If a comprehensive poll were put together to determine what Year One weapon the legions of Guardians would want to see upgraded in Destiny: The Taken King, the Gjallarhorn would more than likely top the list. The majority of Destiny fans admit to favoring the exotic due to its potency during the action-RPG’s Year 1 run, for the rocket launcher has helped lead them to a bunch of wins in the Crucible, the game’s popular PvP mode....
While it may seem like Ir Yut would be an easy challenge to complete, there are a few new mechanics to consider if players want to do it right. There are several ways to take out Ir Yut, but only one way will reward the new raid armor, ornaments, and weapons that players want. New Challenge Mechanics First off, time is of the essence in this encounter, so raid teams will want to assign roles to make sure that everything is done quickly and that no one is out of place....
Speaking of spending money in Destiny, Xur has once again returned to The Tower for his second appearance during the Dawning event. Last weekend, Xur didn’t have much in the way of holiday cheer – no presents, Santa hat, or even unique items – but this weekend he is in the spirit. Unfortunately, rather than come bearing gifts, Xur has some “coal” in his sack. But first Destiny players have to find Xur, who has set up shop across from The Speaker....
For most, the appearance of Xur is another part of the weekly Destiny schedule, but since there are likely many gamers who are just trying out the game for the first time, we thought it best to provide a quick rundown on Xur. Those who just want the regular details, however, can skip the next few paragraphs. Every weekend – from 1am PST on Friday to 1am PST on Sunday – Xur, the Agent of the Nine, appears in a random spot in the Tower, the Earth-based hub in Destiny....
This week, though, Destiny players can find Xur next to the Vanguard Quartermasters in the Eastern wing of the Tower. Head straight forward after spawning into the Tower, follow the stairs down, proceed past Eris Morn and the Crucible Handlers, and Xur should be in the final room on the right hand side. For exotic armor, Xur has a set of Year 1 items that have been upgraded to the Taken King’s new defense level....
While the hope was that on Black Friday Xur might offer some of his usual exotic wares to Destiny players at a steep discount, it appears the Agent of the Nine is not beholden to American consumerism. Rather, Xur is still asking for his usual sum of Strange Coins in exchange for some pretty useful weapons and gear. But first, it’s up to players to find Xur. This weekend, Destiny’s mysterious Agent of the Nine can be found in one of his usual spots right next to the Crucible Quartermasters....
RELATED: Destiny 2: 10 Side Quests Players Completely Overlook Destiny 2 had a rocky start as well, but when it comes to releasing quality content, it has been on a tear lately, and as time has passed, the game has gradually reintroduced veteran players to things they saw in the original game. For the most part, Destiny 2 has brought back several exotics but based on what was said during the recent Beyond Lightexpansion reveal, it looks like Bungie will be bringing back a lot more things in the near future, and this article will focus on some of the things fans will want to see make a comeback....
RELATED: Destiny 2: 10 Tips For Using Pulse Rifles In Crucible But hey! If you use a sniper rifle, you can strike fear into the hearts of your enemies, instead of the other way around! There’s quite a bit to take a look at when it comes to sniper rifles and their performance in Crucible, but before we get into anything else, keep in mind that sniper rifles, more than anything else in this game, largely come down to preference....
The Steady Hand The Steady Hand is a hand cannon with one of the highest Impact stats in Destiny 2. If players are able to keep a steady hand (pun intended) and can be consistent with headshots, this hand cannon could be a monster. The flip side of its powerful shots are an abysmally low Handling, Stability, and Reload stat. However, all the perks on the weapon (Flared Magwell/Alloy Magazine and Outlaw) are focused on increasing the reload speed....
Released on the 24th May, Destiny 2: Season of the Haunted brings some big changes to the game, along with a healthy supply of new content. One of the more interesting aspects of this Season is that it has brought back an iconic location from the early days of Destiny 2, but provided new story context and visuals to make everything feel fresh again. Along with the returning area, Destiny 2: Season of the Haunted is also bringing some new Exotics, a revamped Solar skill system, some new dungeons, and a few weapon balance changes for good measure....
