    I genuinely have not seen Ruinous Effigy used once or even discussed since it was nerfed with Beyond Light’s release

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 02:11 PM PST

    Except when I used it right now just to see how bad it was and made this thread in reaction to that fact.

    It's not just disappointing to see what happens when devs nerf PVE-focused content that very few people complained about... it's demotivating that one of the most unique weapons in this game is more or less gone.

    It's basically outclassed with every build of note. The drain attack can barely deal with yellow-barred enemies in 1220s. The special way that it rewarded aggressive play in PVE is almost entirely a relic of one season's past.

    I know this thread is just one of thousands criticizing this game right now, but it's just baffling to me that Bungie hard nerfed a fun, well-received weapon to practical uselessness. They even indirectly nerfed it further by nerfing Nezarec's Sin - another beloved exotic that it often comboed with - as well.

    It feels quite bad to vault Ruinous Effigy, but... goodbye. I won't forget your glory days.

    I have been watching banshee-44 every day for 5 months. Please add a new mod slot for the unique mods. (Charged with light and Warmind)

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 09:13 AM PST

    I've literally pulled DIM up on the vendors page every single day, for 5 whole months.

    Every day, praying to see Powerful Friends mod in his stock. So I can finally get my free 20+ to mobility and max out some other stats on my build.

    But it is seriously frustrating to check daily and then see the same mods repeating, like sniper targeting. Or even just seeing mods that I can't imagine anyone needing like, bow reserves.

    My point is, I think Bungie should either add a new mod stock option for banshee-44 where it's exclusively the unique mods, or they should add these Charged with light and Warmind mods to the loot pool for turning in tokens, just like all the other armour 2.0 mods.

    It's honestly a nightmare, I've wanted this mod for more than a year and I missed the one day last year where he was selling it because... well because I have a life and sometimes play a different game!

    This might seem like a bit of a moan, so I'd like to add that I love playing destiny 2, and in part that is why this is so frustrating to me. I've bought every DLC and season pass the game has ever dropped, obviously from my lack of mods I didn't play all of them. But I cycle in and out of Destiny 2 as my primary game focus. So when I am really into it, I hate being put off by FOMO loot that Is totally out of my control to acquire or not.

    Hey bungie, probably should have just sunset what we used for 3 years and stated over again with no expiration.

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 04:47 PM PST

    Bit like taken king. Imagine that. You could have reset the loot pool like you wanted and not killed everyone's motivation to grind for anything going forward.

    My 7 Year Old Watched me Playing Hunter with Stasis Yesterday...

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 07:57 AM PST

    My wife has her watching older shows and right now she LOVES Sailor Moon.

    So I'm in a raid doing an all stasis run and I throw a Shuriken. My daughter yells "Moon Tiara Action!" At first I'm like WHAT!?

    Now it's all I say in my head when I throw a shuriken. I'm old. Google just that: moon tiara action for an example. It's just too good to ignore!

    Edit: thanks for all the rewards and positive feedback! I showed her the post and she completely loves all the attention!

    A lot of d2 exotics are so bad borderline useless

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 04:57 PM PST

    This is striking me we have sunsetting which could have made exotics relevant but i can think of many exotics that are just bad plain and simple. Ruinous effigy(sorry if i butcher the name) is USELESS after it's unecessary nerf, traces apart from divinity while fun irrelevent, prospector, 2 tailed fox, death bringer, leviathan's breath,hardlight,skyburner's,polaris. What the last time you seen a person using borealis, darci or merciless? Merciless doesnt even function. Most of the y1 exotics have been completely outshined by the new exotics and its sad cause i want to use the deathbringer,i want to use leviathan's breath, i want to use thundelord or queen breaker in endgame content, but it hinders my ability to actually have an impact. Its sad to see unique weapons like deathbringer never see the light of day

    Don't nerf middle tree Stormcallers, just because of some outliers.

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 09:09 AM PST

    EDIT: It's not the fact that it kills you through walls, as it is (most likely) not intentional, a bug. It's the fact that this subclass is getting a lot of limelight, because of how it's been used in Trials.

    People make it seem like middle tree Stormcallers are too OP in Trials, but they are really not. I just saw SayWallahBruh's new video, and it just seems that only now, people are starting to notice the super and gets called out for being OP, which is not the case.

