Every Savathun’s Eyes Location in Destiny 2 (& How to Destroy Them)

Likewise, it’s nice that we finally got a new race of enemies to battle. The Scorn may have some relation to the Fallen, but they look and fight differently. The Scorn brings enemies that rush the player, swing fire-infused maces, attack mid-range and snipe from a distance. They’re not wholly unique from the current crop of enemies, but they provide a good change in pace.

What ensues is a weapon that essentially spreads explosive damage through the enemies it targets, which can create large chain reactions of explosions. This considerably reduces the amount of time players will require to get rid of large groups of enemies, often only requiring a kill or two before Sun Blast removes the rest. The best part is, that's it. There is no damage rotation to remember, or any alternative fire mode; just shoot and expl

What shines are the two new locations players visit throughout the journey. The Tangled Shore presents as a lawless chunk of rocks held together by anchors. The area presents plenty of variety with Skorn, Fallen and Cabal vying for dominance. As a playground to wander about and complete bounties, the Tangled Shore provides more exciting encounters than the majority of Destiny 2’s worlds. More impressive is the Dreaming City, the ultimate end-game location built for Guardians looking for a real challenge. Filled with powerful enemies, bounties and activities, the Dreaming City aims to prepare players for the upcoming raid, The Last Wish.

_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

Outside of the new story, locations, enemies and Gambit, most of Forsaken’s changes lie in its quality-of-life improvements. From the addition of in-game lore to random rolls for weapons and gear to an in-game accomplishment tracker, Bungie has done an excellent job bringing back popular features they nixed when jumping from Destiny to Destiny 2 Monetization 2. The good news is that all players can enjoy these improvements whether or not they own Forsaken.

On top of this, Fatebringer can roll Rewind Rounds , which refunds 60% of landed shots when the cylinder is emptied, as well as Explosive Payload, which buffs weapon damage by around 15% in PvE, as well as makes 50% of the damage dealt completely unaffected by distance. This essentially extends the weapon's range and gives it a damage boost all in one perk. These two combinations mean that Fatebringer is loaded with benefits that other weapons can only dream

Kell Echo - This final eye is found in the randomly generated area where the player must fight Kell Echo. The eye is hiding up in the rafters and can only be caught and destroyed before defeating Kell E

& 10. Pariah's Refuge Boss Room - These two eyes are closer together than any of the other eyes hunted down thus far. One floats just above the lanterns on the red string to the left side of the room. The other sits up on the balcony to the right side of the r

Firefly doesn't have a ton of use in PvP, and is really situational, but it can punish players who stack too close to one another, and is essentially a neat bonus on top of a gun that has two perks rolled into one with its main tr

Sunshot is definitively the best Hand Cannon in PvE. A sole survivor of the 150 RPM archetype, the weapon has arguably the best crowd control in the game. This comes from its main trait, Sunburn , which makes the weapon's bullets deal area-of-effect damage, and its main perk, Sun Blast , which causes enemies who die by the weapon to explode, Scorching nearby targets. Enemies who gain too many stacks of Scorch also explode, and spread more Scorch around t

Olympus Descent - This final eye on Mars is at the very southern end of the map in a network of cavernous tunnels that lead to Olympus Descent. It is resting on a rock formation at the very end of the tunn

Next, Warmind released to a subdued reception. It was more content-rich than Curse of Osiris thanks to an interesting player-triggered public event and actually decent guns to grind for, but it wasn’t the saving throw both fans and developer were hoping for. Adding to the problem was the eventual shelving of the Trials of the Nine PvP mode, leaving Crucible enthusiasts with no end-game content to chew on. Since launch, Destiny 2 had been on a nonstop downward trend, and it looked like the game was doomed to die a quiet death as players left for newer multiplayer games. Thankfully, that’s not what happened.

If players can now carry their rewards wherever they go, it seems unlikely that they have anything to be upset about, right? Unfortunately, there are still some major hoops that Destiny 2 players will have to climb through to get everything from this event. Once players complete the grueling grind to a glowing Magnificent set of armor, they do not automatically unlock the ornaments to match. In fact, players only unlock the right to buy the ornaments from the Destiny 2 Eververse store. What’s worse, the cost of the ornaments put them above and beyond nearly everything else available in the st
