Destiny 2 | PS4/XB1/PC | Out Now

[42 Monks]

I'm trying to hurry up and finish God of War so I can get on this DLC.
You guys liking it so far?

I like the tone of it all, and I like where things are going - but I'm not playing it like that.

There's too much other good stuff out for me right now. It'd be forcing myself to play and appreciate the turn around in progress more than anything else.

They slowed down the pace of leveling to where you log in, do your milestones and end game content for the week, and can be pretty much done playing. So there'll always be something to chase, but there aren't any ways outside of those weekly objectives to get there. The masterwork system with exotics is cool, making each exotic with a masterwork seem like a miniquest. Exotics weapons are actually powerful now.

PvP is meh to me. No radar in ranked really kept the entire holding hands and corridor peep shooting thing alive. If you que solo, still can go against stacks. Honestly should've waited until the September update to drop this probably.

If you're trying to just get a couple of hours a night into this though, definitely worth coming back to if you enjoyed the original Destiny 2 experience. If you're looking for the patch to bring Destiny back then nah.

I loved Destiny 2 from the jump pretty much and ran religiously with the Coli brehs for a minute.
I haven't been on at all for a minute except for playing the campaign with my daughter every now and then.

These heroic strikes now

Not even gonna bother doing anymore of that Exodus Black shyt, they may as well take that strike outta the game.

You guys not killing the adds? That strike is hard but there's a new strike that's harder than that.

Radar is some gay shyt. Shouldn't be in any game.

 

[42 Monks]

I don't mind radar, I hate the STRENGTH of the radar in Destiny 2

they could've easily tuned it down without removing it entirely

Of course I kill the adds. And the strike isn't hard, just a slough. But the Exodus Black strike has always been terrible, even before this update.



You talking about the ps4 exclusive strike? The one with the psion at the end. Yeah that does get hectic at the end.

Yea that Psion shyt is crazy.

Exodus strike always trash I agree.

Yea, that shyt is dumb extra but everybody gotta be on point.
It's almost like you have to have two on adds and 1 person on him, but before he goes melee.
Strategy switches quick after that point.

Fixes coming to make Heroic strikes worth completing. You will be able to reach 365 just by running these strikes.

Heroic strikes are a great example of something we definitely want to keep iterating on. In the May 29 update, you’ll see a small change to help make these better.

• Escalation Protocol Key Fragments will become a 100 percent drop chance from each Heroic strike. The goal here is to make getting these fragments more accessible while also preserving the need to go play non-open-world content to get the fragments.
  
• Heroic strikes will be able to drop better rewards. Every three to five Heroic strikes will drop a Legendary that can carry you up to 360 Power (before mods). This should better align the rewards of Heroic strikes with the difficulty of the activity and help solo players have a more reliable source of upgrades.

We won’t have any time to make changes to what’s coming on the 29th, but please let us know how you feel about these rates; it is good information to inform future updates.



Season 3 Iron Banner weapons seem trash based on their perks, but the ornaments are fire.

Power level increases now work as follows:
Complete Campaign -> Milestones to 345 ->Nightfall, levaithan raid & EOW Raid Layer to 355 -> Heroic Strikes to 365 -> Spire Raid Layer, Leviathan, EOW -> +370
then you can run Escalation no problem.

It's got me playing a lot more than I used to, that's for sure. A lof the end-game content people have clamored for is locked behind dedicated fireteam shyt, like the raid and trials. Unless you had a squad that stuck around through CoO up until this point, finding a group to run those activities to get higher PL gear is hard as shyt.
