    How to play all Destiny 2 content solo. Don't have to compete against teammates for kills in strikes anymore.

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 07:09 AM PDT

    Being able to play various activities completely solo has been something a lot of people wish for in Destiny, and while other solutions already exist these are Powershell Scripts. While they work, they don't really tell you, at a glance, whether or not the script is enabled. So I decided to create my own program for this situation, Destiny 2 Solo-Enabler.

    TL; DR

    I created a program, which enables players to play activities in Destiny 2 completely solo, at the click of a single button. It can be downloaded here: https://github.com/DrNoLife/Destiny-2-Solo-Enabler/releases

    Full Post

    As stated in the first section of the post, the purpose of the program is to give people the ability to play activities completely solo. The program does this by creating firewall rules thus blocking the game's ability to talk with the game servers. This basically means, the program does not hook into the game. The program does not talk with the game. The program does absolutely nothing with the game. The only thing the program does, is talk with your firewall. This in turn also means it needs administrator privileges.

    How to use it.

    I decided to also create a video tutorial showing how to install and use the program. The video has two versions of the tutorial, one short (40 seconds) and one long, about 5 minutes.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yunmINhf6c4

    However if you want a text based version of how to download and use it, here it goes:

    1. Find the download link.
      1. I will link it at the bottom of the post, including a link to the source code.
    2. When you start to download the program, your browser will try to block it. This is because the program is not signed. Honestly, I did not sign it, because I just don't know how, but it's something I'll be looking into in the future.
    3. To prevent your browser blocking it, click on the 3 dots next to the download, and click on "Keep".
    4. Afterwards the .exe should now be in your Downloads folder (unless you downloaded it to some other place). Double click on the program.
    5. Now Windows will give you a warning, exactly like your browser did. It does it for exactly the same reason. Click on "More info" and then click "Run anyway".
    6. Now the program will ask for administrator privileges, it does this, because it needs to handle firewall rules, which requires such privileges.
    7. After giving it administrator privileges, start Destiny 2 up, and go into orbit.
    8. Once in orbit, click on the big "Enable Soloplay" button in the program. Once this is done, you're going to be playing solo.
    9. To disable the program: The button has changed, now saying "Disable Soloplay", click on that button, and the program will turn off. Now you can play with others again.

    Blocking of program, why?

    As I mentioned in the guide right above, both your Browser and Windows will try to block the program, or well, give you a warning. This is due to something called "code signing".

    Code signing is basically a way to confirm that the program has not been changed in any way, since it was last signed, and also confirm the software author. However I'm just a Comp. Sci. student still within the first month of the education, so I just don't have the knowledge of how to sign software like that.

    If this blocking of the software turns you off from using it, there's not much I can do.The complete source code is up on GitHub, and everyone can take a look at it and see what is going on. Even for people not into code, I believe I have created enough comments for most people to understand what is going on.

    If enough people request it, I would also be willing to create a video going through every single file and line of code used in the project.

    FAQ / Ending notes

    If you have any questions for me about the program, feel free to ask them. However, please take a look at the FAQ on my Github Repository first, and see if the answer for your question is there already.

    However with all that said, I hope the program will provide some use for this community! Especially with Festival of the Lost coming around shortly (should help a lot with farming various activities)!

    See you all in the patrol zones! .. or well, not if you're using the program.

    Just imagine what's going to happen when Guardians find out they get super energy from capturing zones

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 04:58 PM PDT

    Move over Enhanced Ashes to Assets, there's a new sheriff in town. Intellect mods? Waste of five points -- just cap a zone. You know those Guardians who chase orbs to build their super? Basic players.

    Whole stat distributions might need to be rearranged. Free super energy from just capping a zone -- it's not a bug. Anything is possible.

    (If Lord Salad ever gets around to announcing it...)

    Last year, we spent $35 on Shadowkeep. It included one $10 season. This year, Beyond Light is $40. It doesn't come with a season. I hope we get a ton of content.

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 07:58 PM PDT

    As I went to preorder today, I noticed that and am now even more hopeful for the amount of content we will be getting in the expansion. Cant wait for beyond light!

