[@weaselprime8654]

The final Alt+Enter tip isn't a feature of Destiny. It's a feature of Windows.

[@jim-jim310]

The game’s soundtrack is not only an integral part of the experience but also contains hidden messages. For instance, the track “The Farm” includes a Morse code message that translates to “who watches the watchmen,” hinting at the game’s deeper lore and the vigilant role of the Guardians.

[@MetalOWLD2-lt7io]

Same with the nezarec glaive or helmet on Neptune.

[@cerealstudios]

7:47 this is one people forget, dawnblade is the name of the solar warlock subclass, daybreak is the super name :)

[@EightballHimself]

Another tip for people using T-Crash with shoulder charge, is that it also works really well if you use an eager edge sword right before casting T-Crash. Hope this helps!

[@oxrayxxx]

For the Shatterskating one, make sure you have Auto-Melee turned off. I didn't know that would stop you from activating it. Turned it off and boom, Shatterskating all over the place.

[@pathfinder2198]

What is even auto melee?

[@oxrayxxx]

@pathfinder2198 it let's you hold down the melee button, and it just melees forever.

[@gutterg0d]

@@oxrayxxx That sounds like a terrible idea, they should change it to melee until you release the button. 😉😉

[@viviolet7]

12:57 opening up the character screen first also lets you instantly open the director without holding tab! only fact i didnt know was voidspikes not working from a ceiling

[@alphtheor.879]

something I learned with the child is if a warlock with one shoots you and as the child travels even if you put down a ward of dawn it will still get inside. matched my actual rank 7.

[@luuduc8776]

17:16 it’s actually 4, when you use phoenix dive it does consume super energy as well (note: it does a cool animation when you use phoenix dive while daybreak is active). Also the super called “daybreak” 😂

[@CastleContent]

lol I said dawnblade didn't I... woops ha

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

I knew most of these I did not know about void spike grenades on the ceiling but it was kinda familiar so I probably heard it in passing but never registered it. I also didn't know about the other way to swap characters with f1 esc esc. I normally just hit esc then swap and if I cant do that then do it in the settings menu. I also didn't know number 15 thats kinda surprising I missed that. A tip that is not in the video that should be told to EVERY MnK player: Turn off aim smoothing in settings, however sometimes this doesn't actually turn it off, so you should go into the cvar file and set the value to 0. Another tip not in the video about sword flying, you can pull out your ghost instead of swapping weapons to reproc eager edge.

[@marvinvogtde]

One interesting little fact is that if you reflect enemy supers with arc staff in pvp you can unlock the associated triumph, I for one unlocked one of the nova bomb warlock triumphs while playing arc hunter

[@theangryotaku3361]

2:28 another fun fact(/nitpick): the spikes that Thorn shoots are actually larger than the gun itself in both length and diameter

[@CastleContent]

lol truuuue

[@Ryze2803]

Another fun thing to add for grapple melee is that it counts as both grenade AND powered melee damage for procs and bounties!

[@epicgaming11195]

4:30 make sure to have burst glide equipped for the maximum boost

[@OpinionatedCabbage]

You only get a limited pool of things you can favourite, was 50 last I checked. Ornaments and shaders share the pool, also, so any combination of either but 50 max. Finishers used to be favouriteable but aren't any more.

[@danw7760]

Awesome vid! Been playing since d1 and learned alot of new stuff, thanks 😊

[@Splooth_Sleeping_Battery]

3:40 you can also blink through it, if you're on warlock and hunter!

[@canews8971]

12:35 maybe I can teach you one… Faster than ‘changing character’ is to ‘turn off crossplay’ and then turn it back on immediately. It skips the entire having to select a character screen and instead just loads you into orbit. May only be a console thing but give it a try. You’ll likely never go back…

[@CastleContent]

Omg lol

[@vsm1456]

"May only be a console thing but give it a try" - You can't turn off crossplay on PC, and on Xbox you need to go deep down the console's menus, so not sure if it will be faster.

[@mercury9060]

for shatter/well skating, you can be any distance from the ledge AS LONG AS your eager takes you over the ledge. so the only timing that matters is space+shatter/well.

[@SyncroLive]

Well the only thing I didn't know was the void spike grenade, tho I dont think I have ever tossed it at a ceiling either. So I'll return the favor, some players still do not know that while you are on a sparrow with destabilizers, pressing your primary fire button will allow you to rotate your sparrow in mid air, if you perform a successful flip in any direction it will return 1 dodge's worth of energy back. The same happens if you use an emote while in the air before you land.

