The Solstice of Heroes armor, which is different for each class, can be upgraded three times. The first level, Renewed, is fairly straightforward, while the second, Majestic, is more difficult. Finally, players will be faced with five challenges in order to unlock the armor’s glowing ultimate form, Magnificent. This effect makes the armor set emanate white light, and can be completed even after the event has ended. RELATED: Destiny 2: Bungie Hints at Upcoming Changes to Currencies and Inventory...

Destiny 2: Strange Key Used (Magnum Opus) The first step toward using the Strange Key is to travel to Xur’s Treasure Hoard on Eternity. Once a Destiny 2 player has loaded into this area, they should use the portal to travel to the Valley and then head forward and slightly to the right. After walking for just a short time, players will encounter a group of strange rocks, which are at the bottom of a small slope, and this is where the Strange Key is to be used....

For the sake of the Destiny 2 community, Reddit user BoxOfRingsAndNails tested the efficiency of the Heavy Ammo Finder perk by equipping it, killing hundreds of enemies, then recording the results. The tests involved cruising around the EDZ, killing the same groups of Vandals and Dregs, making sure to keep heavy ammo reserves depleted and using all that drop. The goal was to see if equipping more than one Heavy Ammo Finder perk would make a significant difference....

Unlike the first Iron Banner, this month’s game mode will be Clash (or what is basically Destiny 2’s version of Team Deathmatch). Outside of the game mode changing from the first Iron Banner, however, the experience otherwise will be the same. Daily Challenges and a Milestone will offer rewards to the player, mainly in the form of tokens. Players will turn those tokens in to get an Iron Banner engram from Lord Saladin, where RNG will determine what Iron Banner gear a player receives....

While Osiris has become somewhat of a fan favorite character for fans, his questionable actions leading up to the finale of Season of the Splicer made his presence in Destiny 2 a point of concern. Many fans didn’t know whether or not they could trust him, and it all seems to come back to the off-screen death of his Ghost and struggle with the Hive. While it has since been revealed that Osiris after that time was Savathun in disguise, players shouldn’t take the Hive Witch Queen’s words to heart....

Speaking on the Kotaku Splitscreen podcast, news editor Jason Schreier attributed Destiny 2’s lack of character transfers to one source: Sony. According to Schreier, Bungie “wanted to do character transfers” between platforms but Sony “wouldn’t allow it.” As for why, Sony apparently “wanted people to associate Destiny with PS4.” Sony and Activision have maintained a close partnership through the lifespan of the Destiny franchise. This partnership resulted in Bungie providing significant amounts of exclusive content on Sony’s PS4 and extensive marketing efforts from Sony....

Nevertheless, there are those players who still wait patiently for Xur to arrive on Friday, and for those Destiny faithful we bring our regular report. If there are those players for whom Destiny has not lost its luster, who are we to deny them. This week, Destiny players can find Xur in the far back area of Tower South commonly referred to as the nightclub. Head to the right after spawning in, follow the path way through the Hangar, go underneath the Future War Cult advisor’s quarters, and continue on to the back until you see some couches....

The Warlock subclasses have some consistencies between them, but digging deep shows they really do what they do in different ways. For this list, let’s take a look at the Voidwalker subclass and how to get the most out of it in Crucible.

At PAX West, Destiny 2 game director Luke Smith detailed how exactly it works in regards to lore associated with weapons and armor. In Destiny 1, picking up an item like an exotic would unlock access to a Grimoire card, which would explain the history or tell a story about that exotic (players would have to go to the Destiny Companion app or website to read these virtual cards)....

Here is GameRant’s guide about how to prepare for Destiny 2: Shadowkeep. RELATED: Destiny 2 Year 1 and 2 Complete Collection on Sale to Prepare for Shadowkeep Stop Infusing Destiny 2 developer Bungie revealed that everyone will be auto-leveled to 750 Power when Shadowkeep launches. This is mainly due to the release of New Light, the free-to-play/lite version of Destiny 2 that is launching alongside Shadowkeep. Bungie wants new players to be able to jump into substantial content immediately instead of having to grind for tens of hours before being able to play with friends who may be experienced players....

