PVE Breakdown of nearly every Damage Resistance Mod, Exotic, and Ability Posted: 18 Sep 2020 07:39 AM PDT While I was running Prophecy I wondered: "What was the actual resistance provided by stacking mods?" I went down a Rabbit hole for 2 weeks and this is what I came back with: Damage Resistance Guide Cheat SheetI highly recommend using the above if you need a quick version of how Damage Resist works. For more details, continue reading or check out the spreadsheet Spreadsheet with full details, charts, and breakdowns of Mods, Exotics, and AbilitiesThis only pertains to PVE, as modifiers in PVP are generally different. ResilienceResilience is unfortunately not very useful in PVE aside from providing increased Barrier regen time for Titans. Each Tier of Resilience is effectively a 1-2% increase in overall shield, which ends up only being about a 0.5% increase in your overall resistance to damage. Concussive DampenerAt 15% resistance, and stacking up to a staggering 55.6%, it significantly outperforms other stackable mods. Most hard-hitting damage sources count as Area of Effect (AOE) damage and are reduced by this mod.
Arc, Solar, and Void ResistUnfortunately, elemental resists only provide a 5% resistance and stacks in a standard fashion
Minor, Major, and Boss ResistMinor, Major, and Boss Resist mods provide a stacking 10% resistance. However, this decreases in effectiveness faster than other mods. I would not recommend stacking more than 3 mods as this increase drops below even elemental resist.
Important note: For the purposes of Damage Resistance only, elite enemies with a Triangle Icon, including Champions, are actually considered Boss enemies. Use Boss Resist to decrease damage from them. For Weapon Damage mods, you would use Major Spec to increase damage to Champions and other Elite enemies.
Fallen, Hive, and Taken BarrierEnemy Barrier mods provide a 20% damage resistance AFTER having received damage from those sources. It does not stack with itself. However, Taken Barrier will stack with Hive or Fallen barrier for 36% resistance to those enemies. Light Levels effect on Damage Resistance and Damage DealtEssentially, as you approach the Power level of the activity; received damage drops substantially. After you reach the activity power level; received damage continues to decline slowly. This drop-off does not seem to have a cap. Contest mode activities such as Grand Master Nightfalls, are not affected by this. Regarding Damage dealt, there are more details in the spreadsheet. It would seem that there are two curves that are combined to effect weapon damage. The first curve applies to your overall light level and stops increasing at the recommended power level. The second curve continues to increase until the weapon itself is at the recommended power level +20. The takeaway from this is that you should infuse your weapons as high as possible up to the power level cap of the activity minus your artifact level. A bit of Math - How Damage Resistance combinesIn almost all cases, the way Damage resistance combines is the same. The Resistances are each applied to the incoming damage, reducing it sequentially. If you want to determine your percentage of incoming Damage from a source, you can calculate it as follows: ReceivedDamage = (1-Resist_1) * (1-Resist_2) * (1-Resist_3) * (.......) For example: If you are attacked by a Taken Echo Knight and you have Taken Barrier 20%, Hive Barrier 20%, and 2x Concussive Dampener 27.75%: (1-20%) * (1-20%) * (1-27.75%) = 46.24% incoming Damage, or effectively 53.76% total resistance. Sword BlockingSword blocking is highly dependent on both the frame of the sword, and the sword guard chosen. These are the stats of sword blocking with Temptation's Hook with different Guard perks.
Expect different results with different swords Super ResistanceMost Supers have about a 80% resistance. This is while they are active in the case of roaming supers, and while being cast in the case of supers like Nova Bomb and Blade Barrage. Environmental Damage is handled a little differently, and you only have about a 50% resistance to damage in those same supers Neither Golden Gun super seems to have any Damage Resistance provided. ExoticsFor each exotic that offers a damage resistance or "reduces incoming damage" perk, the following information applies:
Exceptions and Special CasesMost other cases, exotics, and other resistance attributes are in the Google sheet The few exceptions to how damage resistance combines:
A note on OvershieldsOvershields were not tested thoroughly as there are some difficulties with testing them and inconsistencies when being applied. For Example, the overshield from Saint-14's helm with Bubble is a different amount then the overshield from the defensive strike melee ability. Couple this with overshield abilities that recharge separately from your shield bar and health, and the elemental aspect of some Overshields makes them difficult to gauge and measure. Testing MethodologyTo begin, most tests were performed using a "base" damage from a consistent source where possible. These were performed at 1083 light (1060 base , +23 Artifact) with Tier 0 resilience armor. List of some test locations and enemies:
Almost all tests were run with at least 2 sources of damage, and over multiple damage cycles. These were recorded at 2160x1440p 60fps (with some exceptions of verification tests by ABagOfPowder) and then transcribed using Tracker Video Analysis and Modeling Tool. Measurements for most tests were only taken from damage to the "Shield" portion of the Damage bar, as the "Health" portion is smaller and slightly more inconsistent. This data was then transferred to Excel where it was translated into individual tests and percentages were calculated from the pixel measurement differences. Where appropriate, this was used to calculate resistances or combined resistance information. You can find most of the data used in this Google Drive ErRors, Margin of Error, and RoundingDue to the way the Health bar is handled, there is definitely some rounding involved in the rendering. At 2160x1440 resolution, the shield portion of the health bar is 404 pixels wide, meaning a change in damage of 1% over the length of the bar SHOULD be measurable as a 4 pixel difference. In reality there seems to be some additional rounding, or integer math being done in damage calculations, leading to smaller damage sources actually being rounded up. For Example, Minor resist often measures 9.75% on Thrall melee, but closer to 10% on Hobgoblin snipers. This, coupled with other measurement issues, may mean that some tests are within 1-2% of the actual in game values. Some Damage Resistance, such as Warlock Nova Bomb, Titan Thundercrash, and Hunter Blade Barrage occur over such a brief period in time that resistance was difficult to test. Environmental damage was often used in these cases, however there is an environmental modifier applied while in super. This value was then used to determine what the "Base" damage resistance was for some of these supers. I may post more charts, and relevant clips both in the comments below, and on twitter. Thank You!Overall testing consisted of around 405 individual tests, processing about 23 gb of data, over one and a half hours of health bar footage, hundreds of screenshots, and lots of community sourcing for damage types, enemies, mods, and situations. Special thanks goes out to the people on the RaidSecrets discord, u/ABagOfPowder, u/Pirogoeth_, and Dzho for suggestions, testing, and measuring bars. Thank you @nev_rtheless for helping to copy edit and sanity check me. DIM for their help with sword stats & troubleshooting, and an awesome tool to help identify exactly which armor I needed for every test. And thank you clan WIPE...? for putting up with my testing. I'm sure they never want to hear this again: "Hey, who wants to sit in a Nightmare hunt or strike for an hour while I take damage and record clips?" EDIT:Holy %@&^#, you all are crazy with the rewards! Thank you very much! [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 18 Sep 2020 06:49 PM PDT I think it would be a nice little detail for when your using darkness subclasses and the lore behind is is that when you die in a restricted zone you lose control of your darkness and it eats you for failing to survive and thus following sword logic.

