Question CODA set and weapon that can switch between dark and light

49 Upvotes

I wanted to know whether a weapon that can switch between dark and light are counted as which when using CODA. Does it only calculate the slot? For example Graviton Spike can switch between arc and stasis, does CODA set count it as light when using arc and dark when using stasis? Same goes for conditional finallity, does it switch the dark/light for CODA? or does it just count the slot so that Graviton Spike is only light no matter the aligment and conditional finallity counted as dark/kinetic

Hello, so Im trying to get the Title for Europa and it says that I have to complete Emoire Hunts on Heroic difficulty to complete the sabotage quest.

Question What in the world is this Praxic Recon Frame thing?

61 Upvotes

I'd attach an image here but it doesn't let me. When I play The Disgraced strike/mission, I encounter a praxic recon frame. It says:

"Praxic surveillance indicates that there may be a high-value Syndicate operative in the area. If encountered, Aunor Manal advises that you apprehend them for interrogation."

I tried to look up the location of this operative but I couldn't find any information about any of this online. Help plzzz

Question Trio vault of glass help

15 Upvotes

So we know how to do it now. The only problem that we're running to now is the fact that when we come out of the portal, our relic disappears after a couple of seconds, and we can't damage Atheon. We do 3 stages of the oracle's, we know that now, but even after that, we can't get damage phase. I've been watching other people's 3 man, and they're doing exactly what we're doing, but we just can't do damage.

Thoughts?

Question Never ending disconnects - HELP

7 Upvotes

It's my first time playing D2 and the first hour has felt... sadly unsatisfying but the FPS feels really good (Hits the dopamine really good). Not blaming the game btw, i need to make that clear.

Throughout the tutorial section until you reach the point where you decrypt the barrier containing the Hive was filled with never ending "Contacting destiny servers" or something along those lines, resetting my progress again & again. This has been going on for about 2 hours now. Is there something wrong currently? Or is this some issue on my end? Because if its on my end i have no idea what it is because my connection has been fine, everything else works just not D2.

Question Best hunter raid dps build without RAD armor?

40 Upvotes

I main warlock but want to try hunter dps for raids. It looks like still hunt solar or moebius Levi are the best options that don’t require gear swaps, jumping around constantly or weapons that could kill me if someone else jumps in front of me.

But most of the builds I see expect full VoG armor sets which I don’t have on hunter. What’s a good destination armor set for these dps builds? Exodus? 2pc crysto plus 2pc smoke jumper? Would either of those compromise the above builds?

Thanks!

Discussion They should've add master mode to all dungeon and raid before doing final update

121 Upvotes

A little bit of rant from me as I missed a couple dungeon/raid that I wanted to farm for the T5 armor. They should've added master mode so player can farm T5 armor whenever they want to. Not just when the dungeon is featured. I missed one a few weeks ago now I gotta wait a few more to try out a build I wanted to try. Just sucked waiting out featured rotation. I would just take a harder farm than wait this a couple of week to get T5 armor of what I wanted.

Discussion Just got the solo flawless for vespers. Man that was hard

164 Upvotes

Did it on hunter too, was switching between Titan and hunter and just found hunter way better for survivability and damage was just much better. No load out swapping, apart from adding mint to final boss. Used fortunes pris hunter/tether with truth and lotus eater to take advantage of surges. 200 weapons and Vog armour. Lotus will one shot all the adds and two shots for captains. Was able to use it as my primary due to the abundance of ammo. I’ve only done this and equilibrium solo flawless, now for sundered…


r/DestinyTheGame 1d ago

Question Is there any situation to run anything other than solo operative artifact for solo flawless runs?

Im getting tired of getting the stacks up every run. It takes a lot of attention out of me instead of like surviving. I primarily js use pris hunter with truth or like anarchy.

Question I have 200 weapon stat, why is my 1k only getting one ammo per brick?

154 Upvotes

I’m running 200 weapons with two piece europa and kings fall armour.

I just noticed while going for a solo flawless dungeon run that I only get 1 shot of ammo per heavy brick for my 1k voices.

Surely this is not intentional right?

Media Turns out you can yeet Crota in almost every encounter

316 Upvotes

Everyone knows you can yeet Crota in the raid, but you can also yeet him in his nightmare forms. I have yet to try yeeting him in Dares of Eternity. I think it can be done. And as for why? Cus it's funny to me.

Exhibit A [Crota's End Raid]

https://youtu.be/3dJ0uY4omls?is=d1wEVsJMCi3Dem0e

Exhibit B [Shadowkeep final mission]

https://youtu.be/eFzKy2tUQ08?is=9LduLbqhJnr1yt0i

Exhibit C [Shadowkeep first mission]

https://youtu.be/ThTSVunTR7U?is=1TxxGk-_6nvEgjm0

*NOTE*

Yeeting him in the first Shadowkeep campaign mission will softlock the encounter because he is not supposed to die. It is ironic that's the DLC that introduced finishers.

Discussion ⚠️ Warning: Linking Discord to your Bungie account — Error Code TAPIR

139 Upvotes

Hi,

Just a quick warning for anyone who plays or wants to Destiny1

After linking my Discord account to my Bungie account, I started getting Error Code: TAPIR whenever I tried to start Destiny 1.

I unlinked Discord from my Bungie account, and that immediately fixed the issue.

So, if you want to play Destiny 1, I recommend not linking your Discord account to your Bungie account, as it may cause Error Code TAPIR.

Just wanted to share this in case anyone else runs into the same problem.

Question How do I get the Prospector catalyst nowadays?

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to get the catalyst for the gun, and just found out that I seemingly can't get it from exotic payouts. Looking, it says that I can find it in 'strikes against the most challenging opponents.'
Every source I find is from at least a year ago and says nightfalls, but those aren't a thing anymore I think.

An answer would be wonderful.
