are they increasing the power cap again

[@RAPIXDREG]

I can already see the nova bomb spam again the horrors no NO NO NOOOO

[@stephenagnewii3325]

“Somehow Oryx returned!” ..makes it even funnier that there’s actually gonna be a Star Wars crossover lol

[@223Drone]

The stormtrooper cosmetic will have a hidden debuff of 200% reduction in weapon accuracy.

[@thatoneguy1553]

Titans: I see this as a win

[@GuidoFernandez-i8w]

At least Hunter's got death trooper Which are pretty good at accuracy

[@pdh9627]

😂

[@shockman2178]

I remember when they showed the key art “the first thing that probably catches your attention is Oryx in the background” Nope what caught my attention was all the tentacles

[@VAwitch]

Same.

[@FRED98hunter]

“Anti-barrier pistol have not been seen in years”.... Season of the wish Anti-barrier pistol 😔👍🏻

[@goatcat2737]

I can't say specifically why but I fucking love anti-barrier sidearms. maybe just because it's an excuse to use sidearms

[@887Bingo]

Honestly, pistols don't make sense. Especially the 9mm ones. They should replace all standard pistols with rocket pistols.

[@chrisfabbri9535]

that was 2 years ago........years as in more than 1.

[@lxstphxraoh8969]

I’m excited to see how the story prepares us for frontiers, I saw a post on Reddit claiming they saw a cutscene involving the sun exploding? Idk how legit that is. I just hope frontiers is all we need it to be, it’d be nice if we visit torobatl to help caitl restore it. I wondering if there’s anywhere Proto hive may still reside. Or happen across some ecumene ruins. Maybe see the hex’s home binary star system. Mostly though I hope heresy sets up xivu and adds more dimension to her character if we’re not defeating her. Maybe see her create her own inside out throne world through the echo. Echos abilities aren’t just for the wielder. Fikrul restored skolas. Eramis cured mithrax. Ghost of oryx revives xivus throne? Lots of hype lots of hope for this final episode

[@ayokmschangedhisname4393]

can you link that?

[@deathkage779]

I also would like a link

[@houseflygames]

Everything seems good, still somewhat feels like they playing safe, only downside was oryx returning in some form.

[@beeman4266]

Eh, Oryx is the best character they've ever made. This is definitely a "break glass in case of emergency" situation. The hive related seasons/expansions have always performed the best. Oryx coming back in a way like Riven sounds good. Especially if we gain the role of the navigator. Taking up that role with Oryx's blessing would be pretty cool.

[@nappy6806]

[@damsdee2214]

I do wonder if Sloanes taken corruption will be a segway into her eventually mastering it to the point of teaching fully, therefore giving us that last subclass…

[@DrIvoRobotnik1991]

Drifter would be a big part in that.

[@ionizedactor3994]

With the Drifter around, he'd probably be the first guardian ,other than Sloan and our guardian, to acquire it

[@sheogallvoidgazer2423]

Especially given that it kinda should be ours by right already, according to the sword logic...OH but this would be good to bring back Toland too!

[@umbratilicious15]

i hope so, but i saw people saying that it wouldn't make sense for it to be a subclass because it's not an element?

[@awesomeguy9513]

For the dread it’s gotta be just a random big boss looking guy but it could be nezerac pulling the strings, nezerac is still floating around and could be whispering to some of the dread to gain influence over them and the powers of the echo could grant him a new body. As for the dreadnaught making the echo hard to get this could be related to the echo. From the image we do see a ghost of oryx and the dreadnaught us made from akka the worm oryx killed so my guess is one of them or both are kinda manipulating the dreadnaught to get the echo in a certain spot or maybe give it to someone when the time is right

[@Banana-Boi]

Nezarec as the Dread leader would be peak.

[@nullandvoid7524]

We just had Nezerec last Episode, Rhulk could be back somehow, or we killed a clone of him in Vow. They just said a powerful Dread is trying to get the Echo.

[@עילםרוזנפלדהכהן]

If you sew closely you will see they also change the taken models(d1 captain to d2 captain and exetera)and their simbol also changedband their name start with "Dire" and taken knights spawn with swords

[@dcrockett8605]

I kind of wish all three episodes took place at once. The chaos would be fun.

