CHRISTMAS NOOB?- READ THIS WHILE DESTINY INSTALLS! YOUR FIELD GUIDE.

[u][i][b]FOR ALL CHRISTMAS NOOBS OF DESTINY - ("NEWB" for those grammar Guardi--blam!-'s) [/b][/i][/u] [b]YOU JUST POWERED UP THAT FRESHLY UNWRAPPED XBOX OR PLAYSTATION, BECAME WIDE-EYED AT THE DESTINY GAME YOU GOT WITH IT, AND HAVE FORE-GONE ANY MORE WASTED VACATION TIME SO THAT YOU CAN LAUNCH YOURSELF INTO THIS WORLD MANY OF US HAVE CALLED HOME FOR 3 MONTHS. WHILE IT INSTALLS.....PLEASE READ THESE TIPS AND HINTS THAT WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE, AND THE LIVES OF THE VETERAN PLAYERS YOU WILL SOON MEET IN THE TOWER, A LOT EASIER.[/b] 1. [b]Welcome to Destiny![/b] 2. [b]Locate your mic...that you got with the Console. [/b] [b] a: [/b] Throw it away....and tell whoever got you the console that it must have not come with a mic. [b] b: [/b] Explain to them the merits of having actual headphones to keep those around you from hearing your soon-to-be hours on hours and days on days of gameplay....and show them a pic of some TB XO4's or something like them. [b]c:[/b] ONCE ACQUIRED....USE THEM! Communication is key in this game....for your sanity and those you play with. Just remember - it also has a mute button....very easy to use....SO USE IT WHEN YOUR LITTLE SISTER IS CRYING...AND ESPECIALLY WHEN [b]EATING CHIPS.[/b] 3. [b]Go ahead and start a Guardian for EACH CLASS.[/b] Yes - I know you love "Mages" or "Barbarians" or "Elves"....but you will come to love at least 2 classes in this game...and maybe even all three. You will need at LEAST a duplicate guardian of the same class. DO IT. NO ARGUING. Come back and thank us later. [i] For those who say Dup-Classing is Scrubish....I honestly agree to an extent....HOWEVER - after 30 LEGIT VOG Completions....and still missing Gear.....and after a very aggravating week with what was my Hunter.....I offered him up as a Blood Sacrifice to RNGeezus....and it worked. Sharded his ass - remade a New Warlock in his place....and missing Raid Gear was completed the VERY NEXT RUN. The problem is - because I created him with Dark Void Magic from the Blood of my Sacrificed Hunter....I fear being cursed if I were to Shard him and recreate my Hunter. My Penance for my transgressions. I don't regret my decision one bit. ;) [/i] 4. ONCE YOU START A GUARDIAN....[b]DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT GOING INTO THE CRUCIBLE [/b]UNTIL YOU HAVE FINISHED THE MAIN STORY MISSION AND FULLY LEVELED AT LEAST ONE SUBCLASS. WE DON'T CARE HOW AMAZABALLZ YOU WERE AT COD GHOSTS. This is for the sake of those you would be match-made with....and YOU. 5. [b]Go play the game BY YOURSELF at first[/b] run through some story missions solo. Look for ghosts. Loot some chests. Fall off a cliff or two. Blow up your speeder with you on it accidentally. Kick up the difficulty. Wipe on that first vex mission for 2-3 hours. Turn in some engrams and get some junk. Get KTO'd a few times. Visit the fabled loot cave....have a moment of silence...and pay your respects to those who came before you. While in loot cave - [b]blow yourself up[/b]..because Blood offerings are all that RNGeezus recognizes...and you need him on your side. 6. Dont hoard every piece of gear you get.....but also -[b] DON'T JUDGE GEAR BY THE DAMAGE or DEFENSE NUMBER. [/b] Look at the specs and stats...hit the right trigger and compare it to what you already have. 6-B. [b]RED[/b] Shield = USE SOLAR (Red) DAMAGE.....[b]PURPLE [/b]Shield = USE VOID (Purple) DAMAGE.....[b]BLUE[/b] Shield = USE ARC (Blue) DAMAGE 7. If you are on Patrol....and a fellow Guardian is [b]nice enough to start shooting at your face from a distance[/b]....followed by that Guardian jumping up and down....or dancing....or pointing...don't get butt hurt. This is the in-game process for a Guardian trying to get your attention and show you something you may want to know about. A Ghost. A Chest. Some Materials. Something cool.....etc. Recognize being popped in the face by a Fellow Guardian as the universal "Hey BRO! LOOK! A SHINY THING!" method of communication. 8. Just because the game says you have access to something - [b]doesn't mean you are ready for it[/b]. Don't expect to get into a Raid squad as a Level 25 with no purps. Sorry bro. Put in some more work....and come see us when your gear is ready for the task.....or join us so we can show you the best ways of obtaining said gear. 9. Orbit Gear. Ascendant Motes. Flamboyant Weapons. No....you ain't ready..... 10. [b]Wife / Girlfriend - Husband / Boyfriend - Parental AGRO [/b] What? I aint Dr. Phil or Oprah.....dont ask me for advice! Im just letting you know it will exist...like a tendril of Darkness poking you from beyond. Come up with your own SOP and Contingency Plans. 11. [b]FIND A GROUP TO RUN WITH[/b]. There is no better way to really enjoy this game - than with a group of fellow Gamer's who have no problem praising your victories - along with holding your transgressions against you in equally entertaining parts. Sure - soloing stuff can be a challenge and enjoyable.... But most of this game is just better with fellow Guardians. [i][b]RATHER THAN SPAMMING STRANGERS IN THE TOWER - PLEASE LOOK ON THE FORUMS FOR A GROUP YOU WANT TO JOIN.[/b][/i] Here's your first option: [b]Origin Gaming Collective[/b] - MAIN OGC HUB & XB1/PSN CLAN [b]OriginGamingCollective360 [/b] - All XB360 Members (Grew so fast we had to start a Dedicated 360 page!) [u][b]Great Additions from Other Guardians:[/b][/u] [b]Zukiwuki says[/b]: [quote]In the crucible do NOT just run up and grab heavy ammo. I CANNOT stress this enough. If you have people around you when you pick it up MORE people will get heavy ammo. Don't be selfish and pick it up for yourself UNLESS the other team is making a grab at it.[/quote] AGREED!!!!! Wait for your closest squad mates to join you in getting Heavy!!! Call it out - and call out WHICH location of heavy you are near. That being said - don't risk the OTHER team getting it if you are about to be over run. Grab it up and do what you gotta do - but only as a last resort. [b]GeorgieShawn [/b]says:[quote]You forgot one of the most important pieces of advice: "Read this forum with a huge grain of salt.......maybe even a boulder. You'll know the legit & helpful posts when you find them, but you'll have to sift through a lot cheese & whine and plenty of trolling a$$hats to find them"[/quote] Georgie - this is soooo true.

