Huh, I think you read it wrong
Yeah, you’ll need 100 in PvP
hence me saying 50 70 doesnt apply to pvp
Ok, we are saying the same thing
can the portal version of empire hunts drop cloudstrike?
I haven't seen anyone report it dropping for them from the portal version and the fact the portal empire hunts are f2p (while cloudstrike isn't) would be a pretty strong argument against it dropping there. I know folks have had it drop from the normal/expected route (higher difficulty EHs launched from Europa's map) in the last few weeks, though
thank you
i've noticed an increase in players looking to get cloudstrike, is there a reason behind that
snipers get 2 ammo in pvp with ash of iron
does anyone know if the grenade damage increase from having a high grenade stat impacts the shatter damage of cold snap grenades
What's the strat for farming Master Starcrossed while 40 levels under?
It should
Don’t or get someone high power level on your fireteam
how much light should we be under?
20 is acceptable in my eyes
okay but how am I gonna earn A rewards then?
Under 30 starts to feel easier
B+ forecast and finish within the time limit without obliterating your revives to get an A reward score
You only need to set it to b+ for pinnacle ops and if you beat the time, you’ll end with A
just any B+?
Yes
wdym obliterating revives
you get more score for having more revives left i think?
i think.... it might be placebo but i swear i've finished with less score when i've run out of lives in solo ops
im on master
I was a returning player for heresy, and I’m relatively new to the whole season system. Does the gamepass change every new season, or does it shift per major update?
We get 2 reward passes a season. The current reward pass ends tomorrow with the launch of Ash & Iron
I’m confused. I don’t remember there being 2 passes, are you talking about the free pass and the upgraded one?
No
You know how if you log into the game and load up the Director (where you see World, Portal, etc.)?
And there's a tab called Reward Pass
That
Yes
That's what changes tomorrow
What used to be called a Season Pass
But we now get 2 per Season, so calling it a Season Pass is wrong
half a season pass 
We're still in Season 27 tomorrow, but there's a new battle pass tomorrow
Might be able to clarify things better if you could elaborate on your question a bit, since "gamepass" is not a thing in Destiny terms (and even generally in gaming terms it mostly just means the Xbox subscription these days), and "shift" is real vague.
Alright.
yeah, gamepass means either xbox subscription or pay to win shit on roblox
So I was a returning player, and I hopped on at the beginning of heresy. I remember only one reward pass, was there a different reward pass for each episode before that. And is reclamation considered a season or not? And is tomorrow’s update part of this season or is it going to be a different season all together? And how many seasons can occur within a year?
I’m tired, and confused. I think a few of these were answered, but i’m just making sure.
As described in the image above, there are 2 seasons a year now, directly tied to expansions. Each Season gets 2 reward passes. This is a new model
2 seasons per year, two rewards passes per season
Alright.
So tomorrow's update is an update to the current season, but also introduces a new Pass. The new content introduced tomorrow does not require the Pass to play as the reward pass is literally just the rewards now.
It's a new reward track starting tomorrow
Like the only parts of this that are actually new to Destiny are the battle passes not being required to access the playable content, and there being multiple battle passes per season.
Thank you very much.
hows gamblers dodge gonna change tomorrow?
Rahool
I'm not sure if this will help, but here is some context.
Previously, there were 4 seasons per year, and each season would last 3 months. If you wanted to participate in the seasonal activities, you had to buy the Season Pass, which also included the Seasonal Reward track. After 3 months, the season would end and its Reward pass would go away.
Last year they changed the system from "Seasons" to "Episodes". They were essentially the same, but there were only 3 episodes per year, and each episode would last 4 months. If you wanted to participate in the episode activities, you had to buy the pass for that Episode, which also included the Episode Reward track. After 4 months, the episode would end and its Reward pass would go away. (You should be familiar with this from Heresy)
This year, they changed the system from "Episodes" back to "Seasons", however there is only 2 seasons per year, and each season lasts 6 months (the same length as the new DLC release schedule). They have made seasonal activities entirely F2P, so you no longer have to buy any passes to unlock activities. However, you can choose to buy the "Reward Pass" for some bonus materials and cosmetics. Each Reward Pass works similarly to the old seasonal system; each one lasts 3 months, then it goes away. Unlike the old system, the reward pass is completely disconnected from the season.
Complete the campaign
Ah thanks
Dear god, I knew you were making a whole passage!
So starting tomorrow, this will be considered the last reward pass of the current season?
Correct, the reward pass starting with Ash & Iron will be the last pass of Season Reclamation (27)
Alright. Thank you.
I love it
What happened to trials loot?
Still there, they changed up the system quite a lot
Like 2 months ago you would get showered with loot at the light house
wtf happened.
I didn’t even get a gun
Loot scales off win streak
It's always been that way haha
?????
What the fuck
What do you mean it’s always been like that last season I got showered with gear.
your power lvl is prob barely enough to play trials
last season was better tho, i've got more weapons from matches, there was a featured weapon each week, and we had the option to focus with saint
at least the featured weapon is coming back
With the change in Episode Heresy, this is the base amount of loot you will earn at the Lighthouse chest separate from your win streak. Your win streak determines bonus rewards.
That said, they did rebalance the chest loot with Edge of Fate, so getting 1x Weapon + 1x Armor might no longer be guaranteed
does third iteration get any benefit from reload speed?
