305 motes remain!

Only 30 heavy ammo synths for the moment, to bring me up to 2 stacks in the bank and roughly 20 on each character.

So, is any of this armor worth it? I don't feel inspired.

I like Voidfang in crucible. Having grenades ready on every spawn is very useful. Works well with both subclasses. With my sunsinger I like being able to chunk 2 grenades at the guy who just killed me and is capturing my point.

Good role? And are they particularly useful? I typically play a fairly mobile crucible game where getting places faster would be helpful, but not sure if the strength for intellect trade on my current boots is worth it.

They are pretty good in crucible.

I kind of play by the seat of my pants, trying to work with whatever I have, so I didn't even realize the heavy ammo bug WAS a bug till a month ago, and I still rarely notice it. If I'm out of heavy ammo I just change my strategy. Guess I'm playing mostly subconsciously or something. Plus opening the menu and waiting for it to load during gameplay (on the 360 at least) is too dangerous usually.

Truth be told, I have needed heavy ammo much less than the internet would have you believe… I probably use maybe 4 or 5 per week playing, and that's including the Crota raid multiple times. Vault of Glass doesn't really require them, since the game is generous about giving you heavy ammo after each section, and it's not as important as in Crota.

I'm actually a little surprised to see that I appear to be on the low end of the spectrum. I'm curious now -- are you guys taking into account that the heavy ammo bug is (theoretically) going to be fixed within a week? Do you feel like you might regret dropping all that coin on 300/400/500+ synths if the bug is indeed fixed soon?

I bought some when I first tried the Vault of Glass Raid because Beorn yelled at me and told me to... I maybe used one during it? The rest have just been sitting in my inventory since.

So it's just me now. And all this time I thought we were friends...

We're still friends. I'm just now the more experienced friend you look up to since I got to third base with her first.

Name the time and date and I'll continue to be your wingman as you continue your quest looking for the right Atheon to pop your cherry.

Probably not.

In my case, what would I buy? I have all the weapons Xur can sell. The only things I'd buy are armor pieces. Those are cheap. I have all the hunter ones, so that leaves two other possible purchases each week when and if I start the two other classes.

Armor sells for 13 coins. That's a maximum of 26 coins I'd spend on gear each week until the new DLC. That is less than what I take in. This week I got two engrams, and ended up with what he was selling for warlock and titan. So no coins spent!

So no, I went to town, and will probably buy more, and just never ever have to worry about heavy ammo again. If anything, I am going to stockpile MOTES OF LIGHT to roll a bazillion Xur engrams from House of Wolves to get the cool new exotics right away.

I thought about joining in on someone I saw doing a run last night but I always feel guilty about dropping in uninvited.

Then some fusion rifle telemetries for my recently acquired Vex Mythoclast

It finally happened?? Did I miss you post about it? I figured for sure when you got one you'd be going nuts on the board here or something haha

Yeah, I got it last week. Honestly I thought about posting about it that night, but I just couldn't think of what to say at the time; I was serenely speechless. I wasn't sure how I would react, and to my surprise it wasn't so much running around the living room dancing, but rather (as CruelLegacey put it best) a "moment of bittersweet closure." Playing around with it subsequently definitely was exciting though. I think since I had gone without one so long, the hype of how good it is had started to die down for me -- but running around shooting stuff with it almost feels like cheating. :-)

I imagine that if/when I do ever get a Hawkmoon - that will elicit happy dancing around the living room.

So it's just me now. And all this time I thought we were friends...
