In addition to the monumental effort required to simply afford the ornaments, players are also upset about one specific task required to activate the glow on their shiny new armor. Once players have earned their Magnificent sets, one of the tasks necessary for the glow is to achieve seven wins in Trials of Osiris . This high-intensity PvP mode is widely considered to be the most skillful form of Crucible in Destiny 2 . Many lower-skill players tend to avoid it entirely due to the time and ability required to achieve the best rewards. While Bungie may be trying to bolster the population of the mode to improve matchmaking balance, Trials contains a myriad of other problems as well. In the past, Bungie has responded to negative player feedback like this with on-the-fly changes to make the goals easier, so that may happen this year as w

If any gun in this list is going to compete with The Summoner with regard to perks, it's Rufus's Fury. This weapon has some of the best elemental synergy with Strand, and one look at its perk pool is enough to see why. Its first column alone can run Rewind Rounds for more shots before reloading, Demolitionist for more grenade energy, and Reconstruction for auto-loading up to twice the magazine s

This weapon also has the rare trait of coming in both Kinetic or Strand depending on whether its catalyst is equipped, meaning it can be used in Prismatic to gain Transcendence energy for both light and dark elements simultaneously, or on Strand to create more Tang

When Destiny 2 Secret Mission 2 launched, it was arguably a shell of the original. Sure the story was a little more cinematic, but much of what had made Destiny fun and compelling was now strangely absent. Customizable class builds were gone, replaced by ones pre-made by Bungie. Randomly-rolled loot was gone too; now all one had to do was get a gun once and that was it. No more chasing godrolls. Supers were toned-down and put on an excessively long timer; the other abilities were too. There was "more" to do in the hub-worlds too, but it all somehow came-off as even more shallow than the activities available in the original. Throw an over-emphasized Eververse and a merely "okay" raid (with disappointing loot) on top of that and the recipe for a disastrous launch period is complete.

Guardians playing Bungie 's Destiny 2 don't always have to head to battle guns blazing. However, other players with a flair for tactical battles might want to approach their missions with a degree of finesse. After all, what better way of keeping safe on the battlefield than by dealing damage from afar? And thanks to the Sniper Rifle, players can easily play with enemies from the rear while their allies pick them

Since its launch in the fall of 2017, Destiny 2 has led an interesting life that it turns out is going to extend far beyond that of its predecessor. A couple of weeks ago, Bungie revealed their long-term plans for Destiny 2, announcing major expansions for the game going all the way into 2022 at the very least. Instead of being on its way out, Destiny 2 may indeed only be halfway through its lifespan. With that in mind, perhaps now is a good time to look back and see how the game has grown since its dismal launch week.

A comprehensive ranking of Crucible maps is highly subjective and depends on what a player's playstyle is. Moreover, maps will perform differently depending on whether the game mode is 6v6 Control, 3v3 like Trials, or even something like Mayhem. For the sake of simplicity, only 6v6 Control and 3v3 Trials are considered for this ranking. Players who don't find their favorite map here need not worry—this isn't a definitive best of the best, but simply one perspective among many on the most enjoyable m

Embraced Identity is a decent enough sniper for those who require a Void Sniper. Not only is it craftable, but it comes with very flexible PvE perks that allow players to tailor it to their needs. In activities like Grandmaster Nightfalls, perk combinations like Reconstruction and Fourth Time's the Charm come in handy for making every bullet count while reducing the need to rel

Convergence is a very small, very tight Vex-themed Crucible map. It can get extremely chaotic in a setting where there are six players running around, and players might feel like they are constantly dying and coming out of spawn to the mid area, only to die to mayhem ag

There's plenty of good gameplay to be had outside of the mid area, too. The outer corridors have a bit more space and can be useful for players wanting to set up flanks or looking to break an enemy's position if they are bunkering down in one spot. Overall, the variety is good here, and the map isn't overly big, which forces players into encounters fas