[@mereumxkomugi780]

The warlock star wars fit is straight 🔥🔥🔥

[@princephillip1481]

Yep 🫡

[@SoSedatedSoSecure]

Man, nothing will ever beat that first Vault of Glass clear, when I got my Vex Mythoclast, and made my friends so freakin’ jealous, as they saw me melt away other players in PvP. The best of times… Let Oryx die already and give me back my Universal Remote shotgun. I took so many names with that thing… xD

[@MT-qo6xl]

That exotic submachine gun looks awesome 😊 ! Can’t wait to try it 😤 The SW royal guard ornament for warlock looks great, my only concern is how will the shader look on it 🤔 ?

[@trypticon8619]

I’m assuming the reason Oryx’s spirit has returns is due to the dreadnaught being his throne world, and with the echo landing there, it could have revived a lingering essence left in the throne world or the very throne world itself

[@blackedoutforlife6547]

That's true. Considering the fact The Mindbender in Forsaken had his own throne world that we destroyed and Rhulk having spoken of using the Upended to destroy Savathûn and her throne world. Oryx created the Dreadnought through pulling his Throne World into reality, with the Dreadnought still existing it proves that Oryx must still have some consciousness within the planes of the Dreadnought. The Taken King will never truly be gone

[@CheeZbredDawG]

Also I’ll finally be able to complete my mad scientist stormcaller warlock with the class item of the starwars set, been waiting for a bond the looks spiky with electric effects. Looks pretty good

[@Shadow-r7e]

One theory I pitched was orxy would return somehow happy I was correct. Dreadnaught looks incredibly good in it’s true form

[@Anchor-Supreme]

Interested in that trace rifle, seems like it’s moreso a debuff-spammer than direct damage-dealer.

[@CDcooper3876]

A stormtrooper skin would be appropriate the way I’ve been shooting lately 😂

[@EvzAKAsweedy]

First thing im going to spend money on is the star wars stuff. Looks awesome.

[@ELEMEXT]

We need a light saber sword

You had me. At wielding taken powers and magic, been long over do!!! That throne been ours

[@cambal5640]

What if devour is on, do you still get your health back ??

[@superninja21620]

We got oryx back before getting wrath in d2

[@Darryd]

Soo... is the Dreadnaught not going to be a patrolable area? or only in this Nether gamemode?

[@devinthierault]

Yes it's both they said

[@blackedoutforlife6547]

It'll be similar like the leviathan in Season Of The Haunted, you can load directly into the activity or away from the activity and roam to where you want

[@lxstphxraoh8969]

LETS GOOOO THANK YOU EVAZE, ONE OF THE BEST CREATORS OUT THERE

[@CheeZbredDawG]

I’m curious about the damage resistance boon, if I transmog my armor would it still count. I hate how these type of benefits only work on armor that throws off my build specs that I spent time to get…

[@andersbylund2753]

Would have been cool if they included tracerifles in partical deconstruct, would have been fun to get a tracerifle-meta

[@nanka806]

Maybe im reading too much into this, but- In the stream there were several voice lines from drifter and i didn't understand a word because of devs talking, but he sounded upset, several kines back to back. He's usually cheerful and has few lines in a serious tone, so that seems very odd Is there a reason for it or am i just crazy

[@ghstproject]

I can't wait to go back to a location I already visited 10 years ago only to farm weapons I already farmed 5 years ago doing this new activity that feels like any other activity in the game! Better Devils version 109 here I come to claim you and your brand new super special perk that grants bonus damage after a kill that is not called kill clip this time but now its super epic reload clip instead! What a fun game!

[@chaosshadow9000]

Oryx is the echo. If you pay attention you’ll see that all are the past enemy.

[@Gjallarhorn420]

Star Wars actually makes sense, but where's my mando set

Hey, I just got back into Destiny 2 since the first and a half year, I wanted to ask, do I have to BUY this episode to participate in it?

[@michaelbarnes25]

Yes you have to buy the latest content to play. That's unfortunately how the gaming industry works

[@antrepeyous]

@michaelbarnes25 alright, thanx, I suppose it's gonna depend on how much it is for me.

