It keeps auto rolling until you hit an Exotic. The counter is at the upper left and marked in parenthesis next to each Exotic where the rolls stopped when it hit. This simulates how many engrams you'd have to obtain and decrypt to get an Exotic. While not an 100% accurate representation of the game the decode chances are relatively close (Exotics out of Legendaries is less than 5% and out of Blues [Rare] less than 1% [Legendaries out of Blue is less than 5%]).

I did a little better with the simulator than ThatOneRiggaNob.

Here's what I ended up with after just over 2K rolls:
169 Decryptions
All Exotics [10]:
The Last Word (60)
Patience and Time (225)
Patience and Time (696)
Ruin Wings (834)
Mask of the Third Man (866)
Mk. 44 Stand Asides (977)
Gjallarhorn (1283)

Achlyophage Symbiote (1851)

That's Exotics for you, but that is why you increase your chances by getting guaranteed Legendary engrams (usually in legendary care packages from Factions/Vanguard/Cryptarch [not a high chance, but happens], mission rewards, and the very rare engram drop from enemies). DO NOT rely solely on one source and more specifically do not rely on engram drops [99% of these will be green and blue]. Farming the raids and high level strikes (Roc Playlists specifically, used to be Tiger until Dark Be...

A day late and a dollar short. I'm done with Unity. I'm only missing a couple online related trophies which I'm not really motivated to get as well as earning the Bonus score for a few of the Helix Rift missions to get 100% sync for the Rifts and the ENTIRE game.

I just checked GT5 again, too. It LITERALLY is impossible to platinum now. There are 2 online related trophies that, unless you already have them, can no longer be earned because the GT5 online servers have been shut down making those trophies completely unobtainable and thus making the Platinum unobtainable.

Those two trophies aside, the real roadblock for most with GT5 is the trophy "Gold Standard" requiring getting gold on ALL events and...

Now I want to see the reverse to this. Seriously has ANYONE legitimately got the Platinum for Gran Turismo 5?! That has to be the single most difficult Platinum ever.

Metal Gear Solid 2 is a very close second as it requires beating the game through Very Hard (while collecting all the Dog Tags) as well as getting insane times on the VR stuff - at least the Boss Hard playthrough of MGS5 was doable (you just needed to figure out how to finish each boss fight non-lethally while a...

You can speed run most Resident Evil games in under 3 hours. Hell, there are LOTS of games that can be finished in little time with little or no reason to try again except to see if you can shave off a few more seconds. What's the f-ing point.

Value is subjective.

If people want to moan about a 5-hour speed runnable game (the 5 hours WAS a speedrun, as the developer themselves stated many testers and early previewers were averaging closer to 10 hours) tha...

Short of glitching through the door the Vault of Glass cannot be done solo. Even two manning is a feat that is nigh impossible (again without glitching or check pointing). To even open the Vault (legitimately) you need three people minimum. Beyond that 1-2 people can (in theory and again legitimately) finish the Vault, but it would be VERY VERY hard. Defending the confluxes with only 1-2 people would be the hardest part because toward the end you need to defend two at...

So long as your other weapons are not full, using a Primary causes enemies to drop Secondary and Heavy ammo (Secondary - Primary and Heavy; Heavy - Primary and Secondary), though only the bigger enemies like Wizards, Knights, Shanks, Minotaurs and such will drop heavy ammo (barred you are using a Primary or Secondary with Juggler).

As for burning all ammo...this ALWAYS works (Nightfall, Heroic, Juggler, Burns, normal missions, Patrol, doesn't matter). It is a safety built...

@Chris

In a pinch I just burn all my ammo. If you empty all your guns the game respawns all your ammo types partially (30%-50% capacity depending on Primary, Secondary, Heavy) after about 10 seconds of no ammo at all. If you ever see anyone shooting into nothing for no reason, this is what they are doing.

I wish I had Icebreaker, as it really helps on Juggler missions because you are not dependent on Secondary ammo and using it gens Primary ammo from drops.

3998d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Burns can help if you have the weapons that match too. I personally hate Juggler (on ANY weekly or daily). I tend to forget about Juggler until I'm running ludicrously low on Primary ammo.

As of late I have been heavy on an Auto Rifle/Fusion Rifle/Machine Gun combo (specifically Up for Anything [331], Murmur [331 alternating Arc/Solar, Arc most of the time though], and Super Good Advice [331 Solar]). My armor also gives me reload and ammo bonuses for Auto Rifles and Fusio...

I miss Queen's Wrath. I was never quite high enough level to do everything for it and was hoping it would come back around. They need to cycle Iron Banner, Queen's Wrath and one or two more related to the new DLCs every week of every month. If they did this you'd probably see more regulars coming in for the events. Since there is just Iron Banner and Queen's Wrath for now, they should alternate them with a dead week in between.

"Unless you are game collector, PS Now won't be a problem."

That's me. But I also don't care for true backwards compatibility or not because as a gamer that does not trade in his games, I also don't trade in my systems. I still have my PS1 (an original 9000 series, the last big one before they became the PSOne), PS2 (with HDD and network card), a dead launch PS3 (needs a power supply), a first gen Slim PS3, my PS4 of course, ...

You can turn off Automatic updates on Windows, though it's not recommended. As long as you have every single update installed, you should only be installing Windows updates 1-2 times a month and even then only a few at a time. Just as a side note, the second Tuesday of every month (sometimes the fourth too), usually referred to as Patch-Tuesday, is when Microsoft releases monthly security patches for Windows and your computer will forcibly restart after installing them. I usually never ke...

What about the Aussies? Don't they get boned by their own inflation and import prices? This also ignores their bans and censorship of many games.

Sub accounts are "child" accounts to the Master account. They share a wallet with the Master account and any and all purchases are shared between the Master account and all sub-accounts. The Master account has complete control over the wallet and can set spending limits or block spending altogether.

Sub-accounts that are elevated to Master accounts with this new program will retain any purchases that the sub-account had made, though they will loose access to all the...

This. There has been no shortage of people playing online. Matchmaking in the normal strikes also does not take very long (at least in my experience). The 6v6 Crucible takes a little time to match, but not more than a minute or so tops.

As far as people showing up for Public events, most are probably using the public event tracker website as every public event I have been part of has always had at least 1-2 21+ people show up just as it starts - most of the time they are alre...

I agree on the LFG. Matchmaking would be nice, but I understand the decision on the Raids because communication is a MUST. Seriously people use your mics.

I'm on the PS4 version and I know every PS4 came with a headset that plugs into the controller - please use it. I prefer the open mic on my camera as it is more casual and easy to use.

I do wish Bungie would have matchmaking on the Nightfall and Heroic strikes at the very least, though I did do the hero...

"I'm unfamiliar with non-Rachet and clank insomniac games was something wrong with sunset overdrive? And the most recent game into the nexus was fine"

Fuse bombed pretty badly. It was Insomniac's first real move into a new IP (outside of Resistance and Ratchet and PlayStation exclusivity) and it failed miserably. Sunset Overdrive went back to the same formula they had going with Ratchet and Clank (over the top action and a zany theme/charact...
