❓destiny-questions

[lyric spear]

yes

[fathom marten]

Easy thing to try would be to get them to just fast travel to one of the nodes in the Tower and walk back to see if that fixes it

[lyric spear]

theyve done that and it didnt work

[fathom marten]

From the Known Issues page: "Players experiencing issues meditating at Ikora to unlock additional subclass options should check if they have acquired the "Exotic Subclass" quests, and try abandoning those."

[lyric spear]

10-4

[sonic moat]

holy shit! You got TWO new people to join the game!??

actual witchcraft, nice work

[lyric spear]

yeah,i work with streamers who are new to the game

well,ones been around since like 2020 but didnt take it seriously till now,the other joined in March

so hes new new

[sonic moat]

hope they enjoy!!

[lyric spear]

they love the game

[sonic moat]

thats awesome

girl really did work some magic here damn!

[lyric spear]

i have a few new lights actually

its just those two are my main two

[sonic moat]

real life D2 shepherd

[lyric spear]

yup,im their main shepherd

[fathom marten]

Did abandoning the quest work?

[lyric spear]

idk,neither are online or getting back to me

[high lily]

the teleported to the annex and walked back up?

[lyric spear]

nah,doesnt work

[cerulean sail]

from orbit?

[lyric spear]

done it numerous times,even on different days,nothing works

[lyric spear]

nope

[cerulean sail]

try that

[visual wyvern]

False info, doing this let nexius hack my account and delete my god roll boondoggle!

[lyric spear]

we've done that before and it didnt work

[cerulean sail]

it's over...

[fathom marten]

Well, if deleting the quest doesn't work and none of the other ideas have worked, it might be bug report time :/

[lyric spear]

yeah :/

i think they went to bed(theyre both three hours behind me) so ill ask tomorrow about it

[boreal patio]

my friend had the same problem, we did a full dungeon run and he was able to meditate afterwards

im thinking it has to do something with activity completion before u can for some odd reason

[lyric spear]

we've done raid,fireteam ops,supremacy,PM's and other shit before doing it and it still didnt work

we did two raids before Jamie went to meditate and it didnt work 💀

[spiral terrace]

which one of these should I get?

I mostly play PvP but I already have dragon's shadow, lucky pants, etc and I lack good pve exotics besides celestial night hawk and young ahakara (neither of which I have a build for)

Bakris seems good for both but stasis feels weak and and I lack a lot of pve weapons to use with bakris (maybe I can use tresspasser?)

athyr's embrace seems fun for pvp but not that great when I am trying to get good scores for higher power. It also seems pretty useless in pve

Omnioculus seems good for pve and I have good exotic weapons pairing for it, but I also have graviton forfeit. Plus I havent seen anyone run it in pvp in a while

Star eater scales is just the last of the ones i dont own that are available

[boreal patio]

lucky pants and nighthawk are meta for pve, out of the 4 exotics you have ss id get bakris for pvp stuff

omni fell off bc were so strong group invis isnt that helpful and nighthawk 1 shot > star eaters

[spiral terrace]

Any good bakris builds for both pvp and pve?

[spiral terrace]

Does the fact that I don't have prismatics change this?

[drifting plinth]

no

[sonic moat]

So yall, how's Sunbracers nowadays?

[spiral terrace]

I see a lot of people running nothing manacles over sunbracers nowadays

[sonic moat]

problem is

that shit aint solar

also I should've probably specified, im looking for something for solar lol

my bad

[deep fjord]

I bought the ultimate edition and the collection, how do I collect the items that come with it?

[fathom marten]

Find the Special Rewards kiosk in the Tower. Should be a blueish box on a wall near a set of stairs by Master Rahool.

Some items from it will go to the Inventory section of your character screen and need to be opened, namely the cosmetic ornaments that will appear on the bottom page of the inventory

[deep fjord]

omg tysm, do you know if I should collect them when I'm starting or later? or does it not matter

[fathom marten]

They will stay there until you grab them

The cosmetics will require you to finish a quest from Ada-1 in the Tower to put on but the rest should be readily available for you to use whenever you feel like it.

[spiral terrace]

how do i get trinity ghoul?

[turbid talon]

Pretty sure it's simply a World Drop from any Exotic Engram. I don't recall whether it needs the Forsaken Pack or not, though.

You remember, @high lily?

jesus that name

[spiral terrace]

I was wondering if I could focus enegram like with armor

[high lily]

requires forsaken

[turbid talon]

Not for weapons, but until you've exhausted the loot pool, Exotic Engrams work on a knockout system - you will not get the same loot twice until you've received everything.
Once you've exhausted the pool, you'll get armour repeats (but not weapon repeats, since they're static).

Keep an eye on Xur, though.

[high lily]

and if xur sells it (he has in the past) it will also require forsaken

[spiral terrace]

Ah, I though weapons also got repeats. Should i buy more engrams from xur then?

[turbid talon]

Always a good idea if you haven't hit the repeat wall, yeah.
Actually, it's a good idea even then, since the armour you get will have random stats.

[strong garnet]

Did they change it so you can repeat a raid and get the rewards more than once a week?

[high lily]

while ago yea

same for dungeons

[strong garnet]

So I could theoretically sit here today and do vog 12 times and have 12 chances of vex

[high lily]

except you cant farm the exotic from the newest raid and dungeon, being Whirling from Desert and Heirloom from Equilibrium

[high lily]

yes

[strong garnet]

[boreal ore]

Does anybody know of any auto rifles or smgs that come with destabilizing rounds and repulsor brace together that I can farm?

[strong garnet]

Reckless oracle and age old bond appear to be the only two from what I can gather?

Age old bond seems to be from the last wish, while reckless oracle seems to be from garden of salvation.

[boreal ore]

Thank you!

And no smgs I’m guessing?

I know of Shayuras wrath from a couple seasons ago and the updated recluse but neither of them can be farmed currently

[strong garnet]

I looked on light.gg and couldn't see any smg that had both

Oh my bad that was craftable weapons

Shayura's wrath is a void smg that can have them both.

Oh you just mentioned htat

Reghusk's pledge

The title

The riposte

https://www.light.gg/db/items/776531651/repulsor-brace/ You can go through this and check every smg and auto rifle for if they can get both

Should show on the popular trait combos

[glad crag]

We don’t obey Popular Traits here

Popular to them just means it’s what people have, doesn’t mean they have it because it’s good

[strong garnet]

I'm just helping my mans find weapons with the two traits

[glad crag]

Ah

[high lily]

fyi primary weapons (especially smgs and auto rifles) are going to feel even weaker without a damage perk compared to having one

[boreal ore]

Yeah I know, I just love that perk combo.

But thank you guys I’ll try and farm for these the best I can

I currently have a pulse rifle with repulsor and destabilizing

[strong garnet]

It's not here?

[true ridge]

hey how come my in game vc is broken

i can talk and i hear my game audio but no vc audio

i see others talking

fixed it... windows/xbox game settings in windowskey+g

[sand blade]

anyone know how to power level in destiny 2 now?

[little pewter]

if you dont own renegades: Portal activities, high difficulty and A rank, preferably those with green engrams on them as bonus rewards

[sand blade]

would crucible work?

[sudden egret]

In portal, yes

[little pewter]

everything in the portal will.

[onyx lantern]

what’s the lowest difficulty I can farm encore to get the parts and catalysts for choir

[drifting plinth]

master iirc

[willow estuary]

sry to ask the question that has been asked 1 million times, what are the current power caps?

