Who's with me? Who wants this gun so bad, but sucks so hard in PvP? It feel like every time I start making headway, something happens that knocks me flat on my face and drags me kicking and screaming back to 0.
My load out is
Primarily - Epilogue *void*
Secondary - Revenge or void shotty
Heavy - Corrective Measure *void*
I run Hunter Bladedancer in PvP for the invisibility perks.
All that said....I get rekt almost every damned time. When I do have a good game it never fails that the next two are so bad that I loose whatever progress I gained.
This isn't a "nerf the bounty" thread. Thorn should be difficult to obtain. This is a "rant or throw my controller" thread. I never get pissed when I play PvE. I'm calm and will joke around with my friends in party. However I turn into a whiney, screaming, forehead vein popping little twit in PvP. Not at the other players because they are just playing the game. I get pissed at me because I blow donkey dick. I seem to enjoy it too because I keep coming back for more. *try and get that image out of your head now*
I try to snipe...sometimes that works. Then I get thrown in maps where sniping really isn't an option. Ok, so let's use the Epilogue and shotty combo! Nope FML because I get owned. Not only do I get owned, but I get owned so hard I feel like I owe whatever team that I happen to get matched with a damned apology. *if I was ever on your team, I'm truly sorry. If you were on the other team...you're welcome for the easy kills, bastards.*
Anyways...I've been told you can cheat, but I won't do that. I'll cheese PvE sometimes because what I do doesn't affect other players and the bounties are the only true weapons you earn. So, no cheating.
I know I suck. I know I need to "get good". I know I'm a PvP scrub.
All those players in the same boat as me feel free to commiserate in here. All those that want to give me crap for sucking...feel free.
On a side note I did complete the Bad Juju bounty...Yay?
*So, I took a lot of people's advice. I ran strikes until I got a green void fusion rifle. It's slow as -blam!- to charge and I will be praying for a better RNG drop today, but it's the game changer. On advice I also changed my primary for those "oh shit moments" to The Last Word. In 3 control matches I went from 0 to 76. Once I get a better fusion rifle with a faster charge rate I should be able to knock this out fast. Thanks to everyone for their encouraging words! I'll keep everyone updated as to my progress on this friggen bounty.*
Update*
Yeah I got it. Once I figured out what I needed to do as far as weapon load out it was easy. Honestly forgot about this thread but I got it 2 weeks ago?

2 OdpowiedziI ran the same loadout, revenge as sniper, it took my 6-7 games
-
2 OdpowiedziIs corrective measure a machine gun or rocket launcher. Machine guns are imo more effective for this bounty than rocket launchers. I did it with Atheons epilogue Comedian Zombie apocalypse
-
1 OdpowiedźThis is my life I've had the bounty for about 6 weeks and I haven't got past about 120 points in pvp. I got as far as 180 but lost all my progress. Epilogue sucks, ive leveled up a shitty void fusion rifle with max impact that I've been meaning to try but I'm not in a rush to pull my hair out again
-
1 OdpowiedźJust spam a void fusion rifle. That'll get you kills. I used a green fusion rifle and the swarm. Took me 12 games
-
1 OdpowiedźThe pvp isnt even the worst part of the bounty lol.
-
6 OdpowiedziI abandoned this bounty three times before I knuckled down to do do it, so don't feel bad! Tips: play with a team, stay close to your team mates play defensively, being aggressive will get you killed Assists count as kills, so spray and run. Be patient, not all matches will be good ones You just have to stick it out. It's the hardest exotic weapon bounty, and it feels good once it's done! Good luck Guardian!
-
Invisibility effects aren't worth squat in Crucible. You're just trading them for useful ones.
-
2 OdpowiedziYay for bad juju, it stinks for me at the moment but I'm going once I unlock the second perk it will be much better. Thorn on the other hand tears bitzhes a new one.
-
Warlock voidwalker shotgun void easy
-
Anybody get a "Clerks" flashback lol!
-
2 OdpowiedziHave you tried a fusion rifle? I got lucky on a drop and got a really good fusion rifle that does void damage but even a blue one was working for me at the time. I am decent at crucible (around 1.25) but when I had the thorn bounty I was camping and getting crushed cause that's not my usual play style. Once I told my self "just treat it like a normal game" I was doing a lot better. I like playing control so I didn't capture any zones but ran back and forth to what zones we already captured and picked people off trying to steal. I also stayed behind teammates and let them die while picking off the scraps. It's a bitch to do and if you start losing points just take a break otherwise it will be a rage spiral and you will do worse.
-
5 OdpowiedziTook no no time too do this bounty get athon epilogue and don't cry about it
-
I don't think I'll ever complete it :( Don't have Epilogue after many VoG runs lol
-
Stop moving around the map. Camp kill spots and doors. The other team will rage at you but as long as you have more kills than deaths, you're helping the team you are on and scoring points for your Thorn. I suck at pvp too but was lucky to run it with my voidwalker and a team of clan mates that knew what I was doing. No cheese, all in control. A team of friends really does help...or use game chat so those that use it as well know what you're doing. No shame in it, the game forces us PVE players into PVP if we want bounty weapons.
-
6 OdpowiedziI feel you, I don't agree with forcing the PvE players to play PvP. I feel that the vanguard and crucible should have the own exotic bounties so that everyone can do that they enjoy instead of being forced to partake is stuff that they don't like. I have both the juju and thorn bounties on my hunter, both at the crucibal stages, both probably never get done. I absolutely hate the PvP in this game and yes it is because I suck at it and don't want to spend the time to improve my skills at something I don't enjoy. Great post op.
-
2 OdpowiedziI flew through this bounty yesterday. It took me about 4 to 5 hours from the time I got the bounty to the time I got the gun. But I also used the sword breaker and defender titan. For the crucible part. It took me about 6 rounds to get the 500 points.
-
Play with friends, ask to team up. A good team means you won't get pooped on as much. Ask them to help assist you or something. Play skirmish also. Short games and easier to know where the enemy is and the best measure to take against them. Good luck man!
-
Just a few tips, run around with a Void shotgun and treat is like your primary weapon. Do Rumble, theres too much going on at once in Control or Clash.
-
lol i remember the bounty i think it was pretty easy but the pvp part took me about 2 hours -_-
-
Just finished that part with sword breaker and the last word.
-
swordbreaker from crota.... absolutely -blam!-s in crucible
-
I did the thorn bounty in its entirety night before last, i also used the epilogue and secret handshake with voidwalker on my lock. This was the first time i ever did crucible apart from completing one bounty the first week i played, join control and only focus on killing, not zone control. Stay away from regular paths and keep to the rarely traveled paths so you dont get surrounded by 2 or 3 at once, the shotty was best for up close. Took about an hour and a half for me to complete that portion of the bounty. Also if you get frustrated easily take breaks often.
-
I was having a rough time with Epilogue too until I got the stability perk unlocked, huge difference
-
2 OdpowiedziLol I love people like you please keep playing so i continue to reap in the kills
-
1 OdpowiedźDude, Equip that Truth and wait for heavy spawns. Guaranteed 3 kills errytime.
-
I got through it playing control, using the invisibility skill with the Bladedancer and shotgunning people in the back. I suck at PvP but it took me about 3 hours that way. Although I sped up a lot when I got more confident and switched to a fusion rifle with fast charge time and decent range.
