    Is the game easy to get back into right now?

    I used to play the shit out of D1 back in the day as a kid, I always chased that same feeling in D2 but could never get there, so I stopped playing soon after launch. I came back for Forsaken, might have played through Shadowkeep too, but I've missed out on everything else after that.

    I just saw the new trailer for Heresy, and the return of the Dreadnaught and Oryx brought back a ton of memories. I thought The Final Shape was the last content pack for the saga, but some sources say it's Heresy.

    If I recall, the prices and understanding which and what to buy has always been a mess. Where should I begin?

    I didn’t unlock Wild Style during it’s weekly Nightfall, is there any way for me to get it before reset?

    Just wasn’t playing a ton recently, noticed that was the only Nightfall weapon I didn’t unlock this episode, is there any way for me to unlock it by playing tonight? (current nightfall weapon is Undercurrent), or can it only be unlocked / acquired for the first time on a week where it’s the focus weapon?

    Did I locked myself out of echoes ?

    I’ve been busy with work And I left off at the beginning of act 3 of echoes Recently was just able to jump in Since we’re in in revenant and echoes is still playable Will it be playable after tomorrow’s reset or is it gone for good ? Edit: Thank you I’ll still be able to play it On an unrelated note Will the star wars set be available for bright dust ? Also hunters should have gotten mandalorian or boba fet And warlocks palpatine Also this might be asking for much but a lightsaber would be a beatific addition to the swords in the game

    What to spend vanguard engrams on at Zaval

    Very new player here. Still f2p at the moment hoping for sale to pop up on Xbox sometime soon.

    I’m just looking to get sorted for the next season and looking to use up my vanguard engrams, is there any recommendations on weapons and rolls I should be aiming for at all. I know the weapons are outdated but anything would help at this stage.

    Cheers

    I played and cataloged 171 strikes this past season here are the results

    These are ordered by how they came up in the playlist.

    Heist battleground moon 10 The lightblade 7 Defiant battlegrounds edz 13 Defiant battlegrounds cosmodrome 5 Hypernet current 7 Heist battlegrounds mars 4 Fallen saber 7 Psiops battlegrounds edz 6 Defiant battlegrounds orbital prison 7 Lake of shadows 5 The corrupted 6 Battleground foothold 4 Heist battleground europa 4 Warden of nothing 5 Scarlet keep 4 Battleground oracle 5 Liminality 7 Battleground hailstone 8 Proving grounds 5 Exodus crash 8 The disgraced 4 The Devils lair 7 Legend psiops battlegrounds cosmo 3 The arms dealer 3 Psiops battlegrounds moon 7 Insight terminus 3 Birthplace of the vile 4 Glassway 6 Battleground behemoth 6 The Inverted spire 1

    I had 82 battlegrounds and 89 strikes come up. While I had less battlegrounds come up there are also 4 less battlegrounds than there strikes. I'm no mathematician but battlegrounds definitely come up at a higher rate. I honestly didn't think Inverted spire was in the playlist only to find it was towards the end of my venture. Anyways I'm done with the strike Playlist, I hate the majority of battlegrounds and I spend half my time going to orbit. I'd rather play crucible with mixed results than deal with the strike playlist

    Should I hold on?

    I find myself in a spot that I still love the game but I just can’t keep up anymore. Work/life makes it impossible to grind all day everyday and I feel like playing catch up when I was still in my old clan. They could raid everyday, grind everyday and I was always behind in power level or gear. It felt more like a chore to get my level up and collect everything needed then I was actually enjoying playing. I still want to enjoy everything the game has to offer but I also want to enjoy time with my family. I left my old clan, uninstalled Destiny a little while ago because I just don’t see how I possible can keep up and enjoy. Now I start to miss it, a lot. I have no idea what to do. Should I give it another go and try change my mindset or just leave it for what it is?

    Who is voicing Oryx in this new episode?

    Is it the original VA that chose to stay uncredited? 'cause in the trailer it doesn't really sound like him, granted we've only heard him talk normally in one cutscene & the rest it's him screaming, or it's just different audio mixing, or(x2) it's really a new VA.

