Why does everyobe like MIDA multi tool? Sight on it is complete motherfucking ass

two reasons why its absolutely dominant in PVP

1. the high caliber rounds perk causes your target to flinch, which sounds inocous but is annoying as FUCK. You get pushed slightly, your aim moves around, etc. At the appropriate range (medium to long) its an easy 1v1 win against someone without HC.

2. map radar is always on. Especially over D1 where the time to radar was really short between ADS/noscope, in D2 its 1-2 seconds so not having that delay is amazing in clutch situations

Radar always up, high caliber rounds that interrupt opponents and the fastest reload speed you can get.

Kicked from two Nightfall guided groups for only being 277. FeelsBadMan
Nightfall requires only 240 and only scales to 260. Anything above that doesn't matter. Fuckin idiots. Plus that defeats the entire purpose of guided games. Can't you give them a shitty rating or something?

Yes, and you should also be able to see their rating before you join their group, so just refuse any that look shady. You stay at the front of the line until you pick one according to Bungie.

Did the Nightfall this week and also managed to finish Rat King. Judicious use of upgrades and turning in faction tokens got me to 291 which aint too bad given that I started the week at 278. I fear that this week's Nightfall being so easy will spoil us for next week when it will once again be a kick in the dick.

So by thurs last week, got all three characters through weekly shit, including crucible, got pretty much most of the faction stuff done, New Monarchy fucking me the most with armor drops, and pretty much nothing to do until reset, I mean WTF destiny? Without the faction stuff, I would of been done by wed. And im definitely not some hard core dude these days. Maybe15- 20 hrs a week, if that.

They need to un-nerf this fucking game, Make Destiny Geat again.

LOL, doubt it all you want. Hardly played at all this week. Maybe I front loaded a 25hr week there in the beginning, but this is quickly fading. My total played time shows 94 hrs.

That's after you rerolled all your toons. You have one of each class now with 98 hours played. Your first screenshot showed three Titans with 106 hours played. The one after that had two Titans and a warlock after you deleted your highest playtime character.

You're like 200 hours in. The game has been out 26 days, including today. That's nearly 8 hours a day average.

Probably. It's easy to get sucked in. I don't think most people realize how much time they have already put in.

Oh and faction rally can suck me. I capped DO and never got arms or legs for my Hunter. I did get all the good weapons though. DO HC, FWC scout/auto,HC and NM auto. Still lame about the armor drops though. At least I got the cloak.

So supposedly the timetable for October is 10th Iron Banner, 17th Prestige Leviathan and 24th PC launch obviously.

Iron Banner doesn't normalize your power level, or at least it didn't in D1.

Iron Banner doesn't really require wins to get gear, a few wins helps out but you can get everything and lose 100% of the games, just doing the bounties (get X kills, play X games, etc). You can queue solo, and most people do. Its pretty much the casual PVP list with some extra rewards.

The play time is a bit misleading too, I've sunk a ton of time just afking at public events and running in to get a few hits off. Great way to farm engrams and tokens, you can be watching a TV show or working and just move every 3-4 mins, a new PE pops every 10 mins or so on Titan and both are right next to the fast travel point and usually have people doing them.

I mean, that still counts. That's still time put in to the game regardless of how much you're paying attention to it. No different than grinding battles in an RPG and just smashing the action button.

I look forward to this because I hate getting killed by some level 2 dude in crucible just cause he got like a half second drop on me.

And since trials this time around does, chances are IB does the same. It didnt really matter anyways since the Light level curves in PvP regarding power and light level were really conservative. I think in yr 2-3 you could be within 5 light levels below cap and still do like 95% damage. It was literally 1 point lower damage on a weapon type, lol. So it really didnt mean shit. And its not like it was hard to hit cap anyway in Yr2-3. And even if you were not, by the time you ground out some IB, you were at cap anyway since it dropped capped gear. It only really punished those that only played PvP full time, or those that purchased DLC late and were playing the catch up game. In yr 1 it was really fucked up because aside trials, it really fucked PvP players over since the only way to hit cap was the hard mode raid. so PvE players were just curb stomping full time PvP players with their hard mode raid gear on, because of nothing more than light levels. Kind of what WoW battlegrounds were when they first introduced them, raid geared players curb stomping others that didnt have it.

Also this time around its really confusing what really matters, is it the base power level, is it the total light level with mods? The game really tries to confuse you about this. Thsi time its really about the RNG and what you get from your weekly packages, one person might prosper, another might get shit for 2 weeks in a row and only raise his base by one point or some shit. People would really be fucked in D2 if they had the same 5 light level curve in IB or Trials. Im thinking the average light level is hovering around 295 for most people right now.

Does anyone know what video card I would need to run Destiny 2 on PC 1080 60fps? Do you think my old school Radon r9 280 do the trick?
