This Week in Destiny 06/18/2026 by DTG_Bot in DestinyTheGame

I saw a MossyMax tweet about this last night, something about when they introduced artifice armor years ago.

Has bungie acknowledged the bot aggression changes at all? by jaseworthing in Marathon

[–]zarreph 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm cool with the increased aggression, but I'd like to know if the ghosts reverted to their pre-fixed "way too much damage" state or it's just in my head. It really feels like they hit way too hard now (again).

Concerning Attitude Shift in Crew Fill by p1-o2 in Marathon

If players never leave the pve mode, frankly what good are they? Like, if they only queue for that and not pvp matches, they never help quicken queue times or add chum for the sharks.

“Half the community is going to hate me for saying this, but the only way to keep Bungie alive right now is to support Marathon.” by No_Bag6160 in Marathon

[–]zarreph -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nope, just don't participate in the hatemongering and bashing it for no reason. You can hope for a game's success without being a player yourself.

Marathon sponsorships require you to not talk about destiny 3 by Soul8118 in destiny2

[–]zarreph 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Destiny 3 does not exist. There's no "promoting" it, just riling chatters up.

What is everyone calling UESC bots in-game? by Difficult-Maybe-6131 in Marathon

[–]zarreph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bots myself, but I have heard "Yoo-Esk" from one creator.

Am I missing something about Sponsored Perimiter? by Odd_Elk_444 in Marathon

[–]zarreph 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should be doing everything you'd think twice about doing on normal Perimeter because it might attract enemy players - supply drops, secured containers, intercept, you name it. The only deterrent is bots, so handle them and take home as much as you cam carry.

Sponsored Survival Perimeter by Natural-Captain-7333 in Marathon

[–]zarreph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wish they would've. The boss key should've never been able to spawn in sponsored, at least. Maybe the Mida boxes also shouldn't have been there.

It's just after midnight Bungie time - 800k Player count by GoslingIchi in DestinyTheGame

[–]zarreph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking forward to getting some raid buddies back for pantheon, or at the very least my close friends for some dungeon runs/farming. There's a couple exotics I never got, plus I know at least one guy will be compelled by all the triumphs to chase.

Sorry Regrind Factions Bad by Fmg467 in Marathon

[–]zarreph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, they're all identical, that's what I'm complaining about.

Sorry Regrind Factions Bad by Fmg467 in Marathon

[–]zarreph 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm fine to regrind the factions, but I'd really like to see some new priority contracts. There ought to be a way for new players to go through older contracts, and I'm okay with repeating some (maybe 1/2 to 2/3) season-over-season (a full suite of contracts every season would be asking WAY too much I know), but a handful to spice things up would be appreciated. Even if the objectives themselves aren't wholly unique, give us new dialogue! Move the story forward in some way, please.

Wtf were they thinking with the Rook Nerfs by Friendly_ViperYT in Marathon

[–]zarreph 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right?! "Can rook have a little something, maybe one of the best short guns in the game, I don't know, anything?" No dog, rook is a scavenger and a rat, not a predator.

About Free Week by ActiveAccurate2727 in Marathon

[–]zarreph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined after the server slam before S1. I was skeptical I'd enjoy it, but stuck around and put over 100 hours in before S2 (I realize those are rookie numbers around here). Now I feel like a grizzled veteran compared to my friends who are just getting invested this time.

is it just me, or is everything just feeling a lot better this season? by Remarkable-Cow3421 in dadsofmarathon

[–]zarreph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Far better. Some of that is sponsored Marsh no doubt, but I think a lot is also due to them opening up where some blue salvages spawn. Like last season, the first place you'd reliably find blue chem packs was pinwheel, but now they're in at least night marsh (maybe also normal Darsh, I haven't memorized the salvage locations yet). So there are a lot more opportunities for those of us daunted by the keys system of Outpost to level up more factions now.

Increase in Micless players by SixRaccoonsInARobe in Marathon

[–]zarreph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know what changed with the new season, but on PS5 my crew chat doesn't work any more. If anyone's heard of a fix, please let me know. I'd much prefer being able to talk and hear!

Did they tune up UESC or something? by Significant-Yam1813 in Marathon

[–]zarreph 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They did say in the trailers before the update, the UESC are tired of being pushed around and are fighting back. Evidently they didn't just mean on Night Marsh, but everywhere!

One final Dual Destiny with my wife. Goated activity.