[@LavenderSystem69]

There's an amazing synergy between Ex Diris (specifically if you have the catalyst) and Mothkeeper's Wraps where, with the right set of mods, you can generate infinite moths without respect for ammo limitation or ability cooldown, you're permanently amplified, and you have a permanent void overshield. I lovingly refer to it as "Moth Breeder's Guild"

[@hal0justcal865]

Ty for your continued content. V helpful

[@byronwaddell4097]

3:50 you can also just use a eager edge sword and get over it when you hit the thing. All you have to do is jump when you hit it, pull eager edge out and use it (at least on hunter)

[@michaelschlefstein7360]

Another couple to add is when dealing with Taken, you can add a specific [Taken] weapon mod for them which adds damage. If you do not aim down weapon sites when targeting Taken they tend to split less. Great vid, knew most however learned a bunch so many thanks!!!!!!!!

[@shadyone6620]

I think that splitting is Taken Psions' equivalent of dodging, like Knights and many other mobs do. Mobs do dodge when you aim down sight on them.

[@devak45167]

Punching at boss slams to avoid getting launched is an amazing tip wow!

[@kleg8944]

This is the best use of ad placement. You’re smart as hell. Literally because of your use of ad placement I’m subbing

[@CastleContent]

Haha thank you, I genuinely love their shake.

[@grassy7209]

Lion Ramparts with Eager Edge x2 was so much fun!

[@iurirodrigues4568]

That Ctrl move was smart. I didn’t know you were gonna show the results after so you made me watch the whole thing 😅

[@epic_afk9333]

For the bigger cabal enemies like champions, you can actually shoot their backpack while being in front of them and it will still crit.

[@good_muffin]

the backpacks on incendiors are always a crit spot. I assume it is to compensate for the fact that incendiors don't have the typical cabal thrusters on their back which are the back crit for other cabal.

[@HardSarge]

Are you a lone wolf guardian ? When it comes to completing bounties asap, adjust your PS settings time (I advance it a month ahead) then load into any playlist activity, wait a minute and it will eventually load into . Then fulfill the bounty requirements. No other team mates taking kills away from you. Just remember to reset your settings time when your done for team activities.

[@Azulapus]

If you have enough room you also use eager edge to stop your momentum without swinging to save some ammo. Also helps if you dont have an ability to stop yourself.

[@darkdreems6523]

Not sure if everyone knows yet or cares but powerful attraction mod on your class item works for motes as well.

[@tikemyson4126]

Man this video is so useful I wish I’d seen this a few years ago

[@abh._.]

idk if you remember but I met you on the cistern when you were getting some clips for titan flying, and I love how the vid turned out. Amazing work

[@CastleContent]

Oh wow! I ended up getting better looking footage and didn't use that haha but thanks so much for stopping by! Was great meeting you up there.

[@abh._.]

@@CastleContentyea it was cool meeting you as well!

[@canews8971]

Videos like this take you to the pinnacle of d2 KZbinrs. It’s why I continue to recommend you, even more than others now. You’ve surpassed, well, everyone. Congrats! Thanks for the superior content. I’ve played since d1 and have learned a lot in this vid. Thanks!

[@ValiantNomad]

Lmfao watching that gathering storm vs arc staff interaction really made me laugh. Super'd himself

[@Andreas67335]

17:54 it’s crazy how much the game has changed over the years, while it made sense to remove match game for most activities you forget how much of an impact it had on builds

[@ZZCAR1]

I remember when kill tracker ghost was a pre-order bonus for vanilla D2

[@sansbrudi4264]

I love those vids❤

[@YourAverageLucario]

I got a good chuckle from the guardian ranks being reversed XD

[@minecraftagenttry]

another Castle has been found. Praise

[@_Lullaby15]

Interesting fact, if you have boots of the assembler equipped, you can stand in any anyone's else's rifts, and the exotic ability will still work. Even when you have a healing rift equipped and standing in an empowering rift. Either way, you just need to be in in a rift.

[@CtChocula_III]

18:36 Since it's a fun fact list, this segment only applies to PvE; the values of bonus damage for surges are DRASTICALLY reduced in PvP.

[@bryceroni328]

Have you discussed the difference in function for sliding between toggle crouch and hold crouch? The player first person model stays standing while in sliding if you tap slide and ads. You can head glitch every chest high piece of cover this way.

