Destiny 2 Season of Dawn |OT| "I'm still trying."
- Thread starter Stalker
- Start date
- Status
Decided to take advantage of the last days of the Wish Ender bug to do a Pit of Heresy solo run. Going through the dungeon for the first time and solo was mostly a fun experience except for Chamber of Suffering. It is quite a fitting name for the encounter.
To my great annoyance, I only realized after I finished that for the solo completion triumph to count you can't leave the dungeon at all. I doubt I'll ever try it solo again.

Looks like Wish-Ender's back on the menu boys.
They just keep monkeying around over there.
I bet they did something that broke Devil's Ruin or some other piece of Exotic armor
If you wanna know what Bastion does and how to get it, here ya go. Even includes leaked gameplay footage of the weapon. Some of the information posted in this thread by whatstheirface, I think it was KarmaCow, is in this video if you just so happened to not believe them for whatever reason. Also, I've only just recently decided to listen to this Fallout guy and wow, his voice gives me a tingle.
What it does:
What it does:
It's basically a burst fire shotgun you gotta charge up. Pretty neat idea. Will probably suck, but whatever.
So today is the last day of the dawn event or I still have tomorrow?? I still need 50 cookies for the last quest, but knowing exactly when it ends would be helpful
Tomorrow at reset. Good luck...
That's a lot of PvP/Strikes/Gambit
Thank you, yes I was doing PvP when the quest was at 200 I was thinking that was the end and then I open the menu and saw 300 and laughed.
I'm hoping that they (Bungo) are looking at the traffic and notice that they are bleeding their hardcore players right now.
This is the "deadest" I've seen the game with hardcore and/or Destiny Vets since the CoO/Warmind days.
Hopefully, Bungie is not just looking at the f2p traffic and thinking this model is healthy for the long term.

Don't fat finger shame me bruh. I have large hands, lol.

damn, and all day i was likeLooks like Wish-Ender's back on the menu boys.
Lol. They really should. There is honestly no reason not to.
Just open all three faction venders to sell their guns/armor/shaders.
Monatize it through bounties like ever other vendor and only keep the shops open 1 weekend a month and allow players to grind whatever bounties they want, but make some of them fun/interesting like:
"Complete Leviathan Raid with "xxx" armor/weapon equiped the entire time" (locked equipment/loadout)
"Complete Eater of Worlds raid with only other guardians pledging to New Monarchy & wearing emblem"
Stupid stuff like that is actually fun and promotes community participation unlike the constant "kill 300,000 cabal" type bounties. Create a bounty for each item at each vendor that has to be completed while wearing the faction emblem, but also allow guardians to switch faction when ever they want.
I've honestly not played much these past few months/weeeks. I got to level 45 in 1st season, this season about level 9, I hate to say it but I think the game is done for me, for nowor at least until next gen space wizards appear.
I feel once they set a time on what could be done and earned I felt pressure to play, unfortunately destiny was my chill out game and playing Vex Offensive til my eyes bled just wasn't fun. So I ended that season with no Undying seal, limited weapons and then it was just ONTO THE NEXT ONE.
I really don't know what Bungie can do to get me back on board, they have content and events it but none of it has stuck to me like Black Armory, drifter and opulence did, maybe I just need a rest, which of course will mean I miss everything.

Previous seasonal weapons should be rolled into Menagerie after the season ends. Keep the best more live and relevant.
Though tbh I'd like to see something other than a horde mode on the future.

so does this mean Dawning will continue? 🤔
Cold Front and Avalanche aren't worthwhile right? I have another 60ish potential cookies I could deliver but I don't want to sift through all the junk opening presents.
It's still ending they just aren't fixing Wishender until later.

They really, really need a full vendor refesh next season. Even if it's just different weapons and not new weapons, but I have thousands of tokens for each vendor that are useless.
Do it for the cores, but be careful!
I got bit by the menu bug and deleted 2k weapon mods by accident when opening all those gifts..
I've played enough Menagerie and other inspired gametypes for a lifetime honestly.
People wanting faction rally back
No, hotfix has nothing to do with dawning. It ends today.

not Faction Rallies
just Faction Vendors à la Destiny 1
Imagine the Number getting random rolls, better than anything Uriel's Gift could ever bring

Faction Rallies were a really cool concept that was less cool in execution, I still miss them and miss factions in general. Wish they'd bring Factions back as permanent vendors and then have a few Rallies a season that aren't so stupidly grindy, just have extra XP for the week and some set rolls to earn with reasonable objectives.

