The Unspoken Rules That Most Players Don't Know About

Rediscover your love for fantasy by listening to Songs of Chaos: link.michaelrm...
These are the UNWRITTEN Rules of Destiny. Since they are unwritten, most people don't know about them! But nonetheless, they are important to follow. They are kinda like the "common decency" etiquette within the game. From the specific armor pieces you're supposed to NEVER dismantle to the proper etiquette of emotes, this video covers everything you need to know. Also, don't take all of these 100% seriously... some of them are mostly a joke. Enjoy :)

Listen to Michael R Miller's Songs of Chaos series here: link.michaelrmiller.co.uk/Shadow-Destiny-2 Most people do not know about the unwritten rules of Destiny, so this video aims to explain them. Think of these "rules" to be equivalent to "having good manners" --- not everyone has good manners, but people really appreciate it when you do!

[@GanjaScotty]

Some of these listed items aren’t rules at all, more like curtesy or the lack thereof, especially when playing with toxic randoms. Coming from Warframe, I’m honestly disgusted by Destiny’s community. I’ve reported so many weirdos in the 200 hours of playing so far, so many of which were complete basement dwellers with thousands of hours played.

All the other commendations should, of course, be spread randomly and evenly among everyone else. In 3 player activities, everyone should get 2 commendations, in 6 person everyone gets 3, in the new 12 person activity everyone gets 3.

11:52 Wearing bright colors is definitely an advantage at times. It's usually the shotgun apes that do it, but it's smart because your eyes are naturally attracted to the big glowing white blob rushing it's way towards you. So you and your teammates are focused on that while the players on the other team can either kill you while your distracted or complete the objective. That and some just do it as a power move.

I believe I was part of the most amazing social space bond in D2 history. A bunch of random guardians equipped the drum table emote and we instinctively gathered in a circle playing the drm and on a clock wise rotation we send one person to the middle to dance for 5 sec then the next come in the middle to dance. 💃

[@wikayne]

That is nice ! I love how those moments are so spontaneous and how everybody understand everything without a word. Have fun, Guardian ! :)

[@gwoody4003]

My first rank up, I had like 15 people come out of nowhere dancing and doing silly things around me. Thats a powerful moment for a new player. So about 6 hours into playing the game, I was prompted to do that Grasp of Avarice. So I did it. Alone. At 1700. Day 1. 😂 Took like 5 hours and 50 lives to get to the final chamber and I got lit up like a birthday cake immediately. Still haven't done it since. 😂 But my aim is way better and I can tripple jump into a 5 gallon bucket from 100 meters now, so it wasn't a total waste. I went and watched a bunch of new player vids after that, cus the game does not tell you nothing about nothing.

[@dewhoa6308]

#31, I have a few PvP emote stories I hold close to my heart. Once, some guy started playing patty-cake with me. It was so nice…until my teammate domed the enemy. Then there was the time I was in an Iron Banner match with my friend. We were the only two ppl on the team, so we just caramelldansen’d at each other. The other team, with 5, took notice, and soon swarmed us-not with guns, bullets, or bombs, but with sweet dance moves and a few hugs. By the times our teams were filled out, we had 5 minutes left in the match, and there was a guy on the other side who just murked us all with an Eager Edge Other Half. But that entire match felt a lot more laid-back and chill than any other Iron Banner match I’ve been a part of in recent memory. In fact, it was one of the best PvP matches I’ve ever partaken in, ever.

I frequently have occasion to set the team to go to the tower, and then get up and go do whatever kids or cats need while we fly in. My wife started randomly walking me over to various vendors, so I'd come back and sometimes be standing in front of Shaxx, Zavala, the Post office, etc. .... for like 2 years I thought it was a thing the game did, and you could load into the tower in front of vendors randomly.

Hmmm I just deleted those gloves - finally. It is time to break with tradition - a new shape is coming.

I thought that everytime you level up you throw yourself off the ledge? I'm a new player and seen this a couple of time's, so obviously i follow suite when i level up i jump off the balcony. But I've never seen anyone group round a guardian when they level up, maybe because there are so many new players like myself i and them didn't know this. Also I'm terrible at the jumping mechanics, but amazed and grateful that so far nobody has got annoyed with me, and often shoot where there's a better place too jump. So far this game seems to have a really cool community, i often bump into a high level player and he/she will give me a emote, then i respond with an emote. For me this gives the game a feeling of family, we all know at first certain things are hard, and it seems alot of the OG gardians are very supportive of new player's. Used to be like this in division 2, but now its not so much, still has a firm fan base but nothing like destiny has imo, so glad i started to play this game again, at first wasn't too much into fantasy games, now i think they are actually the best, especially the community who love the Lore. I stop at every part to listen to the story, so i understand what I'm here for.