[@chrisart481]

Something I know that might've been said already in the comments, but is helpful is when pulling out your ghost to scan something like the warsat public event (hold x to scan) if you hold it and it does the animation, press the ghost button again and it skips the whole animation of scanning

[@RowletRissoto]

Btw you can slide on the dares of eternity launcher thing to go into that bottom hole.

[@lulpert1370]

Damn learned a lot thanks

[@tri700ns]

learned 5 new things. the gambit portal one tho, imma confuse tf outta my friends with that when we decide to play gambit again in about 76 years

[@royboy77777]

3:35 Ha! Masters of the blink know that you can simply ignore this puzzle. But, still good to know.

[@marosynth6434]

4:58 jumping on a sparrow isn't what fixes it exactly, simply closing and opening the map again does the trick just fine

[@jamstarx]

We need filters/search for all the gear. I would love to group my shaders by color or find all my smg's in one place. The companion apps are fine...but with so much ingame content, i want to be able to feel more organized. Great video

[@bio_the_manokit]

i missed one.... the one about the necrotic grips as i dont use warlock at all lol

[@getbeavered9313]

I don’t know if it really matters but I found that doing the skates can be done with different orders. Everyone seems to do heavy + jump + super, but I always do heavy + super + jump (both methods work, I guess I just got too used to the second one)

[@stitchjuju7512]

Shatter skating can also be done with no sword ammo. It does move you… a small amount. It’s great for practicing to get it right. I have never tested well skating without sword ammo though

[@Macchiavelie]

I don’t know if it’s the quality of the smooth edits, that you’re the “Arc Titan” guy in my head canon, or the fact that you just stick to the fun aspects of the game, but you get a view from me every single time. Keep it up champ.

[@CastleContent]

Thank you so much Macchiavelie. I’ve been having some mental struggles trying to find success during rough times in destiny, spinning my wheels a bit. Comments like this mean the world to me. Much appreciated.

[@bballballin21]

As a hunter main on controller there’s a slightly easier way to shatter skate on default controls. On a ledge just hold crouch, swap weapons, and jump and heavy attack.

[@thelordsergei]

Funny thing about the kill tracker ghost (at least for me) is that it has crucible kills display 0, my PvE kills are kept just not my PvP ones

[@marinaboy]

i didn't know 4 of them surprisingly I'm genuinely shocked lol

[@krystal7916]

The interceptor thing made my brain explode

[@Fynn-]

Berserker titan kills most supers aswell, I didn't knowbthe radar part where there higher or lower but knew the rest.

[@SevenMoth]

With skating, you can *technically* do it in all classes with all supers, just that it’s very finnicky (and not worth it most of the time) but still a fun fact

[@004947]

a more in-depth filter on system for the vault and shaders would be amazing, im probs a 6 since ive only been playing hunter since D2 release :D

[@realfake6669]

didn't know 2 things, the one with the small Titan barricade and the portal in the drill on the gambit map

[@TheMorrogoth]

#28 There are actually 2 portals. In the room that you come out of after jumping into the portal below the drill - If you look to the left on the wall - There is another portal that takes you across the map adjacent to where you enter the room from spawn (to the right of there).

[@good_muffin]

I think he was referring to that portal specifically as a secret portal because that one is hidden from plain view. Most people know about the other portals as most gambit maps have them.

[@wonderwhy1watch]

Whats the name of the phonk music you used? Or the music

[@NoyziNeighborz]

Subbed... love it! Chapter this vid, it was hard to roast my fellow guardians

[@hitsmegoodyo277]

Wait can you still blink thru the walls without losing the buff on crota end ??

[@imtableship1703]

That first tip would have made Vox Obscura a LOT easier

[@TrendingDetails]

Wow. I know there is a ghost that shows the tracker, I asked my friends but nobody knows how to or where to obtain it.... Thank you as you have showed me how to get it❤

[@Zap12101]

on #50 for titans if your tc is charged walk through pop your tc and fly over the wheel all together

[@skepticalmonkey7263]

The only one I didn't know was the Pike Dreg. I'm only guardian rank 7 though because I mostly pvp.

[@Imnottherealslimshady]

can you do the one that zavalr did it was about how in the menu you can see you and your fireteam doing the kings fall raid i want to know how she did it

[@iseefingers7171]

17:56 Titan thinks that this is a scout. As a warlock, I'm not gonna try to convince him, because we all know titans are the smartest.

