Destiny 2 Reveal Trailer March 30 10AM PT / 6PM BST

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 11:57 AM PDT

Bungie for the love of God, if the weapon and rarity system in Destiny 2 is unchanged, don't reveal the exotics on instagram and stuff.

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 04:59 AM PDT

I think even the last twitch reveal about the new gear was unnecessary. Just let people find out stuff. It's one of the reasons that made the original game exciting. Where's the excitement in getting loot when you know what you are getting? I don't know about the weapons and gear in D2, but it's a looter shooter; there are going to be some prized loot that stands above the rest. Just don't reveal them.

Thank you in advance.

Don't know if this is new or not, but when you complete the mission The Dark Within, your ghost will "glitch" back to Peter Dinklage and say "That Wizard came from the moon" before clearing his throat

How to Complete the Deathsinger's Challenge (w/ Video Proof)!!

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 12:08 PM PDT

Hey guys! My fireteam just figured out how to complete the Deathsinger's challenge in the updated Crota's End raid!! For video proof, you can see the below link; however, I will provide a text explanation as well.

Video Guide: https://youtu.be/SdhsixkF0uQ

Step 1: Kill all yellow bar knights in the arena BEFORE killing Ir Yut. Step 2: Kill the two additional yellow bar knights that spawn in her room. It will say "Ir Yut shrieks in fear" to confirm that you did this correctly. Step 3: Kill the 3 Yellow bar ogres and 6 yellow bar knights that spawn outside. Step 4: Kill sword Bearer that spawn in middle door. Step 5: Use it to kill Ir Yut. Step 6: PROFIT!!!

I hope you guys found this useful! Have a great day!!

Edit 1: Thanks to RegisteredVexOffender for the correction that step 1 includes all enemies, not just yellow bars!

Anyone else stoked about not having to run Zhalo on Siva strikes anymore?

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 08:56 AM PDT

So sick of Zhalo being the only option for arc nightfalls and strikes. When I get my beautiful Fang of Ir Yut back, I am going to hold her close for the rest of my life...

I miss you so much Fang (and my shattered vault cloak)

Edit: For those of you telling me all the other awesome options, I meant freaking primaries :-)

Is anyone else a little emotional? I mean I don't think of Destiny as a game anymore, it's an experience.

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 03:31 AM PDT

I have played Destiny since day one, developed an "addiction" one might say. The game grabbed my attention from the get go with the fantastic gun play, sure there were some missing elements but I didn't care about those. Destiny has earned me more people I can call friend than my real life has, and I don't shy away socially in real life either, it's just something about this game made me feel good.

But, tonight as I sit in my study, I am saddened, although Destiny 2 is around the bend and is sure to impress, I worry I will not make the same connections I did with Destiny 1. The age of triumph is Destiny 1's final Hurah, and in sure it will be a grand one. Here's hoping that Destiny 2 is just as good if not better than the original and brings us all closer together.

Sorry for the random post guardians, just felt the need to post my love for this game. Have a wonderful age of triumph guardians.

Edit: well, this was mostly sleep rambling but holy smokes Batman this took off, thanks for all of your comments guardians!!!

P.s. obligatory front page: HI MOM!

Playstation Exclusives confirmed to continue with Destiny 2.

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 12:23 PM PDT

Here's a screenshot from the end of the new Destiny 2 teaser trailer, from the version on the PlayStation channel.

Looks like identical situation as last time - "Content exclusive until at least Fall 2018" is exactly the same language used in previous trailers.

As long as we don't get a repeat of the Rise of Iron situation, currently everything seems to be pointing to year-long exclusivity for PlayStation.

Tip: Use Telesto in the beginning pit encounter of Crota's End! (with video)

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 04:14 AM PDT

Hey guys. SGA for running the pit later today: use Telesto! Why?

The pit/lamps is best and easiest when there's lots of explosions and lots of supers. Telesto was practically made for this raid encounter.

Telesto has Lightweight, which makes you faster.

Telesto has Battle Runner. Don't really use Battle Runner? It's super easy to proc and it makes a 10x Weight of Darkness feel like a 3x.

Telesto's signature perk allows the fusion bolts to stick to the ground/other enemies. If things get hairy, shoot the ground, run, and the thralls will chase and ALL explode. Or shoot a pack and watch them go boom!

But most importantly: multikills will spawn orbs for your teammates. It is so easy to proc this.

Here's a video of me shooting a small pack of thralls, and it makes 4 orbs.

/u/Mblim771_Kyle coming in clutch with the .gifv!

You will be chaining so many supers if you all use Telesto.

Firefly hand cannons and cocoon heavies are great and all, but Telesto turns the pit into easy mode! Try it out! Plus, who doesn't like using a super cool glowing blue fusion rifle??

(Don't have Telesto? The raid shotgun Quantiplasm also has battle Runner and gives increased armor as well.)

Doing Crota's End Tonight? Leave room for 3 emblems

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 05:43 AM PDT

When Crota first came out, it's emblem did not go to the postmaster. If you are aiming for the record book, leave room in your inventory for the two challenge mode emblems and the completion emblem (or keep that one in your inventory).

Heck, I'm going to have an extra spot open just in case there's a new 390 completion emblem as well.

u/apleima2 Suggests to make room for sparrows, shaders, and the like as well for collecting sake or if you don't have that page complete

Destiny Legal News 4.9

Posted: 28 Mar 2017 05:07 AM PDT

Lawyer guardian here,

So my old raid group got back together to take a run at flawless raider last night. I dusted off my old swordbearer shoes, thinking "hey, this should be a piece of cake, I got this."

I'm pretty sure I no longer have a raid group anymore. Don't be like me. Take advantage of the Tower's swordbearer workshop:

Destiny Legal News 4.9

Previous editions:

DLN Vol. 1

DLN Vol. 2

DLN Vol. 3

DLN Vol. 4

Also, this will probably be my last DLN until D2 starts rolling out. If people are interested, however, I will do a "celebrity edition" with all guest writers.

I just realized...they probably removed the rocks from The Abyss

So that we actually have to face the Thrall instead of just avoiding them by standing on the rocks.

Welp, here we go...