According to the Compendium, yes.
interesting, was considering dusting off my graviton forfeit hunter and putting iteration on it, looks like there might be some use to it
I was just talking to someone using that same combo, said it was a lot of fun
I would imagine so, free invis, infinite ammo, decent damage
Do the Vanguard rolls change? Watching a YouTube video and I don’t see the same rolls as them.
zavala's weapon changes weekly and all have different rolls
No no, it’s within the same week.
they dont change
guys i have 14 hours to finish the rewards pass (i started 2 weeks ago, im rank 84) what should i do 😭 ive completed almost every challenge
Grind Solo Ops
And finish up any challenges. Especially those with xp+++ or xp++++. There are some for heavy metal too. Portal weeklies give lots of XP too.
Is Melas Panoplia good in grandmaster level stuff? Like 400+
thank yall
does the crucible kill tracker only track final blows?
If I’m running a tempest strike/ascension build, what is the best relativism roll? I see everyone recommending liars/caliban or liars/hoil (in general), but if I’m almost exclusively using the tempest strike ability, counterpunch will never be used and will waste the liar perk. Does this make sense?
If i quit d2 abt a month ago is there reason to return for ash and iron
new gear to get, possible story and a exotic mission
more content to play yea
I swear this exotic mission better like reasonably easy for a solo player to aqquire all the CATS and other stuff for the gun and not like i must complete at -50 like the graviton stuff
im gonna strangle bungie if this is another relic
theres lfg in game and also mythic patrol is completely different from an exotic mission
I wonder how itll work with the new systems
you cant use tempest strike with the class item because tempest strike isnt on prismatic
the exotic mission? the same as they always have
but will it be launched through portal?
Honestly is there a point to hit 550 or like nah
cause i am not motivated to grind another 350 levels in december
you get gauranteed t5 loot at 500 power
what
Is there any reason to think we won’t be able to pull old pass materials and engrams again?
Potentially
those website might work still
If you'd be sad to lose them, pull them now
ya go grab them rq
I’m still frisking out power level so I’ll probably scoop up all the engrams just for the power boost yeah.
Grinding** wow
Neither but austringer of the two
What’s a good PvP hc
hawkmoon, ace or thorn
the have different rpms so hard to compare
theyre also different slots
Is sturm getting a rework
yes
Do you think it’ll be good?
depends on the mystery weapon that will pair with it
Sightline is popular because it can 3 tap, but whether you feel consistent enough to pull that off is another matter
but usually, 120 hc are for pvp
I wouldn’t say that
Wdym
When stream?
9am PT
From the looks of the little we know, it’s gonna be more like an Into The Light or 30th Anniversary
Not really a story, just a refresh and an addition of content
I remember the video saying smth about a heist
Potentially in Renegades in 3 months
it was described as Into The Light sized updates
Oh bruh
Warsat Heist is the new exotic mission
Will that be available tomorrow
We don’t know
maybe
Oh and the Micah tool smg is coming back?
MIDA yes
Is it good
I'd highly recommend just looking at the TWAB haha
at the most twab yea
they seem smaller i mean ITL gave us 2 exotic missions, a new activity, pantheon,
What does twab stand for
itl gave 2 reprised exotic missions
this week at bungie
I mean Panthoen was huge
At the very least, it’ll give us more than the current portal “story”
Regardless, this is where we get the majority of our info
Oh ok thx
Has anyone gotten the prometheus catalyst from any of the portal missions? Ive gotten catalysts for monte carlo, jotuun, izanagi, and huckleberry. So I don’t know if it’s strike specific, but it seems like the fireteam missions act as if you’re playing vanguard. Is this the case for anyone else?
And yes, this occasionally worked on solo ops.
Usually 1/14 tries on advanced+
Is arthrys embrace good
do we get like a new battlepass and like new ornaments that comes with the new battlepass?
yes there will be a new reward pass
Yay 20$
1000 silver
Yea for me that’s like 15$
What is it?
It’s a hunter exotic
it's good in pvp
gives weighted knives insane tracking
Can I still get doomed petinoer
starcross exotic mission in legends node when featured
What’s the featured exotic mission as of rn?
vox
Ah garbage
Are there only 4?
How can I check the upcoming featured missions

Will Mint Retrograde still drop even though it isnt the feature weapon in pinnacle?
it can but the loot pool is large
I get em from farming kells fall, either that or bushido.
oomf is having this issue, has anyone seen this or have a fix? fresh install and a reset didnt help
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1357771817984462888/1414819241756069959/Buggy_Destiny.mp4?ex=68c0f499&is=68bfa319&hm=7d5e1fc67f8bcea672d89b5637cf095d98bb6bb5d440a98d6fc1d6648d4295c1&
I have not a clue what is happening right there.
stuttering in cutscenes and extremely delayed audio from firing
Ive not a clue, i’m on ps4. And I’ve never experienced that before.
Ive had an issue where characters would speak during cutscenes but their voices couldn’t be heard, but I haven’t experienced that since heresy.
That wasn't a bug, that was because the voice lines were cut due to an irl actor strike
My ps4 is just that good then. That’s Irony at its finest.