[drifting plinth]

10 is floor, 300 is techincally softcap(really, it's the floor cause stuff cant drop below 300 at all), 550 is cap

[willow estuary]

tyty

[honest charm]

When is iron banner?

[fathom marten]

April 14

1700 UTC

[strong garnet]

What is this?

[fathom marten]

Probably a question for #📚lore-discussion. Serves no function in-game afaik

[strong garnet]

Alright

[nocturne shore]

Trying to learn glaives. They benefit from melee stat right?

[calm crane]

Yes

[sudden egret]

the glaive melee does

the projectile does not

[nocturne shore]

thanks

[copper apex]

does altars drop medals?

[violet cypress]

Hi can someone help me do the REPORT ALTAR-REFLECT mission , it is a bug where you can’t go past a part because a boss won’t attack , and people can bypass it with a hunter by using a grapple or something , if you know please let me know

[heavy shuttle]

how do you get malfeasance quest done if not a single soul plays gambit anymore

[sudden egret]

try on the weekend when more people are playing

[nimble gull]

...? can we not verify sms numbers with bungee? how am i to get to do raids?

did they pull the plug on destiny2?

[tulip oar]

Try a different browser and if it's still failing, report the issue in Bungie's help forums. Otherwise, the only way to bypass the need for SMS verification is to buy an expansion

[nimble gull]

my buddy gifted me 2 expansions and its still giving me this hassle, im trying to verify now as a last ditch effort...

[tulip oar]

Which expansions?

[nimble gull]

witch queen and uhhh

forsaken pack

[tulip oar]

So Forsaken Pack isn't an expansion (as indicated by it having Pack in its name). Witch Queen should count, though. When you go to the DLC section of the in-game store, it lists Witch Queen as owned?

[nimble gull]

ye

[tulip oar]

Specifically the in-game store, not Steam's DLC page

[tulip oar]

And you were gifted these before you logged in currently?

[nimble gull]

yep, bout a week ago

and googleing my issue, i see a fourm post about it being broken, back in febuary

no mention of fixed or anything since

[waxen ibex]

turn off your adblock

it breaks the javascript on bungie's site

[nimble gull]

(i swear to god if thats what it is...)

https://www.bungie.net/pt/Forums/Post/265171509?sort=0&page=0

[nimble gull]

mmm nope, didnt work

[waxen ibex]

try a support ticket then, owning witch queen should be enough

[nimble gull]

i tried my other browser too, still not workin

[fathom marten]

Is it possible that the screen is just a "fear of missing out" page? Like, it's telling you connect a number because it sees you don't have one set up but you don't actually need it anymore because you own an expansion? Try launching a raid or something and see if it'll let you.

[nimble gull]

it wont let me launch a raid

funny thing is, pvp is completely unblocked and it says on the website i need a number to do that too

[tulip oar]

Trials of Osiris and Iron Banner require it

The rest of PVP doesn't

[drifting plinth]

trials, ib and comp iirc

[sly tide]

how the hell do i get past this wall in kepler? trying to do the campaign

[grim topaz]

Ngl, man, the screenshot isn't enough to go off of.

[fathom marten]

Gotta find a pillar somewhere nearby with Mattermorph

Should look like this

[sly tide]

theres one behind it, but i need mattermorph in the first place

[grim topaz]

Then you're probably meant to take a different path.

[sly tide]

hmm

went arround and got to it, thank you

[hybrid harbor]

Hey guys im wondering how to get strange coins fast

[boreal patio]

rushdown custom/private is great

need a group tho

[hybrid harbor]

Ok it just i want a. Specific roll for the exotic class item

[frozen siren]

How do you actually make progress for Podium Terminus?

Completing Supremacy with a rating of B or higher doesn't seem to work

[sudden egret]

Might need to do rushdown

[sonic moat]

yall whats the best catalyst for Wolfsbane?

[calm crane]

Att orbs

[shadow magnet]

when’s gg end

[fathom marten]

April 14

And Iron Banner will immediately start after it ends

[sonic moat]

yall are the old Legendary/master lost sectors still around? If if they are, are they good for anything?

[fathom marten]

Exotic engrams and that's about it

There's a least one lost sector per destination that has them that is "featured" for a day, meaning that it's has the legendary option available for it. There is a list of them in #infographics or you can just look for the symbol on any of the relevant destinations.

[sonic moat]

oh so they drop closed engrams now?

that could be useful for focused decrypting

thanks

[fathom marten]

Yep, they're really only useful for exactly that purpose

[next kettle]

I just started playing. I finished renegade and I’m around 360 light. How in the world do I get better light the fastest way?

[sudden egret]

Portal activities with bonus drops

[next kettle]

That’s what I’ve been doing but ive seen people get 2-3 bonus drops per activity. All mine only have 1. Do you know why?

[sudden egret]

Bonus drops are the green engrams

They stack up to 3 when doing other activities

[next kettle]

What do you mean they stack? I know they are the green engrams but I’m only getting one bonus while others are getting three

[sudden egret]

Does the activity show 3 green engrams or 1? If you do other activities, it will add more engrams to that activity.

Up to 3

also, stay away from quickplay if you are trying to level up

[boreal ore]

How can I get revision zero?

[fathom marten]

Seraph's Shield mission, either in the portal or the legends node in the Director

[boreal ore]

I don’t see that mission anywhere. I see loads of others but not that one.

[fathom marten]

It would be under Pinnacle Ops in the portal

[boreal ore]

Yeah it’s not in there which is weird.

[sudden egret]

that exotic mission isn't in portal

you'll have to wait for it to be featured in legends node as it only features one exotic mission a week

[fathom marten]

It isn't?

[fathom marten]

Well, since it apparently isn't in the portal (and it's one of the only exotic missions like this), you're going to just have to wait for it to appear in the Legends node unfortunately. It should next appear the week of May 12

I did my math wrong :/

The missions in the Legends node are on a set rotation. Next week, aka tomorrow, it's Starcrossed > Encore > Kell's Fall > Presage > Vox Obscura > Operation: Seraph's Shield.

[crimson lark]

whats a good runner up for the smoke jumper set

i have the full ferropotent set

[brave canyon]

Probably aion adapter

[crimson lark]

where do i get them?

[brave canyon]

Mythic Kepler

[crimson lark]

im at 75 strength and im supposed to be hitting 200 and i have mostly everything for the build but i dont seem to be increasing

[brave canyon]

What tier armor do you use

[crimson lark]

how do i check the teir?

im new so im learning

[high lily]

the squares below the season icon on armor

also armor archetypes matter

you want Paragon for high melee

[crimson lark]

the gold things

like diamonds?

[brave canyon]

Ya so you have T3’s you’re gonna want all T5 and probably paragon and brawler armor

[crimson lark]

u think so cause im supposed to be this hammer throwing tanky build

[brave canyon]

Ya that’s exactly what you’d run for that gang

Both of those archetypes spike in melee

[crimson lark]

ok where do i get those

[brave canyon]

Anywhere

It’s RNG what archetype you get

[crimson lark]

how do i know what archetype i get?

[sudden egret]

it's next to the power level

[crimson lark]

ah i see it thanks so much

on my wormgod caress i got granader is there a way to redo the quest that got me the arm or am i stuck with it

[brave canyon]

Just have to get a different roll from engrams or drops

You can’t change what you have currently tho

[crimson lark]

no im saying can i redo the quest that got me the arm

cause i got it from some quest

[brave canyon]

No

[crimson lark]

ok so is there a diffrent way to farm them?

[brave canyon]

You can focus exotics at rahool

[crimson lark]

where is that

[brave canyon]

The cryptarch

In the tower

[crimson lark]

ok thanks

[dry estuary]

how do i get banner of war and fletchette strand aspects?

