    Stop thinking you're gonna one-phase every boss because you saw a youtuber do so.

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 07:29 AM PDT

    Youtubers will only post a video of the boss being one phased. They'll never show you the multiple attempts they had beforehand.

    If they struggle with their team, of course you'll struggle with an LFG group. It literally only takes a few minutes to start up another damage phase, all is not lost.

    Not really a discussion, I just feel sorry for people who rage after not one phasing Atheon.

    What exactly is the point of the 15 sec cool down between using a pure matterglase lens and a rainmaker?

    The moon weapons should never have been sunset in the first place.

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 05:17 PM PDT

    Shadowkeep was literally the expansion directly before Beyond light. We are getting the full arsenal back now, they should have atleast done it with the perdition and armor sets.

    It is pretty sad that Gambit is a mode that is somewhat unique to Destiny but it always get the short end of the stick from Bungie

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 10:42 AM PDT

    Having no variety

    taking the worst part of Prime and regular Gambit and combining them into one

    Not adding new maps since season 6

    No endgame

    Not dealing with its current problem and ignoring it for more than half a year

    Not even being mentioned in the state of the game or at all in any TWAB beside the one about weapons

    Such a wasted potential for something that could be truly unique to Destiny

    I would like to thank Savathun for making traveling around the Tower much easier

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 10:21 AM PDT

    That ball in the middle of the drop in the tower makes it so much easier to go to Zavala, collect the Vanguard Prime engram, then go to the Cryptarch to decode it. Also just in general moving to and from different places is quicker.

    Does T7 Resilience actually let you survive a sniper shot in GMs?

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 11:28 AM PDT

    TL;DR: vandals sniper shots will kill you at less than 5 resilience if running no resist mods.

    I've seen it mentioned by redditors on r/DTG that T7 resilience will help you survive a sniper shot in Grandmasters. I haven't seen any testing to prove this so with the launch of GMs for the season I set out to test it myself.

    In order to test this I loaded into the Glassway GM solo and cleared out the first group of marauders, shanks and the overload champion, right after this first group is killed there are two vandal snipers, I killed the first sniper and used the second to test various resilience values and resist mods. The Glassway has a modifier which increases incoming void damage and since vandal sniper attacks are arc this modifier has no effect.

    The following is a screenshot compiling each test and how much health remained after a single shot. A single snipe at T1 to T4 resilience resulted in death so those are not shown. I did not test above T7 since I was out to find the bare minimum required to survive a sniper shot.

    When the resist mods were reworked in Beyond Light there was much talk and testing done so nothing I'm demonstrated pertaining to them is new but I think the key takeaway is how much more of an impact on survivability running the right resist mods are compared to just running high resilience. This doesn't mean that resilience is completely worthless, rather if used in combination with proper resist mods it should give you many more options when building for survivability in GMs. Also protective light and 6+ resilience make a great pairing since any less and you could die before protective light even activates.

    A word of caution before you put any of this info to practical use, my testing was done using a vandal sniper which is only a minor enemy, it is quite possible for sniper attacks from bosses or champions to one-shot you if you only run the bare minimum T5 resilience and no resist mods. I plan on looking into this again when Insight Terminus rolls around since there's a sniper hobgoblin Champion right at the beginning.

    Final weird tidbit, I tried testing resilience weeks ago by running a Legendary Lost Sector at 27 LL under and managed to survive a snipe at T1 resilience fine with no resist mods so there appears to be hidden variables for damage taken in a GM besides simply being under leveled.

    I kinda wish there was an 11th eternally open engram slot for decoding random legendary drops

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 09:53 AM PDT

    First world problems i know, i know. But if you aren't aware legendary drops still actually drop as engrams, they just auto decode on pick up. However, if you're like me and horde like a goblin and then turn in engrams enmass sometimes this means that drops that should auto decode instead go to your postmaster or cant be picked up because of said caveman loot goblin "my stick, me keep all stick" mentality.

    Like i said first world problem, just wish there was a slot for it so i can enable my loot goblin habits.

    Double Valor and Infamy Weeks should also come with increased or double drop rates for playlist weapons.

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 06:31 PM PDT

    IMO other than for seasonal challenges and quests increasing rank for valor and infamy is not really that great because you cannot obtain the playlist weapons from the vendors. As a result, it would be great if Bungie could at least add the playlist weapons to drop from the vendor rank up packages or increase the drop rates from the playlist during those weeks with increased valor and infamy gain. Thoughts?

    Bungie, if you're insistent on making Raid Exotics require 30+ runs, meet us in the middle. Make it available for Spoils for a high price. At least with that I can feel like I'm making progress toward it instead of feeling like a victim to poor RNG.

    Bungie brought back the DC and Moon weapons. Amazing. Now bring back the Trials of the Nine weapons.

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 10:39 PM PDT

    I will die in the hill that Prophecy should have contained at least the first pool of Nine weapons. I realize the guns they added were from sunsetting destinations, part of the prophecy, but they could have just had a massive pool. They already added 2 armor sets to one dungeon.

    But even still. The Nine weapons are imho the sexiest in the entire game. Just gorgeous models, that also take basically ANY shader magically.

    AND…a lot of them were also very good in their time. Some, like Hung Jury, I just want back for sheer nostalgia (my favorite gun in D2 for awhile was the Prosecutor).

