Nice. Seems that Bungie is completely oblivious to its Canadian player base and set all day maintenance today on Thanksgiving when I have loads of time to play lol.

Yeah that's my thought process as well. So let me ask a more obvious question...do people playing the game think that they would buy the expansion packs? It is hard to judge without playing if you would actually buy the expansion packs...

Absolutely yes, but I haven't hidden my love of the game.

now that it's so hard to level up, I find I don't play very often. there's just so little movement and I get bored of killing the same bad guys in the same places.

i dunno if I'm in for expansion or not.

Understandable about the auto-rifle stability change, and even 2% damage on most low impact guns isn't huge but the modifier change from 1.5 to 1.25 hurts, especially in PvE. I guess I'll have to break out the Scout Rifle to try. Buffs to that look promising so far.

I wish Bungie would just let weapons be what they are, rather than trying to make them all the same. I miss the days where a game would ship and it was what it was.

I'd be pissed if I completed the Hard Raid, got the Mythocast and then it gets nerfed.

Agree to a degree though given what most users with the Mythoclast are saying, it's still a top tier weapon in PvP in close to mid range. That's fine. It's just no longer the steamrolling auto-win weapon.
Anecdote: two friends picked up the Mythoclast from a hard mode run a couple days ago and absolutely wrecked Iron Banner. At one point the other team was filled with completely different players than who started the match. One Mythoclast user had 9K+ points. The writing was on the wall.

The issue is how it's pretty useless in PvE and this nerf hurts it even more. Small ammo pool makes it a poor primary and not worth putting a Ice Breaker or Pocket Infinity on the sidelines.

I would be a-ok with weapons having different stats in PvP vs PvE.

Loot cave got an update as well. There's now a trigger-able event inside of it that pokes fun at the whole concept of the "loot cave".

I agree.

I am likey doing it wrong but I played for a few hours and went from level 22 to 23. Trying to find relic iron was driving me crazy. Just can't find that stuff. I guess I am not much of a farmer.

Got the exotic pulse rifle Red Death from the Raid and the exotic rocket launcher Truth from a Rumble match.

Today was a good day.

I can show you guys how to get relic iron. You can rack up close to 100 in an hour. Just send me a message next time I'm on.

I could hit 30 now as well, got a full set of Raid gear. However, my final piece has no Intellect and that's really what I want my build to focus on. So I don't plan on spending shards on this piece unless I have an abundance of them.

My suggestion for you would be to focus on going for a specific type of build and working towards that.
