MUST GET MORE COINS!!!
Well Obsidian Mind is a must have. But I'm gonna need to run the weekly on my hunter to get enough coins to buy Ice Breaker. No way I'm passing it up this time.
If anyone is interested in helping me run the weekly/nightfall (XB1) late tonight or tomorrow afternoon/evening let me know. My hunter needs all the help he can get!

On one hand - Obsidian Mind. On the other the intellect is awful low.Does it matter on Obsidian Mind?
Uh, no. Obsidian Mind's perks are so Intellect-focused that the armor value is irrelevant.
Buy buy buy.
Edit: I got Obsidian Mind as a Nightfall drop a few weeks ago, the stats are almost identical to this one from Xur.
ICE BREAKER ALL DAY
Seriously I'm pleased as punch right now. I had 31 strange coins. It was exactly enough for today:
Exotic weapon frame: 1 strange coin
Glass House helmet: 13 strange coins
Ice Breaker: 17 strange coins
Happy titan bubble bro: priceless

Bought TLW last week and decimated my strange coin pile. Why.. Why did I just not wait. I hate the last word
And I can't even use TLW or get more strangies as I still don't have xbl ;_;
Is it upgraded?
A fully upgraded Last Word is my favorite hand cannon in the game. It packs quite a punch with its ROF but isn't all that useful in crucible except in the iron banner, where it wrecks.

Ah - I was lamenting not having enough coins to get Last Word. I was bitter, in fact. Now I'm looking squarely at The Obsidian Mind and feeling alright.
Just curious, what don't you like about TLW?
Yep.
Who's complaining about coins from Nightfall now? ;)

down, but i am doing halo customs at 9pm set, and crota at 12am. if you want to run it at like 8 or so, I would totally be down.
Dangnabbit Bungie
It's lack of ammo for starters. Then there's the fact it only rapid fires when holding down the trigger and the recoil is stupid, lack of range and the impact and ROF are exactly the same as my thorn 2.0.
I've predominately been a scout/ auto rifle guy myself. I have scout rifle ammo perk on chest piece with scout reload on gaunts, this with me being a hunter for stacked precision/ reload when killing coupled with my fully upgraded MIDA 2.0 + field scout and the hand cannon is redundant.
Also I have extra ammo for autos on just my boots which gives me 600-700 ammo with my hard light and my vg auto rifle which I got from engram rolled with stability bonus AND fitted stock, with it's 900 ammo is just a complete laser beam.
I was expecting to be able to trigger finger TLW and be landing descent shots from atleast semi-mid range, so it feels like a real let down compared to my other guns. And it just runs out of ammo too quickly to be useful to me, even landing ALL precision shots.
Still have more coins then I need ;)

I'd be interested in a piece of that action with my alt (level 30 Warlock) if you've got a slot open; suddenly she has 4 bounties awaiting the weekly challenge.
-- Steve has to upgrade her Pocket Infinity this week, too, according to Xur's list.
IceBreaker for 17sc
Hell, give me 5. :D
Well yeah, of course you do!
You got all the stuff Xur's selling from the nightfall ;)
IceBreaker for 17sc
I'm in for 2!
Me.
I got 12 coins from the nightfall, then turned around and ran the weekly, where I got an engram for an awesome sniper. At least the weekly feels my pain.
I'm buying 3 Icebreakers, Obsidian Mind, and Glasshouse, and I'll still have a bunch of coins left over. I've only run the weekly once this week, so if I help a couple more people out I'll be swimming in coins again. And I still don't have a good legendary 331 hand cannon. That's what I want from nightfall.
IceBreaker for 17sc
TBH, I might buy a couple myself. I don't bother swapping most weapons between characters much, but Ice Breaker (even an un-upgraded one) is so useful that I wouldn't mind having one on each character, just to avoid vault-swapping it constantly. And it's not like I'm short on coins at the moment.
MUST GET MORE COINS!!!
I'll help ya! This week's strike is a breeze
Xûr's Goodies
The answer to whether you can still max INT really depends on how much INT your other armor pieces provide. But, like Pete said, Obsidian Mind's effects are so extreme that it's likely your super will be up MUCH faster than before regardless. The only way it wouldn't is if you managed to hit nothing with your Nova bomb, and if that's happening frequently you should probably just stop warlocking. ;)
Edit: Also, the only proper gun to use with Obsidian Mind is Bad Juju.
MUST GET MORE COINS!!!
Sounds like you've already got enough allies, but I'll volunteer as well. I have 2 characters which haven't run the weekly heroic strike yet.

If anyone sees me online (either platform), I need help, too.

Is it that you think the odds are less that you'll get the legendary now? Didn't they just up the cap on how many coins you might get on nightfall?
Need another Suros and Gjallahorn Still :/

I find I can fire TLW much faster than Thorn without holding down the trigger. Don't give up on TLW until you've unlocked it's last perk. It DRASTICALLY alters the gun, for the better, by having almost no recoil/drift.
Glass House?
So, is glass house worth it for me? I've already got Helm of Saint 14 & Armamentarium for my Titan, do I really need this 3rd exotic piece of armor (a 2nd piece of headgear that buffs defenders)? (I would like to have the striker helm tho')
Me.
Odds are the same, I was just hoping they would remove coins and ascendant materials so that I would have much better odds of getting something useful.
Glass House?
It extends weapons of light. Would be useful during raids.

In the eye of the beholder. I've yet to have too many strange coins.

