| Posted: 09 Sep 2020 09:08 AM PDT Source: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/49527 On this day, six years ago, players all over the world began a grand adventure. Since then, over 167 million Guardians have joined our ranks and championed the Light for over 8.6 billion hours. During that time, this community has answered the call time and time again, raising over $8.5 million for Little Lights and worthy causes all over the world. So, when it comes to defending humanity, whether you're in the 31% that smash, the 31% that love space magic, or the 38% that make cloaks look good, we're humbled that you have chosen to make the Tower your home. And now, as we stand at the precipice of a new era, ready to step beyond the Light, we should at least have some cake first. So, let's light the candles and celebrate with the friends we've made in this truly incredible community. From the Farm to the Moon, it's been a wild ride and we're incredibly proud to have you at our sides for all of it. Here's to the future – happy birthday, Destiny. Keep reading for a few birthday surprises to help you join the celebration as well as a couple of updates on new ways to play our favorite game. Destiny Birthday CakeInfinite cake technology still eludes us, but Victoria Rosenthal is getting closer! Not one to slow down after knocking it out of the park with the official Destiny cookbook, she's here to share her "Infinite Forest" Chocolate Cake with all of us. Find all the instructions you'll need to transmat yours below. Difficulty: Hard Prep Time: 24 hours Cook Time: 2 hours Servings: 1 cake Dietary Notes: Dairy Cherry Filling Ingredients: ¾ pound cherries (fresh or frozen), pitted and cut in half 2 tbsp water 3 tbsp honey ¼ cup sugar
The night before, combine cherries, water, honey, and sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 30 minutes (if using frozen cherries, simmer for about 45 minutes). Cook until the liquid has reduced by ¼. Place the mixture in a bowl, cover, and allow to rest in the refrigerator overnight. Cake Ingredients: ¾ cup cocoa powder ⅓ cup cherry fruit spread ¾ cup hot water 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp salt 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature 1 ½ cups sugar 2 eggs, room temperature 1 tbsp vanilla extract ¾ cup sour cream Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk together cocoa powder, cherry fruit spread, and hot water in a small bowl. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time. Mix in vanilla extract. Add the cocoa powder mixture. Mix in half of the flour until it just comes together. Mix in the sour cream. Add the remainder of the flour and mix until fully combined. Spray two 9-inch baking pans with nonstick spray. Split the batter between the two pans and place in the oven to bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until done. Remove the cakes from the baking pans and allow to cool completely. Frosting Ingredients: 1 ½ cups butter, room temperature 16 oz cream cheese, room temperature ½ tbsp vanilla extract ¼ cup maraschino cherry liqueur 4 cups confectioners' sugar Place the cream cheese and butter in a large bowl and mix together. Add the vanilla extract and maraschino cherry liqueur. Once mixed together, begin to slowly add the confectioners' sugar. Whisk until the frosting thickens. Additional Ingredients: Fresh cherries to top, optional To assemble the cake, make sure both cake layers are level. Place the bottom layer on a plate and top with a portion of the frosting. Add the cherry filling in the center, spreading it close to the edge but not completely. Cover the filling with additional frosting. Top with the other layer of cake. Top with the remaining frosting. Decorate with fresh cherries on top. HD WallpaperA new poster inspired by some of Destiny's most beloved characters went live on the Bungie Store today (US/EU), but if you can't wait for shipping to get it to you, here's a glorious digital HD preview. New CollectiblesAlongside the poster mentioned above, there's also a new birthday mug, t-shirt, and if your sweet tooth isn't sated by the cake you just baked, check out the new Destiny cookie cutter set. Xbox Game PassStarting on September 22, both Forsaken and Shadowkeep are coming to Xbox Game Pass! That makes this the perfect time to binge the story before it's time to get your passport stamped and head off to Europa. Beyond Light Stasis Deep DivesLast week, we began unveiling details around the three new Stasis subclasses in Beyond Light. Starting with the Warlock Shadebinder, we followed that up with the Titan Behemoth. The final deep dive focusing on the Hunter Revenant went live yesterday. They're a fantastic read if we do say so ourselves and (much like a fireteam) function as three pieces of a whole. So, in case you missed any, you can find them here: [[[data-content-id='49519' data-template-type='Inline' ]] Now let's blow out these candles, get our coats, and dance with the Darkness.

