What works in PvE is not always what is optimal in PvP in Destiny 2 lighthouse 2 . There is some crossover, but ultimately, the two arenas require their own builds and loadouts. PvP is more about surviving and seizing opportunities by picking off players when it is safe to engage. There are ways to achieve this through more aggressive playstyles, but the core concept rema

Nowadays, many people are introduced to tabletop roleplaying games after starting out with video games, rather than the other way around. A few aspiring game designers have even created tabletop RPGs inspired by the settings, characters, and gameplay of their favorite computer RPGs, strategy games, and first-person shooters. Many of these "homage" RPGs focus on narrative over simulation, sacrificing intricate rules in favor of creating character interactions and plot twists even the most cutting-edge video games can't yet ma

The Dark Below expands upon many of the game's worst elements rather than introducing new ideas or building on the things that really worked. What little story development provided falls far too short and much of the length comes not from additional content but instead meaningless grinding. The Dark Below offers something new to do for those who have already reached the endgame, but very little e

After the disappointment of The Dark Below , House of Wolves provided Bungie with some much-needed redemption. It's everything that the earlier expansion should have been and felt like the moment that the developer started to really listen to what players were asking for rather than trying to shove unwanted content down their throats. Even for those who didn't enjoy the expansion, it was infinitely more palata

The new storyline was definitely the highlight of the expansion and helped to breathe life into the game just as it looked to be on its last legs. The update also brought with it a host of quality-of-life improvements that helped to streamline the Destiny experience. In many ways, it felt like Destiny 's coming of age and marked the moment that the game finally realized its full potent

Chroma Rush is a Kinetic Auto Rifle with a Rapid-Fire Frame in Destiny 2 . This intrinsic perk allows for increased ammo reserves, and a slightly faster reload when the magazine is empty. It's a great PvE weapon with many perks to choose from, but it can be used effectively in PvP as well. Like all Override weapons, Chroma Rush can be randomly acquired from an engram after increasing the Splicer Servitor rank. Additionally, Chroma Rush can be acquired through focused engrams with the Splicer Armory (which contains all six weapons) or Splicer's Captain Armory (which only contains Chroma Rush and Ignition Code).

Ignition Code is a Kinetic Grenade Launcher, a legendary weapon type not often seen in Destiny 2. Being a Lightweight Frame Grenade Launcher means that it has a remote detonation option. Hold the trigger down upon firing Ignition Code, and release it to manually trigger the explosion. Ignition Code can be used to complete the Season of the Splicer Week 5 challenge "Grenade Launcher Splicer," and it is randomly acquired from the Splicer Servitor rank engram, as well as the Splicer Armory and Splicer's Captain Armory engrams.

Originally introduced during Season 17, Bungie features Raids and Dungeons in a weekly rotation to make them farmable with updated rewards. Bungie is making 2 of each available in the featured rotation each w

Updated May 20, 2025: Another week has come for Destiny 2 , which means missions, challenges, and rewards have been reset. Many fans are likely counting down the weeks until Destiny 2 's Edge of Fate expansion launches , kicking off a new year of content. In addition to the first expansion, Year of Prophecy will include two major updates and a Star Wars- inspired second expansion called Renega

For now, though, the Rite of the Nine activity continues forward with its revised schedule and enhanced reward system. Bungie stepped into a bit of controversy with the Destiny 2 Rite of the Nine event after players accused the studio of timegating content when it was discovered that each dungeon was on a three week cycle. However, the studio quickly pivoted and announced changes to the overall schedule and made loot more plenti

Many consider them to be pioneers of the live service formula, although a big part of their success comes not from these GaaS elements, but rather from their fantastic DLC. The best Destiny expansions help to elevate their respective games, offering quality-of-life improvements and new story content while further fleshing out the series' expansive lore and world-build

The expansion brings with it a host of updates and new content that rewards those who stuck with the game while it was treading water during its infancy. The Gambit game mode is probably the best thing on offer, but there are plenty of other positives to be found in Forsaken . The new storyline has a lot of potential, although at times is held back by the game's substandard storytelling. It's not the worst out there, but is perhaps the only missed opportunity in an otherwise fantastic Destiny 2 expans
