Really glad I kept mine.

VoC was sexy as it was, so this is going to be awesome.

In other news, I got my hunter into CE normal last night. Got shards and energies until Ir Yut. I got my second Patience and Time (=|) and a third Hunger of Crota.

Three gjallahorns now. Two Light of the Abysses. All I want is a hammer or a shield breaker.

#### RNGesus.

Pretty excited to re-roll legendary weapons, and upgrade the light level on all legendary gear!

I'm really only annoyed I got rid of my helms. Those were so hard to come by!

Better start running VoG every week again. Like what they've done with the currency system. Being able to make use of the mass of materials works nicely. Can't say no to more sources of glimmer and while VoG might not be a glimmer farm, it'll be nice to still get things of worth regardless.

Huge QoL announcements. Looks like Commendations will be mentioned in an update later this week.

RNG is a funny thing.

Had another reasonable night - ran Crota Norm, but couldn't down him because it was with a group of friends who haven't done the fight very much. Managed to get the boots from the bridge encounter, so now it's just a question of leveling them up to hit 32.

Decided to do the daily story quickly before bed, and Thunderlord drops in a legendary engram....haha.

I've been trying for the last two days to finish crota hard, but every fire team I get with is terrible.
It's been painful. Last night people were dying in the Crystal room from knights and acolytes regularly! Seriously?

You take it for granted when your team skips through it easily - there is certainly a substantial skill gap in the game.

If you want to run it tonight after the Flames game, I can probably put together a couple guys that are solid.

I might be up for a CE Hard after the game tonight.

I've finally earned enough rank with the Vangaurd to start buying legendary equipment. I only have one legendary piece of armour at this time, so I think it would be a benefit to increase my light by buying one or two legendary pieces of armour.

It just took me while to earn all these marks and levels - want to make sure I'm not wasting them away.

Try to get an exotic or legendary helmet first. You can't get raid helmets in the normal VoG raid. Have to get in hard. As such, it's the hardest piece to get. I would think one more piece beyond that will get you to lv 26 so you can run VoG for more legendary gear.

Is there no one dropping bubbles with Blessings of Light for you in the room?

I find that when you drop a bubble, the knights come further into the room, and do it more often.
I try to get everyone to jump up off the floor once the acolytes are all dead, but no one seems to bother.

Definitely add a helmet first!
They're the hardest to come by.
Also, save your strange coins and grab an exotic armor piece from Xur tomorrow...they only cost 13 coins usually, so it should be affordable.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to a bar for the game, so I don't know if I'll get back until midnight.
Would be nice to crush a run with some people who are more than just randoms though.

Yeah they do. Usually one of us just yells knight and everyone knows to jump, but that's because I'm in a dedicated group and we're pretty well-coordinated lol.

I think the helmets need a commendation though? I'm not 100% sure on that though. If so, I'll buy something else now and should have plenty of time to earn enough marks by the time I get my first commendation. Thanks for the tip on the helmet though, sometimes I feel lost with all the gear and guns.

Good call on Xur, but I only have 9 strange coins right now. Trying my best to get more, but the Flames are playing too well right now! Not enough free evenings to play a lot.

Yea no sweat. I will probably finish norm tonight and try to do either VOG hard or CE hard depending on the groups I can find.

Really want a Mythoclast + a good rocket launcher.

If I could give you one of my many mythoclasts, I would!
I don't ever use them, but maybe when I bump it up to 365 I will. It's hard to justify using an exotic primary in PvE when Icebreaker and Gjallarhorn exist.
