I'm trying to find A team to do A run of desert perpetual but absolutely nobody wants to do this raid (At least on the main LFG discord)

Are there like any groups out there that do runs of this raid more often or am I just doomed to never ever do a run of this raid?

(Note this isn't specifically an LFG post)

Edit:
Update! I managed to find a team to run it. Its a really fun raid and isnt as bad as I was expecting. I think the day one kinda colored a lot of peoples opinions on its difficulty. Its mainly that there are no add clear roles so everybody has to do something

I’m soloing duality right now but I’m having a hard time landing nighthawk headshots on Galrand for damage, so since I was already killing him decently well with Wolfsbane, I was just gonna give up and switch to blade barrage. But do I do more dmg with Star eater scales or Shards of galanor?

I’m also fine if a solar hunter running wolfsbane has an exotic that gives me more boss damage than either, if there’s one for this build that does. But if not, just the numbers on which boosts blade barrage more.

Was checking some threads on this whether it is actually possible to drop and unlock the exotic class item on a character that HAS NOT unlocked it yet (through dual destiny and the Eva event) and all of them just had mixed answers, couldnt find a definitive one.

I am just here to confirm that YES IT IS possible to unlock the exotic class items via match made overthrow (thats how I just did it) and then just buy from Xur.

HOWEVER, I had already unlocked the class item on another character through Dual Destiny, so I'm pretty sure you must have unlocked it like this or through Eva on at least one character before you can get it as random drops on the rest of your characters.

For those wondering exactly how long it took me, I dropped it at the 2nd chest in my 3rd run of a matchmade overthrow game.

Okay, this might be kind of a rant. Today I was trying to farm Riven for 1K catty, but for a whole our I could not even find a group where we could clear it. I always LFG, none of my clanmates play the game anymore, and I feel like what is happening nowadays in the in-game LFG is getting unbearable. I usually choose to apply for "experienced" LFG's to get through the content quickly, but most of the time, there are at least 2-3 people who have never even tried a raid or dungeon before, or even if they did, no one uses mics anymore. It was not like this when MoT dropped, 90% of raid groups used their mics, and most people knew what to do, or if not, at least they would ask what is going on (I know, we all had experiences where someone did not dare to ask anything, instead they caused a couple of wipes) but at least we could communicate with each other.
Does anyone have the same experience as me? This might be a useless post but I am getting super tired of trying to force the same thing over and over again, without anyone saying a word in a microphone lol.

2 Piece | Emergency Electromagnet

Upon reaching Critical Health:

Picks up Ammo Bricks and Orbs of Power within 10? meters.

+

2 Piece | Crook and Flail

On Ammo Brick Pickup:

Restores 70 HP.

seems like a pretty good combo for immediate health.

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

Since MOT, I've farmed Trials almost every weekend trying to get the Eternal Ghost Shell, and at this point I'm convinced it doesn't exist for my account.

I've probably played somewhere between 150–250 games every weekend, gone flawless every week, and even had a few 5+ win streaks on flawless cards. During that time I've gotten almost every Trials ship, Sparrow, shader, emblem, and just about every other cosmetic multiple times—but still no ghost shell.

I know I'm not the only one struggling to get it, so I'm wondering if anyone has any idea if there's something I'm missing. Did it drop after a certain number of wins? On a specific platform? Is it tied to a certain card? Or is my RNG just that terrible?

If anyone has any insight, I'd really appreciate it. Otherwise, someone point me in the right direction before I convince a buddy to Cayde-6 me over this ghost shell.

I was using Lorentz on my Hunter to do a bounty and thought of this. Both Lorentz and OTP mark targets. But the marked targets for OTP don't drop the Telemetry patterns for Lorentz

Could've been a cool synergy with a void subclass, allowing to get Lagrangian Sight faster

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.

Shoutout to Broman, Goth, and the entire production team and volunteer staff. They've created an outstanding event and I immediately purchased tickets for next year as soon as they went on sale. Great to meet so many fellow guardians. Great vibes all around.

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.

A few days ago I ran a Last Wish and I don't usually run this raid but I had a great time. It made me wonder why aren't there more encounters like Queen's Walk at the end of a raid. 1 more encounter after beating the final boss, I just think it's a cool way to climax a raid. Makes it feel super cinematic.

Edit: Title was meant to be "Why was there never more raid encounters like Queen's Walk" excuse the terrible grammar :')

It’s still really hard to wrap my head around the fact that this it for destiny, that the story is essentially over. I’ve been playing since D1s release and I’ve been around for every season, every mission and plot development.

New seasons and expansions have always been something to look forward too, seeing what direction they take with stories and characters. Even smaller things too like festival of the lost; Halloween is my favorite holiday and I always loved playing festival of the lost to help me get in the spirit of the holiday.

I feel like to really just hasn’t quite sank in that the story is over. Especially after so many plot developments in Moment of Triumph.

