Destiny 2: The 5 Hardest Strikes (& The 5 Easiest)

Destiny 2: The 5 Hardest Strikes (& The 5 Easiest)

With less than a month left in _Destiny 2 _ : Season of the Worthy, players have a little time to complete any remaining objectives unique to this season. The season pass, as well as maxing out light level are two of the main objectives, but there are a few other things that offer players some modest rewards left to complete before Season 11 goes under

Another factor is crafting all the Wellspring weapons, which can be an arduous grind for players with limited time, given the abysmal drop rates of Deepsight Resonance weapons from the Wellspring activity. A time-consuming and somewhat challenging seal, in all rega

class=Probably one of the more daunting challenges is breaking down the differences between New Light and the two major expansions: Forsaken and Shadowkeep. The new free-to-play experience is meant to get players on the sidelines in the door for the first time. Despite this, this free experience actually comes with a lot of content.

Technically, Bungie didn’t lie about this. Players all got their packages and their armor was available in all of its resplendent glory, but what they didn’t know was how awful the stats on every piece of armor would be. On average, Solstice armor stats sat anywhere from 20-30% weaker than high-tier armor, thus rendering it completely useless for endgame content. Like clockwork, the community was appalled at this decision. Many had spent a great deal of time, effort, and even money to acquire the exact looks they wanted from Solstice. To have that made so useless so quickly was a huge blow to mor

Players who are not a fan of teamwork will absolutely hate The Corrupted strike. The level on its own is one of the hardest in-game levels players will face anyway but the added need to rely on your teammates makes coordination between teams all the more imperat

Halo Infinite can learn much from this shift in content delivery. Having a meaningful progression of events from one season to the next immerses players much more deeply in the world in which they play. It’s a way to reward players for participating in the game throughout the year. One misstep that Bungie has experienced is that of content removal. Unfortunately, many of the headline activities of these new Destiny 2 seasons have had the bulk of their content removed at the start of the following season. Bungie attributes this to technical restraints which are understandable, but it made the game a bit punishing for players looking to take a br

While players don’t yet have a clear picture of how deep Halo Infinite is going to go down the Destiny road, it’s obvious that they will need to introduce activities that keep players engaged outside of just PvP and re-runs of the story missions. 343 Industries should absolutely be looking to satisfy their PvE-focused audience with challenging, repeatable, and rewarding endgame activities that respect the player’s time and provide a meaningful loop for players to engage

Destiny 2 : Season of the Worthy has been dubbed one of the worst seasons by some avid Destiny 2 players while others say it's the calm before the storm; as the story and gameplay is severely lacking, void of depth and meaningful progression. A lot of questions from previous Seasons have been left unanswered such as the state of Eris' Morn mind and allegiance, and the current standing of Uldren Sov, enemy turned Guardian. Players have yet to see the outcome of the Guardians and Vanguards alliance with Rasputin, as well as the resulting aftermath in taking on the Almighty and destroying it for good. Until then, here's a guide on some loose ends players may want to tie up before witnessing the end of Season

Boss fights and game enemies are sometimes not the only worry a player of Destiny 2 Walkthrough 2 should concern themselves with. In fact, in The Inverted Spire, enemies become the least of a player's worries. Instead, the environment around them takes center stage as the arena is constantly changing and shifting, causing players to have to adapt to what is going on around t

In addition to the new dungeon, Bungie also upped the rewards on their punishingly difficult Grandmaster Nightfall Ordeals. Players who get to the end of these mega-challenge missions in Destiny 2 are guaranteed to earn Ascendant Shards, the most coveted currency in the game. Bungie has shown that they want to encourage players to challenge themselves and are finally handing out the loot to justify the eff

This, of course, should be expected from a game that is as in-depth and player-driven as the Destiny franchise but that doesn't make it any less frustrating. So, let's count down the easiest strikes in the game, along with the gut-punching ones that leave players crying for their m

The Magnificent Armor is where the real work begins. Each player is gifted a Renewed set of armor that has low stats and looks old and dilapidated. Every piece of the set has a subset of tasks associated with it. These might include goals such as Complete Five Strikes, or Get 50 Precision Kills, or other things to that effect. Once players complete all requirements on all five pieces of gear, the armor can be upgraded to the Majestic versions with higher stats and better aesthetics. With this upgrade also comes a new, more challenging set of objectives to complete for each armor piece once again. In 2020, this first upgrade also unlocks the universal ornaments for the set as w
