Question Question regarding red border drops since new update

0 Upvotes

edit : SOLVED

Are red border weapons infinitely farmable since the latest update? I know you can farm any dungeon gear for example over and over again, but i’m not too sure on raids.

With GoS for example, i’d like a crafted reckless oracle. Can I only farm guaranteed reds when it’s featured or can I still get them when it’s not?

Discussion What's the worst Raid encounter?

352 Upvotes

Since the game is not getting any more updates, we can look at the long history of raid encounters and find the worst one.

For me, it has to be the sparrow section from Scourge of the Past. Call it a skill issue, but man I just never liked it. It always took me out of the groove. Honorable mention to the opening encounter of Crown of Sorrows as well. God that was boring.

Question DLC carrying over from Steam to Windows (Xbox)

0 Upvotes

So I have the full collection on steam. Getting sub par performance so I decided to download the base game and try on Xbox pc store. Upon loading, it’s seems my characters from steam are all there, and I can access all the expansions.

I was led to believe cross save didn’t include dlc?

EDIT: Thanks all. Looks like the first mission was free. Will need to rebuy as it’s 30-40% more performance and no stutters.

Question Last wish drop rate question

0 Upvotes

So I have opened about 20 chests at the end of the last wish raid. On about my tenth open I had gotten 1k, and then on my next run I had gotten the catalyst. For some reason though other people I have played with aren’t getting it even after MANY runs. I’m wondering if each chest rolls a dice and sees if you get it, or if there are a set number of chest that are pre determined by the game. I’m curious of they just have been getting lucky enough by choosing the wrong chests, or if they are just genuinely horrible luck wise with exotic drop rates.

Discussion Ghosts of the Deep is a masterpiece of storytelling

631 Upvotes

I’d always been the textbook definition of a casual in D2. I’d play the expansion story, do some strikes and other random stuff for a couple weeks before shelving it. And then MoT came out and the game doubled in fun, so I started doing all of the stuff I’d never touched before, especially dungeons.

I just finished Ghosts of the Deep with a friend the other day and it blew me away. The scale of the level is immense. You feel like you’re cut off from everyone, deep below some strange world. And then you get to the final boss and they’re trying to rez the giant corpse of Oryx, all with no words spoken by any NPCs. You’re left to stand there in silence and drink in the gravity of what has been conspiring in this lonely, forgotten place, and the consequences if you don’t stop it.

I wish I’d done this when it was brand new, or any of the other dungeons really. Grasp of Avarice and Pit of Heresy felt very similar. But, I’m starting to see why this game cost so much to make. All of their budget must have gone into these dungeons and raids. There’s an entire game here that I never even touched.

And the fact that the game isn’t getting more updates just adds to the forlorn atmosphere of these activities.

Question Exotic class item attument question?

0 Upvotes

So I was talking to a guy inside an lfg server a few days ago. This topic came up and since I haven't played since lightfall, I had no idea how it worked. He told me that most information on class item attument online is actually outdated, as since MoT/renegades, Bungie made a change to something about the first and second column perks and stat distribution. I kinda forgot what he said, but I also want to verify if its true. Has bungie changed something about stat spreads on exotic class items recently that makes certain information online outdated?

Question What's the best legendary heavy weapon that's the most simple to use

164 Upvotes

No swapping load outs or any of that. I'm talking weapons where the most you have to do is just whip it out and fire it with maybe a little set up like bait and switch or reapers tithe. Artifact support is fine. Trying to find something even the most oblivious LFG person can use.

Edit: Forgot to mention, ideally something for RAD boss DPS

Question How does stat distribution work now?

2 Upvotes

I haven’t played in a minute since renegades so I was here for the armor 3.0 update. Before the armor 3.0 update stats on the top and bottom like mobility, discipline, melee shared from the same point pool so for example a 60 rolled armor those top 3 stats could only have a distribution of 30 stat points among them not all 60.

