Majere posted:There's a whole lot of lore about the Gardener and the Winnower. Assumed to be immutable forces beyond comprehension and our universe. Most likely characterizations of entropy, and the origins of the Vex. I don't know if it's ever specifically stated that the Traveler IS the Gardener or an agent/physical manifestation there of. And now we have the Witness who may or may not be the Winnower from the lore or another actor carrying out the goal of total entropy. Has it ever been directly stated that the Darkness caused the Eliksni Whirlwind? Because I'm partial to the idea (with nothing to back it up), that they caused it themselves after the Traveler left. Feels like it would make their story more unique. Not just another civilization wrecked by the Darkness/Hive/whatever, but cursed by their own hubris.

Taken King-era lore strongly implies the Traveler left the Fallen because Oryx attacked

filmcynic posted:I've been trying to keep focused crafting on the back burner and am just gathering materials/swapping grindable weapons until the next few war table upgrades open up. The unlock that guarantees a red border drop on the first engram of each week should help things a bit. FWIW focusing engrams to specific weapons at the table seems to give a lot of deepsight resonance weapons, even without the guarantee upgrade. Evilgm posted:I need 2000 Neutral Elements to upgrade one perk The element perk caps seem strangely low, and the need for the considerably-more-rare Ascendant Alloys to use them renders them kinda superfluous. I'm not thrilled at having to grind 15-20 minute missions over and over just for a chance at a single Alloy, especially when there's so much other stuff to get done.

They've had a lot of work put in for the system where they can turn off certain mods and perks, I'm not that surprised it's happened again at short notice. Whereas something like Rahool not selling alloys on the second week of a new system in place is a one-off kind of thing and probably needs more specific QA and procedures in place Spaghetti code is putting it mildly, wasn't there a recent bug where a very specific item wasn't working for players who didn't own a very specific season from like Shadowkeep

There's also the thing where all vendor armour has identical minimum rolls, or Glaives being a huge mess of sometimes working perks and interactions. It's fascinating seeing what breaks when and why and how. A long time ago there was a Steam game that had some kind of networking issue that no one could figure out until a Valve employee randomly came across the exact thing happening and was able to fix the problem exactly and they wrote an article about the whole thing. I would love for Bungie to release something like that for the weird problems that pop up in game.

They do that every so often, they wrote a big technical breakdown of the destiny 1 bug where you would lose heavy ammo on respawn, and of the time a few years ago when a patch broke the backend so badly they had to rollback twice e: also the crucible bounty thing

Anyone know if Titan volatile does more damage than other classes? I was reading the effects that each class is tailored for are more effective, like hunters giving 30% weaken instead of 15%.

All vendors in the entire game are only offering collections/minimum stat rolls. Bungie is currently investigating if this is intentional or a bug

Tbh I don’t think Ikora’s bad exotic rolls are a bug. All the Shadowkeep exotics I got from her were just as bad.

I still believe that exotics you are definitely guaranteed to get as part of mission progression have intentionally bad stats, they're a taste of exoticness without devaluing future drops of that exotics Xur is supposed to be random, though, if he gives out crap all week every week that's almost certainly unintentional

DancingShade posted:I can't wait for the big reveal at the end of year where the traveller turns out to just be a oversized ghost shell with a fog machine and some concert lights. Lightfall? More like, uh, charade falls! Yeah. Also I actually appreciate the grind on the weapons. Are they slow to level? Yeah. I think that's the point. If I could grind out a weapon max level for all perks etc in an hour or two then why even lock anything behind. I was under the impression that you start with some weapons and by the time you're a decent way in the season they'll feel like home. My syncopation is at that stage. Not perfect, but vibing more and more. I also play a lot more casually, so I guess the pace makes more sense for that? I also hope there are weapons that are never craftable and are always random rolls. I think that'd be a good blend.

What do you folks think will be better for Day 1 Disciple? I’m waffling pretty hard for my Warlock! I want to bring my shiny new Volatile Flow void build for maximum explosions and UBER-DPS, but my concern is that making things explode won’t be as useful as just freezing all the adds 100% of the time using my Osiomancy Stasis build. Not opposed to swapping my loadout around one way or the other, but I’m just assuming that for things like puzzle solving and discovering callouts well want more crowd control and add clear than BIG DEEPS

I'm really hoping Vow will lean more towards Kingsfall or WoTM (simple but hard to execute) than Leviathan or Last Wish (symbols and gimmicks everywhere) Destiny's raids are best when it's big monsters with straight forward, tight execution checks. It's a shame Bungie is straying from that more and more

I don't know, for Deep Stone Crypt the worst encounter is the Atraks straightforward execution check while the best encounter is the next one, Descent, with the crazy multi mechanics.

Yeah Last Wish is incredibly popular and widely regarded as the best content in Destiny 2, or at least it was before Legendary Witch Queen campaign. Personally I think both are good and a perfect raid would be a 50/50 split down the middle between those kinds of mechanics, not all one or the other like Last Wish or Scourge.

Stasis Hunter will be slept on. Everybody is talking doing damage when the thing that will save runs is the damage reduction. Stasis in general is being slept on.

Finally got a Tarnation with a 'this pattern can be unlocked'! I finish it, no pattern. I need to do a certain amount of resonance clears before I can actually make one. Same with the new Cabal pulse and grenade launcher. This system sucks. Also, the raid race starts at 3 AM over here, so best of luck to all the goon runners! If you win, get a pic with your shiny new belt. Preferably with a pet.

If you go to the triumphs tab (one page to the left of your character screen) you can click the patterns tab and it'll tell you what guns you can craft as well as how many resonance extractions you need before you have their pattern Most (if not all?) guns need 2 extractions

Couching it behind even more steps beyond that is dumb. Tarnation takes 2, other guns can take up to 5. It wouldn't surprise me if this gets a rework in the coming weeks like they did with transmog.
