Destiny 2: The 5 Hardest Strikes (& The 5 Easiest)
2026.02.27 12:33
First introduced in the DLC , The Scarlet Keep is a strike that will keep many players up all night. Simply due to the fact of how many times they will have to start over and try again to beat it. Coordination among team members is key in this strike and if even one person lets down their guard for a second it could be game over for the entire t
Over the past two years, Bungie has done good work slowly removing some of the more disturbing aspects from the Eververse store. Gameplay-focused items like armor, sparrows and Ghost shells have been moved out of the store and are, like in Destiny, offered as in-game rewards. At this point in time, the Eververse store purely sells cosmetic items, including weapon ornaments, emotes and finishers.
In addition to the new dungeon, Bungie also upped the rewards on their punishingly difficult Grandmaster Nightfall Ordeals. Players who get to the end of these mega-challenge missions in Destiny 2 are guaranteed to earn Ascendant Shards, the most coveted currency in the game. Bungie has shown that they want to encourage players to challenge themselves and are finally handing check out here the loot to justify the eff
It’s new expansion time with Bungie rolling out Destiny 2: Forsaken this week and with it comes all sorts of changes that might as well be an entirely new game...OK maybe not entirely. Forsaken does change quite a bit, though, and if freshly coming back or starting up these little list of helpful tips should set any Guardian on the right path to taking it easy while enjoying the most of Forsaken; this is not an end all be all just some things noticed in the initial first few hours that will make getting through The Reef and the rest of the galaxy easier when taking down the big bad Uldren.
Some strikes just do not live up to expectations. It isn't that players want each strike to live up to the hype or be bone-crushingly difficult, it is just they would prefer a snippet of edge-of-your-seat action during one of these events. Sadly, once players get past a few somewhat rough encounters with the enemy in The Insight Terminus, they will soon encounter one of the weakest bosses in the game. Kargen the Technocrat fails to live up to his billing, allowing players to easily walk all over
Destiny 2 gamers battle Grask in an attempt to liberate Earth from the grasp of the Taken. Virgos may be disappointed by Grask, The Consumed being a relatively middle-of-the-road boss in comparison to the oth
Yes, despite all the worldwide controversy surrounding loot boxes, Destiny 2 still uses them. Called Bright Engrams, these boxes are purchased from the Eververse store. They spill out a random selection of items that players have no control over. There are also Nostalgic Engrams that contain cosmetic items from Year 2. If you really want to spend real-world money on microtransactions, it’s best to directly purchase what you want from Eververse.
Boss fights and game enemies are sometimes not the only worry a player of Destiny 2 should concern themselves with. In fact, in The Inverted Spire, enemies become the least of a player's worries. Instead, the environment around them takes center stage as the arena is constantly changing and shifting, causing players to have to adapt to what is going on around t
Likewise, it’s nice that we finally got a new race of enemies to battle. The Scorn may have some relation to the Fallen, but they look and fight differently. The Scorn brings enemies that rush the player, swing fire-infused maces, attack mid-range and snipe from a distance. They’re not wholly unique from the current crop of enemies, but they provide a good change in pace.
For a free experience, Destiny 2: New Light does provide a lot to do. In many ways, you can experience a lot of the best parts of Destiny 2 without paying for anything. If you haven’t given Destiny 2 a shot yet, New Light is worth downloading.
Unfortunately, there’s almost no way to earn these items through gameplay. Random tiers on the Battle Pass (we’ll get to that) drop Engrams that contain some of this gear. Other than that, players need to rely on two currencies:
Outside of the new story, locations, enemies and Gambit, most of Forsaken’s changes lie in its quality-of-life improvements. From the addition of in-game lore to random rolls for weapons and gear to an in-game accomplishment tracker, Bungie has done an excellent job bringing back popular features they nixed when jumping from Destiny to Destiny 2. The good news is that all players can enjoy these improvements whether or not they own Forsaken.
For most players, reacting is something that has become second nature. It is this quickness without the need for deliberation that helps them surpass their previous high marks and allows them to overcome any and all difficulties taking place in-game. Those not quick on the trigger will find Exodus Crash to be exceedingly hard to surpass due to the frantic nature of the strike with its exploding enemies and its quick but ferocious boss fight. That said, for seasoned gamers, this is a strike that could be completed with their eyes clo
