Having previously defeated Argos with a three person fireteam mere days after the raid lair had opened, it appears the members of Clan Redeem are determined to hold on to their place as the best in the business and complete yet another feat no other fireteam had accomplished. The impressive display can be seen in the video below. While it was all but inevitable that a 2-man run was coming, it was still not easy to achieve....
The good news is that Bungie has already increased the amount of XP that a daily Destiny 2 clan bounty contributes but there emerged a bigger problem once clans started hitting rank 4. As it turns out, the raid challenges were also tied to a clan bounty and only clans at rank 4 or higher could pick them up for a chance at extra loot. Thankfully, that system is changing with Season 5....
For those unfamiliar, pinnacle weapons in Destiny 2 are Legendary weapons with unique perks that are attached to specific quests and demand commitment to playing certain activities and achieving various levels of mastery in order to obtain. Just one step down from exotics, pinnacle weapons can be unique, powerful, and a trophy of achievement. The first pinnacle weapon added to Destiny 2 was Redrix’s Claymore as part of the Warmind expansion, which required players to reach the Fabled rank in the Competitive playlist in PvP....
Before diving into those, there’s a few things Destiny 2 players will want to know about this Season Pass. Purchasing the Shadowkeep expansion unlocks the full version, but for those who just want access to the season pass, it can be bought on its own for 1,000 Silver. It’s leveled up by earning XP, with this progress working account-wide across characters, and it will even work across platforms for those who utilize Cross-Save....
Having said that there are some situations where only pure armor sets are allowed and a handful of players will jump into the fray with a pure set just for aesthetic purposes. Some of the sets are useful and pleasing to the eye, while others are just an abomination that probably shouldn’t even be worn in PVE, let alone PVP. 10 Best: Menagerie The Menagerie set is actually fairly decent in PVP situations, though it’s certainly not the strongest....
Blast Furnace Blast Furnace is a 4-burst pulse rifle, and it has turned out to be one of the most powerful pulse rifles in Destiny 2. It can be especially deadly in PvP where the right roll can lead to the ability to two-burst an opposing Guardian—and it doesn’t even require every shot landing on the head. The perfect roll for Blast Furnace is one that has: Feeding Frenzy Kill Clip...
One of the best things about the glaive is that it’s conceived as a versatile weapon, and whether this translates into the gameplay loop depends on the players’ actions and preferred combinations. However, Destiny 2’s The Witch Queen introduces the investigation board, which allows players to complete several Resonance missions that eventually unlock the Exotic quest to get a class-specific glaive. The problem with the Exotic glaives is they are incredibly hard to obtain because of how RNG-dependant one of the Resonance missions is, and ultimately these weapons also fail to deliver....
RELATED: Destiny 2: How To Get Mod Components (2021) The Jade Rabbit Catalyst improves the weapon’s abilities a little, but some players may find the changes a bit lackluster. Especially considering the work needed to find and obtain The Jade Rabbit Catalyst. Updated On November 3, 2021 by Ben Baker: The Destiny 2 Jade Rabbit Catalyst has had a bit of a rough patch. For a while, its perk was broken and not working at all, and even after the fix, it seems to be underperforming when compared to its intent....
The Dawning arrives mid December every year, decorating the social spaces, presenting limited time challenges and lots of cosmetics to chase. This year is similar to the last as the Dawning’s main attraction is once again baking treats for Destiny 2’s various characters and delivering them for rewards.

Destiny 2 weapons are separated into three categories: Kinetic, Energy, and Power. Kinetic weapons shoot standard bullets and are best used against enemies with downed shields. Energy weapons, meanwhile, are useful for taking down shields in the first place. And finally, Power weapons are things like rocket launchers that use rare ammo and tend to deal the most damage overall. The Destiny 2 community has collected data on all of the weapons in the game to determine the best DPS weapons for each category....