      • I actually thought of writing something like this yesterday when I responded to a "How do I get stuff? I'm stuck at level XX" post. This is what I wrote, any changes fellow guardians? 1. Grind the highest strike playlist you can. At lv23 you should be able to do Tiger strikes. If you have the DLC then move onto ROC strikes once you hit lv25. I can't remember the drop rates for Tiger strikes but on ROC I average 2-3 blues per strike and each strike takes roughly 8-15 minutes. 2. Keep swapping out your blue armor whenever you find some with a higher light level. Blue armor alone will get you to lv26 if you have the DLC, lv24 if you don't. Don't worry about perks, all that matters is getting your level up for now. If you find some with perks that suit your weapons etc then it's a bonus. 3. Do public events at least once a day, as well as the daily mission. They will provide credits, coins, and materials for when you start getting legendary gear and for Xur. 4. Buy an exotic piece of armor from Xur, as well as an exotic weapon. At this early stage it doesn't really matter what they are (chest/boots/gloves or primary/secondary/heavy) you just need to get your stats up. Armour is 13 Strange Coins, weapon 17 Strange Coins, or an exotic armor engram (RANDOM CLASS, might not be for your guardian) for 23 Motes of Light. 5. Do as many bounties as possible. If you are wearing an item from a faction (Dead Orbit etc) then your experience is applied to this vendor. You need your vendor level to be 2 to buy gloves/boots, level 3 for helmet/chest/weapons. Crucible marks are used for all vendors other than the Vanguard, and crucible marks can only be earned in the crucible (PvP). 6. Do the highest level weekly strike you can do. If you can jump in with a higher level guardian you will get better rewards. If everyone dies in a weekly/nightfall strike then you are returned to orbit. There is also no re-spawn, only revive. Get into Nighfalls once your able to as well. 7. You can access the Vault of Glass at lv23 (I think) but I wouldn't recommend it until you hit lv27 at least. Ideally you want one if not two maxed legendary weapons - especially in your primary slot. Once you get these, run the VoG every week for more rewards/materials. I'm sure there is more but these are main points. Good luck guardian.

