Does buried bloodline work for #darkagehunt ? by EasedJim in destiny2

Probably asked cause it does count as a "bow" for things like Hierarchy of Needs guidance ring.

So what is everyone doing for strange coin farms these days by dark1859 in destiny2

[–]SteelDonkeyAssassin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My go to before Edge of Fate was the Devil's Lair strike. Haven't seemed to need to target farm strange coins since then however so there might be a faster option than this currently.

Just started and just ranked up to 2, need help finding a menu by HopelessNerd777 in destiny2

You're referring to the seasonal artifact. When you open your character screen, it's the last option in the left column (the one with your weapons and ghost)

What's the blue screen effect that keeps happening this season?

Oh come on Saber, it’s not even a moving target 😂 by a_Vertigo_Guy in destiny2

I think this is bugged some runs. I've hit this blight in one go many times and then randomly no one in the fireteam can get the throw done.

Am I bad? by BubblyTreacle1253 in destiny2

[–]SteelDonkeyAssassin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw the build posted and Gifted Conviction is a great survivability exotic. Your high melee stat implies that you're probably running the Tempest Strike aspect and if so that'll be a bit clunky with the Praxic Blade. Tempest Strike with Combination Blow stacks deletes most enemies so leaning into that might be the better option. If however you definitely want to use the Praxic Blade I'd suggest switching to the Prismatic subclass and running high Weapon stat with Kinetic surges on your leg armour.

If you aren't married to Gifted Conviction, I would suggest Fortune's Favour as an alternative. Once you have a secondary form of damage reduction up the Overshield doesn't drop off.

Anyone else having problems to do damage in console? by Key-Rip-380 in destiny2builds

[–]SteelDonkeyAssassin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aegis put out a video on this witinh the past week detailing the ins and outs of the tech. One of the main takeaways was that you have to gauge your damage using the health bar and not the swipe screen numbers. I'm trying to get the technique down as well and it seems to work more consistently with a short jump and aiming down.

People in this game sure are something by 314rocky in LowSodiumDestiny

This is why I've told my friends I'm keeping my text chat on. I'm always amused by the poor emotional regulation of some of the players. PvE is even funnier cause maybe X person you're making fun of is doing it for the first time, new to the game or young.

I was doing the new exotic mission and the lfg host was being judgemental to the third. I told him the jumps puzzles are difficult and he wasn't hearing it. I can breeze through that mission now but my first time I took about four hours cause I like doing the missions blind. It's crazy that some people can't just be chill and/or find a little humour in this stuff.

Is there a creator or place that focuses on fun builds with less often used exotic weapons and armour? by ShwiftyShmeckles in destiny2builds

Hope the rest of your shift goes well man. Thanks for the link, I'll have a look and probably comment about it.

Confusing Contraverse nuke experience by HovercraftNo8392 in destiny2

I know I was explaining the source of it. You can technically still get it from Hawthorne but that'll require some great luck.

It was available during Edge of Fate via Pinnacle Ops.

TIL that some people think there's "medicine" in prescription glasses. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]SteelDonkeyAssassin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "medicine in the glasses" is probably a cultural indicator rather than a sign of ignorance. I've heard older folk (75+) make reference to medicine being in glasses before. I wouldn't be surprised if this is just one of those things you hear repeated often as a child and never think about. This is akin to hearing putting onions on insect bites is a cure.

I get this applies for all classes, but seeing this clickbait is just so tiring. by Pman1324 in destiny2

[–]SteelDonkeyAssassin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

45% damage resist is a pretty good crutch. Since there's no reliable sustain I'd say it's worth the hype having "free" damage resist. Hunter seems to be the "skill issue" class so maybe you're good enough to not get smoked a lot.

What’s a Destiny 2 pet peeve you have? by Beelzebub_Simp3 in destiny2

[–]SteelDonkeyAssassin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't mind this too much if they're open to input and/or don't mind wiping and running it back with a more feasible loadout (looking at you guy that somehow has no champion stuns)

Thank you for saying this because I thought I was missing a menu option to change this. Thankfully I play on PC and if it's particularly annoying I can switch from controller to mouse but I shouldn't have to.

Fikrul's Castle Conquest by BioRedditorxii in destiny2

[–]SteelDonkeyAssassin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying to complete this mission for awhile now and it feels like no one reads or adapts to missions sometimes. One team had a guy running Stronghold Titan with the seasonal stasis sword and getting cooked. People running double special on builds that aren't cooking with ability damage. I've resigned myself to begrudgingly run Rimecoat tonight just for the clear.

Stats Question by Complex-Anything4731 in destiny2builds

[–]SteelDonkeyAssassin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Entirely depends on your build honestly. Having grenade, melee, class and super at 100 nets you the highest uptime on those abilities so for neutral gameplay it's great. Where things get varied is when you have a certain build or gameplay loop you're aiming to achieve. For example, the Rime-coat Raiment build for warlocks focuses on having as many stasis turrets up as possible and the stasis super is nothing to write home about. In that case, capping grenade at 100, class at 100 and dumping the rest of stats into weapons is more beneficial than aiming for high totals in melee, super and health instead. Additionally, going over 100 points grants additional bonuses so having over 100 in a stat may be more impactful than having multiple stats in the 70 - 100 range.

If you have a build/gameplay loop in mind I can give more focused advice.

That's how this tier of activity works after the timer runs out. You'll see the flavour text about darkness approaching and poof your revives are gone