[@CastleContent]

Lololol

[@richardmoo9066]

i saw where theres a second sreen in materials at Rahool. i do NOT have access to that screen. im a pc player. Why do I not have access to it?

[@Thatonescreeb]

I had to go my phone just so I could comment I loved how you didn't stop the video for a sponsor

[@MerpMonster]

You can cancel the sniper reload animation by sprinting right after you put the magazine into the gun… you can aim down sights but cant shoot for a second due the game thinking you are still reloading. Hope this helps anyone 👍

[@StormA7]

Castle, I click

[@_ghostly_]

Me see CatleContent, neural activation

[@YouAreAnIdiot109]

Yikes

[@Donkeykong-os2rx]

You know that ace of spades keeps your radar when a Gemini jester hunter dodges too

[@pch1370]

Can't belive that the only two things I didn't knew were a workaround to the glitched missing icon on the map and a Dreg with the wrong name in the Devil's Lair.

[@CastleContent]

Dayummm even the void spike nade bug eh. Snap!

[@mistrjt9213]

I’ve been tossing spike grenades into the ceiling since Destiny 1… until 5 seconds ago… 😁

[@Froowsy]

does he look like peeta melark from hunger games???????

[@samuelcallai4209]

Bro. You're so smart. That's the first ad I've seen in years since you used the dirty strategy of showing super interactions. Lol. Really, awesome quality videos, so glad I got your channel recommended to me

[@RedVanHarris]

Here is a fun necrotic grips one I discovered day1 of strand. Necrotic grips. Eat ur shackle nade. Through 1 melee spike. Sit back and watch ever get suspended and necrotic. 😍

[@RedVanHarris]

Works wonders in the coil. And also if u have a tricky spot in hard content ALWAYS keep 1 needle charge to go immune (into the void) using that aspect to survive that dirty murder chicken in the coil I always get last phase.

[@topesimoes]

18:00 that isn't actually a scout rifle but we get the point

[@vsm1456]

19:08 I find this tip a bit inaccurate. The limit you're talking about is simply distance of your ghost's scanner mods, it's not "sometimes" and isn't limited to snipers: aiming down sights increases the scan distance by your gun's zoom rate. 0:00 Not all tanks can be one-shot. The one you showed can, but the other two in this mission need two shots.

[@s-fang5520]

I'm guadian rank 10 with 400 raid clears (300 something fresh), 6/8 (available) raids flawless, almost every raid title, 3 solo dugeons, and I would've been rank 11 if I didn't have to solo GotD. I scored Guardian rank 6, but half of them were PvP related or stuff I never use, lol

[@epicgaming11195]

10:02 the letter i on the font you use seems to be messed up somehow

[@tomsa36]

Vanquisher as well as in the game :P

[@k7n204]

Nice

[@realsetokaibaja5111]

I noticed nobody now days looks at the radar just running like scurry rats in crucible 😂

[@liggmahnutz1213]

quickly taking out your ghost and putting it away will reset the Eager Edge timer

[@Florian.Hubold]

For the shader search function, use DIM - it's not the same as in game, but at least a possibility. If you're in orbit or in a social space you can even equip the shader directly from DIM. And for Alt+Enter, that's a default windows shortcut, this is nothing special to Destiny ;)

[@cheredonlanz5443]

The changing character things works as a quick Fix for entering the wrong activity. But bungee also specifically said not to do it because it Mix the people that are in there with. You have to wait even longer to drop well somebody else joins. I've been on the receiving end of this too much

[@SlimeyZockt]

Let's see, 1. Thing I didn't know, Spike Nades not working on ceiling (wait for real?) 2. Baby Barricades don't stop waveframes (I don't use wave frames that often) 3. Map indicator can reappear when riding a sparrow (always wondered how I could get it back) 4. The fans in the tower (here I thought I knew everything) 5. That one Pike Dreg Gary (did he get demoted?)

[@timothystander4892]

Wow. My knoweledge level and in game rank are in sync at 6

[@byMystiic]

i only didn't know the last one xD

[@sevgiamikertash6823]

lol , whenever i try no 1 , i die immediately since my vehicle is already damaged !

[@dustclothcrusader7934]

There where 3 that I didnt know at all, and one that I kinda knew so rank 9.5 I guess

[@jackoneill2591]

You know when you're talking about 4:03 what does xbox 1's fps

[@jackoneill2591]

​@CastleContent

[@CastleContent]

30 fps yep

[@72823m]

i don’t watch castle for destiny, i watch castle for castle
