The Best Sniper Rifles For Your Destiny 2 Arsenal

The Best Sniper Rifles For Your Destiny 2 Arsenal

That mentality extends to the way Bungie is handling post-launch content. Season of the Undying sees waves of Vex arriving via a storm to take over the Moon. Watching them arrive is breathtaking, and the firefights that ensue are hectic and enjoyable. Then there's the new Vex Offensive activity, which allows players to travel back to the Black Garden to take on the Vex. It's a surprisingly robust seasonal activity and it'll be interesting to see what lasting impact the Vex have on the Moon once the Season is over.

Still Hunt is one of the strongest snipers in the game, if not definitively the best. It's main trait, Cayde's Retribution, allows the gun to fire Golden Gun shots after landing enough headshots and/or picking up enough Orbs of Po

Therefore, the Fallen Captain is a formidable enough of a foe to kickstart this list. The trademark of The Fallen includes glowing blue eyeballs and purple exoskeleton. The best way to defeat insectile Fallen Captains is to head north on the area map toward Winding C

Since the release of Destiny 2, monetization has been a thorn in all player's sides. Though Bungie tweaked it to be fairer, players still resented the idea that Bungie was selling a $49.99 Season Pass with Gaming microtransactions on top of it all while asking players to pay up front to get the game. Anyone hoping things would get better after Bungie's split from Activision isn't going to be happy to hear what's happening in Shadowkeep.

The biggest perk of this weapon is that it is a Legendary weapon that punches way above its weight, allowing players to use the game's more potent Special weapons, like Conditional Finality and The Chapero

In 6V6 Rusted Lands provides a playground where gameplay is guaranteed to be fast-paced. Getting to the enemy won't take forever, and the long lines of sight areas are limited by a huge abundance of cover. As such, there are countless opportunities for shotgun lovers and those who enjoy a good mid-range hand cannon du

Despite all the regression with the campaign and monetization and the rehashing of older content, Destiny 2 still looks quite good. The Moon is an atmospheric place to visit and traversing the caverns the Hive call home produces a sense of dread that other locations in the Destiny 2 experience can't provide. Meanwhile, the short visits into the Black Garden are gorgeous thanks to all the colors and lush jungle mixed with Vex machinery. Destiny 2 may be two years old now, but it's still looking good.

The Guardians use a powerful ability known as The Light to save the Last City from the darkness of alien habitation. Throughout the course of the game, several monsters confront the Guardians on their quest. Here are the ten most powerful monsters in Destiny 2 , ran

Aiding players greatly is its White Nail, an Exotic Perk that not only grants this weapon high precision damage at the base but also refills the magazine when landing three quick precision hits. As such, Whisper of the Worm becomes an incentivizing weapon for snipers who don't want to reposition often and can take advantage of its extra sh

Excavation Site II - Heading straight east from the Giant's Scar travel point, the player will end up at the second excavation site. In the excavation site's cave system there will be an electrical room. An eye is sitting in this room atop a shelf near the entra

_Destiny 2 _ 's Season of Arrivals has players hunt down 50 bright blue orbs throughout the planets and moons for the Hive-God, Optometrist Triumph. These orbs, known as Savathun's Eyes must all be destroyed for the Hive-God. This task can be daunting due to how widespread these items are, but not impossi

The cycle of Destiny whiplash continues with Destiny 2: Shadowkeep. Like during the Destiny 1 era, we started with a lackluster opening, then got two awful expansions, got our significant overhaul, and now we're at the stopgap. Much like Rise of Iron , it's hard to shake the feeling that Bungie is just buying time until the inevitable next entry in the franchise. In this case, Destiny 2: Shadowkeep feels like Bungie is slow-walking to Destiny 3. The campaign ends up going nowhere, ending in an unsatisfying cliffhanger we likely won't see resolved for a while. Meanwhile, as great as the Moon is compared to its incarnation in the first game, there's no getting around the fact that we've already seen and paid for this before. The core gameplay is still the star of the show, the Moon is a fun place to play around in, the Strikes are imaginative and the new Seasonal Activity is a standout. But you can access all that without owning Shadowkeep (though the Seasonal Activity does require you to own the Season Pass). Destiny 2: Shadowkeep isn't bad, but it also feels wholly unnecessary when most of its selling points (Strikes, the Moon, Armor 2.0) can be played without owning it. This is one nightmare we didn't need to have.
