Achronos is on a well deserved vacation, spending his time playing Destiny and Civ: Beyond Earth.

And besides, lately I've been heads down on perf and infrastructure stuff. Apparently, lots of people like posting on bungie.net - keeping it from falling over has been entertaining... but so far, successful. :)

Yep. That's happened to me the past two weeks! :p

If I could see Xur on the map when checking the app, I would be sooo happy

I think he's always on the map, just in a spot where we can't see him. Having his location and stuff viewable on the companion app would throw people off, unless they could hide him in the app as well. It would explain why his stock shows up as weekly as well...

Just look for the cluster of nametags of everyone standing around him when you arrive in the Tower.

I had an exotic bounty where I had to buy something from him. When he appeared, the game put up a waypoint at his location :-p

Worth noting that this week's Armamentarium has much better Discipline than last week's. 25 extra Discipline is only like 10% recharge improvement, but every little helps.

It's "Boy's Soul," Frank. (reply)

Once you reach where I'm at, and your armor is upgraded, it's the Ascendant Energy you need for all your sweet weapons :-p

I've also run the Raid 3 times now and have no Raid Gear to show for it. I've only gotten some of the Raid Weapons, further increasing my need for Ascendant Energy!

So, bank those shards.

You will need them later, and you will PAY.

I'm sitting on about 80 shards right now, with nothing to use them on.

Xur is a troll, just ignore him.

You may be on to something here...he loves dark places, like under a bridge...he makes you pay a toll...he looks exactly like Danny DeVito...

Oh I did. They did come in handy upgrading gear I did have. that's why I have the gear to make me 29. I'm of course currently 27 as I'm leveling a new helm and gloves on PS4. lol

I feel like, just for you, they should make a special version of the Hawkmoon called the Hawkwind.

That helmet is dumb.
Disco's dead, the darkness killed it.
Thank god.

It brought the metal. Also, metal to the moon, because.

You can't kill the metal.

The metal will live on.

Long live the metal.

-Rev want's a new helmet for his Titan, but it's actually just Lemmy Kilmister's hat. It's special abilities include being able to down a bottle of JD a day to activate the upgrade to Shoulder Charge: Titan Mosh.

Your chocolate is in my peanut butter, dood.

I've got more exotics than I know what to do with, and I never, ever have enough shards to upgrade them.

Ever.

So, bank those shards.

You will need them later, and you will PAY.

You're telling me. (reply)

PsychoRaven — Fri, 24 Oct 2014 15:20:02 +0000

Yup you're telling me. I think each boss should at least give one piece of gear. At least 1. You can give me shards but give me just 1 piece of usable loot damn it.

wish I was that lucky (reply)

DiscipleN2k — Fri, 24 Oct 2014 15:16:13 +0000

Hell even when I was raiding on PS4 I got nothing but ass shards...

Ass shards. Worst. Reward. Ever. :p

I kind of like having to find him every week, but since all I usually have to do is look for a clump of name tags in an odd location, it takes some of the fun out of it.

It helps if you crouch while you do it too. Feels like christmas! Or a really lame game of hide and seek.
