Super rough estimate, around 10 hours

raw hill
#

hmmm

#

not THAT bad

#

as least not as bad as people made it to be

#

ty

drifting schooner
#

yeah the problem is 400 to 450

raw hill
#

hm?

drifting schooner
#

thats like 80hours

raw hill
#

wat

#

why

drifting schooner
#

ask bungo

raw hill
#

but

#

wait

#

since 400 already drop tier 5 gears right ?

unborn cloak
#

the answer is it takes that long because it's not supposed to be done right now

tepid yew
#

You can smash out Solo Ops missions in around 3-4 min with an A rank, which will usually reward you with gear that will increase your total power by 1. So 200-400 is roughly 200 runs, at 4 min each, is a safe 13.33 hours

unborn cloak
#

ash and iron will increase the cap to 550

raw hill
#

ohh

unborn cloak
#

all you get for doing it now is getting a 50 power headstart in ash and iron before needing to do it again

raw hill
#

hmmm

#

oke

unborn cloak
#

ultimate unlocks at 451 so you can't even get an early jump into that

#

it's probably not really done right now anyway

raw hill
#

and everything gonna be reset back to 200 when renegade drop

#

hmm, I mean... it's not that bad

#

might do it this weekend

#

get to 400 I mean*

Is it possible that the Black Armory weapons will ever get reprised?

tepid yew

Anything is possible lol

Some already have

Probably, all the BRAVE weapons were fairly iconic for their time which is likely why they got selected.

tepid yew
# cinder herald is year 8 worth buying? any advice?

The Year of Prophecy? It doesn't have anything major at the moment like a new subclass or important meta Exotic, so it really comes down to your tastes and whether you like story content. Personally I enjoyed the Edge of Fate, I thought the story was compelling and I didn't hate the gimmick mechanics like some people do. I have high hopes for Renegades, but I know people feel divisive given its Star Wars connection.

At least with this most recent change, things seem to be a lot more forgiving for people that take breaks. Instead of the infinite climb upwards that you're forced to catch up on, they've changed the whole system. 10-200 is the new player experience, with most content only needing 200 to participate. Everything beyond 200 are seasonal levels, which reset each season. That means if you take a break and come back at the beginning of a future season, you'll be right there at 200 with everyone else, no catchup needed.

steel sundial
#

but it's random

#

tier 5's can drop at 300 power and gr 7

#

also rare

#

the further up you go, the less rare it gets, it seems

Why did bungie say

🔥 All Solstice gear drops are +1 Gear Tier during Solstice.

if I still get t4 loot when I get an A grade at 400 power whcih is T4 loot. Shouldnt it be T5?

# sweet zinc Fonts

It should be pretty easy to go Paragon with Grenade random and slap on mods + Fonts to hit 200 Melee. You just have to make sure your rolls are getting at least 20 in Melee for each piece.

If you want to sweat without Fonts, you could go for Tier 5 Paragon with Grenade Random and Melee Tuning paired with a Brawler Exotic (with Super/Grenade Random). Without armor mods or fonts, you should be able to hit 150 Melee, 120-130 Super, and 100-110 Grenade, letting you easily max Melee with armor mods.

flechete storm cant stun champs right? like the unreaveling?

Onslaught disappeared for a bit there 😭🙏

Onslaught is also apparently 30 rounds now

silver prairie
#

Oh???

abstract bear
#

is the tuning stat random or tied to archtype?

tepid yew
steel sundial
#

yeah

tepid yew
#

So essentially, if you're grinding "perfect" armor, you have 4 sets of RNG:

  1. The piece itself dropping (Bonus Focus helps mitigate)
  2. Correct Tier (Power/GR helps mitigate)
  3. Correct Archetype (Ghost mod should help mitigate)
  4. Tuning Slot (Purely random)
steel sundial

they need to stop putting weapons for the bonus focus man

wat is BEST roll for mint retro? pve

woeful phoenix

What we thinking?

steel sundial
slender cypress
#

So does the 2019 solstice armor not have elemental glows?

tulip oar
#

The way it has always worked is the armor you grind glows white while the armor you buy (either with silver or dust) glows with subclass/super matching

slender cypress

is there online matchmaking with randoms for quests?

deft lodge
#

Is alethonym a good ad clear option for a stasis hunter build?

tulip oar
# stone sand is there online matchmaking with randoms for quests?

If by quests you mean the actual Quests in the Quests tab, then no. If by quests you mean activities (missions/ops/strikes/dungeons/raids/etc.) then the answer is "it depends" but in the event where there isn't matchmaking there are a ton of LFG tools that it will be all but guaranteed to be listed.

im not too far away from level 350, does my loot get better at all i thought i heard somthign about 350 giving better loot.

steel sundial

still not enough to guarantee tier 4's but enough to have a steady ish flow of them

that would be nice im having rough rng with solstice which means id getting t5s more often

#

is there a website to see my fastest caldera clear and my overall valdera clears, like raidport for soloops basically?

silver prairie
#

so ada?