Gutter and Strap know what's up, lol. No rally, just different stuff to do/use
I still don't get why they just don't bring back faction vendors like they had in D1. Sure, it wasn't one of the best parts of D1. But it still gave you concrete rewards to work for. Even if you didn't get the drops you wanted, you were still at least making progress towards something. It was minor and of course eventually you'd run out of gear to purchase, but as something on type of the other ways to get weapons and gear, it was perfectly fine.
Osmosis sounds good on paper for challenging stuff but then you realize that you aren't actually allowed to unequip Izanagi's for difficult content.
I disagree, I had loads of fun with FWC's Omolon line
random rolls would make them even more interesting
I hated the rust bucket line up from Foresaken
So finally played the game a bit.
Made a warlock, I'm a sucker for mage classes.
Then tried hunter and titan.
Hunter's mobility is addicting, somewhat reminded me of Titanfall.
Titan's melee and super is satisfying.
I really wanted to like the warlock, but I don't like how it moves and melee/supers are not satisfying.

I didn't play in y1 so I wasn't there for Faction Rally stuff but it sounds mindlessly grindy and bad. It would be even worse now with random rolls on everything and vendors mostly giving out bad rolls.
Also considering they've already burned through y1 and y2 vendor armour already and they've said they don't have the time/money/people to make things like exclusive loot for the new strikes, we'll most likely see faction rally gear coming back through reappropriating them for crucible/strike/gambit gear next season.

I know I am the only one who wants it, but I think it is about time Izanagi's was knocked down a peg.
The fact that it takes an exotic heavy--prospector--to compete with it just shows has crazy out of step it is.
Inzanagi is not even practical, load, then pack 3 bullets... miss... reload, pack 3 bullets... miss

I was thinking back over all the DLC's we've gotten so far for Destiny 2, and this is how I rate them:
- Forsaken - the absolute pinnacle of Destiny content. We got everything we wanted, and more.
- Season of Opulence - without a doubt the best activity we'll probably ever get, good exotic quests and an enjoyable raid.
- Season of the Forge - At a very basic level, the forges are enjoyable to do and the loot from the season is still highly used till this day. It also has one of my favourite raids.
- Warmind - for a smaller DLC, this was really well done and very much needed given how lackluster CoO was. The destination was also very fun to explore.
- Season of the Drifter - While I didn't play during this season as it launched, I did end up enjoying running Reckoning to get the weapons and Gambit Prime was an much enjoyable experience over normal Gambit.
- Shadowkeep - I didn't really enjoy SK nearly as much as others did. It feels half done and I'm willing to bet we never get to finish that story until D3.
- Curse of Osiris - An awful destination, a few new shitty guns and a bad raid lair. All the bits of a shitty DLC.
- Season of the Undying - If it didn't launch with Shadowkeep then this season would have been shown for how truly bad it is. Terrible all around.
I did that loadout last season, Izanagi, Recluse, and Wendigo during a Nightfall. It was a total fail. I hated it
as for Osmosis, you need Demolitionist to compliment it
Sounds are not reality
In Destiny 1, you pledged to a Faction and that was it. You played the game normally and it would rep by itself for just playing normally Vanguard, Crucible.
Faction would rep by itself, go see Vendor to get stuff.
Destiny 2 is where they fucked up the factions royally.
In Destiny 1, you had Weapon Vendors that sold fixed rolls but you got randoms rolls by repping up Vanguard, Crucible and Factions.
It was great and awesome for character creation
Bungie lied about Character Creation / Why are the Faction Ornoments locked out in Armor 2.0?

anyone else watch that "Shader 2.0" video?? man its frustrating to see how much better shaders should be. I ignored shaders for like 2 years. I try to use them more now. But its just such a hassle.
I just much preferred them in D1

crucible.
I just want them to do two things:
- Completely kill the idea that they are consumable.
- On the bottom half of the character menu (with the ship, sparrow and emblem options), add a new shader option. This would allow you to select a single shader that automatically applies to your entire armor set (and allow you to preview them easier). After, you can then go into individual armor pieces if you want to, for example, just change the leg shader.
Yeah, I couldn't really tell if the Crucible or strike playlist was better.
I still feel like I have lots to do on the game. Admittedly, I took a long break after the Forsaken debacle so I've also got menagerie, black armory, and reckoning stuff to do, it but I'm not even doing them that much.
Do your weeklies for xp, bright dust, and ritual weapons. And if your reaction that is "ugh, I am not spending that much Time in crucible/gambit/strikes," it's probably time to take a break.