    Please please, I'm groveling here. Unlike porting guns from D1, the Nine guns are from D2. They just need new perk pools/4 perks, and they are good to go. And there is a ton of them to choose to re release back in waves.

    I don't even have them anymore, because I switched over from console to PC BEFORE cross save came out. So I can't even use the light capped once for fun.

    TL;DR The Trials of the Nine guns were amazingly beautiful, powerful, and have a distinct art style. They should have been in Prophecy. Please re-introduce them. Imho, they never had their fair shot when they came out, longevity wise.

    I found out shotgun dropoff start in meters from a simple equation

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 06:18 PM PDT

    TL;DR it's 0.04 x range + 6 = range in meters, and it goes from 6m at zero to 10m at 100 range. THIS DOES NOT EQUATE TO OHK RANGE. ONLY DROPOFF. DROPOFF ONLY AFFECTS OHK ON AGGRESSIVE SHOTGUNS, AND AGGRO FRAMES ONLY, IF IT'S WAY BELOW 7.5M OR 40 RANGE.

    OHK on shotguns generally depends on the cone angle which can only be altered by frame or full choke (confirmed by Chris Proctor, lead sandbox dev). Anyway, functionality should be added to D2Gunsmith soon (tm) (shoutout to his only dev Dre, he is a beast! Go tip him a pizza!) and Clarity, a DIM plugin (shoutout to his dev Icemourne!) that shows dropoffs. I got three range datapoints from my friends Kutsuu and Castle (check him out in YouTube, he makes great vids!) ran a simple regression model with them, and results were around those numbers. Their data to double check: shotgun dropoff: 35 range stat = ~7.5m, 66 range stat = ~8.8m, 83 range stat = ~9.5m, measured in DARCI on pvp.

    Against a pike in pve (to have big numbers, pikes show distance to them) I got my 86 range Riiswalker to start dropoff past the 9m mark (9.44m in theory), and my OS Felwinter at around 8m (should be 7.88m base, 1.05 x 7.88 with opening shot).

    If you guys find out any problems with my numbers feel free to correct me! And you can always double check it yourselves in pvp or pve.

    With more Dreaming City weapons back, we need a weapon focus system like the lectern of enchantment or umbrals

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 05:19 PM PDT

    Pretty much title. Last season, I was farming for the reissued DC shotgun and it was pain to get low stat rolls on armor or bad perks on the weapons. With umbrals in the game again, it would be nice if we can focus DC weapons using umbrals or quick destination quests like the moon has.

    Artwork Here!

    I recently finished this commission of someone's hunter doing what gunslingers do. This is the second one I've done very similar to this. I may be a sworn and beholden warlock through and through, but I always love drawing these cowboys.

    Hope you all enjoy as well!

    Exotic Idea: Aeon Force Trace Rifle

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 05:00 PM PDT

    Exotic

    The Aeon Cult has branched out and made it's first weapon, the Aeon Force, a Trace Rifle

    Supports 3 different Aeon Mods:

    Sect of Passion

    Aeons's Fury

    • Solar energy

    • Leaves a solar burn on targets for 5 seconds.

    Breaker Chant

    • Targets affected by Aeon Force with a different Sect also pierce their barriers. Strong on Barrier Champions

    Sect of Flow

    Aeons's Calm

    • Arc energy

    • Killed targets explode. Majors and Elites have larger explosions.

    Stun Chant

    • Targets affected by Aeon Force with a different Sect also Stun them. Strong on Overload Champions

    Sect of Attunement

    Aeons's Calm

    • Void energy

    • Targets affected pull other enemies nearby toward the affected target

    Halting Chant

    • Targets affected by Aeon Force with a different Sect also Stun them. Strong on Unstoppable Champions

    Idea

    My idea for this originated from Ghostbusters and crossing the Proton streams and I thought that might be kind of cool to have "crossing the streams" with Trace Rifles that would create a type of benefit.

    Look out for your fellow new players!

    Posted: 25 Jun 2021 12:31 AM PDT

    So the other day I was on discord lfg, made a post for the 1340 nf, one guy joins, he's high enough light, it's all good. The next guy joins, he's low light with weird gear that looks like he hasn't tried at all.. check his gauntlets, an overload mod, but there's no overload champs anyway. I start the nf anyway, because it's no big deal, we can carry him through & he can go on with his day. The guy gets instantly sniped by a vandal & asked in the chat why he died so quick & we explain his lights lower than the enemies so they're stronger than him. At the end of the nf & many deaths later he apologises a million times & I'm like hey, it's fine man, your low light it happens. He mentions he's only been playing the game for 5 days & is struggling to understand how it all works, 5 days!! Back in D1 when my guardian was 5 days old I couldn't imagine doing nightfalls! I felt bad & thought that I should help out the guy so ask him what pinnacles he wants to do that he can't solo, he mentions prophecy, & literally earlier that day I'd completed my first solo flawless prophecy so I was burnt out of the dungeon, but we went in & did it anyway. It felt nice explaining something to a guardian when I knew it all in the back of my head. We completed it & he got some cool gear, he thanked me for teaching him & I got offline. I'd never had an interaction like that before, never played with new players, it was a real breathe of fresh air. So if you ever notice a player with weird gear who looks a bit confused, send them a message & see if they need any help. It's honestly a lot of fun.