Have you changed anything in your setup recently? Is it happening to any other games?
not happening in other games and they haven't changed anything i'm p sure
Not them, you. New monitor, GPU, etc?
well, no, but what does it matter what I changed, it's them having the issue, not me
they're tryna start playing
Oh, I misunderstood what you were asking. I thought "them" was referring to Bungie
them…
You mentioned they're on a clean install of D2, have they made sure Windows and their drivers are up to date?
has the NLB ornament been sold yet?
don’t think so
it's from year of prophecy ultimate, i don't think it's going to be sold
wait, is it?
yeah
oh so it is
man i should've ponied up the 20 bucks i've been rabid for the damn gun
thanks for letting me know!
i know the catalyst is delayed by a season for non "deluxe" owners but i forgot how it works for the ornament
it does specify they might sell the dark side legends bundle in the future
but nothign about the ornament
so who knows
actually i don't think the ornament becomes available to standard owners
the quicksilver one did
eventually
provided you owned lightfall
oh? because iirc the osteo striga one didn't
i do indeed not have the quicksilver ornament
that's a shame, i would have paid the 20 bucks for the ornament had i known lmao
the quicksilver ornament is just an ugly recolor anyway, bleh
as for the NLB ornament surely you can buy the upgrade
Does disorienting blow and combination blow matter when using tempest strike?
yes
you ideally want combination blow
for the damage stacking right? does disorienting give a blind effect to tempest strike?
assuming you mean pve, yeah
it also refunds your class ability on kills
(inconsistently due to a bug, but still)
isn't the upgrade still the full 100 bucks
no
Whats the highest power I can get before it getting reset tomorrow?
current power cap is 450
whether you can attain that in the next 12 hours is entirely dependent on your current power level
oh yeah that too
ooooh, nice
It will reset on December 2
thought it was just resetting, have not been keeping up a lot lately
(to 200)
thanks :)
Hey 2 quick questions yall how big do you think this new update will be for Xbox. And with the edge of fate I had to completely reinstall destiny to play the edge of fate is there a way that I’ll have to reinstall the game again for this update?
its a relatively small seasonal update
shouldnt be more than a gigabyte or two
I didnt really have time to play this week and didnt feel the fomo
Did i miss some must-haves with the new shotty and sword?
the sword is the only “new gear” sword with eager edge
thats pretty much it though
the shotgun while pretty is mid
it looks cool but you can't skate with it
i will stand by the fact that less than 1% of destiny players even skate in the first place
so its kind of a non-issue
i never got that down anyways. Then i will coast on that fomo-resistance and chill some more
big new update tomorrow though
or i guess technically today where i am
i know. but it will take a while to update for me and i will see the new stuff on reddit the next morning
there's not a whole lot of content where you want to skate in also, specially with now needing to kill ads and most things having objectives
i think transition spaces in GotD is the primary spot to skate
praying for a solo ops where i can get A/A+ without doing an objective
so i can just speed to the end
underwater?
nah, the rest though
people just light attack eager through that
angles are too short and narrow to skate through most of
true. but eager would still be usefull
If you use eager edge for light attack movement (which is the majority use-case), the new sword will be good to have to use in Touche with the point change
If you're unaware, the scaling on Locked Loadout is being reduced to a similar level to Avant Garde, and a combo of the two is being introduced as "Touche" which should have similar scaling to the current Locked Loadout
If you hate Avant Garde, this just means you'll need to use more banes and deltas to get A ranks. Otherwise you'll want a new gear only loadout for farming
We won't know for certain how it all plays out with the other reward/difficulty tweaks that are coming until it's actually in our hands, so maybe this is just a bit of fear mongering. But it wasn't very hard to farm a few rounds of Heavy Metal until a sword with Eager dropped
love a good wing paragraph before i go to bed
Is there gonna be any downtime soon for ash and iron?
Hey, got a quick question, if I have unclaimed engrams in my rewards pass, would they also be available to grab from the Seasonal Archive being implemented tomorrow?
i believe they said past passes have a 1 pass duration delay. so you'll have to wait till renegades. Or use an extension like season pass wayback machine
i thought the archive was getting added in renegades
Nope, tomorrow
Will the Seasonal Archive have season 27? I read somewhere it will only be throuugh season 26
No season 27. As was just explained, there will be a 1 pass duration delay
Season 27 is 6 months long. We've done 3 months, Ash & Iron is the mid season update, we'll have another 3 months
Okay diodnt see that, thank you. Last question, will the final 10 tiers (100-110) Be added also?
They haven't clarified, so assume we will lose them.
So is the battlepass actually changing tomorrow then? you said 6 months long so will there be another battlepass under season 27?
it is changing
2 rewards passes per season
Actually, there's a good chance we might. From their preview image, the final reward from Heresy (the alternate helmet ornament from Rank 200) is included.
Considering the final reward from this pass is also an alternate helmet ornament at rank 110, there is a chance it'll be included
Thank god, just returned from a long hiatus and was about to drop 100 bucks JUST to finish this pass but now I can save money!
And how long has the 2 battlepass thing been in for? I appreciate all the help btw thank you!
Holy fomo
This is a return to the old 4 passes per content year
Since Edge of Fate when they reworked the entire system
Daym alr, ty guys!
id still recommend getting YOP for 3 passes
that's $20 less
the only thing those extra 20 do is cosmetics and no land beyond
what are the binds for the rockets in heavy metal i cant figure it out :(
go to the heavy metal events page and it'll tell you what the secondary weapon keybind is
it says <?>
its not bound
sounds like youve rebound a bunch of stuff in the past and that messed with it
rebind it under the vehicle section
all i know is that its E by default
Does anyone know how u get sturm catalyst now
"Any Non-Guardian Death on Nessus"
How would you get a guardian death on Nessus?

