Announcement Announcement: relaxed moderation ending

280 Upvotes

Hey all, it's been about a month and a half since the news was dropped regarding D2's final content update and we loosened up a bit on moderating the content of the subreddit. It's been fun, shitposts and rants have been had, and the ongoing game traffic is just awesome to see.

In the interest of ensuring content on the subreddit is original, informative, and/or of appropriate quality, we'll be ending the period of relaxed moderation effective immediately. While we're going back to stricter enforcement of the rules, the relaxed moderation period has given the mod team some ideas on rule reworks.

To reiterate some constant points:

  • Be kind to your fellow Guardians and redditors; toxicity will not be tolerated
  • For LFG purposes, we encourage you to look at r/Fireteams or Discord resources so as to not dilute posts here
  • Mark spoilers appropriately, especially considering the notable number of new players coming in with Monument of Triumph
  • AI-generated content is strictly forbidden on this subreddit and will be removed

The team will continue to moderate as always, as well as internally discuss any improvements we can make; we want this place to be a resource and community for Guardians so long as you all want it to be.

As someone who has a vivid memory of rushing through an AP English Lit essay to log in on D1 launch day back in 2014, which led to an ungodly amount of in-game time across both games over the next decade, I want to close out by echoing the previous post and say this game would not have become what it is without the community, the camaraderie we shared, the gods we slayed together, and all the memories and friends made. I'm looking forward to seeing all you fellow Guardians online for the foreseeable future.

Per audacia ad astra.

Lore The Nine - Representations as Pits and Eyes

Post image
820 Upvotes

This could have been a bit of a theorising post about what the Nine really look like, but there's not much to theorise on now. I did this once before with Nezarec, but I really appreciate ways in which the Nine have been portrayed directly or their overall design language has appeared.

There are a few examples I have missed out such as the tentacles on the Dreadnought in Heresy and the ribbons in Prophecy/SRL.

Another day and more great shaders. Decent cosmetics. Another lucky day for me I get to save some brightdust woohoo!

Tomorrow's video will be a few hours later than normal. Around 5ish ET. Sorry.

Thank you all for all the love and feedback. You guys rock! If anyone's looking to game it up, hit me up and/or check my profile. I'd love to get a raid team of sherpas put together. I already help others learn dungeons and other content but a full team of people helping others out would be really awesome.

See you all tomorrow.

Question Is the GOTD final boss being damageable after the DPS phase ends a known bug?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

233 Upvotes

was running GOTD to get some armor today and i was somehow able to continue damaging the boss after the DPS phase ended.

still not sure what caused and havent done the encounter again to test it further, my current guess is that either 1k caused it or i somehow ended up getting the memory glitch that ppl are using to solo queenswalk without noticing it.

Question What weapon sounds the best in your opinion?

For me, I love the sound of Xenophage. It just has so much weight and power behind every shot ringing out that I can't get out of other weapons.

Gameplay / In-Game Video Secret jump pad to no where

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Upvotes

In the new Quantum Circuit SRL map, just at the start of the race I found a hidden path. My guess is its cut content from a potential alternate route.

As far as I can tell the invisible jump pad at the end of the ribbon functions like the other lifts in the game. Irrelevant of your angle or speed of entry it will guide you and your sparrow on a pre-determined trajectory.

Armor is still restricted by slot (can't have two helmets) and of course you'd be sacrificing any 4-piece set bonus (oh no).

What broken combos can you think of?

Question I might be insane but are some ghost armor mods broken?

Post image
56 Upvotes

Ive been grinding lost sectors specifically with Specialist Armorer on, but it feels like I get more Bullwark and Skirmisher armor than anything else. Ive been grinding for hours and have only gotten two to drop that are even usable, am I just that unlucky or is this something that I'll have to deal with until the end of time now?

P.S. - I know its just a chance buff, not a guarantee. But I've been farming sets for all 3 of my characters since the final update released and this is the first time Ive had this much of a snag with the rng with these armor spec mods, so I figured this one specifically had to be bugged. Maybe I'm just that unlucky though, or I guess lucky for not running into this sooner.

Discussion Why is Pantheon so unwelcoming and toxic to new/returning players?

Upvotes

I come from playing this game for 5+ years and in that time I never did any raids or dungeons cause I couldn't afford the keys and PS Plus. Now that Monument of Triumphs has come out I've been back in the game for around 2 months. In that time I have managed to run/learn every dungeon and a sizeable chunk of the raids however everytime I try and find folks who will teach any of the Pantheons I get ignored because everyone is so focused on just doing it with people who know what they're doing. Plus the amount of times I've seen "bring xyz loadout or kick, know what to do or kick, one phase or kick". Why is it so unwelcoming to those who haven't done those raids when they existed in game and toxic to those who don't run meta?

Question Equilibrium Final Boss Health Gate?

71 Upvotes

Last night, my crew was running Equilibrium. We compelled all 5 umm, echos or whatever they're called in the taken world. Each time we were able to shoot a blight ball on the wall, we did so.
We got to the DPS phase, dropped the final ball behind the boss and laid into him. Very quickly we dropped his health 50% and he gated.

What did we do wrong? This isn't the first time we've DPS'd this boss and seemingly had the phase stop early. I have to assume it's some mechanic we don't know about, but it's been incredibly frustrating.

I'm hoping the good people on reddit can help us out.

We had a Chaos Reach Warlock, Cuirass Titan, HoN Hunter.

Basically the title. I was just in regular patrol yet those popped out of nowhere. As far as I know, there are no Scorn on Kepler but tell me if I'm wrong.
