Destiny 2: How to Get Reissued Dreaming City Gear

Destiny 2: How to Get Reissued Dreaming City Gear

navagio-navagio-beach-beach-sea-ocean-holiday-summer-greece-island-thumbnail.jpgSquare Enix finally delivered its long-awaited first part of Final Fantasy VII Remake earlier this year. While fans anxiously await details on what’s next, there’s plenty of reason to revisit the game on PS5, now with less waiting time. Booting up the game and loading up a save file is much faster than on PS4, but we've noticed something weird with Final Fantasy VII Remake on both PS4 and PS5 compared to all other games we rested. For some reason, our testing found that it takes longer to load into a save file than it does to boot up the game. We’re not sure this is, but at least both loads are still an improvement over PS4.

It was tough and inconvenient, but it also made for fun and interesting adventures. The game routinely asked players to seek out unmarked locations on foot, locations often far away from the nearest city. If one got there and found themselves outmatched, they only had two options: turn around and walk all the way back or get creative with what was on hand. Many a cool story comes about in such circumstances.

Inside the Shattered Throne dungeon are encounters that will drop a random piece of Dreaming City gear after the first completion each week per character. The labyrinth encounter, fight against Vorgeth, and the Dul Incaru boss fight gives one piece of Dreaming City loot. Any armor received during this dungeon will typically have a roll of 60 or higher total stat points - perfect for players in need of better g

There are drawbacks to convenience in real life and it’s the same for video games. Despite their photo-realistic looks and often good gameplay, many modern games fall into the trap of being too convenient. With the games handling so much, little is asked of players, and that’s kind of a shame. Some of the best experiences in gaming come about when players have to do things for themselves.

Games like Destiny 2 give players more chances to do cool things thanks to the wealth of options they make available. Still though, cool things tend not to stay cool when they come so easily. Taking down three or four players in four seconds with a Titan Slam or Golden Gun looks amazing and feels great at first. A few dozen time later though, it still looks cool but its just routine at that point. Limitations may makes these sorts of games feel more difficult most of the time, but it can be worth it for those moments when one overcomes those limitations and does something awesome.

It must be said that classic Halo isn’t necessarily better than a game like Destiny 2. It had matchmaking issues and a progression system that was at least a little, if not very, broken. It also offered players little reason to play outside of simply enjoying multiplayer. It also suffered from feeling "same-y" after a while. Players didn’t have their own personal armories and, until Halo: Reach hit the scene, everyone always had the same basic abilities. Compared to Destiny 2, Halo offered players little in the way of personal options. If one was to find an edge, they had to either do it through power-ups, clever team tactics or just pure skill.

Released early in the PS4’s lifecycle, Bloodborne remains one of the best games on the platform. Unfortunately, at launch, the game was hampered with extremely long load times. Thankfully, From Software continued to work on that post-launch. Today, Bloodborne’s load times are extremely fast on PS4, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be better, which is where PS5 comes in. Overall, we’re looking at modest improvements to an already fast-loading game.

Additionally, these weapons will all be returning with a refreshed perk pool with the perks added to Destiny 2 PvE Guide 2 in Year 3 and Year 4. Players can acquire these weapons and all Dreaming City through the Shattered Throne dungeon, story missions, bounties, Queen Bounties, Offering to the Oracle, Corrupted Eggs, Blind Well, and Cat Stat

Additionally, two hidden chests in the dungeon will grant a random piece of gear. The first is beyond the Thrall Hallway, requiring players to jump over the railing instead of diverting to the left path. Land on the railing below, turn around and the chest can be found in front of a portal. The second chest is just after the fight against Vorgeth, requiring players to run to the right side of the elevator. This chest will require players to have the Tincture of Queensfoil in order to spawn platforms that form a pathway to the ch

**Destiny 2 ** continues to implement new ways to improve and repurpose old content as time goes on. Before the Season of the Chosen began, Bungie had confirmed that four Dreaming City weapons would be returning to the weapon pool, leaving three to be unobtained. These four weapons could only be acquired through activities completed in the Dreaming C

Unlike the reissued Moon gear, the Dreaming City gear can only be obtained through quests, hidden challenges, or challenges bound to a timeline or specific items. Most of these challenges can only be completed once per week per character, but in a few instances, there are challenges that don't respawn and are account bound - meaning the challenge progression is shared among all Destiny 2 characters associated with a profile. While most of the Dreaming City gear has already been unsunsetted, the reaming weapons that will be returning
