Please don’t make random rolls a common thing on exotics. Posted: 16 Feb 2021 10:34 AM PST The new exotic is out, a lever action scout rifle that has random rolls. This was only supposed to be for hawkmoon due to the randomness of the gun itself. Please don't make this a common thing. Edit: DMG just made a tweet saying we won't see this for another few seasons. submitted by /u/RedraceRocket [link] [comments]

Can we acknowledge how incredible the secret Glykkon Mission is? Posted: 16 Feb 2021 12:03 PM PST I get that some people aren't a fan of random rolls on this exotic (right now there is two different posts complaining on the front page about it)... But can we at least acknowledge and show some love to Bungie for how absolutely fantastic the mission is? It's one of the best to date and it's reasons like this that we love the game! These are the moments and missions that make us fall in love with Destiny. I hope that this season is what we can come to expect from seasonal content from Bungie, even if every season doesn't have a dungeon style mission, something akin to it would be incredible. submitted by /u/GunslingerLyfe [link] [comments]

New mission is peak Destiny. Thank you to every single person at Bungie for this. Posted: 16 Feb 2021 07:30 PM PST One of the best time I've had in the game in 7 years. And no, I'm not being hyperbolic. Truly an amazing mission. The vibes, the puzzles, the environments. Great job. I strongly suggest people to go in solo and blind submitted by /u/Fashion_Nito [link] [comments]

[SPOILER] More horror-like missions, please. Posted: 16 Feb 2021 02:54 PM PST Presage was absolutely fantastic and it reaffirms my belief that Bungie is going in the right direction. Man, from the Dead Space vibes that mission gave off, I wouldn't mind more of it, the sound design was excellent, the unknown element of it all, please Bungie, more of this! submitted by /u/Sons-of-N7 [link] [comments]

It is not fun trying to use an entire magazine of SMG ammo to stun an overload champion Posted: 16 Feb 2021 05:00 AM PST When using overload SMG I find that it takes me almost an entire magazine to stun overload captains, which is compounded in frustration by the fact that they literally never stop teleporting. It would be much more enjoyable if overload SMG's worked similar to bows, or unstoppable hand cannons, wherein they would stun in the initial shot, or initial few shots of the magazine. Edit: to everyone saying "just use (insert weapon) 4head", the point of my post is that SMGs should be more viable stun weapons. If I am expected to alter my loadout already to accomodate champions I should not have to worry about the champion mods not working or working so much worse that the only viable option is something else entirely. submitted by /u/5269636b417374 [link] [comments]

So if The Messenger can roll with Desperado, can you please allow Shadow Price to roll with Onslaught? Posted: 16 Feb 2021 09:00 AM PST So in case you don't remember, Onslaught was on the Breakneck. It increased the RPM depending on how many stacks of Rampage you had. It was really good when it first came out but then got nerfed for no good reason. I really like the idea of bringing back pinnacle weapon perks on new weapons. Since the Messenger can roll with Desperado, can you make Shadow Price roll with Onslaught? Desperado was reworked so that it doesn't need Outlaw anymore, so maybe you could rework Onslaught so that it doesn't need Rampage. You can only get Messenger in Trials, and you can only get Shadow Price in Nightfalls. I think this would be a perfect opportunity to spice up the loot pool :) P.S - Please remove the Onslaught nerf, it was really unnecessary. Edit: I would love to see every pinnacle perk other than Reversal of Fortune and Micro-Missile to be added back into the loot pool. For obvious reasons. submitted by /u/Freezing_FX [link] [comments]

Presage. Was. Brilliant Posted: 16 Feb 2021 01:26 PM PST Congratulations Bungie, you mad lads I have nothing left to say submitted by /u/Breeny04 [link] [comments]

Battlegrounds should get a Pinnacle reward for finishing 9 Posted: 16 Feb 2021 06:30 AM PST So unless I am grinding rolls, Battlegrounds are worthless now that I am Hard cap (1300) because I will want to farm Pinnacle rewards now. I think that you should get a pinnacle engram for doing NINE battlegrounds! EDIT: I hope that Bungie has something up their sleeve for these. submitted by /u/jgbojangles [link] [comments]

It’s getting really annoying to go between the tower and H.E.L.M to decrypt both prime and umbral engrams Posted: 16 Feb 2021 11:55 AM PST Why is the helm not a fast travel point? I don't care if they add another cryptarch to helm, but I'm sick of flying to both location after couple of strikes, gambit etc submitted by /u/Oravital1 [link] [comments]

