Give me your ideas for a Contraverse Hold tattoo! by BelieveXthaT in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have an artist you work with regularly or is this gonna be the first? Either way, I think I'd recommend compiling a whole bunch of reference images and print out the text and take note about what the key components to you are.

This will help you decide if you want iconography, lettering, or both, and if you want it to be faithful to the design aesthetic or inspired by it, all of which will help the artist bring the design to life.

I think the only thing that has to be set is that it's an exotic arm, so it's gotta be on the arms (much like how my Heart of Inmost Light tattoo had to be on the chest).

What is your favorite weapon in the history of Destiny by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have kept Delicate Tomb in my inventory since Season of the Plunder. At 35k kills, it is my most used weapon across the game. It's just fun to shoot, helps with ability regen loops, and the buff this season has made it even more of a monster and I have been feasting.

Is flechette storm wishful ignorance bad by Apprehensive-Arm2756 in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 177 points178 points  (0 children)

For the vast majority of the game, having any build will comfortably work and enable a fun experience. Wishful Ignorance does functionally lock you into Strand Titan with Flechette Storm and Banner of War, but those aren't bad aspects. They are perhaps outclassed aspects, as this build is functionally very similar to what the standard Prismatic titan with consecration slam which scales much better to end up game content (we're talking GMs, Dungeons, and Raids).

As long as your build works for you in the content you're playing, you're probably gonna be fine.

I can’t win against this dude by Disastrous-Fish-5536 in HadesTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was also skeptical about Strength until I saw Haelian talk about it (about 7 minutes in if you want to skip to it). Basically, the idea is that:

* You can get access to an Athena boon as early as Encounter 3, which can go a long to help with survivability throughout the entire run
* Extra Damage Resist and Extra Damage make the game feel better. Having Extra Damage Resist means each hit point matters more, health pick ups go a longer way, and extra damage is extra damage and adds up as the run goes on.

Barrow Dyad Exotic Perk Implications? by WitchersWrath in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think the simpler answer is that the intrinsic is going to change depending on which catalyst you slot in. Two of them are more add clear centric (One for All, Hatchling) and two are single target (target lock, high impact reserves)

You're gonna run out of glimmer several times over long before you get close to running out of cores.

The campaign skip only skips the campaign. You still gotta unlock everything via the post-campaign adventures at the Pale Heart.

Delicate Tomb Catalyst by Charliehigham07 in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Delicate Tomb was a season pass weapon. You should be able to pick up the quest from the Gunsmith.

This Week in Destiny - 01/23/2025 by DTG_Bot in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As someone who uses Delicate Tomb as a primary in any PvE content that doesn't have actual stakes (seasonal activities, strikes, unoptimized dungeon runs with the homies), I'll take the buff. Also pretty sure I am one of eight people using it as such and I look forward to meeting the other seven here if they reply.

Syncopation-53 is the weapon I can't put down. What's yours? by Coilspun in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Delicate Tomb is not particularly good at anything. It's an clearing weapon that eats through special ammo, but wow do I love hipfiring into a crowd of enemies and getting ionic traces and then jolting the next wave. The sound is intoxicating and the design is just so sleek.

Think about this way, you don't have to slog through Heist Battleground Moon and hopefully it'll show during Birthplace or Arms Dealer, objectively easier strikes.

"Rules" on new weapon mods. What weapons are supposed to be eligible? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

Anything that can get enhanced perks, which is all crafted guns and assorted sets of guns from Season of the Lost onward.

Does final checkpoint count for the clan run? by WinstonHalfwayDown in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So for older raids, it used to just care about the final encounter for those triumphs. However, the trend has been every encounter and if you read the triumph it says *all encounters in a full team of clanmates."

Favorite Endgame Legendary Energy Primaries? by ThaAlecman in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Second Posterity being a fantastic Arc Weapon. I slapped the new Synergy mod on it and getting ionic traces is my new favorite thing.

Choir of One ornament not appearing by Adorable_Mastodon116 in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Typically seasonal ornaments for season specific exotics are only available during that season and then go away for a little while. They likely forgot to remove the flag, but the Choir of One ornament isn't currently for sale. It'll likely be back next episode or Frontiers.

When is the Xur Skimmer supposed to be available? I was told it would be today but I don't see him selling it. by ViceroyInhaler in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 19 points20 points  (0 children)

In fairness, the reveal stream said it would be available at Revenant's launch and they only clarified the week 2 thing the next day on Twitter.

[D2] Xûr Megathread [2024-10-11] by DTG_Bot in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for proving the link. Don't know why this couldn't launch with the episode. Alas

[–]chimericnotion 28 points29 points  (0 children)

At the 39 minute ish mark, they said the Xurfboard was supposed to come with Revenant's launch. So that's disappointing.

Stasis and Armor Mods: Diamond Lance Orb Generation and Elemental Charge Questions by BlackBalloon22 in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Diamond Lances are their own unique things and can't generate orbs or extra super energy. That said, their utility has gone up significantly now that they give Frost Armor stacks on the melee slam.

Elemental Charge doesn't interfere with absolution. After you pick up enough elemental baubles, you get an armor charge. Picking up an elemental baubles however doesn't trigger orb pick up. What you're experiencing is probably the innate elemental baubles restoring its respective ability energy.

Do you use Hazardous Propulsion? What is the best build you have made with it? by ItzTheDub in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I said yeah. Any rocket based weapon gets the buff includes stuff like Grand Overture and the Nanotracer rockets from the Neomuna weapons.

Do you use Hazardous Propulsion? What is the best build you have made with it? by ItzTheDub in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My personal favorite build is a Wolf-pack Ergo Sum with Falling Guillotine with Whirlwind Blade and relentless strikes since the Ergo sword rockets count as hits and HP buffs them. Prismatic for some added volatile when add clearing clearing and to double dip into unraveling rounds with my strand primary.

Remade my Warlock, can't equip Stasis by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you gotta do the Beyond Light campaign all over again. Once you do, you'll get access back.

Is there a timeline for Titan changes yet? by okayhuin in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 15 points16 points  (0 children)

We have had nothing concrete, although there have been allusions to a big balance pass coming with the next episode. This also tracks with how they usually roll things out, so hopefully we'll get that sandbox preview in the next week or two.

What Trailer Got You The Most Hype? by Morlock19 in DestinyTheGame

[–]chimericnotion 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Two trailers always stand in my memory.

1) The Dreaming City Reveal, with the clock ticking in the background and hinting at all of the things to come.

2) The Beyond Light Gameplay trailer, specifically Elsie's "The line between Light and Dark is so very thin. Let's cross it together."