| Posted: 09 Sep 2020 04:27 PM PDT 6 months.From September of 2015 to April of 2016, there was no new content added to Destiny (barring Heroic King's Fall and King's Fall challenges which released shortly after). For those who weren't around then, this place was shit to browse. People were out for blood, bringing pitchforks to the TWABs and shouting week after week "TLDR nothing". In April we were given a free mini expansion, consisting of a small quest chain that unlocked a Strike, an updated Arena, and a few new weapons. In hindsight, this was because Activision was pushing hard for Destiny 2, and Bungie had to buy time with not only the April update, but Rise of Iron as well. Recently, I've seen a lot of people bitching about how bad it is that Bungie postponed the finale of Interference until Beyond Light comes out. Yeah it sucks, but people are acting like this is the straw that breaks the camel's back. I've seen comments like
or some variation thereof. Oh no, instead of playing the game and taking a break you have to...uh...take a break and then play the game?...hm. To continue, a huge point of contention recently has been the FOMO element. People feeling like they have to play every week since the season is time sensitive and they might miss something if they don't play that week. While I admit that it's a problem, if anything, this is an unintended boon in that regard: 8 more weeks to catch up on missed Interference lore books. 8 more weeks to grind out that perfect roll on must-haves. 8 more weeks to do all the stuff that's going away. On that point, it's not like it's even 2 months of nothing. Next month we have Festival of the Lost, which historically isn't anything super special but there's new stuff to earn there. You won't be twiddling your thumbs waiting. Honestly, I'd bet good money that you have Triumphs you haven't earned. Emblems you haven't obtained. There's 2,922 triumphs in the game. There's surely something you can find to do to pass the time. Yeah it sucks that it's delayed. But you can't blame Bungie for wanting to polish the game more due to COVID impacting the world and fucking up how things would've been (if anything you should be applauding the decision to extend the cycle instead of implementing heavy crunch time) just because you can't wait 2 months.

| Posted: 09 Sep 2020 06:09 AM PDT Thanks for bringing this amazing universe to life, its been a bit rough sometimes, but the endless exploring, secrets, beautiful vistas, the weapons, the powers, the raids and more importantly the friends (and enemies) we've all made. I know a lot of people rag on D2, but its a game thats helped me through some rough periods in my life, makes me forgot real life for a bit and lets me feel like the Space Gandalf I always wanted to be. Here's to more years of fun, overpowered weapons, nerfs, buffs and ridiculous events, I LOVE it. Have a Pine-Apple or some Rice and Raisins on me Edit: Thanks for the awards I shall feast on the finest Gjallardoodles with your kindness [link] [comments] |
| The Farm is a better social space than The Tower Posted: 09 Sep 2020 08:16 PM PDT |
| So after 1,5 years I unlocked The Platinum Starling ship and here is what I think about it Posted: 09 Sep 2020 03:06 PM PDT It is IMO one of the best looking ships in the game and it takes a long time to acquire as well as a big grind... ...and that's EXACTLY how one of the coolest items in the game should be acquired! Same goes for the taken sparrow from the Dreaming City. Had a blast acquiring it, took a long time/dedication and it is an epic and unique item. At least one of these items per season or even per year is not too much to ask I think. [link] [comments] |
| Saladin, give this poor woman a thicker coat. Posted: 09 Sep 2020 04:42 AM PDT Can't you see she's freezing? EDIT: wow guys. Thanks for both the 1k upvotes and the awards. This community is wholesome. EDIT 2: seriously guys, you're amazing. I can't emphasise it more. Thank you all. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Sep 2020 05:54 AM PDT Would love to see how awesome they are, especially Asher, being a man of knowledge and science, I'd love to see what he could do when he " Throws Down ". I wonder what subclass he would use [link] [comments] |
| I don't think bungie gets enough recognition for keeping destiny 1 servers up Posted: 09 Sep 2020 09:27 AM PDT It's allowed so many players to go back and enjoy the game a second time and for newer players like me to go back and experience it in all its glory. Thank you bungo. [link] [comments] |