[sudden egret]

finish unfinished business and parting the veil quests first

[dry estuary]

thanks

[queen mesa]

Hey, how would i get the bow Under Your Skin nowadays

[sudden egret]

Vox Obscura exotic mission when it's featured in legends

[queen mesa]

Thank you

[fathom marten]

Which will be the week of May 5th

[midnight herald]

any way to get the black shader?

and if so, where can i get it

[fathom marten]

Superblack? It is currently unavailable. Bungie may have plans to have it return at some point in the future but they have not said much more on it.

[midnight herald]

hmm, do you know if there is anything similar?

[high lily]

Erebos Glance iirc

better black than superblack

[midnight herald]

thank you, do you know where i can get it?

[high lily]

Eververse

[midnight herald]

tyty

[cerulean sail]

it shows up from time to time in the bright dust store, maybe the most common black shader if you don't mind a bit of orange on some armor pieces

[midnight herald]

ty for clarifying goat

[quartz sun]

jacarina can sometimes end up all black

and you can check these things on eververse calendar or smthn

[kindred zodiac]

Good morning if I start playing destiny 2 right now can I complete the guardian games before the 14th

[high lily]

yes

[lucid palm]

how often can you repeat the ascendant challenge? i know you cant go back in again right after completing it, do you go back to orbit and return or is it daily/weekly?

[pearl ferry]

Does anyone know how to farm the Memory Vestige: Light? I keep doing cysts but there's no glowing enemies

[lucid palm]

are you doing the cysts as part of the micah quests or on their own? because i believe they dont spawn in the latter case

[unborn olive]

Recently got back into destiny about 1-2 days ago. Havent played since the end of Final Shape (never bought the DLC for that expansion either). If some1 can DM me / help me understand all this new stuff that would be nice

[quartz sun]

you didn't really miss anything

we have heat weapons and light saber now

and thats about it

[fathom marten]

@pearl ferry ^

[vestal carbon]

does each planet in the lawless frontier drop a different colored crystal?

[fathom marten]

Yes

Mars is orange, Venus is magenta, and Europa is indigo

[vestal carbon]

sweet thanks!

[reef birch]

I want to start playing d2 again last played in the final shape and hoping to find some people who i can join learing and having fun

[sudden egret]

I would look for a teaching clan in #clan-recruitment

[sly tide]

whats the best roll zavala has for monody-44?

also how do i get that tier 5 mint retrograde?

[fathom marten]

Unless you're in an active clan, you wait until June 9

The only way to currently obtain Mint Retrograde is by completing any Pinnacle Ops activity or Raid with a majority of your fireteam being from your clan. Solo does not count. By doing this, you can receive the Pinnacle Ops and Raid clan engrams from Hawthorne, which has a chance of dropping Mint Retrograde. You get two chances per week per account with one engram per activity.

[sly tide]

mmmmmmmmm okay

[spiral terrace]

i forgot to pick up the catalyst for dmt at the chest at the end. Should I run a normal again or master

[sudden egret]

Should be automatic unless you left early

But master drops the catalysts.

[spiral terrace]

I left before looting the chest at the end

[sudden egret]

Back to master then

[novel geyser]

Salut ya des francais qui peuvent maider ?? Je suis un peut perdue 🙂

[drifting plinth]

rule 9

only english

[novel geyser]

Wooww we have a big brain here. So i need google traduction to use this server ????

Je suis francais et jai besoin d'aide svp

[sudden egret]

if you don't speak english, yes

[novel geyser]

Alors donner moi un serveur francais

[sudden egret]

[jaunty quiver]

can i just use the class item ornament to get the gg quest done??

[sudden egret]

no

[jaunty quiver]

fuck

[sudden egret]

rushdown gives you more

[novel geyser]

Big help giys big helps. Dam i hate gamers community

[solemn zodiac]

you can just find major servers under the discover tab

they cannot help further because you can't link discord servers in this discord

but there is one, and it is called destiny france

and since they don't speak french, they can't understand you asking for a french destiny discord server in french

[novel geyser]

And no one know how to settle a bots for translation ???

[solemn zodiac]

well, they do, but this is an english server

it is generally understood people who come here can speak english

again, if you want a big french discord server, there is one

I guess I could talk about the absolutely humongous price a bot giving access to free translations for atm 180k people would cost, but hey

[novel geyser]

Anyways. My question is im lvl 5 into progression amd cannot understand how to stunt champ with barrier. Can someone explain me how i will use google translate to understand

[solemn zodiac]

;champs

[solar jasper]

How To: Champions
There are 3 kinds of champions:
• Barrier: Create a shield that can only be pierced by anti-barrier weapons, and also heal after a small delay while the shield is up.
• Overload: Teleport frequently and regenerate health very quickly if not stunned or suppressed.
• Unstoppable: Take significantly reduced damage and continue to pursue targets if not stunned.

Stunning Champions: Champions can be stunned by Seasonal Artifact Mods, Subclass Effects, and Exotics with Intrinsic Stuns. You can view a quick summary of these by hovering over the 3 champion symbols to the right of your weapons in your character screen.

For more information, check out the guides below:
• Court's X Page (has various infographics such as the one in the top right)
• Datto's Champion Guide (Video)
• Reddit | Gamespot

[solemn zodiac]

this should help

the linked infographic has an updated list of every way you can stun champions, with images to boot

[novel geyser]

How i can find those weapons who can stunt champ. I been stuck for 2 days with this quest

[solemn zodiac]

for the legendary weapons kinda anywhere. for exotics it depends on which it is, but a solid chunk is either dropped through world dropped exotic engrams, or from the vault of lost lights

[novel geyser]

Ok for the exotic i spotted one but indo need a golden engramms. Each time i got one it got transform into something i don't need. How to select the one i need. Like how to keep the golden engramms to use it for the weapon i need

[solemn zodiac]

from either lost sectors or the season pass I believe. The ones that will drop from the world will always transform into a random exotic (in the case of weapons, one you don't have)

it is likely your best bet is to just find a legendary weapon with an artifact mod that fits the champion you need to stun and run with this

[novel geyser]

Ok and last question intried to find one but seem cant get my hand on it. Wich atcivitied would give me the best chance to get one

Sorry for the mistake its my friend who writhe at the moment and the keyboard is french on auto

[solemn zodiac]

I'm not 100% sure tbh, if you haven't been dismantling everything you proabbly have a bit of everything in your vault already

banshee might also be selling a little something

[novel geyser]

Good thanks for you're time.

[unborn olive]

I just need help understanding this portal thing along with knowing what’s the fastest way to gain power as of now

[sudden egret]

focus on the activities with the most bonus drops (green engrams)

[unborn olive]

Most of them I cat do at 317 power by myself sadly but I think I’ll just start using lfg again. All of my friends have stopped playing lol

[sudden egret]

you can do the lower difficulties

and top 3 fireteam activities have matchmaking

[fading talon]

Feom where do i get the edge of fate exos? Did the campaign on legendary but it didn't drop anywhere? Heard the exo drop Sound in the final cutscene but its not by the postmaster or at the altar thing on kepplar

[sudden egret]

Is this your first char to do the campaign on legend?

[sonic moat]

Bro im so broke in Glimmer, specially now focusing exotics.

Is there such a thing as a focused Glimmer farm?

[sudden egret]

heroic public events, edz spawns a lot of them

[sonic moat]

well...

time to go back to the begining then huh

[fathom marten]

And also the Ghost mod for it

[fading talon]

Yeah, did it on hunter, didn't get it

[sudden egret]

can you check your triumphs to check if you cleared all missions on legend?

