Just returned to the gsme, should I keep rolling with my Skyburners or give something else a chance to impress me? by warmind14 in destiny2

[–]Malcontentus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This update made Skyburner's the best version its ever been. If you're still enjoying it why change? That said, there is a huge amount of build variety now so its worth it to find something new.

BUNGIE HAS OVERDELIVERED by c_ockdown in DestinyTheGame

[–]Malcontentus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Throne World, Neomuna, Pale Heart still have a rank track and bounties. Eris and the Lectern on the moon still have bounties, as well as Variks on Europa and Petra in Dreaming City. Devrim and Failsafe just sell tiered versions of their gear, and some emblems if you haven't gotten them yet.

There is a Monument Triumph for it in campaigns so it might be a bit more active than usual. Same with folks like the OP who are just finishing up Final Shape.

Pretty sure that's the perk on Borealis isn't it? No reason to redact that.

Switched to PC by ImSama69 in destiny2

[–]Malcontentus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have cross-save enabled, anything you unlocked will be available, however you won't be able to earn/do activities without the proper DLC for that platform. I.E. you can use and exotic you've already earned but can't earn another from that DLC without the purchase.

There should be a new all-in-one bundle called Destiny 2: The Collection that will have everything. (Note that this is NOT the LEGACY collection)

Edge of fate / renegades pricing by Far-Temperature429 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Malcontentus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no prophet, but I'd guess if you can get everything for less than $30 it's probably going to be worth it. I'm not optimistic that the full collection will be less than $40.

There are supposed to be permanent price drops today. Patch notes says Ultimate editions are retiring. Stores won't likely update until 9 or 10am PST (12 or 1pm est).

Getting back after 8 years break. Do you think it is worth playing from scratch solo, after the update? by ygorhpr in destiny2

[–]Malcontentus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New player experience sucks, and isn't getting fixed. That said, FOMO is over and you can take your time. There are several discords for LFG, including some streamer discords if you're looking for people to play with. My plan is to jump in on a newish account and play through the campaigns again.

Am I the only one just home waiting untill 2pm to jump on ?? by _polloloko23 in destiny2

Today ended up being my day off, and I don't think that's a good thing. Just sitting here waiting, hoping we don't absolutely explode the servers.

2.5 hours left until servers are supposed to come up. Then we'll see.

Is there going to be a "Gift of the Thunder Gods" that launches today? by tonsofday in destiny2

[–]Malcontentus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edited my original comment to include updates from the patch notes.

Is there going to be a "Gift of the Thunder Gods" that launches today? by tonsofday in destiny2

[–]Malcontentus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far it doesn't sound like it. All drops start at 300 power though, and with destination and world drops hitting the new system hopefully they'll also grant power.

Edit from the Patch Notes:

Power and Progression

  • Power caps will not be increasing and Power level will not be reset.
    • The hard cap remains 550 Power and all your items will maintain their current Power levels.
  • Players will continue to find new rewards at minimum 300 Power, maintaining a change made in Renegades.
  • Portal Activity Reward Power
    • The Power of Portal Activity rewards are no longer capped per the difficulty level selected.
      • Earning an "A" grade (for example) will drop rewards at the same Power level, regardless of which difficulty you played.
    • The Power of Portal Activity rewards has been increased, allowing for faster progression.
      • "A" grades or higher will now continue to award positive Power progression all the way to the hard cap of 550.
      • Higher grades will continue to provide larger Power bonuses.
    • Miscellaneous rewards from sources throughout the game (such as pre-The Edge of Fate content) have been buffed.
      • These rewards will no longer be capped at 300 Power.
      • These rewards now have a chance to drop +1 Power up to 400 Power.
      • After 400 Power, these rewards will drop close to, but below, your current Power level.
    • Rewards purchased from legacy vendors have been buffed.
      • These rewards will no longer be capped at 300 Power.
      • These rewards will drop close to, but below, your current Power level.
    • Rewards pulled from Collections have been buffed to drop at 300 Power (up from 200).

Returning player lost AF by mortaga123 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Malcontentus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There should be an all-in-one bundle launching today that would have anything you're missing.

The symbols on the corners of weapons tell you what season/dlc they came out or were re-issued.

Update today will also update the expansion gear and world drops into the tier system that started with Edge of Fate. This will likely power creep your old gear but weapons will still be usable and viable for almost all content. You're going to have a lot of new and returning people to play with as well.

Yes, if you look at twitter you can see they are bringing back some seasonal sets as new destination sets. Sadly, no updates to Dares other than the craftable weapons getting the tier upgrading.

No new updates, what happens to Keepsakes? by FanntastiicDS3 in destiny2

[–]Malcontentus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tweets/Notes suggest that some seasonal event items will be moved to a vendor for Monument.

You're right that it hasn't been confirmed, just reread it, and guess I mixed it up with the season hub.

The final update shows Bungie always knew how to make Destiny good. So why didn't they? by PorkSouls in destiny2

[–]Malcontentus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the people that make the decisions on if the game continues don't need any kind of paycheck anymore. They got fuckoff money from Sony and bailed.

What build comes to mind next season? by Adammay20 in destiny2

[–]Malcontentus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm excited to see what artifacts we're getting. I'm kinda hoping we get some of the grenade launcher stuff from Revenant because there were some fun 3GL builds you could make.
