I'm taking a break with my Hunter who is now at 309 and will concentrate on my newly created Titan. Is there a fast way to get his light up or do I need to play through all of the missions again?

it takes freaking forever to level a subclass now. This struggle is real. I made a big dent leveling up Defender by using it in Iron Banner though. I wish it was easier to bring vendor legendaries and exotics up to higher light levels. I finally got a Hung Jury this weekend, and I now have about 7-8 pieces of gear that need to be infused. The exotics are the worst, though, since I have 0 exotic shards. |

Subclass leveling is terrible. I think the XP required is something like 400,000-450,000. There is the payable booster item that fully levels a subclass but it runs you $30. Depends on what your time is worth.
Recently all I have been doing (and enjoying) is grinding strikes and using coins. I had my first Grasp of Malok drop yesterday with a very average roll. Fire rate is insane. I would like to get a decent one to try for PVP. Still would like a Fatebringer-esque Imago Loop and a perfect PVE 1000 Yard Stare roll. I haven't touched my alternate characters in probably over a month. |

I don't even remember the last time I logged into destiny. 3 weeks maybe.
Just the aggravation of the raid has killed my motivation for the whole game. That's literally the only way to get high level weapons to put into the ones you actually like to use, but you get shards or a weapon lower than what your using. All that time for so little, or just crap rolls on the drops altogether. I love getting gloves with fucking fusion rifle loader, grenade throw and boots with more sidearm ammo over and over again. it's fun to play when you have a good group but no matter how much fun it is, in the end your still getting a big steaming pile of shit for a rewards. Your 310+ and get a legendary engram? Heres a 275 chest piece for the 15th time or insert any other item you've gotten a dozen of with a piss poor roll. |

To get the best gear you must grind the same event over and over again. This event also requires 5 other people and you need a few hours set aside to complete. All this for a CHANCE at good gear. I'm still planning on playing as it's a beautiful game with amazing gun play/controls but it's going to take some truly fresh content to re-engage me seriously again. |

I'd play more if they fixed the connections in crucible.
I've been told the changes to connectivity in iron banner were meh, some say good, some say no difference, but I dunno. The gear grind for me is basically over. Or at least I'm not messing with it anymore. I can make it to a high enough light level with any of my characters to not really be bothered too much by stuff in the hard mode raid. The extra two or three light points I lack for 320 I'm not gonna lose sleep over. And with that as well, there ain't no real reason for me personally to do the hard raid or the challenge modes anymore either. I logged in for the first time in a couple weeks over this past weekend. Turned in a few bounties, picked up my Chaperone that's been sitting waiting for me since the week before last or whenever it was, and otherwise had no real desire to play the game anymore. I won't say Destiny is dead; there's a part of me that thinks the developers have something in their back pocket to counter some of the big spring and summer releases. But for now, I ain't really feeling Destiny. |

This may be a lost cause but I'm looking to grind the Omnigul strike tonight for a good Grasp of Malok drop. Does anybody want to join in on the misery?
 The good thing is it is a quick grind: kill Omnigul on hill, wipe, and repeat. The bad thing is the abysmal drop rate on the weapon and then RNG on the perks. |

I know the topic keeps coming back for it, but I wanted to pop in and say they are doing an open Division beta on the 21st for xbox, 22nd for everyone else. I know Cam and a few others wanted in, so I wanted to post it here so they could see it. Not sure if you need to sign up at the Ubi site or not though.

You get a guaranteed 310 Special or Heavy. I'll see if we can set something up for Sunday evening and have a nice leisurely NM raid. If you haven't already sign up for the https://www.the100.io/ It's a scheduling and matching site for Destiny which makes it a great tool for pulling groups together for event. |

The game gives you a 300 attack Conspiracy Theory with something like range finder and rifled barrel for completing whatever one of the first Vanguard quests is...and it's stupid good in PVP. All the talk of Bungie nerfing shotguns and perks or whatever, and they basically give everyone the perfect roll high impact PVP shotgun from a quest.  |

Prior to the holiday break we mentioned a second, larger update slated for Spring. That content release will feature a significant Light increase, a bunch of new gear to earn and equip, and new challenges for PvE players seeking some more fun experiences and replayability.
Beyond that, the team is focused on delivering a large expansion later this year, and a full Destiny sequel in 2017. Only relevant content from the weekly update. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE THE OLD CONTENT USEFUL! I'd farm my ass off for a set of upgradable VoG armor, even non elemental versions of the weapons. |

In the tower hanger, to the right after you walk down the stairs.
Peregrine Greaves - no. Nighthawk - worth picking up if you like blasting things in PVE with golden gun. Obsidian Mind - maybe. Not as good as it once was, but the current content doesn't really help it shine either. Judgment call on your part. Year two gauntlet engram, legacy helm engram. |

Skill gap in PVP amazes me. I played Crimson Doubles with Sandman and was doing very well. Played about 12 games and only had 1 game where I finished negative.

Check it out: After the event is over, we'll deliver Ghosts to the Postmaster Anyone who has competed in seven matches will receive one You had to actually compete though - no suicide pacts! Your Ghost will be Chocolate or Crimson - the odds are even 320 Light will be guaranteed - the odds are totally in your favor Packages will be addressed by account, not character Qualifying players will receive their Ghost by February 23rd If you've already put up the good fight in seven matches, you're on our list. If you want in on this, you still have time to earn your reward. Crimson Days comes to an end with the Weekly Reset on February 16th. Grab a partner and throw down. We'll have something sweet for you when all is said and done - whether you win or lose. |