Posted: 18 Sep 2020 05:36 AM PDT Yes I know a little bit of it plays during Crucible's Bannerfall map as well, but I think all of us could agree that it should be played in its full glory. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 18 Sep 2020 03:08 AM PDT In the base game and in curse of osiris, the tone of the game was pretty cringy. It was like they were trying to be a marvel movie but without the jokes often landing. Removing the red war and curse of osiris will remove the tone that no longer fits inside the current world. Narratively, I'm pretty happy about that. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
I remade Mindlab Rasputin and Felwinter's Lie in my Warframe Dojo Posted: 18 Sep 2020 09:16 PM PDT My friends told me I should make a video for those rooms too so here that is. These are much, much older than the Riven room, but I figured our angsty red boi could get an honorary video too before... things... happen.

I designed my own raid, and it took forever Posted: 18 Sep 2020 12:42 PM PDT | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
A year since armor 2.0 came out and I finally got my 2.0 Orpheus Rigs!!! Posted: 18 Sep 2020 06:43 PM PDT Been playing constantly, every single week of going to Xur, and I finally got them from a Master NF. They actually have good stat distribution too! I immediately MW'd them. Hopefully they don't get kill nerfed in beyond light, but for now I'm really relieved.

We need a finisher that summons a Cabel Drop Pod on the enemy Posted: 18 Sep 2020 01:50 PM PDT We've all been killed by them, so I think it's high time we return the favor to them. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Bungie, Ghost 2.0 is awesome but we really need the ability to save loadouts. Posted: 18 Sep 2020 06:00 AM PDT I dunno about yall but I'm really tired if having to micromanage my mods between every activity. And I'm on PC so I cant imagine having to do it on console with the loading times. Im excited for Ghost 2.0 but this is going to make the problem even worse with all the different activity focused mods.

