Question where do you find rare ember or are you supposed to purchase it? Salvaging Rare Gear is the main way you'll get it, or from harvesting materials or chests. Never purchase that stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDunks4 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I had a great day with my Storm yesterday. Ran the 3 Legendary Contracts, did my dailies, and then started going Quickplays with it. By the end of the day, I had all Components Masterwork as well as collected multiple skills slots and weapons as MW. Quickplays I found I actually snuck into like 50% Legendary Contracts with guaranteed Component drops, which helped me out a lot. Today I'll focus on my Colossus, as its currently my weakest of the bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume Brin (sP?) would provide the third? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaku3 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I haven't gotten any legendary contracts yet but I am now level 27. Looking forward to hitting 30 and doing GM difficulty.

ALIEN-gunner Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Here's Joe discussing the game with his friends where he starts with saying the game is a colossal failure that reminds him of Fallout 76 but at least Fallout 76 had more content.

Xbob42 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Sure. Except Fallout 76 was a broken piece of shit to the core. There was no fun game to unearth. Anthem is a fun game at the core. That's not a small difference, it's a universe of difference. Fallout 76 will never be worth playing no matter what they do to it. Frankly none of the 3D Fallout games were really worth playing but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPDunks4 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 That’s kinda how I go into thee games. Are the core gameplay and controls there. With Destiny the shooting and gameplay felt great, so I gave Bungie the benefit of the doubt and put the time in waiting for the game to get great. With Destiny though it cost en extra $100 on DLCs to get there and they never really added some of the stuff I really craved in a looter shooter. I enjoyed Divisions gameplay too, even if now it feels a bit slow and cumbersome compared to Anthem. I feel Anthem has the important and hardest parts nailed. Controls are amazing and the gameplay is fast and fun. The world is gorgeous with so much potential to be added within it. The Javelins themselves are all so well done and play so uniquely. Now they can focus on more more and more content within the world they created, focus on Quality of Life improvements, and they’ve said they are even working on a whole new Map and Javelins as well. I still think this game will have a good future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a contract for the Freelancers that I didn't finish that was preventing me from getting a legendary mission, since you can only have one contract from each group at a time.

According to my Xbox, i have 37hrs in and I’m not even at level cap yet nor have I spent more than ~2hrs or so on the other javelins. Even if I get burnt out in another 10hrs, I got my money’s worth. Its a great game. No idea why it got trashed so hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, it could be that you still have one that you'd taken a long time ago. Could also be a bug, hell if I know, but just double check your missions to make sure you don't have one that you picked up ages ago.

Are either of the Yellow ones an Agent Mission, with a human figure instead of like the box? Also walk around town, go up those stairs near where the Sentinel stuff, go left and right, make sure the Commander doesn't want to talk. Go in the bar even if it doesnt show a convo bubble. There must be something you need to do to keep it going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDunks4 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 TL/DR Inscriptions will now be more relevant No more White/Greens on Lvl 30 Crafting Masterwork now 15 instead of 25 embers Also in the next day or two. Quick updates, which is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbob42 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 That's gonna be a pretty powerful update in terms of loot. Next step is getting actually unique MWs and Legendaries. A lot of the existing ones have cool effects, but look the same, which just will not do in the long-term. My big stupid Wish Ender bow in Destiny 2 may not be the best bow, but I use it because of how utterly ridiculous it is. There's a fucking statue on it with a sword, and as you pull the string back, the sword is filled with light/energy to show how charged the bow is. It's fucking idiotic and I love it. We need cool/exciting/dumb loot like that! This is a very good first step and I appreciate how agile they're being, though. They had two choices here: Massively increase the MW drop rate since 90% of them would be scrapped anyway after you realized they had bad stats, or this, so that each MW find is a lot more impactful and meaningful. This is actually kind of both, since the exclusion of white/green drops means more chances for MWs. A pretty measured and effective change, I hope it works well!

DarkStar189 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Got to the tombs challenge last night. I had done enough free play and side missions that 3 of the tombs were totally done. And all that I was missing from the other was finding enough collectibles and chests. Knocked out chests last night but ended after that because of a big server message that would pop up every minute to say servers were shutting down in 2 hours.

PaladinSolo Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I can't believe they let the game ship with loot in that shape, getting colossus gear with +pistol inscriptions just shouldn't happen. Better late than never i guess. Now they need to add a lot more variety to the weapons and equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I beat on hard a couple of times now... the thing is a couple of the squad should focus on the ramp leading up the platform and keep the insects from swarming. The other members should focus on the glowing electric orbs that drain your shields. If you ignore them, they will make this phase of Stronghold harder. Wish I could figure out how it glitched....but ran this mission with 3 friends and NONE of the bugs spawned. We sat up on the platform being zapped by the electric orbs, but no bus spawned in the entire section. Then we moved on to the next room, lol. Was fantastic!

The spy husband was one of my favorites little arch’s in the game. Oh and that old lady. So many tough dialog choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