    Worldline zero desperately needs a buff

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 02:00 PM PDT

    Now that the cool part of skating with worldline is gone, it is worse than falling guillotine in almost every way except for still being able to kind of launch your teammates. On top of that, it's exotic while falling guillotine is legendary. I think that having something like infinite tesseract would make it stand out while not being completely broken. At least you can still take advantage of the perk while not having a full bar of energy. Make it do less damage still with a lower bar of course but just give tesseract more usage or even just more damage overall

    I know none of you may care about this, but I have finally completed all raids as a solo player. Yeah that's pretty much it. I just wanted to say thank you to all the sherpas for all the hard work they do

    Wouldn’t it be cool if we get weapon ornaments by completing catalysts?

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 12:53 AM PDT

    Just an idea I had. Would be cool if this somehow happens. If you get a catalyst for an exotic, chances are you Like said weapon. So I think it'd be cool if they give you a random ornament for the weapon you likely use more than the rest. Same could be said about armor if or when they have catalysts.

    Mask of the Quiet One Needs a Buff

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 08:11 AM PDT

    Currently, MotQO rewards less than optimal gameplay to make the most out of it. A more positive way to look at it is that it's only truly useful as an 'oh shit!' backup that potentially keeps the user alive in dire situations. It's not bad outside of endgame material, but is pretty useless in any scenario where you can be killed instantly.

    One improvement that'd make it worth using in endgame activities would be to expand its 'ability regeneration from damage' to include ability regeneration from damage your barrier receives. Lastly, if your barrier breaks, you get a slight bump to health.

    This is one of the coolest looking exotic armors in the game, and I'd love it if it was more useful.

    Glitched into Menagerie from PVP Control!?

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 11:28 PM PDT

    So I was playing control and lost (of course). After the loss I inspected another player trying to figure out what shaders / gear they had then went into my triumphs to check my status. I'm working on the Tribute Hall / Bad JuJu catalyst and fully upgrading the Chalice of Opulence (I missed a few seasons in 2018 ish). Anyway.... The loading was taking much longer than usual so I exited the menu screen and I noticed that Blackout popped up real quick(?). I checked the roster and noticed 6 players(?) and after a few moments we loaded into the Menagerie!? Luckily I caught video of it right after Control ended and I got my Crucible rank up / gear notification, then the sequence as described above.

    Side note: I hope my Tribute Hall / Menagerie triumphs didn't somehow cause the glitch and drag those other players into the Menagerie with me. :-(

    First Vid is the end of control and the quick flash of Menagerie. Second vid is the loading into Menagerie. I could only message one of the other players due to PS4 settings, but they said they didn't capture the vid.

    Vid Capture PVP Control loads Menagerie

    Second vid with the unlucky players that got dragged to Menagerie w/me from Control

    This is why the Izanagi's Burden is an exotic you shouldn't miss out on.

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 08:42 AM PDT

    Hey, guardians! A lot of people always wonder what a good load-out is for raids. I thought I'd share with you my personal favourite gun to use, the Izanagi's burden.

    The Izanagi's Burden is one of the best exotic weapons and let me tell you why.

    • Honed Edge x4 allows for some amazing burst DPS.
    • If you use a Auto-loading Holster Grenade Launcher, you can hot swap after loading a honed edge round into the Burden, fire all of your grenade launcher shots, swap back to the burden, shoot the honed edge shot, reload, and swap back to grenade launcher.
    • This, if timed correctly will perfectly match the time it takes for auto-loading to reload your launcher.
    • Sniper Rifle Ammo Finders are easy to acquire from most activities.
    • Works well with the Remote Connection class mods since you can snipe most challenging enemies with honed edge.
    • Ammo isn't really an issue with appropriate finder and reserve mods.
    • The weapon rotation allows you to store a quick burst shot whenever you need it.
    • Allows the player to practice their weapon swapping and rotation skills.

    How to get it:

    1. You can get the Izanagi's from a long quest starting at Ada-1 with the mysterious box, this box will then need you to do all the forges (except Bergusia). Before the start of the second and third round, two small drones will spawn, destroy these for the maximum temper buff, this allows you to get the key from a chest at the end of the activity.
    2. When you have all of the three keys except for the Black Armory Key you can talk to Ada-1 to start the journey to acquire the final and last key.
    3. Head to the Leviathan (you can do this solo). Go down below the bridge you spawn at and activate the switches (from left to right) in the following sequence: 1, 5, 3, 2, 4, 6. This will open up a path along some pipes if you keep climbing up the ramps that will lead you to the underbelly and watchers that you need to kill for lenses.
    4. Next on the menu is 200 glimmering amethyst, you can get these at the EDZ in either strikes (recommend doing Lake of Shadows) or Public Events.
    5. You will now have to enter the Bergusia Forge and forge the last key.
    6. Next step requires the completion of a rare bounty, these have a chance to be rewarded when you turn in normal black armory bounties from Ada-1.
    7. Now you'll need to complete a Shattered Throne run, either solo or with a group.
    8. Finally you'll need to do a special Pyramidion Strike that rewards you with a mission where you will get the weapon frame.
    9. Turn this mission in and behold the beauty that is the Izanagi's Burden.

