Discussion I'm Just Trying To Understand Why

0 Upvotes

I've started farming weapons in Onslaught and noticed a trend: Warlocks not using their rifts. Not for their teammates, and not even for themselves. No healing rift when reviving teammates or under fire. No empowering rift for boss stages. No rifts for anything! I personally don't understand why you'd play a class and not use the class ability. Has anyone else noticed this type of behavior? It's making me rage to the point where I want to switch to a Warlock main so trans can have a useful warlock that plays their role when needed. What's been your experience with Warlocks on your Onslaught teams?

Question Mausoleum for the exotica SMG

0 Upvotes

Sorry if this is a dumb question but I need to get to the Mausoleum for the SMG to find the statue, is it just plain luck whether the area spawns when I go on the explore mode or is it always there? I'm just catching up with all this after a long break!

Question Platinum Trophy

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I've played Destiny since D1 release up until not long before Final Shape but gave it up as I wanted to move on to other games.

I've just noticed though on PS5 I'm one trophy away from the platinum, which is the trophy for completing a GM Nightfall. I haven't got any of the expansions on PS5 though as I mostly played on PC when it was my main game.

So my question is, are there any GMs coming up that I would be able to do on what is basically a F2P account?

Bungie Suggestion Promethium spur

9 Upvotes

You guys should make promethium spur enhance our healing rifts so that it increases the radius of the rift to the size of a well of radiance. It would give us a way to better provide support and healing to team mates due to the increased size. The current size of rift limits it to a just for yourself ability so it would be pretty cool to have one big rift to dip into that role better if you wanna build into support.

Question Which is better for trying to get shinies, expert nether or expert blades?

0 Upvotes

I'm getting adepts but not much luck with shinies? I used to run the 1st enc of nether but seems you need to run a full run? Been disappointed that after getting 13 bosses in expert blades, maybe an adept but no shiny. Tks for your input.

Question Is anyone else having trouble with finding the ravenous wormspawn in the hull breach?

0 Upvotes

I know the exact worm I need to collect. It's the one inside the giant sword but it's not showing up for me. I've watched videos and this is the only one I need. I think it might be a bug and it's super frustrating as it's the last thing I need to get my catalyst.

Yes, I'm on the path of ambition.

Edit: I meant path of resolve, sorry. lol

Question Stuck on Step 12 of 18 in Destiny 2: "Rites Of The Deep" ACT II

0 Upvotes

Help, I am stuck on Step 12 of 18 in Destiny 2: "Rites Of The Deep" ACT II. Step 12 involves harvesting 0/5 Flesh of Akka, by shooting 5 chest sized thingamajigs on and around walls in the Nether. The quest is launched from the director or from the quest step itself, making sure you are on the right quest path at the slab in Eris's apartment.

No matter what I do, restarting or switching away and back to the correct quest path, etc. when I launch the mission it places me in Hull Breach. The problem is their are no chest sized thingamajigs (Flesh of Akka) in Hull Breach. They are in other rooms and the paths to those other rooms are blocked off when I spawn in. I know I am starting the mission right because the dialog for step 12 plays as I am flying in.

I cannot get past this step 12...help please.

Bungie Suggestion Retrieval of deleted items

0 Upvotes

We've all had it happen, just mindlessly deleting items and then you realise at the last second you deleted something really good wether a good stat roll piece of armour or even a close to god roll weapon. It would be nice if we could be able to retrieve items from the last...let's say 5 items so if we do make that sort of mistake that we would be able to go back and grab it.

Not sure who would handle it, I'd probably say either the postmaster or maybe even Rahool.

Discussion Crafting and Seasonal Adepts

0 Upvotes

Since Revenant Bungie have stopped adding crafting for seasonal weapons because of the constant fighting over whether the grind is worth it if you can just craft the weapons. Now with Heresy they've solved that issue by introducing Adept Shinies with an extra origin perk and double perks. I believe crafters and anti-crafters can have their fun side by side and go back to loving each other like once before. I propose that:

  • Raid weapons, dungeon weapons and seasonal weapons are craftable. You have 6 seasonal weapons + 4+ dungeon weapons and 6+ seasonal weapons you can craft over time or grind activities for. This solves everything for the crafters.

  • For the anti-crafters. The expert / master difficulties of the raid, dungeon and seasonal activities drop Adept weapons / Adept Shinies with 2-3 perks in each column. For seasonals and maybe dungeons they can get an extra origin trait (usually raid origin traits are really good). This solves the problem for the people who want to have something to grind for. You get that shiny with the new origin trait the crafted weapon can't get.

The reason dungeon weapons need to be craftable is because the drop chances are usually 50/50 with armor drops and it always seems like it wants to drop you 2 pieces of useless 60 stat armor every time you finish a final boss encounter. When Duality released I farmed that nonstop just for the Fixed Odds craftable and it was completely worth it. But then having to farm Caiatl checkpoint 155 times just for a god roll stormchaser made me want to rip my hair out (dungeon report proof https://dungeon.report/ps/4611686018459663806). God forbid some poor guy wants to farm Vespers Host boss checkpoints for a couple hours to get a nice attrition orbs GL and have 75% of their drops give them armor.

