[red latch]

ok so rockets with snipers or whats up

or smth else

also wtf is bolt charge

[steel sundial]

it is probably the strongest heavy weapon in the game rn bar maybe hezen or winterbite

[steel sundial]

new arc thing

basically it builds up to 10 and when it hits 10 your next ability hit will call down a strike of lightning on that enemy

with the storms keep aspect on titan, you don't need ability hits, you can stand behind a rally barricade and your weapons discharge it

as well as standing behind a rally barricade and doing damage with it also increases your stacks

[red latch]

hmm thats cool, I assume witnerbite is with wormgod

I just came back so I dont ahve any artifact stuff

[steel sundial]

with the artifact right now, it deals absolutely absurd amounts of damage and can be stacked up very quickly

[red latch]

so I cant use that

so id prefer laodouts that dont rlly need them

[steel sundial]

shouldnt really matter anyway you have 2 weeks lol

artifact aint gonna matter

[red latch]

true but I like having builds made

but i also hear I shouldnt make builds at all bc of the armor stuff

but i feel alot of my gear is sub bar rn since I only have the start of final shape gear

[steel sundial]

you should make builds, just leave out the armor part of it for later

[exotic fjord]

OK so after the amount of days I have, I just do the same thing over again by stuff and then acquire it

[steel sundial]

dattos "weapons you should get before edge of fate" video is pretty good actually

[red latch]

so just make the weapons and build portion?

and touch on armor lightly

[steel sundial]

builds wise, the meta will form itself once the expansion drops

[red latch]

so queens breaker, winterbite, and rocket with...?

those 3?

[steel sundial]

winterbite will be

[red latch]

I assume stuff like outbreak and le monqure are good

[steel sundial]

absolutely gutted in edge of fate

so you don't really need to think about that one

[red latch]

oh why

is it artifact dependent

[steel sundial]

big melee and glaive nerf

also artiact

[red latch]

oh

[steel sundial]

most people are preparing either solar, prismatic or strand titan builds right now

[red latch]

what would be a good close range option then? just swords

[steel sundial]

banner of war will be pretty good, same with synthos hammer

[red latch]

the same old same old

[steel sundial]

lord of wolves

[red latch]

wait what

lol

[steel sundial]

yeup

[red latch]

???

[jaunty whale]

It got giga buffed

[red latch]

so solo lord..., queens breaker

and ig rockets

[jaunty whale]

Now just shreds in pve

[steel sundial]

it got nerfed and its still one of the highest damage weapons in the game lol

[red latch]

whats a good rocket pair for titan

[steel sundial]

hezen vengeance

the only rocket you should ever use

[red latch]

I mean like pair

what to sue with it

Iuse the cayde sni[er

but used izi alot before

[steel sundial]

for rotations, witherhoard and something like wilderflight

[red latch]

is that a gl?

[steel sundial]

yeah its for a swap rotation

[red latch]

oh are microchasm and sleeper good

[steel sundial]

sleepers meh

microcosm is still good easy dps like thunderlord

[red latch]

ok so I dont have that Ill use a diff gl/weapon

[steel sundial]

should shred most easy content

[red latch]

I dont have anything recent

so

[steel sundial]

its available from rite of the nie

nine

right now

[red latch]

oh

ok

oh wait...

that weapon

is it farmable...

[steel sundial]

hezen? or wilderflight

[red latch]

wilder

[steel sundial]

vog isnt farmable rn but you can get a decent hezen if you have enough spoils

wilderflight is

all of the rotn weapons are

[red latch]

ik how to get hezen

[steel sundial]

do you have a new one though

specifically one with envious arsenal/bait n switch

[red latch]

nope I need to get it

might have BnS

but not enviy

[steel sundial]

that and getting rite of the nine weapons should be your priority right now

as well as seasonal weapons

as those will be going away

[red latch]

can I look up those builds? or are they in the serber somehwere

Im trying to compile the stuff rn

[steel sundial]

you can put in some requests in #1135936155527946280

i might pull some shit together for ya if i have time

my builds arent perfect but they can help steer you in the right direction lol

[shell nova]

Ok everyone I’ve seen is saying vespers is bugged

[steel sundial]

is it seriously bugged again

i thought they fixed this

[shell nova]

I mean I’ve done like 20 clears

Only 2 legendary super clear

On one character

[exotic fjord]

Is it worth making a warlock cause I’ve got the other two classes

[nocturne isle]

tehre was a post by bungie on their forums around 25 days ago saying they were aware of an issue, but they didnt say what the issue was, it never showed up on their known issues lists in twabs, so we just don't know

I'm trying to farm icebreaker as well so its pretty frustrating

[twin badger]

Do we know if enchantment prism, cores, and ascendant shard are staying?

[shell nova]

20 clears and nothing

[nocturne isle]

oof

I'm only on 3 right now, I'll let you know if I get it this week

[shell nova]

I swear it’s still bugged

[tulip oar]

They are. Upgrade Modules are the only standard material getting deprecated

[safe quartz]

can you farm warlords even tho its not in rotation?

[shell nova]

No

[safe quartz]

thne why did i get loot twice from the first boss on the same charcater?

[celest wyvern]

whats best RL i can farm for (preferably not from raids)

[opaque socket]

How do I get nightfall ciphers? I would like to unlock the lotus water adapt

[shell nova]

Gms

What’s the power gonna be to enter old dungeons once EOF launches

Cause I’m gonna still need do vespers assuming I don’t get this sniper in 5 clears

[opaque socket]

How hard are they?

[shell nova]

Uh -20 iirc with a bunch of modifiers

Easy just time consuming

Also depends on the week

[tepid yew]

Hezen is far and away the best, it's from VOG (raid). Easy to get though.

Cold Comfort from RotN is your next best option.

Cynosure from Vanguard Ops is the only other option

[opaque socket]

How's this week?

[shell nova]

Idk

[celest wyvern]

I have hezen and cold just dont think theyre great rolls, i'll check out light.gg for specifics

[tepid yew]

Light.gg is not a good resource for checking rolls

[celest wyvern]

What would be a good resource then ?

I normally just look at the trait combos

[tepid yew]

The trait combos are auto generated based on what is in people's vaults. It ends up generating some weird combos

[steel sundial]

#💎shard-it-keep-it

we can tell you what to look for

[tepid yew]

Is that for Psychopomp?

[celest wyvern]

ah okay, is there any other online resources that are atleast somewhat accurate so im not spamming the channel with every drop and atleast have some idea

[celest wyvern]

Yes

I just got the first roll

so i was checking already

[tepid yew]

Almost every combo listed there is bad. The best combo is Ambitious + Frenzy + Runneth

[celest wyvern]

ah lol alright, thank you

what rolls would i be looking for on hezen or cold comfort ?

[tepid yew]

Envious Aresnal + Bait and Switch / Elemental Honing

Honing requires being on Prismatic

Don't be afraid to spam #💎shard-it-keep-it with rolls, that's why it's there

[celest wyvern]

thank you!

[tepid yew]

Don't shard your rolling storm roll, I'll explain something in a sec

[celest wyvern]

is it worth using essence of desire on chests or should i save for rituals

[tepid yew]

Anecdotally I've never gotten anything good from the chests, so I just spend all mine on keeping the rituals going. But if you're close to capping your essence of desire, open chests so you're not wasting them

[stoic trout]

Could someone help me out with speed running light fall from the mission headlong please

[high lily]

(all the rolling storm rolls are bad, but the Arsenal + Honing roll is actually decent for boss damage if you have acess to the Prismatic subclass)

[celest wyvern]

is arsenal homing best then or is there others? i've heard its a pretty good GL so i wanted to try to pick one up

[high lily]

for boss damage yes
for regular use you want what Wing suggested already

[coarse kernel]

someone explain why i cant launch a quest... bare in mind i am new and this game is sooo confusing

[high lily]

because its telling you to buy the Episode

[coarse kernel]

bruh i gotta pay real money to do quest.

what am i seeing

[high lily]

the seasonal quest, yes

[coarse kernel]

warframe is better for this exact reason....

