    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 06:10 AM PDT

    Fellow Warlocks, it's time to rise with the flames and show the Hunters and Titans what a comeback is. We may have gotten last place last year, but if we band together, we can take home the gold this year. Watch this hand crafted video for inspiration to choose Warlock this year!

    I miss when Bright Engrams actually decrypted into good rewards

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 03:58 PM PDT

    Anyone else notice that the rewards are no longer good anymore and you need to either spend bright dust or glimmer to get anything good? It's like what's the point of them anymore?

    Lumina should be able to remove the effects of stasis from teammates.

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 08:36 AM PDT

    Basically title. I haven't seen anyone post this before, but lumina should be able to remove stacks of slowed or unfreeze teammates when you shoot them with noble rounds. It makes sense lore wise because it is supposed to be a gun of pure light and it would be very good mechanically to have a direct stasis counter.

    THE FREEBORN // Intertwined — Otzot Fanart

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 08:57 AM PDT

    I've always been thrilled by the psion race. In my opinion, they are the creepiest and on the same side the most sci-fi-looking creatures in the Destiny universe. And it's a great pleasure to see how they become more and more independent in the game's narrative. So I decided to make an homage to one of the most powerful psion, in some cinematic styled way.

    Inspired by recent conflicts I thought of an alliance between Otzot and the Darkness. And since Otzot is freeborn, I wanted to show her in non-technological non-Cabal armor. It is ancient and ritual, with small psion glyphs. And since race's main benefit is psionic abilities I thought that their letterings are neuronic-like symbols, which create impulses in brains while they 'read' them. One symbol could contain a big message, and a combination of these glyphs could change the meanings of the text completely.

    In the scene itself, you can see that Otzot is using her Void abilities to lift a splinter of darkness, and the splinter answers empowering her force so everything in the pyramid interior is starting to collapse, part of walls and floor levitating around in chaos but some small particles beginning to array around the splinter in a perfect circle shape.

    Watch here: https://i.imgur.com/LBcvOff.png

    Hope you will like it!

    If I say "kwtd" in my lfg and you absolutely do not "kwtd" but join anyways, please be honest and ask for help.

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 06:48 AM PDT

    Did a Prophecy run last night and needed one, just threw it up on lfg and a random joined. In the first two encounters we really didn't have a problem, but once we got to the cube room he clearly did not know what he was doing and wasn't responding to us trying to teach him. Once we got to the Kell, he spent the entire time trying to snipe from the first platform, dying from the 10x debuff about five times per damage phase.

    I have never kicked someone from a fireteam, but boy was I close. If you don't know what to do, please say something. I'm much more willing to help someone who's lost than to carry someone who deliberately is refusing to learn.

    EDIT: Since this has gotten a bit more exposure than I thought it would, I wanted to just clear up a few things. There is NOTHING wrong with joining an LFG while having a partial knowledge of the activity. For instance, if you've run prophecy once but don't know all the mechanics, I personally am more than happy to help you get through it. I was a solo player up into last season and I mainly just play with my girlfriend. If not for a handful of extremely helpful randoms on LFG, we'd have never learned how to clear all the dungeons or DSC. If you're new to LFG and don't know how to start out, the best thing I can recommend is to make a post just saying "first time, could use help". Lack of communication is the biggest gripe I had while making this post and I did not mean to deter any new players or seasoned soloers from trying to join up on LFGs. Just be communicative, honest, and ready to learn :)

    Bungie, can we please have our characters hold our equipped energy weapon on the character screen?

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 08:20 AM PDT

    I have a really nice Bottom Dollar I want to look at when I'm in my character menu. I know it's a bit silly but I think being able to choose which of our weapons we hold in the character sheet screen would be neato.

    Simple Strike Composition Spreadsheet (shield types/champions)

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 09:41 AM PDT

    A friend and I compiled and updated a bunch of information we found scattered around to put together what we think is a pretty accurate depiction of the current strikes: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vJeWqA81Pq6ziKcw5XBdufkaGK6bNJ41Ce1yXPYW5b4/edit?usp=sharing

    Shield types are in order of (at least perceived) frequency and the GMs for the current season are at the top/emphasized. Enemy types or shields that can be bypassed without sacrificing platinum rewards are in parentheses.

    Our clan has found it useful so I figured it would be worth sharing here :) Feel free to send me any suggestions/edits!

    One of the cool things about Vault Of Glass was how it was just... there, in the world space, and sometimes in patrol you'd see people trying to open it and could help. Can we get that again somehow?

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 09:45 PM PDT

    So, Vault Of Glass. One of the cool things about it that sometimes gets mentioned but sometimes does not was how the Vault Of Glass was just sort of THERE, on Venus, in the patrol space. You would go about you normal patrol stuff for the first time on Venus and see this huge, massive door that seems to have no way to open it. If you knew nothing about VoG, you might spend a bit of time looking for a way to open it, them move on.

