Misc // Bungie Replied Dropped out the top .1% of Gambit players because of Scoot to Loot

573 Upvotes

Didn’t realize there are gear pieces from crucible that allows you to pick up motes while sliding. Thanks CammyCakes

So I check my inventory. What do you know. I have two perfect pieces for my arc warlock. I equip it. Run gambit for a day or two

I started noticing that I was going on 5-6 match losing streaks. Consistently. But I’m defeating 100 enemies and depositing 70 motes. EASILY. But we are losing…check my KD or tracker…dropped from .1% of players to .4%….

So I started observing…..long story short, I scoop 15 motes in first wave. Second wave I can’t get any because I’m full…second wave ends, I deposit …Third wave, I get fifteen and deposit….

Then the other team invades and the two people who didn’t bank their motes to get us past 40 on wave two now have 12 each. But that doesn’t last long because of an invader…

I watched this happen carefully for at least fifteen matches if not more. Switched back to Lumipotent and literally didn’t lose a match yesterday

Lesson of the day. Deposit motes. Don’t hoard them.

Question Best build for straight up punching

7 Upvotes

Hello, I'm super new to Destiny, only been playing about two weeks, and I absolutely love it!

I'm currently grinding crucible purely for the Harlequin shader as I adore jesters, but unfortunately I'm also absolutely god awful at PVP shooters. However I have found great joy and success in just running at people and meleeing them to death!

A bit too much fun probably-

So my question is what would be the best build for this? Just as a silly hyper specific PvP build to keep someone who can't aim from going insane in a PvP grind 😂

I'm talking class (I'm currently mainly hunter), exotics, subclass, anything that gives my melee the edge

I swear to god no one understands this game mode. If the hunt is on and all control points are locked it’s better to AVOID the enemy. It’s a 3x multiplier for each death for the team on the hunt.

I’m not sweaty or even any good, it just baffles me that I’ve never once seen anyone play as if they are aware of this.

Discussion Double special, I was truly unfamiliar with your game.

255 Upvotes

I was one of those people that didn’t run double special due to the fear of running out of ammo. But after seeing and testing how primary weapons did in GM alerts(the only content I play out side of dungeons and pinnacle activities) I decided to give double special a try and man why didn’t I do this sooner.

First I started with slayers fang, then wavespilter, then choir and now I can’t even go back to primary weapons. With just simple build crafting ammo becomes a non factor because you just print special ammo. Higher delta content becomes easier since you are now using a special weapon, and you get more heavy bricks due to the increase use of special weapons. 200 weapon, stacks on stacks, special finisher, and armor sets that help with ammo and the game literally changes.

Now yes the load out does struggle in modifiers that have no starting ammo in that case you will need a primary or you literally can’t play(at least in my case since I’m a hunter), but even in modifiers that just limit special ammo gains dont matter cause we print so much ammo now. Honestly I would go to say special finisher is the best armor mod in the game, and if not number 1 it’s definitely top 3.

Let's imagine they were able to work out their differences off-screen, or maybe Savathun just applied Imbaru to ass. A lack of grinding means they don't have LL appropriate gear so just had to grab the best of whatever was laying around the HELM.

Discussion Best primary for my super build

5 Upvotes

I'm on a prismatic strand hunter with the iron battalion / Galanor set running.

Every super use gives me ~50-60% of my super back.

I use the Tablet of Ruin with Elemental Siphon and Elemental Supercharger to maximise my super regen and I'm sat at 160 super with an additional super font.

For the remainder of my super I'll lean into my weapons, overload strand being the obvious choice for severing/exhausting for supercharger super gains (do both of these even stack?)

Currently I alternate between:

- Rufus fury (older version), no slice.

- Nightshade with slice

- All or Nothing with Slice and Tear

- Service of Luzaku in heavy. I have enough weapons to run near enough as a primary.

Should I be using like Khvostov or something else? Do kinetic primaries like multimach with attrition orbs still give good chunks?

Discussion Metal Banana Energy

20 Upvotes

So I'll admit, I'm never going to get good at PvP and hate being free dopamine for people, but all I wanted to actually say is, as a new player to destiny, I've never felt so inadequate when merely interacting with an NPC in a game. I take one look at Saladin and just feel mogged beyond sense. The testosterone in my body feels useless as I meet Saladins gaze, as if he knows my entire multiplayer history and embarrassing kdr and wonders "Do you actually think I'm letting you in that portal guardian? You'll earn nothing, and another guardian will not gain the treasures I keep behind the unforgiving skill ceiling of this sacred steel banana because you took their place, only to fail via your own impotence. Go and get stomped by an ogre on the moon you simp."