[tepid yew]

If you want an idea of to look for prior to asking in #💎shard-it-keep-it , there are some helpful spreadsheets that get regularly updated that list out the useful perks. The easiest is Bozo-68's PvE Godroll Spreadsheet. Each weapon tab covers the best weapons of each element in that archetype and a good roll or two that should cover most uses. The General Information tab is also really nice because it touches on the best barrel + mag combinations for each weapon archetype which is something other lists generally overlook.

If you want a more comprehensive but advanced list, Aegis' Destiny 2: Endgame Analysis is worth checking out. Aegis is a record-holding speed runner who does a lot of analysis of the endgame, including how every weapon stacks up. He's created tier lists for each weapon archetype ranking every weapon against each other in the archetype, along with the perks he considers valuable. It can be a little confusing to read at times but should help to point you in the direction of what's good. If all of that is feeling too overwhelming, the Shopping List tab has what he considers to be the most impactful weapons at end game, which forms a very convenient list for you to go after.

You will very likely have questions even after consulting these sheets, which is a big part of why #💎shard-it-keep-it is good. Ask questions about rolls, get others opinions on them, try and understand why people are suggesting certain things.

[tepid yew]

No one is forcing you to play Destiny 🙂

[coarse kernel]

true but i was told by a friend to give destiny a try and i did. its a good game dont get me wrong, but even tho its free to play, its not exactly free to play content inside of the game.....

[celest wyvern]

thank you very much :D

[twin badger]

How come Artifact doesn't change with loadout change? Its a pain manually swapping

[left wagon]

They just don’t allow it for some reason

We can hope one day

It’s constantly requested so maybe sometime it’ll be implemented. I understand the pain lol

[tepid yew]

Just the base game is free to play, the DLCs are all paid. It's similar to many other MMOs in that way. At least D2 doesn't have a subscription fee haha

[coarse kernel]

true but look at warframe, every single mission, quest and challenges are free.

[twin badger]

Atleast let us have like 2 or 3 presets, I can't swap any type of weapons without needing a full artifact redo

[high lily]

2 campaigns. 3 raids 1 dungeon

[left wagon]

3 dungeons currently.

[errant gate]

Hello, I've been out of the game for about a year, heard about the new armour system roughly, are we going to have to grind new exotic armour pieces to update the stats

[past torrent]

Can someone please tell me how I can defeat the boss in one of the missions in lightfall campaign. He keeps booting me off the map or is too OP

[tepid yew]

D2 used to have no free parts. Companies monetize games in different ways for different reasons. There is still quite a bit to do in D2 for free

[errant gate]

What's the bosses name

[strange rock]

Iron to steel shader doesnt appeor on collections?

[bleak umbra]

hey folks! been on and off of destiny in the last couple years or so, played all through destiny 1 but d2 was never my cup of tea. Anyways, I wanted to give it a shot again. I want to say I played some lightfall stuff most recently? I dont really remember tbh. Regardless was wondering if anyone had a suggestion on how to get back into the game! I do see there is an expansion coming out soon? Maybe should wait to buy anything until then? I am sure this question gets asked a bunch, appreciate any convo!

[azure jackal]

anyone else think timeworn wayfarer is gonna be pretty good next season? its a solar scout rifle that rolls with heal clip and incand i mean that perfectly lines up with the artifact right

[tepid yew]

Exotic armor will be coverted into the new system, but likely you'll need to regrind certain rolls.

[past torrent]

Idk but its in the downfall mission

[errant gate]

If it will be converted, why would I need to regrind

[coarse kernel]

yeahh but lets say i completed all of the free parts of destiny. i wouuld have to spend real money to play more in it. which frankly is terrible to me.

[tepid yew]

Terrible to you, fairly normal in the world lol

Many games cost money, that's just how it is

[coarse kernel]

yeeah because they want to spend money in the game.

[coarse kernel]

not warframe tho

[tepid yew]

Go play warframe then

[high lily]

2 whole campaigns and multiple endgame activities is tbh more than enough to decide if you want to continue playing and spend money to get access to more content

[coarse kernel]

nah i completed all of it bro im end game

[high lily]

d2 is free to try

[errant gate]

Is it in the temple with the big statue in the middle?

[fathom marten]

It should be under the "Activities" section under Season 3

[jaunty whale]

I don't understand why you come to a d2 server just to trash on it lol

[past torrent]

Yea

[tepid yew]

I'd encourage you to take a look at the TWABs explaining how the new stat system works. It's very likely you'll want multiple pieces of the same Exotic with different rolls

[jaunty whale]

Its just different strokes. If you don't think d2 is worth your money then feel free to walk away

[errant gate]

Stay around the edges of the room on the raised platform and snipe the enemies, only go down to insert the ball

Only enemy you have to worry about is the dogs getting up there

[past torrent]

Ohh that’s actually rlly smart

Thanks

[errant gate]

Welcome

[past torrent]

I wanted to try legendary difficulty as a beginner and I messed up

Thanks tho

[bleak umbra]

would it be better to start a fresh acc to get back into the experience/try out the free content, or load up an old account from playstation (i have never played on pc bfore)

[errant gate]

You can do it

[olive gyro]

I’m a returning player anyone mind hoping on call to help me out?

[tepid yew]

Plenty of other F2P games out there like League and Fortnite. If D2's price model is too steep for you, there's no reason to force yourself to play it

[high lily]

tldr: armor stats are being converted but old armor will not get the tiering system

[olive gyro]

Just have a few questions

[errant gate]

Does that include exotic armour

[shell nova]

What’s the best class setup for master vespers

1 well 2 titans

[high lily]

yes i believe

[errant gate]

Thanks alot

[drowsy flare]

Will the new episode/season be playable without purchasing edge of fate?

[high lily]

yes, new seasonal content will be free to play

but there will be no seasonal story

[drowsy flare]

W

[drowsy flare]

L

[high lily]

also you will still have to pay for the premium reward track in the pass

[drowsy flare]

Do we know if it's around the same amount of content as an episode or no?

[high lily]

i dont think theyve shown any seasonal content

but there will still be plenty of "new" stuff to do anyway

the entire portal thing is f2p and have confirmed theres no dlc lockout for stuff like nightfalls

[drowsy flare]

Tyvm for your answers

[azure jackal]

? or nah

[hasty hinge]

i swear vh is giving me more than 1 drop per encounter is it double loot or smth this week?

[tepid yew]

Welcome back! You're jumping in at a bit of an awkward transition at the moment. Some major changes will be happening to the game on July 15th with the new DLC, so many players are either tying up loose ends from this season, prepping for the raid race, or patiently waiting for the new systems. Now is a great time to purchase the existing DLC as it's on a pretty massive sale. I'd recommend the Light and Darkness collection personally, which includes everything except for the upcoming DLC. You can purchase that if you want to get in on the hype, but you'll have so much other content to play from the L&D collection you could put it on the backburner for a bit.

In terms of what to do as a returning player, personally I'd finish playing through any campaigns you've missed and unlock all the different subclass that are available to you.

[tepid yew]

Personally I think Trustee or Vision of Confluence will be better. Farm for one and give it a try when the season launches

[fathom marten]

I do! Probably not completely busted but still a good option

[tepid yew]

I'm not sure if anyone is too keen to hop on a call, but feel free to ask questions here

[hasty hinge]

does the boss encounter of vh drop more loot than other encounters?

[shell nova]

It should be 2 legendary and possibly an exotic

But tbh idk that dungeon has been hella buggy

[olive gyro]

@tepid yew yea it really is an awkward time to start playing again im wondering if we know anything about what meta is going to be so i can at least start doing my builds

[hasty hinge]

so it does drop more then? or is every encounter dropping 2 legendary this week?

[high lily]

yes

[hasty hinge]

jongo what else do i want from rotn apart from the wave

and shotgun

[shell nova]

And exotic should be farmable because like so many people are saying it ain’t

[high lily]

its rng, people also said that last time but there were also some people gettin g it on repeat clears

im not saying it isnt bugged but its more than likely just people having shit rng

[shell nova]

Dam 20 clears without is crazy

[tepid yew]

Are you planning on doing contest mode for the raid?

