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

Additionally, this weapon can add-clear even while focusing on a single target. While weapons that have Incandescent or Destabilising Rounds require you to kill multiple enemies to spread the debuff, this weapon is closer to something like Voltshot, which allows you to focus on one enemy, and let the add-clearing simply chain to the enemies around them. It is hard to put into words just how lethal this gun is, and with its perk Eye's Up, Guardian that increases damage from orbs, Siphon mods put this gun into a whole other ballp

Silver is Destiny 2’s premium currency that can only be purchased with real-world money. Meanwhile, Bright Dust was introduced as an in-game currency that would allow players to earn Eververse items without Silver. With Shadowkeep, however, Bungie has significantly neutered what players can buy all while increasing the amount of Bright Dust players can earn. Items purchasable with Bright Dust are hidden away in a less-than-stellar menu. Only a few items are available at a time with new ones rotating in every few hours.

As with most purchases put in front of Guardians, the ornaments can be bought with Bright Dust, a currency earned in-game, or Silver, the premium currency bought with real cash. The set costs either 6000 Bright Dust or 1500 Silver. For a straight comparison, 1500 silver is about $12-$15 depending on the silver bundle size purchased. Keep in mind, access to the entire Destiny 2 season of content and battle pass is 1000 silver. Bright Dust is a little trickier. The majority of players use a single Guardian as their only character in the game. A single character has the ability to earn 1200 Bright Dust per week if they complete all of the proper bounties. That means for one guardian to acquire their one set of armor, they’ll need to complete every available bounty for Hawkmoon god roll five straight weeks. If players want the armor on all three characters, it will require triple that effort. This is a lot of work or a lot of money to ask of players for a set of cosmetic orname

The Khvostov 7G-0X is a rare case of Kinetic weapons getting a good add-clear option, and the weapon is not only amazing at it, but the way it does it is uniquely lethal. Unlike most add-clear weapons, which typically cause explosive auras around targets to deal damage, this weapon has bullets that ricochet between multiple enemies at once. This places it in a unique position where it can add-clear around corners hitting enemies behind cover and not even visible to the pla

The Guardians of **Destiny 2 ** are once again celebrating the annual Solstice of Heroes, a month-long recognition of all the magnificent and wondrous deeds completed over the past year. Historically, Solstice has been a point of contention for many in the Destiny 2 community . The time required to achieve everything the event has to offer is often significantly longer than other events offered throughout the y

In the stream following the reveal of Forsaken, Bungie’s representatives took some time to do fans a "favor" and better explain what exactly will be included in the Annual Pass. Put simply, it will consist of new challenges, new gear, new lore, new challenges and new events. It all sounds good doesn’t it; as if they’ve finally found a way to keep new content coming outside the major expansions? Except that just about all of this is content that, even as recently as this past April, was all offered free of charge. To some this change might not seem like a big deal, their likely reasoning being that Bungie shouldn’t have to work for free. That’s true. They shouldn’t and they never have been. They’ve always been paid for it through the microtransactions offered through the Eververse cash shop. What’s more, acquiring funding for these "free" updates was and is the entire justification for having the Eververse in the first place .

Destiny 2 has been on a more or less upward trend since then. The game’s been getting better and players have more ways to enjoy their time in the game now than ever before. This isn’t to say that there haven’t been problems of course. Bungie has put a lot of effort into delivering continuous, seasonal content since the launch of Forsaken, and that content has run the gamut from bad to actually pretty good. Perhaps "bad" is actually too strong of a word to use regarding any of this content. Instead, it’s probably better to say that Destiny 2’s seasonal offerings were underwhelming at worst.