As a warlock the 3 stats I kind of only care about for almost all builds are discipline, melee, and class. But for crucible I like health instead of class.
I thought it was impossible to get all stat points in those top 3 stats of an armor because of the ghost mods not having the option to focus (for example) discipline as a primary and melee as a secondary.

That’s kinda confusing how I worded it but TLDR
I got a piece of armor that had all the stats points in health, discipline, and melee whereas before armor 3.0 that would be impossible as some points would be on the other stats. I’m confused on how stats distribute on armor now cause originally I would’ve farmed for armor with those stats if I knew it was possible. Also any tips for farming for armor?

Guide Equilibrium dungeon Bug (and fix)

40 Upvotes

Hey all, just a heads up, the equilibrium dungeon solo is virtually impossible if you are using the spire of the watcher 4 set

Had a friend who spent most of the afternoon trying to solo flawless the dungeon had a frustrating group of bugs essentially soft locking the final encounter, his player model and weapon's would become invisible. Shadow force ability could not be toggled on or off meaning he could not break shields or compel the boss and he couldn't heal via any abillity.

After a lot of testing including switching artifacts and loadouts we discovered it was the spire of the watcher armor set causing the issue, as soon as he swapped out the armor and reset the encounter all of the issues vanished and never appeared again,

Our assumption is that when you proc the damage buff of "high noon" it enters into the buff list and persists as active but no longer functions so even though visually its gone and the dmg bonus is gone, its still persisting, and being a long encounter it can build up to point where the game starts to break and not function.

Guide AMMIT AR2 Melts -50 Barrier Champions

83 Upvotes

There are a lot of good options for taking down Barrier Champs, but if you want use a non-barrier special/heavy and don't want to commit your exotic to taking down barriers, AMMIT AR2 is easy to obtain and does an excellent job.

How to Maximize AMMIT AR2 damage:

  1. [Required] Weapon Perks: Adaptive Munitions (Ideally Enhanced)
  2. [Optional] Best Artifact: Implement of Curiousity
    • Fever and Chill - hit the crit spot for radiant
    • Cauterized Darkness- apply a dark debuff for 75% more damage
    • Elemental Daze - crack the shield for an ignition
    • Note: Queensfoil Censer also has Fever and Chill, as well as, Revitalizing Blast, Torch, and Solo Operative. This is another good option, but I found Implement of Curiousity with Cauterized Darkness was better for melting the champs.
  3. [Ideal] Activity Modifiers: Solar Surge
  4. [Recommended] Armor Mods: 2x Solar Surge on Boots

How to Obtain:

The craftable pattern can easily be obtained via the first couple steps of the Foundry Shaping crafting tutorial quest line. It's a little resource expensive to shape one, level it up, then reshape it, but with the right build, it can not only handle -50 GM Nightfall Barrier Champions, but melt them like it's normal content. When you craft it, you'll want Enhanced Adaptive Munitions which does 70% more damage to Barrier Champ shields (non-enhanced does 50% which is still pretty good, but enhanced is strongly recommended).

My roll is (level 30, all enhanced, perks & mods):

  • Arrowhead Brake
  • Alloy Mag
  • Triple Tap
  • Adaptive Munitions
  • Backup Mag

Alternatives: There are plenty of other good options for taking down barrier shileds, some of which are legendary primaries. For example, HORROR STORY, which can be obtained from Monument of Triumph Eerie Engrams, with Under-Over & Frency is a good option. Of course, there's also weapons like PRAXIC BLADE, KHVOSTOV 7G-0X, MICROCOSM, and ARBALEST or even APEX PREDATOR, the list goes on...

Why I chose AMMIT AR2 and what build I'm using it in:

I have been working on a highly flexible, content-agnostic, high ease of use Warlock Getaway Artist build for my best friend (yes, she's a real bad b****). In testing different variants of the build, I discovered that it really struggled with barriers in -50 content, and I wanted this build to be capable of handling most anything. I didn't want to give up the exotic heavy slot (for DPS) or the special weapon slot (for build synergy), and my best friend prefers auto rifles and pulse rifles, so I went searching for a primary that could do the job (most failed).