[olive gyro]

@tepid yew I would also like to know if there are any good weapons at the emissary for hunter that I should grab

[shell nova]

Like exotics?

[hasty hinge]

wait is this the same for every dungeon final boss?

[high lily]

for most yea

[olive gyro]

@tepid yew no I’m probably going to do a lot of catching up on all the quest

[high lily]

sundered does the same

warlords, ghosts, spire and duality also

i think maybe prophecy? but ik pit and shattered dont

[shell nova]

I thought it was only the featured

[hasty hinge]

curious then kinda i kinda doubt kerrev takes twice the time to farm as zoetic but idk

[tepid yew]

None of them are meta defining, but popular options include; Wilderflight, Cold Comfort, No Survivors, and A Sudden Death. A few others like New Pacific Epitaph have a "reason" to grind them but are far less popular.

[tepid yew]

I wouldn't worry too much about figuring out the meta then. Best way to prep is to finish all the campaigns, unlock all your subclasses + upgrades, unlock as many exotics as you can, and hunt down any limited-time legendary weapons

[olive gyro]

@tepid yew yea I have a lot to do lol

So what’s a good exotic I should run for now I guess

[shell nova]

Check my dm

[olive gyro]

@shell nova I haven’t gotten any dm

[shell nova]

Check message request or smth

[tepid yew]

I don't play much Hunter, so I'll let someone else give a better answer. Gifted Conviction has been popular though

[wide ridge]

Just coming back to the game after 2-3 years(Witch Queen). If someone could give me some suggestions on the best Warlock builds to be useful in endgame content that would be great.

[tepid yew]

Depends on the type of endgame you're engaging in

Popular builds right now are Prismatic Getaway / Rimecoat, Prismatic Lightning Surge, Solar Speaker's Sight, Arc Geomags, Sanguine Alchemy (for DPS)

[celest wyvern]

where is the taken altar for nether? i have a lot of the collectible things

[wide ridge]

Probably just general ad clear for nightfalls, and then a solid dps build. I heard there was a support build too?

[glad crag]

Eris's apartment

[celest wyvern]

is it that totem by her coffin? I can't interact with it

im guessing i need to do more of the quest if thats it

[glad crag]

Yeah, its the Taken orb

[celest wyvern]

guess i gotta keep playing to see it

[tepid yew]

Getaway is the easiest Nightfall option, Sanguine is undisputed for DPS, Speaker's Sight is support

[drifting plinth]

for nightfalls id recommend lightning surge if you want pure power

[grand schooner]

Havent played in 3 years, whats a good titan class/build/weapons to work for?

[shell nova]

Storms keep

Fragment

On arc

[sharp hull]

I did all 5 of the intrinsic upgrades but I still don’t have these unlocked ? Am I meant to do something separate for these or am I missing something

[high nacelle]

does anyone else have the bug where the drifter starts randomly talking

[high lily]

did you switch to it, the node on the left side

[high nacelle]

i load up my titan and he just starts yapping

[high lily]

progress the seasonal story

[sharp hull]

Wdym

[sand hearth]

how much dmg boost is radiant`again?

[opal dune]

15, right?

[high lily]

20%

[sharp hull]

It works now. what would you say is the best catalyst to use for barrow ?

[high lily]

One For All

also use alloy mag and fluted barrel

[tepid yew]

It's not a bug

[sudden egret]

10%, oh you mean in pve

[hybrid glacier]

can u get the shiny sudden death from prophecy first? or do the shiny weapons drop from respective encounters

[drifting plinth]

you can get it i think

[sudden egret]

Rotn encounters don’t have loot pools

[hybrid glacier]

i see

[candid willow]

i only need the blight challenge in expert dares for the title, is this possible to do or do i need to wait for t aken to be in rotation

[hard mountain]

which one gets me to next act for echoes?

[half rover]

I am thinking of getting into destiny: Is it a good idea

[candid willow]

yes since all dlcs are dirt cheap rn

[fathom marten]

Did you do Act III?

[grand schooner]

Are there like minor mods you can use for stat boosts in the game now?

[hard mountain]

i honestly dont know where Im at these are the only echoes related quests i have

[turbid talon]

Uh... None? You've got the Epilogue.

[hard mountain]

i looked in the deleted quest thing I see none

[hard mountain]

so I have to do these epiloge quests?

[turbid talon]

You've done all three acts already
These are the leftovers

[half rover]

But would you think that destiny is good for new players?

[turbid talon]

The new player experience is rough. But there's some good game if you can push past that.

[hard mountain]

why tf cant i focus this then

[turbid talon]

Specimen quests provide upgrades.

[half rover]

How bads the grind on a scale on 1-10

[hard mountain]

i have two which one do I do??

i have 5, and 2

[turbid talon]

If it's Act II, probably 5.

[turbid talon]

Grind is the aim of the game. It's a looter shooter mmo.

[grand schooner]

how do i equip minor stat mods?

[hard mountain]

gotcha thanks

[turbid talon]

If you've unlocked your mods via your Guardian Ranks, simply inspect your Legendary armour. Stat mods go in the first slot.

[grand schooner]

well this is what its showing on an armor picker site, idk how to do minor mods

[turbid talon]

By doing what I said.

Minor stat mods are in the same slot as regulars. +5 and +10, respectively.

Don't invest in Int for PvE, by the by.

[grand schooner]

what do u suggest

[turbid talon]

For Peacekeepers? Resilience, Discipline. Mobility is also your worst stat option.

Mobility affects base jump and walk speed, nothing else.

Your sprint speed and glides are unaffected

[grand schooner]

im returning after 3 years and just trying to get some armor going, i forgot pretty much everything

[turbid talon]

Don't stress much. It's being fully reworked in a couple of weeks.

Just get some Resilience to 100 and that'll be fine.

[grizzled zephyr]

what tonic should i use for bitter sweet farm

[fathom marten]

The Bitter/Sweet tonic

[grizzled zephyr]

i dont think i have that unlocked

let me see

[fathom marten]

As far as I know, each Revenant weapon has their own tonic

It's under the Tomb of Elders page

[hard mountain]

u were right i completed five and now i can focus perfect paradox

[rigid hedge]

for outbreak perfected do you need a quest or can you just jump into the mission?

[grizzled zephyr]

found it unlocked a few but im out of mats now

so i need to farm those too

[grand schooner]

can i have lvl 2020 gear not equipped in my inv and still get 2020 drops?

[tulip oar]

Yes. Doesn't even need to be in your inventory

Just can't dismantle it

[grand schooner]

can someone send me a good DIM loadout titan build for PVE?

https://dim.gg/xmuicli/Equipped this is what i currently have

[drifting plinth]

replace touch of thunder with storms keep

replace your ar with le monarque

replace the smg with a good special

[celest island]

how will the archetypes work? Is it possible to get like 200 super and 200 weapon stat?

like you're only allowed to get certain stats or something?

you can't just get whatever u want?

and like is it required to pick an archetype or can you have randomly rolled stats like currently if u didn't have a ghost mod

[river parcel]

does the verity buff turret dmg too?

the bleak wacther turret i mean

[vale meadow]

likely

i can check

[trail pendant]

Why can't I find mayhem in the game type for a private match?

[fathom marten]

Archetype means that the item will have two guaranteed stat spikes depending on the archetype with a third random one in the other six stats. It is currently not possible to get two 200s given the current permutations of Archetypes.

[trail pendant]

nvm

[fathom marten]

ip grabber but this will let you input a desired number of a stat and tell you if that is possible with the Archetypes available: https://armor3point0.streamlit.app/

[vale meadow]

yes

[river parcel]

is it better to do the verity helm itslef or do inmost and verity u think?

[grand schooner]

what do you suggest? and how can i unlock the storms keep?

[vale meadow]

wouldnt be running verity with bleak watcher

[fathom marten]

You can get a stat distribution of 200, 150, 100, 25, 25, and 0 as the most possible in two stats.

[river parcel]

dang alrighty thx

[high lily]

No, bleak watcher also doesn't kill

[river parcel]

im just looking for something to temporarily use til i get rime coat

[little pewter]

rime coat is not liked because it increases the damage of bleak watcher

[rigid hedge]

does xur have the outbreak perfected catalyst?

