tell them you're one of the rare breed in gaming, you're a girl
then they'll go easy on you

j/k

anyway, not much tips for crucible, except to play more, and get familiar with each of the maps
I sucks at it also when started, always at the bottom ranking
but after you play more, gradually you move up the ladder, now I'm at the mid ranking most of the time
also, gears doesn't factor much in the crucible, as all of the stats are normalized, except the passive for the gears will give you slight edge.
Only exception is the Iron Banner, which no normalization of gears,
but seems it's imbalance also, you can see the youtube video of a low level player kicking the asses of those high level players with a Lv1 stock auto rifle

Add me up too.. fsf_chai

I think what they mean is higher chance for public events

right now the chances are very random, sometimes I can wonder around for hours during patrol but never get any
then sometimes immediately I got a public event when doing strike

then just few days ago I complete 3 events in a row continuously on the moon!!
first was destroy the spider tank, then went to next area, defend warsat already in progress, so hop in
then next area the hellmouth straight get this destroy the deploy thingy
and did I mention I already did 2 other public event on other mission on that day?

how I wished i got the public event gold tier bounty on me that time, that would be my record time of solving that bounty
