    [D2] Trials of Osiris Megathread [2021-04-23]

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 10:02 AM PDT

    Trials of Osiris is LIVE

    This thread is for all general discussion, questions, thoughts, musings, wonderings, etc. for the Trials of Osiris.

    FAQ

    What is Trials of Osiris?

    • Trials of Osiris is the pinnacle PvP activity. Every Weekend, the best players compete in 3v3 Elimination for one goal: Go Flawless.

    • To start, head to Saint-14 in the Tower Hangar and buy one of the possible passages (see below).

    • To reach Flawless and get to the Lighthouse, you need to win 7 matches without losing one.

    • It uses Win Based Matchmaking, which means you'll face teams with a similar amount of wins on their card. Matches will get harder as you win more matches.

    • There is NO fireteam matchmaking. You need to team up yourself!

    • Power Level matters, however bonus power from the artifact is not enabled.

    How Long do the Trials of Osiris last?

    • Event Starts: Every Friday at Daily Reset (1700 UTC).

    • Event Ends: Following Tuesday at Weekly Reset (1700 UTC).

    Where do I go to find Guardians to compete with in the Trials?

    • You can head over to /r/Fireteams, www.The100.io, Xbox LFG system, DestinyLFG.net or DestinyLFG.com, or go to the Bungie.net recruitment forum (also available through the Bungie App).

    What if I have a question about another piece of armor/weapon or general Trials question?

    • Use Control + F (Or Command + F if on a Mac) and search for keywords in your question. Someone may have asked it already. If they haven't ask right below.

    Bungie just increased shader cost from 40 bright dust to 300 bright dust next season. WE should not be punshied for quality of life updates

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 11:12 AM PDT

    This is absolutly ridiculous, a 650% increase on an update meant to help us. This shader update doesnt help us in anyway other than ease of use, no reason for such a giant jump in price.

    SPOILER: New economy for crossplay!

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 09:31 AM PDT

    In the spirit of the new economy being brought into the game, I've obtained the secret mechanics to enable crossplay. I can't wait everyone!

    1. Players must earn Crossstrand by defeating enemies on a given platform each week.

    2. Players must spend Crossstrand on bounties offered by Benedict to earn Crosscord

    3. Covert Crosscord at the computer in the tower into Crossweave

    4. Use Crossweave to invite your friend to your game.

    Players can also purchase Crossweave for $2 per invite*

    Bungie: I want my Silver back for Glows in 2018 and 2019

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 10:18 AM PDT

    From the TWAB:

    all base armor appearances from 2018 and 2019 Solstice of Heroes events will be available for Armor Synthesis. However, due to an issue where 2018 and 2019 glows cannot be socketed alongside armor appearances in the new Guardian Appearance system, the glows will not be supported.

    I'm in a position to be able to spend money on my hobby and support the developers of that hobby. I like having cosmetics.

    I spent silver on all the 2018 glows. That was a disaster as that armor was immediately rendered useless.

    Then in 2019 I spent silver on all the 2019 glows. (Fool me once, right?). Well, I was somewhat surprised that they did it again and the armor was immediately useless again.

    I never came on here or twitter or anywhere and complained about it or demanded a refund. They claimed to be thinking about and working on a system to make it work in the future. Once they mentioned there were no plans for a Destiny 3 and that transmog was on the way I was happy enough with the faith and trust that I have in a large majority of their decisions.

    Today they announced that that money I spent on these glows is 100% useless and gone forever. I get that it would be difficult to fit the design of those (as well as Revelry helmet glows) into this system, but I find it exasperating that that is where the thinking ends. There needs to be more done here.

    Heck, I don't even think I'd mind (and they could keep the stupid money if they don't feel like refunding) if they just added the glows to the base armor sets. Just pick a random glow color per armor piece, or go off subclass popularity per class, or put it up to a community vote or something on an element per class or something. However, if there is actually NO PLAN at all to do anything about the glows, then refunds need to come in.

    At a minimum, players who spent SILVER should be refunded. I could see an argument for players who spent copious amounts of bright dust to also be refunded.

    As someone who has supported Bungie with my time and my resources over all these years I'm disappointed. I expected better, and I want them to do something about it.

    Season Pass holders shouldn't have a Synthweave cap.

    There is ZERO reason for transmog to be so convoluted other than to make us spend $$$

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 10:24 AM PDT

    Seriously it's insane. Add shaders to that. In this game you have to grind and pay just to change to the appearance/color of your armor. Something that is a basic feature in nearly every modern game. So many other games have done transmog but you guys had to go out of your way to make it annoying and costly, the bungie way. Way to screw up the our most requested feature in the last six years.

    It would seem that due to the sheer disparity in Class populations, Guardian Games are very hard to balance. I have a solution for this:

    Its been 6 months and Destiny 2 is still broken on Radeon 5000/6000 cards.

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 05:43 PM PDT

    The low FPS bug has been around for 6 months with no fixes and the last update from Bungie on the issue was Jan 29th. How has this issue gone on for so long now? The issue would be even bigger if people could actually purchase new video cards. I just want to play the DLC and season passes I paid for, right now my season passes are just going to waste. There is over 30 pages of complaints about the issue over at Bungie forums https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/257630620?sort=0&page=0 I would just like an update or something on the issue. For Radeon 5000 series you can use a really old drivers 20.4.2 to help with the issue somewhat. Driver 20.4.2 doesn't work with Radeon 6000 series so there's no work around there. Please Bungie I just want an update!