Seems sillie to specify it that way
Crucible
That never counts for destinations
well here its more explicit i guess idk
Oh, it actually says it like that in game?
no
If you want the actual wording, "Found by defeating the enemies of humanity on Nessus."
i mean its technically saying crucible wont count
I like that wording better 
Yo when the ash and iron comes out is mint retrograde still gonna be farmable
I don't see why it wouldn't
what's the name of the new shotgun
Trachinius?
if thats the heavy metal one then yeah thanks
You've got the next 7.5 hours to get it
need all the sword and shotgun rolls so hope i get the hang of it, havent dont heavy metal before
Good luck soldier o7
what do i have to do to get a trials memento now
they changed the way passages work so now what
you cant get it out the lighthouse?
well im on a 5 win streak and nothing
so i assume its 6
alright thats 6 in a row
nothing still
If you have a 5+ Win-streak when you visit the Lighthouse, you will get one
ah
im on a casual 8 win streak, and uh i aint doing nothing special
did people get worse?
Are you on the Trials passage or the Lighthouse passage?
lighthouse
Did you complete your Passage? The matchmaking changes at a certain point from streak to mmr
If you read that article I linked, it'll explain how all the matchmaking works
I'm not much of a Trials player so I know the bare minimum haha
I just get bodied and hope the pity loot rolls well haha
farming catalysts is a waste of time given their somewhat low drop rate
especially for Thunderlord
you can get Outbreak and all its catalysts right now if you complete the quests Ada-1 gives you, does more damage and has better super generation
will there be new exotics in ash and iron?
yes
honestly ive gotten most of my catalysts from crucible
At least 2
dawg
outbreak super regen is like hours away from being nuked from the game
6 hours till they literally reshape the meta lol

not even nuked
Yooo
do you guys think they will implement more supers later on? or like new characters? has there been anything about that? i think people lowkey want more diversity no?

wouldnt count on anything until after year of prophecy
meaning next dlc
after renegades
this guy loves his stickers
emoji moment
aint no way lighthouse only dropped me a t3 😭 what was the point of going there when matches drop t4s or one heavy metal is 4 drops of t4s a win
lol
it depends on ur record in trials
i did all of her quests
lmfao u know how long ive been grinding for it? still nothign
im telling u crucible/trials is ur best option
70% of my catalysts have been from there
Damn guess I did that bad 😭
And no trials weapons for any drops
u can get them normally from just wins if u look at my pic i got a tier 4 aishas just from a win
they will eventually drop
i gotta play crucible more i guess
its quick and its fun lowkey thats why im telling u
Sigh trials leaving today tho right?
yea pretty sure everthing is getting a whole reset today
And I’m shit so wins will be hard 😂
check xur if u need any catalysts or exotics do whatever u gotta do
Oh damn
try and find a carry trials lfg
Yep got everything. Got to 400 before the update
lfg in game it says find before u start a trials match or any activity that isnt solo under ur emblem or the destiny 2 lfg server
Ohh gotcha
whats a good way to get exotic engrams?
Does the account power change happen in todays update or renegades
Are raid exotics farmable
no
you get one shot per character per week
is ash and iron coming out today or just preview?
today
in roughlyyyy 5 hours?
is there a predownload?
The live steam is at 12pm est right?
lol
uhhhh
lol indeed
i think so?
should i use spoils to get legend of acrius or anarchy? or should i save them to get red border raid weapons
red border raid weapons you can just farm. easily at that.
Acrius>Anarchy
so is it not worth it buying a guaranteed one from the vendor every week?
why
Acrius more meta rn
eh the guaranteed one why not
but no reason to spam any more
sorry, no reason to buy any more raid weapons than the guaranteed red every week
So I purchased witch queen deluxe edition back when it came out and it came with 3 seasons so I’m curious because I never played 2 of them does that mean with the seasonal archive today I will be able to earn those rewards automatically or would I have to purchase them again?
do we get like a devstream or like live thingy update i dunno what its called...before the new update?
Yeah at <t:1757433600:t>
Almost 3 hours from now
You’ll have to buy the rewards with Chronologs assuming you didn’t reach the respective ranks for the rewards you want
You won’t have to buy the passes again
What's a Chronolog ?
New currency for the archived pass rewards
Comes from the reward pass
Both tracks
oooh. How many levels can you get on an old reward pass per season ?
If you own the pass but didn’t reach the ranks for their respective rewards, you buy them for Chronologs
So you can only level up rewards passes for which you'd bought the season previously right ?
oh, that's pretty cool!
Menu looks like this
It’s just the cosmetic rewards
And the weapon
And catalyst
yeah of course
okay so you don't even have to level it how it would, you just pick and choose
nice
can you get like, all of these rewards in a single rewards pass ?
5k
goddamn... I need all those datapads...
We don’t really know how many Chronologs the reward pass will have or how much these cost so we’ll just find out
oh they haven't released yet ?
good to know
What can dares of eternity give ?
does ash and iron raise cap to 550?
Some old weapons and armor, as well as tokens that you can exchange for craftable weapons
are glaive melee kills not supposed to count towards the crucible tracker?
Okok
They're unpowered melees now
So something might have gotten lost in translation there
guess ill make a report
Anyone know how to get the metoric mission to start getting warlock bonds? I already beat pale heart and the missions for variks
Metoric is no longer in the game
Rip
If you're specifically wanting the Class Exotic, that's the Dual Destiny questline
Meteoric was a seasonal questline for Episode Echoes
havent played in a year, whats the recommended level for raiding? and is there a new power level method?