[fading talon]

Did claim them

[sudden egret]

legends forge triumph should give it to you

[fading talon]

After the completion i claimed the triumphs and the triumph with the exotic but dont got it

I am so confused

[sudden egret]

can I get your bungie Id?

[fathom marten]

I do not see it in your collections tab

[fading talon]

songoku3009#0814

I have the triumphs claimed, but its nowhere and in the collections it isn't "found"

[sudden egret]

nothing seems out of place, you could try doing the sieve to earn it again

[fading talon]

Bruh, that sucks lol

Btw when do i start to get rarity 5 consistently?

[high lily]

470 power

for Kepler you need to buy the upgrade from the vendor which requires 450

[fading talon]

Okay, saw that it had to do with guardian rank lvl 9 and 450 but that post was from like 8 months ago

[high lily]

guardian rank was only for increased pinnacle drop chances

it does nothing now

[rare wolf]

Whats the best way to farm uncivil

[visual wyvern]

There’s a weapon box in the tharsis landing zone

[stray dragon]

How much health does templar have post eof?

[drifting plinth]

someone link aegis's endgame analysis here?

[high lily]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_5wtBjRYHHxuF4oJKDb_iOGZs-wTkzB6RYbnyNLbuz4/edit?gid=1346678363#gid=1346678363

basically nothing

[languid cypress]

Im looking for a really good legendary kenetic scout/pulse rifle in the first slot can someone tell me what weapon I should go for?

[quartz sun]

pvp? Pve?

[languid cypress]

Pve

[quartz sun]

nvm

[languid cypress]

mint retrogade you mean?

[fathom marten]

Mint is also nearly impossible to obtain currently

[languid cypress]

Whys that

[quartz sun]

has to be kinetic?

or do you just mean top slot

[languid cypress]

nah just top slot

[fathom marten]

Because it's not longer in the general loot pool. The only way to get it is a semi-convoluted process involving Hawthorne and clans until June 9 when they make it easier to obtain again

[quartz sun]

well ig you would be looking for something with stl then

scouts r kinda cooked

[languid cypress]

nah I just heavily fuck w weapons that can basically do one shot with decent amount of damage

[quartz sun]

what r u using in second slot then

[languid cypress]

depends

choir of one

still hunt

merciless

[quartz sun]

the only scout thats even attainable rn is jurispudent

[languid cypress]

nah doesnt have to be a scout its just my preference

just need to know whats good to use in the first slot

didnt think scouts were that bad

[quartz sun]

rocket pulses are just too good to not be using

top slot is almost always praxic blade or a utility wep

[languid cypress]

i have praxic blade

i just need a grenade launcher shotgun something in the first slot thats useable

legit anything good😭

[quartz sun]

b7 pistol?

[languid cypress]

is that from starwars?

[quartz sun]

yeartide or compact?

[languid cypress]

idek what that means

😭

[quartz sun]

do you got starwars

[languid cypress]

yes

[quartz sun]

im guessing you are on void lock?

[languid cypress]

yup

[fathom marten]

Yeartide Apex is an smg from Solstice last year, Compact Defender is a sidearm from Renegades

[languid cypress]

Ah I see thanks

Is yeartide apex still obtainable?

if so how do you obtain it

[quartz sun]

nah

[fathom marten]

Nope, it's an annual event weapon so it's tied to Solstice

[languid cypress]

Unlucky

[quartz sun]

bungie moment

[fathom marten]

Like the three from Guardian Games are tied to it

[languid cypress]

Ig Ill go for compact or b7 then

[fathom marten]

It'll be back in like August

[languid cypress]

Yikes

[quartz sun]

compact for destab

[fathom marten]

March-May for Guardian Games, August-ish for Solstice, October-November for Festival of the Lost, December-January for Dawning

[quartz sun]

oh wait I forgot abt oxygen sr3

[languid cypress]

what does meganura do

[languid cypress]

what is that website you are using?

Compendium at the top

Under the "Gear Perks" tab

Yes, thank you for your input Jongo

[fathom marten]

Oxygen SR3 should just regularly be in the portal, as long as it's not through Crucible which has a separate loot pool

[quartz sun]

when its the shiny one

save some rng

[sonic moat]

with Choir of One, if I need to kill something a little stronger than a redbar, should I spam ADS precision or hip fire shotty?

[boreal ore]

So in the firing range is there a way to summon a boss AND a red bar enemy at the same time?

[fathom marten]

I do not believe so

[boreal ore]

Shit well I appreciate you letting me know

[jaunty whale]

Use hipfire on large, tough targets that you need dead right now

[versed ferry]

anyone else ran into the bug that prevents you from lighting some of the torches in the tower again?
If so, I know the solution

[fathom marten]

Lighting torches?

[spiral terrace]

how do you get contraverse hold?

[fathom marten]

Follow link above for Exotic Availability List

[spiral terrace]

so completely rng? What does Ikora mean

[fathom marten]

One of the New Light quests from Ikora, specifically the Void one, will give you it. It can drop randomly but it can also be purchased from Master Rahool directly if you own the Forsaken Pack

[quartz sun]

ikora quest gives it as a reward

[fathom marten]

I should probably add the latter to the sheet

[versed ferry]

yeah, for Guardian games

[spiral terrace]

verity's brow or sunbracer?

[true haven]

i want to rebuild my void gyrfalcon hunter, if i go full gunner build should the third stat be grenade or super

[tame hornet]

not a professional but I would probably say super

[weak oriole]

for what

[spiral terrace]

pve

[weak oriole]

damage or adclear

[spiral terrace]

uhhh idk, I mostly do solo runs i think

[weak oriole]

i’d just use sunbracers for now

[broken forge]

sunbracers by a long shot

verity is only really used for one thing, which is atheon due to the buff you get to grenade regen and damage

[high lily]

its not even used for that anymore, weapons deal more damage now

[spiral terrace]

how do i unlock ascension arc aspect. Do i need to buy the dlc

[high lily]

Final Shape, yes

[spiral terrace]

https://mobalytics.gg/destiny-2/builds/hunter/arc/revadike-literal-eraser can i replace ascension with something else and still make this build work?'

[high lily]

this build kinda sucks ngl

use Tempest Strike instead of Ascension
Combo Blow instead of the other melee
Pulse or Storm grenade instead of Flashbang
use the Shock, Resistance, Feedback and Beacons

for weapons, use
something for single target in the kinetic slot, so a sniper, Mint Retrograde or Riptide
Indebted Kindness would be best, but Keraunios and ig Dead Messenger work fine too
for heavy, an eager edge sword for activities where you dont really need boss damage, otherwise Hezen, Parasite, Whirling Ovation, Acrius, Outrageous Fortune or some other Rocket/GL work

i dont know why this build recommends using Better Already instead of Recuperation on the boots, you also dont need Charged Up on your chest piece, use another resist mod

[spiral terrace]

I also found this build https://mobalytics.gg/destiny-2/builds/hunter/arc/itztizzle-raiden-flux-perfected but skipped over it since it didnt seem that interesting

[high lily]

i wouldnt use it

[solemn zodiac]

mind that both these builds are almost a year old, so they might need a bit of reworking

[spiral terrace]

Its hard to find an up to date build as a f2p 😞

[broken forge]

guh, how has verity's gotten powercrept in it's own domain

[brave canyon]

Just buy the DLC

Ngl if you’re trying to do F2P don’t play Hunter because prismatic is just so much better than any of the regular Hunter subclasses

[high lily]

most likely a bug flipped what gets the damage buff

Auger melts Atheon in 2 or 3 bursts lmao

[spiral terrace]

Ig back to warlock

[brave canyon]

Gonna want prismatic for any class tho tbh

Whenever there’s a DLC sale I’d def get them all

This game isn’t really that great F2P you want all the content for builds and exotics

[spiral terrace]

Back to warframe then?