Weekly Challenges are retroactive! Posted: 16 Feb 2021 09:01 AM PST As soon as Reset hit, I auto-completed 2 of this weeks challenges. Presumably because I did lots of stuff last week... This is fucking huge! submitted by /u/LondonDude123 [link] [comments]

New Exotic Quest Posted: 16 Feb 2021 09:46 AM PST No Spoilers, do the arms dealer strike or nightfall to start it EDIT: You don't have to finish the nightfall, at the very beginning there's a new door open, go through the door, kill the enemies, and there is something you scan at the end. This starts the quest. After that go talk to Zavala, and a new mission will open up on the Tangled Shore. submitted by /u/Supreme_Math_Debater [link] [comments]

Don’t look up guides for the new Exotic Quest, it’s best enjoyed knowing as little as possible! Posted: 16 Feb 2021 02:05 PM PST The new Exotic is here! As someone who has finished it, I want to make a recommendation to all you fine folks: get the starter item but after that, don't look up guides, impressions, or spoilers. Trust me on this! Set aside an hour or more. Go in solo if you want to savour the quest narration and some interesting puzzles. Try to make sure you're at least 1280 and bring some solid DPS dealers if you have any. If you get stuck, make sure you really have a good look around. That's all the advice I have! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Lastly: shoutouts to the folks at Bungie who made the new Exotic Quest. In my years of playing D1 and D2, this is a top ten, if not top five of all time. Exotic Quests in general have been really, really memorable in D2. Keep up the great work. submitted by /u/soultron__ [link] [comments]

Bungie, make the Guitar Solo emote play the Sepiks Redux theme Posted: 16 Feb 2021 12:19 PM PST Title. This would make it a perfected emote (get it?). submitted by /u/Tagap1234 [link] [comments]

DMG Confirms Random Rolled Exotics NOT Going to be The Norm! Posted: 16 Feb 2021 12:51 PM PST A lot of people have expressed their concern over this, and rightfully so. I agree that Exotics should not have random rolls, except for VERY sparingly. So good to see that Hawkmoon and now Dead Man's Tale are not going to be the new norm. https://twitter.com/A_dmg04/status/1361756661354881029?s=19 submitted by /u/Dawg605 [link] [comments]

Best of both worlds: The original Sepiks Prime music seems to be used in playlist strikes while Sepiks Redux is used in the Nightfall Posted: 16 Feb 2021 10:42 AM PST Just got the Devils' Lair strike in the playlist strikes just now and when I got to Sepiks, the original music started playing as opposed to the Sepiks Redux remix when it was a Nightfall. Nice best of both worlds for people who prefer one track over the other. I should also note that the original fly-in dialogue from Zavala was actually present too as it was completely absent from the Nightfall. submitted by /u/JesusInMalibu [link] [comments]

To the people who leave comp matches because they died once, go play control. Posted: 16 Feb 2021 12:06 AM PST If you're going to be a baby and just leave the game after dying once or losing a round, don't even queue up. You're better off not being in the playlist. People don't want to be stuck down a teammate in a gamemode that won't fill up that slot. I'd rather have a teammate that tried to play and just died in the match versus someone leaving. Edit: I've come to realize that my initial comments are a little whiny, and it's more so just me venting about some stuff that's irked me during recent play sessions. However, I do think that players leaving a competitive playlist does have some underlying issues that could be addressed. Things like server and connection stability are major factors, and some people may not know you can join back into comp games after a error code/disconnect. There are also no major consequences for leaving a comp match. You lose glory and get suspended from playing comp, that's it. The consequences imposed by the game aren't good enough. What I'm trying to say is that there are many issues surrounding comp and player engagement with the mode. Getting to 5500 is nothing more than just acquiring some numbers and gaining loot to get your power up. Incentives and the mode need a facelift or full surgery, or else it might as well go into the DCV as well (please don't do that though Bungie). Edit 2: Hey all, thank you for the interactions and discourse here. Like I said in my other edit, the original post was made due to some pent up emotion and a rough play session. However, I am very thankful for those providing constructive input from both sides of the debate. From "tough out the match" to "it's a loss anyways, I'll leave," many of us are of differing mindsets, and proper debate and conversations will help to create ideas and suggestions that could benefit both in the future. Keep debating away, and maybe one day PvP could improve even more. submitted by /u/Mattchoo13 [link] [comments]