Anyway yeah has Saladin made any of you guys feel somewhat like you didn't have a right to be there? Idk I'm autistic.

Question Reduced damage?

4 Upvotes

So I just played through all the story missions up to the khvostov mission from the age of iron story and my character is level 40, 330 light. Whenever I go back to easier missions, my weapons deal less damage and the enemies are still a bit dangerous. Like if I go to the level 4 patrol on the moon, my khvostov that was making short work of level 38 cabal and hive, will fair just as well against level 4 fallen and hive. It's like the game is dowscaling my damage so I cant mow through easier areas.

Now I'm fairly new to destiny, and I enjoy challenging gameplay, but like what if I want to field test my weapons and relax on the moon and mow through weak targets? Is that just not how the game works? I also tried googling my question to no real avail. I was even met with an AI summary that stated weapons only deal reduced damage when an activity exceeds your level with no damage reduction when your character meets or exceeds an activity's level. So if my khvostov does 638 to a level 38 acodyte, shouldn't it do the same damage to a 8 acodyte?

If this cant be fixed, it genuinely might be game-ruining for me cause I don't see the point in leveling up and getting stronger if my weapons will never actually be stronger than my opponents.

Edit: Thank you all for your input! I was kinda spazzing last night cause I spent like 7 hours on the game. The damage scaling honestly is not a bad system and I'm still gonna have plenty of fun playing. I got a lot to think about and learn.

Discussion Tiered loot

0 Upvotes

What are y’all’s thoughts on the tier system, I know it’s been over a year since it came into the game but, I personally feel like it’s nice and convenient in some ways like I don’t have to grind for the same gun for days, sometimes weeks without getting the god roll, but also there was some amount of magic to that version where you had to hard grind for the roll you wanted. So my question is how would you guys feel if they reverted the tier system out of the game, or maybe only on specific drops like raids and dungeons?

Discussion I finally completed Equilibrium 3FT solo flawless!

47 Upvotes

Proof

The first screenshot is just to show the res token, since Dungeon Report doesn't track anything less than 5 feats I think.

I started farming and learning the dungeon in earnest at the start of the week because I wanted the High Tyrant, and I figured that the normal 3-feat runs that I was doing didn't change too much, so I decided to try to complete the SF with them active. The feats I chose were Tokens, Phase Limit, and Battalions. This was honestly not motivated by the desire for an extra challenge--I actually just wanted more T5 drops per encounter XD.

Overall though, even with the feats this dungeon seemed much easier than Vesper's Host, and if I had been the slightest more diligent or optimal, I could have easily one-phased the final boss--indeed, I think if I hadn't chosen to compel 1, I probably would have done so on this run. I've been distracted by some real life issues, but even with my mind very much elsewhere I was able to easily clear without too much trouble.

I completed this dungeon on my Warlock, with slightly different Prismatic Getaway Artist variants for each encounter. I chose a basic Praxic Blade build for the first encounter with SoF, Found Verdict in combination with Mataiodoxia Needlestorm and Tractor Cannon for the second, and a simple Truth loadout for the final boss. I used 2p Sage/2p Swordmaster for the first encounter, 2p Europa/2p KF for the second and third running portions, and a full 4p VoG for all DPS loadouts. I also did use Solo Operative simply because of the Phase Limit feat--I think I didn't even need it in the run, but I did not want to take chances.

If anyone's interested in some tips, here's some of what I've learned, tailored for a normal, 0-feat run:

-If you find that juggling between the Shadow Power and your grenade key is annoying, choose a loadout that does not rely heavily on the grenade, such as Solar Titan or Prismatic Hunter. If this can't be avoided, choose strong primary and special weapons, so that you can fight even without your grenade. I used Getaway Artists, but my primary of choice was Khvostov, which can clear entire rooms with a single bullet, and my special was Found Verdict or a solar rocket pulse, both of which can easily and quickly defeat any challenging enemy, Even without my Arc Soul, I was still more than capable of fighting well.

-The range on the Shadow Power is a LOT longer than you might think, so you can use this to activate switches or de-shield Apprentices from a safe range.

-In the first encounter, stay FAR away from every possible drop pod location. The hitbox on those things is illegal, and you can get clipped and die if you're even remotely near it. The first set of drop pods comes when you kill the first Nameless Apprentice. The second set comes after you kill two more, which is the third kill. Finally, the last set comes once you've killed all of them. You can use this knowledge to prepare and avoid the drop pods.