[brave canyon]

Or buy the DLC ?

[spiral terrace]

Buy for me 🥺👉👈

[brave canyon]

Wait for a sale you can get it all for like $30

[hidden linden]

What act I have to do to farm Mint Retrograde?

[calm crane]

U can’t farm it currently

[hidden linden]

... ty for the info, when can I, or what act I have to wait for?

[calm crane]

Should realistically be available again in June

[hidden linden]

oh wow, they really go out of their way to make sure you dont have a reason to play the game, cool

[weak oriole]

u can get it from hawthorn clan engrams

the tier 5 ones specifically

[calm crane]

But just a very small chance

[weak oriole]

there’s like

20 other weapons

[brave canyon]

You had from July to December to play the game to get it. I don’t agree with the soft sunset to the portal loot and I don’t think anyone saw it coming but the issue is going to be corrected.

[hidden linden]

So what other 20 weapons will have the same dps output in the kinetic slot?

[fathom marten]

No, they mean that there is approximately 20 other weapons that Hawthorne can drop instead of Mint Retrograde.

[hidden linden]

oh, got it, ty for the clarification

[glacial hound]

complaining about anything gang

[fathom marten]

You would get two chances per week per account by completing the Pinnacle Ops and Raid clan goals

[glacial hound]

do you think they should keep the same loot pool forever

[hidden linden]

No, u are right, they should change it and make us get new loot with as good or better alternative, like the....

what is the name again of the alternative they have in place until June?

[glacial hound]

conspiracy honed

[hidden linden]

on it!

You trick me.
I don't see one single sniper being used in the list of popular weapons. U know what I see even in the top 5, 2 pulse with micro-missiles

[glacial hound]

so we’re using popularity charts

got it

[calm trail]

Can you not order two pins under the discounted $7.77 flat rate shipping?

Trying to order the Renegades title pin and campaign pin.

Just want to make sure I'm not doing something else wrong with trying to add both to my cart.

[solemn zodiac]

shop seems to be saying no

[tulip oar]

Correct. Each preorder has to be its own order

[languid juniper]

Hey guys! im a returning player after a couple years, im a little lost on what weapons i should be using any advice?

[languid cypress]

what are the top 5 exotic weapons?

[scarlet blaze]

Depends

[glad crag]

Trinity Ghoul, Choir of One, Barrow Dyad, Ergo Sum, and Praxic Blade

[scarlet blaze]

I run
trinity ghoul
Ace of spades
Still hunt
Sunshot
Wolfsbane

[glad crag]

Sunshot, oldie but a goodie

[scarlet blaze]

Yeah broo

[languid cypress]

Im using choir of one rn and I would need a legendary weapon in the first slot which weapon would you recommend?

[glad crag]

You probably dont have Mint Retrograde, so I'll say the current stasis spreadshot handcannon

[high lily]

Choir, Ergo, Praxic Blade, Whirling and Finality's Auger (Tractor for teamplay is also very good)

[boreal patio]

riptide

alh chill clip

[balmy stag]

are the chances to get refurbished a499 lower

[fleet shard]

hi

can somebody tell me what granate launcher I can use to launch in the air

[boreal patio]

gizmoweft, theodolite and mountain top

gizmoweft obtained through current event

[fathom marten]

The exotic grenade launcher Alethonym (available through either of the Monument kiosks in the Tower), or any special grenade launcher with a micro-missile frame:
Theodolite, The Mountaintop, and Gizmo Weft.

Of these, the easiest to obtain would be Alethonym. Theodolite is kind of unobtainable, Gizmo Weft is a rarer drop through the portal, and The Mountaintop is behind Xur on the weekend although there is a lesser version available via the Monument to Lost Lights kiosk.

[boreal patio]

theodolite through hawthrone until june 9tg when itll be easier to get

[fathom marten]

June 9

[fleet shard]

thanks guys 🙂

[balmy stag]

for gizmo just spend your event currency if u dont get it through drops

[knotty phoenix]

Which syndicate should you pick if you need grenadier stuff

[fathom marten]

Armor archetype is more determined by your ghost mod than anything else

[knotty phoenix]

Which mod

[fathom marten]

The one in the third slot called Grenadier

[knotty phoenix]

oh my bad I didn't see it

[fleet shard]

Does anybody know what finisher I can use for statis that launches them away?

[sudden egret]

Statis?

[fleet shard]

this one

sorry english is not my best language

[fathom marten]

When you say "finisher", do you mean [something like] this? If so, all finishers can be used on all subclasses.

[fleet shard]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVlEhoJY-z0 check at 1:15 to 1:20 I basicly want a finisher that launches the boss away

[fathom marten]

That specific finisher would be "Swing of the Scythe" from Season of the Haunted. If you want, you can get it from the Monument to Seasons Past kiosk in the Tower. I can't name any other finishers like that off the top of my head but I'm sure they exist.

[fleet shard]

okay thanks allot do you aswell know what I need to buy from exo to freeze my enemies like he did?

[fathom marten]

Trying to copy them? They're using Cryosthesia 77K from Beyond Light. It's available in the Monument to Lost Lights kiosk in the Tower.

[upper matrix]

The chair finisher launches. Used to kill people back when collision killed people

[high lily]

the build/subclass has nothing to do with the finisher launch

theyre just using stasis because they want to

[fleet shard]

got it

[scarlet blaze]

🤣

[fathom marten]

Rule #5 😔

[scarlet blaze]

Im cooked

[brittle wing]

Mods get that guy

Lock him in gambit for all eternity

[scarlet blaze]

NOOOOO NOT GAMBITT

Havent played that since release

[dark mango]

just ask him in the solo server, it’s .gg/d2soloraids

[fleet shard]

oh it cost silver, do you know if there is any other finisher that can bump her out of the map?

[fathom marten]

Well, there's the chair finisher, "Give 'Em the Chair", coincidentally from the ongoing Guardian Games but that's also behind Silver :/ I think a better person to ask would be the person you're copying because they'd know other options

[fleet shard]

okay thanks for the help

[sudden egret]

All finishers cost silver or are on the paid season pass track

[fleet shard]

is there a way to get silver cheaper on 3rd party sites?

[sudden egret]

Nope

[high lily]

also against tos

[queen raft]

i just got back into d2, im probably gonna get the renegades expansion but i also missed the edge of fate. is it worth getting both expansions? like what am i missing out on if i dont get the edge of fate

[sudden egret]

Mostly for the raid and raid loot

[queen raft]

are the raid drops meta?

[sudden egret]

They have some meta weapons but you can get by without

[high lily]

the exotic is very good and some of the raid weapons are good too

[high lily]

also pretty sure Year of Prophecy is on sale for the price of 1 expansion

[languid sable]

Is now too late to start playing destiny?

On humble bumble the DLCs are selling in bundles

Wondering if it’s worth playing

Only £9 for like 7 DLCs

[high lily]

no

[languid sable]

I’ve heard that I need to purchase the DLCs to play properly though

But there is a shit ton

Where would you start in the cheapest way?

[high lily]

humble bundle like you said

[fathom marten]

Humble Bundle and Green Man Gaming are generally the cheapest options

[high lily]

and also legit sellers

[fathom marten]

Steam itself also has a lot of sales. Consoles less so.