#

cause xur drops got put onto ada I thought

steel sundial
#

or wait

#

yeah

#

she might sell it a random day

orchid cloud
#

So if you get 750 solstice alloys you can get the full set with glows, right?

orchid cloud
#

and I’m guesing solo ops is the fastest alloy farm?

steel sundial
#

yup

orchid cloud
#

So thats 30 solo ops completions

#

Thats easy

orchid cloud
#

I know expert drops 25

steel sundial
#

no

#

but you should run for A tier to also get good solstice gear and weapons to drop at the same time

#

its very good for power leveling and you can get tier 5’s

#

unless yoh just care ab the drip which is respectable

unreal cedar
#

Does it matter if you do expert or advanced to get t5 on caldera? Advanced has the grappler mod and it helps alot

steel sundial
#

actually i dont think yoh can get tier 5’s if you arent on master

#

need to be 300 PL at least

edgy pewter
#

i havne't seen a tier 5 yet but im only like PL 305

#

really only just started getting consistent t4

glass dock
#

I started to get t5 at 320 rank 7, but idk if it matters or how it works. I just hope it's intentional lol

#

Since Solice event loot is +1 tier

edgy pewter
#

yea i need to run that match game modifier and rank up

edgy pewter

thin stream
#

Am I missing something? I put my first incandescent ingot on my mark, but I'm not noticing any kind of glow or anything. Do you need to have the entire set imbued before they start glowing?

edgy pewter

guess ima do some grinding this week. Shame the crucible mode is ass

#

I mean if you want to grind PL during Solistice then Solo Ops it is. But I realized I have to do pvp for the title..

#

I only did a couple games, but all I saw the entire time was the 2 teams spamming their shots down chokepoints towards the spark, or control points. I miss the chaos of the standard Scorched Clash

edgy pewter
thin stream
#

Yeah I'm not a fan of how you have to do the same activity over and over in order to make any prodoction on raising your power level. I really hope that bungie changes that, because I would MUCH rather have the old system than this new extremely grindy version.

you’re telling me i have to be 400 to get rank 9🫩

I don't even like that you have to be at least 340 just to get to rank 8

i think if you get 350 and get that kepler +1 gear bonus, T5 will drop from caldera

#

Im 4 PL away to see

thin stream
#

I 100% agree, like I love the idea of not having us JUST do the same strikes we've always done, with one or two extras every new season or so. But at the same time, at least there was MULTIPLE different ways to increase your power. Hell, I'd be fine with gambit being in the portal just for some variety

loud flame
glass dock
#

We shall see. I just hope it's intentional tbh 😂

thin stream
#

Honestly I actually want to grind up to 350 now just to test it, because that would be sick and make grinding less painful. Especially since you have to keep adding modifiers just to get A rank more consistently

glass dock
#

Well

#

You dont need to make the mission A

tepid yew
glass dock
#

It's enough with B+

thin stream
#

Yeah I know that, but the perfectionist in me needs to see that A rank

glass dock
tepid yew

#

That makes sense then because of the +1, okey I can chill then. Will check later if there's a diff from PL 350

do the armorer mods still work on legacy armor?

like if i have the grenadier mod on my ghost will it do the same thing as discipline armorer for legacy armor?

eternal lodge
#

quick grinding question

#

I am currently at 406 and I don’t have a single activity that drops more than that

severe cosmos
#

so i doubt it

#

oh lmao ok

severe cosmos
#

powering up past 400 is rng

orchid cloud
#

i'm so glad they kept legacy armor because i'm trying to find more super even armor like this lmao

that’s the issue

they don’t lmao

Just a quick question. Is it intentional for the solar flare pickups to cause strand titans to get infinite super?

uncut elm
#

but its not like you can expect to go strictly melee

steel perch
#

Did it change or the aim assist is still the same with a mouse and controller ? Seemed to be the case when I looked up aim assist on D2 but thoses post were old

tawny quiver
# spare tusk Im sorry what

This guy i'm playing with is saying it is intentional. by sliding with the solar flares and activating the strand titan super with a certain aspect, he can continuously use his super infinitely

Yes it will work with new pieces too

that's okay then, thank you very much

spare tusk

And its completely seperate from the event mechanic

Generally controller has the sticky aim type of aim assist where you put the crosshair near targets and it has a soft drag effect

what are the weapons you can get from solstice

spare tusk
#

Areal denial gl (strand)
Smg (solar)
Bow (void)

#

@hasty hinge

#

the smg specifically I wanna give a shot cause it can get some neat perks

hasty hinge
#

thanks

fastest way to get ascendant shards

gentle marsh
#

is there an efficient way of farming bright dust after completing the season pass

spare tusk
teal adder
#

does getting the glows on the solstice armor replace the unkindled version for ornaments?

