Eververse/Silver is "a deal." Only consider spending any real-world money if you want to 100% support Bungie and the current state of Destiny 2 development.
I'm not lowering my standards. I just don't see a reason to get so upset over something as trivial as this.
I'm not trying to come after you about this. I completely understand why you feel that way. It's a valid feeling. I just feel like it's a waste of energy.
Apparently a confirmed workaround for the Prestige NF bug:

My IB total was 25 crates but didnt get a full armor set, missed out on the helmet. Got all guns except scout rifle and sniper but I wish I had the helmet >.<
I randomly got that from a Crucible engram last night.
See tag. I have slightly more affection for Tyra whom I've taken every engram to in D2. I'm still without Orpheus Rig myself though.

Such an awesome piece. Other night on EDZ while doing the glimmer event I could keep tethering groups every 15 seconds. Non stop super for a good few minutes.
I don't hate the game. I enjoy it playing it but so many ass backwards decisions dampen the experience that could've been so much better. For example the IB reward system, or bugs like wiping at the raid and not being able to respawn and having to go to orbit and do castellum/underbelly again. Or the prestige NF bug.
Likewise, I'm on the 'Fuck Capcom' train but still enjoy playing SFV to an extent. That game's not as fun for me as SF4 was, and D2 isn't as fun as D1 was. Trust me I wouldn't be playing or have bought them in the first place if I hated them. I just don't have much patience for companies that falter then don't communicate or fix their shit. Capcom's finally turning it around with AE. I'm guessing Destiny 2 will reach that point in a year (or three).
The reasoning behind 'Fuck ______' where _____ is a developer of a game is that if enough people say it, perhaps they take notice. I don't know if they care or don't, since all they communicate is 'Friends are the real end game' or whatever.
Seems like a terrible deal since you can get 5 Bright Engrams for 800, the other 2 are 200 each, so only 1200 Silver for the 7. Or pay 1600 for 10, 3 more for 400 silver less! 800 Silver for a guaranteed ship and 7 shaders sounds awful.
But anyway, I don't see this deal available, weird. Are they region specific? The only eververse "deal" I ever saw was the one that came with a guaranteed coldheart skin.
Finally got mine today, what a sigh of relief. I had deleted and re-made my hunter 4 times already for the free exotic engram at the end and resetting powerful engrams (they still have a high exotic chance, but drop at your current power level not over it) for more chances at, glad to not be doing that anymore.
