A word about The Last Word

** Read in FULL before commenting ** For starters, it’s day one of the quest. Calm down and breathe. So you don’t like pvp? Okay, that’s fair. But don’t attack others or Bungie. There has to be a little bit for everyone of every play style and I believe Bungie has gotten pretty good at that. So there’s a pvp quest step or two - deal with it. Not every gun/item is for everyone. What happened to grinding for loot or accomplishing a hard task/quest because it was a sense of accomplishment? D1 vets ‘member sleeper grind. Give it time for all the “sweaties, pros, etc” to grind this out and move on. You don’t need it RIGHT THIS MOMENT. Sometimes quests/grinds aren’t about checking off each box along the way. Sometimes it’s about self improvement. Luna’s Howl and Not Forgotten, both are extremely hard to get pvp guns. Most average players hate those who have it. Why? People hate those who have things they don’t, it’s human nature. Am I amazing at pvp? Not by a mile, but I have Luna’s. Why? I thought about the quest as a journey of self improvement and not a grind. Don’t blame others or Bungie for what you don’t have because you’re not good in pvp or willing to improve yourself. Practice, you didn’t leave your mother’s womb with a MVP metal in hand. I worked hard to pre-aim/fire, slide, jump at the right times, learn the spawns/maps and heavy timers. Did it make me a better Destiny player? Yes. Did I get frustrated? You bet! (Telesto). But I got it, not by solo pvp. I went outside my comfort zone and messaged people after a game (team or fo) and tried to team up. Half the time it worked and payed off, sometimes it didn’t happen or I lost games and we split. That’s life, not everything is perfect and happens instantly. I made friends along the way, some I still talk to and play with, others I added but haven’t had an interaction with since. That’s okay. LFG exists for this reason, use it. Use your tools. LFG, community sites/clubs. All exist to find like minded people. Stay calm, cool and collected. It’s a game. Not worth breaking a controller (do you have $$ to replace that?) or losing friends/family or black listing yourself on LFG because you lost your cool. If you need Last Word RIGHT NOW you need to stop and reconsider what this game is to you. It’s a digital gun. That’s it. Nothing more nothing less, it isn’t going on your resume. And your being obsessive over literally nothing. “Get good” or “noob” if these anger you then you don’t need to be playing an online game. Simple. These terms exist beyond pvp. Get over it. There will always be trolls where anger exists to fuel the flames (strikes, raids, new content). All in all, breathe and let the community enjoy this new content and believe in yourself that in time you’ll get this gun on your own terms. Thanks for reading and good luck out there guardians!

  • the crucible part of the quest is not even a problem. its doable and and its manageable. there should even be a problem. the weapon is tailored to pvp but its fun in PVE. i like it. i practice with the weapon. i feel good with it, and i earned through the effort i put into the quest. took me 2 hours to complete and was done. the last step was fun to do (but a pain in the ass). players who complain about the crucible steps for the quest shouldn't even get the weapon or should just stop playing destiny 2. players wanna complain about quest steps with crucible? try getting the chaperone in d1. the quest was so painful that i never got it, but i put in that effort.

        Missed the point of people’s anger by a mile. 1. No skill matching. 2. No protection from stacked and clan teams. 3. Pinnacle weapon. 4. Then a quest where dying cost you progress. It’s another example of no respect for the average player. I’ve had SIX Quickplay matches mercied

            • I am finding the shoot the gun part of this quest much more frustrating than the pvp part. I can’t shoot the -blam!-ing gun! Gah!

            • The quest was easy on a carebear level... The biggest pain in the ass was the 15 etched stones or w/e... 1st pvp part, you could just pulse rifle your way through in 3-4 games if you wanted to stay passive... 2nd pvp part, go into mayhem.. have fun and complete the step quickly. Took a collective 3 hours to do this entire quest, can't believe all of the tears I've read.

            • It’s pretty easy to get honestly I don’t see why people are whining, I did the quest entirely solo yesterday.

                • You nailed it. I just completed the crucible step this morning before work taking my time and trying to have fun with it. Sure it was slightly frustrating to die a couple times in a row knowing my progress was being subtracted but I never let it get the best of me. People are to quick to judge and hate. This world would be alot better of a place if we all learned to take a deep breath before screaming our initial reaction.

                • That was exactly my mentality last night. Finished the first step and said screw it, gonna go do other stuff and wait for the sweat of week 1 to clear before trying the 2nd step.

                • It’s the truth man. People are so convinced that they are shit and can’t improve. No one started out good at anything.

                  • Except that it really is a checklist grind. That is what Black Armory is all about. And to be honest, I keep as much of my cool as possible by reminding myself that I am here for objectives and not victory. I am almost finished with redrix and then I begin the descent into hell for LH and NF. I am determined to get both, though I have no intention of using them. I admit that my skills might improve, but I don't think that it will be to any significant extent. And I don't really hate the people who have earned LH and NF. I hate Bungie more for introducing them to the game. I think that pinnacle weapons cause more harm than good. I don't think highly of people using them in quick play, since comp pinnacle weapons should be hindered outside of comp.