        bump and for the love of god find out where the heavy ammo spawns in crucible (its in the same 2 spots every time) and get there when it calls "heavy ammo inbound", it will help you to have it and if you stumble upon it by yourself heed the advice above. I don't know how many times I see teammates just run past while I'm waiting for them to pick up heavy as well as seeing someone grab it by themselves when I'm right there just out of reach.... so frustrating please don't do this unless necessary situation requires you to pull heavy with out waiting ( at a minimum one other player should be around to grab it with you. Good luck

        Rules for a new Hunter #1. You are a lonewolf. Titans and Warlocks do not understand you, and they never will. #2. You are made to achieve Max DPS from range. Get good with a scout rifle, and if you get a sniper rifle called "Ice Breaker" you are set for life. #3. Your supers (Golden Gun or Bladedancer) are made to clear out entire teams with the right perks. You will see people call for them to be nurfed. Those people are jealous of our abilities. #4. Invisibility is your friend use it. #5. Don't wear lucky raspberry. .. it's ugly. #6. Throwing knives. Throwing knives. Throwing Knives. With the right perks and skill you can run entire missions with just that knife. #7. Have fun and don't listen to all the haters.

        • Wanna play as a hunter ? heed the following: 1) hunters were created with maximum dps in mind, try to keep you're enemies at a distance and take them out before they can even hit you 2) the best defense is a good offense. 3) learn to judge how much damage you can put out before dying. This learning process wil take lots of dying. 4) know your enemies! know how they act and how they attack. For example, the fastest way to take out a cabal phalanx is with a shotgun, stand close to them and wait for them to attack you, when they come in to strike, there will be a small window for you to shoot them right in the face and end them in one hit. 5) no pain no gain 6) Hunters are agile, use it to your advantage, triple jump is a very solid choice 7) invisibility is very useful in harder parts of the game were there is no time pressure, such as in nightfall strikes 8) while using blade dancer, don't be shy, while you are squishy, you can wipe out vast groups of enemies very quickly, showstopper is a very useful perk when you're in the thick of it. 9) don't use blade dancer on bosses! trust me on this one, just don't. 10) learn to use handcannons, when you can chain head shots with a hand cannon, there is no weapon that can come close in dps. 11) shields - ennemies will have shields (coloured bubbles) around them. use the correct element type on your weapons to take out these shields as fast as possible. Red shields mean fire damage, blue shields arc damage and purple shields void damage. 12) before you attempt the VOG, get to level 27, and watch at least 1hours worth of guides. 13) before you attempt CE, get to level 30-31 and watch at least 1 hours worth of guides 14) get a mic

            • Don't get too attached to picking your gear for 5 second grenades or anything, because after level 20 you basically don't get to choose anymore. I miss when my Bladedancer could spam Arc Bolt like a Sith Lord because I just picked all the highest discipline gear.