| Yo... The Destiny Soundtracks Slap Posted: 09 Sep 2020 08:37 PM PDT The Last Array, Journey, the Queenswalk, Sanctified Mind, Rise of Iron, The Traveller, like damn this game has some music EDIT: I've been listening to D1 music since I posted this and holy shit I'm getting hit with TSUNAMIS of nostalgia [link] [comments] |
| Traveler's Chosen Six Rocket Autoloading Combo Posted: 09 Sep 2020 05:41 PM PDT Here is the video if that's all you need. If you want an explanation, hello! Traveler's Chosen opens up a LOT of wacky builds, so here's a Hunter loadout capable of unloading six rockets about as fast as you can post-Lunafaction/Rally nerf. To set this up, the critical pieces are Traveler's Chosen, a Rocket Launcher with Demolitionist, and the Sixth Coyote chestpiece. I used Heretic for the RL, but it is being sunset next season, so your only option for a Demolitionist RL moving forward is Hoosegow from Prophecy. (Unless I'm forgetting another RL that can roll Demo) Demolitionist allows me to throw a grenade after firing the first rocket, immediately reloading the RL thanks to Demolitionist, allowing for another rocket shot. A marksman's dodge followed by a rocket and another marksman's dodge and rocket gets us up to four total rockets fired. Swapping to a 10x Gathering Light Traveler's Chosen and activating its ability restores my grenade and one dodge charge completely. Swapping back to the RL, I can throw a grenade, shoot a rocket, dodge, and shoot my sixth and final rocket, completely emptying my reserves. Additionally, if you were Nightstalker, (like I didn't think to be for this demonstration) an Oppressive Darkness grenade would add yet another layer to this by debuffing whatever enemy is unfortunate enough to be in front of you.

| Posted: 09 Sep 2020 03:26 PM PDT Double primary is no fun, especially when dealing with extremely high health Champions, so Traveller's Chosen barely misses being an option. Please please please please please think about champion properties for exotic weapons being released in the future so we don't have to be disappointed when we get yet another exotic that isn't applicable in endgame content that they SHOULD be applicable in [link] [comments] |
| Fuck all the negative shit. What do you like about Destiny 2? Posted: 09 Sep 2020 06:13 PM PDT |
| So let me get this straight... Posted: 09 Sep 2020 11:02 PM PDT In the latest evacuation lore, we now know the conclusion to all soon to be vaulted planets vendors. Sloane becomes iron man with god powers and shoulder charge the darkness head-on! Asher solos a GM Pyramidion! Also, finally found that lake he has been talking about for the past 4 years, and turn into a....vex? Vance pulls a Kratos and stabs his darkness self's eyes out with his own hands! ( he wasn't a bitch after all) Ana plans to turn Rasputin into the Terminator!( love were big red's arc is going) I love this game and its lore so fucking much. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Sep 2020 12:53 PM PDT I was a heavy HC user through the first two years of D2. 30k on Midnight Coup, 13k on Duke, 22k on Spare Rations. I have not seriously used a hand cannon in greater than one year, and it makes me very sad. PremiseI'm here today to talk with you about why and how Hand Cannons, arguably the signature weapon of the franchise, are no longer viable in PvE and haven't been since the launch of Shadowkeep. I haven't seriously used a hand cannon since Shadowkeep has dropped. Sure, on occasion I run one for Unstoppable... not because I want to, and generally with Divinity plus LMG with the latter used as a primary. The HC is a device to handle Champions, nothing more. This is a travesty, but a lot of people don't understand why they feel so bad today. I'm here to change that. DefinitionsFalloff distanceThis is the distance where damage begins to decrease. Most people only think of falloff in terms of this. Falloff damage floorThis is a percent - relative to the optimal range damage - which is the lowest amount of damage a weapon will deal. 100% would be no falloff. 50% means the weapon damage decreases, but only to half of max even at infinite range. 33% means beyond falloff, the weapon will only do 1/3 the optimal amount. This is absolutely key, but underappreciated. Precision modifiersThe amount of bonus damage from hitting an enemy crit spot versus body shot. ShadowkeepCompared to Forsaken, the global sandbox changes significantly harmed HCs