I saw videos of 1500 level and now its 450 ? I'm new to the game
yes, the last major release led to a level squish
10-200 is the new player experience, pretty much anything you do will get you closer to that goal. 200 is when you can do most content in the game, including raids. If you really just want to grind to that level, do Solo Ops
hence the lower power levels you see currently compared to what was like a year ago
note that the current max is 450
rodger rodger
(current max is 450, will be 550 at reset)
oops
Oh thats why ! Similar as WoW did then now its clear lol thx for the info
indeed
To clarify something, 10-200 is the new player experience, 200-550 is the seasonal grind. At the end of the season in December, anyone above 200 will be reset back down to 200 as a way for new/returning players to catch up
oh ! okay thats a thing
For now I'm just tryig to learn the ropes and know where to go lol.
yes Destiny will generally offer easy access to catchup gear and force the minimal level to a certain number with big releases
but as a new player you can realistically just play the game and levels will come by naturally
Won't this be boring for experience player and endgame stuff ?
that's a very hot topic currently 
Oh okay haha I understand xD
But thx! I'll just do random stuff and look around hope to find loot etc until 200 😄
Destiny has started back on this after a couple years of barely ever pushing up the level. Whether that's a good idea long term will have to be seen ... long term.
Just to unlock dual destiny mission is crazy
Realistically, a lot of popular endgame content (raids and dungeons) can be accessed by 200. It's just the seasonally difficult content (like Grandmaster/Ultimate content) that will be restricted to higher Power
Yeah, there are a lot of steps. And the Dual Destiny mission itself can't be done solo, so you will need a partner to help
Rip 😂 finna head to the tower and recruit sum guardians
You can do all the prereq stuff solo though. The worst part is just doing the 6ish Overthrows
After that it's ezpz
Hmmm, I run the buddy system so it might not be so bad
Thats what I need to learn, I'm having trouble browsing the interface and menus lol
The menus are a bit confusing, especially since they redid quite a few of them with Edge of Fate. Most campaigns, raids, dungeons, and other older content can be found in the "World" tab. The "Portal" is the new menu Bungie is pushing, which is how you access most the new activities that reward the new gear/weapons.
Much of that older content is still worth doing. At the very least, it's worth doing the campaigns that unlock the Stasis, Strand, and Prismatic subclasses. And many of the old raid and dungeon weapons are still top tier.
Good to know ! thx
Awesome thank you 🙂 this makes me a lil excited
No worries, feel free to ask any other questions. D2 can be quite confusing when you're starting out, but I promise it gets easier haha
wait when does renegades release?
november?
December
December
ok
The Dungeon Lairs in the Portal will
is that a normal set of dungeons or is it like rite of nine style
Just a single encounter
oh sweet
lairs
Impossible for anyone outside of Bungie to answer definitively
But also Warlord will be free for the next two weeks
So just get a real clear if that's what you want
Is this game scaled ? I mean, when doing an activity, how to know If I have the minimum requirement ? Or is everything scale for the activity im doing ?
Can conq be gilded right now or are more gms to come?
depends on the activity
most of the game does not scale
Kinda replying to myself but yeah shouldve gone to media
How can I know If I can do the activity ? Does it tell me ? I'm doing a Solo Ops rn to lvl up abit, and vanguard I believe its called. But are the eneie or ally the same lvl as me ?
Dunno if im clear xD sry
The game works off Power deltas, so if you are the same Power as the content, things are easy. If you are -10 below, it will be a bit harder. -40 is a challenge. -100 enemies are immune to your damage
So, solo ops at normal, everythings are 10 lvl ?
that'll show both the difficulty, as well as modifiers that can make things easier/harder.
If you don't add modifiers that increase the challenge, yes.
Appreciate it guys, thx for the tips and clear explaination
Is there a place I can see what each enemies do ? Or its online ?
To know how to fight each mobs etc ? Or I'll learn as I play ? lol
you will learn as you play
though if I may give my own piece of information regarding they each enemy does: they shoot at ya
Yeah thanks for the tip LOL
There is a firing range where you can spawn the various enemies and test stuff against them. In the tower menu.
Oh thats huge, will check it thanks
Also, what should I do with all the stuff I loot ? Like the basic weapons and armor from the start. I know theres an Infuse system to boost items, but should I keep basic stuff from beginning ?

all exotic (yellow) weapons you can reacquire from collections for cheap. basically every blue weapon you can dismantle asap
realistically you're not playing any activity that'll drop any legendary weapon you should care about, so you could probably just switch weapons when you feel like it and just upgrade the one you like using
if you want to be really sure nonetheless, you can check out #💎shard-it-keep-it

- PvE Godroll Advice: Usually, a reload perk combined with a damage or synergy perk. Primaries, intended for add clear, benefit from perks with on-kill effects/synergies, while most Specials and Heavies benefit from strong damage perks and reload perks that don't require kills.