[languid sable]

Would you recommend the 8 or 3 pack?

Im not sure on the worth of the said DLCs

[high lily]

8 pack is definitely worth

[languid sable]

Alrighty

And then just play the game and learn myself or watch a shit ton of guides and meta videos?

[high lily]

play and learn for yourself, most meta videos are just clickbait garbage so if you have any questions just come here or #📘pve-playbook
or for weapon roll questions #💎shard-it-keep-it

[languid sable]

Thank you!

[kindred tree]

Why is there a difficulty setting for the shooting range

[sudden egret]

So you can apply modifiers, why bungie thinks that’s necessary,

[gaunt radish]

I just purchased the legacy collection for $8 on greenmangaming a couple weeks ago and just saw the humblebundle that came out today that includes everything including the year of prophecy ultimate edition for $28. Would it be worth buying this bundle just for the renegades and edge of fate even though I have everything else in it?

[fathom marten]

Year of Prophecy only includes Renegades and Edge of Fate as expansions

[mental thorn]

how do I unlock Europan Explorer II quest

[cerulean sail]

year of prophecy includes the 4 rewards passes as well

[rain gate]

Does the 10 power thing not matter in cross saves

[rancid tundra]

wdym?

power level as a whole doesnt really matter, its pretty easy to get it

[rain gate]

Im just a bit confused cause it used to be like 550 or smth in 2022

i havent even played the campaigns yet on either run.. i mean i cant just choose a 2026 start over a 2022 one (i can play them now thats why)

[sudden egret]

everyone got reset to power 10 when edge of fate came out

[rain gate]

I also watched byf for like 5 hours and stopped to play myself cause i feel like itll spoil shadowkeep onward fr

[sudden egret]

power level doesn't matter much tho so I wouldn't fret over it

[rancid tundra]

Yea, endgame pve and trials are like the only time you actually need light level

Outside of just getting gear

[sonic moat]

Is the All or Nothing pulse rifle any good?

[brave canyon]

Not really

[waxen ibex]

Eof reset the entire power scale, all old content is considered as being below 10 power

[odd notch]

doing renegade quest rn, someone know why i cant launch here?

[fathom marten]

Because it's two different destinations

[cerulean sail]

don't launch from this screen

ever

[fathom marten]

Launching from the quest page should be a back up to launching from the Director or I guess the portal

[sonic moat]

Can someone teach me how to use Wolfsbane properly?

How the hell exactly do I build up nano assult? Im doing lights and sometimes it doesnt go up at all

[true haven]

one question, sometimes i get tier 4 armor which has 75 stat, which is as much as tier 5, so what s different between these two

[sudden egret]

tier 5 has a tuning mod, +5/-5 to one random stat or +3 to the other 3 stats

[keen vapor]

Why can't I use the triple laurette in crucible? It grays it out and won't let me swap to it

[sudden egret]

as long as overclock isn't active, you should be building nano assult on hits

[sudden egret]

https://x.com/Destiny2Team/status/2042016959928123555

Destiny 2 Team (@Destiny2Team)

The team is investigating an issue where the Triple Laureate Hand Cannon's sound effects are not playing when used. To prevent an unfair advantage, the weapon has been temporarily disabled in Crucible activities.

X · Apr 8, 2026, 11:09 PM

[sonic moat]

yeah so i tested in the shooting range

its not on hits

its when the nanites pop

then the charge builds up

[sudden egret]

light attacks spawn nanites so...

[sonic moat]

misleading

misworded

false advertising

[fathom marten]

3 nanites spawn every three [light] attacks or on kill

[odd notch]

i need help, just came back to the game, played often years ago have a good vault (ca 600 items) what are some nice warlock builds rn for pve?

[sudden egret]

Getaway on prismatic is the most common for general play

[fleet shard]

Quick question what is the max power level?

[cerulean sail]

550

[fleet shard]

Oii

Im at 300 will it give me disanvantage in a raid or does it adjust my power level ?

[sudden egret]

Legacy raids power level doesn’t mater and for latest, there’s fireteam power that will boost you up.

[glacial hound]

power level doesnt matter for most stuff

[fleet shard]

Okay good to know ty

[muted ravine]

is this the correct roll for psi

[sudden egret]

Usable roll, shiny + honing is more important.

[muted ravine]

shiny?

[drifting plinth]

accelerated assault origin trait

[cerulean sail]

drops pre-masterworked

idk why that got the shiny terminology but whatever

[high lily]

use the other barrel

[muted ravine]

quick launch?

so the only bad part is the enhanced origin trait

[sudden egret]

no, it's missing the shiny origin trait

it's an additional origin trait that only drops on the shiny version

[muted ravine]

ohhh

is there a chance to have a shiny drop or nah

[sudden egret]

all drops have a chance

[high lily]

only when Psi Aeterna is featured in the weekly vanguard alerts

[muted ravine]

gotcha

[sudden egret]

Unfortunately, last week the vanguard alert was a guarantee shiny psi drop

[muted ravine]

I see what yall mean

my something something has accel assault

[livid cipher]

can you skate with a eager edge wave frame sword?

[drifting plinth]

you cant heavy skate

[sudden egret]

You can only light attack skate with them

[glacial hound]

because shiny=special variant

[cerulean sail]

sure but we've moved on from shiny describing the visually shiny special onslaught ornaments to using it like the pokemon term

[waxen ibex]

I mean if anything this is a return to old terminology

[cerulean sail]

it is?

[waxen ibex]

Back in forsaken there were curated rolls that dropped pre-masterworked and were impossible to random roll

And I heard those get referred to as shiny a lot

They were kinda dummy rare too

Took me like 56 runs to get my nation of beasts

Of 3 runs a week since all loot was weekly locked

[sonic moat]

Are any of these any good?
To someone who can get master raid and dungeon gear and stuff.

[glad crag]

Shotgun for the weapons

I got Recon / Destab

[sudden egret]

Shotty and pulse are good in PvP

[sonic moat]

😭

well thats good

means I wont have to play anymore EoF

[high lily]

the mythic armor is one of the best sets in the game

[sonic moat]

somehow I don't quite believe you...

[glad crag]

I can vouch for it

Even though I dont use it myself

[sudden egret]

jongo doesn't troll, at least not intentionally

[sonic moat]

cmon dude yall messing with me rn

you saying THIS is peak?

[glad crag]

2 piece

4 piece is take or leave

[sudden egret]

theres a lot of aoe damage in this game

[sonic moat]

but what if im not using micro missile?

[glad crag]

Ferro and Smoke exist, so thats why I dont bother with it

[glad crag]

A true fan of freedom

[sudden egret]

it's not just micro missiles, includes rocket pulses

[sonic moat]

me who joined after smoke left

[sonic moat]

yes thats what those are

[sudden egret]

then you should always be using them

unless you got lucky pants on

[glad crag]

this isnt playbook

[visual wyvern]

[glad crag]

we dont need meta-only agendas here

[sudden egret]

we are just saying the aion adapter set is good and worth it

[glad crag]

And I agree it is good

[sudden egret]

and giving reasons why it's good

[brave canyon]

You should be lol

[sonic moat]

wish I had mint, I have Aeterna. But I dont use it always

[glad crag]

Swordmaster is a good replacement for Smoke

[sonic moat]

also I just shrimply can NEVER GET a T5 to drop with these rolls

[brave canyon]

Switch that barrel right meow

[high lily]

rocket pulses, rocket sidearms, rocket launchers, grenade launchers

[sonic moat]

im using Sage cause im addicted to Praxic Blade or Wolfsbane

[brave canyon]

And put on backup mag

Got damn

I’m bout to have a stroke

[glad crag]

acceptable

[high lily]

you never want blast radius for anything in pve

[sudden egret]

geting rocket sidearms is kinda annoying right now outside of the call

[sonic moat]

BETTER?

