I managed to solo the Paradox/3 ghost shells this morning. It was tough going. Started the mission at 9.15, didn't finish until 10.30 but I still got the final ghost and handed it in to the FWC fembot. Any idea when the next stage of the quest will be available for me?

I'm thinking it won't be available until Paradox is the daily again. I'm in the same boat as I didn't bother with it first time around.

Yeah, there was something else happening that day (something Sleeper Simulant related I think) so I skipped it.

Keep me in mind when the daily comes up again and we'll knock it out quickly together.

Hi

I recently started playing Destiny and i am having a problem getting to second mission.

Ive completed mission one, gone to Set Destination, selected Earth but i cannot select any of the areas within Earth.

Ive watched YouTube vids and other gamers seem to be able to select an area and proceed.

Any ideas, my head is wrecked.

Thanks in advance.

You might need to go to the tower to complete/progress with the next part of the mission.

Is there anything highlighted in the map (like with a triangle or something) over the tower maybe?

You probably need to level up to 25 (assuming you bought The Taken King)

Really nice stats from Reddit about the classes in IB and the most common loadouts.

They need to fix this Shadowshot bug already. Pain in the hole not having quiver as an option for the super.

Had a crack at kings fall last night with five of the lads, got as far as the two sisters.

Just wanna say a big shout out to johnny, he was like the qui gon to my obi wan in episode one or the Denzel to my Ethan hawke in training day :pac:

And to the rest of the lads... Except whoever promised me tasty treats but instead I was killed and spawned below... I will have my vengeance :P

MerryDespot · 22-10-2015 7:41am

Raid #2 last night.

My 'lucky' hunter got a weaker shotgun than he had before, weaker gloves and weaker gloves.

And the game cleared me out of moldering shards too.

But cheers to Mick and Manad for the help with the Sunless Cell strike. Dark Drinker is now mine!

Presume the reason for this is that any Titan taking in Defender knows what they're doing and putting bubbles onto points with wild abandon, which will really help the team.
I go in and I want firey hammers to kill you with.

PetKing · 22-10-2015 7:58am

Thanks for the raid last night guys. All went straight forward enough, I was having huge difficulty woth ads after detonating the bombs for aome reason and a few silly wipes caused by myself on Oryx (need to learn the difference between clockwise and anti-clockwise!!). Two pairs of boots, the fusion and rocket launcher were my rewards. That stupid ghost continues to elude me. Stuck with a 275 dread explorer. I was watching higher blue ghosts drop all last week in IB, I'm just unlucky with rng on that one. Can someone point me to info on cheesing through act 2 please? I didn't realise this was a thing??

I will then suppress you with my grenade and scheme while you punch air instead of throwing a firey hammer of death :P

Generic Dreadhead · 22-10-2015 9:42am

So how geared up is everyone for Hard Mode tomorrow?

Bungie said it'll be 300-320 for the Raid, so I'm guessing 300 for the Warpriest, 310 for Golg and the Sisters and 320 for Oryx

I managed to get my Titan to 308 and my Warlock to 307

Mickeroo · 22-10-2015 9:48am

Have 2 characters at 307 and one at 308. Oryx will hardly be 320 will he? He's only 300 in normal mode and max possible level is 310, so would have thought 310 would be more likely.

When's the weekly bulletin usually out? They'll likely announce recommended light then.

dudeeile · 22-10-2015 9:58am

Titan sitting pretty at 302. Have a 270 ghost that is holding him back. I'll be running normal until I nab a 300ish ghost and that will only push me to 305 with current gear. I could also do with a better and higher heavy that would move him up another level or two.

Being the long weekend coming I'd hope to get 3 normal runs behind me so the possibility of decent drops are good.

Think positive and screw you RNG.

gimli2112 · 22-10-2015 10:02am

Haven't raided much so my LLs are mostly down to grinding Titan 306 and the other two at 301. I'll be steering clear of HM for a while.
Doesn't anyone remember one hit kill hobgoblins? I'm pretty sure I could get my Titan up two levels but it would mean thrashing some 310 exotics, which I'm not going to do.

Be interesting to see how they implement it. If they put in no respawn some of the sections will be more or less a wipe if anyone goes down.

It'll be hammers until the end of Jolly Holiday for me. Haven't been working on it lately but it's sitting there at 77% so one or two monster games required. I'll be looking for a fireteam over the weekend to put an end to this.

Defenders awesome if you have a full fireteam but other than that I'd pick hammers.

AdamD · 22-10-2015 10:04am

No respawns pretty much guaranteed IMO. My guys are only 303,303,305 so will be tough enough, was hoping to have Trials runs in first to boost them a few levels.

It was announced in the patch notes of latest update. Recommended level is 310

With a bit of weapons juggling and a cheeky ghost swap all three are between 300 & 309.

It all depends on the changes hard mode brings but I reckon that should be enough to get past the Warpriest and hopefully get a drop and push on from there.

Assuming revives are again disabled as in the last two hardmode raids will a death automatically lead to a wipe?

Can see Sunsingers being a big help here again but overall what are the chances of a team surviving the Warpriest or Sisters with only 5?

If you leave the 4th platform empty the sister are very doable with 5, though with it being hard mode DPS will be more of an issue now probably.

How kind of you to actually equip your good weapons in this instance, the unlevelled Hacksaw and Hereafter and Blue ghost are not gonna help :pac:

I would say you could take 1 death per part, 2 would want to be a really hero effort on behalf of the other 4 guys left alive.

Well given the Normal Mode is "Recommend 280 light" but scales up to 300 on Oryx, I can see the Hard Mode scaling up to 320 given that the drops will allow you to edge beyond 310 and closer to 315-320.

I would say hitting 320 will be techincally impossible though if they don't introduce 320 Artifacts (maybe hard mode will have a Raid Artifact)

Warpriest 310
Golg and Sisters 315 maybe?
Oryx himself 320

Which leads me to the next question....
Who on PS4 would be up for a Hard Mode run at 7pm on Friday?
If we can get 6 players with 300+ light and a decent bit of experience we should be able to take a decent stab at it

The drops will allow us to scale up will they? Will they ****!

I've run the raid 10 times (across three characters) now without getting better gear than dropped for me on the first couple of attempts.

I've had more 310 gear drop through ToCs used in vanguard strikes than from raid gear.

DPS and clearing ads will be key alright and will become easier over time as we increase in light.
A balance of Armour and Recovery builds over Agility. Raid armour when runnignthe spark will be a bonus.
The first few runs will be challenging.

But is was 99 cents yo!!

The 304 hacksaw was woefully underpowered in fairness, totally outclassed by a 297 Not Like the Others. That Scout rifle with explosive rounds is the business, lots of fun and very effective with mobs.