- PvP Godroll Advice: PvP god rolls will mostly depend player input or feel (MnK, Controller). Usually, barrels will improve recoil direction, range, handling and stability. Mags will more often than not increase range or handling. The 3rd column generally consists of a stat bump perk, while the 4th column will increase damage and damage falloff.
ok so even a 30 power Yellow Item I should keep it ? and what about purple ones ?
yes yellow items I recommend vaulting them, they're static
for purple ones, refer to :

Wait r we gonna be able to buy the old season oranments with silver
You can buy access to previous passes for silver at the new monument. I believe you can claim stuff you unlocked but forgot. To unlock things you hadn't yet there's some new currency called chronologs
That has happened before, though not on a regular schedule and not for an acceptable price
yes silver but also another currency
you’ll still need to buy the pass if you didnt in the past and then spend chronologs to get the stuff from it
If you owned a Pass when it was first available, you will have instant access to its Archived Pass when it becomes available on the Seasonal Archive. At launch, all Season Passes released up to and including Season 26 will be available. Going forward, new Archived Passes will be added to the Seasonal Archive one Pass period after its end. For example, the Reclamation Archived Pass will be added to the Seasonal Archive with the launch of the Lawless Reward Pass in Renegades.
If you did not purchase a Pass while it was active, it can be acquired at the Seasonal Archive as an Archived Pass for the discounted cost of 600 Silver. However, if you purchased an item from one of the Eververse Flashback Sales, the corresponding Archived Pass can be unlocked at the Seasonal Archive for no additional cost.
Along with Archived Passes, the Seasonal Archive introduces “Chronologs,” a new currency that can presently be spent to acquire the Archive’s items. Starting with the Ash & Iron Rewards Pass, Chronologs are earned from the active Rewards Pass and are distributed across both the free and paid tracks. Additionally, any newly purchased Archived Pass will also include 500 Chronologs – enough to claim a handful of items from your new Pass.
No matter how or when you acquire a Pass, however, you won’t need to spend Chronologs for items you had earned. If you reached the required rank to claim an item in the past and either forgot to claim it or didn’t own the corresponding Pass while it was active, that item will be claimable immediately with Archived Pass ownership for no additional cost.
this means itll stay at 10?
It'll be at 6 until the next patch
They baked the nerf into this patch, realized the nerf wasn't good, but couldn't remove it in time.
is anything important going away with this weekly reset?
Heavy Metal and Seasonal Challenges
It does
wdym then
The current bout of challenges are going away
they're being replaced with new challenges
not the reward track
no rewrad track?
The reward track is also being replaced, but I'm talking about this
oh thought i misunderstood some twab
Can somebody please explain which exotics are permitted for "Avant Garde" modifier? I see some people using exotics but I don't understand which ones are allowed
any exotics that have the seasonal icon on the blue flag thing are allowed
its new and featured gear that is
Anything in this menu in Collections
Thank you so much. That was driving me crazy
if i use titan strand and get strand meditation will i be able to use it to buy fragments on my hunter?
Yep
Should be shared
So I havw to buy the new pass to be able to buy the old passes
Or I cant read
the old passes themselves you can buy separately
the currency to buy things in that pass comes from the current pass presumably but i’d hope we get a few for free
Most likely
> this or this?
> yes
Yes
When does todays bungie stream start?
9am PT
Hi guys, long time Destiny 2 player here. Thinking on returning, but I've been missing some DLC's or expansions... I don't have these
- Beyond Light
- 30th Anniversary Pack
- Final Shape
- Edge of Fate
My question is would that be enough to buy the 2 latest expansions? How much I miss out if I don't buy the other ones?
(I've quit in 2023)
Those anyone knows how to get the prismatic sub class ?
The Final Shape
introduction mission of final shape i believe
Stream is <t:1757433600:R>
So how long is the maintanance?
It depends on what you enjoy doing in game.
- Beyond Light's campaign was made free, and therefore the Stasis subclass is now F2P. Certain Exotics and other loot are locked behind the DLC, so it can still be a worthwhile purchase if you're after those things.
- 30th Anniversary is pretty low on the purchase list imo.
- The Final Shape is both a very solid campaign, contains the immensely popular Prismatic subclass, and allows access to the stellar Salvation's Edge raid.
- Edge of Fate has a surprisingly well-written campaign, allows access to Trials of Osiris (if you enjoy PVP), and has a decent assortment of gear that are currently popular. I want to note that the Portal and its rewards are entirely separate from EoF.
You could buy the latest 2 expansions and wouldn't be missing out on much, but that feels like a somewhat weird way to purchase into the game. The game regularly puts the Legacy collection on sale, which contains everything but the most recent expansions (and some dungeons), which is likely the cheapest way to get everything. Additionally, they changed from releasing a single large DLC each year to two slightly smaller DLCs every six months. If you just buy Edge of Fate and not the Year of Prophecy, you'll miss out on the Renegades DLC that launches in December.
Oh I see I wasn't aware of the Year of Prohecy thingie. I just checked it and it costs 80€ which is hehe a bit too high. I understand that it contains a lot of stuff but yea, I'll need to wait a bit to get that.
Thanks for the great answer btw :3
No worries! Personally I'd just jump back into the game without purchasing anything yet and check out all the changes that came out recently. In many ways it's an entirely new game. You'll notice your Power has been reset to 10, armor stats are entirely different from what you remember, and they've added Tiered loot rewards
How long until the D2 update? is it at normal reset time?
It should be going down about now, but there is usually some wiggle room
Ah okay, thank you
Scroll up a bit
when is update?
