So you guys keep stressing the fact that the forges are end game activities. Why then do I not receive high level rewards? I dont understand why only the weapon quests do. I just forged another auto rifle and it was 595 I am 615 beating a 625 activity. So it's not an end game activity then I don't get what's going on

oh i did mmine at 607 well because you have a fireteam, matchmaking is a joke stick this DLC where the sun dont shine rip off total uter rip off im done with the forge 4 days wasted

got my mg at light 617.. used telesto & it wrecked it

The five power reduction is all the Forge needs. Do not extend timers, or take away a big chunk of major or boss health. Players who keep dying and never use their supers for orbs deserve to not finish the Forge. Same for the ones who ignore Well of Radiance or Banner Shield for the boss, then even die outside those buffs. Same for players who go into melee range with the Forge Warden without a super. My first completion was without using Whisper, my second one was with Whisper though. If you can keep White Nail up it's really strong, I admit that.

Hey ya THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! For NOT increasing the power level cap in advance so we can play the new content right away. Really appreciate it.

I know you folks are working on the sniper frame debacle, Is there anyway you could let us restart the mission? Or have Ada-1 reissue a new frame? Thank for checking on this for us.

Anyway you can up the spawn rate on the Fallen Captain on Nessus? This is getting ridiculous having to fight off other players just to kill it.

I'm personally not finding issue with the LL requirement of the Forge, it is that unless i use LFG, the people who queue into the activity seemingly have forgotten how to coordinate, shoot, or use their supers.

Its not often that i get really pissed with the game and yourselves Bungie but a very frustrating week, as was really looking forward to Black armoury but find myself locked out. Why the hell did you not set the firt forge at a lower level.

Can you guy's tone down the gambit bounties like wtf 50 motes.

Management, you need to watch this and learn what we've all been saying, stop with the "we hear you" prattle and actually listen to what they're saying https://youtu.be/oXfaanLcqfU

There's an issue with the new forge boss. It's happened several times now where we get it down to a 1/3 of it's health and then it just becomes immune. We can't kill the Fallen or the Servitors that spawn in cause they're to high a level. Just another issue you need to be awear of.

Alright, I know that I'm late to this party (considering that this thread is now 23 pages long, maybe more depending on when I hit the post button), however I figured that I would give my two cents when it comes to Black Armory and the Black Forge (I'm not calling it that other name considering that I've been butchering it this entire week). Now I've been playing this on my stream this entire week, and I've honestly got to say that despite playing at level 600 at the start (and this was before the nurfing update bringing it down to 610), and the fact that powerful gear wasn't powerful at all, I've got to say that it's been a challenge. Now here are a few of the issues that I've encountered, and something that I noticed is an issue when it comes to the Black Forge. Now the first issue is the fact that despite the power level started 620 (or whatever you put it at at the start), the firing power on it did work, however despite making it where the shots were hardly even making a dent in the first place, it was a royal pain in the butt at the start. Now after you guys did lower the power level needed, the issue then becomes the fact that we can fight through at least the first two levels, the problem then becomes the fact that the entire thing becomes overwhelming. Meaning that each of the times that we're doing this, the number of enemies increases to the point that we can't get around or do anything just about. Yes there are areas that we can get through, however it's like a lot of the adds that come in didn't get the memo about being lower in power. Now the one thing about this is that even when we can barely make the lowest level in the area, even if we're able to get to the final boss, it's the adds in the entire thing that are extremely overwhelming, while you're trying to get out of the way and shoot the boss, they just about take over the place to make sure that you can't do anything. However on another same note, you've locked a lot of the players out of this DLC because if they missed both chances to actually get the Thunderlord (which is needed in order to actually get to the forge in the first place), then the players are getting screwed over. One player that looked through their pursuits noticed that they didn't have it any more. Now that right there isn't right. I know that for those that suddenly jumped over 620 in a couple of day, I'm sorry but there's players like myself that can't play this game just about 24/7. We do have lives and we do have to earn a live, not just to pay bills and keep a roof over our heads, but at the same time to make sure that they put food on the table, and then being able to put money in towards this amazing game. So for those players there (of which I am including myself as well), we're not going to be able to stay in the game constantly. I know that Bungie and the devs would love it if we did, however that's not possible. So for those players that missed literally ALL their chances, and you guys put the gun back into the exotics pool and are letting RNGesus give the gun up. You guys might want to rethink that and allow those folks that weren't able to do the mission the first time around, the chance of being able to do the Cryptarch mission. We know that it was time locked the first time around, however this time, allow it to be fully unlocked so that they have the chance of getting it without the exotics pool deciding if it wants to give it up (which at the current time 99% of the time, it's not going to). Just a little thought on that one. OK, all that right there is my two cents when it comes to everything that's been happening this week for the Black Armory and Forge.

Just curious why since Taken King are so many mechanics throwing balls all the time? Are you guys obsessed with balls?

any chance you could nerf the level down abit 630 power to complete isn't great for people under 590 to play the forge.
