Ugh these modifiers sound like they will be a pain. Highly shielded, won't flinch, aggressive and in greater numbers.

What's the burn this week?

CorndogBurglar4098d ago

There isnt a burn this week. No biggie. Burns work both ways. Sure it might take a little longer to kill things, but it also means you wont be getting killed in one shot from certain enemies.

Gazondaily4098d ago

Ah I actually prefer a burn on- it makes the proceedings feel less grindy. Now that they have super shields on, its gonna take AGES

GameSpawn4098d ago

Burn can be good and bad. It depends on the weapons you have collected and regularly use and your play style. If you have a good set of Arc, Solar, and Void weapons (preferably some that are switchable like Murmur [Arc/Solar]), you can get by with no burns if you pay attention to the shield color of enemies and quickly switch to the appropriate weapon. If you are lucky to have an elemental primary (usually only available from the Raids as rewards), you can easily cater your heavy and secondary to fill out the missing elements.

With burns you just completely loadout with weapons that match the burn(s) and chew through everyone, BUT watch your butt because enemies with shields that match the burn(s) tend to also attack with that element type, meaning they chew through you as easily as you can them.

ChozenWoan4098d ago (Edited 4098d ago )

Burns smerms.
Looks like an easy Nightfall this week. Just bring your Icebreakers boys and girls, and Juggler becomes a non issue.

Neonridr4098d ago

don't worry Septic.. just bring along your trusty Gjallarhorn and you'll take care of business... oh wait... nevermind.

;)

j/k buddy.

Gazondaily4098d ago

Pure evil. Just you wait...one day it will be mine.

I got the Vex Mythoclast though :D

Neonridr4098d ago

hey congrats. Still a good weapon.

04soldier4098d ago

I feel your pain Septic, I seem to collect every exotic except the Horn and I've owned the game since launch

Xb1ps44098d ago

Man I just started playing this game for a few days now and I have no idea what you guys are talking about lol.. Sounds like titanfal lingo with burn.

How do you guys find the good weapons? I just get the lame stuff and I'm at lvl18!

Linkz9734098d ago

took me a long ass time to get gally but once i got it i can't stop getting it lololz

jdiggitty4098d ago (Edited 4098d ago )

xb1ps4,

after you're 20 you can buy Vanguard/crucible guns. At 27(?) start doing the nightfalls and raids for exotic drops and raid guns. Buy guns/armor from Xur on Fri/Sat. If you're at 20, just equipping vanguard/exotic armor will boost you to 24-25 level

The stock vanguard sniper, crucible scout and many of the hand cannons work great.

The "burn" they are talking about is what elemental damage is increased in the strike. ex. void, arc, solar. So if you have a gun that has that element it's damage is increased. But you take more damage from enemies who use that element.

That LightSwitch makes this nightfall a little touchy... but It's easier than last weeks. Thats for sure.

Christopher4098d ago

It's the Angry that's a pain. All those shielded guys and no flinching.

lildudexst4098d ago

Anything burn to knock the shield off

ABMN4098d ago

Yeah. Anything you can use to burn off those Solar and void shields it a huge benefit this week.

Linkz9734098d ago

This is going to be a pain in the ass, i miss burns we better get some solar burns after these past few nightfalls.

He paid billions for Starfield. This should be the real story.

Microsoft bought all of Zenimax Media for 7 billion, while Sony paid 4 billion for Bungie. I think Microsoft got the better deal due to acquiring Fallout, ElderScrolls and Doom.

anast619d ago

This can't be true. They only bought Starfield...

InUrFoxHole619d ago

@anast
Should've thought that one out buddy, lol.

Yeah, I thought it out. I'm not sure you did. But since we are buddy's now, you're welcome.

Profchaos620d ago

So you're saying that Microsoft has missed out on so many huge gaming franchise in the last 25 years from GTA exclusivity to guitar hero and destiny it's just laughable they had so many misses

Reaper22_619d ago

Yea, but they're still 100 times more wealthy than Sony. I would say it worked out well.