#

i heard that it does

gentle marsh
spare tusk
distant lava
#

It's not counting my pvp game for solstice mission and triumph

spare tusk
#

In the past you could theoretically get 3 variants of any solstice armor piece as ornaments
Now glow, white glow and elemental glow

abstract bear
spare tusk
#

Hop into that Delorean homie

little pendant
#

is the solstice armour not universal ornaments like usual?

#

i havent logged in to explore fully yet

pliant shadow
#

this season's ain't bad tbh

pulsar jungle
#

what guardian rank and light level do you need to be to get t4/5's?

pliant shadow
#

depends

little pendant
#

just get the highest you can

#

most drops are dependant on your power

#

guardian rank drops are only mid activity ones iirc

pliant shadow
#

I know if you're 400+ you'll be getting T4-5s

#

but if you're farming solstice stuff it's actually more forgiving for higher tiers

#

and if you're on kepler it's actually based on finishing a few triumphs what tier you get to

#

in combo with what world difficulty you're on

spare tusk
pliant shadow
#

I know it's encouraged to be at least guardian rank 5

#

idk if they encourage higher than that for particular tiers

spare tusk
#

I have heard that being guardian rank 9 indeed offers a notable higher chance

pliant shadow
#

is there still a rank 11?

#

or is 9 the new max?

spare tusk
#

No clue, cant check rn either

pulsar jungle

pulsar jungle
#

seems like the rest is gonna be unlocked in ash and iron

but its capped at 9 rn because Ultimate difficulty is locked

#

Is there any website where I can track the rolls of my exotic class items?

spare tusk
#

Or Blueberries

#

One of the two

little pendant
#

engram.blue

is the best for the exotic class item rolls

#

as well as ergo sum

sharp sequoia
little pendant
#

nws

molten zodiac
#

Best build for this?

#

Like with barrel, stock perks ect

spare tusk
#

Destab for the combat perk

#

The rest is really up for personal preference

#

Whatever stats you want

molten zodiac
#

Ok

slim tangle
#

heres what lightgg says for ref

#

although i do think they may be skewed towards the perks that drop with it initially

spare tusk
#

Light.gg only uses numbers from its users which is why they can be just outright wrong many times

slim tangle
#

oh naur

spare tusk
#

But yeah those are generally what people take

slim tangle
#

yay :)

spare tusk
#

I personally always advocate to pick whatever stat perks one prefers for themselves

slim tangle
#

i reckon that is a good idea too

spare tusk
#

But on the combat perk side there really is no competition
Destab is the best plain and simple unless you really really want something else for preference reasons

molten zodiac
#

Cool thx

sharp sequoia
spare tusk
#

eeeeh

#

I guess if you really wanna?

#

Idk if Destab is still bugged aka inconsistently granting destab rounds its still in basically any situation the best option

spare tusk
abstract bear
#

Full

#

Everything dies in 1 shot

spare tusk
#

Its a full reload on any kill?

#

That aint how sub usually works

abstract bear
#

3 shots for an orange bar and then fill back up on red bar

#

It’s 10% mag every kill

spare tusk
#

It says here that ARs are 17% actually

abstract bear
#

Even better

spare tusk
#

Not sure if this applies to choir but it should no?

abstract bear
#

I dunno but I don’t reload

spare tusk
#

But yeah idk I personally rather take the funky void explosions

abstract bear
#

The red bars over fill

spare tusk
#

Since when can you overflow the choir mag

abstract bear
#

Overflow as in you get back more than you spend

spare tusk
#

You load more rounds than you shoot maybe
But sub doesnt generate ammo

abstract bear
#

The kills gen ammo

spare tusk
#

They what

abstract bear
#

All kills gen ammo

#

Fully self sustained weapon

spare tusk
#

They work towards the ammo meter yeah but you dont generate on every kill

abstract bear
#

You don’t need to

#

The important thing is you never have to waste time reloading

spare tusk
#

The choir reload never bothered me personally but to each their own

#

You could make the argument that with Destab you save Ammo youd otherwise be spending on other enemies

molten zodiac
#

Would this weapon be best with warlock?

abstract bear
#

When you are reloading you are not sprinting or eager or grapple

abstract bear
#

Not only that but destabilizing kills do not count as weapon or ability kills so it just slows you down

celest island
#

At what power can I start getting t5s

#

And from which source can I get said t5s

spare tusk
molten zodiac
#

I want to pair one with the exotic

#

With the scout I don’t have to worry about ammo and I don’t know if I can run double special

turbid talon
spare tusk
turbid talon
#

Choir of One is also incredibly ammo efficient as long as you're not spamming the hipfire
A couple of reserves mods do wonders

spare tusk
#

Yeah if you want to try your hands at double special give it a try with Mint
If not I would look for a different primary because Hung Jury is a scout rifle and choir is already basically a scout in the ads fire mode

Does anyone know if it's possible to get briar binds as an f2p player? And how?

