To turn the page back to the beginning, Bungie Day is a holiday started by our community. Every year on the seventh day of the seventh month, we join our fans in celebrating the community as a whole— reflecting on friendships forged, sharing war stories from past skirmishes, or even flipping through some old photos of events where fireteam members met in person for the first time and solidified their bond for years to come. This year, we have some exciting news. Moments of TriumphStarting right now, Moments of Triumph for Destiny 2 are available on Bungie.net! From now through August 28, 2018, players are invited to complete various in-game objectives to earn progress toward Triumph Points, which will unlock unique rewards. What's available today is just a taste of what's to come with the Solstice of Heroes event, which will expand the list of Triumphs and rewards that players may earn. The complete list of Triumphs will become available in-game starting on July 31, 2018. Some of the hardcore veterans among you may have already done everything there is to do thus far, but some of you might have some progress to make in the next few weeks. When Solstice of Heroes begins, Triumphs will become available in-game that track your progress towards Moments of Triumph. As you complete these Triumphs, they will increase your score, which will unlock certain rewards at different point thresholds. Here is the breakdown of rewards for crossing each point threshold:
The Solstice of Heroes Moments of Triumph T-shirt redemption page is live now, but you won't be able to secure your code until Solstice of Heroes begins on July 31, 2018. After you complete enough Triumphs in Destiny 2 to reach a score of 250, you can go to the Moments of Triumph page on Bungie.net to retrieve the code you will need to purchase your customizable T-shirt. These are not the only rewards you can earn during the Solstice of Heroes. We'll have more specifics on that leading up to the event. Stay tuned to the blog on July 17, 2018, for more details. All information concerning Moments of Triumph for Destiny 2 is currently available in the Destiny 2 Solstice of Heroes: Moments of Triumph Guide. The Moments of Triumph FAQ is also available in this Help Article. But Wait, There's More!That's not all. The Bungie Store also has a new collection of wares to celebrate this community holiday. Who knows, you may meet a fellow Guardian who recognizes your swag and joins you in a future raid. If you make a purchase this week, you will also receive a code for the Day of Seven emblem, available through July 14, 2018. Best of all, when you do business with the Bungie Store, you're helping to support the Bungie Foundation. Event DecorationsAs our last gift to you on this community-created holiday, here are some Forsaken wallpapers to decorate your devices while you count down the days until September 4. Thank you for creating this holiday. It gives us another moment to celebrate this community, how far it's come, and everything you've accomplished over the years. Thank you for your passion, your inspiration, and your Light. There will be more events throughout the summer that will serve as an appetizer leading up to the launch of Destiny 2: Forsaken. Until next time! Now we have some Triumph Points to grind… Happy Bungie Day. Cheers, Dmg04 [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Happy 600,000 subscribers! On 7/7, no less Posted: 07 Jul 2018 04:29 AM PDT We've hit 600k on Bungie Day (7/7/18). A big milestone on a coincident day. Welcome to new subscribers!

| To all those people who do the raid, please refer to yourself in third person. Posted: 07 Jul 2018 09:16 AM PDT This is super important if there are 6 different strangers in the raid fireteam. Referring to yourself in third person will definitely save time and avoid confusion. I have been observing this problem for a long time now, hence this post. Let me give an example: "Who's got Superior Retainer?" Someone replies back saying "Me". And that starts the confusion. So, in future please refer to yourself in third person and if your PSN/Gamertag is long, say a shorter version of it.

| How to oneshot a Cabal Thresher. Posted: 07 Jul 2018 04:38 AM PDT So, with the nightfall being Arm's Dealer this week, I felt the need to go in there and mess around solo. While I was doing so, I noticed something I hadn't noticed previously - when using the delayed detonation grenade launchers (Fighting Lion, Flash and Thunder, etc.) the impact of the grenade hitting a target does damage. Not the explosion, the grenade just bouncing off of it without exploding. That got me thinking if there was a way that I could exploit that. Get a grenade stuck bouncing somewhere. At that point, I thought of the "vents" on Cabal Thresher gunships. Now, this is possible to do from in front of them, but its ALOT easier to do from behind. Fire a grenade into the vents and just hold down the trigger, do not let it detonate. It will glitch into the vents, and start bouncing around rapidly, every bounce doing damage. With a well placed grenade, you should kill the Thresher in a single shot. EDIT : Due to popular demand, I'm working on getting a capture of this for reference. EDIT 2 : Okay, got a capture of it. Here's Flash and Thunder doing the trick on a Thresher in Normal Nightfall. https://webmshare.com/play/JZr6L [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Moments of Triump Live in Companion App Posted: 07 Jul 2018 10:03 AM PDT Moments of Triumph are live in the companion app. Edit: Here's a Screenshot Edit 2: I missed the part about it being app only so I removed that statement. The armor shown in the header seems to be updated versions of Ikora's but with chromas and different accessories. If you completed all the revealed activities you should be at 225 points out of 400.
Edit 3: Rewards will be available in game starting on July 31st [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I cosplayed my Destiny character at Anime Expo Posted: 06 Jul 2018 07:12 PM PDT https://imgur.com/gallery/pwwPb7Q I cosplayed my Hunter today at Anime Expo.