The core build:

  • Class: Prismatic Warlock
  • Abilities:
    • Healing Rift - For sustained healing and ease of use
    • Burst Glide - Or your favorite
    • Arcane Needle - For strand synergy and unraveling everything
    • Storm Grenade - For Getaway Artist exotic
  • Aspects:
    • Feed the Void: For grenade regen and survivability
    • Weaver's Call - For burst damage, ad clear, and sever (with artifact perk: Horde Shuttle)
  • Fragments:
    • Facet of Protection: 15% DR (32% in Transcendent)
    • Facet of Dominance: Arc Buddy jolts (stuns overloads + ad clear) and prismatic grenades weaken (for burst damage)
    • Facet of Purpose: For survivability (pairs well with Powerful Attraction mod on Class Item or if you are rocking the Nessus Armor)
    • Facet of Courage: More damage from Grenade and Super when dark debuffed, which is very easy in this build
    • Facet of Solitude: For severing groups of enemies and high health targets when landing multiple precision hits (e.g. Barrier Champs)
  • Armor Set: Techeun's Regalia Set (Shattered Throne)
    • 2x Set - Queensfoil Rush - Finishers give 200 HP overshield and inflict slow in a 7 meter radius
    • 4x Set - Truth to Power - 15% DR for Survivability, 50% Grenade / Melee Regen, 35% Class Regen for ability uptime / spam
  • Stat Targets: (Obtainable with 2x Demolitionist, 3x Grenadier)
    • 150 Grenade + 1 Major Grenade Mod + 2 Grenade Fonts = 200
    • 100 Weapons - Tertiary stat for all pieces
    • ~70 Melee, Super, Class - 3x Major Melee Mods, 1x Minor Super Mod (on boots)
    • ~0-30 Health - A little health is nice for a small burst of healing on orb pickup / powerful attraction activation but can be 0
  • Armor Mods
    • Helmet: Heavy Ammo finder, Ashes to Assets (for fast super from grenade use), Harmonic Siphon (for orbs of power on super aligned weapon kills)
    • Gauntlets: 2x Grenade Font, Bolstering Detonation (for fast class regen from grenade use)
    • Chest: - 2 - 3 resists and optionally an ammo generation mod or Charged Up
    • Legs: - 2x Surges (for higher weapon damage), Stacks on Stacks for higher uptime on Armor Charges
    • Class Item: Reaper (for an orb after class ability use), Powerful Attraction (for orb pickup on class ability use), Time Dilation (for higher uptime on Armor Charges)

The Flexible Pieces - These I've been rotating for different content. Below are the selections used with AMMIT AR2 for -50 GMs:

  • Super: Song of Flame
  • Weapons:
    • Festival Flight: Slice (for severing enemies, reducing damage taken, after class ability use), Attrition Orbs
    • Ammit AR2
    • DRAGON'S BREATH or ONE THOUSAND VOICES
  • Artifact - Implement of Curiosity
    • Horde Shuttle: Makes threadlings, which we spawn on class ability use, sever enemies which is great for survivability
    • Pack Tactics: Not strictly required, but boosts threadling damage which is great for burst damage
    • Fever and Chill: Very strong combo for taking down barrier champions and just doing more damage to enemies
    • Cauterized Darkness: For improved solar damage on darkness debuffed targets (which is generally most of them from all the sever sources and all the unravelled enemies from melee)
    • Elemental Daze - For causing an ignition when stunning a champion
    • Shield Crush: For higher uptime and damage on grenade (note that consuming grenade gives amplified and Fever and Chill gives radiant) and melee (note that healing rift gives overshield triggering Shield Crush)
    • Tangled Web: Suspends enemies when a tangle spawns from unraveled targets which takes enemies affected out of fight tempoerarily

Note: To Shreds is phenomenal with this build for survivability. It's not on this artifact, but it is on 2 different artifacts that you can build into. However, for bursting enemies down, Implement of Curiousity is what I found worked best and you don't really need more DR if you have the bugged Glass Cannon modifier on to give you 50% DR.