[little pewter]

id advise against half assing builds, unless youre just going for funsies and not caring about viability

[solar jasper]

Exotic Catalysts

Catalysts are unique permanent upgrades for specific exotic weapons. Depending on when the catalyst was introduced, it may be as minor as a stat boost or as meaningful as a brand new feature of the weapon. Please note that acquiring catalysts is often very RNG-dependent or attached to an otherwise very grindy process.

Click here for a spreadsheet with a list of all exotic weapons, whether they have a catalyst, and how to get it if they do.

[wheat cairn]

So, haven't really bothered with memento's much, how many variations are there?

[glad crag]

10 i think

[wheat cairn]

That's

More than I expected

[glad crag]

Every ritual activity, VoG, SE, Iron Banner, Solstice, Halloween, Christmas

and Garden of Salvation too I think

[wheat cairn]

Is there a way to like preview the shaders they give you?

[fathom marten]

Not before you get them I don't think.

Here's a list of all of them

https://d2.destinygamewiki.com/wiki/Mementos

[wheat cairn]

Ah, thank you

[high lily]

Doesn't exist anymore, outbreak became craftable

[glad crag]

Yeah, craft or enhance a weapon, and itll show every memento in the shader tab

[wheat cairn]

Ok, thank you

[brittle echo]

Hi , is it possible for amor to drop on rite of the nine dungeons? (ive never done some of these)

[sudden egret]

Eternity or above on full runs

Gives one piece

[kindred zodiac]

What is the best way to farm exotic armor for a warlock that has high stats, or just high stat armor in general, all while solo.

[tawdry lichen]

I got two questions one wsp with that cowboy hat and two is neomuna the only place where I can farm strand

[azure prism]

How are master raids for high stat armour? Like do they frequently drop high stat armour?

[sudden egret]

Focus at rahool and put on a stat mode on your ghost is about all you can do

[kindred zodiac]

Well what about obtaining the armor though?

[sudden egret]

Don’t understand you first question but second one yes.

[kindred zodiac]

or the engrams for the armor

[sudden egret]

Check pins for getting new exotic armor

[tawdry lichen]

@sudden egret I see people with a cowboy hat

How do I aquire it

[sudden egret]

Armor from spire of the watcher dungeon

[tawdry lichen]

Oooo ok thank you

[lethal plinth]

Not good

[paper wolf]

“farm” “exotic armor” “solo” you say? I have just the thing

Master lost sectors

[kindred zodiac]

Oh god... the horrors...

[paper wolf]

or expert whatever it’s called now

[paper wolf]

piece of cake in honesty, you got this

[kindred zodiac]

I'll try 🫡

[sick ridge]

Do your current Exotic Engrams carry over to the next expansion / season

[grand schooner]

is it worth playing through lightfall then final shape chronologically? or just final shape for prismatic?

havent played since witch queen

[severe cosmos]

if the lore matters to you, then sure, but everything about the final shape is better than lightfall so if you're just out for a good experience, definitely final shape

[naive ocean]

what is happening to artiface armour in eof?

[sudden egret]

Nothing

[grand schooner]

how do i unlock this?

[tulip oar]

Existing artifice armor is unchanged, it just doesn't exist in the new armor system.

[tulip oar]

Ikora

[dark elk]

didnt know the psychocomp gl could hold 3 rounds in one mag dont know how i did it anyone know how to do it?

[high lily]

Runneth Over and Ambitious Assassin

[naive ocean]

so are you still gonna be able to slot in your +3?

[high lily]

or just Ambitious itself if you get enough kills

[sudden egret]

Check your perks

[kindred zodiac]

How do I choose to do that, I thought there would be a flag after you've done it once before but there isn't one that I can see at the entrance.

[tulip oar]

Except for on exotic class items (since they're getting converted), yes.

[dark elk]

i thought ambitious would only give me 1 thats cool

[tulip oar]

Are you sure you're at the correct sector?

[paper wolf]

there’s only one (two?) lost sectors that can be done on expert at a time, rotating daily. if that’s the problem

[dark elk]

so i could get more than 3

[kindred zodiac]

Oh

[dark elk]

alright

[sudden egret]

It can give 2 if you get enough kills before reloading

[kindred zodiac]

I didn't know that

Where do I check to see what ones are in rotation?

[glad viper]

Ty got my eternal title so I’m happy

[primal snow]

slayers fang -- worth it to even do the quests for pve?

like realistically do people even use it

[turbid talon]

Not really. Coming out after Choir of One gave it mega competition.

[primal snow]

thats what i assumed

thanks 😸

[grand schooner]

how do i get the lord of wolves?

[tulip oar]

Assuming you own Forsaken Pack, open exotic engrams

[bleak umbra]

just logged onto this game for the first time in awhile, should I just do all of the milestones? im like 1900 light rn lol

[grand schooner]

its just a random from exotic engrams?

[tulip oar]

Yep, it's a world drop. Exotic engrams are guarnateed to give unacquired exotics before giving dupes, though.

[grand schooner]

is there a way to farm those?

[frosty depot]

Can sudden death drop from 1st encounter in Prophecy RotN?

[steel sundial]

it can drop from any encounter

[frosty depot]

Ah okay cool

[steel sundial]

make sure to attune to it

[hard mountain]

Is it possible to get all the barrow dyad catalysts in a few hours

[shell nova]

whats the glacier quake input order for servitor boss

[steel sundial]

not really

[steel sundial]

what facets

[steel sundial]

[wide ridge]

What does this do exactly and is it worth it? Just came back after 3 years

[sudden egret]

Limit break!

[steel sundial]

allows you to enhance your weapon's perks

and level it up

[wide ridge]

What perks exactly? The blue ones above that it upgrades?

[sudden egret]

The 3rd and 4th ones

[steel sundial]

the 3rd and 4th ones

[wide ridge]

It says it replaces the masterwork? Is that worth it?

[hard mountain]

Is it rlly that grindy?

[boreal patio]

its the same thing

same plus 10 stats

[sudden egret]

That’s a bad description, you still get the master work stat bump

You just don’t get a yellow boarder around the weapon till it’s fully enhanced

[boreal patio]

level 20 and both perks enhanced right?

then youll also get another +2? bonus to other stats?

[wide ridge]

Is it worth to upgrade the weapon level over time, or just spend enhancements?

[sudden egret]

Depends on the perks it came with

[boreal patio]

just enough to enhance both perks imo if u plan on using it

should be like lvl 14

[sudden egret]

If it’s a good roll and a weapon you like, spend to upgrade it

[boreal patio]

weapons levels come easy over time

[grizzled zephyr]

what do yall use to farm reagents the quickest way

[sudden egret]

Depends which ones you need

Some have specific sources

[grizzled zephyr]

all of them

[sudden egret]

Onslaught and contest elders drop unique ones so you’ll have to do those regardless

[grizzled zephyr]

sheesh

maybe i can get the god roll i need without even having to focus it

if im lucky

[strong night]

best way to farm engrams to lvl rahool

[shadow magnet]

did you stop during witch queen or before then

[tulip oar]

Expert Lost Sectors

[wide ridge]

Right after witch queen I stopped

[shadow magnet]

you know how when you craft weapons and level them up you can level them up more to unlock better versions of the perks

it’s just that except on random rolls

[grand schooner]

whats the meta titan build for pve?

[steel sundial]

consecration on prismatic or arc with storms keep

banner of war is also pretty decent

[drowsy oyster]

I still have all 15 Curios of the Nine. No point saving those right? Turn them all in for the Nonary Manifolds?

[steel sundial]

their only purpose is to be turned into manifolds, yes

[hard mountain]

what should I do to level up my battlepass fast i wanna get the navigators crown im rank 162

[steel sundial]

seasonal challenges with the xp ghost mod on

and bounties where and when you can

[coral folio]

That's their only use, yeah

And they don't give much

[steel sundial]

150 per curio or something

or 50

idk

[coral folio]

I got like 280 for 7 Curios

[drowsy oyster]

All 15 netted me 600.