[high lily]

indebted exists but yea not worth farming until the refresh

yea

[glad crag]

Much

[brave canyon]

No

High velocity rounds

Why did you switch that

It was the only thing right

[brave canyon]

HVR now

[glad crag]

Also not a fan of the shader (jk)

Too glossy

[sonic moat]

whats HVR?

[brave canyon]

High velocity rounds

Your mag perk

You switched to implosion rounds for some reason

[sonic moat]

ygyghhhhughyiasfgdtusarfodyiusaghuodihsa[ods

i just

went through all my builds who had it and changed it all one by one

[brave canyon]

Nobody told you to switch that

[sonic moat]

because loadouts now save PERKS and shit

[sonic moat]

YEAH WELL i may be stupith

[brave canyon]

We told you switch barrel and mod

High velo is like BIS for mag perk on rocket pulses

[glad crag]

I just use whatever gets me the best stats on the roll, and then compare with future rolls

[sonic moat]

done

all changed

[glad crag]

I dont memorize the individual non-perk stuff

[sonic moat]

soooo how does this clan engram thing work?

for a chance at Mint

[high lily]

if you go to the clan screen, theres 4 boxes, 2 of which give a t5 engram that can drop Mint

[sonic moat]

boxes?

[sudden egret]

If you looks like a t5 engram, you can preview what it can drop

[sonic moat]

ahhhh

right

yes those do be boxes

im assuming it comes from the Pinnacle Ops one?

[fathom marten]

^ Pinnacle or Raid

[sonic moat]

mmmmmm

okay thanks :3

[fathom marten]

You've not done Pinnacle Ops because the box is unchecked

[sonic moat]

haha

techsec

dropped

great start

[boreal ore]

What’s the highest difficulty I need to do on the exotic missions to get the catalysts?

[fathom marten]

Master

[boreal ore]

Mmmmm that’s likely not gonna be something I can solo😭

[sonic moat]

it's actually rather easy

dont let the word scare you

[sudden egret]

It’s 2 below hardest difficulty

[fathom marten]

Which mission/weapon are you going for?

[boreal ore]

Ummm oh boy

Dead messenger that’s what it is!

[fathom marten]

Vox Obscura

That one I think can actually be Expert?

I have it written down as such

[boreal ore]

Really? Hmm that’s actually quite helpful to know.

[high lily]

catalysts are master+

weapon is any difficulty iirc

[fathom marten]

What about Seraph's Shield?

[high lily]

not in the portal

[fathom marten]

And therefore?

[boreal ore]

I’m trying to get as many exotic as I can to find what really suits my style. My builds are perfect but my weapons rotate like every hour

[high lily]

ok but vox is in the portal

[boreal ore]

I believe it’s simply not available atm

[fathom marten]

Yes because it's in the Legends rotator

[fathom marten]

Then I'll change my sheet

Still rng for that one?

[high lily]

for which one

[fathom marten]

Vox

Previously it was guaranteed

[high lily]

it would work the same as other portal exotic missions

[fathom marten]

For future reference, you can always type ";catalyst", including the semicolon, in #stats-and-commands for a spreadsheet of every catalyst (and more)

";cat" works too

[boreal ore]

Thank you for that. That’s helpful to know

[fathom marten]

I'm the one that runs it and (tries) to keep it updated so if anything feels off or is just flat out wrong, let me know :)

[keen vapor]

How do I do this one?

[sudden egret]

light is solar, void and arc

here's a list of light debuffs

[coral folio]

I don't think it counts if you're playing Rushdown Remix

[sudden egret]

that too

[coral folio]

So either just Fireteam Ops or the regular Rushdown

Will work

[keen vapor]

Thank you!

[keen vapor]

This was why it wasn't working

[coral folio]

Yeah it took me awhile to realize too

Dumb that it doesn't count

[keen vapor]

Yeah I even looked it up before posting, but then got busy but y'all are always helpful, thanks!

[sonic moat]

Does WO's drop chance increase with more feats and/or Epic mode?

[sudden egret]

no, only certain triumphs increases it's chance

it's also not farmable

[sonic moat]

got it

classic once a week per character scenario

speaking of which, to unlock the Desert raid on other characters... PLEASE TELL ME I dont have to do the campaign again 😭

[sudden egret]

you just can't launch it

someone else can just launch it

[sonic moat]

ah thank fck lol

[sonic shell]

Anyone able to lmk how to get some good hand cannons? Returning to this game after some years and I'm maining Austringer

[high lily]

pvp or pve

[sonic shell]

I only play crucible lowk

[high lily]

Iron Banner starts next week and should still have the best pvp hc

@red mantle can tell the roll

[sonic shell]

Yk wut it's called?

And thanks

[high lily]

i dont remember what its called, i dont play pvp

[sonic shell]

Ok then I actually have a couple more questions for the pve side of the game

How in the hell do i grind rn

Like

I loaded up, and went str8 to pvp since idk wuts goin on

Or where to grind at

I also have no dlcs

[high lily]

everything in the portal is f2p

thats also where you grind power

[sonic shell]

So what do I do first

[coral folio]

Besides the Renegades and EoF tabs

[sonic shell]

Any idea wut I should be doin?

[high lily]

maybe get Choir of One from the Encore exotic mission in the Pinnacle Ops tab

[quartz sun]

Whisper peak mission

[high lily]

Psi Aeterna is a great weapon, Ferropotent armor is one of the best sets in the game

[coral folio]

There's several tabs

Solo Ops for quick solo content (that lowkey gets kind of mind numbing)

Fireteam Ops that are mostly regular PvE missions, with matchmaking

Pinnacle Ops for exotic missions and other content that you might find hard if you don't know what you're doing (also not matchmade? I think, but you can use the Fireteam Finder for help), I would recommend watching some guides on what to do for the exotic missions so you know what to do

I don't remember really how difficulty scales based on your power level, it's been awhile

[sonic shell]

Mmm alr

[coral folio]

But like Jongo said I would also recommend getting Choir of One, it's a very solid PvE weapon

[sonic shell]

There's hella exotics locked behind dlcs so if I don't buy those I won't be able to get the exotic wep or armor right

[coral folio]

That's correct, although sometimes they do free play days for those DLCs and you can usually keep using what you earn from it

They don't do it often though

[sonic shell]

Alr thank y'all for the information

One more thing

How I do enhance a weapon or smth

Idk wut it's called

And I how I get 5 stars on armor or a wep

[high lily]

get to 470 power then play ultimate difficulty for consistent drops

[sonic shell]

Wut abt the enhancing stuff

[high lily]

can only do that with weapons released before Edge of Fate

[sonic shell]

And how do I do it tho

[high lily]

inspect and older weapon then enhance it

[sonic shell]

There's something I need to do that tho

Idk how to get wut I need

[high lily]

just enhancement cores

[sonic shell]

Lemme see if I'm talking Abt the right thing rq

[high lily]

unless youre talking about a weapon that can be crafted, in which case youll need the full pattern

which is 5 red borders of the same gun

[sonic shell]

Deepsight pocket

Need a harmonizer

[high lily]

what weapon is it

[sonic shell]

Wait no

Ok hollon

I'm tryna get a better weapon mod on my Austringer

But I need it enhanced or shm

Sum

Where do I do that at

[high lily]

you can only get Harmonizers from Xur if he decides to sell it in the weekend, otherwise you can farm for red borders in the Presage exotic mission, specifically the version from the legends section of the director

[sonic shell]

Don't see nun called Presage in the legends section

[high lily]

then it isnt availabe this week

[glass reef]

Question since its been a while since I've done a raid, what are Warlocks running theses days for it? Mostly what exotics are recommended? Am I fine with the Phoenix protocol and Whisper of the Worm? Is NLB used at all for DMG phases?

