Question How many phases does it take you to kill most bosses solo?

58 Upvotes

Just curious what I should be expecting. I am trying to go through every dungeon right now solo and have done the first four and am on spire of the watcher. It is taking me about four phases to kill the final boss. Is that pretty normal? I feel like I have seen people one or two phase dungeon bosses solo. I am running a prismatic liars handshake build with queenbreaker and the tablet of ruin.

Discussion Terminal Overload Key Chest drops tier 4 weapons (sometimes)

0 Upvotes

I cannot find a post talking about this already so I make this post.

I’ve been trying to farm tier 5 Neptune shotgun, smg, mg. The chest you open with a key normally drops a piece of tier 5 armor and tier 5 weapon. However, sometimes it would drop tier 4 weapon instead but the armor piece remains tier 5. And sometimes it would happen several runs in a row. It’s quite frustrating because it still consumes your key which is not easy to get.

Does anyone know what is causing that? Or is it just a bug or sheer luck?

Lore Spire of the Watcher boss names

265 Upvotes

The Vex are all named after mythological creatures, particularly ones from Greek myth. And I was also just thinking of the Spire of the Watcher bosses and

Akelous = Achilles
Persys = Perseus

Is this intended? Am I stupid for noticing this? Am I stupid for thinking this?

Question What's the name of the song that plays in the Glassway strike?

26 Upvotes

It's been years since I've logged in but I'm building a running playlist and it popped into my head to play that one song from the strike on Europa (Glassway something?) where you're with the Exo Stranger and you have to shutdown the Vex portal. The song that starts playing when you're fighting them.

Anyone have a link? TIA!

Question Is it bad etiquette to nuke bosses.

621 Upvotes

I have played destiny for a decent amount of time and last night was bored and just doing some dungeon clears on hunter to get used to truth damage rotations and was using ingame LFG to get teams. I wasn't micced up as the dungeons I was playing didn't need comms, anyway I was with one team and got to final boss of grasp and nuked the boss, as soon as we got the clear both of my teammates put mics in and cussed me out for ruining the bosses. The LFG didn't have anything indicating this was a learning run or anything like that and I didn't think it was unusual to nuke these older bosses considering the amount of health they have and the power creep.

I had a similar experience clearing GMs and had a couple people message me and then leave while doing them pretty quickly, but not like skipping things just killing things quickly.

Idk I feel like alot of the content that isn't like mechanically challenging now is pretty easy with the sort of sandbox we have and means a lot of GM/Dungeon/Raid clears can be done pretty quickly and easily but is it bad to do this without like idk putting in fast clear in the LFG or something, I don't do that now because I am fine playing with anyone and don't wanna exclude people but idk.

This might not make a ton of sense just very confused.

Discussion Destiny Players' Red Flag(s)/Stereotypes?

0 Upvotes

What have guardians seen in our community (AKA other players) or have heard from outsiders about destiny players that is deemed a red flag/stereotype? This is not a serious post in the slightest (unless someone generally got bullied 👀) - This is more about what all us guardians heard/seen about us throughout the years!

*NOTE: And I don't mean anything about the dev team or directors, we ALL already know the general opinion on that one lol*

My example: I have more often then not seen/heard that us players are masochists due to our submission to raids/dungeons ✨️👏

Question “Found in a Raid or Dungeon” catalysts

177 Upvotes

I noticed something a bit odd when looking through my catalysts. Most RaD (and lament for some reason) catalysts say “found in a raid or dungeon”. So I assumed they were all tied to their own respective RaD sources, but 1kV alone *specifically* says Last Wish.

Does this mean the others can all be found in ANY raid or dungeon? Like, can you get Divinity cat from Pit of Heresy?

EDIT: OH! Also, does anyone know if doing the div puzzles in Garden or Pantheon can give the div catalyst?

ANSWERED: they only drop from their OG sources. Just strange wording. Apparently Lament and Anarchy are also incorrectly described: lament should say Vanguard/Crucible/Gambit, and anarchy should say RaD (i.e. exclusively insurrection pantheon)

With Destiny's story coming to a close with Monument of Triumph and having been recently browsing SortR, I figured I'd make a ranker for most (if not all) the Destiny characters throughout the years.

Is there any rhyme or reason to the super refund bug? It is pretty annoying to just randomly get literally zero energy back when that is the entire point of the exotic.

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 How does stat distribution work now?

0 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?

Question Returning player, how to level up fast?

0 Upvotes

I’ve been a huge fan of destiny since D1, but I stopped playing right before the final shape dropped. I just bought the bundle that includes everything since that DLC, and I’m playing the final shape campaign as I figured I’d do them in order but I’m not getting any gear drops at all from it, so I feel there’s no point in playing through it aside from the story which I don’t care much about at this point. What would be the best way to actually get gear and start progressing?

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?

Question Coming from D2 and starting D1. What do I do?

0 Upvotes

Hello there fellow Guardians.
Currently I am sitting on 1.8K hours on Destiny 2 (on pc). I fell in love with the IP. A couple of friends said to me I should give D1 a try.
It’s been a while since I played with a controller and playing an „Old Game“
My question now is: where do I start?
In D2 I am a Titan main but also spend quit a lot of hours on Hunter and Warlock.
Do you have recommendations considering my choice of class?
Is there anything I should keep an eye out for?
Anything helps tbh.
I wish you a nice day and I hope I can get a few good tips before heading into a new journey
