Destiny 2 |OT| Here We Go Again

How do you get Step 3 to show up? I've done one 1/2 but I'm not seeing Step 3 in my Milestones or being tracked anywhere else. Devrim Kay didn't say anything about Step 3. I'm assuming it can be any Scout Rifle to complete Step 3, right?

Go to the
Gunsmith at the Tower.

They need to be rare or legendary scout rifles.
 
Alright Bungie. I finished your campaign even though I couldn't care less about the Traveler or Speaker or 'The Light,' and now I've got one question for you.

Where the fuck is the queen? How many more of these cock-blocking space emperor tyrants do I have to ruin to resume my courtship - you heard the servant lady in the last DLC, the queen was really starting to like me. Thanks for nothing.
 
Sorry if this is a dumb question, Destiny newbie here. How do you get together with randoms in campaign missions and side adventures? I could've swore when I played the first game that randoms would just show up most times. I feel like I'm always alone in 2. Am I being dense here?

I'm gonna say this. When I went back to the tower, after spending so much time there in D1. Thousands of hours that place was home I almost cried.I was prepared to start loving the farm like a new girlfriend a while after your true love was killed in a tragic accident. But then, just when I was ready to love again she came back from the dead
 
(Ending)
Holy FUCK, the Traveler is so fucked up. Holy hell. Wonder how we'll survive the next incoming baddie with the Traveler looking like this. And that post credits scene! Setting up the Osiris DLC? That thing/ship looked Vex-y. And TOWER JR.!
 
Ayy completed all the quests on Titan and got the
rat king
exotic quest. Will probably try and do it tomorrow.

This game is good man. I've barely touched Crucible too.
 
Lolrip. Accidentally spent 20 legendary frags (not really that many in the scheme of things) "purchasing" a legendary weapon from Tyra. Didn't realize what it was until it was too late.
 
What really? Haven't finished the game yet but had it spoiled we go back to the tower. I was assuming we could use whichever hub we wanted. Why abandon it?

You can still go back to it, but there's really no reason to because every vendor there is also at the new Tower.
 
Ending spoiler:
lol, why did Ghaul shout "I'm not letting you get away this time!"
during the fight? Did Bungie have a list of generic big bad quotes written down, and forget that one isn't applicable because he didn't let us get away? He literally just booted us off the tower without ensuring we would die. Didn't even chase after us or anything.

Dunno if you meant to say "also." They all permanently move. The Farm is basically empty.

While it's still a weird line regardless, you can't fault the guy for assuming that a multiple thousand foot fall would kill a guardian who no longer has a jump ability to use.
 
End/story spoilers:
I think it's pretty cool that the triangle ships concept art from Destiny 1/before are actually going to be something (That something I assume is actually The Darkness)


I can't wait for my brother to finish the story, he was always so hyped about these ships and sad they seemingly were never gonna get used.
 
Is it common now to get exotic drops??? I played for the first 3 hours and already got an exotic DERPI sniper rifle... I'm only level 7.

It took me months to get an exotic in D1. O_o

You might wanna remove the image embed and just leave the link to the image. Spoilers don't properly hide embeds on mobile.
 
What's the best thing to do with unwanted exotics like low level ones acquired during the story?
Be careful about dismantling exotics, you never know what you might have got early in the game (I dismantled an Icebreaker in year one D1...I know pain).

You can make low level exotics high level buy infusing them too with trash gear, if you didn't know that already :)
 
So, uh, I leveled up my Nessus reputation twice and got 2 engrams, but when I went to unlock them at the farm they were gone. Am I stupid, or where do I find these?

I don't think THAT's common. The first exotic I saw was a story mission reward. But it does come at a low level.
 
Just finished it. It's not Titanfall 2, Wolfenstein, or Doom level storytelling, but I had a good time. Just seemed weird
the Hunter guy from the vanguard was crackling jokes while the world was about to end.
The music and art direction got me through some of the slower portions of the game.
 
Failsafe is one of the few joke characters that actually works for me. I hate Cayde but Failsafe is sorta sparingly used in comparison.

Also I like Holliday, but does anyone else feel like her line reads come off as super weird sometimes? Like really long pauses and ending on a question? when it doesn't seem like the scene makes sense for that. It's like some of her dialogue was transplanted from a different scene entirely.
Funny, Failsafe is just as bad as Cayde if not worse to me.

Well, I did get mine from a boss in one of the early story missions, but my 2 teammates did not.

Still crazy to me they would give you one so early on.
 
Interesting.

Is there a more rare class in D2 or is exotic still the rarest?

Kind of makes it a lot less exciting to get one so early in the game lol.
Trust me, I understand that it lost some allure but this way is infinitely superior to what we went through in year 1 Destiny. Drop rates were atrocious and I ended up not getting some exotics. The other good thing is that there isn't really a stand out weapon yet and all exotics don't have any crazy or incredibly useful perks.

I didn't even know you could more than once, but the zone Engrams should be accessible right on the vendor screen. Go talk to Failsafe?
Only got the story exotics. I've not seen an exotic in the field yet and i'm level 16. Is exotic still the highest tier? They are given out on a silver platter through story.....
it's not really like that as far as tiers. Legendary is the highest tier, but exotics are unique and intended to change up your playstyle or be particularly well-suited to certain situations. You can equip one exotic weapon and armor piece each at one time, which changes up what you can put in the rest of your loadout
Well, I did get mine from a boss in one of the early story missions, but my 2 teammates did not.

You were lucky, I have beaten the campaign and am level 20 and have not seen one drop from a boss or anything yet. I have seen a random in the wild get one from a public event though.
 
So that was fun. If you join a strike after someone has left the fireteam, you have to start from the beginning, alone. I couldnt run past a locked door to my FT because I handt killed a boss
 
I like the game as many things are improved and it's fun to thread with friends.

But who wrote the dialog? Cheap Bane as the evil boss? You merely adopted the light, i was born in it- or something like that, "You and I are not that different?". "Is the hawk following us or are we following it?" Cliched shit all around. Facepalmbeach.

Still fun but goddamit hire an actual writer that can create good characters and good dialogue.
I think the characters fit the game perfectly, Gary really surprised me with his depth actually.
