Destiny 2 [PS4/XBONE/PC] (Sept. 6, 2017)

I'm more scared of the forty floating diamond things -- farming four fragments to create a random key and then wandering around to find the specific diamond for each key is going to suck..

Those are actually really easy. It's more leg work than anything.

KhakisHD on Youtube (and I think Datto too) has a video of their locations.

I was wondering, are these for a different exotic, because some stuff in the quest makes me feel it's involved with Sleeper.

[Serra]

I don't believe it's for Sleeper -- I think someone got it last night from one of the quest lines (I think the one you get the hand cannon from culminates in it).

Also, regarding Redrix's Claymore:

Estimated that it'll take 2,200 to hit rank 3 -- you get 20 points a win, lose 10 for a loss (not counting streak bonuses).

[Fiendishone]

Heroic strike playlist bugged. Me, Death, and Killer did 3 strikes last night and only 2 counted towards weekly.

Noticed it after they left and was talking with Kas about the screen text changing from "Heroic strike playlist" to some random mission/strike/fuck if I know text.

Kas said he checked on Bungie's support site and mentioned they are aware of it.

So assuming incoming maintenance patch soon.

[Serra]

I had to do four yesterday as well -- assuming the new ones don't count, or was it one of the old ones?

Doesn't help that it's solar burn and everyone is still underleveled.. but yeah, it's a long and rough strike.

The floating diamond things aren't that bad; I spammed lost sectors yesterday to finish the Hive/Cabal culling step for Sleeper super quickly. Ended up with like 20 of the green things (which combine into 5 blue things for the diamond floaty...things).

Also ran a half dozen QP and competitive crucible matches last night. Not sure if SBMM got reset for the new rankings release or what, but I was dominating kids and I know I am not particularly amazing at PVP.

From talking with Fiend it seemed to be the Osiris ones.

[Fiendishone]

Was the Mercury one, taken blight boss, then shreiker strikes.
Only thing I can think of was before the last one we did exit the pain in the ass strike with the invisible disappearing vandal boss, then restarted the strike playlist. I just didn't pay attention to the text on screen to see it it still said "heroic strike playlist" at that time.

I believe quickplay emphasizes connection quality over skill and doesn't have any other system in place. For competitive, they did reset the matchmaking for the start of the new season/ranked.

So who wants to do Raids/Nightfall tonight? Or even just Call to Arms

[6souls]

Amazon Alexa's ghost app wasn't updated with the Warmind content.

Really? Or is API currently down? Because I think API is down.

I'm down to raid -- would like to knock out normal and then prestige leviathan.

[Wulfgang]

Down for NF or Raid Kas. And the new heroic modifiers have no radar with enemy melee hits beig a 1HKO (not Brawler, says insta kill in description). Such a troll in Arms Dealer, got killed by a random war dog like 4x.

[6souls]

Spoiler: show

Also, the Warmind campaign wasn't written by Bungie, instead by Vicarious Visions - https://twitter.com/atlasincognita/s...71536119828480

VV partially developed the DLC, as well.

[Kaslo]

Due to an issue impacting Rat King, we are temporarily disabling access to this weapon. Players may experience issues if they currently have the weapon equipped. Signing out and back in to Destiny 2 will resolve these issues.

God I have gotten the Ogre boss in escalation protocol to like 10% a half dozen times. Just cannot get over the hump.

[6souls]

Need those Valkyries. I got 3 banked right now for when I log in next.

[Myrrh_Quetz]

It’s great to see everyone back on Destiny