    I miss foundry weapons

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 06:24 AM PDT

    Hakke might as well not even be in the game anymore, and there's only like 2 Suros weapons and 1 Omolon weapon that you can actually infuse to max power. I'm actually a big fan of Veist scout rifles but there are literally 0 legendary ones that can currently be obtained

    Full bore has way too many penalties for what it is effectively only around a 1.6% increase in range over hammer-forged, and should perhaps be looked at

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 06:01 PM PDT

    If we take as an example an adept Palindrome with ricochets, rangefinder and range mw, full bore is giving +1.6% more range (from 36.11m to 36.69m) vs. hammer-forged, whereas going with hammer gives 9.4% better handling and 13,85% more stability.

    Why would I ever willingly choose full bore over hammer-forged? The difference in benefits is extremely disproportionate; now, I'm all for making the player make their own decisions and sacrifice one stat for another, but +1.6% more range over the other option for such penalties is extremely harsh and should be looked at. And while at it, sights on HCs should also be looked at, too: Sureshot has worse penalties than full bore while only giving +9 range like hammer-forged! Range sights giving so little range for such harsh penalty is why Waking Vigil has been left behind in the first place!

    May we have the solstice ornaments as individual armors rather than a set?

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 06:22 AM PDT

    Bungie, if you don't have the tech or the spaghetti code is just a little too tightly wrapped, that's ok, there is a lot about making games I don't understand and if you can't make flows work with the new system that's fine. However, I worked my ass off for those glows in 2019, and going into shadowkeep I was so happy I could keep using them (lol that definitely worked well). So if you can't give me the glows with the new system could you replace them in collections with 3 sets of solstice armor one with each glow? I'll wait 4 seasons of 10 transmogs each but I want those armors back please.

    If every piece of content from events like Guardian Games will be in the Eververse store, at least bring back the event engrams

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 09:43 AM PDT

    Yeah I understand Bungie needs to make money and this way they make the most, but to please the community a little, add the event engrams back.

    This way more people will actually play the event, since you get an engram every 5 levels -> people are more likely to participate in the bounty grind fest. And you get people to look in the store more often. More Eververse exposure, bigger chance someone will buy something, right?

    Do yourself a favor, and drop what you're doing and go read the class GG items' lore tabs right now

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 01:34 AM PDT

    Each class item has a lore tab related to the guardian games and a new character taking hilarious bets on who will win the competition. Each acting how the community presents each class.

    I recommend reading them in the following order:

    Warlock Bond - For the character establishment and seeing Warlocks awkwardly try to act cool.https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/phoenixs-fire

    Hunter's Cloak - To see an interesting possible minor-story thread and laugh at Hunters being cringe.https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/cobras-hood

    Titan Mark - To end on a hilarious note.https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/lions-pride

    For all the faults this event, I really enjoyed these reads.

    Bungie i’m sorry, but the daily focus rotation was not smart if you are going to tie something to a triumph. Please don’t do this again.

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 03:38 PM PDT

    Basically title. I know gambit will be tomorrow. But if it's only every 5 days, then it will be available like what 2-3 times? What if people can't play on those specific days. Ridiculous in my opinion.

    Bungie, I want to chase fashion too

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 04:03 PM PDT

    I like chasing weapon rolls. It's fun to get a well rolled toy. But I can only get so many different hand cannons with a reload/damage perk and feel satisfied.

    What keeps me coming back is the fashion. And there's not a lot of fashion to chase in the game. Each season, we get one armor set and the ornaments on a paid season pass. And then you place two other ornament sets into Eververse. And most of the event items behind Eververse. And all of the exotic ornaments behind Eververse. I want to chase my fashion. I want to earn it. Paying for a look never feels good, when I pay for every other part of this game. And grinding BD is not chasing fashion. If I see a cool looking player in game, I 100% assume they bought that gear from EV one way or another. This is seriously souring my game experience. Events shouldn't be a chance for you to sell us something, they should be a chance for us to show off our cool new looks we earned by engaging with the event. Nowadays, every event is a bounty simulator slapped on as an excuse to refresh your cash shop twice a season. As this continues, my interest will wane and I'll stop playing and you'll get no money from me for even expansions. It's fatiguing, and you can clearly see the community is fatigued as well. Be better.

    how about a strike modifier called “specialist” where special ammo drops more and does more damage

    I hope bungie releases the stats of the numbers for guardian games like they did last year

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 03:29 AM PDT

    This isn't even coming from a salty place. I just like seeing the definitive numbers reflecting different class engagement. It feels weird that Titans went from stomping everyone out last year to hunters now winning 3 days in a row. I wonder if Titan engagement is lower this year or hunter engagement is just that much higher.

    Daily medal info would be nice, because right now Warlocks and Titans probably feel demoralised.

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 07:38 PM PDT

    Are our efforts achieving anything? Is our time worth it? Or did half our class give up already and it's just a losing cause at this stage? Is the 10% achieving anything for us or is is simply offsetting the people we're losing every day?

    We have no idea because all we have is this inaccurate flag lineup.

    It would be great to see:

    1) Medal Total from each day per subclass 2) Average Medals per active player 3) Our individual contribution

    It would be nice just to get some ieda of whether our time and grind is achieving anything or whether we are going to get done in by having literally 30% of the active numbers that hunters do.

    Playlist specific weapon drops should be boosted when that activity is the focused activity for Guardian Games.

    Posted: 23 Apr 2021 06:12 AM PDT

    We got an event that needs some more meaningful rewards to chase instead of just a single catalyst/exotic.

    We got an event that focuses on a different core activity each day.

    We got core activities with unique weapons drops that are highly sought after, but low drop chances.

    Seems like a pretty simple recipe if we just put all the parts together.