Gamingsince1981619d ago

Xbox is dead all that money doesn't help.

Hypertension140619d ago

What has work out well? It sure as hell had nothing to do with Xbox.

andy85619d ago

That isn't because of Xbox though. This is a gaming page, not an I get supplemented by father Windows page

Bathyj619d ago

Microsoft's money has nothing to do with Xbox.
Xbox is a money pit to them they would love to ditch but are after some ROI first.

Let's face it, Xbox is like a red headed stepchild that steals from you to buy drugs.

Hofstaderman619d ago (Edited 619d ago )

MIicrosoft is NOT XBOX. The current situation illustrates this. And Microsoft wants its ROI.

@Bathyj and daddy Satya has just force admitted Phil to rehab.

gold_drake619d ago

you know why MS has so much money, and it aint cause of the gaming xbox branch.

so lets not kid ourselves.

PhillyDonJawn619d ago

Xbox was shown to be more profitable than ps

jznrpg619d ago

@PhillyDownJawn not more profitable. More revenue with ABK acquisition but them going multiplat shows they are not making much profit

ocelot07619d ago

That's great for Xbox gamers ain't it that Microsoft are more wealthy than Sony. Is that really a argument use are using now lol?

Imagine me in my job. Arguing with a fellow security guard at another company. Hahah well the company I work for is worth £800m the one you work for is only work £600m!

Knightofelemia619d ago

Microsoft may have more money but Sony has the talented studios and the games to back up those studios.

Plus turning down Marvel too. Spiderman is only exclusive to Playstation because of that

Hedstrom619d ago

Best deal deal in gaming must be when Sony bought Insomniac for 229 million dollars. They made over 800 millions on Spiderman for the ps4 alone. Thats just crazy!

XBManiac619d ago

More in the 1.000 million now.

gold_drake619d ago

another Interview?

how is he the only one who loves the spotlight as much as he does lol

Futureshark619d ago

Let's not forget he also famously passed on Spider-man, Genshin Impact and GTA3.

However it's almost kind of cute how he can keep that sh1t-eating grin and say he's a 'no regrets' kind of guy, especially when you think how much just these 5 titles could have swung the world in Xbox's favour instead of Sonys.

How he's kept his job I don't know, he must sure be keeping Papa Nadella's shaft warm somehow.

"But, but Gamepass, he introduced that!!!"

Yes he did, and now look at Xbox, all it's exclusives are coming to Playstation now rendering the platform obsolete.

DarXyde619d ago

Honestly, with that kind of track record, you can't convince me Spencer hasn't eaten it from the back in the name of self preservation. Probably unwashed...and at least twice.

That aside, my interpretation of everything here is Xbox has been mismanaged a bit too much and Nadella came down from his throne. The way it is now, I don't believe for a minute the multiplatform move was Spencer's idea. I don't even think the acquisitions was Spencer's work. At this point, I reckon he's got as much power in his role as Hunter Biden at a Ukrainian energy company.

DivineHand125619d ago

You can never tell how things will turn out if he had said yes to those games. Xbox already has access to some great IPs, however, they hardly do anything with them or fail to deliver. It's also possible their presentation wasn't good at the time, and they made sure the next presentation was better.

I believe that part of being successful is releasing things in the right place at the right time.

Many major corporations have a story similar to passing on successful business ideas. Let us look at Sony Pictures for example. Back when Marvel went bankrupt, they had the opportunity to buy the entire Marvel for only $25 Million but turned them down. An unnamed big shot at Sony reportedly claimed that “nobody gives a shit about any of the other Marvel characters,”. They ended up taking Spiderman for $10 Million instead.

https://www.avclub.com/sony...

Fast forward to today, we can see what the Marvel brand has done for Disney. Is it possible the same success would have been possible had Sony acquired those IPs. We can't say that for sure and it is possible most of those IPs that are successful today may not have been used.
