How to Get The Exotic Traveler's Chosen Sidearm in Destiny 2

Halo Infinite can learn much from this shift in content delivery. Having a meaningful progression of events from one season to the next immerses players much more deeply in the world in which they play. It’s a way to reward players for participating in the game throughout the year. One misstep that Bungie has experienced is that of content removal. Unfortunately, many of the headline activities of these new Destiny 2 seasons have had the bulk of their content removed at the start of the following season. Bungie attributes this to technical restraints which are understandable, but it made the game a bit punishing for players looking to take a br

Izanagi’s Burden is a bit of a niche pick, but it’s so unique in what it does that it’s hard to recommend anything else that fits the job. What sets Izanagi’s Burden apart from the rest is that it can hold onto an absurd amount of burst damage, that can be unleashed whenever desi

Another map that seems just right in terms of size is Dead Cliffs. There are good corners and lines of sight here for some cheeky snipes that long-range players can set up. The middle pillar where heavy ammo spawns traditionally is a nice pressure point where teams will usually trade fire, as well as the actual cliffside ar

Endless Vale has a nice variety of pressure points for both sides, with three, round mini arenas in the middle. Shotgunners might struggle here as well, as mid-range and sniping reign supreme, at least for the middle and cliff-side poi

Critical Anomaly arguably brings more utility than any sniper rifle before it. Not only is this a great weapon for dealing damage — with just about every boss damage perk one could want — but it is also the first of Destiny 2’s Sniper Rifles to roll with Chill Clip. This allows players to stun Overload Champions in a single shot by applying Slow to them, and stun Unstoppable Champions in at least two shots of the sniper by applying Freeze, which will stun them and deal outgoing damage when Shattered by any other wea

Vostok does not inspire joy for everyone, and that's okay. Others are quite passionate about the map, located on a snowy, windswept summit. Visually, it's beautiful, but there are several locations on the map that favor long-range camping with snipers. Some enjoy it, others loathe

It has been nearly a year since Bungie shifted towards their evolving world, and things haven’t been perfect. However, there are absolutely a few things that 343 Industries should pay attention to when thinking about how they make Halo Infinite a platform instead of an iterat

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

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. The good news is that all players can enjoy these improvements whether or not they own Forsaken.

When you reach the Phalanx Echo, he has an immunity shield. You will need to cleanse Light and Dark pillars using the motes to take down the shield and deal damage to the boss. Your team should take the offensive until the Echo’s immunity shield is active again. Cleanse the Light and Dark pillars again, and repeat until you’ve won. To move on, your teammates must stand on the sandy pl

As an example, consider Destiny Onimusha 2 Yagyu Village guide’s recent Season of Dawn . Fresh off the laurels of Season of Undying , Guardians had just slain an epic time-jumping Vex Mind known creatively as "The Undying Mind." However, this creature’s death caused ripples in the fabric of time, ripples that allowed the mysterious Osiris to activate a powerful machine called the Sundial. With it, Guardians were able to travel through the Corridors of Time which gave them the ability to not only meet but save their long lost hero Saint-XIV. Saving Saint eventually led to the creation of the Lighthouse, which was the basis of the long-awaited return of Trials of Osiris a season later in Season of the Wort

It’s no secret that Destiny 2’s year of existence hasn’t been a joyride. From a disappointing launch that lacked vital features present in Destiny by the end of its lifecycle to several controversies, both Bungie and fans have been put through the ringer. Destiny 2 needs a reset and Bungie hopes to recapture the magic with Destiny 2: Forsaken, a true expansion built to give players exactly what they want. With a new campaign, weapons, locations and quality of life improvements, does Forsaken successfully press the reset button?
