Tizz out here doing God's work for new/returning players! With regard to the stat distributions when focusing armor...it's still the same. If, for example, you've equipped the Discipline Armorer mod, either a.) You'll get 10+ in Discipline, and 10+ spikes in TWO of the top three, or b.) You'll get 20+ in Discipline, and 20+ in ONE of the top 3.

[@itztizzle]

Ahhhhh gotcha. Thanks for the clarification!

[@PatrickMatherne]

Should add to go to Ikara and get Sunshot/Graaviton Lance

[@00WeaponX00]

OMG! This is just what I needed. I just returned to the game 2 days ago. I don't know where to start, but that changed with this excellent video. Don't worry about it being none scripted. You explained things very well sir. Facts. Now I just need to find people to play with. You gave me, and hopefully others things to focus on. This is a must watch video. Thank you!!

[@alekseisomaitre]

great video, thank you. any chance you can drop a video possibly discussing mods this season? as that can be an area of confusion for new or returning players

[@blitzboy2934]

I’ve decided to return after having a PC for a while and getting some of the dlcs from a friend. Thanks for this video :)

[@digitaldogs233]

Damn this was so helpful, thanks, i was getting to a point that i didn't know what was important, so thanks, real helpful 👍🏻

[@csnation]

There isn't enough time to unlock everything. But I would suggest trying to unlock deep sight focusing ASAP for weapons or armor. With any luck you can deep sight focus hopefully at least 3 red borders of your choice, if you start now at reset. Then the rest you gamble your luck with the daily activities. The only issue is that Witch weapons are tied with cards for deep sight focusing, but I found summoning pools can drop 2 red borders rather frequently, so there is that.

[@marty101able]

Thx for the quick rundown

[@bonsang1073]

I came back to Destiny in december 2022, did all the campains in order and seasons from The Deep onward, earned everything from exotic rotator, sank about 2200 hours in the game yet i have only 4 dungeons and one raid completed. The amount of content in that game is insane, i wish i had come back earlier. PS if you focus engrams of defiance at the war table in recovered leviathan engrams, you'll get throne-cleaver sword wich is one of the strongest sword in the game imo.

[@ryanomara9727]

Just returned to destiny after a year or so out and this has helped a lot thanks.

[@jordanwhitehead4980]

You're welcome 👍

[@lukecharvetto129]

Any suggestions for farming defiant engrams and keys? Really struggling to get them to drop and I want that armour!

[@williamoneal5508]

The vast majority of new players are not gonna buy the light fall annual pass just to get Defiance engrams when the previous years season content is disappearing in like a month

[@purplejoe47]

New player here. I’m sure it’s very dependent on other factors, but will the weapons outlined in this video help me with legend lost sectors? I’m trying to get exotics to start making builds but I’m struggling to be successful with the lost sectors. Idk where to start.

[@timnelson3431]