[high lily]

getaway artist on prismatic
Phoenix isnt that great of an exotic and is better for roaming
Whisper is boss specific
NLB hasnt been used for pretty much any phase

[glass reef]

Any overall exotic weapon you would say is best or holds up well? Or all case by case basis

[high lily]

Choir of One is a really good add clear exotic

exotics arent used for damage outside of Whisper (for precision bosses), Whirling Ovation, FInality's Auger and Parasite (if you dont own Whirling)

[glass reef]

Awesome, thank you. Ill get started on making a build for getaway artist and snag the Choir while im at it

[high lily]

getaway specifically on prismatic

[glass reef]

Yeah Im cooking something up now with it

[high lily]

https://dim.gg/wqdskqq/Prismatic

heres my build

[glass reef]

Yeah about what I was doin other than solar melee and trying to figure out something instead of facit of dominance since I dont have that yet

[neat fulcrum]

so i just got back on d2 after a year. is there any tips to what i should be doing ? i’ve been running the campaign so far. im mainly not aware of the best guns/and or activities to run for leveling up.

[quartz sun]

lit sabber

[rancid tundra]

for the purposes of mods like heavy handed and firepower, does grapple melee kill count as a melee or a grenade?

my understanding is it can be either, yea

[turbid sorrel]

either

[rancid tundra]

cool, thanks

[red mantle]

crimils?

[high lily]

thats it

[turbid sorrel]

slide adagio

[hazy trellis]

Im tryna do expert conquest:sunless cell,but they wont let me do it die to my Loadout being incorrect for the current restrictions.How do i fix it?

[rancid tundra]

can you send a screenshot of your current loadout?

[hazy trellis]

Alr

I just came back to destiny after like maybe 3 years

Everything is so diff

[quartz sun]

would recommend watching some videos and playing a bit more before doing an expert conquest

blue gear may not be cooking

[hazy trellis]

I got some good gear but its all power 10 🤧

[quartz sun]

old gear then right

not tiered?

[hazy trellis]

Yup

[quartz sun]

I think you can get some free stuff from zavala in the tower

to boost to 300 power

[rancid tundra]

so, im using an older sniper than normal, and i feel like i cant rely on it as much to hit shots compared to my newer sniper, anyone know why?

theyve got similar range, and the aim assist is within 10 points of each other, so im a bit confused

[boreal ore]

Does every dungeon have a specific exotic to it?

[rancid tundra]

yes, except prophecy

throne is wishender

pit is xeno

forgot the rest 💀

[boreal ore]

alrighty I appreciate it I’m gonna research those lol

Wishender I think is the only one I have I believe. Cause that’s a now right?

[rancid tundra]

yea, exotic bow

[weak oriole]

duality is heartshadow, spire is hiarchy, gotd is navigator, warlords is buried bloodline, goa is gjally, vespers is icebreaker and sundered is finality’s auger

[sonic moat]

Modified b7 pistol any good in pve?

[high lily]

meh

people like the Firefly + Headstone perk combo but its really nothing special

[sonic moat]

yeah im looking for hard hitting

that shit probably couldnt scratch redbars in ultimate 😭

guess ill focus on fast talker

because im a scrub who doesnt have MINT

[balmy stag]

what would yall say are the best special/heavy weapons rn non exotic

[high lily]

special is Psi Aeterna, Mint Retrograde, most rocket sidearms
Heavy would be Hezen, Everpresent or ig The When And Where has potential

[sonic moat]

wait rocket sidearms still good? So I could run a rocket sidearm on kinetic as a temporary Mint replacement???

[trim axle]

whats the best gl after everpresent

[high lily]

Outrageous Fortune

[high lily]

rocket sidearms arent damage weapons

theyre add clear

[trim axle]

i got the t5 of that like a couple weeks ago from zavala

the free one

[balmy stag]

yeah I have none of those heavies damn

[sonic moat]

no mint, all armor drops

it's bleak chat

[balmy stag]

guess ill keep trying to get a a499 roll

[trim axle]

hezen is f2p

[high lily]

oh forgot about Refurbished

yea thats good too

[sonic moat]

a499 is GREAT

[trim axle]

i got a decent one on my first one and ive just stuck with it

[sonic moat]

probably the only actually GOOD legendary heavy rn

[balmy stag]

ill try to get it tonight probs then

[trim axle]

from vog

and u can craft it

[balmy stag]

I have had 0 luck getting it to drop </3

[balmy stag]

hopefully I can get one with the thing that lets me craft

if it lets me use deepsight I will

[trim axle]

deepsight resonance

[trim axle]

3rd column kinda buns tho

[high lily]

you can buy them in the Piker Gang area

1k credits per

[high lily]

raid weapons arent worth using Harmonizers on

theyre easily farmable

[balmy stag]

yeah am pledged to them rn

not high enough for all yet thoi

[balmy stag]

ig ill grind first and see if I get a good roll, if I dont ill use harmonizer cuz its been at 5 for a while now

ill focus on getting an a499 first

[trim axle]

oh yeah

what is

cuz

i have harmonizers

and idk what to spend em on

[high lily]

hard to farm stuff like weapons from exotic missions in the legend section of the director

Ikelos Shotgun for example

[trim axle]

what mission is ikelos stuff from again

[balmy stag]

ima go deposit dark ingots in the piker area and try to get the rank up to buy another

and hope for a nice roll

[trim axle]

99 percent of what matters is aggregrate charge

[balmy stag]

uncivil discourse and compact defender seem to be so much easier to get

[trim axle]

ya and fast talker

wait wdym

[balmy stag]

I get them

more often

[trim axle]

from what

lawless?

[balmy stag]

from dark ingots, from the actual missions like bounty hunt and smuggle and such

[trim axle]

these and fast talker you can buy for credits no matter who ur allied with

[balmy stag]

last should give higher rarity yeah?

[balmy stag]

where is that?

[trim axle]

like

[balmy stag]

or is that one of the places outside

[trim axle]

its outside the cantina

[trim axle]

yes

[balmy stag]

yeah fair but ngl none of those interest me currently

[trim axle]

why are you using a primary with choir

[balmy stag]

oh that was just place holder lol

[trim axle]

yeah just letting you know

[balmy stag]

I dont use this build

[trim axle]

compact is eh and fast talker is only good for pks and uncivil is only good for lucky pants and eh for everything else

[balmy stag]

my main is this

and using vesper of radius

[trim axle]

alr nice

balanced glide 💩

[balmy stag]

I usually use burst glide

I just havent bothered changing it in the custom ladout

[balmy stag]

finally has aggregate

[high lily]

Use the other mag

[balmy stag]

ye I swapped it already for reload speed

just didnt select it in the ss yet

[exotic fjord]

Does anyone know if the dungeons are glitched at the moment because it says I don’t own any of the keys, even though last time I played the game, I had them

[high lily]

they were all f2p for 2 weeks on Renegades launch

[exotic fjord]

Ah ok

[pastel hill]

is the midnight coup still obtainable?

[drifting plinth]

barely

xur only

[pastel hill]

damn it

[waxen ibex]

plenty of better hand cannons available but i get wanting it for the chungus nostalgia