    And sometimes, you would be going about your day on Venus, slightly more advanced then you were back then. You KNOW what the Vault Of Glass is now, but you don't particularly want to raid. Then you head there on some other errand... and you see 6 people trying to do the puzzle to get in. "Oh my god they are trying to get in to the Vault" and you think to yourself "Is there nothing stopping me from coming in to help? Can I get a reward from it? Can I go INSIDE because it's open?"

    So you equip your best weapons and jump into the fray. You take the role of foe damager since you can't interact with the positions. You make the lives of everyone else a bit easier by taking down some tough ass minotuars. And they manage to open the door and go inside.

    You don't get rewarded sadly. No loot from opening the door. You don't get to go inside either and explore. It only opens for the 6 it seems. But hey, sometimes, helping others is it's own reward. You have a story to tell of how you helped a raid team do their thing on your own terms. That's enough. You hop back on your Sparrow and go do your thing.

    Basicaly, what I'm worried about is when Vault Of Glass returns, Bungie will entirely miss this one aspect of how cool Vault Of Glass was. There will be no big door on an area of Nessus that people go to as they pass their daily rounds. No chance to go and help a raid team get into the Vault then be on your merry way. This cool oppotunity in Destiny's open world, unlike any other, will be gone, consigned to the corridors of time. I don't like that idea.

    TLDR: If we can recapture the feeling the original Vault Of Glass opening area had on it's return, that would be neat.

    Instead of ghost projections, which do nothing, we should have ghost expressions

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 03:07 PM PDT

    Wouldn't it be SO CUTE to have like a little one-eyed happy face? Or even just a ^ in there? Or like an angry face but cute??? AAA IT WOULD BE AMAZING AND it would give our ghosts some personality

    Leviathan’s breath (w catalyst) highest total damage output? It melts in the Proving Grounds GM

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 09:36 AM PDT

    Leviathans slaps. It can stun 2 unstoppables at once and does solid burst damage. It melts barrier champs from deep. And with 15 arrows in the quiver I believe it does more total damage than a Code Duello with frenzy/field prep.

    The ammo economy is awesome too because bow finder and bow scavenger are dirt cheap. Its intrinsic unstoppable shot means you don't need to run a pulse/hand cannon which opens the door for you to run two special weapons to max damage output. (Sniper and blinding grenade launcher is my favorite) If you run duel special weapons it will not drop primary ammo, so it rains purple and green bricks. Just be sure to run special ammo finisher or extra reserves.

    On the downside, it defintely handles like a broke down Chevy with no power steering. The draw time is also abysmal which drops the DPS, but on GMs like Proving Grounds you have plenty of time to DPS the boss. With full ammo you can blast like 8-10 arrows into the boss and still have plenty of ammo for the unstoppable champs. Definitely worth trying out!

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 03:34 AM PDT

    It's seriously reaching the point where I'm killing a knight just for him to full heal and teleport behind like an anime character and just one shot me. It's seriously draining my desire to play the game if any time I'm on using hawk moon I have to account for teleporting terry.

    Whoever designed the Holdfast set should design more titan sets

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 02:21 PM PDT

    It was one of the few D2 sets I've seen that builds on D1's titan design without being a reskin. The blockiness reminds me of the Murvaux set and the asymmetrical shoulders remind me of Zavala's Jovian Guard. The detailed rubber undersuit, the jetpack in the back, the visorless helmet, the reasonably sized right shoulder, and the radio antennae and other metal attachments on the ornament set all remind me of D1 design. The various bolts and rivets its covered in suggest things being fastened into place or added onto the suit. It looks like like something someone would actually put on to go fight some aliens and overall has a depth and lived-in feel I don't see in a lot of other titan sets. The pieces work pretty well with the D1 armor still left in the game too.

    Something I've noticed is that there's a lot of variation in the design of season pass and destination sets which makes sense because storywise they come from different places and are made by different people (Season 8 was the Vex, Season 12 was Spider, Season 13 was Caiatl, etc). For future Vanguard sets, however, or just any set that would have been manufactured in the City lorewise, I think this style of design would be appropriate. I've noticed that D2 artists tend to use certain signature styles throughout their work so whoever designed this could give us something different that still obeyed the same design principles

    Future Ritual weapons should get Adept counterparts with harder/longer quests

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 06:24 AM PDT

    You know how it goes, week 1 of new season and someone is already running around with Adored or Salvager's Salvo. Ornaments are nice addition that make you visit different playlists but for people who want some extra grind it would be cool to get Adept ritual weapons, of course Adept quests would be more grindy / difficult.

    Let me know what you think!

    Gambit motes are still getting stuck inside map geometry at least once per game and enemies in most locations still teleport frequently.

    Posted: 06 Apr 2021 10:15 AM PDT

    I thought there was supposed to be a fix for this but apparently it didn't do much, if anything. I've noticed that the problems are worse in gambit than other locations, but still can happen anywhere.