| An Exotic SMG that's a Flamethrower. Posted: 07 Jul 2018 07:44 AM PDT It should send out a steady stream of flames that burn targets and linger on the ground. I think it would be cool! Thoughts? [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Bungie, One significant sandbox update for the year is a joke. Posted: 07 Jul 2018 12:13 AM PDT Somehow you took our gripes about the plodding, grounded, static pace of crucible under the 450 auto meta, and made it even more plodding, grounded and static with what amounts to basically one significant sandbox update for the year. Competitive weapon variety limits you to taking either the Vigilance Wing or the Graviton Lance, as both guns vastly outshine anything else at most ranges. The problem isn't necessarily that these guns are too good, so save the eyerolls about how we asked for lower TTK. The problem is, these guns significantly outperform most other weapons at most ranges. Bring more stuff up (preferably hand cannons). Crucible went from "ugh" in Seasons 1-2, to "oh God, no" in Season 3. You've taken a major component of your game and rendered it tedious. This is coming from someone who gutted out a 2.0+ kd, weekly flawless trials runs and tens of thousands of crucible kills in Season 2 alone. This meta sucks, guys. It's a chore. I'm sure that, like in so many other years past, support for the current game is limited by development of the Fall expansion. I tell you though, as someone who loves the game, and has an affinity for the dev team and the passion they put in their work, I'm struggling with finding a reason to buy Forsaken and a season pass. You've told me how great Forsaken will be, I get it, good hype. But you haven't shown me how great my year with that expansion will be. By show I mean, I'm not looking for another trailer or another dev monologue. I'm looking for actual support of the game I've already given you close to $100 for. I'm looking for sandbox changes that actually bring about some real competitive weapon variety, at the very least. I'm looking for sandbox changes, preferably, that reward me for being aggressive and collapsing a flank instead of trading pulse rifle shots down a long sightline. There's two months left in this game and all you've really shown me is that it takes you way too long to adjust the crucible experience. Please, Bungie, give me a reason to believe next year won't be like the last. There are too many major titles coming out for me to spend another few months waiting on you to get your act together.

| AoT armor ornaments for Ikora's faction armor confirmed? Posted: 07 Jul 2018 10:12 AM PDT Edit: It could also be the Solstice of Heroes armor. But either way, it looks pretty sick! [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Posted: 06 Jul 2018 11:41 PM PDT The opening cutscene for Destiny in my opinion is the most moving piece of cinematography that Bungie has produced for the Destiny Franchise. It's such a simple shot, but has so much power. Rainfall on mars, with the swelling of the soundtrack drawn from the Music of the Spheres, it literally gives me chills. This cutscene takes me back to when I first launched the game on day one. The amount of wonder and mystery contained in this game and the intrigue I had with this story after watching this cutscene was immeasurable. Sometimes I really think I forget what this game is all about, but this cinematic captures it very well. It's about discovery, and bravery in the face of the unknown. What are you guys' thoughts?

| Bungie has something planned for us in game for Bungie Day, they just haven't said what that will be Posted: 07 Jul 2018 07:17 AM PDT Morning! I've seen a couple folks questioning whether there is anything going on for Bungie Day. Just wanted to remind folks that Bungie Day is listed on the July Roadmap they gave us in TWAB 6/28 u/dmg04 also replies "10AM PDT on 7/7" to a user asking about the lack of mentions of Bungie Day in TWAB 7/5. That is found in the comments of TWAB post on this subreddit. Basically at reset today we will find out what they have planned.

| Posted: 07 Jul 2018 01:42 AM PDT TL;DR- Title. Recently I have been playing a lot of gunslinger (my main since day 1 D1) and like many of you on the subreddit it felt like something is missing in D2, from both skill trees especially after getting pooped in mayhem on by every single other super (except tether lol, can't tether me quick enough bitch). The more I looked at the more it made sense that Deadshot + Six-Shooter from Way of the Outlaw, and Crowd-Pleaser + Line 'Em Up from Way of the Sharpshooter should only take up one node. Looking at the perk description it even looks like they were written as one perk, but split into two for some stupid reason. Now not only are we limited to 2 options compared to the dozens in D1, the perks themselves feel watered down. Not even to mention that another whole node is taken up by your melee ability! (Seriously why tf can't these be used in either skill tree, they should be selected just like grenades) This isn't just the case with the gunslinger either, most other subclasses seem to have this same problem. A few other notable ones are Winged Sun + Heat Rises on Attunement of Sky, Vulcan's Rage + Explosive Pyre on Code of the Fireforged, and Vanishing Step + Keen Scout on Way of the Trapper. Combining these and giving us new abilities/strong abilities left behind in D1 would go a long way towards making us feel powerful again. I would rather all of the subclasses get huge buffs and be broken, then a select few/one stick out far and above the others they way they currently do. I see a lot of requests for reduced ability cooldowns (which I'm all for) but I think a lot of the problem of not feeling as powerful as we used to stems from the bigger problem generally weak abilities and strong abilities being watered down or split into different skill trees/perks. Classes and subclasses are what make us feel powerful Guardians, the IKELOS shotgun shouldn't be the only thing making me feel powerful. Even after a years worth of tuning and changes many of the subclasses still feel super diluted and weak. I'm really excited for the supers and abilities coming in Forsaken, but I'm worried that we will see a lot of the same issue with most of the current subclasses.

