Finally bagged Sleeper catalyst.
Should have those 300 kills just in time for Season of the Sleeper to come to a close…

Finally bagged Sleeper catalyst. Should have those 300 kills just in time for Season of the Sleeper to come to a close… Easy way to do heavy catalysts in a few mins is to just buy a few raid banners then load into last wish, run to the wish wall, put in the shuro chi wish and it'll teleport you to the second encounter. From there you can just drop a banner, start the encounter, blast a bunch of thrall and then die once they stop spawning. Easiest way is to be a hunter with top tree tether and one shot will kill like 15+ right off the bat.
Then do it again. Can get 30-40+ kills a go and takes about a minute each time. If you run out of ammo drop a banner next run.
Best place to do heavy catalysts, IMO. Good for special as well, though thrallway in shattered throne may be a little better for a few of them. Just follow the video to get to the wish wall then shoot the symbols so they look like this and step on the plate (only need to do it once):  |

Finally got the 1330 challenge. Guess I'm done until the final story week.

It feels so long since there was new story content that I'd forgotten all about it wrapping up before the end of the season.
I'm still in two minds about continuing with the game next season, as it's been great just focussing on other games recently and not feeling like I have a second job to go to after work...
Guess I'll jump on in the final week and get rid of my gunsmith mats + check out the finale and then see how I feel.

Oh, looks like Bungie is resetting everyone to power level 1350 with the new expansion. So much for the grind. Well, I only did it to have an extra reason to play anyway.
It also looks like DMT and Hawkmoon will become available to all Beyond Light owners, for a relatively hefty price. One of these days I really should get myself that expansion, if only for completion's sake. Maybe when I find it for less than 10 euro somewhere.

There's basically no point in chasing the pinnacle cap unless you plan to do pinnacle activities and need every last power level tbh.
The DMT costs are pretty high but since it's a fixed roll you can just wait each week until one you like the look of comes up at least.

Can't be overstated how annoying axion bolts are on top tree void in PvP. They follow you ridiculously fast and have broken AF hitboxes. Plus they spawn a bolt for each nearby player, so if they cluster up the splash damage can hit multiple at once and one shot them. Then top tree void makes them blow up when they die, doing even more damage. They're in line for the nerf bat IMO.

What are folks thoughts on the Sony deal and the revelation that 1.2 billion of that was going to the staff.
I’ve been liking the output of lean and keen Bungie this past year, after a pretty dodgy start after Foresaken. I wonder if the model will change now going forward, or if they will just be able to provide a greater depth and breadth to content drops. Maybe devault more stuff? Get rid of the ridiculously convicted pricing structure?
Destiny will surely live on as an active IP long past the second currently planned expansion.

You'd hope it will help with future content and a big push into the last few expansions and future of the game beyond that. I wouldn't expect a big difference between Witch Queen and Lightfall in terms of output but I wouldn't be surprised to really see them go all out in Final Shape to try and cement what is to come beyond that.
Luckily I play it on PS anyway so if they decide to start doing stuff like Hawkmoon 2 I'm not going to miss out.

Ideally I'd like to see less focus on grind due to a reduced need to keep DAU/WAU numbers up and a bigger focus on making activities that tempted players back primarily through fun rather than needing to run it 70 times or something to get a catalyst.
Otherwise - just bigger expansions again would be nice. And some more time spent on how content in-game is organised and presented to players.
Should be a big TWAB this week. Weapon sandbox update.

New player entry desperately needs a rethink and an overhaul. Chuck a set of meaningful missions together in a location that will never be vaulted introducing the key systems through gameplay, rather than quest steps and bounties hidden behind menus and vendors.
If the aqcuisition just means that every new expansion is going to be a Forsaken then thats ideal.

Probably not. The whole reason why they bought Bungie was for their live service games expertise, so if anything I expect them to double down on seasonal stuff instead.

+40% damage in PvE for all exotics that use primary ammo… that should shake things up.

There are so many exotics that will be good in PvE now. Outbreak Perfected is going to be AMAZING.

Huckleberry was always great. It's just annoying to use in fireteam activities, because if you don't get the final blow, enjoy the super slow reload animation. Extra damage in PvE won't fix that.
Traveler's Chosen though... it's going to kick even more ass now.

That's a pretty damn tasty change. So many neglected guns are going to shine now.
DMT could be nice for ad clearing with something like subsistence. Riskrunner, Ace, Sunshot... Salivating at the thought.
Huck will be an absolute fucking beast!
I've gone from not being too bothered with coming back to D2 to hovering over the preorder button.

Ticuu's Divination will be a lot of fun.
Vex is still pretty useful in PvE even after the supposed debuff. Wonder how much that will be affected upward.

DMT RPM nerf to 130 on hipfire is a shame though. Will take the shine off it in PvE.
Some other fun stuff next season - Thorn + Necrotic Grip combo will be very powerful. Ruinous Effigy should be back on the menu as trace rifles get the buff too, plus the defend mode has been un nerfed. Tarrabah and Huckleberry will both be nasty. Sweet Business could be fun too.

By the way, this origin trait stuff sounds a lot like stealth sunsetting. Adding new bits to newer guns is basically meaning that they can make all our old guns redundant if the new perks are worth using.