Alongside the Solar 3.0 subclass overhauls, players are still discovering optimal builds and loadouts, especially when attempting to synergize with certain exotics. Unfortunately for Hunters, controversy erupted earlier this month when Bungie made a change to the Caliban’s Hand Exotic gauntlets text description, rather than changing the item’s behavior to match the original description like many fans were hoping. RELATED: What We Hope to See Out of Destiny 2’s Arc 3....
In addition to new story components coming to light, Bungie announced changes coming to the Nightfall reward cycle next month. Players wanting to take part in the returning Grandmaster nightfalls will need to be at least 1335 power, but the rewards are getting expanded. Not only are Plug One.1, Hung Jury, and Uzume RR4 getting adept versions but the weapon rotation is also adding in The Palindrome, Shadow Price, and The S....
The Telesto Twitter takeover event also led many to believe it was the start of a new Community Event in Destiny 2, something which had been rumored for a few weeks. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like that may be happening after all as Bungie ultimately showed off a new shirt and emblem players can pick up. Not only that, this week’s blog post also seemed to deconfirm any secrets or puzzles to be found....
While the game may be entering a small void until the 30th Anniversary celebration and Dawning content arrives in December, that doesn’t mean things won’t constantly be changing. This week, Bungie outlined plans to continue making improvements to the high-end PvP weekend mode, Trials of Osiris. Part of those plans involve removing the Flawless matchmaking pool completely, instead replacing it with a smarter matchmaking system that creates matches based on current card wins as well as overall wins for that weekend....
Xur Location This week, Destiny 2 players can find Xur on the planet Nessus, in the Watcher’s Grave region. However, though many thought it would be hard to find Xur given that he could hide on four patrol areas, Bungie has eliminated that hunt this time around. Instead Xur shows up on the map as an icon, and player’s can target him by tracking his objective. For what it’s worth, Xur is hiding up in a tree, which is a cool spot....
The perfect blend of PVE and PVP is offered in Gambit, a game mode that launched alongside Forsaken, where players have to defeat waves of enemies and either invade the opposing Guardians’ battlefield or fend off invaders. Gambit is full of close calls, where depositing Motes before an invader gets to score a kill is all about timing, and so is rapidly defeating Blockers to allow allies to summon the Primeval....
An animation glitch tied to relics is the culprit, though this exploit doesn’t appear to work on every relic in Destiny 2, meaning that it might be difficult for some players to be able to activate the glitch during some activities like Crucible. That being said, it would appear that Titans specifically have a way of activating the glitch at any time, and can even provide infinite ammo to the rest of their fireteam....
During Geoff Keighley’s E3 2017 livestream, Destiny 2 director Luke Smith confirmed that the game will only run at 30 FPS on the upcoming Microsoft console. The confirmation comes just weeks after developer Bungie confirmed that Sony’s own improved games console, the PS4 Pro, isn’t powerful enough to run Destiny 2 at 60 FPS. The comments about the PS4 Pro prompted Microsoft to take a dig at Sony, seemingly accusing its competitor of forcing the Destiny 2 developer to limit the amount of frames per second its game offers....
Guardians of Destiny 2 have faced the Vex and their simulations before, so on the surface, another Vex simulation shouldn’t be that bad, right? Well, this Vex simulation may not be like the others and may just pose a much larger threat than Guardians are expecting. This article includes MAJOR SPOILERS for Destiny 2, Season of the Splicer, and the Seasonal Narrative around the Endless Night. RELATED: Destiny 2’s Season of the Splicer And The Story So Far...
RELATED: Destiny 2’s Duality Dungeon Farm System Resembles Lost Sectors What is the God Roll for Firefright? Firefright is a 450 RPM Kinetic Auto Rifle. Auto rifles haven’t had the best history in terms of being good weapons for both PvE and PvP alike. Firefright’s 450 RPM doesn’t help it out much either in terms of it being on the slower rates of fire. That being said, it can roll with some pretty interesting perks....