    Bonus: To get the catalyst you must have a masterworked chalice and complete a heroic menagerie.

    Hope this guide inspired you to try it out for yourself!

    Bane of Crota Shell

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 09:14 PM PDT

    So I'm going for harbinger title, and the only thing I need is one more time trial and the altars of sorrow ghost shell, but the drop rate is abysmally low. Two questions:

    -Will it only drop from a specific boss?

    -Do you only get one chance per week?

    Content vaulting is the best thing that happened to me

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 12:43 AM PDT

    I'm sure there are many guardians experiencing the same thing, but the upcoming content vault has pushed me to give a proper shot to LFG - something I always put off due to anxiety.

    It's such a suprisingly effective and chilled thing to do! I'm finally experiencing (really cool) endgame content after all these years, easily finish quests that have been staring at me sometimes since launch and it really revitalized my love for this game. I have a mic, but never had to use it - text is fine where some coordination is needed, but often that is not necessary either when you all know what to do.

    And SO MANY awesome guardians helping randoms with harder quests just for the sake of it - I'm amazed. I use the Discord PC LFG that has plenty of people online during off-peak as well, and I can only recommend it.

    The only thing I am missing are raids at this point, which might be a bit tricky because I can only play late night (10pm onwards / EU), which seems to be off-peak raiding times for both EU and NA. I'd prefer a clan for this, but I can't join during their regular schedules. Oh well, maybe when my kids are a bit older. :)

    Eyes up guardians, and maybe see you in an LFG fireteam!

    EDIT: Ok, so just to make it clear, I'm not celebrating content being taken out. I am happy about the personal change this caused, that ultimately makes me enjoy the game even more. I very much look forward conquering these planets back in a polished up state later though!

    Wayfarer. Content Vault. SECRET VICTORIES - Do it now!

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 11:44 AM PDT

    Guys.

    I was so heartbroken a while ago when I realized that I may have missed out on Wayfarer solely because of this Emblem, after reading this post

    I think the experience for new players is crazy because so much of the information comes from the community, meaning a lot of it is dated. Everyone has a different answer because they changed it along the way.

    If you have been working on Wayfarer, unlocking Osiris weapons, killing EP bosses, doing exotic quests and panicking over the weekly Flashpoint -- please, Please, PLEASE don't miss out on Wayfarer due to Secret Victories in your Forsaken collection badge.

    Checking Braytech, I somehow did 2/6 -- no idea which ones but I guess enough for now. All my attention has been on Reckoner/Blacksmith/Shadow - I thought I only had to worry about Flashpoints for Wayfarer at this point..

    If you haven't done any then you have to do your first THIS WEEK.

    Now!

    We Have Six weeks and I'm guessing each challenge is specific which means this is the final rotation.

    If you are going for Wayfarer and already have the IO flashpoint triumph completed, start this (and Mercury's flashpoint) now. JUST DO IT.

    6 weeks left to get outbreak perfected and complete the catalyst

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 02:40 PM PDT

    To start you'll need to complete the quest to get outbreak perfected.

    https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-08-21-destiny-2-outbreak-perfected-quest-fallen-transponder-6007

    Then you'll need to complete the zero hour heroic 5 times. When you beat it the first time you'll get the catalyst and 20% of the SIVA particles will be applied. You'll need to complete it 4 more times and it can only count once per week. It's possible to complete the catalyst in three weeks if you complete a puzzle.

    The quest can only be launched on the character that you finished the quest on.

    If only Forge shaders dropped on the damn Paladin Sparrow...

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 04:51 AM PDT

    I'm currently chasing the Rasmussen Shader from the Volundr forge.

    Haven't had any luck so far. It's the last one that I'm missing.

    But without fail, every single ignition, that cursed sparrow drops. It even dismantles slow to spite you.

    They could at least have been useful if they had a chance to drop shaders.

    Anyway, back to the grind.

    Played the Prophecy Dungeon for the First Time the Other Day.