    F2P Safe Space

    Just a thought with Heresy coming out, this subreddit needs a safe space for F2P players to talk about what they can earn from the season without all the hate from paid players (it's been pretty much nothing lately, but stuff like seasonal weapons from the powerful engrams dropped in Onslaught). I'm not hating on people for paying for content, so why is everyone so concerned about me being F2P?

    Will I lose all of my unclaimed engrams with tomorrow's update?

    I have a lot unused. Or at least what I think is a lot. Maybe it's not?

    What are the pros and cons to carrying over this many?

    Edit: I wanna puke.

    Edit: I don't even know where to start. I would love to spend them in the most efficient way possible. I don't know what that is.

    Worst community of all time?

    Every post is another “wahhhh game bad” nothing related to anything cool or interesting everyone just over complains about the smallest “issues” not saying the game is perfect but to the level of every post being a complaint for over 3 years is a joke tbh

    What "free" exotics can you get these days?

    By "free" i mean ones you can get via quest, not referring to ones from season passes or from the exotic vault or whatever its called.

    I havent played in over 3 years, but i do have all the expansions. I would play a super tiny bit, think "this is it, im back" buy the expansion, realize i don't want to do any grinds, stop playing. I thought that might be the case this time again but I'm still here after a week and I'[ve already done a few grinds that would have previously stopped me so it looks like im back for a good bit this time.

    So, i own all the expansion. but i still need to complete like... four campaigns so that'll be fun. In the meantime which exotics are you able to get from quests.

    Here is a quick album of my exotic collection so you can easily see what i have and don't have, so you can very easily say "you can do this" or "you can get that once you finish this campaign" etc.

    Thank you for the help!

    Edit: An important note i forgot to add is that i really really don't like doing high end content or PvP. If it means not burning myself out, not becoming impossibly frusterested, not losing all interest in the game due to toxicity them im completely fine not getting an exotic if it require extensive PvP, or a raid, or doing LFG only* (like a dungeon). Basically the measure of whether or not I'm going to go after the effort is to simply ask, "can it be done solo?" Again, I'm fine with not getting the exotic yet, at least until i feel ready enough to go after these higher end stuff.

    *If i can solo it without a super tuned ultra balanced borderline speedrunner build, then that's alright

    How do you guys play so well lol

    I am literally stuck with Omni Void hunter build, the on-demand invisibility is just too good for me, trying to learn how to play on endgame content, Grandmaster or things like that

    But I've tried really long on different recommended builds to improve my damage output, just can't seems to go beyond Nightfall difficulty lol

    I've tried kill base build but always got KS... Ends up dying a lot as I can't get any kill..

    I've tried self heal base but still relies on kill

    I've also tried CC build like stasis, freezing everything

    I have no problem managing adds but when there's boss, I die like no future 😭😭

    Anyone mind sharing some tips? I love the Prismatic Shrouded Liar build but still facing the same issue as above..

    Returning player after 7 years

    I played the original Destiny for the first 2 years. Enjoyed it quite a bit. Then played D2 the first year or so. Never bought any expansions. Recently wanted to play again as the actual gameplay was always excellent. I downloaded it and of course its free to play now. Im very much so lost. It seems very confusing. Do I have to purchase all the dlc? I dont even know what to buy haha. I ended up just playing crucible. I guess I still got it because I ended #1 for my team on control. Regardless is there a good guide to follow for returning players? It seems so confusing and overly micro-transactive that I also just put d1 back in and it seems much more easy on the learning curve.

    Season of the revenant recap?

    My group and I didn't play this season can anyone give me the TLDR recap?

    Story? (I assume another echo was found by another no name who escaped yet again to allow a "return" at a later date?)

    Meta changes?

    Anything else of note?

    If Bungie brings back Taniks as a Taken boss for this episode it will be a 11/10 episode and there will be nothing Bungie will make that can be better than Heresy

    What activity do you turn to when you just want to log in and shoot stuff?

    I've been finding myself just running Altars of Sorrow more and more just to test weapons, test builds, and when I just want to log in for a few minutes and slay some stuff.

    What activities do you jump into to just have some quick fun?

    Started a fresh playthrough of D1 on PS5.

    I am a day one guardian and took part in the Alpha/Beta for D1 logging over 2000 hours on PS4 before D2.

    I have been feeling nostalgic for the old days, so started a fresh playthrough of Destiny on Playstation. Stoked to go back and see how much has changed since I left all those years ago