Actually for the trace riffle you showed (can't remember the name since I haven't been able to play since January) People don't usually care if you grab them as long as there are more than 1 out on the ground since if you are doing the proper build for it aka a volatile Build with gyrfalcon the orbs are just a nice fun new weapon added to the arsenal or a defense object for everyone to use if at risk

Don't put your Stasis crystal in the line of fire, especially when your team has created a choke point

[@CrunchyMaggots]

? That's where it should go. It's an explosive. An incredibly strong one too. You benefit from it going up and exploding in choke points. Your half second of not spamming Calus Mini Tool is worth the explosion. Forbearance will also chain detonate it for even more blast. Headstone means it'll show up there regardless, your teammate gets no say, and Stasis players can 1 tap it to get back grenade energy for more turrets, so it's ideal to leave it alone for your teammate to break it, but if it's still there after a few seconds (longer than a reload), go nuts. An artifact this season will spawn them periodically, so your stasis player may not know it's there.

I actually held out for a few months when I "quit Destiny forever." Then the Final Shape dropped...

[@Drewtendo]

I stopped back in the middle of shadow keep, but I'm back after almost 5 years. The game is very different now, but so am I. I'm actually glad to be back after so long!

[@howaboutno_scotty]

@@DrewtendoI’m right there with you. Last time I played, Leviathan was the only raid. I’ve been back in for about 2 weeks now, learning/relearning basically everything

[@OsirisTheRaptor]

That don't take rule gets broken every TIME and it PISSES ME OFF the worse part is, it ain't even new players doing this. It's litteraly the ones with rank 6 or above. JUST PLEASE FOR EVERYONES SAKE, *STOP TAKING THINGS YOU DIDN'T MAKE*

[@Junkinsan]

A little late to the party, but I can confirm the Songs of Chaos books are VERY good! Awesome sponsorship

[@MK-U-N]

If someone is annoying in any kind of match and they are running to revive me, I will be spamming the hell out of the respawn button so I don't get infected by the plague they are.

I recently helped a new player out on a strike. They were a warlock and having trouble with jumping. I stayed with them and revived them several times until they finally made it. The other player went on ahead and waited patiently for us.

[@LooseDeuce]

One of my fav things to do in destiny is go to the cosmodrome and chill with the new lights so im glad that's on there.

[@thomaswilson4292]

Just played horde mode for the first time. One player would create stasis crystals and then do nothing with them. They blocked off sight lines, so I had to jump over to shoot the enemies. Same as the “don’t move around” rule, one stasis crystal popped up in front of me while I shot a rocket, died. Thanks, there were no enemies close by.

[@cappsyb3669]

Okay but Rule 61 is universal to ANY game with a social area. See a group of people emoting and being silly? You are legally bound to drop EVERYTHING and join in the silliness, or you’ll go to the no fun zone. Plus, dance emote groups are the perfect opportunity to join, afk for a few minutes to grab food and come back.

[@davidepulinas1640]

10:50 WAS THAT A MINI-ATZECROSS? HOW ADORABLE🤣

[@kellsorwhatever]

I'm proud to have been one of the early crouch-walking, tower-stalking, trend setters in D1. I wish I could say I started it, but I don't think any of us really knows who or precisely when the tower stalking commenced. First it was just a way to harass in-game friends taking too long with their loadouts, then it became abstracted: "Hey, that guardian has a weird hat," or, "They're just STANDING there!" All I really know is that it was very important to never run. Only creep... Only creep...

[@FalseIDDNTY]

I had to get dinner so I left my guardian dancing for about 10 minutes , I came back and there was like 12 guardians dancing next to me 😂

[@FridayUwU]

#9 exists because chests used to (or still do, I'm not sure) de-spawn after opening them. It wasn't secret or unwritten and people would get upset if you opened it too early, but it seems to have evolved into a purely courteous act.

