It Has Never Been Harder To Get Into Destiny

Once you have the Strange Key, you'll want to exit Xur's Treasure Hoard by walking through the teleporter right of spawn. This will take you to the opening arena in Dares of Eternity. To find the Anomalous Object, you must recreate the seven-column Bungie symbol by lining up parts of the environm

For those who decided to press on, they would eventually make their way to the Tower. Ghost introduces you to every NPC before you’re tasked with completing a Strike. Players are then greeted with a menu featuring a dizzying amount of options, some of which are locked behind an XP requirement or paywall. Assuming you finish the Strike, the game gives no guidance beyond increasing your character level. What’s a Power Level? What’s Crucible? Gambit? How do I get better gear? What makes a good piece of gear? Why are these planets locked? What should I do next?

Spending every night hammering out repeatable bounties on the moon takes no skill. Once you’ve reached your pinnacle level cap, there’s nothing left to do to prove you’re capable of taking on the Grandmaster Nightfall. The only thing standing in your way is a massive, arbitrary grind through repetitive, meaningless content. It doesn’t feel like you’re working towards anything - just a grind for grind’s sake.

A short explanation for Destiny 2’s leveling process, in case you don’t know: currently, you can reach level 1330 by participating in activities and collecting gear. Getting to 1320 is fairly straightforward, but after that your options are fewer and the challenges are more difficult. From 1100 to 1320, practically everything you do will reward you with a new weapon or piece of armor that will increase your power level. At the start of any season, you can get to this ‘soft cap’ fairly quickly. Some do it casually over a few weeks, while power players are able to min-max their way there in a matter of hours.

I have seen countless players excitedly reach that 1330 pinnacle cap only to immediately fall off and disappear until the next season or expansion, unable to do the Grandmaster Nightfall and unwilling to grind for it. I would love to attempt the game’s hardest challenge - which also rewards the best gear - with my clanmates, Libtoc.com but it’s difficult to encourage them to keep playing when all there is to do is run around on the Moon doing bounties for weeks until you’re Grandmaster ready. It’s unfair to expect players to grind that much just for access to something they’ve otherwise earned by playing the season and reaching the pinnacle cap, so a lot of people just don’t do it. Dedicated players shouldn’t miss out on the opportunity to participate in the highest level content just because they aren’t willing to exclusively play Destiny, especially when the game has nothing left to offer beyond Moon bounties.


Daring Displays requires that you complete 15 Starhorse bounties. The Starhorse is a vendor in Xur's Treasure Hoard that gives out bounties and reward exchanges. Starhorse will have six bounties available at any given moment, three of which are weekly. The sixth bounty from Starhorse is tied to the Legend variant of Dares of Eternity. The three weekly bounties count as multiple bounties, and the weekly Legend bounty counts for even m


Follow the quest marker to the back of the arena and walk between the two rocks to throw yourself up into a crack in the wall ahead. You'll need to time this right or you'll run into a rotating wall that will cause you to fall to the ground. Don't worry if you miss the jump because a passageway will open in the wall at the bottom which you can use to make your way to the next objective. There's some simple platforming to do in here, nothing too complica

The recommended power level for Grandmaster Nightfalls is 1370, but you can start attempting them at 1345. Getting from 1330 to 1345 requires Artifact Power, which in the most simplest terms just means earning experience and gaining levels. You get one level of Artifact Power for every ten levels you complete of the battle pass. Once you’ve reached Level 100 - the maximum level on the battle pass - you’ll be at 1340 power level (1330 gear level + 10 Artifact power).

The clearest example of this is the Forsaken Pack, a $20 DLC that sells the raid, dungeon, and weapons tied to the Forsaken expansion. Bungie released the campaign for free, but they are still charging money for the DLC’s post-story content. And you know what the worst part is? That free campaign won’t exist once The Witch Queen launches . It doesn’t matter if you bought Forsaken or not; that DLC’s campaign will be inaccessible for the foreseeable future. Bungie could have released the entire expansion for free to beef up the free-to-play experience, but they chose not to. They locked the best parts of Forsaken behind a paywall instead.
