Getting better is an understatement. So many times last night we'd hear you call out contacts, begin moving towards you and two or three skulls would pop up within 3 seconds. I think you're turning into a murderbot Chaos

I was wearing The Ram too (reply)

Don't listen to these guys, you are playing the game the right way. Burn everything.

I really love the chaining grenades. But the blink is game changer. At first I really sucked with it but now that I have a better understanding of when to jump and little clues to help me figure out where I will be its got alot better. Before I was just lost half the match, but its getting better. It helps to just play the maps and blink around to see what you can and cant do.

Also Arcblade is probably my worst super. its very lucky for me to get 2 kills. Especially in trials. I am far exceeding that now.

I am going to post a video of one of my better blade dancer games I had last night. Im slowly getting better.

Thieve's Den is a great ToO map to run a squad of Bladedancers because of the typical standoff that happens on the upper platform. Most teams will hide just out of sight around the far corner, stepping through that doorway to take a couple shots then back up through the door again. If you chuck a couple chain grenades through the door at the same time, you might kill 2 or even 3 of them instantly.

The Super Pox VLO has roughly the same stats... (reply)

If you can't do well in Trials and you were lucky enough to pick one up during Vanilla Destiny, it's a fantastic weapon. I got one as a random drop and it is a beast in Crucible right now. Mine has Full Auto, Glass Half Empty and pretty much maxed Stability.

That's almost as bad as teams that run with 3 Bladedancers all wearing Lucky Raspberry and murder-spam the chain-bolt arc grenades.

Although I do really want to try it out for myself lol

This gave me a good laugh :D (reply)

But I'm a Warlock, so the DoT is helpful for placing Firebolt grenades for maximum murder.

...I've seen relatively little Thorn. Nobody on my fireteam used it, and enemies were generally using other weapons, such as Messanger, MIDA, and Hawkmoon. I wonder if that's because this map is just really good in that you can position yourself right for a variety of weapons to be useful.

The more I think about it, the more I think this is exactly it. Last week I saw nothing but Thorn, this week I've seen hardly any. Nothing has changed except the map. And you're right... it's not like we're seeing any 1 single gun replace Thorn. Messanger, Mida, Hawkmooon, Scholar... also a good mix of shotguns and snipers.

Widow's Court seems to be a map that allows all sorts of playstyles at many different ranges, whereas the majority of the maps in Destiny seem to all favor the same engagement ranges (in which Thorn dominates). Maybe this is something we'll see more of in the future.

Zelekar or Zyxxer, depending on how noisy his kid was :p (reply)

Dat messenger, though. (reply)

I've been dying a lot to it in PvP. After watching you use it, it's arguably thorn's equal -- two burst shots if you get a triple headshot for a kill is amazing.

You can kill in two bursts while getting some body shots thanks to headseeker. The gun is a beast.

I'd give my Gjallarhorn away for a Void Messenger and BH (reply)

Thorn really has met its match. I still need an adept version of the messenger (only elemental trials primary I'm still missing) but either way it's a deadly PvP gun.

Yup, people are going to be complaining about it and Red Death dominating when the Exotic hand cannon nerf comes.

So far I have run three tickets this week, a 9-0 and two 8-1s. Interestingly this week I've seen relatively little Thorn. Nobody on my fireteam used it, and enemies were generally using other weapons, such as Messanger, MIDA, and Hawkmoon. I wonder if that's because this map is just really good in that you can position yourself right for a variety of weapons to be useful.

We had games that were long distance standoffs, and others that were up close in your face brawls in the tower. Certainly a cool week so far, and it's been fun with you guys.

Maybe we can try our Titans before the reset?
