What level? I opened two yesterday and got the sidearm and a second armor. I played early on David's lie of 305 (they were not) and decided "enough". -- nm - Spawn Oct 17, 07:53 35
- You have to be 305 for it to work, genius. -- nm - David Oct 17, 08:25
- oh, I opened them all on my Titan, who is 294, so I got 288 stuff. -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 07:58
- David was all kinds of wrong all day yesterday! -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 07:57 2
  - Yesterday? -- nm - Spawn Oct 17, 07:59 1
    - well, true, but also more than usual yesterday! -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:00
- He was dropping 300 engrams if your character was 305. - Shaun Oct 17, 07:55 29
  - I was at 302 and the two he dropped were 293. - Spawn Oct 17, 07:59 28
    - 293 is your base power level then, which all non-powerful/exotic engrams will drop at. -- (edited) - Shaun Oct 17, 08:00 7
      - right, you do not factor in the purple mod bonuses. -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:01 6
        
        Destiny 2 FYI -- David (aka David) Oct 16 '17, 17:01 Saladin is dropping 305 gear right now. - Spawn Oct 17, 08:03 5
        
        Figure out how the game works and get back to me. -- nm - David Oct 17, 08:26 3
        
        Your post made it sound like it was *news*, not the normal workings of the game. - Spawn Oct 17, 08:32 2
        
        It was only the second time last week that he had. - David Oct 17, 08:34 1
        
        So, the rest of the week he was dropping stuff below your true level? They need to fix that crap. -- nm - Spawn Oct 17, 08:36
        
        well, to be fair, if you slap a purple mod on it, it would be 298! -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:07
    - it is about enjoying the game, jeez. -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:00 19
      - Yeah, that was why I stopped. I would not have enjoyed continuing at that rate. I watched the 2nd and 3rd episodes of The Gifted, instead. -- nm - Spawn Oct 17, 08:01 18
        
        It was damn lonely in Destiny last night, ST is not representing well in IB -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:02 17
        
        Do you use a random number generator to decide which way you’re going next? - David Oct 17, 08:27 6
        
        yeah, because you need to have 4 people standing near one zone..... - groiny Oct 17, 08:30 5
        
        The game on the Raid map, I just started following you to watch because I was so confused by your “strategy”. - David Oct 17, 08:33 4
        
        like, you know the point of the game is to cap and KEEP zones capped, right? - groiny Oct 17, 08:39 2
        
        Hence my sword strategy. Number of kills are not important, just holding those zones. -- nm - Spawn Oct 17, 08:43 1
        
        we shall refer to David's control strategy henceforth as "Duck Duck Goose" -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:45
        
        Yes, run to the teammate while the whole other team capture our held zone. Sounds like a great plan. - groiny Oct 17, 08:35
        
        I have decided that I really do like using the sword in PvP. I was having fun with that yesterday. I wish I could flip the controls, though. Trigger - Spawn Oct 17, 08:04 9
        
        I used it on the Nightstalker Hunter with the invis roll equipped, it is a fun style of play, but frustrating at times. -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:05 8
        
        I love Foetracer so much. That extra bit of damage makes a wonderful difference in 1v1 battles. -- (edited) - Shaun Oct 17, 08:16 2
        
        yeah, it is super useful for that, I just try to get one shot on people so I can track them, it is almost not fair -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:21 1
        
        It's a really really good exotic for pvp. -- nm - Shaun Oct 17, 08:43
        
        It works well in capture games. I duck at B and wait for the lambs to come to the slaughter. -- nm - Spawn Oct 17, 08:11 4
        
        so pretty much like your camp with shotgun playstyle. -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:15 3
        
        But with hella-style points. -- nm - Spawn Oct 17, 08:22 2
        
        Quickfang? -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 08:25 1
        
        Think only Hunters can get it, so no. -- nm - Spawn Oct 17, 08:34
I opened 4. 1 piece of armour and it was a dupe cloak. - Shaun Oct 17, 07:51 1
- number 5 was probably your lucky one -- nm - decline Oct 17, 07:55
Number 7 was probably the lucky one - decline Oct 17, 07:43 2
- it already was 1am, I could not possibly stay awake for another one! -- nm - groiny Oct 17, 07:45 1
  - I got kicked to the main title screen after I dropped and kept getting "cannot connect to Destiny servers" errors, so figured that was a sign to call - JaxSean Oct 17, 07:50