There's 21 days left in the season. They are letting you get 21 red borders for each season each day until then and you have 6 weapons in each place on the helm which means you won't be able to get them all. You can't specify "Scatter Signal" when going for your daily guaranteed red border so I would go with the mindset of "if you get it, then cool, if not, it really doesn't matter". I'd even argue that you don't need to craft them yet so don't even worry about the materials. I'm in the same boat in that I've gotten back recently wanted to get red borders since a few months ago and found it extremely frustrating that they were so rare to drop so I kinda gave up on it until this last announcement. Either way, really... don't even worry about it. See, they will release more weapons and I'd say those onslaught weapons are better than my few crafted ones and onslaught is fun to do. The Apex Predator is great to have so I'd do those Rivan's Wishes quests from Mira and with that you can specify getting the Apex Predator so it can be a guarantee. The game shouldn't be stressful and they make it seem like you only have a couple of weeks to prepare. Your play style matters more than 15% extra damage and people on ItzTizzle's level are the ones who mostly look for that additional damage perks but if you're like me, you probably want perks that help you play better. Auto loading holster, reload speed, slice (damage reduction from enemy), dynamic sway reduction, will probably help you a lot if you don't have the game mechanics down. For example on this one. itzTizzle pointed out that bait and switch on the apex predator was the god roll and it certainly is, but you need to shoot each weapon once within a timeframe to proc it. I'd say go for bipod instead. That way you get 4 shots, giving you more chances in case you miss and you don't need to think about switching and shoot, switch and shoot etc. It kinda makes the game a bit more difficult. But again, if that's your aim and not a terrible player like me, then ignore my whiny comment. Game mechanics. This is by far the most frustrating things for new players (as I am one) in my opinion. Why are these enemies immune to all damage?!? Oh you need to stand in this orange circle that you can barely make out on your screen. Your best bet is to watch some videos on the various activities you want to do because not understanding the mechanics kills the fun of this game and you will never know the mechanics when playing with multiple people because everything happens so fast and the other guys in your random group just want to finish the task. To be honest, itzTizzle, if there was a video that us newbies could absolutely use and I cannot find a guide anywhere that explains and shows the mechanics of each encounter in onslaught. There's a bunch of "tips and tricks" for legend mode which, no thanks, I'm not even going to try that. I had to find the "orange circle" for immune damage in the comments on a video in order to figure it out. It's one of those "everybody knows it" kinda things. Perhaps it's just me though, I can accept that. Thanks for the video!

[@sirjamjam101]

it’s definitely just you. these thing have been game mechanics for a while and it’s supposed to be something to make it a little more challenging. but as for the red borders you have 21 days, so 4 weapons from each place which is all you need. just get the red borders you don’t have to craft it yet

[@timnelson3431]

@@sirjamjam101 "these things have been game mechanics for a while". See I can appreciate that however, for someone new, it's not intuititve and it's just one of those kind if irritating things for new players to come into where everyone expects you to just know about it because it's been that way for a while. For the red borders, you can't specify the weapon so you can't get 4 weapons of your choosing. You still have to rely on RNG to get them since it's "a random weapon you don't have the pattern for yet".

[@sirjamjam101]

@@timnelson3431 oh yeah i forgot to tell you if you upgrade some of the things is the seasonal upgrades you get to choose which weapon you can get the red border for 🙏

[@timnelson3431]

@@sirjamjam101 I think it's random and I already got my red border for today. I have season of the wish all done and am trying to get more red borders for it. I'll try to focus on the weapon tomorrow and I'll let you know if I got the red border. I could have sworn it was getting one after completing a Rivans Lair or The Coil which would be random.

[@Prezboy98]

I’m getting back into the game after 1.5 and I’m still confused when it comes to crafting weapons. I had a bunch of red borders and was trying to extract the pattern and I either had to dismantle it or use a deep sight harmonizer( which I had none of). So I dismantle a few weapons and doing that didn’t advance the pattern progress what am I doing wrong?

[@itztizzle]

You have to extract the resonance of a red border. Then you can dismantle it. I believe that’s how it works

Well this is an mmo like game You don't really need to do all these to be good at the game Chill my bro

[@Ax-xN]

Would they ever buff mobility 😂😂 it feels like even hunters don’t need to spec into mobility it should give us a huge gun related buff to reload and handling because that’s the only way to match resilience and recovery also hunters are gunplay related

[@itztizzle]

Agreed haha

[@xannplayz]

I agree. I don't even spec into mobility on hunter. I just do resil and disc, while my mobility ranges from 30-40.

[@Ax-xN]

@@xannplayz I literally do mobility out of shame

[@richardshueydc1529]

Mobility is a waist for sure. I hope they can fix this in D3 (if it comes out) Recovery makes you recover your health faster, resilience reduces damage, MOBILITY should do something like make it slightly harder for the AI to target you or give you a small percentage chance to be missed by AI shots. Something like that…