There are multiple activities in Destiny 2 that players can undertake in order to earn Faction Tokens, which is the currency that players will want to focus on collecting. This guide will explain how many tokens players will get from each activity, plus recommend the most lucrative methods to gain loot and rack up tokens that go towards their faction winning the Faction Rallies. Activities That Give Faction Tokens Public Event: 4 tokens Heroic Public Event: 8 tokens Enemy Caches in Lost Sectors: 2-6 tokens Strikes: 5 tokens Nightfall Strike: 5 tokens Crucible match: 5 tokens Spire events: 1 token per spire secured Leviathan raid: awarded at each encounter, 16 total...

Normally, Seasons last around three months in Destiny 2, but with Season of the Lost being the longest Season in the game’s history, it’s only natural that its epilogue has yet to be revealed. Because Season of the Lost ties directly into the events of The Witch Queen, it’s plausible that the end of Season storyline will go places that forward the story and partially explain the basics of what’s going to happen next year in Destiny 2....

Summoning Ritual Challenge This week, the summoning ritual challenge is for the Kalli boss fight in Last Wish, which is the first encounter. It’s fairly simple to accomplish but Destiny 2 players will need to make sure they are slightly higher power level in order to pull everything off. Under normal circumstances, the raid fireteam must stand on 6 plates that correspond to 6 symbols (three pairs) hanging in the center of the room....

First, upon reaching the top of the observatory, Destiny 2 players should see a mechanism in the middle of a round room. There will be three glowing blue pressure plates around it. Stand on them, and the mechanism will start turning. After this happens, players will get a debuff dubbed “Vault Security Mechanism”, and once its timer runs out, players will be killed. Once all of the aforementioned actions have been completed, enemies will start to show up, and Guardians will need to clear out each and every one of them....

For years in Destiny 2, every season’s Iron Banner has had a one-time quest to unlock gear unique to that season. The quests have changed over time but until now, they were decently lengthy and had multiple parts to them. There’s only one step to it now, which makes it a lot easier to gauge how long it will take to finish. RELATED: Destiny 2 Season 11 Weapon Tier List...

In Destiny 2, golden destination chests will award destination tokens used to level up with the vendor on each planet. In addition to tokens, there’s a chance that chests can also contain Rare weapons, Legendary engrams, and even Exotic engrams. What players may not realize is that the planetary maps will lead them right to these chests, numerously spread out across each destination. Follow these simple steps to find and open them all:...

These chests only appear in the Heroic version of The Whispers, which unlocks on the Io map after completing the regular version. Completing the regular mission will reward players with the Whispers of the Worm exotic sniper rifle, which is the Destiny 2 version of Black Spindle (or more specifically its original incarnation the Black Hammer). Complete the Heroic Mission First Players will want to save the chests until they have run the Heroic version once already, since completing the quest for the first time grants players Whisper’s catalyst....

While Bungie never confirmed that Xur would be a part of Destiny 2, most fans figured (or at least hoped) that the Agent of the Nine would remain a part of the weekly routine. In Destiny 1, Xur showed up in a random spot from Friday the Sunday, selling exotic items in exchange for Strange Coins. However, although Xur is back for Destiny 2, Bungie has changed a few things with the way the exotic vendor works....

Hawkmoon is a returning Destiny 1 weapon and was initially acquired via a relatively lengthy quest in Destiny 2. It was comprised of two story missions with bits of grinding in between. The weapon is worthwhile despite being different from its original version.

Destiny 2 players are debating which subclasses should be prioritized for the next Light rework, with Solar 3.0 being a great candidate for Season 17 because of all the recent adjustments that have buffed Solar weapons like Skyburner’s Oath. However, there are a few good reasons why Arc 3.0 should be Destiny 2’s next update, especially seeing how Bungie has been testing a new spear-wielding mechanic with Season of the Risen....
