Updated on August 5, 2024, by Anastasia Maillot: The Final Shape has been out for some time now, as has the first Episode, Echoes. With all this new content, three new seals have been added into the mix: Intrepid, Iconoclast, and Transcendent. The general theme in Destiny 2 has been to bring back challenge into the game, and two of these new seals align with that philosophy perfectly, with Iconoclast being one of the toughest seals to complete thanks to the innate complexity of Salvation’s Edge. With The Final Shape, older seasonal Triumph seals have also been retired, instead making way for Episode triumph seals. Here’s how these three new seals have rattled the ranking of all the existing o
The new Lightfall expansion seal, Virtual Fighter, deals with all things concerning Neomuna . Although Neomuna’s patrol space has been deemed quite hard to survive in, the triumph page only has nine triumphs for players to complete, out of which completing a campaign mission on Master difficulty is the hardest
Guardian Games were the last event to receive its own Triumph seal, and it certainly isn’t an easy one. In fact, one could argue that due to the requirement to participate in Supremacy, the event’s trademark PVP game mode that pits classes against one another, it’s the toughest event-centric Triumph seal to acqu
Critical Anomaly arguably brings more utility than any sniper rifle before it. Not only is this a great weapon for dealing damage — with just about every boss damage perk one could want — but it is also the first of Destiny 2’s Sniper Rifles to roll with Chill Clip. This allows players to stun Overload Champions in a single shot by applying Slow to them, and stun Unstoppable Champions in at least two shots of the sniper by applying Freeze, which will stun them and deal outgoing damage when Shattered by any other wea

Previously, the store was relegated to the Tower and completely skippable. That’s no longer the case as Bungie has slapped the storefront into the Director, a menu players need to frequently bring up.Since the release of Destiny 2, monetization has been a thorn in all player’s sides. Though Bungie tweaked it to be fairer, players still resented the idea that Bungie was selling a $49.99 Season Pass with microtransactions on top of it all while asking players to pay up front to get the game.

Maahes HC4 is one of the best Legendary Hand Cannons in the elemental slot. This is thanks to the fact that the Heavy Burst archetype is so good. On top of this, it also has some really good perk combinations. The gun has four different reload perks in both columns, as well as Destabilizing Rounds, and Repulsor Brace for solid Void builds.

The Moon, a vanilla Destiny 2 Spoils of Conquest location, never got its fair shake back in 2014. Unlike the other areas in the game, it was easy to finish off the Moon sections and then never come back. In Shadowkeep, Bungie has made it a location players will want to keep visiting. Though the design is familiar, the studio has done quite a bit to make it more visually appealing. Giant chasms have torn the landscape asunder, new caves have opened up never-before-seen locations and an enormous Hive citadel looms large over the horizon. Adding to the spookiness of the locale are Nightmares of fallen Guardians, whose silhouettes replace the standard Patrol Beacons. It’s clear a lot of compassion went into bringing back the Moon and transforming it into a place players want to visit.
Technically, Bungie didn’t lie about this. Players all got their packages and their armor was available in all of its resplendent glory, but what they didn’t know was how awful the stats on every piece of armor would be. On average, Solstice armor stats sat anywhere from 20-30% weaker than high-tier armor, thus rendering it completely useless for endgame content. Like clockwork, the community was appalled at this decision. Many had spent a great deal of time, effort, and even money to acquire the exact looks they wanted from Solstice.

The new free-to-play experience is meant to get players on the sidelines in the door for the first time. Despite this, this free experience actually comes with a lot of content.
