We have an influx of new players this past week, so...!

Since Destiny-vanilla has become available for Free with "In-Game Purchases," I've noticed a sudden, large presence of Level 3's - 7's roaming the Cosmodrome. And they're not just "re-made alts," I'm thorough enough to check their achievements page, and notice that the vast majority of them have Destiny Achievements at 0% or 2 - 5%. For all of you newbies in the community, let me say: Welcome! -- I'm actually [b]GLAD[/b] to see another spike in the numbers for the games community. For all the bitching and griping that "Destiny is Dead/Dying," it's good to see that people still have interest in experiencing the game before dismissing it. With that being said, I'm here to offer my personal friendship and assistance to all of the new members who're just starting their Destiny-Grinds for the first time. I'm an Xbox One player, my GT is the same name you see on this forum. I'm level 40 and Light-Level 335. I've been playing Destiny since the BETA and have a very strong knowledge of the PVE world, and I'm happy to help anyone who needs help with their story-missions. Feel free to send me a Friend-Add on Xbox Live, and message me to let me know that you're new and looking for some help. I'm willing to help with Story-Missions, Patrols, Strikes, Nightfalls. If we can even get a group of 6 together, I'll help you complete Vault of Glass and Crota's End (The Old Raids), so you can get your first-hand experience of what we all battled through in our Destiny-Careers. As for PvP, I'm moderate. Not topping the leader-boards, but I have no problem getting 20-30+ kills and a positive KDR in a match. I can offer you beginners pointers and ways to help adjust to the mechanics and the pace in matches, and I can off you some advice on where to find BETTER advice than mine, if you need it. Add me and/or message me if you'd like someone to help you do your grind at your own pace, and we'll see how quickly we can get you new-comers up to date, and ready to join us at Felwinters Peak in Rise of Iron. In the words of, "My Name is Byf" -- I'll see you Star-Side.

    • I would love to offer my help as well. However, I offer the other side of the spectrum. I am not strictly business, but I certainly won't coddle you. I will be there to help continue pushing you forward. I'll let you make your own decisions "probably slander your bad ones in front of you, lol", but I'll be a strong foundation. At the current time I'm writing this I have the max grimoire of 5020 basically meaning I've collected and completed everything. My sarcasm is strong and my skills vary, but I can be a great friend.

        • Now I want Bungie to release their numbers. I want to see who's still playing out of the original 25 million registered characters, and how many new people buy Destiny with the next expansion, etc. But it's like they're afraid of releasing the numbers...

          • I got msg from a low level asking me to help him get past the first dark room where you meet the hive in the second or third mission. He was so puzzled when I just went in hammer swinging.

            • It would be nice to dust off my hammer or bow again. Any of you who are new to the destiny universe and play Xbox. I'd be more than happy to help you out. This game really doesn't give me much incentive anymore

                  • Nice post... I originally played on the ps4 while i was home for 3 months after a motorcycle accident. I got my daughter hooked on the game, but she wanted an xbone to play the game. Got my wife to okay an xbone for myself and started the grind all over on the xbone...pretty painfull. Stopped playing for a while after getting burned out on Crota and only came back recently. Bought the rise of iron dlc and so I am back. Dont have many friends since im fairly older than most console players...put it this way my youngest daughter is in here 4th year at college. Feel free to send an invite if you want