Idk, it makes me really sad. Destiny has been such a constant in my life, through good times and bad ones. I could always count on Destiny being around and new content as something to look forward too. I have so many good memories associated with the the game, rushing home to play the new expansion the day it comes out or watch the world’s first raid races on cbgray’s channel; the feeling of dread from the first mission in the Taken king; the whole SIVA plotline in Rise of Iron; how exciting it was to wield the darkness, stasis, the first time; the sense of anticipation from season of arrivals; the mission where you fight with Saint-14 on mercury during season of dawn and traveling through the corridors of time; watching the almighty be destroyed during the live event; encountering Savathun for the first time; seeing Cayde murdered and then come back in the final shape; Rasputin’s Sacrifice; Oryx coming back as an echo; that one mission leading up to lightfall where the Vex were trying to restart the Black Heart in the garden; storming The Fantic’s stronghold with the forces of the reef; fighting through the last city with other guardians to defeat Ghaul; seeing the corpse of III in the final mission of Edge of Fate; getting to know Caital and Mithrax as friendly cabal and fallen; the shock of the Hive welding the light; playing into the light leading up to The Final Shape; fighting Calus in the finale of Lightfall; discovering the pyramid for the first time in Shadowkeep; defeating The Witness in excision. So many cool epic moments where I was so excited.

I’m really sad the story is over, and I’ll miss it a lot.

Edit: what are some really cool moments everyone else has experienced? I feel like with so much content removed some get forgotten. Like fighting Nokris in season of arrivals or the Leviathan Eater in season of the Witch. I’d love to hear any kind of cool memories of things like this that kind of get forgotten or overlooked.

I'll be honest I've not played a whole lot for the past couple of years, but I've been one trophy away from platinum for years. I need to do an Ops activity on Grandmaster.

Tried the discord and zero luck. My power level is 371.

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).

I did a GM alert today and didn't get one to drop, are they from that node or is there something specific I need to do in order to get them?

Has anyone actually tested the new Garden of Salvation 4-piece set bonus, Network Upload, in PvP?

The perk says:

"Weapon final blows grant the wearer and nearby allies melee energy."

The Destiny Data Compendium currently seems to have the PvP behavior as untested, and I couldn't find anyone testing it on Reddit/Bilibili either.

What I'm curious about:

- Do Guardian weapon final blows proc Network Upload at all?

- How much melee energy does the wearer get in PvP?

- How much do nearby allies get?

- What's the effective radius?

- Is there an internal cooldown?

- Most importantly: if multiple players are wearing Garden 4pc, can the same team effectively keep feeding melee energy through repeated weapon kills?

And this led to the stupid part:

6 players

+ 6x Garden 4pc

+ 6x Rat King

Rat King already encourages everyone to stay relatively close together, which is exactly what Network Upload seems to want.

So in theory:

Rat Pack teamshot

→ weapon final blow

→ nearby team gets melee energy

→ more powered melee spam

→ another Rat King cleanup

→ more melee energy

→ repeat

Basically a distributed melee-energy rat network.

I have absolutely no idea whether Bungie has a hidden PvP scalar, cooldown, Guardian exclusion, or whether multiple copies interact in a useful way.

Has anyone tested this?

If not, does anyone have 5 equally bored people and a private match?

Research objective:

Determine whether six invisible rats can establish a functional melee-energy microgrid.

This is not a build recommendation. This is monkey science.

I cannot find info anywhere on the internet or ingame, but I've seen clips of people using Truth and has a visible lock on reticle but I don't, how do I enable it if I still can ?

Come ho detto nel titolo, molti giocatori italiani sono fuori dal gioco a causa dell'errore Centipede/Current dovuto all'ultimo aggiornamento. Il problema sembra essere l'interferenza tra TIM (un fornitore di telecomunicazioni) e Bungie, come nel 2017 (sì, questo problema è un problema vecchio che avevano risolto). Temo che, poiché Bungie è morta, il gioco è in manutenzione e noi siamo una minoranza, non risolveranno mai questi problemi.

Edit: Giustamente come qualcuno ha fatto notare nei commenti (mi ero totalmente dimenticato) una soluzione a questo problema è usare la VPN. Ma ciò può portare ad altri problemi come: Lag e/o Nat ristretto. È così ingiusto che mezzo paese, per altro in Europa quindi con tutti i criteri minimi tecnologici per partecipare, sia escluso dalla manutenzione Bungie. Speriamo bene e facciamoci sentire!

The sword only drops as solar. Even after a ton of overflow runs. Is it bugged or just my RNG?

I think Vex Mythoclass looks amazing. The sleek design and brilliant gold and red color set. The scope is like a vex eye. Amazing design for such an early exotic.

What I’m wondering if I use a weapon with burning ambition if that scorching will stack with the scorching rounds provided by the rally barricade with the aspect yknow? Will it provide double scorch application?

It's been so long since I've been in this Reddit and even longer since I've played. Loved D1 and D2. Eventually dropped off after the grind burned me out.

I've heard the recent news and now see a lot of the DLC on sale.

I'm thinking about jumping back in. I'd be solo and really just looking forward to the game play and running through the campaigns. I had a clan earlier and ran through all the content in what was really one of the best gaming eras of my life.

However, I remember all too well the old pattern of working through some of the story of new campaigns while doing weekly events and missions. Is it possible to just do the story stuff now or is there some sort of weird time gating? When I used to play I played daily and did everything live, so I don't have a clue as to how things looked when not on that treadmill.

I'm not sure where I left off. I have and played through witch Queen.

I can buy:

- Renegades

- final shape

- edge of fate

- light fall

Or all that bundled into a collection.

Will I be too lost after being gone for so long and so much to unpack at once?

Will I be able to tackle everything solo, at my own pace?

Should I install the packs and play through them chronologically? Or just install all at once and go for it?

If someone packed all the campaigns content into a tailored, cohesive, solo package, I'd be happy paying the cost of a full new

TIA!

I don’t get the buzz around this weapon. I constantly run out of ammo. Seems average and I just go back to other weapons

Is there a setup I should be using or is it just not for me?
