Then I drank a bunch of coffee and played as best as I could. It is, although I don't know if it activated Swashbuckler x5 at the time of release. I think it should?

They went through a couple of cycles of waffling on whether grapple slam counted as a melee and what perks it should or should not activate. There was probably a period during which it didn't for a while

Don't buy the random repeatable bounties from Party Shaxx They're bugged. Buying one will put a second bounty in your Pursuits that you can't see in game, and it takes up 1x Pursuit slot and also takes up 1x Party Shaxx bounty slot. If you keep buying these, eventually it will be completely impossible to pick up any bounties from him because you are "full" of these ghost bounties The ghost bounties never expire. You can see them in DIM, but they don't always appear to be completable. Some just say "Additional Objective"

Dumb question but can you have a single legendary stasis rocket give you both anti overload and barrier from the artifact? I know when guns have intrinsic anti champion perks they can't double dip but I can't find anything about a regular gun using two. I assume the overload perk overwrites the unraveling round stasis perk.

Because no, a Strand Rocket with Unraveling Rounds and Anti-Overload will not preform double duty, I believe. There's some stuff you can do with status effects like Chill Clip, I think, though.

I don't think hardly annnyone is actually doing those raids! King's Fall just has a few checkpoints with infinite Taken & rally flag so people are cranking out their Brave Quests But actually I agree with your question overall. Why tf IS king's fall so popular! I do not enjoy it very much at all in terms of encounters, mechanics, cosmetics, or guns

King's Fall is the current farmable raid on the rotator, so that might be skewing things a bit. Haven't had a chance to try Onslaught myself yet, but I've watched a few streams, and Datto lost the race to first Legend completion because it dropped a Tormentor right next to the ADU on wave 49 for him, lol.

https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/twid-04-11-2024 -The Pantheon: A gauntlet of tweaked raid bosses. With each boss kill your power handicap gets higher and the modifiers change*. 4 bosses at launch, with 1 more round added per week until it caps at 8. Title:  Godslayer -HUD change details: there are pictures, but basically they split out critical buffs and debuffs that you need to advance the encounter to top center screen and always-on weapon perks to atop the super bar. Everything else like temporary combat modifiers stays where it was, and there's a new explicit priority system so what buffs can push other buffs offscreen should be more predictable. The right-side buff scroll from the TFS video has been cut and won't appear there at launch -Incoming weapon rotation changes: Trials loses unexpected resurgence, cataphract, the messenger, igneous hammer. Nightfall loses braytech osprey, loaded question. IB loses jorum's claw, bite of the fox, pressurized precision, swarm of the raven *rereading this, it may mean that the power handicap is linked to the weekly reset and will permanently increased with each reset while pantheon is live haveblue fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Apr 11, 2024 |

With Onslaught, is the enemy random, or fixed per map? I've only done a few and am not sure on a few things. I know I've fought Fallen on Midtown, Fallen on Vostok, and Hive on Mothyards. As far as I can remember, it's the same faction from wave 1 to wave 50, but not sure if you might randomly get different ones each activity launch Also I have killed 2 of 3 bosses on the triumph that says "Boss Rotates Weekly" so things seem a bit odd in general. Is the boss fixed for each of the 3 maps? Maybe the original plan was for only 1x Onslaught map to be released each week

You can get Hive on Midtown too I'm really surprised they launched with all 3 available at once, I'm not sure what's supposed to inform your choice of arena if you aren't in a premade with an agreed-upon goal

