If you can't beat them...
... join them.
I accepted a fate last night, about our hate to love love to hate crackcocaine of a game. During some IB matches where I was having fun and wrecking house I found myself doing the one thing that gets a lot of complaints-
Team shooting.
I accepted that it was the whole point.
I spent eight years of my life drilling and training in the US Army Infantry. Any infantryman, whether Army, Marine, or SF of any branch, will tell you that deliberate and well executed small team tactics can dominate the battlefield.
With the guardians being in the Vanguard, and the Vanguard being the military arm of the City, and Shaxx being the trainer of said military, it makes absolute frustrating sense that team shoot is the way to go.
With that rationale, I guess I have no choice but to fall in.
Although still seeing and being able to wipe 3 or 4 of the team on your own is still awesome and satisfying.
You guys know if there is a Destiny Rehab?

Well the Vanguard and Shaxx are absolutely not anything like the military. I mean Ghosts and Guardians are finite. So what does the Vanguard do with weak newborn Guardians? Well they don’t give them good gear to stay alive, that’s for certain. After the defeat on the Moon Guardian numbers dwindled to the point where the City and Vanguard doubted their survival. Why don’t they help new Guardians? An excerpt from grimoire card Glimmer: Newborn Guardians often complain that they should be issued high-quality gear for free - are they not, after all, fighting for the future of the City? Unfortunately, this gear requires resources to manufacture. Guardians must bring in enough Glimmer and other staples, like spinmetal and relic iron, to keep the engine of the City's economy turning. If good times lead to a resource boom, that surplus may help mass-produce advanced gear. Oddly that mirrors the Sword Logic when you think about it.
