nexus still ok ma

solo omnigul will be nightmare

Does all raid gear upgrades using Radiant Shards only? So all those ascendant shards I save for raid gear is all but useless?

Radiant Shards and Energy only apply to gears you gotten from Crota's End. Ascendant materials still are used for the rest.

how come i keep on getting radiant energy, not radiant shard from crota's end i have one raid gear leg need upgrade

Ha2..u guys all expert, I'm still trying to figure out how to jump, aim and shoot in mid air..

It is random. sometimes you will get shard sometimes energy.

i no expert.....
my jump also sux hardly can estimate distance

if you lucky, public event will sometime drop radiant shard/energy

i keep seeing ppl mention about Despot & Sultan...
Any speciality about this 2 weapons?

Not sure if there's any special on those. If not mistaken those are rare weapon.

if somehow the weapon is special is probably because of the perk.

If the radiant material drop does not in your favor, try leveling the crota's bane reputation from eris to rank 4 so that you can

exchange material from energies to shard.

Sifus, I need advise. Below are my details, I'm not gonna lie, I really really need a mentor.

Platform = PS3
PSN = ZoziVora
Hunter = Lvl 27
Subclass = Bladedancer Maxed, Gunslinger lvl 3
Dark Below Expansion = Yes

Gear status = 2 Legendary Gear piece ( Boot and Glove ) Others all Rare type.
Weapon stat = 1 Legendary Fusion Rifle ( Others all rare )

Vanguard = Rank 2
Crucible = Rank 0 (Bad connection, cant pvp well)
Cryptarch = Rank 3
Iron Banner = Rank 1


My next course of action (I planned it) is to try my best to get my Vanguard Rank to 3 and hopefully get enough Marks by the end of this week and get a Legendary Armor. I have 7 strange coins now, hopefully can manage through a weekly mission and add some more to my collection.

Other than that, I usually farm in Venus at the spot where fallen and vex are fighting each other, hoping to get some good engrams. But so far I've only managed to get Rares and never find any Legendary ones. I don't feel like I am progressing. I'm quite lost. I need to know if I am doing the right thing or at least heading towards the right direction.

I don't have enough friends in my PS3 friendlist to do raids and I doubt I can be of any use for now.

And IF any of you sifus need someone for a spot in your raid fireteam and wouldn't mind taking a newbie in, I am willing to take any spot offered. I need the experience badly. Here are some details that you could use to consider.


Raids = 0 experience
Nightfalls = 0 experience
Has Dark Below Expansion.

Weapons efficiency (5 is rated highest) = Primary Weapon ( 5 On Pulse, 4 on Hand Canon, 4 on Auto, 3 on Scout Rifle )
Special Weapon ( 5 on Fusion, 4 on Sniper Rifle, 1 on Shotgun )
Heavy Weapon ( 4 on Machine Gun, 3 on Rockets )

Super Ability = I don't make it a habit to use it, I use it only when absolutely needed. Very good in it.
Knife ( Blink Strike ) = Invisibility perk, normally reserved for reviving teammates or to escape.

Strength = Very GOOD runner, if lead by veterans who loves rush passing through enemies towards objective, I can follow very well even in hostile environment much higher level than me. . Good in Positioning myself during combat/supportive role. Will take reasonable risk to revive teammates. Very Good as bait. Very good jumper. Able to recognize Alpha players (Most important player in the team) and provide support , revive priority, bait, etc.

Weaknesses = Low Firepower ( for Raid level missions ), Cannot sustain damage for too long ( Thus my houdini level running skills lulz ), No MIC, Sometimes bad connection, inexprience in Raid.


Rough Strike Data to date = 22 Strikes conducted.
670 Kills - 26 Death = 25.77 K/D
46 Revives


Sowiee for the long post, but would appreciate any kind of help really.

play roc higher chance for legendary engram yesterday i got 5 or 6.......

i guess most of us on PS4 platform. if you are in PS4 Platform we able to help you.

I got my Destiny during the promotion of get one copy for PS3 and free one copy for PS4, heard that the characters can be transferred too. Will be getting a PS4 soon, hope to see you guys then.

But for now, am I doing the right thing ah?

@SecrET_of_RainBOw
Most of my friends in friendlist are random people I met in Destiny. Not sure we can handle roc or not, we're all around the level of 25-27, not very well armed at all =/ any tips?

I believe the offer is only for digital version of destiny. Yes i believe you still get accessed to your characters when you play on the PS4.

Focus on leveling vanguard first, try reaching at least rank 4 via bounty/patrol/strike playlists. Based on your equipment you need helmet & armor so you need 2 commendation

and 195 vanguard mark. Then with all completed leg armor you can level 31 and can join any game mode easier.

Nightfall/weekly can be enter with low level but you will suffer a penalty. Doable with group though. Try joining any PS3 clan out there.

Hopefully you got friends to play because you can get bored really fast playing alone.

Yush I got the digital version


Tengkiu for the tips, it seems my plan is heading towards the correct direction then Gonna take 2 weeks if I am lucky to gather the other 2 pieces. Don't really have real life friends playing this, I only have some random destiny players on my friendlist. Sometimes I try to squeeze something out of this shallow friendship


Btw sifus, Is it advisable for me to buy a Legendary weapon via marks or should just keep farming until I get one ? Are exotic gears only available from Xur? I read that it can be rewarded by bounty, are there any specific bounty I should look up for ? Are those bounty available at my level now ?
