I think, for me, it just makes me pause in engaging heavily if I can't be certain that the results live up to the promise. What I mean by that is if content "homed" on one instance that is the heart of the given community doesn't properly replicate to remote instances then our foundation is a bit shaky. I am an avid Destiny player and the community here is attracting the most attention, but unless you participate on this server directly the federated results are random. :-/

It goes beyond posts, it's comments as well - I don't know who is the culprit, but I think it has something to do with API requests to lemmy.world silently failing. I noticed when trying to subscribe from other instances to communities here, it may take up to 5 tries of unsubscribe/subscribe and/or subscribing and waiting for 10 minutes without touching the browser window. When I do the same from other instances to each other (lemm.ee to kbin.social, lemmy.sdf.org to kbin.socal, e.g.) it works instantly. It seems to be when talking to lemmy.world that things... go sour.

Compare the source with comments to 2 remotes with no comments:

I'm leaning heavily into strand right now just to get those aspects farmed out (5 more to go), but I've seen some great builds for arc warlock I'm itching to try - I need (want) necrotic grips and I see arc is a beast in lost sectors in videos, once I get an easy farm arms day (chamber of starlight is my fave) I think we'll have to give it a shot. I've only played it enough to finish Ikora's intro quest and a few other minor missions which required arc class kills on the Moon.

Hunter main since I started playing ~1yr ago, collected all the exotics and sit at 1810. There was a post last season which explained how to insta-juice your alts to 1800 using some War Table engrams in a specific way, so I set up an alt Warlock and Titan just do do spoils / free chest farming.

I crafted an Osteo for my alt to earn/level, it's been the backbone of all PvE for this alt (I also cheated and pulled Wish-Ender just in case). In general though, I tried to earn every gun the alt plays with instead of pulling from the Vault ("it's just an alt, don't waste good stuff" I said).

By luck of the draw, pulling the past seasons gear using that Firefox extension I'd never claimed on this Warlock alt got me a really good set of spikey Ketchkiller armor (RNG was on my side that day!) So then I played Beyond Light to unlock Stasis and.... wow, I really like Stasis Warlock. (the super is OK but not great, though).

So I kept going - Lightfall to get strand, Witch Queen and Shadowkeep playing as strand - about to start the Dreaming City campaign today. It turns out I like Strand Warlock too! The super is great, I'm using a threadling grenade based build. We're at 1809 now trying to get those elusive final 1810 pinnacle armor drops while I earn strand meditations to unlock fragments. (grind)

Turns out, I think I like playing Warlock. Don't tell my Hunter main.

The Salvage keys fix reset to 0, so all the keys you spent the past 3 weeks don't count. Step 1 is 3 keys, step 2 is 10 keys... so I'm guessing 30-50 total? That's a lot of salvage missions. :-/

For this season with anti-barrier autos, for when I need one but it can't be an exotic in slot:

  • Firefright with surrounded, threat detector, ricochet, arrowhead, major spec
  • Sweet Sorrow with vorpal, pulse monitor, accurized, arrowhead, major spec