[fathom marten]

So 40 per

[hard mountain]

damn

i rlly was hoping there was another way

[grand schooner]

Can someone send me a meta titan pve build to follow? i am lost

[nocturne isle]

to get my 1st time of the week dungeon clear do I need to do a fresh run or does doing a final boss checkpoint work as well?

[sudden egret]

Depends on the dungeon and what reward you are trying to get

[nocturne isle]

trying to get the icebreaker from vh

[sudden egret]

Boss encounter works assuming the drop isn’t bugged

[steel sundial]

check the builds i put in #1390087138439204965

[sudden egret]

Some people have been asking if ice breaker is really farmable here

[nocturne isle]

oh that's regarding repeat farming, 1st time on each character drop rates should be unaffected

[sudden egret]

Yeah

[balmy shale]

am I able to get target locked on barrow dyad without getting the other catalyst or do I have to unlock the catalysts in order to get target locked

[steel sundial]

you do not need the other catalysts, they are all separate quests

one for all is the better catalyst though

[balmy shale]

I got the quest for... one of the other catalysts and I'm sure I got the 3 knife shards thing but I can't get into the room for target locked, do I have to finish the quest I'm currently on or can I have multiple of the catalyst quests

@steel sundial

[steel sundial]

you can have multiple

the target lock portal is notoriously finnicky

what level are both of your shaping slabs

[balmy shale]

yeah it says I'm unworthy or something

both 12

[steel sundial]

get to 15 on both

and try doing the other catalysts as well

[balmy shale]

....that's a lot of nether runs

fml

[steel sundial]

do the story on other characters

it gives a lot of xo

xp

plus court of blades is also way faster than nether and gives the same amount of xp

[balmy shale]

have you gotten all the catalysts on your barrow?

[steel sundial]

yep

got it done a few days after it all became available

[balmy shale]

a video said that someone that's completed everything can open the portal to the chest room for target locked, do you think you can help me?

[steel sundial]

i could but i am not on rn

dm me sometime on friday and i might be able to help you oht

[stoic basalt]

Do the helium reactor robes ever come to eververse store? 🥺

[shadow venture]

Doubt it

[steel sundial]

if you meant bright dust, probably not

[stoic basalt]

IM BLIND. THANK YOU SO MUCH 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

[timber frost]

Random question but are Dunemarchers going to be better with the new changes to the armor system?

[sudden egret]

how do you reason?

[timber frost]

I know the new armor changes do things like improve grenade damage with certain stats, so I'm just curious if any of that will help Dune

[sudden egret]

the arc chain thing it does? it's just considered ability damage

[timber frost]

So any melee damage buff won't apply to the arc lightning, right?

[sudden egret]

right

it's not the melee doing the damage

[timber frost]

That sucks lol

Ty though

[sudden egret]

it's never been of much use outside of pvp

[severe cosmos]

how long has this been in the shop

[timber frost]

Bummer. It's my favorite exotic and I've used it for years. Wish it was better overall lol

[glad crag]

Since the Edge reveal

[sudden egret]

it was fun when it used to work with throwing hammer, maybe they will bring that back

[timber frost]

I'd like it if Dunemarchers applied Jolt or something

[severe cosmos]

weird, swear ive never seen it till now lol

[timber frost]

Hell give me Bolt stacks for everyone hit by the chain lightning

[glad crag]

I get it. Theres plenty of times I swear they just randomly add new loot to eververse

[hoary moth]

X · Jul 1, 2025, 10:11 PM

[hoary moth]

Is this gonna run my pockets again

[timber frost]

That is a loaded question. There's been some great expansions but the next one looks underwhelming imo

[hoary moth]

I have everything up to final shape

[fathom marten]

Base is $40

[timber frost]

Then you've played the best of D2 for a while lol

[hoary moth]

Feel like I'm always behind

[fathom marten]

The next two together is like $80

[broken forge]

its a new expansion so naturally, however, seasonal content is moving to become free to play now and theres a lot of changes coming that also encompass free to play

[hoary moth]

So basically another yearly dlc

[hoary moth]

Is it free bc?

[timber frost]

I wouldn't actually spend money on Edge of Fate. The best parts of it are free changes to UI and loot

[fathom marten]

Even base Final Shape is $10 over that but yeah, about the average

[timber frost]

Imo lol

[broken forge]

not super sure why bungie made seasons free, but hey, free content for all is a good thing so you wont hear me complaining

[hoary moth]

The pass is free?

[fathom marten]

No

That is still paid

[hoary moth]

Didn't they do that before tho

[fathom marten]

But it is no longer tied to the season

[hoary moth]

Oh

[tepid yew]

Seasonal activity is free, pass is free, bonus cosmetic reward track costs money

[fathom marten]

Or, okay, half of the pass is free like most other games and the paid part gets you the other half

[hoary moth]

Are they gonna do this for the next dlc drop like the other 40 dollar one

[timber frost]

It's like every other "Battle Pass". Some of it is free but anything good costs a minimum of 10 bucks

[tepid yew]

They supposedly going to fo it forever going forward until they change their mind

[fathom marten]

What do you mean by "this"? The free seasons? Yeah, they're all free going forward.

[shy raven]

I forgot to play in june lol
are the pride shaders ever coming back

[hoary moth]

I mean like when this dlc drops and it goes back to normal, are they going to do the free stuff before the next dlc drops

[tepid yew]

The free one is a code you can redeem any time. The others are in eververse for silver

[hoary moth]

If that makes sense

[fathom marten]

You mean Rite of the Nine?

[tepid yew]

Like give away old expansions? Maybe?

[hoary moth]

Maybe, whatever is after this dlc coming out

[timber frost]

Just wait until they sell them for BrightDust

Guarantee they will

[fathom marten]

Renegades in December is the next expansion, Ash & Iron in September is the next major update.

Ash & Iron is free

[hoary moth]

BC they make stuff free before every dlc but since they are changing how dlc are working and sending out two in a year , are they going to make stuff free twice

[tepid yew]

Considering the money goes to a charity, I don't think so

[timber frost]

I wouldn't put it past them at this point lol

[tepid yew]

Why? One thing they've been very consistent with is charity work

[timber frost]

They've put "exclusive" shaders that were time limited up for BD multiple times now

[fathom marten]

Bungie takes their charities incredibly seriously

[timber frost]

Angel's Gleam is a recent example

[tepid yew]

Yeah, that's a normal thing they do. Sell the pack for a while, then when it leaves the sale page it goes into the BD rotation

[timber frost]

It used to not be that way though which is why I'm skeptical

[fathom marten]

Angel's Gleam is not charity related

[timber frost]

You can't trust these guys at this point. But I'm also very jaded by Bungie these days

So just ignore me lol

[fathom marten]

I'm a little confused on what you mean by "make stuff free". Can you please elaborate further?

[hoary moth]

Like the stuff they made free now

[fathom marten]

What stuff

[hoary moth]

I heard stuff was becoming free for a bit BC of the new expansion

I'm not sure tho

I'm just trying to understand from what I'm reading

[fathom marten]

For PS+ holders, Final Shape [and/]or the Legacy collection is free [depending on the pass]. On Steam, the Steam Summer Sale very nearly makes a lot of things free. There was a sale on the Epic Games store but I don't know if that ended. I've heard no mention of any kind of sale on Xbox.

There's the current Rite of the Nine activity that gives everyone access to 3 dungeons, normally only 1 of which is free, alongside a bunch of reprised weapons from them. Additionally, there are free Exotics offered, though none that are not already able to be obtained for free anyway, through Rite of the Nine. Furthermore, there are the recent Nonary Engrams that allow players to get previously unobtainable cosmetic items for free.

Those are the only free things I can think of that are currently happening.

[hoary moth]

Thanks

Are the new dlc supposed to be good

[fathom marten]

Final Shape? Fantastic. Edge of Fate, the upcoming one? I don't know because it's not out yet but I'm very excited for it personally.

[hoary moth]

Do you think it would go on sale later on the new one coming out ?

