Crucible Tips, Chest Farming Guide, & More!

Published on: Sep 13, 2014 @ 13:01 Multiplayer in Destiny takes place in the Crucible, and provides plenty of wealth for those who take the time to hone their skills. This video by BDobbinsFTW gives excellent tips for Destiny’s PvP.  [divider] [yframe url=’https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEzUT1dateg’] Never fight alone.  2v1 combat is what you want, every single time. PvP in Destiny is very teamwork-oriented, and the most reliable way to triumph in a firefight is having a teammate at your back.  The only caveat is that you don’t want to fight so close to each other that you become vulnerable to grenades, supers, or rockets. Otherwise, mutually

All Skulls, Nightfall Strikes

Guides 30 comments

Published on: Sep 12, 2014 @ 21:37 Some of this information can also be found in the official strategy guide. [divider] There are two main factors that influence the difficulty of a mission in PvE: the level of the mission and the Skulls active for that mission. Mission level is set to a certain baseline for Story missions and Strikes, but once you hit 20, all missions can be scaled up to (and beyond) Level 20. There is also a special set of Vanguard Strikes that allow you to play a random Strike at Level 18, 20, 22, or 24. Two Skulls

Guides 25 comments

Published on: Sep 12, 2014 @ 15:35 Destiny currently has 5 factions with vendors: Dead Orbit, Future War Cult, New Monarchy, Vanguard and Iron Banner. Factions are groups of like-minded Guardians and other citizens of the Tower and the City who have banded together around a certain philosophy. It was not always so; Faction wars once raged in the City’s earliest days…   This article will focus on DO, FWC, and NM. You can represent each faction throughout the game, but only one at any given time. [divider] How do I gain Faction Rep? For PvE Factions other than the Cryptarch, reputation is earned in PvE by completing Vanguard Strikes, bounties, and

Go to This Area for Engrams!

Farming Guides, Guides, Videos One comment

Published on: Sep 11, 2014 @ 22:49 The Ishtar Commons on Venus, which you can easily access via the Patrol, will earn you a decent amount of Engrams. This guide by Completionist is not necessarily a quick way to get Engrams, but it’s one of the best due to the amount of enemies and the ease it takes to mow them down. Note: In this video he gained much more than you will, simply because the amount being dropped has already been hot-fixed, but it’s still a great place to grind for them and gain tons of experience. The Postmaster in the Tower will mail you

Published on: Sep 9, 2014 @ 17:14 Reddit user TheTurboFD released a video demonstrating how to farm the chests around the Forgotten Shore area. The chests in that area are constantly re-spawning, but in different locations. This video may contain spoilers!