I'm going to be starting my second Hunter on Xbox tonight and leveling it up all night/tomorrow morning. I should be ready to do the weekly heroic sometime tomorrow and would love to do it with one or more of y'all.
On a related note, if anyone wants to run through story missions with me so I can do it on the higher difficulties and level up faster, I would love you forever.

Are you able to run them at 30 and just not kill anyone? Not sure if that would give your more or less XP.
No engram and no heavy ammo synth...
Xur...
Yeah this pisses me off to no end. I have like 100 glimmer and over 100 coins. I wanted to go to town on heavy synth for prep for hard mode but nooooooooo. Now I have to farm glimmer and wade through more bullshit just to play this game.

The game won't let you into an activity that is more than three levels above your level. The problem is that running it by myself - it would take me 3-4 times as long to run a mission (like The Dark Beyond for example) on level 9 instead of 6 if I'm a level 6. With friends helping, I can run through everything on the highest setting it will allow me to enter (up to 3 above me) and the over-leveled friends can be the ones to make sure we speed through the missions but I still get the increased xp rewards.
I could probably run through everything solo and still hit level 20 by tomorrow evening, but it would probably cut a third off that time if I have help.
Glass House?
I'm in the same boat, 3 coins short. Prolly wait for it in a drop or whenever it comes back around. Looks like epcot

Just the weekly or the Nightfall too? I did both already this week but the game crashed on me just as the Nightfall was about to finish so I need to rerun that.

Just the Weekly as we all want coins (nightfall doesn't guarantee them). I still have to do the Nightfall on my Hunter, so i would prob do it at some point tomorrow if you wanted. I know my friend from real life wanted to run it.
MUST GET MORE COINS!!!
Ahhh shitty. Yea I would run through a few if you see me on and I am not in a weekly thing already.

Missed you yesterday man. The six-man titan party was unstoppable when there weren't any randoms mucking things up. I think we won one game 20000 to 6000.

Yeah, it's been a pretty shit week. I should be around this weekend. Dunno how I feel about Iron Banner though (my patience is thin from aforementioned shit week).

None of us had 30's besides T1g3r so we just ran regular crucible. Might try again tomorrow afternoon.

I'd be down. Tryhards are bad for my mood. Not that I won't swear anyway. ;)
In defense of the TLW
TLW has a fast rate of fire even without holding it in full auto, and once you get perfect balance for it, it's got very little recoil. I like the full auto mode as an option when someone is right up on me. This allows me to run with a longer range secondary instead of my usual shotgun.
The small clip size is a factor, especially since you can fire so quickly. You have to really try to avoid certain encounters (granted, those encounters should be avoided normally anyways). I have a pair of gauntlets that increases reload speed of hand cannons that I use when running with it.
That all being said, I'm seeing a lot of upgraded Thorns doing a lot of damage in the IB this week. The lasting damage effect is particularly effective.
Just got a level 30 Ice Breaker in a drop . . .
It looks like Xur has never offered a level 32 upgrade for Ice Breaker, is that correct? I would like to save the 17 coins . . . but if there is no chance of upgrading later then I will probably just cough up now.

He did. First week of DLC he had an Icebreaker upgrade. Course, it might take him 14 weeks to have another one.

He had it before and he'll have it again, so if it we're me in this situation, I'd hold off.
A 300dmg IB is still REALLY useful, and is capable of stun locking phogoth and other large enemies, for example.
In defense of the TLW
The lack of ammo for this weapon is just something I cannot ignore.
It's special perks are very game changing in close combat but, Thorn 2.0 fully upgraded has lingering damage AND a 9 clip, that 1 bullet makes all the difference in the long run, the sights for thorn > TLW sights as well.
I think I'll vault TLW till I get XBL back and run it in the crux.
Waaaaaaait a minute...
...TLW fires full auto?!
I've just been pulling the trigger like a madman, assuming it was semi-auto. I didn't realize I didn't need to.
I can't look at it and not feel the need to fan trigger.
Waaaaaaait a minute...
Oh Banana.. You silly fruit you.
On topic: am I wrong in thinking TLW 1.0 had the perk "this gun fires as fast as you can pull the trigger" which means you could trigger finger it faster than the full auto? Or this another gun with this perk?

Sure. Add stabbim if you haven't already.
Waaaaaaait a minute...
I've never seen a gun in Destiny that had that perk description. Perhaps you're thinking of Borderlands? There was a perk in BL2 that matched almost word-for-word.
Just got a level 30 Ice Breaker in a drop . . .
I wouldn't. It's cheaper in the long run to buy a weapon outright than it is to upgrade, unless you're really short on strange coins.
Waaaaaaait a minute...
Naw never played borderlands before, I'd bet my glimmer stack I saw it on a gun in destiny.
Just can't remember which one, I'm like 90% sure it was TLW 1.0
An update (for anyone that might care)!
I'm going to be starting my second Hunter on Xbox tonight and leveling it up all night/tomorrow morning. I should be ready to do the weekly heroic sometime tomorrow and would love to do it with one or more of y'all.
On a related note, if anyone wants to run through story missions with me so I can do it on the higher difficulties and level up faster, I would love you forever.
We did it!! After starting a fresh hunter at about 5pm yesterday, and playing for about 5 hours yesterday and another 6 today -- I hit level 20 at about 5:30 pm. I then quickly threw on my gear from my other (lvl 30) Hunter and we did the Weekly Heroic strike. I am now the proud owner of an Icebreaker! (Well, technically it was my fourth Icebreaker, but my first on Xbox which is the important part).
HUGE thanks to Squid and his friend SA Assassin, Kermit, and ESPECIALLY Stabbim (who was carrying me almost the entire way from 1 through 20 and the Weekly).
