Confessions of a 29 Titan

1. I spent the first month of this game beating every strike, mission and raid the way it was meant to be played. 2. In the last week or so, I have played with "cheap" tactics such as hiding under platforms to beat certain priests and so on. 3. I love to take friends farming, I seem to have a sharp eye and knack for chests and materials so they always ask. 4. Sometimes I have 100+ of the material my friends want to farm for... and I go along anyways, even if I need 3 more of a different material to complete an upgrade. 5. I give my own voice-over and act out the loading screen dialogues. 6. I have pushed an AFK'er or two off the nearest ledge with my Sparrow. 7. I have never AFK'd a match, strike, or mission. 8. I jump off of the tower. Alot. I don't know why I do this. 9. My first Exotic dropped during my first Nightfall clear after 2 weeks of failure. I celebrated! 10. I bought my second Exotic with Strange Coins I earned by spending hours on chests, strikes, publics, etc. 11. I spent a week and a half farming for Vanguard marks, not realizing I had reached the cap of 200 already. I've looked but... the Lost Items service doesn't recognize my pain :( 12. Sometimes I stand far away in the Mothyards with a sniper rifle, and count "eenie, meenie, minie, moe" to select a random target for death. Then I hop on my Sparrow and go about my business. 13. I get so excited when I see a Public Event pop up. 14. My first time in Vault of Glass, I freely admitted that I didn't know what I was doing. I was then able to learn a role. 15. I have learned the importance of explaining the encounters in VoG if there's anyone I don't know in the group, because some people are too embarrassed to admit their first time. 16. I get upset if my usual Pike gets taken after Dinklebot askes if we think they'd mind. It's the second from the right. Please steer clear of it. 17. If someone is being a kill hog and buries themselves at a cave, door or "enemies are moving against each other" entrance, I drop a bubble on it. 18. Sometimes I will randomly follow another player around and kill whatever they are shooting at to help. 19. I have a deep loathing for Minotaurs, especially in the Nexus. 20. My hate for Psion majors with shields has almost reached #19. 21. Whoever decided to give Knights and Hobgoblins shield abilities.... I hope you get the flu. 22. I refuse to wear a Titan Mark that isn't long and flowing and fancy. No matter how much rep it gives me. 23. When I'm in a Fireteam in orbit getting ready for a raid, I look at all the spaceships rolling deep and play gangsta rap music in my head. 24. I kill all Captains on principle. Even if I have to go out of my way to do it. I dislike how cocky they are. 25. I like to push members of my Fireteam away from the NPC they're talking to in the Tower while they are in their menus. 26. I will kick your ball off the edge of the tower. 27. I look at the gouges in the moon and wonder what happened. 28. I don't think everything is as it seems. 29. I was a massive loot cave whore. 30. My laundry piles up more than it used to. 31. My Titan is female. Sometimes it does disturbing things to the male Titans in the Tower. 32. I have never thrown a dance party in my Bubble :( 33. Sometimes during encounters I fall off the map and blame someone else for pushing me off. 34. I don't understand why our space ships fly backwards before diving forward in orbit. 35. I still scream like Chris Tucker in the Fifth Element when Stealth Vandals swarm me. Feel free to add your own! EDIT: For those of you looking to party up and have a blast playing Destiny, I'm on Xbox One. My GT is Veilsix, feel free to message or party invite or add or follow :) EDIT 2: I'm getting so many messages and friend requests, I think I'm keeping up ok but sometimes I miss a message... feel free to just join my fireteams or parties or better yet, just invite me!!!