[@michaelbarnes25]

@@antrepeyous Yeah that's generally what I recommend these days when it comes to Destiny. I tend to enjoy most of what they do so I buy the annual pass, but I understand that many people are upset with the game atm. Just give it a week or so and see what people are saying and make a decision then. Maybe you'll find you actually like what's going on!

[@damsdee2214]

They were cryptic about getting the exotic smg… it is obviously going to be from the new dungeon. Unless they actually gonna keep some of it secret and we may get more exotics than announced

[@umbratilicious15]

could be the exotic mission too maybe?

[@TheForgottenStag]

Just want the exotics and aspects to be on prismatic and be good and fun

[@cahillrebel]

I think Oryx is only back because of the echo since it’s an echo of past events. I guess anyway. No doubt this episode will tease to us the next big threat. We think the Witness was the big bad but I don’t think we really understand who that is really. The Witness was another pawn and even he couldn’t understand that.

[@bait644]

Dreadnaught patrol????? Ok. I'll try this game for a little.

What i hate is the fact we only got 3 Episodes and hten yesterday bungo dropped a bombshell that we're not getting new exotic armor like......wtf you mean less seaons so less armor...frontiers better have additional ones

[@snakegobrrr9209]

titans got shafted this time in the armor department

[@wolfofumbra8332]

Is it just me or is anyone else mad that titans got the basic stormtrooper armor set while hunters got the death trooper? Why couldnt they get a bounty hunter set and we get the Death trooper armor? The Royal Guard fits the warlocks tho, good for them.

[@thatoneguy1553]

Makes sense because titans share one tiny brain cell and proceed to punch

[@tylerferrel3965]

bro they really made titans a basic storm trooper the class favoritism has never been louder. seriously missed opportunity could have made hunter a mandalorian and at least made titan a death trooper

[@twiddle1441]

Fr the hunter armor sucks tbh and the Titan armor is pretty mid

[@IveBeenWithBruma]

If i were to guess it will have something to do with Willbreaker's crystal.

[@umbratilicious15]

willbreaker's crystal? what's that

[@IveBeenWithBruma]

@umbratilicious15 The sword Willbreaker is Oryx's weapon to power the Dreadnaught.

[@iRxyanDestinygtaandmoreL]

Ik the idea is farfetched but i really want oryx to come back as an ally

Ironically, he's probably fans of us if the Ghosts of the Deep armor is anything to go by.

[@EdensRe]

I fw the warlock but it looks like an inquisitor or guard they should’ve went og sith og clone trooper brute on the titan and and an alien from the lore such as the father of the force it’s cool don’t get me wrong but the vast lore/world like even a maul since the og sith were of the lineage would’ve had a more creative touch kind of feels like the this a pull on the recent movies instead of it altogether

[@shadowwatts3473]

Will they eventually give some free silver in the season pass? Like fortnite or c.o.d.?

[@darkfallenmage1]

I'm guessing 1 Titan in ever 300 team to do contest mode.

Raid shadow legends crossover incoming guys, get hyped for more dailies, weeklies and a lot of new chores to do to tick off the reward boxes everyday gamers. Damn were turning into virtual factory workers.

[@Ranger74352]

Hey Evaze, would you be willing to make a video talking about how badly they’re nerfing the class exotic glaives? I don’t know if you noticed when you were making your video about all the changes in Heresy, but they’re basically nerfing them by 50%, doubling the number of hits required to charge the special shots from 3 to 6. Even with the situational ability to charge them with melee hits, risking death for a slightly faster charge time compared to 6 shots, it’s still a pretty massive nerf that will cut the power of these glaives almost in half. The tiny compensation buffs they’re giving the glaives alongside these nerfs don’t even come close to making up for what they’re losing. Since Bungie only listens to KZbinrs and streamers, it would mean a lot to the people who actually like these glaives if you could help draw attention to how badly they’re about to be gutted.

[@fridaysatjons1097]

Circle gun op.

[@Sean_288]

The Star Wars Crossover for the titan is so underwhelming. Coulndt they do a cool clone trooper like Republic Commando?

[@alexou857]

I feel like Bungie or the dude who’s in charge of designing activities will dip their toes in something new, and if it receives positive feedback that something will be used in every season until the majority player base notices and then they panic and repeat the process again.
