    Sorry, but relabeling bounties as "medals" and having players go into core playlist activities that they've already been doing all season (and far longer) doesn't count as an "event."

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 01:27 PM PDT

    SRL was an event.

    The European Aerial Zone was an event.

    Having players go into the same playlist strikes, crucible and gambit does not warrant being called an event nor does it excite players.

    Most folks I know already have the gun + the catalyst and are done with engaging with GG and it's barely been a day.

    It's just a glorified Eververse refresh.

    Edit: Lots of Bungie apologists in the comment section.

    Telling people that "if they don't like it then they don't have to play it" is not a valid defense against the criticism of the event.

    In terms of suggestions for something better:

    I've seen plenty of people suggest bringing the class specific swords back and we upgrade them through the event. That's a good idea.

    I think SRL is the perfect "olympic" like activity that would work with GG.

    I've also seen a suggestion for a 2v2v2 class specific crucible mode or some type of 2v2v2 gambit mode.

    Any of these I think would be welcome.

    Anyone remember when this sub got the large, open nine maps removed even before vaulting?

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 06:16 PM PDT

    I do. We had big, open maps, and this sub complained until they were removed from playlists. And now you're all saying it's bungies fault we only have small maps. Maybe if you didn't make it blatantly clear you didn't like big maps like we had before, they wouldn't only give us small ones

    Ghosts out in Social Hubs

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 09:16 AM PDT

    Similar to allowing your helmet off in "Non-Combat Zones", I think having your ghost out beside you should be optional as well.

    Bungie please add what shields are attached to match game activities.

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 08:11 PM PDT

    I know it has been asked before, but I really hate using a spreadsheet to track what weapons I need for any match game activity (nightfall, lost sector, etc..)

    IMO when you hover over the match game icon it should just show a text saying "void & solar" for example...really whatever makes it easy for the devs.

    If you're planning on buying silver on Xbox One in the next 21 days, make sure to claim the punch card on Microsoft rewards, for 2500 free points.

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 07:29 AM PDT

    If you are on Xbox, go to the Microsoft rewards app on the console, scroll down until you see destiny 2, and click it. Click the top punch card, load the game, and buy at least 1000 silver. Within an hour, you'll receive 2500 free points, which can count towards some free account credit.

    Everybody loves free stuff. Have a nice day :)

    Edit: this is also retroactive. If you have bought at least 1000 silver while the punch card has existed (a couple days), it will automatically be completed and you just have to do the other requirements.

    Edit 2: had a few people from the US saying it's not available to them. It could take a couple days, or might not turn up at all depending on where you live.

    PLEASE BUNGIE, UNLOCK REVELRY ANTLER ORNAMENTS!!!!!!!

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 09:44 PM PDT

    I made this same post last year around this time...Basically an event in Destiny 2 during 2019 introduced a helmet which could hold an ornament that put dope antlers on ur head. The antlers are set to be active during this Revelry event, HOWEVER this event got replaced by guardian games so as it stands it's not possible to wear them again which just sucks cause I loved them, plus I did a lot of grinding just for a chance to get them. Just posting this again so they aren't forgotten.

    ***POST FROM LAST YEAR***
    Many of you may not remember revelry 2019, many of us don't want to...but the one thing I was hoping for, was the ability to use the antler ornament again....

    The guardian games pretty much takes the spot of the revelry event in 2019. Even in collections you can see the old revelry triumphs under the guardian games tab. So what I'm seeing is, we aren't getting revelry back cause it's been replaced, I JUST WANT MY ANTLERS BACK, THEY TOOK SO LONG TO GET TO NEVER BE ABLE TO USE AGAIN AND I LOVE THEM. NO REVELRY EQUAL NO ANTLERS.

    I don't see another opportunity for this, and I really don't want them to be forgotten...waited a whole year just to see if we could use them again, but nope, still locked... if at the least, would like some consolation that they'll come back at some point...

    Arc Damage does not "Pop" your Heir Apparent Shield in (PvE).

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 08:23 AM PDT

    Now that Heir has gotten a resurgence in popularity, I've seen a few people falsely stating that Arc Damage does extra Damage & Explodes the Shield in PvP and PvE for 130 Damage.

    This is not the case.

    In PvP,

    • Non-Arc Weapons deal less Damage. Significantly less with the Catalyst.

    • Arc Damage is heavily increased & if it gets the final shot, "Explodes" your Shield for 130 Damage.

    In PvE,

    • It's an Overshield just like every other normal Overshield.

    • Arc Damage does not deal increased Damage.

    • If Arc Damage gets the final shot on your Shield, there is not an Explosion, & you do not take a hit of Damage afterward like in PvP.

    • You can literally even stand in Vex Milk without worrying.

    Seriously, Vex Milk is literally affected by the Arc Resistance Mod & still does not pop the Heir Shield.

    • Here is a random Reddit Thread from when it released also stating the same information.

    • Horrible Video to link since it falsely says Arc/PvE is affected, but every "Top Comment" is pointing out the video is wrong, & that Arc Damage does not affect it in PvE.

    If I get time myself, I'll go into PvE to show comparisons between same Power Level'd Enemies hitting me for different Damage types.

    The TLDR,

    Inside of PvE you tank all Damage Types the exact same.

    Inside of PvP Arc Damage is nasty.

    Edit2: Cleaned up the link formatting.

    Edit3: Fixed post to abide by Subreddit rules.

    Bungie, please add a Hunter exotic that converts Arcstrider into a single shot spear throw ����

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 01:16 AM PDT

    Thnx.

    Edit: Thank you for the awards friends!

    To those who have also made alternative suggestions, I like all your ideas! The most common theme seems to be a restructure of the middle tree Arcstrider which i think is a great idea.