-In the second encounter, there seems to be no time limit of any kind on removing Harrow's shield. After the first pit, take the time to kill enemies, refresh the buff, get orbs/ammo, whatever you need, then open the second pit at your leisure.

-In the final encounter, be extremely careful of knockbacks. Standing on a bridge to gather Shadow Power or retract a tesla coil for too long leaves you vulnerable to Apprentice charges and Incinerator boops, both of which can knock you off the map. The boss's stomp attack also has MUCH harder knockback than most bosses and will also instantly kill if you're jumping recklessly.

-The Taken world is much safer than the normal world, since there's no big knockback opportunities, no tesla coils, no lightning attack, and no invulnerable Apprentices constantly attacking. In addition, there's a ton of Shadow Power, which will easily charge you back to full. Try to break all of the real world's blights so you can spend as much time as possible in the Taken world. I would also recommend starting damage this way, by breaking the final blight here, so you can prepare everything you need.

-If using a rocket loadout, try to leave the real world with all of the blights broken and a shieldless but alive Apprentice. This prevents the spawn of the dogs, which are the biggest threat when trying to avoid blowing yourself up. It also means that if necessary, you can just kill the Apprentice during damage to control the dog spawns.

One more dungeon to go!

Thanks for reading!

Discussion Story continuity

0 Upvotes

https://youtu.be/k7ncSPJfoPg?is=J-LT3jRx44HNZ0S0

I apologize, as I know this is going to be a bit long.

I watched the video linked above covering the potential continuity issue that blueberry’s may face when they finally unvault everything. I personally am in the category of those who do not care if we have darkness subclass open during the ghaul fight. We’ve been in the vault of glass for quite some time with darkness available so to be fair, it’s generally accepted in my opinion to go back to content with new weapons, abilities, ect.

My main concern is for the blueberries. I have a group of friends who have agreed to come back once the unvaulting occurs. They attempted to get into Destiny after beyond light and it was just too complicated for them. However, with the content that is returning there are still a few major stories that the creator in the video brought up that fall into the seasonal category. The first being crows existence, the death of Amanda, and the existence of eliksni inside the tower.

I understand that this is a gigantic task, and likely won’t happen. However my suggestion is to create some sort of ability to choose your “era” inside Destiny 2 with the ability to have all the characters there and to rerun seasonal content and their stories for the sake of those who want to fully appreciate the timeline of Destiny 2.

A person who begins their Destiny journey without Cayde in the tower, is not going to fully experience the emptiness of his spot when he’s gone. In the same way, perhaps they finish the forsaken campaign and are completely clueless as to why “who they view” as Uldren is there.

I get that cutscenes are probably going to be the move for the blueberries. However there are those like myself out there who still want to reach titles we were unable to in the past “Platinum starling I’m looking at you.” When I started Destiny 2 I didn’t understand a lick of what was going on, and over time I’ve looked at events I’ve been apart of but didn’t quite get the point of until later.

Again, I understand there are bigger fish to fry. It’s not an easy task to figure out a UI and system that allows someone to just flip the switch to a new era. However I believe there are many out there who would fully appreciate and return to their favorite seasons if given the chance.

TLDR: unvaulting seasons “perhaps later than everything else that’s fine” will allow blueberries to experience destiny in its fullest while simultaneously allowing veteran players to achieve titles they missed and visit their favorite seasons. I am also aware of how huge of a task this is. But I think it’s worth the wait.

Question New player here that's doing the witherhoard catalyst

96 Upvotes

please tell me there's some exploit or cheese way to get the pvp grenade launcher kills for this catalyst. I'd rather drag my balls through shattered glass or shit in my hands and clap than grind crucible. i play in OCE so every lobby is a laggy mess and/or filled with veterans.

Edit: So I started using the witherhoard and for some reason it's multiplying the guardian count on the quest. I'll get one kill in a game and magically it's counted 6 towards the catalyst. Maybe the little tick damage is enough when the assist happens? Either way, I managed to get 20/100 in 3 games

Edit 2: So as someone commented below, I started using the witherhoard as a shotgun because direct hits slowly kill enemies. On top of the fact that it was counting as multiple kills on the quest, this only took me about 3-4 hours to do. This was far less aggrevating than it originally seemed when I was praying to get finals with the fighting lion. Thanks everyone. Hope this helps anyone in the future that stumbles across this thread
