  • One of the best tip videos I’ve seen!!! Straight forward, informative, and tons of info I haven’t seen compiled together elsewhere. Good job!!!
  • @alankuo7289
    Tip: you can move and shoot while reviving, just stay close to the ghost so you don’t lose the circle.
  • @AyoubKhote
    Surely you mean "Cues" as in a cue to do something on stage and in game, as opposed to "queue" which means lining up to wait for your turn.
  • @MrAndy76101
    The final tip has been the biggest game changer for my team. Started using double Aeons for Heavy to slash times for longer runs like Hallowed lair, or farms like your LoS strat. My team finds the preparation the tips lay out as part of the fun at this point. Great accumulated knowledge in this guide.
  • As someone who has only been playing for a little over a month, this is a god roll video. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the info you presented. I had no idea how much I still didn't know about the game. Thank you. I'm trying to be better and this will help a lot.
  • @Nukyyy
    Love the subtle lofi in the background. Gives it a chill vibe and makes it easier to listen to.
  • @izhatter
    as they say at my job.. what does this look like? & why does it work this way? & what happens when we do this versus this? Excellent vid!!! Enjoy your vacation!!!
  • @xquantumx7052
    I main pvp but I gotta say your guides have been indispensable for me and my team to get thru pve gated stuff
  • @usmc4good
    Never heard of the 40/60 rule, gonna have to give that a try because sometimes I just seem to struggle clearing enemies and I just don’t know why. I do notice sometimes I just seem to get surrounded and burnt down really quick. I will have to pay attention to this more. (Positioning) Thank you, great video, gave me a lot to think about. You earned a new sub…
  • Thanks for the video. Lots of good advice. One small editing suggestion. In Item #1, I think you meant gaming "cues", not queues. The first is an indicator, the second is a line for something (like being in a matchmaking queue).
  • @demonjoe
    Commenting for that SWEET SWEET algorithm 😎
  • @AboveDestiny
    Which tip did you find to be the most useful?! What tips would you offer players trying to improve at PVE? I hope you enjoy the video!
  • More on resist mods! Using two different resist mods can give you more damage resistance than using two of the same mod. As stated in the video, two of the same mods stack up to a 40% DR. But let's say, for example, that you are fighting against an arc sniper combatant: using two sniper resists or two arc resists makes you take 40% less damage but using both the arc elemental resist and the sniper resist TOGETHER gives you a damage resistance closer to 43%. This can be super useful for activities where a specific enemy type keeps killing you so you can stack both an elemental resist mod and a different resist mod for just a tiny bit of added survivability.
  • @blucorsa_
    W video. Very good beginner tips, especially the ones on different buffs/debuffs and enemy types. I meet tons of people who don't know Champions aren't bosses and are always surprised when I tell them to not use boss spec for them.
  • @sonny6810
    I started playing the Destiny franchise in D2... never played D1. I was supposed to play with a bunch of friends, and they all bailed and quit the game. Clear and concise, and straight forward and to the point... this is by far the best video I've seen when it comes to great tips all in one place. You just got a new subscriber. Thanks for the time man! Excellent!
  • @BobbyT92190
    Excellent video! The 40/60 rule/positioning is incredibly useful and I think is essential for players to be successful with end game content. It’s become second nature and sometimes I forget to mention it to newer players when playing something like a GM. Thanks for this and I will definitely be sharing this to friends. Have a great vacation!
  • Just returned, I played at release and stopped shortly after. There are so many layers to this game now. Optimization is a hell of a rabbit hole now. After a week of playing the ftp portion of the game, this video has opened my eyes to entire systems I wasn’t aware of.
  • Solid, as always! That Barrier champ took you tf out in tip 2 hahah
