RELATED: Destiny 2: All Weapons From The Spire Of The Watcher Dungeon, Ranked A huge part of buildcrafting in Destiny 2 is having high-stat armor. High-stat armor is an armor piece that has not only a high overall stat value located underneath the individual stats (a total of above 63 is typically considered good), but it also has high peaks in desirable stats like Resilience, or whatever other stat the player would like to enhance....
Among its cast of characters, Destiny 2’s Season of the Lost features the resurrected Uldren Sov, now a Lightbearer by the name of Crow, who first came back in Season of the Hunt. This Season also features Savathun, trapped in a crystal prison while she waits for Mara Sov to perform a ritual that will exorcise her Worm. With these two characters inevitably going to interact with one another in the coming weeks, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that both Forsaken and Cayde-6’s death are still so relevant to this day....
Not only does the description identify the bag as belonging to Hawthorne, but it also provides some backstory about this mysterious character in Destiny 2: There is no visual reference for Hawthorne, but the look of the bag definitely fits with such a character, appearing cobbled together from different materials and bringing together a number of Destiny’s insignias and visual language. Attached to the bag is a Frontier Kit, which is unabashedly themed around Osiris, including its sunburst exterior and some of the contents inside: a solar blanket and a solar panel USB charger with light....
Alongside those new subclasses, Destiny 2 will also offer revamped versions of three original subclasses: the Striker Titan, Voidwalker Warlock, and Gunslinger Hunter. What will happen with the other three element-based subclasses has been a point of debate for some time, and this week Project Lead Mark Noseworthy confused the matter even further. When asked when Bungie will show off changes to the Nightstalker Hunter, one of the subclasses not revamped and not replaced in Destiny 2, Noseworthy had this to say:...
As seen in the video below from the YouTuber known as MoreConsole, while official screenshots of Destiny 2’s Athena Victorious sparrow haven’t been shared by Bungie at this point in time, fans can get a better look at the exclusive vehicle’s design, as well as its red and white color scheme, which are the hues used in Virgin Media’s branding. Those UK fans looking to take advantage of the deal will need to redeem their codes for the sparrow through Virgin Media’s website (virginmedia....
Nightfalls are designed to be some of the hardest content in the game, but one Destiny 2 player has beaten it solo. The player, going by the name of Esoterickk, managed to complete the raid in under 20 minutes according to a YouTube video of the feat. The modifiers are Timewarp, which extends the timer when enemies are killed, and Prism, which sees attacks matching the focused element deal increased damaged....
As seen in the tweet directly below, the Destiny 2 player and Twitter user known as “itsBlinx” shared a picture of him proudly showing off his acquisition of the Redrix’s Claymore pulse rifle after having earned it through some serious grind time. Game Rant’s Editor in Chief, Anthony Taormina, reached out to him to ask exactly how long it took to get, which was “around 12 hours” and “86 games” in which the Guardian saw no losses....
As fireteams completed the world-first race for the Vault of Glass raid, they earned achievements and triumphs that made their progress trackable. As such, the public was able to see who completed the raid and when soon after each team finished. Destiny 2 fans were surprised to see one of the names from the second team to complete the raid was offensive, listed as “#BlackLivesDon’tMatter.” RELATED: Destiny 2 Warns That Raid Exploit Will Disqualify Players from Vault of Glass First World Raid...
Over on the Destiny 2 sub-Reddit, players have begun to post details about a special interaction between certain Titan players and Saint-14. With the Helm of Saint-14 exotic gear equipped, approaching the legendary hero in his spot inside the Tower will now trigger a special dialogue line. RELATED: Destiny 2 is Having One of its Buggiest Seasons Ever An amused Saint-14 will excitedly tell the player: While this custom voice line should amuse Titan players, it almost didn’t make the cut for Season 9....
Some Exotic weapons are blatantly better than others, of course, but another challenge when choosing which one to use comes from the type of ammunition the gun uses. Destiny 2 has three different types of ammo: Primary, Special, and Heavy, and each has its pros and cons. Primary weapons recently got a big boost in utility thanks to having infinite ammo, so the next best factor to consider for choosing which to use is the gun’s element....