Theyre tied to a prior expansion I believe

So it's impossible?

no, own lightfall

dumb question but what do you spend your solstice currency on after you’re done with the quest?

I know some ppl f2p this beach, but dam recent expansion sales are ridiculous cheap 1 or 2 bucks. Final Shape only was high like 6 bucks. Pick that shi up.

This is not a free to play game. It's a free to try game. Play, see how you enjoy, and decide on purchases at that point. But it is largely paid content.

How does that work with the lore

cerulean sail
abstract bear
#

What did homage mean

pulsar jungle
#

means like a tribute

cerulean sail
#

"Homage is a show or demonstration of respect or dedication to someone or something, sometimes by simple declaration but often by some more oblique reference, artistic or poetic. The term is often used in the arts, where one author or artist shows respect to another by allusion or imitation"

pulsar jungle
#

like how the 30th aniversary was

abstract bear
#

Oic

cerulean sail
#

forerunner is an homage to Halo but it's not directly HALO GUN wielded by JOHN HALO in destiny 2's lore

abstract bear
#

I wasn’t here on 30th release

#

So is it just Star Wars themed?

Do I have to own the DLC to get solstice engrams to drop? I haven't gotten one yet.

check the portal tabs for activities that give engrams

you've done the prerequisite quest right

It’s the set from forsaken

Have they ever reused an event set before?

How poss. Is guaranteed +1 tier

Oh yeah

Well under 400 make sense

#

I thought you were 400 the whole time

high lily

#

Not every time

high lily
#

Still

abstract bear
#

About as rare as you maybe a tiny bit more common

#

But I heard under 400 is better chance at holo foil

#

Now you should be guaranteed every time

timber apex
#

I forgot to ping you back about this but I actually did find a solution that let us launch as a party

Whoever is in the geographical middle of the party has to host - in my case we had 2 players from Australia, 3 from mainland US, and me in Hawaii

So I ended up hosting and we were able to get in

abstract bear
#

Wtf

#

That’s good I guess lol

#

Good thing it only needs to be done once

high lily
abstract bear
#

Oh yeah lol. Twice

timber apex
abstract bear
#

But gm you don’t need 12

timber apex
#

If the host's cutscene ends while other players are still watching it it boots everyone to orbit

high lily
timber apex
#

Because the players watching the cutscene don't have permission to q in

abstract bear
#

@knotty remnant the 17 times we got booted

knotty remnant
#

Wow

#

That was an awful experience

abstract bear
#

I told you you were loading in too fast. Slow down

timber apex
# high lily No like you gotta play it on gm for the Ergo Sum catalyst

The issue I was talking about that prevented us from launching was that at the end of the narrative cutscene the entire fireteam got booted to orbit with the error "you don't have permission to play this activity"

thad wouldn't happen in the GM though because there's no cutscene for non-narrarive runs of excision

#

other issues maybe but the one I am talking about only should happen during narrative excision which only needs to be done once

high lily
#

Yes ik 😭

timber apex
#

just clarifying that while you do have to do it twice (at least) this issue should only be an issue once

high lily
#

I was replying to Deezus about needing to play excision once, saying you gotta play gm for the Ergo catalyst

#

Yes

timber apex
abstract bear
#

It’s solved now so good to know

echo marsh
#

can we get coloured glows on the new solstice gear

I still need to do narrative on my alts

Only Eververse to match super

actually not even new

its just old stuff

but they havent put it in eververse so we cant get the glow?

Yeah, you won’t see many of those anymore though

Make sure

#

You do the wq intro to unlock enclave first

are they slowly removing these types of weapons?

but why

They didn’t like the direction

fair enough

this coins are just for armor right?

Not even fully masterworked gear is dropping them

do i need eof to do this?

do you have eof?

no

cause im pretty sure you dont have access to that without eof

that is why i asking

chilly spade

are you on keplar rn???

the only keplar mission i can do is caldera

#

the rest is lock behind paywall

oh, are you accessing that table from the mission its self?

from portal

regardless yes you do need eof, keplar weapons dont drop from solo ops