That was bad enough, but there was another change - once which was arguably worse, and truly sealed the fate of Hand Cannons: The single most severe and problematic balance change made to HCs was changing the falloff damage floor to 33% from 50%! This last point is why they feel so bad now. Beyond around 35 meters, Hand Cannons all hit like wet noodles. In contrast, virtually every other primary in the game has a damage floor of 50%, including SMGs and Sidearms. A stable SMG or Sidearm loses bullet magnetism but can still do solid damage at relatively high range because every shot that hits, is doing half the damage at 100m that it would have done at 10m. This means HCs have virtually no niche. Out to the mid-20m range, SMGs will do more DPS because they're designed to. HCs technically do better from there into the mid-30m range - but then the SMGs actually win again for all ranges beyond, as the HC damage floor of 33% is so incredibly, unnecessarily aggressive. Even beyond this, rapid firing weapons are able to better calibrate their damage to any enemy HP pool because each shot does less. It's the opposite of The Price is Right: the lowest amount of damage just above the enemy health pool is optimal. Solutions
Thanks for coming to my TED talk! Hopefully HCs are viable again in Beyond Light. [link] [comments] |
| My Only Hope For When They Bring Back VOG Posted: 09 Sep 2020 06:48 PM PDT Please buff scouts so I can use Vision of Confluence again... I miss that gun so much Also no champions. I guess that's two but seriously. No champions. [link] [comments] |

| Friendly Reminder, Do your Weekly Bounties Posted: 09 Sep 2020 01:12 PM PDT We've got 9 weeks left in this season, so doing all 6 weekly bounties will net you 1,200 Bright Dust per character each week. Meaning just logging in on one character and doing only those, will bank you 10,800 Bright Dust for the new season. All three characters would bank you 32,400 Bright Dust. We don't quite know how the weekly bounties are getting reworked yet, so might be worthwhile to stock up on Bright Dust while there isn't much else going on in game. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Sep 2020 11:33 AM PDT Hey ! The last time I came around was before Shadowkeep, where I shared my checklist website to help you grind the relevant items before Shadowkeep launches. This time around I doubled down on the features and you can now experience the ultimate checklist for your Beyond Light prep : ==> https://destinyrecipes.com/checklist <== Goals
Features
Prep ScoreThe Prep Score is the new addition to my checklist. The more you progress towards 100% on the whole checklist, the more points you gain, up to 500. Once you have completed all "100%" goals on the checklist you will start gaining bonus points at a lower pace. A global leaderboard and a one for your clan are available to see how you place against others. Note: This feature is brand new and will evolve over time DestinyRecipesThe destinyrecipes website is a collection of tools that will grow over time. Right now there's 2 other "recipes" available : - Sunset/Power-cap : A tool to check which weapons and which gears will be sunset, and when, with filters and all. Helps you clean your vault. - chalice.recipes, which you probably already know BugsThere will be bugs. It's normal, don't panic. Just contact me on u/wobow or '@ChaliceRecipes' on twitter with screenshots if possible :) Future Updates:- Localization: I cannot translate for every language. The game entities are translated thanks to bungie, but the rest of the website is in english for now. I will tackle this issue in a future update - Available bounties: You will be able to see which bounties you have not done yet. Available in the next update in a week or so. Thanks for you time, and enjoy the checklist. I hope you like it ! ==> https://destinyrecipes.com/checklist <==Please don't break it [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 09 Sep 2020 03:21 PM PDT Ive been sherpa'ing this mission a lot recently for people who still need the weapon and catalyst done before the season ends, so i decided to do a solo run where i complete the entire thing including the chests and Oracle puzzle without dying. Overall a really fun challenge and one im glad i could complete before The Whisper gets vaulted! Subclass used: Top Tree Nightstalker Armor used: Stompees/Sixth Coyote Weapons used: Night Watch, Gnawing Hunger, Goldtusk, then switched to Mountaintop, Ikelos SMG, Falling Guillotine at various phases. Mods used: Oppressive Darkness, All 4 Taken mods from the Last Wish raid. Link to the run: https://youtu.be/Ev1hIvb-AMQ [link] [comments] |
| Happy Birthday, Destiny. I made this for you. Posted: 09 Sep 2020 09:59 PM PDT It was nice to run around D1 again for a bit today. Threw this together as I went for my own tribute to the places we've been in six years. Here's to the future of Destiny! [link] [comments] |