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 01:37 PM PDT

    Wow. What a unique, semi challenging, and fun quest. I had no idea about the sparrow part. I don't usually watch trailers or anything, so I saw absolutely nothing about that part. I'm sure people in the community hold races on the fucking thing. They would have to lol. But yeah, me and two random people from the LFG Destiny 2 Discord were cracking the hell up about some funny deaths or lucky breaks while descending the ribbons.

    So yeah, only done the Prophecy dungeon once, but am definitely going to play it again. Probably right now as soon as I'm done in the bathroom lol.

    Optimized Bounties For 2020/10/03

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 10:30 AM PDT

    Deer trivia: Despite not having antlers themselves, does have a big impact on the development of their male children's antlers. They contribute to the genetics side of things, but also to the environmental development of antlers as well – they are responsible for the nutrition of their still-developing fetuses and fawns, and any shortfalls there can impact antler development later in life.


    Step 1 - Ask your mom where she went so wrong with you. Unless you have antlers, that is. If that's the case, get off the internet. Humans and cats only.

    Step 2 - Pick up the following Dailies. Weeklies can be found here.

    Tower Bounties:

    • Zavala Daily – One Shot, One Kill – 25 Precision Kills
    • Zavala Daily – Show Them The Light – 5 Super Kills in a Strike

    • Ada-1 Daily – Secure the Lost Forges – Kill 50 Enemies During a Forge
    • Ada-1 Daily – Lost Forge Power Kills – 10 Power Weapon Kills in a Forge
    • Drifter Daily – Reaper: Reaping in the Crucible – Kill 10 Enemies in the Crucible
    • Drifter Daily – Invader: Invading By Surprise – Kill 20 Enemies From Behind or Without Taking Damage
    • Prismatic Recaster Daily – Head Honcho – Kill a Boss

    Planetaries:

    • Eris Morn – Moon Cheese – Loot 5 Chests on the Moon
    • Eris Morn – One-Way Ballistics – 15 Kinetic Weapon Streak Kills on the Moon
    • Eris Morn – Final Termination – Kill 7 Vex With Finishers on the Moon
    • Asher Mir – Frank Exchange of Views – Kill 30 Taken on Io
    • Asher Mir – Handcrafted – 15 Melee Kills on Io

    Step 3 - Follow these steps:

    1. Fly to Io, grab Asher's bounties, then clear the Festering Core Strike. (15 minutes)
    2. Play one-to-two matches of Iron Banner. (10-20 minutes)
    3. Clear the Gofannon Forge. (10 minutes)
    4. Fly TO THE MOOOOOOOOOOOOON, grab Eris's bounties, then loot 5 chests in Archer's Line. When done, slay out and finish Vex in the cave near the Lunar Battlegrounds. (10 minutes)

    Total Non-Elemental Non-Weapon-Specific Bounties Cleared:

    • 15 Dailies
    • Probably Zavala's "3 Strikes, 150 Taken" Weekly
    • Probably some Iron Banner bounties by now

    Total Time: 45-55 minutes

    Bounties Per Minute: .3

    Rewards:

    • 80,000 XP (unmodified)
    • 12,000 XP per Tower Weekly (unmodified)

    Season Ranks Per Hour:

    Extra Weapon/Elemental Specific Bounties:

    • Zavala: Arc, Bow Kills in Strikes
    • Banshee: Bow, Scout Rifle, Sword, Arc Weapon Kills
    • Asher Mir: Void Kills on Io
    • Ada-1: Machine Gun Kills in a Forge
    • Failsafe: Solar Kills on Nessus
    • Put 'em all together: Run a Bow, Scout Rifle, and Sword in the Strike. One Arc, one Void. Then run a Solar MG in the Forge. This is 9 extra bounties for 54,000 XP.
    • Eris wants Auto Rifle kills on the moon. Just use a Kinetic AR to clear One-Way Ballistics to get this one too.
    • Titan's bounties are quick with an Arc Power Weapon.
    • Mercury's bounties are quick with a Void weapon.

    Thanks for helping me with Beautiful but Deadly!

    Posted: 03 Oct 2020 11:11 PM PDT

    I am working on finishing off my Blacksmith seal, but I still had to finish all of my forge weapon kills. The last one I had left was Gofannon, and needed 500 kills with Le Monarque. I was prepared to spend a while farming kills and having to reload forges while people speedrun through them, but on my first run I ran into u/Bouncer2828 and Corndog, who kept the timer running and let me farm all 500 of my kills. They saved me a ton of time, and were even healing me as I went. Big thanks, you two saved me a ton of time and irritation.
