For real tho I've basically given up and concede that Gunslingers are no longer the top PVPers in the game.
As someone who initially started out as a Titan and managed to do okay in PVP despite the low-kill potential of FoH it does feel nice that a different class is the king and Titans are no longer being shat on.
......
That's only once I remove myself from the thought of how stupid the sunbreaker super is. It's hilarious that you can cream on a guy for a whole match but once he turns that on he can turn into a god for those 10 seconds and pick up enough kills to break even for the rest of his shitty performance during the match. It's ridiculous that it isn't the class as a whole which contributes to sunbreakers being at the top, but solely their obscene super.
It's basura Bungie.

Gloves from Abyss.
Chest or boots from Bridge.
Class item from Deathsinger.
Helmet from Crota.
Thanks for that IB train guys, went to goddamn town every match I played, and I went from 5 to 11 throwing knife kills! It feels good sometimes to know that I can actually be decent at this game when I'm not playing with randoms lol. Also got the kill streak part of the weekly bounty done which is pretty good for me, I don't go on killing streaks very often >_>
45 min till 10 hrs depending on the communication and skill level of the group. Having 6 ppl helps and can do most of the raid 5 or even 4 but later parts will be very difficult .
And yes there are checkpoints which you can continue from any time till next Tuesday

So what's the best 200 emote? I really like sarrow, bow and the throat cut but can only get two!

Shotguns. Freaking. Suck.
Ok...so what was noteworthy about how Crota's End dropped loot?

Actually pretty good. Crota was a giver.

For a full group of first timers, anywhere from 2-3 hours.
You get a checkpoint after every encounter, so yes, you can resume from there anytime during the current week. Checkpoints and loot drops reset on weekly reset (tuesday).
Yeah I didn't make any forward progress either this week.
I got a single piece of armour between my three characters today (not including class items). A 306 chest piece for my Warlock. All the other drops were weaker than what I already had as well.
I have only seen a single sniper rifle drop so far.
I haven't gotten many arc weapons in the game since TTK dropped. I have tons and tons of void weapons and plenty of solar but not many arc. I haven't had an arc heavy drop yet. I have two arc snipers (just got a 1000 yard stare arc today) and two arc shotguns.. And that's it.
I used to have too many arc weapons.

Gitch the Warsat. Rest is easy.
You gotta work for them coins!
I feel like the only person here that actually uses sidearms, both in crucible, and PvE.
They take some practice to get useto, but they are 1000x better than the fail that is the Vestian Dynasty.
My Jabberhakke does 49 a headshot at auto rifle range, and 60 at shotgun range.
In PvE, its damage is similar to a high impact scout, doing 1,500-2,500 a headshot on level 36 enemies.
985 at auto rifle range.
345 at scout rifle or sniper range.

Just got matched up in a 6v2 Iron Banner match. Is someone going to tell Bungie that fixing their damn matchmaking is a bigger priority than sucking the fun out of the game by nerfing attack values and perks on guns?
Also, WTF is up with the shotguns? I was getting shot from across the room by Conspiracy Theory-D? Shotgun nerf, my butt.

Armor was not a drop from a single boss, like Golgoroth being the only one dropping all 3 pieces of raid armor.

Do Crucible bounties work for IB also?

I have that gun with Speed Reload, Reactive Reload, and Spray and Play. It's not bad--it's just not my playstyle.
Not to sound like an ass, but why are people having such a hard time with the Warsat on the NF? Don't get me wrong, it super sucks, but it's not impossible or anything. Just make sure you take out everything, especially the Captains, ASAP. Did it twice this morning with biggy and Toast, we wiped maybe 3-4 times the first time and twice the second time. What exactly is giving folks problems there? We honestly had a harder time the first time Saber was the Heroic strike where it was Taken with additional reinforcements that first week.

It's all in the name of stretching out the content. Which I mean, they have the right to do that, but it's just disappointing. Especially since the gear you get can go from a minuscule upgrade(300->301) to a big upgrade (300->310), but in the name of stretching out content that's what had to be done.
It's obvious they're working on Destiny 2. Whether Destiny 2 will come out next year or the next remains to be seen, but they have to keep us occupied until then. How better than to make progression into a drip feed of sorts?
When you start thinking too much about it, it's offputting ._.

Captains. Your shield doesn't recharge. Enemy shield resistance. Overwhelming ads. Captains. Easier to just glitch and move on to get crappy rewards.
I don't get good enough rewards to deal with that crap.

Side arms are excellent for shooting phalanx arms.

The 20 plus shards for the raids does work pretty good for killing oryx. Got the scout at 300(meh)and sniper at 305.

Black Hammer was fantastic. Rocket launcher was good. Everything else was alright.
Drops wise, I'd have to say VoG > KF > CE.

A lot better. Only thing I need from Crota is Necro. But I'm in no hurry. That's "the" exotic. I expect a small drop rate.
Let me put it this way. It took me an entire year to get the VoG sniper. By the time I got it. It was obsolete, because of TTK.
That's not what I'm asking. If folks are complaining about the distribution of loot in KF, I'd like to know how it stands in comparison to the previous two raids.
Crotas loot was way better drop rate than VoG.
To this day, I will still get runs on VoG where all I get is shards and energy.
Crota is almost guaranteed to give a weapon, and armor at some point in the raid, unless you are super duper unlucky.

I've been playing IB but I seriously don't know why, lol.
Can I request a ban(not sure how this works)? I need to force myself away from this game for a while and be being able to come here all day everyday makes that hard. The game is just a drag now.

The drop rate was 100x better. The loot itself wasn't all that. Black Hammer was the only standout.

are you me? I got a 310 monte carlo from oryx too

Ah.
In all honesty, it all feels like normal RNG for me. Each raid I have had something elude my grasp for a very long time. For VoG, it took me forever to get the boots and Fatebringer. Crota's End gave me who knows how many helmets and scout rifles, never got the hand cannon. King's Fall has given me at least three chest pieces, two gloves, one helmet and no boots.
Overall, it feels the same to me. Good ole' RNG.
Yeah I don't have a problem with people glitching it or anything, I'm just surprised at the number of people that seem to be having difficulty with it, I find a lot of other things in the game harder that most people don't >_>.

VOG drop rate was no where near what crota and KF are.
Took me forever to get fate bringer although the Vision dropped week after week. -_-
A ban would ban you from posting on NeoGAF all together, but you could still read posts.
You would need to PM a mod or the admin to request a ban.