Now
#🟩server-status🟩 while you wait, try sliksong, its GOOD
is there a better way to power level, besides solo ops?
nope
No, but they are changing the scaling at the upper levels if that's your issue
k1 hive or caldera eliksni
no, i just need to hit 200 asap so i can get back to raiding
pinn ops are also good if you have a good team
Technically you can start raiding now if you join a team with some 200+ since Fireteam Scaling still exists
intresting, i didnt know scaling was a thing
well for raids
Added back in TFS, it will scale you to -5 below the highest person in the team
ah, that would explain why i didnt know that. stopped playing during that period
I been using that to help friends of mine early complete guardian rank stuff.
has the whisper been dethroned for boss dps yet?
Yes, many times over haha
It's been Lord of Wolves for months, we're finally getting a nerf to it with this patch
how in gods green earth did LoW become meta??
It does big damage
It was fun while it lasted
It's still good against champs and things, just 20% less damage
Still Hunt was much better than Whisper during TFS / SE, but it's been nerfed a few times and is now just a solid "okay"
dammit
I used mine for infusion fodder after its last nerf ngl
infusion fodder?
I infused it into a legendary
i meant in exotics
im still sticking with my apex, unless its been nerfed into the ground
Apex is trash now
dammit
LoW for burst, Outbreak Perfected or Thunderlord for longer phases thanks to super gen
It's still decent, but there are better options
i heard outbreak is broken, i gotta try setting it up
yeah i know, i think i was grinding for briars before i left? but aslong as its decent i should be fine
Linears were good last season because of the artifact, they're pretty mediocre compared to Hezen or Outrageous though
how do i get those two?
Hezen is easily farmable from VoG, Outrageous drops from Pinnacle Ops (also easy to obtain)
noted
I’m watching the live stream right now. Are they advertising stuff that is dropping in an hour or with renegades in December?
I’m so confused.
Renegades in December
THE VEX SET FROM UNDYING
edge skull mask
yea im saying im excited to get a vex set from undying cuz of the seasonal archive
so with renegades if i brought edge of fate will i have to buy it like is it a dlc or an update?
Edge of Fate was a DLC, Renegades is also a DLC. If you bought the Year of Prophecy bundle, you get both. If you only bought Edge of Fate, you'll have to buy Renegades seperately
i got yop ult edition
Then you don't need to worry about purchasing anything else, everything they're showing you'll have access to
Oh yeah i forgot I bought ultimate edition
i assume you mean eof yop ult edition right? cause obviously regegades isnt able to be brought yet
Year of Prophecy includes Renegades, you've already bought it
ok thanks
Yay
Is D2 undergoing maintenance? Im checking for update, but i’m not getting anything.
Thank you
What time can I do the update for the actual game?
guys im watching the stream rn but i missed the "enchance legendary weapons tiers in shadow and order"
what does that mean?
Whenever your service will let you, but usually it's avalible once the servers come back up
You can upgrade Tier 1 weapons to Tier 5
More details coming later
my stream is lagging and i think i missed the non crital part, what is that?
They're just changing how they're implementing buffs/nerfs
oh k
thx btw
did they say anything about the seasonal archive yet?
No, everything discussed up until now has been for Renegades. We're just now starting the Ash & Iron section
<1 minute
Whats the emblem called from the bungie stream?
knights of old
ah okay cool thanks
Obtained as a Twitch Drop for watching 15 minutes durning the Renegades Dev Stream taking place on 2025-09-09 at 9AM PT. Watch at twitch.tv/Bungie.
ugly ahhh emblem
default solar emblem better
when can we play desteny 2 now?
It should be available now
As soon as your game updates
Try closing and reopening Steam
we need to update the game?
Yes
is the patch out yet?
yes ive checked its not letting me download the update it says the final version is installed after i restarted my console
nvm its good now
so can we play destney 2 now???
#🟩server-status🟩 Read
Literacy at an all time low
donjon is my all time favorite
So, are we getting any power improvements for Ash and Iron or is it the same boring grind till December? I'm 382 power atm and I'm itching for some T5s
having to tell people to read a channel which would obviously answer their question is too much work apparently
We've gotten some small updates today, but nothing that'll likely be significant for you being under 400
Most of the updates are to make 400+ less awful.
And some small updates to make fireteam ops less of a risk of wasting your time.
I just want my Tier 5s man 😭
Well get to 500, then.
Thought they dropped at 400+
T5s weren't guaranteed until like 450 before
So to even have a chance at T5s I need to be 500 power or is it still a chance at 450?
You have a chance starting at 400, as Prime Engrams are always 1 Tier higher than your highest Portal reward Tier
Why must the update Js come out now. I need to know if romantic death & folded root is good
And remind me where primes drop from now? I've been very on and off Destiny since EoF
Oh I don’t even have the pass
They drop randomly from all portal ops
Joyous days
5
So the power cap is 550 now right?
Unstable Core costs are going to start to get really fuckin bad
did they release the previous season reclaim stuff?
As in it's in the new seasonal archive? No
Like it wasnt before, crikey
where’s it at ? I have searched everywhere lol.
some people were demanding they were fine
Is Season of Reclamation in that?
oh my god🤦🏽 i’m utterly blind.
I thought it was up to Heresy?
Nope
not yet
Deadass?
Also because we're literally in Reclamation right now still
also, huh, i thought that was getting added in renegades
yeah
No way
whens the next iron banner?
They haven't said yet (unless they announced it on the stream). Most likely we'll hear about it in this week's TWID
Was the light level reset?
no
Thats just a lie😂 i havent even hit 300 yet, I've been grinding like crazy and I got very little
where did my star wars ornaments go?