[@ulrichwarthen]

1:55 You definitely should pick up your teammates transmutation spheres, the point of the gun is that your teammates love picking stuff up so hopefully they do that and dunk the sphere on a boss, pretty nicely increasing your DPS

[@retr0_mkv373]

I've always played this game alone from D1, and sadly, I've never been able to know her rules even though I already suspected some of them, thank you for enlightening me 😮

[@ArmitageShanksMC]

Placing banners in weird places was fixed some time ago now, they always place where you start the placement process now.

[@murdocnichols15]

A few of these are very important such as the reviving and not grouping up or not getting in each others ways. But a good majority of them like “if you see a group doing it then you are obligated to”. When im at the tower im on a mission to get my engrams done and plot next story mission or something. I dont waste time with that stuff. Also after many hours of playing the Souls games im very suspicious of people pointing out doors or walkways and i ask them to go first.

[@Overlycomplicatedswede]

One of my favorite moments in destiny was 2 weeks ago when I started dancing in the tower and went AFK to use the bathroom when I came back about 5 minutes later my character was surrounded by 11 other players vibing in the tower One time me and my friends in a raid were rethinking our loadouts for the encounter and one of them went afk, so we pushed that player all the way back through the portal from the jumping to last wish third encounter. When they returned they were extremely confused

[@fireheartclan]

#60: With how many different weapons in the current meta are B&S based explosives, or stuff like Nighthawk being present in basically every raid DPS. Its important to keep this in mind. If you need to be able to move for hunters reload dodge similar, position yourself so your dodge will not cause any disruption. Even if you don't block someone directly, have had a friend dodge into someone who pushed them to the side that caused someone else to smack them in the back of the head with a rocket. Additionally With this, rally barricade may be very helpful, but remember to drop it facing away from the DPS angle, even if its only waist height, it can still cause issues. #46: Even if you don't have your "exact loadout" ready. Try to bring the weapons you will be using. For stuff like a normal raid or Nightfall, its not item locked so you can always swap weapons around if need be. Keep in mind stuff for stunning champions, since especially with completely random matchmaking, at times no one will run the exact stunning weapon by default and the others will be thankful if you are the one who is willing to swap. #39: If the encounter allows you to move away from the banner slight without starting the encounter, do that after you rally. Its a nice way of signifying readiness without having to write in chat or saying anything. And whoever is in charge of starting the encounter or is in charge of the team will generally (silently) thank you. Though additionally, especially if its something you've never done before, wait for an explanation to finish before rallying. Speak from experience with this, were I've rallied to the wrong type of heavy weapon and went into last fights without full heavy ammo. The damage will be noticeable. #34: Some supers should be help onto a bit more often then others, such as Well of Radiance, since their use can be a full on game changer. But, as long as everyone is running orb generation and there is enough ad density there shouldn't be much issue using your supers quite often. I can't even count how many times a roaming super has been able to make an annoying section of a nightfall into basically a cakewalk. #28: Bonus point for turning up your in game music for this exact section. Many players (myself included) really enjoy both the jumping puzzle and the background music of this part. It also gives a good time for people to take a small break if need be, just make sure the entire raid team knows you have gone AFK for a few minutes. So you can still get a chance at the chest if you need it. #14: Its your hammer, you need to pick it back up. We may be god killing beings, but that doesn't mean we should be allowed to litter. (Jokes aside, the throwing hammer will save your life in more instances then you ever may expect. Treat it with some respect and it will seemingly fly more true)

[@Ryze2803]

Whenever I’m teaching grasp I always say you gotta open both doors at the same time. Works every time

[@werealoveaudiovisual]

The bonus loot chests in raids used to de-spawn after a certain amount of time, hence the tradition of waiting for everyone to be at the chest to open it. Also if everyone is at the chest they can´t accidentally pull the players to the next area :)

[@FridayUwU]

Just commented this before I saw yours! Glad some people remember.

[@stormingisraphel]

One of my unwritten rules- If I get a best dressed, and one of my teammates gets one, then mine must always go to the person who doesn't have one. Gotta keep that distribution even.

[@deertrivia5672]

Unwritten Rule #84229 - At the end of a raid, if you end up getting a duplicate of the raid exotic that you already had, do NOT announce this to the group, especially if someone in the group hasn't gotten their first drop yet. Announcing "I just got my third Mythoclast" is a dick move when someone in the group is still hunting for their first.

[@roobeedooo]

“if you didnt make it, dont take it” good life advice right there
