Anyone else get the special white tier Auto Rifle that drops from the Knights that can be upgraded into an exotic? I got it last night. I kind of like little things like this. View Quote I am hoping to score it over the course of the weekend. That is step 1 in building the Necromancer. Was planning to reboot my Plan C but then I got the arc fusion rifle from the Crota raid. Really good charge rate and equal mag cap. Doesn't have the quick draw perk but does have rapid reload. |

FYI for those who don't know: First TDB mission "Fist of Crota" is now re-playable and you can run right past the witch in the beginning to find a Blade of Crota Knight in the next room. Kill it, go to orbit, reload the mission, kill it again, go to orbit, reload, etc. until you get the special white auto rifle. |

I play the missions as normal, I haven't really gone out of my way to find the Husk weapon. I figure I got plenty of time to stumble upon it by the time the hard mode raid is available.

My son ran the raid a few times with some of his friends last night. Exotic helmet, raid gauntlets, raid chest, just need raid boots. I'm gonna hop on here in a bit and do some bounties. Holler if you need somebody, and I'll switch to my Warlock and give it a shot or twelve.

I don't even know how to find randoms on LFG (don't know what it is). I know I'm missing out on a big part of the game, but I always miss the raid parties.

Normally we go start to finish in about 50 minutes. Last night was pushing two hours. Infuriating to say the least. Yeah, Atheon isn't a hard fight, but it can be a glitchy one sometimes. We've had a few runs when teleporting to Venus where the praetorian will appear out of thin air right at the top of the steps, not even a foot away from the party, like he'll be there before we can even pick the relic up. Not teleporting or anything mind you, like someone at Bungie just miraculously coded that thing in in real time, just poof, praetorian stomping your guts out before the first shot is even fired. Atheon not teleporting anyone so you never get Time's Vengeance, teleporting one person instead of three, walk out of the gate after a teleport and immediately get thrown right back in. Super frustrating, especially when everyone is doing what they're supposed to be doing and the party is getting shit on by stupid glitches. |

Ice Breaker is still the best sniper in the game, in my opinion. The advantage to Black Hammer is its higher impact and the fact it won't use up an Exotic slot in your inventory.

[#44]
That Black Hammer is not an exotic is a nice thing at times. I like to use Gjallarhorn for the raid, for example. That's kinda why I want Praedyth's Revenge as well, I didn't really have a good legendary sniper rifle.
Although now in most cases, I use Hezen Vengeance as a heavy and icebreaker for my special. That might change if I ever get an exotic primary I really like.
