  • Mission Statement

    Our mission is to wrestle a flawed multi-million dollar game that has no idea what it is supposed to be (hence the platypus) into submission, become it's master and enjoy it, taking our pleasure from it where and when we can then rolling over and falling asleep on it because that's all it deserves. That being said, we are a casual group that enjoys fair play and humor. We are patient with beginners since we are clever enough to know everyone starts off as a neophyte. We may not be the best at PVP as a group, but we'll give it our best shot, hopefully, to our opponents face.......

Hollow Weenies

During this week only there's some special Halloween based loot. From IGN: In the tower, players can talk to the Postmaster and receive a package called All Hallow's Eve, which contains three Jackolyte items.  The Jackolyte, apart from being a clever play on the name of Hive enemies, is a Jack O'Lantern-esque mask that is equipped by consuming the item in your inventory. It remains on your character's head for thirty minutes. Another Halloween-themed item that is available now is the Flight of Shadow, another consumable item (earned by killing an unspecified number of Hive enemies) that alters a players respawn animation for a limited time. There were also several new skins for the Sparrow vehicle: S-30 Tumbler: Blue paint with orange flame decals. "It takes a skilled field mechanic to disable limiters without destabilizing the entire drive."S-31 Nightfall: Black paint with orange flame decals. "Drive fast and take risks."S-32 Snowflake: White paint with orange flame decals. "In modifying field drives, the limiting factor is tolerance to the idea of explosive engine disassembly."S-33 Dragonrider: Green paint with orange flame decals. "At some point, it will come down to how tightly you can hold on."

  • Bungie has stated they're aware the Jackolyte doesn't work for some people, and are looking into it. (Alas, all 3 of mine were duds). They confirmed a low drop rate from Hive for this week only. They also clarified you can carry 5 on your person, and store 5 in your vault.
