One hour for one shitty golden drop still isnt the solution people think it will be
Awesome, thank you!
I'm having a blast again, no surprise. It's also my first foray into Destiny on PC... I'm in love. It looks and runs so good!
A full 50 wave clear should guarantee you a random Deepsight of 1 of the weapons. If you engage with the activity for 60+ hours to acquire all 12 weapon patterns, you should then at least be guaranteed the standard weapon roll you want. Then, acquiring all 12 patterns unlocks Superblack. The shiny weapons shouldn't be going away. They should just be the double-perk Adept variants for people to 'chase' or whatever. But nope, the 'engagement numbers over player enjoyment' bean counters still find a way to ruin it. Keep grinding those clears, maybe you'll get the roll you want eventually. Maybe
This whole thing is such a classic Bungle thing. From the attempt to super timegate things, to the horrible droprates, to the imminent removal of the Limited Edition weapons altogether. This event was just tee'd up for them to knock it out of the park, both from a rewarding and enjoyable gameplay standpoint, and from community goodwill. Nostalgia-bait people into getting hyped, fan fav weapons back with new rolls, a long-requested cool Shader, an exciting trailer for what's coming in TFS, etc. Even with all that going for them, they still find a way to step on the rake and fuck it up.
Oh, if you play at high framerate (over 60) you're playing on a higher difficulty. Certain damage sources do a lot more damage to you at high frame rates (Taken blight pools, for example). And Lament's combo doesn't work either, so if you wanted to do it on a boss you'd need to drop your framerate. I still play at 162 frames, though lol.
Do they really expect me to buy him again when the only difference is that he's sitting down instead of standing up?
I'm going to, I'm such an easy fucking mark
Didn't have any trouble with wave 50 bugging, but definitely had multiple chests not dropping anything (I assume the same for the 2 others too given they kept shooting and punching the chests). Not a massive deal as they would seemingly drop on the floor at some point before the next boss, but not sure what happens if you die inbettween that.
This post has turned my world upside down. Apparently this is also why the Seraph Towers lock on to me so fast. I thought the designers were just sadists.
This has always been the case with the PC version. There's a lot of things it affects, even damage from enemies like champions.
On the plus side, you do a lot more damage with Leviathan's Breath with high framerate!
Got two shinys at the same tme. One from round 10 chest and one from the weekly pinnacle. I'll never get this lucky in Destiny ever again. All down hill from here.
Just because probability was bad to you doesn't mean it is a waste, they released exactly how it works for once so we know it isn't.
Attuning gives you a flat 50% chance for that weapon from activity chest drops (it doesn't affect the Bravery chest in the hall or Shaxx engrams, those are all equal chance), and splits the other 50% equally between all other weapons you have unlocked. Losing 5 50/50s assuming you're 100% sure you attuned to Mountaintop (claiming any new weapon from the quest makes you change your attunement so it might've been on Hammerhead) and they were all only from the activity chests sucks and is rare (about a 3% chance if my math isn't wrong) but certainly possible.
Avalon won't go away. It will be in the exotic rotator either next season, or the season after that.
They have learned their lesson with exotic missions and are keeping all of them. Even the the ones that aren't that great--looking at you Vox Obscura.
Yeah but the Queensguard Title won't be earnable anymore, Seasonal Titles get Vaulted after each year.
Oh lol, I missed that part. Now that you mention it, I should probs unlock that that while I still have time.
I did a Hero Nightfall and it gave 5 whopping percentage towards my Hung Jury progress. Back to Shuro Chi I go.
Sony needs to forcefully install Destiny 2 on every ps5 that players cant delete. That way theyll be hooked the second they jump in.
So Vizier Regalia is how i make igneous look like the old one.
I guess😅.
Can the old Trials shaders be acquired from dismantling items now? I've been hoping some day Bungle would let us get the shaders off those items. I've kept an old Eye for a long time now, because it has Cobalt Clash on it.
When you log in it will automatically start Destiny 2 and will ask you with 5 different prompts if you are sure you want to quit the game.
then when you select another game, it will ask you "are you sure you wouldn't rather be playing Destiny 2?"
I think the tokens is a easy way for them to make going all they way worth it. Like round 40 and 50 should give you like 40 and 50 tokens each or something. 10 and 20 should give the same (hell none even so if people are just there for that stupid 20 wave bounty they get very little but it), 30 gives 10 I guess just to make it a nice 100 for doing the rounds 30, 40 and 50.
The weapons from the waves and then 10+ from the box where you can very quickly change your attuned weapon I think would be very worthwhile.
Has Bungie said anything about adding in other races into Onslaught beyond just Hive and Fallen? I swear I remembered them talking about the Taken at some point. Although I'd imagine that if they were going to add more races before The Final Shape, they would have been added in this week since it's the halfway point in terms of introducing new loot.
I think they said the Taken were up to something during one of the preview streams, or something like that. Maybe they'll be added in a few weeks (maybe alongside Zero Hour?).
I dont believe so.
Sometimes people dont know whats best for them so this would just be getting the word out in a peaceful way.
I joined a random LFG on Spire on the final boss and I got the Hierarchy of Needs to drop. Holy crap.
Can I borrow your luck when I go buy a lottery ticket please?
Is it that lucky? I got it on my 10th Spire clear. I got Buried Bloodline in 5 clears. Now I'm shooting for the Navigator, I got 10 Ghosts clears as well.
Thank you :)
I do find it funny that RNG is one of the problems many players have against Destiny 2 and yet some of them jumped into Warframe, a game with much worse hair-pulling RNG
5 Clears for BB? It took me 23... Over 16 for Navigator...
Yeah I was surprised when it dropped. Hopefully I get the Navigator soon too like you did, it helps I enjoy that dungeon too and the swim underwater is actually not bad now for me.
No, you have reduced blast radius, so that will do more damage than 100 blast radius with Spike Grenades, because Mountaintop does more impact damage due to its frame type. It's a very small increase in damage, but welcome nonetheless. And you have the barrel and magazine combo that people have been farming for (Hard Launch and Implosion Rounds), a true godroll.

SUNSETTING IS DEAD
One problem we encountered when designing Fireteam Power was Power limits found on older gear items. You might have noticed as you read about Fireteam Power that the Adjusted Power shared by the Power Leader would sidestep the caps on old Power limited items, making it possible to ignore them. After thoroughly considering the problem space, we came to the decision to remove Power limits from all items starting in The Final Shape.
Always being able to play with your friends was a huge goal for us. As we close out the Light and Darkness saga, we want to rally all Guardians (active, returning, and new) to help fight the Witness, and there is no better way to play Destiny than with your fireteam. As we pursued this goal, it became apparent that Power limits were fundamentally incompatible with Fireteam Power.
We understand that many old Power limited items have been dismantled by this point, and we regret that we have no recovery mechanism for these. Going forward, we intend to reintroduce sources for most or all of these, updated to modern Destiny sandbox standards with added properties such as Origin Traits and buildcrafting perks (as we have started to do with the BRAVE arsenal in Destiny 2: Into the Light).https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/article/this_week_in_destiny_04_25_24