I’m not sure if xur’s is bugged or not but he is selling a 2 intellect apotheosis veil. Posted: 18 Sep 2020 10:25 AM PDT iirc, a TWAB said that the apotheosis veil would have a minimum of 16 intellect from that point in after the TWAB. But xur is selling a 2 intellect roll which contradicts what the TWAB said. Just curious as to what's going on. Also idk what flair to put Edit———————————— From: u/v0lsus https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/48827 • Apotheosis Veil • This Exotic is now guaranteed to drop with a minimum +16 to Intellect.

Unstoppable Pulse Mod procs on Exotic pulse rifles Posted: 18 Sep 2020 08:06 AM PDT I keep getting kicked off fireteams and asked why I'm running an Outbreak, guess it's not common knowledge that we have a mod that procs all pulses with the unstoppable shot.

Destiny's lore and story MIGHT be a retelling of Ragnarok! Posted: 18 Sep 2020 10:25 AM PDT
I began my research into this possible madness after noticing the pattern of rock that circles the floor around Eris Morn where she stands under the Tree of Silver Wings. I couldn't shack the feeling that it looked familiar somehow but I couldn't make out the pattern properly due to the available angels we can see it from. So I started to take screenshots and piecing together a sort of make-shift recreation. It's a circle, with nine different inner and outer rings, some connected at different points. When I'd finished making my recreation on some paper I realized it. It made what looks like a Maze, not just any maze tho. Troy Town or Turf Maze. So I did a little research and found this quote.
So I started to wonder, why would Bungie put a "Troy Town" Under the Tree? That seemed like a lot of extra work for such a minor detail that's been totally overlooked so far right? In my mind, it had to mean something. I thought it would probably just be a funny easter egg? So I did some more looking around the area and found an Ahamkara's skull hidden away. Strange right? Ahamkara skulls don't just randomly show up anywhere else as far as I could recall that didn't have some significance. Then like an angry Seige Breaker, a flaming hammer of Sol hit me. Here we had a giant Silver tree, with someone standing under it giving knowledge, surrounded by bones, pools of water, and a hidden Troy Town under it. This tree, it was Yggdrasil, Eris was Mimir and the Bones were Jormungandr or perhaps Níðhǫggr. From there, pieces of a secret puzzle began falling into place. Here are what I believe are the most important similarities.
Ragnarok is also called The Destiny of the God's. The great battle could be the Fallens invasion of earth. We saw in the D2 release trailer a part where hundreds of people are underwater.
Odin uses a Spear called Gungnir
Rasputin uses Poetry to communicate with us within some Adventures. He's an AI with untold knowledge of the Golden Age and its Tech. Rasputin in Real life was Royalty. Odin only has 1 eye and the Rasputin AI has 1 giant Red "eye" when we see him in person. Rasputin uses the Valkarie which in-game looks like a Spear A Valkarie is a female figure who
Odin had visions in Mythology which I think we can connect to Rasputin's ability to predict threats before they arise within the system. Odin also had two Ravens which he used to gather information, not unlike Rasputins War-Sat Network
Breytech has most of its important locations on Mars, a rather mountainous planet. Breytech "Smithed/Crafted" Weapons and tech. Anna and Elsie Bray could represent the Brothers Brokkr and Eitri.
Ash Tree's are "White" and the Tree in-game is also whitelist silver in color. Guardians consider the Tree of Silver Wings "Holy" to some extent
The Æsir /ˈaɪsɪər/[1] are the gods of the principal pantheon) in Norse religion. I'm going to be honest, finding good reliable info of this is harder then I thought but I think it's simply a play on words but there are some connections to be discussed. The Halls of Valhalla
Lord Shaxx could then be seen as Gangleri and the Daily Battles as the Crucible.
Perhaps such as the 3-week cycle of the Dreaming City? Loki is also a Trickster and Uldren uses cunning and tricks to win any fight we see him in within the Lore opting to use his intellect to compensate for what he lacks in strength. This would also make sense giving the fact Uldren ( though being controlled by Savathun) uses Tricks to help get Cayde-6 killed. I find this exchange within the Poetic Edda rather telling.
I think we could assume Ikora would be Frigg in this exchange and the part about "Never ride home" could be seen as how Uldren killed Cayde-6. Baldur Is called "the most Beloved" of the Norse gods. I think that sighting Cayde-6 as Baldur would be rather poetic and fitting given I believe Uldren to be Loki. Also, we have this quote from the Prose Edda.
We know Cayde-6 was a Goldgun/Blade Barrage Hunter ( the Solar Sub-classes) and within a single Lore card referred to as potentially being Rasputin himself. We know Felwinter WAS the son of Rasputin. This could be a play on the idea that Cayde-6 was the "Second son of Odin" Who I sighted as being Rasputin.
Makes me wonder why she's the one we meet under the Tree to gain insight into the messages from the Darkness.
Mimir lives under Yggdrasil, or in our case the Tree of Silver Wings, the place we meet her once a week for the Means to an End quest. Side Notes:Jotunn refers to Jotunheim which are the Giants from Norse Mythology.Le Monarque translates to The Monarch, a Royal Ruler but also a type of Butterfly which is depicted as a Black Armory Founding Family and shown on the Bow.
Izanagi's Burden refers to a god from Japanese mythology
The Ghallerhorn was the Warhorn used by Heimdallr to mark the beginning of Ragnarok. The JadeRabbit is based on Chines Mythology So that's everything I've compiled so far but I'm looking deeper into this to see what if any other references, connections, and details I can potentially uncover. If you know ANYTHING at all that could help further this theory PLEASE share it in the comments below.