Destiny 2’s newest expansion, Beyond Light, is right around the corner. During the wait, players have been getting their hands dirty in Festival of the Lost, the in-game Halloween event, by attempting to farm new cypher decoders for the chests at the end of the activity. While expecting to uncover secret objectives within the event, the community has been notified that there won’t be a hidden quest in this year’s Festival of the Lost event....
From the starting point at Eris Morn, Destiny 2 players need to traverse through Anchor of Light to the Hellmouth and head to the right side of the area from that entrance into the area. This is the path that players took for the Summoning Pits strike in Destiny 1. Players can either fight their way through or speed run past the enemies. The final destination is the Chamber of Night, which again will be a familiar location for veteran Destiny 1 players who played through the content of The Taken King expansion....
To beat Calus, fireteams will need to be extremely coordinated, more so than they have been in anything in Destiny 2 thus far. Beating the final boss fight in the Leviathan raid is no easy task, but we have some helpful tips that will get anyone through it. Creating the Raid Teams Before starting the fight with Emperor Calus, the fireteam will need to split into two groups of three....
Not only that, but there are community goals that will unlock permanent changes to the Eliskni Quarter along with unlocking other features and options for donating planetary resources instead of Captain’s Coins. It’ll take 400 million coins donated globally to complete the event, and here is the most efficient method of farming Captain’s Coins. RELATED: Destiny 2 Weekly Reset: New Nightfall, Challenges, and Rewards What Activities Reward Captain’s Coins Captain’s Coins can be earned almost everywhere in the game, just like with Spectral Pages during Festival of the Lost....
While the Thorn quest won’t go live in Destiny 2 until March 12th, the steps to reclaiming the exotic hand cannon are already in the game’s files. So those who are curious can see what it will take in order to unlock Thorn. There are 7 steps in the Thorn quest and they are fairly straightforward. And unlike The Last Word quest, which required completing multiple sub-steps within each quest step, the Thorn quest offers players options....
How to Get Uzume RR4 and Plug One.1 in S15’s Nightfalls Destiny 2 has a system for Nightfalls that makes them rotate every week, both in terms of what the Nightfall is, and what sort of rewards it provides to those who beat it. This week’s Nightfall is Exodus Crash, on Nessus, and this is the third week of Season of the Lost. Unless next week’s Nightfall includes yet another pair of guns, this means that Uzume RR4 and Plug One....
During the course of The Witch Queen’s main campaign, players will meet the NPC Fynch, who will task them with a side quest called “Trust Goes Both Ways.” The quest will take players all over Savathun’s Throne World and serves as a good primer for navigating the zone and tackling side objectives. But one step of this quest has been tripping up players. RELATED: Destiny 2: How to Get Deepsight Resonance Weapons...
To start the Thorn quest, players want to head to the Salt Mines area in the European Dead Zone. This is the area behind the church in the Trostland EDZ landing zone and is marked on the map to avoid any confusion. Destiny 2 players should make their way through the Salt Mines until they reach a transmat elevator. This same item was used in an early campaign mission during the Red War, simply go up to it and hold the interact button to activate a teleport....
The news comes as Hartsfield-Jackson, the busiest airport in America by passenger traffic, gears up for a potentially massive holiday travel season. The airport was previously the busiest in the world until COVID-19 brought things to a rapid halt. Delta has set a target date for the program’s launch in early November and plans to have the facial scanners in place until at least June 2022. The technology, which is the result of a partnership between Delta and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), will also aim to create a cleaner and more sanitary airport environment in the era of COVID....
Price, 81, represents a reliably Democratic district that includes liberal strongholds of Durham, Wake County and Chapel Hill, though the district could change in redistricting. In 2020, he was reelected with more than 67 percent of the vote. “I am announcing today that I will not seek re-election as representative for North Carolina’s Fourth Congressional District,” he said in a statement on Monday. “I do so with a profound sense of gratitude to the voters of the Fourth District; to the supporters who have backed me in 18 successive campaigns; and to my staff in Washington and the district, whose competence and dedication are responsible for the quality of representation and service I have been able to provide....