The spoiler below is all of the information we have on Pantheon So if you click on the spoiler you'll see all of the information on Pantheon, that we have Don't click on it if that is the kind of thing you don't want to see or know 4 Different selectable modes/difficulties: The Pantheon: Atraks Sovereign (First 4 Bosses, +5 Power) The Pantheon: Oryx Exalted (First 5 Bosses, +10 Power) The Pantheon: Rhulk Indomitable (First 6 Bosses, +15 Power) The Pantheon: Nezarec Sublime (All 8 Bosses, +20 Power/Contest Mode) 8 Raid bosses in order: Golgoroth (KF 3rd) Caretaker (VotD 2nd) Zo'aurc (RoN 3rd) Atraks-1 (DSC 2nd) Oryx (KF 5th) Rhulk (VotD 4th) Riven (LW 5th) Nezarec (RoN 4th) It is non matchmade but you are going to be able to use fireteam finder to find a group. It seems like there may also be new or different mechanics and challenges for the encounters. All 4 Pantheon modes have a unique emblem that will drop from the triumph after your first completion. (Pictured Below) All 4 modes have 10% increased Void, Solar, Arc, Stasis and strand weapon damage modifiers. All modes also have a modifier called 'Shot Caller' 'Landing multiple precision hits with a Primary ammo weapon empowers Special and Heavy ammo weapons. Reduces incoming damage while active.' The Pantheon seal is called Godslayer and has 10 triumphs: 4x Complete each Pantheon mode 4x Complete each Pantheon mode with a high score 1x Earn points across all encounters in The Pantheon. (1,500,000) 1x Earn points across all encounters in The Pantheon. (3,000,000) The 4 normal completion triumphs drop their respective emblem and 30 spoils each. The high score and points triumphs drop adept versions of raid weapons, the weapons include: Smite of Merain (Harrowed) Qullim's Terminus (Harrowed) Insidious (Adept) Acasia's Dejection (Adept) Zaouli's Bane (Harrowed) Rufus's Fury (Adept) The Pantheon rules are as follows: • Complete raid encounters in succession. Activate the transmat banner after completing an encounter to progress to the next arena. • Each encounter has a bonus timer. You earn additional points while the timer is active. Finish the encounter before the timer runs out for additional score. • Completing encounters, and completing encounters with a high score, grant rewards. Remaining rewards for The Pantheon are tracked on the Triumphs page. • Arcite 99-40 is waiting at the end of The Pantheon for the Guardians who have completed the "Divine Weaponry" quests.

Yea I probably wasn't gonna go that hard at the boss rush anyway but 8 contest mode bosses in a row is definitely not happening. Maybe once if I get carried by goons but I doubt I'd do it enough to get the cool title. Do wonder if they mean the raid exotics when they say exotic weapons though.

8 in a row including almost all of the bosses that have been super hard on Day 1/Contest Mode. Getting full rewards is going to require finishing it quickly, too, and I dunno about you guys but our raids are usually about 30 minutes of Encounters and 45 minutes of BRB Switching Loadouts & using the can. You won't be switching characters either so it'll be a bit strange to come up with a roster & 7 saved Loadouts to nail those particular bosses ChaosReaper posted:Yea I probably wasn't gonna go that hard at the boss rush anyway but 8 contest mode bosses in a row is definitely not happening.

The answer to your question is in the image below.  Your pick of those in exchange for clearing it once on any difficulty, including the easy mode 4 bosses at +5 power

Now that is actually a really cool idea But I'm struggling to imagine how you assemble a group for that outside the most absolute diehard Destiny nerds that are capable of doing them all back to back correctly Depending on how they set it up with checkpoints and such, it could be a very useful mode for training and learning

The weekly release/4 difficulty levels will help a lot. Doing Easy Pantheon will get you nice and familiar with 4 of the 8, and then you're just adding in one new boss fight at a time with a slightly higher power delta (2 new bosses for the final difficulty) No checkpoints. It's a Timed activity and you get a reduced score multiplier the longer it takes. Of the 10 Triumphs associated with the new Seal/Title, 4 of them are "do each difficulty" and 4 of them are "do each difficulty, Fast"

I think the idea is that they've been dinking around abducting people for Reasons since season of defiance, but now that they know we have a way into the traveler they're redoubling their efforts to be a dick on earth to distract us. Kinda flimsy but eh, the rest of the justification for the past year of seasonal story has been equally flimsy

We won season of defiance by blowing up the prison ship, which I guess was enough of a setback to take the pressure off. But yeah, onslaught is a direct assault against what’s nominally city territory (the cosmodrome and felwinter peak are supposed to be pretty nearby)