    What they get in super energy is not translated to movement, they are basically nearly stationary, so killing them from behind is easy. It's not like the subclass has great neutral game with or without Geomags.

    What I want you guys to take from here is please don't call nerfs on something that is literally balanced, just because you get outplayed.

    A 120 rpm energy HC would be a great reward for Crimson Doubles this year

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 02:37 PM PST

    I would grind endlessly for a random rolled 120 rpm energy hand cannon comparable to The Steady Hand. Since all available 120 energy HC have been sunset, I think this would be a welcomed reward.

    Hear me out. Dawning 2021 Eva's Great Bake Off

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 12:15 PM PST

    Picture gambit but instead of a bank it's a giant oven. You go around the arena killing different types of enemies in different ways to get ingredients to bake.

    We need an actual Vex strike again

    Posted: 12 Jan 2021 11:58 PM PST

    Title.

    The Glassway strike on Europa is 90% Fallen with a Vex boss. The Inverted Spire is 90% Cabal with a Vex boss. The Warden of Nothing strike is half Vex and half Cabal with a Fallen boss.

    Where did all the Vex strikes go? Oh that's right—down the drain with the rest of the sunset gear and destinations. And it's not like there were many exclusively Vex strikes to begin with; at most we had the Pyramidion strike on Io, and the Garden World strike on Mercury. That was it. And even then, there were chances you wouldn't face Vex on some runs of those strikes until the boss room.

    I'm getting really bitter about this because one of the weekly Vanguard bounties is for Vex kills, when the Nightfall is for—wait for it—Hive. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Bungie promise to match the Vanguard weekly bounties with the Nightfall enemies?

    Edit: Wow! I didn't expect all the upvotes! Glad to know I'm not alone. And to address some of the comments:

    (1) I don't like to jump into a strike just to go through a Lost Sector for kills, because that isn't fair to the players that are actually doing the strike and need help (that and if they die I'll just get teleported to their location anyway), and

    (2) Many of y'all are in support of a bounty overhaul away from specific enemy kills, and I am too

    I would rather have harder strikes with more rewards than shorter strikes with trash rewards

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 10:11 PM PST

    Before somebody says "but oRDEAL?" I mean overall in general it would be nice to have general playlist strikes not be 2 iq soloable. Also champions aren't really that fun if I want to experiment with unique loadouts in difficult content (ie I want to try [x] primary exotic but the champion mods don't work on that exotic so by doing that I'm basically throwing)

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 02:22 PM PST

    I've haven't tested this too much but all of the doors in DSC and the one at the end of the secret tunnel in the EDZ let the witherhoard grenades through and show which can be glitched through.

    Harbinger and Cursebreaker titles unobtainable

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 02:05 PM PST

    To get the title Harbinger you need a lot of things and one of them is every Altars of Sorrow weapon drop. Today was the weekly reset and for the third week in a row the AoS boss hasn't changed. Also some of the weapon parts like fangs of Shun'gath or Ehrath'Ur's horned wreath are unobtainable since the enemies just don't spawn no matter what you do.

    For the Cursebreaker title you need a to collect all 16 ahamkara bones in the Dreaming City, but no matter what you do, they don't spawn. I don't know if Bungie intentionally removed them from the game or if it's just a bug, but if they don't fix it, I just wasted 3 hours getting everything for the title, just to discover that Bungie doesn't care about old content.

    I'm gonna repeat it so it actually sinks in: if you're not happy about the current state of crucible, stasis, sunsetting and content in the game, DO NOT buy the next season

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 07:26 PM PST

    It's the only way Bungie will change things and start actually working, because teither the 600+ exployees they have in the company litearlly do not do absolutely nothing or they have a skeleton crew of 25 people working on this game nd the rest are doing nothing, which is the same.

    I know there's like 20 threads saying the same, but this sub is full of.... special people who will still buy the next season. They're gonna start teasing stuff in the next twab, because tomorrow's twab is just gonna be like this guy said:

    Hot Take: Perk spec mods should get removed and the perks buffed to the level with the mod equipped.

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 12:56 AM PST

    It doesnt make any sense having mods for 3 perks in the game. Rampage is good without the mod, but dragonfly and surrounded spec are necessary making weapons with those perks basically weapons without a mod slot.