Thank goodness no
But i heard rank will be? Like by 5 or 6
Pre-order bonuses go to the Special Deliveries kiosk by Rahool
Its supposed to reset every season no?
It's not a new season
It's still Reclamation
Just a new battle pass
Battle pass =/= Season
oh so my armor ornaments which i had before just got reset to the deliveries kiosk
Typical bungo 😂
same amount of season passes per year though sooo
hi all, can y someone help me out please?
if I have avant -garde on, it allows me to go in, so it's not the gear.. if I set the automatic weapons restriction, it doesn't allow me to go in
and I have an smg-autorifle-machine gun equipped
Best bet is choir isn't counting for whatever reason
Are featured raid/dungeons back?
but if I have avant-garde on, that is restricvting " new weapons only" and it allows me to go in with choir 😄
wait what that mod is fuckibg terrible wtf
Get an Ahab Char to test or something
The issue isn't Choir with Avant, it's potentially Choir with Auto
No
did,that, didn't work
AFAIK they'e given no indication of it
Try other slots then
Swap your SMG and LMG and see if that does anything
also, swapped choir out, with full new eqipment, only new gear, only new guns/ armor, did not work also
did that also 😄
Otherwise you'll need to write up a bug report on Bungie's official forums
Then report the bug in bungie.net's forums
yeah am gonna do that, thanks guys
Have they upped general prime drops at 500+? I saw they have for crucible.
my star wars preorder is gone gone. i had it at edge of fate release and now its gone
They likely broke something, so you'll want to report it in bungie.net's help forums
the reward pass ship also has the name and lore of the renegades ship 
made a post about it to the subreddit, literal first response i got
if anyone has 50k unstable cores sitting around then they're just either not using them or their vault is at 0/700
?? ive been sitting at like 80k its not bad
you're not using them then
i am tho
you are objectively not
I have like 600k sitting around and I use them often
they are obscenely problematic
i'm 416
yeah so barely higher
and not even half my vault is infused
and my vault isn't even massively full like some people's lmao
i'm at about 400-ish out of 700 in my vault
yeah thats why you dont need EVERY weapon at ur max power
the only place it matters is portal really
how many weapons are you realistically using in portal
portal is basically the only thing that does matter though, and that's the problem
are you really using all 700 weapons in light locked activities tho
exactly
some people like to use more than the same 10 pieces of gear for all their playtime jsyk
yeah theres a difference between 10 and 700
😭
if ur power levelling stuff you dont use in portal then you are the problem
?????
also i literally said i don't have my vault full tf are you on about
i said i'm at 400-ish can you read
unstable core econ is not an issue man
you can't tell me to my face that i shouldn't be allowed to hop around and use all sorts of different gear that i have
nor can you say that it's invalid to wanna use lots of different stuff
ok so you seriously use all 400 of the weapons in the vault and take them all in turns like kids at a playground?
thats on you then
how can you sit here and just advocate for a system that literally is objectively worse than how things used to be?
can you hear yourself?
you're just like "yea just having a whole extra currency required for infusing is fine"
Y'all this has spun way beyond the purview of #❓destiny-questions
but what if it wasn't there?
the portal and pl system is an issue the cores arent the issue tho
whatever man
what day is iron banner
Unless the amoubt of unstable cores required to upgrade gear goes up exponentially or something, I had plenty of them after only showing up 2 weeks ago and finding every last gun in my vault was at light ten. You can get literally dozens of them from scrapping any new gear you dont like.
Iron Banner is a week-long event so the fact that it's not active means it's not this week's
or did i miss smth
Almost certainly to indicate it's seasonal
aight
what? really? that would be cool for me but i wonder what the point of getting tier 5s from trials would be. maybe theyll bring back adept and timelost stuff
was the cyborg nemesis set disabled for some reason? I logged on a few minutes ago and it's still in my collections but not in my armor tabs or overall appearance customization. it's still applied to a head piece i have on but idk if it would have been fully removed from existing pieces or just hidden from menus if it were disabled for a bug or something
The preorder sets randomly vanished today, so it's likely something they accidentally broke
I own the year of prophecy ultimate edition and finished last battle pass but dont own this one
Are you gamesharing?
No i own it
Screenshot the in-game store tab and the reward pass page
Does anybody else die when going to the next stage in the new activity?
Yep
Something happened to my dark side legend ornaments it disappeared
Is that supposed to happen
Extraodrinairly unlikely
Really lol weird I still have the sniper rifle
How do we get new axe.
Any workaround?
Revive? It doesn't count against your limited
Sun's apex cloak is missing pretty much the entire cape (at least in appearance customization view) so i'd say they definitely scuffed something
Where do you find the old season passes?
Tower
ah bit funky
And to be 100% clear, you have not made anyone else's Xbox your home Xbox?
No i give it to my friend but dont receive
...does your friend play Destiny 2?
Sometimes, but i purchased it on my account so that doesnt matter
It 100% does
First account to log in gets the season pass when you're gamesharing
So your friend has it
No he hasnt logged jn
In
Also thats not how it works since iv been gamesharing him d2 since its release and iv gotten every battlepass besides this one
You've logged in before him every time. Most likely this season's pass got triggered as owned before today. I can guarantee you that your friend has the current pass
So I saved a bunch of season challenges but now I cant redeem them
Dam
I can't and my mate also died so we had to leave
I did not see that lmao
Then no. report the bug in bungie's help forums
I bought one of those old seasons, how do I get more of those coins ?