| Buff tickle fingers *cough cough* Stormcaller’s super Posted: 07 Jul 2018 08:07 AM PDT Seriously even with arc singe you struggle to take down like 3 red bar knights... I'm not asking for Destiny 1 levels of butt fuckery that came from Stormcaller but a significant boost in damage would be nice [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The importance of having weapons like No Land Beyond, The Chaperone, and Bolt Caster. Posted: 07 Jul 2018 10:08 AM PDT Destiny 2 brought forward a different playground for our Guardians to fight in. One where strong, skill based, one hit kill weapons were reduced for balanced gun play and team tactics. Although it brought balance to the game at first, I do think that it sucked the fun out of the game. Why use a tractor cannon or a huckleberry when you can use a MiDA? With the weapon changes coming and the idea of bring fast kill times back, I think it's important to state why weapons like the NLB, Chaperone, and Bolt Caster should come back not for their functional value but their fun value. On paper, guns like the the NLB and Chaperone aren't really good. Their low ammo counts and requirements for pin point precision made them terrible choices for strikes, PVE, and the Raid. However they are a BLAST in PVP. I have fond memories of using those guns in Control and Clash. They were high risk for a HIGH reward and I felt like a lot of D2 Vanilla suffered from this problem. In D1, if you used the Chaperone, and weren't nailing your headshots you were going to lose the gun battle as normal shotguns would have enough spread to take care of you. But! If you could nail a headshot within the effective range you would win the fight. There was a beauty in that, the ability to kill someone but with style. It's the same with the NLB. Odds are you'll lose if you can't nail the first headshot, but that feeling you get when you nail it... it's indescribable. It was fine to have a negative k/d if you were using that gun, because you were having fun using it. Every gun developed doesn't have to work for every scenario. If the NLB dominates in PVP, that might mean it's terrible in PVE and that's okay. Trying to balance guns for every aspect in the game leads to nerfs that drive it into the ground. We SHOULDNT have balancing for PVP and PVE. I guess the ultimate goal of this post is to implore Bungie to continue to embrace the changes they're making in Forsaken . . . and maybe bring back the NLB, Chaperone, and Bolt Caster since we're going back to the old system and they're awesome guns.

| VendorEngrams Rainmeter Skin - Update v1.1 Posted: 07 Jul 2018 09:36 AM PDT Hi everyone, I've recently updated my Rainmeter skin for the VendorEngrams site. If you missed the first post, the skin is basically a small widget that's on your desktop to make the site's data more accessible and provides a streamlined view of the most important information - who's giving out 380 PL gear. What's new in v1.1? Taken from community feedback, version 1.1 includes a UI update, a timer to the next vendor cycle reset, ability to create custom themes if you feel like changing up the look of the skin, banner notifications, and new quick links. Where can I get it? You can download it directly from VendorEngrams through this link: https://vendorengrams.xyz/rainmeter Plans for v1.2+ Currently, I have plans to add individual timers for each vendor's reset, a tab for Xur when he's around, and a non-intrusive in-game overlay/notification system. Thanks to u/Flatlyn for developing VendorEngrams and hosting the file! [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I wish the Slovabomb super could be turned into the shatter nova from D1 Posted: 07 Jul 2018 07:59 AM PDT As someone who still loves voidwalker but really dislikes the Slovabomb I wish they had just made it the shatter node from D1. Three or four smaller less powerful novas that spread out and had the chance to bloom targets. It would be cool to have devour lock focused on healing and a nice vortex nova and have the other tree focus on a smaller add clearing super. Would it break the game? I don't really think so. I just really dislike the slow moving mega bomb. Also buff golden gun cause I've been itching to play some GG but specifically the charge time on trip mines is turds.

| What’s one gun that you will 100% be bringing to 600 Power in Year 2? Posted: 07 Jul 2018 09:16 AM PDT With the new gameinformer staying it will be "difficult" to get your guns to max light from year 1, Which gun will be a no brainer to take all the way through! For me it's Midnight Coup. I can't imagine a better hand cannon unless this roll becomes something common. [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Posted: 07 Jul 2018 12:31 AM PDT It takes to shots of GG to kill someone in Dawnblade super (maybe a precision would do it but those guys are flying around the map like a fly attracted to shit). My super lasts a whole lot less than theirs does, whilst they have incredible mobility and their super also does AoE damage. So what gives? I'm holding a golden gun, it should be like the fucking Golden gun from 007 and OHK practically everything. [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