Posted: 18 Sep 2020 09:22 AM PDT We never saw how we got back out of the Pyramid. Black Garden confrontation Just suddenly ends with us dropped into Sanctuary like in a dream. Eris gets back from her Europa skiing trip to find us curled around the Darkness ball, murmuring about Seraph tower basketball and Gambit being a public event.

If you don't have the matterscourge ornament for outbreak, I highly suggest you get it. Posted: 18 Sep 2020 08:57 AM PDT Even if you don't like the actual ornament, it changes the sights to be a single red dot. This makes it much easier (at least in my experience) to hit precision shots. I know lots don't like 'messy' sights, or just anything that's not a dot. So if you like outbreak, but aren't a massive fan of the sights, I'd get the ornament. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
If they made a rat king skin called Charlie Kelly I’d buy it so fast Posted: 18 Sep 2020 05:15 PM PDT IASIP has an episode called Charlie kelly: king of rats.

Posted: 18 Sep 2020 12:58 PM PDT Full disclosure: I still love Destiny 2 and this franchise, and I wasn't feeling bad about playing it. It's just that the grind during Grandmaster Strikes felt so good at the end. At one point, I got four Ascendant Shards, a couple of Exotic Armor pieces, Enhancement Prisms, etc. and that felt like a great value proposition for my time whilst also having fun. I always say you should play games to have fun, but if I can have fun and feel rewarded for my time too, then I'm more likely to do that over just pure fun. The rewards from these Strikes though just harken back to doing Raids on Hard Mode during Destiny 1. You would get showered with loot that could (or couldn't) be useful, but at least it was all upper tier for the most part. I'm having a blast this week, and I hope everyone else is having similar sentiments. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
We have a Chaotic Good Sphere, and Chaotic Evil Pyramids. Where are the Chaotic Neutral Cubes? Posted: 18 Sep 2020 04:20 PM PDT | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
[D2] Xûr Megathread [2020-09-18] Posted: 18 Sep 2020 10:02 AM PDT Xûr, Agent of the Nine Description: A peddler of strange curios, Xûr's motives are not his own. He bows to his distant masters, the Nine. Location: Giant's Scar, Io (in the cave on the far left) Exotic Gear:
Consumables:
What's a Xûr? Xûr, Agent of the Nine, is a strange vendor who randomly appears in a Public Sector on one of the Worlds. Xûr sells Exotic equipment and only takes Legendary Shards in exchange for them. TL;DR: He's the Santa Claus of Destiny and every weekend is Christmas. Sometimes he brings you what you want, sometimes he brings you coal. Mostly it's coal. When does Xûr visit? Xûr visits every Friday at 17:00 UTC and departs at Weekly Reset (Tuesday 17:00 UTC).

Whatever Bungie adds or takes away in the future, I hope they never remove the View Legacy node Posted: 18 Sep 2020 07:21 PM PDT Instead, please expand it! It's so refreshing to look and reminisce on the memories we've made and the guardians we made them with. Some of these guardians have moved on from this world and it's a nice reminder of their legacy.
