Official Destiny Thread [RISE OF IRON OUT NOW!]

[Brief Keef]

Bungie's latest public event the Queen's Wrath is finally live and the new public event features new bounties with plenty of legendary and exotic gear to collect. This latest event will also tie in with Bungie's upcoming expansion pack (House Of Wolves). We will have more on that in an upcoming post but for now, many of you maybe wondering what exactly is the Queen's Wrath.


The Queen's Wrath is basically a limited event in Destiny's ever expanding Universe and features a load of new bounties and rewards to those who take on Her Majesty's quest.

This event which started on the 23rd of September will be available for a limited time only until 6th of October. As mentioned earlier there are loads of new bounties to pick up from Xander 99-40 located within the Tower. These bounties will be in addition to the standard Crucible and Vanguard bounties available from the list.

Here is a list of the Queen's Wrath bounties available to play so far from Xander 99-40.

• Last Days of Winter (+100 QF +5000xp): Defeat Draksis in the Scourge of Winter on Venus

• Archon Slayer (+100 QF +5000xp): Defeat Riksis in the mission Restoration on Earth

• Relic Harvest - Fallen (+50 QF +2500xp): Collect 200 Ether drops from Fallen (any planet)

• Extermination Protocol (+100 QF +5000xp): Defeat 200 Fallen with headshots

• Her Willful Gaze (+100 Queen's Favor +5000xp): Defeat 20 Guardians with Scout Rifle headshots

• By Thy Hand (+50 QF +2500xp): Defeat 20 Guardians with Hand Cannon headshots

By completing these bounties, guardians will be granted the Queens Favor, which basically is a new faction in the game. Instead of building reputation levels from wearing an item from a faction, you will gain access to exclusive bounties for special awards instead.

Once you have acquired the Queens favor. You will then be able to access special emblems, shaders, weapons and items unique to your Guardians class. Bungie are yet to reveal if the Queens Favor will also unlock any new armor, so make sure to bookmark this page for more updates on this vey soon

Check out the image below of all the items available so far, courtesy of Destiny Tracker.

Once you have finished a Queens bounty, you will then get a Kill Order, which basically opens up a new game mode, accessible via the solar system map above the daily refreshed Crucible tasks.

This mode will have you replaying the original story missions again but at a level 24 difficult mode. Once completed you will be granted a new Legendary gear for completing the task allowing you to acquire one new piece of Legendary gear for each new bounty you complete for the Queen.

I doubt it has anything do to with being lazy though because people that play FPS and MMORPGs are usually putting in lots of man hours to achieve a goal and finding out the best way to do it, since both are very stat and goal oriented.

I don't agree with you on the hand held thing, now a days people actually don't want there hand held but when the games designs are poorly explained it forces people to assume and get frustrated with not being able to understand a concept or set of rules. It's like playing Megaman X without the first level, yeah you'll eventually figure everything out, but its going to be frustrating as hell.

true, people that play those games do put in hours, but for whatever reason they dont want to put the hours in destiny, they want the shyt given to them.....just look at the complaints...a lot of the things people are complaining about can be found in the game if they took the time to read and play the game....

as for hand held: that's not true...video games have gotten easier over the years, and continue to do so...so much so that a game gets praise for not being so easy....in the case of destiny: since the game isnt hand holding easy, people are upset.....all people gotta do is play the game and pay attention to what it says in game...ex: once you reach level 20 and unlock light, the game clearly states: to increase your level, you need to increase your light...to do so get gear with higher light levels...simple....well how do you get better gear? by doing higher level missions, leveling up ranks and gear, etc.; which is all stated in the game when you select missions, read details of things, etc.....simple...

just cause people arent getting the shyt they want when they want it doesnt mean the game is that confusing nor poorly designed from an explaining standpoint....people are just not willing to invest the time into the game to get better shyt....now, some of that blame does fall on bungie cause they undersold the rpg leveling aspect of the game (finding materials, exp points, etc.) and oversold the fps aspect....so a lot of people werent expecting they'd have to do as much searching, grinding (not farming), etc that you have to do....they thought they were getting a fps with some rpg aspects, and it's the other way around for the most part....

Who said anything about farming? I play all aspects of this game. Patrols, PVP, daily shyt, missions. I add my bouties to correlate with whatever mission, planet, its belongs to. I ran through the Venus/Moon patrols about 7 missions each with about four bounties and still didn't level up. The game is stingy with the rep.

maybe it wasnt you, but farming is all many talk about....what level are you currently?....cause if you doing what you say, you should at least be close to level 2....once you do reach level 2, you're good...cause currently, that's when you can buy pretty much any and everything from the vanguard and crucible dealers....

 

[lutha]

You cannot tell me that this PVP is balanced. These guys with legendary weapons are getting one hit kills

it's pretty balanced so far.....i mean, you can get 1 hit kills with uncommon and rare shyt....

 

[DeeZ]

Man I haven't even as much as sniffed an exotic anything from this game yet

Keep doing Bounties and eventually they unlock an Exotic Bounty mission to collect one.

 

[lutha]

Gotta get to rank 3 in dead orbit first. Splitting crucible and vanguard rep takes WAY too long.


All my legendary gear is bought+ my exotic gauntlets.I have 0 legendary/exotic anything from drops/pvp

have you increased your engram level? the higher you go, the better engram drops you get.....at least get to level 6/7......also, go do a couple queen bounties, then kill missions, guaranteed legendary gear as a reward...and her shyt is good...i'm keep one of the helmets....

 

[lutha]

damn, just released my dumbass picked the same exotic bounty i've already done...i'll be stopping that shyt and trying for another one...

 

[Romell]

Keep doing Bounties and eventually they unlock an Exotic Bounty mission to collect one.

I know. Turned in 10 in the past 12hrs.

I'm in legendary gear/weapons from head to toe(minus my boots) I just want an exotic for the collection

Loot cave has been patched.
And the Queen's Wrath legendary items do not give ascendent shards when you dismantle them.

Edit: And blue engram drops have been reduced, so no engram looting on the moon as well.

 

[Airtrack360]

Loot cave has been patched. At least we still have the Dark Beyond loot run on the moon.
And the Queen's Wrath legendary items do not give ascendent shards when you dismantle them.

They said they're gonna increase loot drops at the end of missions though so there may be hope for us yet.

Good.

 

[ThiefyPoo]

Good.

I thought farming was normal in mmo's

 

[Deezay]

The more kills you get on a planet, the more drops on that planet.

I like to feel like I worked for mine.

I think someone said it was breaking the game.

I tried doing it last night and only got a few drops. I rather they just incrase the drops.

So don't farm then
