Destiny

TL:DR: This TWID is all about IRL community related stuff you can participate in to get emblems and other swag. I am personally not very interested in that kind of stuff but check it out if you are as some of it looks pretty cool and goes to good causes.

Hi folks, what sorts of things have you been doing on destiny lately? What are you finding fun?

I thought the new campaign was good, but I'm increasingly finding it difficult to put time into Destiny post campaign. The gunplay is still great but ... the game has felt repetitive and little frustrations like ambiguity about how you get the new exotic class items just really are getting on my nerves. I spent probably 4 hours today redoing the same overthrow and feeling to get the wizards to spawn.

I don't mean for this to be a negative post, but yeah; what do you enjoy about Destiny the most in 2024? Anyone here having similar feelings about the game?

TL;DR:

• Episode 1: Act 2 Livestream recap
• In Episode 2 all story content will release at the beginning of each act instead of weekly.
• Two new battlegrounds available July 16th. Third one on July 23.
• New and Returning Weapons:
  • Solar Rocket Sidearm
  • Arc Two-burst Pulse
  • Perfect Paradox (the GOAT)
• New artifact perks. Very sniper heavy.
• Some balance tuning changes mentioned that are coming in early August. Only a few specifics. Probably will be covered in another article in more depth.
  • Big thing to note is that Still Hunt+Celestial is getting a 25% dmg nerf.
• Solstice Armor lookin' hot this year. More details about the event in a future TWID.
• Havok Hardware in Crucible labs next week. Mayhem but for Special and Heavy drops.
• Next collab is RecRoom but only in that game.

Super late with this post

TL;DR:

• Episode 1 Act 2 starts July 16
• Iron Banner will now be two weeks instead of one.
• Khvostov getting nerfs to recoil and ricochet rounds in PVP only.
• Red Death is getting Pulse Rifle recoil instead of AR recoil.
• Speaker's Helm is getting it's orb generation disabled in Crucible only till a more proper fix can be implemented.
  • For those who didn't play Trials the last two weeks this helmet combined with Khvostov was one of the most toxic things I've ever seen in PVP. Whole teams of warlocks throwing heal turrets every single round bouncing buffed ricochet rounds across my whole team.
• More PVP changes coming with the mid Episode patch.

TL;DR:

• Surges are getting removed from Raids and Dungeons next week and HP and damage values are being adjusted to compensate.
• GMs and Salvation's Edge go live June 25th.

I pretty much have one friend that still playing destiny and we normally do dungeons when they come out blind and stuff but this duo mission was great for us to do blind with really cool mechanics and being designed for two people to complete. If you don't know what mission I'm talking about it's for the exotic class item you have to do all 3 overthrow events in the pale heart and kill a boss that spawns after then there is large beam in sky. Bungie really cooked with this DLC I expected to play the story and then pretty much call a quits for destiny.