[tawdry lichen]

What a list of exotics thats good for damage phases

[deep fiber]

Nighthawk / ses for hunter, sanguine alch for lock and curiass for titan

[drowsy oyster]

For the seasonal challenge for the Pale Heart. Patrols and Public Events, does the game count anything else in the pale heart for those objectives? Or do I just have to grind lost sectors?

[wide ridge]

Why cant I run this dungeon? It says rise quest progress required but the next quest says to the dungeon?

[trail pendant]

Did you buy the dungeon key?

[wide ridge]

not the key specifically, but the lightfall annual pass

[broken forge]

if this is for rite of the nine, youre looking at the wrong node, its the one in eternity

[trail pendant]

I don't think that has it

check what it includes if u still can

[unborn cloak]

It does not

The dungeon keys are only sold separately for bright dust

[trail pendant]

Totally

[wide ridge]

Is that even worth it? For the silver?

[trail pendant]

if u want to make a strand titan build with the exotic

[fathom marten]

The Final Shape? On pretty much every platform except Xbox it sounds like it is on sale. I haven't played Xbox since Destiny 1 so I'm not in that space a lot to know if there is a sale happening or not. If you mean Edge of Fate, also yes but it'll take a while since it is the newest one. I imagine maybe some time around December when the one after Edge of Fate, Renegades, is released Edge of Fate will go on sale but I have no clue otherwise.

[unborn cloak]

"Worth" is something only you can apply tbh

[copper apex]

So eof is still in the same timeline?

[fathom marten]

Always was going to be

[grand schooner]

how do i get the quest to start this?

[copper apex]

Idk why I keep thinking we goine back in time

[mortal plinth]

So is ice breaker still not farmable then?

[fathom marten]

There might be other time shenanigans that happen because The Nine and the fact that we're going near a singularity, but no alternate timelines as far as I am aware

[copper apex]

Cool ty ty

[fathom marten]

Talk to Xur to grab the quest

He should be right next to you in that space

[grand schooner]

i literally am talking to him

[fathom marten]

Oh

Uh

Check your Quests tab then for the Quest

[grand schooner]

not there

[fathom marten]

Last place to look then is the Quest Archive Kiosk in the Tower. It's by the Postmaster and is tucked into a corner near the stairs

It should be in a section labeled "The Past" with an icon of an hourglass.

[novel karma]

is there a way to look up certin guns with perks? Im trying to see if a void hand cannon with firefly exists. Ive got a solar one which is perfect for solar hunter but seeing if i can get a void one

[fathom marten]

d2foundry.gg

[unborn cloak]

By all means, it should be, and it has been for a good time now

[novel karma]

perfect thank you

[fathom marten]

And to peemptively answer your question: no

[unborn cloak]

I think Firefly is only on solar and kinetic weapons?

[novel karma]

yea was looking sadly only thing similar is a raid scout rifle

also my bad got mixed up, was looking for dragon fly perk

ive got a outlaw dragonfly hand cannon which i love

[fathom marten]

There are a couple void handcannons with dragonfly

Maahes HC4, Word of Crota, and Bottom Dollar. I don't think Thin Line is obtainable anymore

[novel karma]

havnt played since 2023 so got some grinding to do

[fathom marten]

Bottom Dollar can roll with Outlaw and Dragonfly. It's from Gambit

[novel karma]

time to grind gambit

[fathom marten]

Good luck soldier o7

[unborn cloak]

If you're gonna do gambit maybe pick up the quest for Malfeasance and maybe you'll get some progress done

[jaunty whale]

Usually only kinetic, but there are some exceptions e.g. corrective measure

Solar tend to get dragonfly or incan instead

[high lily]

drops on Unworthy which is an arc weapon

[mortal plinth]

Do yoy know any ppl that did get it on a non first try

So far everyone ive been asking about it got it on their first try on a class that week

[glass lodge]

question: what are the main PvP Frames and what are the main PvE frames on weapons
or does it depend on the weapon type

[shut wraith]

I'm reset 6 in vanguard, so why the fuck am I still seeing 1 perk rolls consistently??

[unborn cloak]

It's really hard to have a real metric bc its been out for ages and its not like you would really farm for it again, but by all means Bungie said they fixed it, and we had some reports of people getting it after repeated clears

[unborn cloak]

It's a chance, not guaranteed

[severe cosmos]

i was playing with someone that got it after a few matches of farming final encounter

[unborn cloak]

Frames don't make a weapon good, there's a lot more going on

Specially for PvE

[shut wraith]

That actually so ass holy moly

[glass lodge]

uuugh
why does looking for the weapons I want and what I want on them gotta be so hard

[unborn cloak]

Well, what are you tryna achieve?

[mortal plinth]

This week?

[unborn cloak]

Its easier to go "i want a weapon that does x in y slot"

Ultimately it also comes down to feel

[severe cosmos]

yep today

[unborn cloak]

First thing I did when I came back was get a Fatebringer

Then I refarmed it again

I will not take it off again until they put out a tier 5 fatebringer then i'll go get that one

[mortal plinth]

Alr guess ill keep on farming it

[unborn cloak]

So just trying weapons out until you love one works

[glass lodge]

well ideally (and I know this isn't meta good or whatever but I like being flexible and having anything for anything, + I like having a giant vault filled with individual weapons I like)

1. I want weapons I like the look of
2. I want one of each weapon type, frame, and subclass so I can have diversity and be ready for surges and stuff

[unborn cloak]

For #2, I strongly do not recommend this except for maybe having different DPS heavies for different elements

You simply don't need that

[high lily]

Dps heavies is really all you need for that yea

[shell nova]

my rng is just terrible then

[unborn cloak]

i did 67 runs for vex mythoclast

you must simply persevere

[unborn river]

reminds me of the time i got my mythoclast. I did oracles solo to speed it up. did it for also around 70 runs in a row. i get mythoclast the first run on a new character. (this was during that one week where drop rates were bugged and you could get it on xth clears, not the first of a character

[azure jackal]

do you get adept prophecy weapons from doing the ultimatum version?

[high lily]

yea

[livid thunder]

Tips for solo SD? I know about the door spot.

[high lily]

but its better to just farm Eternity, adepts dont have an advantage over regular

[deep fiber]

i dont like the door spot for solo

dps on the platform that has the back left and right symbol imo

worship and kill i think

[open steeple]

can someone please help me get the mission start for the target lock on for the barrow dyad i have all the coalscence and it still wont let me start it im so confused

[deep fiber]

if i remember that im goated

[open steeple]

idk where elkse to ask

[azure jackal]

ah ok so just getting the normal versions of the weapons are worth it?

also theyre not craftable are they just enhanceable?

[vague garden]

How do you get Platinum in Breach Executable?

[high lily]

correct

[azure jackal]

ok ive seen people talk about sudden death but are any of the weapons really worth getting for pve?

ive seen relentless be good in pvp but thats it really

[sacred trail]

Hi I recently picked up the game have little to nothing completed where should I start?

[deep fiber]

cold comfort is okay, sudden death is unique

no survivors is probably worth getting because most likely it will be buffed soon

[azure jackal]

is that archtype getting buffed

[deep fiber]

a guess but a safe one

they have been weak for a while

[cedar hinge]

where do i get these? do i need to wait until July 15 before i can get them? is it an automatic unlock or do i need to progress missions or season pass?

[azure jackal]

also sorry this is also a random question but at the end of a raid you can get a red border of a weapon for spoils right

if its a featured raid can you do that repeatedly

[fathom marten]

You will need to wait for the ones circled. The two in the bottom corner will not arrive until Renegades launches in December.

[azure jackal]

i remember maybe a year or two ago when last wish was the featured raid people were doing a farm using the kalli challenge, is there anything like that with kings fall?

[high lily]

no

last wish is so old that every weapon drops from every encounter

[sudden egret]

Nope, gotta do the encounters normal

[azure jackal]

so "farming" the raid people jus be doing it over and over again to get red borders n stuff huh

is there any faster way to get red borders for the weapons i want

[sudden egret]

Or the encounters that drop the weapon you want to farm

[azure jackal]

but i gotta keep getting the checkpoint right?

[sudden egret]

Save it on an alt char

[azure jackal]

wait how would that work

[sudden egret]

Start the encounter with that char. Wipe and that char will have the checkpoint

Swap back to another, clear and get loot.