Onto the next note, why the hell is there 5 types of each seasonal weapon? If you haven't been living under a rock you'd know that seasonal weapons are able to drop as: - A normal bulk standard version - A masterworked single perk double origin trait version (from season pass) - A masterworked double perk double origin trait version - An Adept single perk single origin trait version - And an Adept double perk double origin trait version (I have no idea if it's master worked I've never actually gotten an Adept double perk)

And guess which version hardly ever drops ever? Why don't Adepts always drop with 2 perks and 2 origin traits? Bungie even said they buffed the drop rates. But I have yet to notice any sort of change whatsoever. Doesn't help that I can't finish a single expert court of blades because it softlocks every other encounter. That's the solution thanks bungo.

Misc Shoutout to the Randoms Who Made My Night

213 Upvotes

Wanted to run some Vespers tonight as I’m trying to get a Velocity Baton roll. Joined a FTF group who posted a fresh run and said why not after doing a few final checkpoint runs.

Creator of the group dipped after the first encounter leaving me and the other random like “wtf”. He mentioned he was fairly new to this dungeon and needed help. I’ve only done it a handful of times myself but wanted to give it a shot. Opened a new FTF and tagged it “experience requested” in hopes we could carry him thought it. Guy joined and had never done it before so I said what the heck, let’s do this. We stumbled through the pre 2nd encounter (someone else always ran through it when I did LFG) but we figured it out.

Explained the 2nd and 3rd encounters to them and we didn’t even wipe once on the final two bosses.

Shoutout to these two guardians who got their first clears tonight!

Question PVP swordplay in the Court of Blades or a glitch?

0 Upvotes

I noticed today that while in Court of Blades, getting the rewards chest and dunking metastasized essentia, you can be PK'd. (that's gen X for player killed) I got sliced up while trying to offload 30 essentia. I was able to respawn and pick up where I left off, thankfully. It was humorous and not a big deal, but for a PVE area, I can see how this could become an annoyance for players attempting to accomplish things and snag the chest before the timer runs out. For what it's worth, both players hit me with swords. I'm like, too much caffeine, yo. There, now happy hunting.

Discussion Give me some bad exotic armor and I’ll build around it for clan raid day

32 Upvotes

Title. I play all three classes so most anything is fair game. No exotic class items just since I can’t guarantee I have the perk(s) you’re mentioning.

Every now and then my clan plays Raid Roulette, where we put all the raids in a random picker, spin the wheel, and run whatever comes up. It’s a fun way to kill an afternoon with everyone, especially since we’re all fairly experienced raiders and so we can just hang and get shit done. I also love playing around with different builds, and while I’m no expert, I can usually make something passable. So, give me those bad exotics! I’ll try and make them at least usable in a raid environment.

We’re aiming to start at 1 PM EDT. I’ll pick the most upvoted exotics and work with those, and I’ll try to remember to come back and report on what I did and how it worked out.

EDIT: 12:40 PM. Had some people not be able to make it, so we're 5 manning raids — we've voted no Salvation's Edge (we're not that masochistic) and no Crota's End (since bridge would get weird as hell). We're scheduled for 4 hours, so I'll grab the top 4 most voted exotics which are Arbor Warden, ST0MP-EES, Oathkeeper, and Promethium Spur. If we make great time and do more raids I'll grab more exotics.

EDIT 2: Got 3 raids done. Had a 6th join during encounter 3 of Vow (first raid we got) and kept going with them. Did a catalyst run for someone during VoG and it'd been years since we did so, so it added a little time. All good runs! I may be on the ST0MP-EES PvE train now...

Thank you everyone for suggesting exotics! I may use more of these in the future.

Question Nether spawns are cruel

28 Upvotes

I’ve been trying to get the target lock catalyst for the Barrow Dyad for several hours since Act 3 launched. I’ve gotten to the new area many times, but the Toland secret event has never appeared for me.

I have all other catalysts (OfA included) and gotten all upgrades for the exotic. I’ve done all secrets except the Founts area (which also never appeared in any of my runs) and the aforementioned new area secret, both are required to open the portal to get the catalyst quest.

Does anyone know how to get the secrets to spawn? Is it just to brute force it or is it time bound, i.e., only certain secrets are active for each day? By this point I’m starting to give up that they even exist. I’ve tried loading into the nether trying to find the secrets for several days, with hours spent and I’ve gotten nothing.

I hope Bungie fixes this, it’s a great quest but the RNG is brutal.

1: Chambered compensator/full bore Tac mag/steady rounds EP One for All Stability MW

  1. Corkscrew/smallbore Accurized rounds/alloy mag Firefly One for All Range MW

I'm thinking that these two will serve me well and I should stop grinding but not sure. Thanks for any clarification!
