It’s new expansion time with Bungie rolling out Destiny 2: Forsaken this week and with it comes all sorts of changes that might as well be an entirely new game…OK maybe not entirely. Forsaken does change quite a bit, though, and if freshly coming back or starting up these little list of helpful tips should set any Guardian on the right path to taking it easy while enjoying the most of Forsaken; this is not an end all be all just some things noticed in the initial first few hours that will make getting through The Reef and the rest of the galaxy easier when taking down the big bad Uldren.
Its seal is titled Brave, as expected, and is probably one of the most accessible seals in the entire game. It doesn’t require the completion of a Legend version of Onslaught, which is difficult, especially for solo players, so most of the triumphs can be completed in normal, matchmade mode. The hardest one for more casual players is the completion of The Whisper Exotic mission, which has returned to the game and is still in a timer. Those hopping in for the first time might struggle with The Whisper’s challenging platforming and non-linear pathing, coupled with the time restra
As a fan of Halo-era Bungie and of Destiny in general, it sucks having to point this out now that Bungie Controversy has finally shown some signs of passion for Destiny. Forsaken has all the hallmarks of a product that’s had some real love and care put into it, and the team behind it deserves all the praise and kudos that they’re currently enjoying for it. If it manages to meet the sky-high expectations this past week’s reveal has no doubt inspired in the Destiny community, then they’ll deserve even more. Forsaken and it’s team aren’t the issue here, but rather Destiny in general and specifically Bungie’s incessant need to squeeze its player base for all they’re worth. It can be done better. It is being done better by several others. So what exactly is Bungie’s excuse for treating their fans like a bunch of simpletons with bottomless wallets? Do they even think they need one? Hopefully they’re not that far-gone, but since they’ve been employing these same practices for almost three years now and are now escalating even further, refuting such an impression is difficult to say the least.
The Guardians of **Destiny 2 ** are once again celebrating the annual Solstice of Heroes, a month-long recognition of all the magnificent and wondrous deeds completed over the past year. Historically, Solstice has been a point of contention for many in the Destiny 2 community . The time required to achieve everything the event has to offer is often significantly longer than other events offered throughout the y
Cirrus Plaza has one central location that’s more open, but the rest of the map is all about very tight corners that favor fast-paced run and gun-style gameplay. Definitely get a shotgun or an SMG out for this map, and keep an eye on the corners. Given that shotguns and hand cannons have often been among players’ favorites, it could be that this map becomes one of the more loved ones in the g
The Halloween event in Destiny 2 is Festival of the Lost, featuring the Ghost Writer title. Similarly to the Star Baker, it includes various little grindy tasks, purchasing upgrades from Eva, and collecting candy during the ev
The Magnificent Armor is where the real work begins. Each player is gifted a Renewed set of armor that has low stats and looks old and dilapidated. Every piece of the set has a subset of tasks associated with it. These might include goals such as Complete Five Strikes, or Get 50 Precision Kills, or other things to that effect. Once players complete all requirements on all five pieces of gear, the armor can be upgraded to the Majestic versions with higher stats and better aesthetics. With this upgrade also comes a new, more challenging set of objectives to complete for each armor piece once again. In 2020, this first upgrade also unlocks the universal ornaments for the set as w
No matter if playing a Titan, Hunter or Warlock, each subclass now comes with an additional Attunement within it adding some spectacular new powers. Take the Warlocks Dawnblade which now has Attunement of Grace allowing for a super that slams a flaming sword into the ground creating a super rift that does AoE damage, is twice as large as a regular rift and grants both healing with empowering capabilities at the same time. It’s the ultimate team work class. Get to known the new Attunements because they are more than fun — they’re worth it. Getting these new Attunements isn’t easy, though, as Guardians will have to collect Visions of Light an item that looks like a glowing blue feather that only drops from powerful enemies. After enough have been collected, a quest will appear guiding the Guardian forward. The entire Attunement doesn’t unlock right away either, Forsaken wants the player to feel like they’ve earned being more powerful. Unlocking all the sub-classes won’t be done in a day and that’s a good thing.