Load the checkpoint with the alt, repeat

[drifting plinth]

(you dont have to repeat the wipe)

[wanton loom]

That’s a fire pfp

[tawdry lichen]

Is this a good royal rntry

[novel karma]

how do i get a decent orpheus rig? Ive got one at 48 stats and the other i cant even put mods on it

[azure jackal]

#💎shard-it-keep-it

[azure jackal]

and no it isnt

[jaunty whale]

Get some exotic engrams and focus them at rahool. Or wait for the new dlc in 2 weeks

[ember cloud]

whats like the best subclass for a hunter in pvp? specifically crucible matches and maybe gambit( i hate it but i want malfeasance)

[marsh herald]

So I've just done a lost sector on master, got the double perk for one of the columns for a world drop. Do i have to keep doing master to get the double perk or can i do legend now to make runs a little faster? I didn't even know world drops could have double perks so this is new to me

[trail pendant]

Why does my super take like 30 seconds to refresh with 50x regen and mayhem?

[nocturne isle]

Has anyone gotten icebreaker not on their first weekly runs? Trying to confirm if it’s still bugged or not

[livid thunder]

So for solo SD, im using Solar w/sof. What heavy should I be using? Im using DB rn with mountaintop, im doing 1.8m rn. I know its bad damage.

Finality auger doesn't seem better either, but i dont have the catalyst so

[spare tusk]

What class are you?

[trail pendant]

me cuz its true featured rn

[livid thunder]

Warlock

Speaker Sight

[spare tusk]

Queenbreaker maybe?

Before Particle Decon goes away

[livid thunder]

Nah, the boss moves too much and im also just generally unconfident with my usage of it

[spare tusk]

Microcosm might be an alternative then

[livid thunder]

Maybe...

Im gonna try finality auger and Perfect Paradox, see how that goes

[spare tusk]

Theres some neat trace related perks in the artifact and you dont have as much of a hit or miss issue with that

[nocturne isle]

Sweet, a lot of people have been saying the drop rate was bugged to not work past the regular 1st run drop chance on featured weeks so I’ve been looking for hard evidence for otherwise

Back to vespers host farming then

[livid thunder]

The issue isn't survival, its doing the damage phase like 8 fucking times

[spare tusk]

Well youre doing solo SD

This stuff does take a while

[livid thunder]

Yeah but it also takes eons to do damage phase

[spare tusk]

Yup

[livid thunder]

Thats my main issue is its gonna take like

An hour

[spare tusk]

Not exactly uncommon with solo SD runs

[livid thunder]

Of ZERO deaths

Just fucking misery

[spare tusk]

Unless youre willing to move out of your comfort zone dps wise it might just take a good while

[livid thunder]

Only reason im even doing this shit is GR

Genuinely tempted to jsut wait till the next dungeon i do NOT wanna do this shit

@spare tusk Do you suggest any quickswap exotics? I'll be using SOF, obsolete i won't need speakers

[spare tusk]

Im not really well versed on the Warlock meta these days specially on Solar

If theres a good exotic for SOF you could consider quick swapping to that for DPS

[trail pendant]

Hezen Ice b damage special?

[naive silo]

what does the purple gunsmith engramt?

i think i misspelled idk

[livid thunder]

SOF is just to keep me alive really, and it makes Perfect Paradox so free extra damage

[spare tusk]

Gunsmith Engrams can be decoded at Banshee (aka the Gunsmith) on the tower

[hard mountain]

whats the best catalyst for choir

[spare tusk]

Destab probably

[hard mountain]

thought so

[naive silo]

what does glimmer do btw cuz i still havent figured that out

[spare tusk]

Its a general currency

Its used in a shit load of processes

Upgrading weapons, buying guns, masterworking armor etc etc

[naive silo]

ah alr

thx

[spare tusk]

No worries

If you want more info on currencies you can also check #1210457910824411136

[raw hill]

how to do bridge encounter crota with < 6 people ?

[naive silo]

how can you acces eternity>

[spare tusk]

Open your director

In the right ish side

[naive silo]

yh but like how do you unlock it? is it just after a series of different story missions?

[spare tusk]

It should be available right away

You shoule be able to just click and launch it

I presume you want to head there to pick up the 2020 gear theyre giving out

[naive silo]

it isnt i might still be doing the tutorial. is the tutorial also after youve gone to the tower and talked to everyone?

[spare tusk]

Thats possible yeah, progress the new light questline a bit further

[naive silo]

k

idk how to do the the disgraced thing cuz i have to do it with two others but there seems that no one does that so idk how to complete it

[spare tusk]

The Disgraced is a so called 'Strike' basically just a typical mission

If you select it on the Cosmodrome map the game will automatically look for others

Map selected strikes have a different matchmaking pool so there is a chance it might take a sec to find other fellas

[unborn river]

might be mistaking but there should be matchmaking. also i belive it matches you with others that do the mission through the random mission playlist

[spare tusk]

The latter is false
There is a different pool for Vanguard Ops and Map selected strikes

While Vanguard Ops also have those strikes they have the modifiers and stuff so its effectively a different mission

[naive silo]

yh i got into a pool

or like the other 2 joined

[spare tusk]

Have fun shooting your gun then

[naive silo]

ty

[unborn river]

good to know. i wasnt sure so thanks for the clarification

[spare tusk]

No worries

[mortal cloud]

guys, these solo ROTN dungeons.....do I need to do solo?

I mean for title

[sudden egret]

No

You can find a team for the triumphs

[cobalt trout]

Is it possible to do the mission Excision solo?

[sudden egret]

Possible yes, but it won’t load you in solo

[cobalt trout]

Got it

I was just wondering cause I just got back into the game and was going through the final shape story

I’ll probably have to lfg it or wait for hours lol

[sudden egret]

Yeah, not many playing it right now

[naive silo]

what mods do i gotta do to the ghost for the popup thing to dissapear?

[spare tusk]

Right click your ghost

It has mod slots too

Just throw a bunch in it should work

[naive silo]

thx it went away

[unborn river]

i have a question about prismatic hunter. Does threaded specter and ascension proc from the same dodge activation?

[turbid sorrel]

It will in EoF pre sure

If u mean gamblers

[unborn river]

i mean does using ascension also create the threaded specter?

[mortal cloud]

thank you

[high lily]

yes

[novel karma]

how do "font of" mods work? Says if i have a stack it gives me 30 mobility. So should my base mobility stat be at 70 to maximise usage?

[jaunty whale]

They do work like that however mod slots are too valuable to be wasted on just increasing stats

[azure wasp]

Hey guys, it seems that when I shoot at an unstoppable champion with exotic LFR/FR he's not stunned, is it normal?

[turbid sorrel]

Hold down ads

Your gun will shine and you’ll get a notice on your screen ‘unstoppable shot’

[jaunty whale]

What exotic are you using

[high lily]

is this with Queenbreaker

[azure wasp]

yessir, queenbraker and delicate tomb

[high lily]

delicate tomb stuns overloads intrinsically
queenbreaker already stuns unstops with the single shot mode

[jaunty whale]

Queenbreaker already stuns unstoppable with its single fire mode

Delicate tomb jolts when charged and that stuns overloads.

[azure wasp]

okok I lost this information, tnx guys

[zealous zealot]

On the last part for choir of one catalyst an hour in. I can not finish it because there are no orbs left to shoot. Is this a known bug? super frustrating as it has taken me hours to get here

[jaunty whale]

Exotics with intrinsic champ stunning properties cant take another

[naive silo]

why cant i kill the thing where you have to transcend?

cuz i cant transcend to damage him

[spare tusk]

You need to stand in the glowing spot

That charges your transcendence meter

[naive silo]

ooh

[spare tusk]

Activate it, and any damage you deal will break transcendence shields

If you dont yet have the transcendence subclass you need to stand in the spot when you activate it cause itll go away when you walk out of it

Like the meter resets

[tepid yew]

If you're positive you didn't miss one, you could always reset and go straight to that portal. Shouldn't take more than 15 min to get back

[bold thunder]

Hello, does anyone know whats the secret triumph for the Rite of the Nine (Eternal) title / seal?