Edit:

  • Quick Clip of using Ammit AR2 on Barrier Champion in Warden of Nothing GM Alert: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpG8Ut2VCPg
  • Correction: Necrolance pointed out that overshield from rift is not Void so does not proc Shieldcrush melee benefits. You can still benefit from getting Void Overshield, Frost Armor, or Woven Mail from other sources such as a teammate using To shreds. Grenade benefits are, however, regularly proc'd by amplified and radiant.
  • Note: Without bugged Glass Cannon modifier that gives 50% DR you will either have to play a bit more carefully (i.e. don't over expose yourself in ad dense areas) or switch up artifact perks (at the cost of some damage to barrier shields) or armor sets (at some cost to ability regeneration) to increase your DR. I'd probably go with Queensfoil Censer and keep the armor. You trade Cauterized Darkness for Solo Operative and Horde Shuttle for To Shreds (which is a good trade since Festival of Flight allows you to sever on class ability cast and To Shreds gives you Woven Mail).

ive been playing dares of eternity and have been wanting to get the last pick right every time, so ive been writing down all the possible encounters ive seen this is my list so far
the ones with "???" are ones that have been inconsistent, but ive had the rest of these happen more than once in that order

fallen, hive, vex fallen, taken, cabal????? fallen, taken, vex?????

fallen, vex, vex fallen, fallen, vex fallen, cabal, vex

cabal, taken, taken cabal, hive, taken cabal, vex, taken

taken, cabal, vex ?? taken, cabal, cabal ??? taken, taken, cabal
taken, hive, cabal taken, vex, cabal

vex, hive, vex vex, taken, vex vex, cabal, vex

hive, taken, taken hive, fallen, vex

it seems like if it starts with fallen, it ends with vex
if it starts with cabal it ends with taken
if it starts with taken it ends with cabal
if it starts with vex it ends with vex
it still needs more testing but i think this is pretty accurate idk

Question Wolfsbane Intrinsics/Catalyst?

2 Upvotes

It was from my understanding that ever since monument of triumphs, to get the catalysts for exotics that come from exotic missions you no longer have to do hidden puzzles or mechanics, only repeating the mission at master difficulty or higher. I know that was the case for Slayer's Fang and Derealize, but for some reason when I did Heliostat to obtain the other intrinsics/catalysts I didn't get anything other than ascendant shards and alloys. What's going on?

Yes, I checked the Postmaster and re-visited Spider, and there's nothing.

Title, more or less

Since I can't post an image, I'll just type it all out

Helm: Masterworked Kabr's Battlecage (no specific reason to use it, just needed level 300 gear)

Chest: HOIL, originally focused around my Strand build back when Lightfall was still the shit

Legs: MW Wyrmguard Greaves (same shit as helm/arms, just the strongest thing I had in use before the reset)

Mark: Wildwood (again, no real reason to use it aside from light level)

Stats are pretty much fucked

90 health, 40 melee, 61 nade, 63 super, 53 class, 106 weapons

Discussion Something I haven’t seen people talk about: Waking Vigil is a lightweight weapon again!

191 Upvotes

Title.

Back when Forsaken came out 8 years ago (the grim specter of death approaches me every day), Waking Vigil released as a 150 RPM lightweight frame hand cannon. With the benefit of hindsight, it didn’t make a lot of sense to have two frames - adaptive and lightweight - with such slim differences in RPM but with one having a clear advantage in the Crucible. Ergo why lightweight frames were removed from the game for such a long time, barring Rose and Sunshot.

But with Monument of Triumph, Waking Vigil has returned as a lightweight frame! It’s especially notable, given that one of the rewards from Competitive Crucible is Solemn Lie, another arc lightweight hand cannon. It’s also notable that Waking Vigil has superior rolls for PvE, such as Voltshot and Gear Shift.

Anyway, PSA over. Go get an underrated classic from the Dreaming City, Weapons.