    OMG! I spent the entire morning reading this thread! LOL. LvL28 and 9/10ths Titan... BECAUSE I KEEP GETTING ASCENDANT ENERGY INSTEAD OF SHARDS. I've found SOO MUCH in common with others in this thread it's not even funny... 1) I too scream "FALCON PUUUNCH!" when using my Striker Super. 2) I wish there was open communications with PvP Fire Teams and a proximity Comms with enemies just so they could hear me holler "FALCON PUUUNCH!" 3) Going back to (2)... Others would often hear "FALCON P... Damn It" because someone has killed me just when I start the animation. 4) Also going back to (2)... Others may also hear "FALCON OOOOPS!" when i jump into a crowd and blow a bubble. 5) I also say "Welcome to the Thunderdome", "Two men enter, one man leaves" (even though I play a female), and "Not in MY house!" when I blow a bubble. 6) I often forget which modifier I have on my bubble... I use different setups between PvP & PvE... and I suffer the consequences for it. 7) I commonly use words or vernacular better suited to my children... AWESOMESAUCE is one... and my son laughs at me when we play together. 8) I like to turn on the fan when people are sitting on top of the Post Office just minding their own business. 9) I MUST shoot EVERY exploding object on the map... especially when my Fire Team walks past them. 10) I either want a poop brown shader for my Titan or a Chatterwhite shader for my ship so they can be color coordinated. 11) I've gotten Exotics from RNGesus, Xur, bounties, and VoG and feel like I "earned" all of them. 12) I didn't know what people were doing when they were "farming the loot cave"... I ran in for a heavy ammo drop and was greeted with friendly fire and people punching me... So I sat down for a hot minute (I'll never do that again... apparently Bungie frowns on this). 13) I passed up the Exotic Titan Chest plate in lieu of a Stealth Drive because I can't keep up with a normal Sparrow. 14) I give Strike Jack Rabbits a head start because I can catch and pass them with my Legendary Sparrow. 15) All patrols and loot chest/material runs feel like a race... I have to "bump" other Sparrows into rocks or off cliffs because "if you're not rubbing (bumping) it's not racing" 16) I haven't killed a PvPer with my Legendary Sparrow... but if my Fire Team is hopelessly losing then I will shamelessly keep trying. 17) I keep forgetting that you can't "grenade jump"... you woulda thought I might have sorted that out already. 18) I like saying "HERE... HOLD THIS!" when I throw a Magnetic Grenade. 19) I say "Thank You" when the Magnetic Grenade goes off. 20) When I'm waiting for Public Events, I like to watch for other PvEers in the Mothyard or Forgotten Shores and snipe their targets when they get into melee range. 21) I'm a Faction whore... I own a Titan Mark from each Faction... I feel like I need to be at least Rank 3 for EVERY Vendor (still working on it). 22) I only played about a dozen Crucible matches before the Iron Banner event... now my game type count is about even between Story, Strikes, Patrols, and Control. 23) I bought my 21 y/o son his own copy of Destiny just so I would have someone to play with. 24) My wife and my daughter-in-law have expressed feelings of neglect DURING a Nightfall run. 25) I joined a Clan because I didn't have enough friends to conduct a VoG Raid. 26) my son is NOT in my Clan 27) I HATE the Gunsmith & RNGesus... I'm convinced that the only reason I can't get rare Fusion Rifles is because I need them for a bounty... I had TONS of them before. 28) I retired between the Beta and the Launch, just a phenomenal coincidence... my lawn has suffered since the Launch... especially during Queen's Wrath and Iron Banner. 29) I want to play other Characters but haven't been able to resist the urge to play my Titan. EDIT: I forgot a few... 30) I LOVE the Shoulder Charge and I will only select that option on the skill tree for my Striker... mostly for PvP 31) The ONLY thing better than the Shoulder Charge is the FLYING SHOULDER CHARGE! 32) The ONLY thing better than the Flying Shoulder Charge is actually connecting with an opponent while we're both in the air. 33) I like to call my Flying Shoulder Charge "The Flying Ninjer Kick"... even though it's a knee strike. 34) I frequently Shoulder Charge into a wall, comrade, or off the map leaving behind laughing opponents AND team members. 35) It's probably a good thing I can't hear them laughing because it would trigger my uncontrollable sympathetic laughter which would result in multiple spawn deaths until I could compose myself again. 36) I like to say "JUDY CHOP!" when I melee from inside my bubble. 37) In my bubble melee frenzy I often Judy Chop my allies by mistake... thank god there's no friendly fire. 38) I have never attempted to Flying Ninjer Kick and Judy Chop at the same time... I've learned from Diemon Dave on YouTube that "There's not much call for a one legged Ninjer out there" EDIT: 39) Every time someone drops Orbs of Light I say "Oooh, a piece of candy" in my best James Woods voice and run over to pick them up. 40) If I REALLY need to charge a Super I say "Did anybody leave any candy laying around here?". 41) I have to choose between wearing my headset or my hearing aids... damn noise exposure from years of service to king and country. 42) I frequently wear my headset when nobody can hear me -_-
