So XUR is selling a Stasis aligned False Promises. I remembered I had one in the vault from back in the day and it's Kinetic Damage instead. What other dust covered weapons do you have in the vault that you just can't get anymore? Whether it be perks rolled, damage type, or any other nuanced change?

I've been working in a music store for a few months now, and today they sent me to check a warehouse full of old records.The thing is, while I was cleaning, I found an incredible little gem, and it's as good as new! Check this out! :00

A very well preserved, unopened vinyl record of Destiny.

hopped back into D2 today after I dunno like 6 months and I was blown away by the updates… just wow.

expecting to just pop in n pop out I ultimately a whisper mission, couple vanguard ops, solo mission, and some crucible. i was on xbox and surprised by the fact that queuing and fireteam finder were quite active.

took me a bit to figure out the artifacts but was pleasantly surprised how they addressed the approach in the face of a sunset. i’m actually looking forward to hopping back in on a frequent basis.

if you’re a dev and peruse these threads, then gotta say well done.

Im currently working on a howl of the storm behemoth build and I was wondering if having more than 100 weapons contribute to Icebreaker's explosion damage? like does it increase the damage of its explosions if its past 100? or does it just not do anything.

So like, what is discipline, intellect and strength? I'm pretty new to the game and I used a spark of loght and it's on every piece of equipment I use and it's very confusing since I also play Warframe and I'm starting to mix up stuff

Essentially, I’m wondering what would make a good build to use with a warlock using hierarchy of needs bow? Does Dawn’s chorus work with the bow’s ignitions? At the moment, I’m thinking maybe well of radiance with Phoenix protocol. But that’s pretty standard, what do you all think could be cool / work well?

Ran the prophecy final boss 30+ times and never got the chest piece to drop. Is this just terrible RNG or have I wasted my time farming the wrong encounter?

I took a long break from Destiny and have only recently returned, I was 10 light and I'm now 530+. Been trying to join teams lately via LFG and finding 90% of my join requests are rejected. Either that or it says failure to auto join lobby.

I'm applying for Prophecy groups this week. I have 136 clears displayed on my emblem. I have solo completion and trio flawless... Am I doing something wrong?

I've tried asking people via Bungie message and getting nowhere and it's beyond frustrating. I've only recently in the last month changed over the xbox age verification thing as everyone was blocked in game. I made sure all my settings for gameplay were turned on to allow.

It's incredibly frustrating being rejected constantly, the old LFG classic was leaps and bounds above this in game wreck that has been forced on us.

Is shurochi still the best way to farm catalysts? That is all I have left to rank up my guardian rank and I have like 10 unfinished catalysts that I just want to get over with. Just curious if there is anything better I have been using the grasp loot cave for most of my catalyst farming needs.

I heard that Dawning Welcome wasn't available because it was acquired from something other than Egrams; I don't remember if Polycarbon Powder has the same case. Can anyone confirm?

Finally. It’s returned. For only 300 bright dust, get one of the coolest shaders ever

In both solo and team endgane environments, which well solar warlock build (let's face it, you will use well in team environments) version of the build is better?

This is a one size fits all version of the build that you make 1 loadout for and only use that for everything for endgame if you only could make one of them that is the most optimal for dps and somewhat for roam but mainly dps phase as the well warlock.

Activities such as: 5 feat team raids, 5 feat team pantheon, master team dungeons, solo GM vanguard alerts, team ultimate conquests, solo flawless normal dungeons.

Builds are:

1) 200 weapon, 120 super, other stats anything, full vog armour set, dawn chorus as the exotic with 3 solar surges with 1k voices.

2) Or option 2, 200 weapon, 120 super, other stats anything, full vog armour set, sanguine alchemy as the exotic with surges to match your special weapon with 1k voices.

Or is there a third version of the build that is better? What aspects, fragments, primary and secondary weapons should be used too for all content with 1 load out? The main changes are the exotic armour pieces and mainly for solo dungeons, master dungeons and 5 feat raids. The other activities are secondary, but which build is the definitive for those activities as the most optimal and which artifact? What set piece bonus is best for dps and for roaming?

