Yeah, I might be wrong but I think ranking up in IB will be more efficient. Then I could buy the chest, get lvl 32 gloves, and save the marks for weapons.
Sorry I couldn't join you this morning - I had to leave for work. Of course, after I said that to you, I played a game or 3 more and ended up an hour late to work. ahh. Will play later tonight.

This is correct. Vendor version beats P&T in impact and reload, and doesn't take up that coveted exotic spot that Thunderlord rightly deserves.

This is best combo
I started IB at 20, play smart and you'll be fine.
E: oh shit lol your weapons. Yeah you'll do good

Need to run one more NF. This time on my wittle hunter. Anyone need a hand? He's level 31 now and brings a full stock of arc weapons.

AWW YEAH
Its going to be a fucking massacre. Gonna roll with Fatebringer and also the Lucky C exotic build on my hunter.
I was on as a 32, and there was this one guy who was level 26 and doing very well. If we went head to head I'd just thump him, but he just played smart and was always near top of leaderboard.

You're gonna be crushed as a lvl 26. It's 3 levels.

After playing more then normal and grinding and being abused by the cruelty of RNG the last few weeks I have finally hit 32.
You are already dead.

Gamertag is Truelize
I like long walks on Mars looking for Relic Iron, farming Black Wax Idols underground in the beautiful brown Russian wastelands and just can't get enough of shooting stuff in the face parts.
Add me to play Nightfalls, Weeklies, Raids and Dailies.
PS. I have a level 31 of each class and too many pretty weapons to name.

That makes no sense. Bungie not promising what IB is all about. A 26 should not be doing well.

This just motivated me to live. I'll give it a couple rounds and eject if I'm seeing red lol

I'll add you.
A skilled 26 > a crappy 31
Not everyone is 31 or 32 though. Definitely players in the 20s in there.

I still can't decide.
I got an LDR from a Vanguard package, but it's Solar.
I guess I will play with both. LollipoPReapeR has a good idea.
Sometimes IB can actually throw me off I was fighting a guy who caught me off gaurd and it was taking me longer than usual to die and I got confused, I ended up killing the guy but I probably could have done better in the shoot out.
3x NF
Hunter: Ruin Wings (as you can see I don't have a Titan)
Warlock: Hide n Seek - Arc - Grenadier, Quickdraw, Full Auto Perk (any good)
Hunter: Plug One.1 (Void - Vacuum, Accelerated Coils, Slide Further)
What I used:
Fatebringer
P&T
One Way Ticket 000 - Arc - Tracking + Fieldscout + Who's Next (Destroyed everything in it's path)

I don't think any team coordination matters against low levels. Your 25 guy should be doing no dmg to anyone 30+. I would like to know if mid-20's can still do dmg to a 32. If they do then IB is still nerfed for the masses.
IB 2.0 was supposed to fix that. Even DeeJ posted an image of a red ?? high level guy against a low level.

But can a 26 even do dmg on a "??" player? In PVE it shows as "Immune"
Only the useless class item.
Thunderlord.
Use an arc LDR.
Edit beaten multiple times. But my load out will be:
The trusty Bringer of Fate
The sexy new LDR in arc flavor
Shiny maxed Lord of the Thunder
Bring it Septic Tank Prime* - you're toast.
*deafmedal's name for him
Hey deaf! This time I have a FB too!
Last time he stole all the kills with Fatebringer.
That was a fake image. That doesn't happen in the real game.
If you're 3 levels difference you get a decent advantage, but The Dark Below made it so easy to get to 31, I wouldn't expect to see many instances where it feels much different.
mid-20's can't do shit to anyone in 30. If someone is too high of a level for you, their level shows up as "??". If you're a sub-30, It's about picking your targets.
Yes, it does.

Thanks for letting me jump in. Always nice to get all 3 NFs done early.
Have you actually seen the "??" or are you basing that off the Weekly Update image?

anybody running the VOG ?
So IB is living up to the promise? That sounds better

That makes sense and was always ridiculous but I'll admit I used to leave and come back on stupid nightfalls like last weeks so I'm not one to point fingers.
System and difficulty would help.
I'll be on later to run it on ps4, say 5EST.
I've played IB when I got to 20, I've seen the "??" of death plenty of times.

Nightfall hell yea...nothing at all.
#1: Sniper Rifle (3 Asc Energy)
#2: 11 Asc Energy
#3: Legendary Engram (2 Asc Energy!)
Also a Vanguard rank up which gave me 1 Asc Energy!
An epic haul of 17 Asc Energy!

I know what you're saying, that's what I wanted.
IB 2.0 is basically the same as IB1.0
Someone posted a chart of the damage fall off, and it's minimal.
I was playing as a 26 vs a 30 and the biggest difference I could tell was that I couldn't kill them with one sniper headshot. It only did 194 damage, but I was using a low impact sniper that wasn't fully leveled.

Thunderlord.
Use an arc LDR.
I can see that being a devastating combo. Too bad I have no arc LDR. Those LDR hit like a Mac truck.
Maybe I'm wrong then, but I've never seen it when I was playing as a 26 vs. 30. What level difference do you have to be?