[tepid yew]

We're not sure yet, might come out next week

[bold thunder]

ahh gotcha tysm for the info!

[naive silo]

where can i find ikora rey in the tower?

nvm found he

r

[exotic fjord]

So I’m pretty sure I haven’t got good armour so what number should I look out for to know? I should level up that certain armour?

[turbid talon]

Armour is being reworked in the expansion in a couple of weeks, so don't worry about it.

Current armour will most likely be left by the wayside, and the entire stat system is being replaced.

If you can get your Resilience to 100, that will be fine for the meantime.

[exotic fjord]

Okay, so I don’t really need to worry about it because they’re reworking everything to do with stat

[turbid talon]

Correct

[exotic fjord]

Does anyone know would like the strand throwing knife thing for the hunter if there’s an audio queue to where I need to catch it or do I have to look at the bottom left?

[turbid talon]

There is an audio queue, you can also see it, and I believe the bottom left icon also flashes. The audio queue is probably most reliable.

[exotic fjord]

Yeah, I just wanted to make sure the fact that I could be in the middle of a fight and I want my cool down to be faster or done immediately and I don’t feel like looking to the bottom left every time I throw it so I probably will end up relying on the audio queue

[zealous zealot]

Yeah I managed to get it open and claim the last chest, just for banshee quest progress to remain stuck on not having opened the first chest yet.

[daring coral]

how do some people write music notes in d2 chat

[spare tusk]

Copy paste

[high lily]

is that the profanity filter

[broken forge]

the profanity filter is just asterisks

[turbid sorrel]

aztecross

[mortal plinth]

Did anyone get ice breaker dropped from farming? ( not first time on a class after weekly reset)

[exotic fjord]

Is there any like fragments that like reduce cool down for the swing with the Hunter class?

[spare tusk]

Swing?

Like the grapple?

[high lily]

people have yes

[broken forge]

thread of generation

[exotic fjord]

Yeah

[turbid talon]

It counts as a Grenade. Look for things that affect Grenade recharge.

[broken forge]

thread of generation is the main thing that comes to mind

[turbid sorrel]

generation is a must have on strand

in general

[exotic fjord]

Okay, I’ll grab that one any others

[turbid sorrel]

um yea

the woven one

forgor the name

warding

[exotic fjord]

Warding is that its name?

[turbid sorrel]

thread of warding

[exotic fjord]

K thx

[mortal plinth]

i want to farm it so badly but if my luck is as shit as with buried i will only be able to tell if its bugged or not after 80 runs

[tacit gyro]

When do we start getting a nonary engram daily for free?

[high lily]

starts next weekly reset

[tacit gyro]

Ok thanks 👍

[still token]

how rare is icebreaker? 39 clears no drop for no one

[turbid talon]

We don't know drop rates. Welcome to Destiny.

[still token]

but come on 39 no drop for no one? xd thats not high i can tell

[twin peak]

sounds like rookie numbers

[severe cosmos]

whats this emmote

[hasty hinge]

anyway to make it so engrams you dont pickup dont go to post?

[turbid talon]

No.

[crimson cradle]

Hi everyone.
I'm playing on PlayStation 5.
I have a problem — I can't reach Rank 5. The last task is to complete 2 Vanguard or Crucible Pathfinder objectives. But on PS5, there is no Pathfinder.
I've already spoken to the Crucible handler. The Pathfinder menu that exists on the PC version in the bottom left is missing for me.
Has anyone faced this issue? How can it be solved?

[turbid talon]

Did you try what I suggested?

[wanton loom]

Sitting next to a cat and petting it

[brittle wing]

its a charity one

not sure if its still in the eververse

but that was the only way to get it iirc

[crimson cradle]

No, I'll try. Thank you.

[hasty hinge]

are armor stat rolls from goa master special in some way?

[brittle wing]

no

[hasty hinge]

so it doesnt spike harder or anything coz ive heard ppl say that is that just cap?

[brittle wing]

no source of armor has intrinsically better stats its usually just anecdotal evidence iirc

[turbid talon]

Well no that's not true
There are definitive high stat armour sources

World Drops and Ritual Armour focuses drop in the low 50s, but Dungeons, Raids, Seasonal/Episodic focusing sources are High Stat, dropping consistently in the high 50s at a minimum

[hasty hinge]

right but goa master rolls arent any better than echo focusing right?

[turbid talon]

Not particularly, no. But being on Master, you can get Artifice drops for the free +3 stat mod slot.

[tame hornet]

I can't seem to figure out how to get the nonary manifolds

[left wagon]

From rotn dungeons

[graceful hemlock]

help help, which dlc do i need for broodweaver

[spare tusk]

best way to get a lot of them is to do the seasonal challenges that award the 'Curio of the Nine' which can be exchanged for a few hundred manifolds at the Emissary

If you got all of those you gotta just farm rotn chests

[twin peak]

lightfall

[tacit gyro]

Is there any reason to get all catlysts for barrow dyrad?
Thinking of just get max intinsic and one for all, since i still need to get choir of one and some rite of nine weapons and seasonal weapons before they leave

[spare tusk]

Theres never a reason not to get a catalyst really

its a direct buff in one way or another

It just depends whether you want to go through the process

[severe cosmos]

ofa is the only must have, id say

[tacit gyro]

Ok thanks, will try to get them all if i can. But aim for ofa

[dark kiln]

if I reset my rank do I lose my engrams?

[turbid talon]

No.

[unborn river]

im getting hatchling because i like green worms. also ofa and target lock becasue they synergize nicely with the two intrinsic options

[severe cosmos]

in what situation would you use target lock in?

[pearl plinth]

on paper I could understand why people could think it to be a good option for the Ambition mode

[bitter hull]

people use target lock on the ambition version of barrow dyad when using it for primary DPS (e.g. with storms keep)

[severe cosmos]

"primary dps" is where that convo ends

[weary cradle]

does disruption break on glaives boost the melee dmg

[severe cosmos]

yes

[weary cradle]

wild

[stark spade]

How do i play a match in iron banner? I cant seem to find it in crucible match

[fierce spear]

It’s not in rotation anymore

[stark spade]

So its never comoing back? cause i got a quest saying play an iron banner match xD

[worthy heath]

anteater error code means my internet sucks?

[fierce spear]

In like September or something

[pearl plinth]

coming back with Ash and Iron in like 3 1/2 months

[bleak umbra]

Was i reading correctly there will be no more director?

[unborn river]

with the intrinsic that generates more blight when holding on a single target. supposedly its good for single target damage in lost sectors and such

[eternal quartz]

How many manifolds does one curio get you

[tepid yew]

Sort of. The "Destination" tab, where the Director is found, is being renamed to the "World" tab. It'll still exist and allow you to visit everything currently on it, but will likely receive no new changes going forwards.

[naive silo]

what does it mean when you have to calibrate a fusion rifle against any target?

[pearl plinth]

kill things with it

[naive silo]

ah ok thx

what is the fastest way and easiest way of getting special ammo?

[tepid yew]

Most people usually just farm Shuro Chi from the Last Wish raid since you can place a raid banner to refill your ammo, kill all the adds, then die to reset the area and do it again.

[naive silo]

do you unlock the raids after 5 comp games?

[hasty hinge]

anyone know if finality auger bait and switch is retroactive

[tepid yew]

No, you can just join at any time

[hasty hinge]

with turret out

[tepid yew]

What do you mean retroactive?

[naive silo]

where can i find the raids?

[hasty hinge]

if i put my turret out and then damage with other weapons will it get bns buff or do i have to switch back to it

[candid gale]

how can i see my fps ingame? msi afterburner doesnt show it

[tepid yew]

You're wondering if the turret also gets the bonus damage from Bait and Switch?

[tepid yew]

Turn it on in settings

I think it's at the bottom of the Gameplay section

[naive silo]

where can i join raids (it might be a stupid question but i dont know)

[tepid yew]

Like most things in the game, you can find them in the Destination's tab. Most will be found on the planet where the raid takes place, but a few are also found in the Legend menu.