Can we get a preview back Posted: 16 Feb 2021 02:49 AM PST To preview engrams? I wanna know what I can get out of as an example "Worldly Weapons" It just says it contains weapons out of several destination and activities. Alone the wording "worldly weapons" makes it sound it is just the world pool with weapons that can drop in the wild, on the other hand the description makes it seem I can get stuff from certain activities like strike specific weapon, or crucible specific weapons. A preview would clarify that better, since you can see "Oh it contains "The Keening" so this means it contains stuff I could only get from crucible" TLDR non native english speaker wants visual confirmation for focused umbral drop pool etc. submitted by /u/DreamFishLover90 [link] [comments]

Bungie, if Transformative is a way to justify the sun going down on exotics in the future, I feel like it needs to be stated now Posted: 16 Feb 2021 04:21 PM PST When they first came out with sunsetting, they mentioned that exotics aren't going that way right now, but as per Bungie, were still vague on if it was going to happen in the future. With some new exotics, and possibly future exotics, having random rolls, it gives Bungie a justification to put a power cap on it, as they are now kind of in the random category of legendaries. That being the case, if someone at Bungie is planning that for the future, I think the community should hear about it now. People are going to spend a lot of time grinding the rolls they want. Some are going to spend money on ornaments. Remember, they stopped doing the legendary ornaments after sunset was announced. So if they're going to keep selling ornaments for exotics that might possibly be sunset later, it would pretty scummy to not at least state that that weapon or armor might not be relevant down the line. For the record, I hate sunsetting. Edit: as others have stated in other threads, exotics going down would be a hard quit for them. Same here. So if it's really in the plans, the community needs a clear statement. No 'yets', no 'not in the plans right now', no 'we're looking at it'.... it needs a clear YES or NO. submitted by /u/_therealchin [link] [comments]

Crow: "Remind me again what were you doing in the red war?" Posted: 16 Feb 2021 10:38 AM PST Saladin: "..." Crows a straight savage submitted by /u/MrEousTranger [link] [comments]

H.E.L.M - please add a weapon range Posted: 16 Feb 2021 06:42 AM PST As the title says I hope Bungie add a weapon range in the HELM, just like the Tribute Hall from before. The Tribute Hall was great for testing different weapons and test builds. submitted by /u/RogueMind8 [link] [comments]

ALL WARLOCKS: Fenguang ornament for pheonix protocol is on sale for bright dust! Posted: 16 Feb 2021 09:27 AM PST Stop looking like a dumpster fire in raids! submitted by /u/Yoyoloz [link] [comments]

Weekly seasonal challenges can be completed before they appear Posted: 16 Feb 2021 09:38 AM PST Thanks, Bungie...this is an awesome way to handle these challenges. I already have two of this week's challenges marked as complete (collect Cabal gold and smash chests/focus Umbrals using Hammer charges). submitted by /u/nabsltd [link] [comments]

[Spoiler] Setting aside talk on the new scout for a second, its exotic mission is bloody amazing. Posted: 16 Feb 2021 12:24 PM PST There's a ton of discussion around the new scout rifle's transformative property (understandably), but I need to applaud Bungie for "Presage". It had an atmosphere that we have not seen in ages (if at all) in Destiny. It had a Dead Space feel to the entire thing, and truly felt like I was trudging through a husk of a ship. Osiris's unexpected transmissions made me jump on a occasion, and I fully thought something was coming out of the vents. And the puzzles throughout were engaging, and they reminded me of the Metroid Prime days (especially 3, with the GFS Valhalla). I loved every bit of that ~80 minute mission, doing it solo (EDIT: I have to note I did it at power level ~1278. Not crushingly difficult, but not a cake walk either). Fantastic work Bungie, absolutely fantastic. ...now I hope the random perks on Dead Man's Tale are unique (ie: no Rangefinder or Hip Fire Grip). submitted by /u/LinkMcCloud117 [link] [comments]

Shout out to Bungie for getting people to try trials again Posted: 15 Feb 2021 09:47 PM PST It honestly takes skill to create an activity where people would rather jump off cliffs for hours on end instead of actually playing the game mode. submitted by /u/5h0ck [link] [comments]

My favorite part about the new mission is that it gives the criminally underused Scorn a chance to shine. Posted: 16 Feb 2021 07:43 PM PST I love the Scorn as an enemy race, I'm really sad they didn't get a real chance to shine outside their location. submitted by /u/trueGator89 [link] [comments]