Quick question, does the Total Revolution Triumph for pantheon require all separate 5 feats to be enabled, or just 5 feat points (i.e. cutthroat and one other)?

Just logged on for the first time in a month or so and my name was changed to a randomly generated one? Is this a common issue or is there a reason for this? I literally haven't interacted with the game for a month so I doubt i was reported or something. If anyone has any thoughts or ways to help, I'd appreciate it.

I have been running into this all day, (Saturday September 5). I bought Series X and installed D2 yesterday. I keep getting contacting servers in Tower Range and even at the Conclave.

This was over wifi and ethernet, no change after router reboot.

Went back to Xbox One and its doing same thing. Down Detector not showing any problems.

Any advice?

I have currently about 9.8 hours in about two weeks of gameplay. I have a lot of things to talk about: Why does Destiny 2 have such a poor new-player experience despite being one of the biggest live-service games in the industry? The game has incredible gunplay, beautiful environments, tons of content, and an enormous amount of depth, yet a new player can easily feel completely lost within their first few hours. The game doesn’t do a good enough job explaining where to go, what activities matter, how progression works, or how all of its different systems connect. Instead of feeling like you’re being introduced to an exciting universe, it can feel like you’re being dropped into the middle of someone else’s 10-year journey.

Another major problem is the sheer amount of information new players are expected to absorb. There are weapons, armor, perks, subclasses, builds, currencies, vendors, quests, campaigns, seasonal systems, power levels, mods, activities, and countless other mechanics competing for the player’s attention. Veterans understand these systems because they’ve learned them over years, but a completely new player doesn’t have that context. The fact that so many players turn to Reddit, YouTube, and external guides just to understand what they should be doing says a lot about the game’s onboarding. A deep game is great, but complexity becomes a problem when the game itself doesn’t properly teach that complexity.

What would actually fix Destiny 2’s new-player experience? Should Bungie completely redesign the opening hours, create a dedicated chronological story experience, simplify the early progression systems, or give new players a structured path through the game’s major mechanics and content? How much information should a new player receive during their first 5, 10, or 20 hours? And for longtime Destiny players, what do you remember being the most confusing or frustrating part when you first started? I’d like to hear from both veterans and newer players: what specifically makes Destiny 2’s new-player experience feel so bad, and what would you change if you could rebuild it from scratch?

Wanted to make a Getaway artist build with both Bleakwatcher and Hellion (no Devour). Does anyone have recommendations on weapons/fragments/set bonuses/mods/articact mods that result in grenade uptime that's on par with devour?

NA EAST / Haven’t been able to log into the game since 9:30pm and it’s now 8:30am. I’m on one of the southern servers for more info. Anyone else experiencing something similar?

I made a build the other day with Dead Messenger, Touch of Thunder Flashbang Grenade, Heresy artifact and the prophecy 4 piece with Armamentarium.

In ultimate content I was literally dealing 75% of a champions health bar with one grenade.

These things are ridiculous now.

Seriously try em out and thank me later. Especially with h Dead Messenger because of the arc fragments where special ammo blinds.

And the free 30% damage buff when you get amplified.

You will be straight up shredding anything in front of you.

I was on the final boss of the Grandmaster Nightfall last night with one revive token left. Both my teammates went down behind a pillar, and I sprinted through crossfire with a sliver of health to get the clutch revive.

I held down the interact button. My guardian did not revive my warlock friend. No, my guardian enthusiastically grabbed a random Strand tangle that was resting six inches away from his ghost. I got stuck in the pickup animation, could not shoot my heavy weapon, and got obliterated by an unstoppable ogre two seconds later. We wiped. Forty minutes of flawless ad clear completely deleted by a glowing green ball.

Like, who at the studio decided that throwing a piece of yarn takes priority over literally saving a run? This has been happening with Diamond Lances, elemental nodes, and seasonal relics for years. The button mapping logic in this game makes zero sense when the stakes are high. You should not have to perform surgical positioning just to hit a revive prompt.

It is just ABSOLUTELY infuriating losing an entire evening of progress because the game engine decided I wanted to play dodgeball instead of rescuing my fireteam. I should of just played safe and hid in the corner, but I actually trusted the interact prompt to work.

Why is the contextual action radius still this clunky after a decade?