    In regards to the Arc spear/Valkarie, the idea i had in mind was a single high damaging shot where on impact the AoE would cast a lightening strike, similar to Cloudstrike with a medium ripple along the ground.

    This could also lead into a Lore entry with the mysterious stranger mentioned in the Cloudstrike Lore.

    Let me know your thoughts and ideas! 💡

    P.S Reeeeally hoping Bungie see this

    Not having a way to quickly swap between loadouts is taking a toll on (mostly) my motivation to try hard content

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 03:08 PM PDT

    Tl;Dr: loadouts? 👉👈

    I recently started trying some GMs / Trials / hard gamer stuff and got back into raiding as I've found more friends to play with, but the lack of a way to quickly switch between loadouts is becoming "the" big issue in the game for me.

    It's a good thing in a way, it means the rest is in a pretty darn good place (please don't comment on pvp/stasis down here fellas lol), but with the game in a good place, I'm thinking maybe we can start looking at some systems updates.

    I play all 3 classes because I like the differences in gameplay, but that means my good armor rolls are limited: I don't have enough armor pieces that I could just use each for only one loadout.

    So now:

    • When I swap around mods in order to be ready for a hard activity, I think about how I'm destroying a (potentially fun / potentially good for another activity) build I had made and I'll have to remake it after said activity
    • I barely ever try to experiment with my builds, because making a "fun" build just means I'll have to go through making my "optimal" build again later
    • I lost almost any interest in finding specific armor piece rolls, because I have no way to see my full builds and I'm not inclined to make a builds spreadsheet (and I love spreadsheets, so that should say something). So I'm not inclined to min/max even my "strong" builds.

    I do use DIM, but since mods can't be swapped there, it doesn't really help me. If having a fully-fledged functionality in-game isn't an option (I get that it would take some work) then PLEASE let us do it via the Bungie companion or 3rd party apps.

    If the issue with that is the cost in materials when swapping mods, considering how little those costs provide for the game when weighed against the massive UX gains of a quick swap system, I really don't see any reason to keep the cost on mods.

    Also... IMAGINE IF WE COULD EVEN USE A DIFFERENT SHADER/ORNAMENT ON THE SAME PIECE DEPENDING ON THE LOADOUT HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE

    plz

    Anybody miss sparrow racing, cause I do

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 03:37 PM PDT

    With GG out in full swing now with Heir and recycled strikes. I couldn't help but feel nostalgia for sparrow racing. I remember completing quests to earn cool sparrows and that sick ass soundtrack that would play on certain maps. Plus the cosmetics were pretty cool as well. I also think it would be a nice way to give Holiday some use as well seeing as to how she's pretty much useless when you visit her the tower.

    Last years GG class item also changes from gold to silver or bronze and vice versa

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 10:31 AM PDT

    Kinda sucks tbh, imagine winning an olympic gold medal irl and the next olympic games it turns bronze for no reason. I hoped i could transmog the gold class item from last year. But now I don't know if that would even work with how these are coded. I hope this is not intentional but just an oversight. In short: Gimme my gold buttflap back pls ;)

    With transmog coming up, I just wanted everyone to not forget the 2019 solstice armor glows

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 12:25 PM PDT

    These armor sets represent a significant time commitment for a large chunk of the playerbase. And yet they have been neglected almost since their release. I maxed out all my solstice armor and (foolishly) did the masterwork requirements, which were almost immediately useless. When armor 2.0 came out, we all got one version of our solstice armor, with low stats, and no option to reroll. I still used my armor for all of shadowkeep, despite it basically being a handicap, most likely in a desperate ploy to prove to myself that all my effort hadn't been worthless. Then, eventually, it fell victim to sunsetting, and I wasn't even able to wear it in any new activities. Now, with armor transmog coming out, I finally have a chance to use it again. So I beg you bungie, please make sure that you include the solstice glows in transmog. Even if it means we can't have a non glowing version for some reason, the glows on that armor were the main selling point, and it would only add insult to injury to not include them on the transmog system.

    TLDR: 2019 Solstice armor needs to have the glows applied in transmog, or else it would be a waste of one of the best designed armor sets in d2

    Can we please get more symmetrical Titan marks?

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 02:41 PM PDT

    Title.

    I think a lot of the Titan marks would look a lot better if they were symmetrical. For example, the virtuous mark ornament or the prophecy dungeon Titan mark. My OCD is driving me insane with most Titan marks only covering one side.

    For everyone trying out the ICEFALL MANTLE and HEIR APPARENT tank builds, you can get a 'shielded x2' buff on Icefall with a little trick.

    Posted: 21 Apr 2021 04:32 AM PDT

    Not sure how well known this is, but there is a way to get a 'shielded x2' buff on Icefall Mantle that further increases your tankiness. Usually over shields in Destiny do not stack in the same way other perks (such as rampage) do in the UI. But under very niche circumstances you can get a shielded x2 buff that double stacks the strength of your overshield.

    Luckily its quite easy and quick to do. You simply have to do a finisher with 'bulwark finisher' equipped, then pop your Icefall. Bulwark is 'shielded x1' and then Icefall applies on top for 'shielded x 2'. They seem to have independent timers, and with Icefall refreshing its timer constantly, you will eventually go back down to 'shielded x1'. But for the time you are at x2 stacks (roughly 20 seconds) you are REALLY tanky.

    Best thing about this combo is that its subclass neutral, so you can turn any subclass into a tank. However, I would suggest using stasis as 'whisper of chains' also adds damage resistance passively. This would be great for Heir Apparent with its improved shield (which in itself stacks with Icefall/Bulwark) or you can also stack it with the 'passive guard' perk from the artefact.

    Happy tanking guardians!