To gain a major damage boost, Destiny 2 players will need Titans with the Synthoceps exotic gauntlets and one Warlock using the Well of Radiance super. With the Synthoceps and the Well of Radiance, a Titan gains a huge weapon damage buff that’s especially useful against high HP bosses like Riven in Last Wish. It’s not entirely clear what is causing this huge damage buff but it seems to be the way the Well of Radiance interprets the Titan’s damage....
In the end, the class that wins Guardian Games will lock in the color of their class item to gold for the year until the next Guardian Games comes around in Destiny 2, so it is not as though the winning class is going to get much besides some cosmetic flair and bragging rights. But both those things seem right up the typical Hunter’s alley. While it’s true that Titans are ahead after three days of Guardian Games, here are some reasons why Hunters may very well come out on top by the end of the event....
Farming ascendant shards in Destiny 2 can be a real task because these things are very rare and very hard to come by, and the activities which drop these shards frequently are arduous to complete. Players need to be exceptionally skilled and at 1280 power level to complete those activities. How to farm Ascendant Shards in Destiny 2? #1 Banshee-44 Banshee-44 is the resident gunsmith for the vanguard in the tower in Destiny 2....
Landing alongside The Witch Queen expansion is a major update to Destiny 2’s Void elemental power. Entitled Void 3.0, the update is the first significant change to the elemental play style in Year 5. It overhauls the skills and toolkit available to players. The update will include a new Power Cap and an arsenal of new weapons and armor for their guardians. These new weapons and armor might have something to do with the new weapon crafting materials spotted in the Destiny 2 ViDoc....
A recent trailer from Bungie confirms the upcoming Guardians Games will be returning to Destiny 2 this April and continuing into May. The trailer tries to stoke the competitive spirit in players, showing several snippets of the competition players can expect. The trailer also provided some details about the activities and rewards featured in the Guardian Games.

The biggest news is that players will be able to earn a 650 Power Legendary bow from Lord Shaxx. According to the database information available on light.gg, the bow is called The Vow, a Solar energy bow with the set perks of Rapid Hit and Archer’s Tempo. Like the Horror Story auto rifle that was available during the fall’s Festival of the Lost Halloween event, The Vow will be max-level....
From the partial information available, it appears that the path to get Arbalest will be similar to the way players earned weapons in the most recent iterations of Festival of the Lost or The Dawning. According to one of the developers at fan database site light.gg, “Eander,” Destiny 2’s Update 2.2.1 added information that suggests the exotic will be available to purchase from events vendor Eva Levante. Arbalest appears to be among the items players will be chasing during The Revelry....
Destiny 2: How to Farm Essence of Dawning for Dawning 2021 The fastest way to earn Essence of Dawning centers around Destiny 2’s Cryptolith Lure, which is found near the Crow at the Tangled Shore. Upon obtaining the Lure, players should access it from their Quests and put the Prey Mod: Savek into its first mod slot. The other two slots should be filled with dormant mods, and fans should follow the onscreen prompts to activate the Lure and start a Wrathborn hunt when that is done....
It appears that Bungie listened to feedback during the console beta that said skill-based matchmaking should be toned down or removed in the casual Quickplay playlist. While skill-based matchmaking isn’t going away entirely in Quickplay, it is being reduced. To further emphasize the more casual experience, Bungie is also extending the score cap for a match and adjusting the Mercy Rule trigger: In the Competitive playlist, skill will remain a driving force with a mix of connection-based matchmaking to help reduce latency during the match....
While vaulting locations and campaigns is ultimately a good thing for the health of the game, it also takes something away from the experience, considering that new players won’t be able to tackle old content. Destiny 2’s next expansion is taking the Tangled Shore and the Forsaken campaign into the vault, but everything in the HELM is also being vaulted, alongside every piece of seasonal content from Year 4. This left the question as to how Bungie would handle Exotics like Hawkmoon and Dead Man’s Tale, and today’s TWAB explains just that....
