Solo GM Birthplace of the Vile (Strand Warlock) [Destiny 2]

Ойындар

Destiny 2 Season of the Wish - Solo Grandmaster Nightfall Birthplace of the Vile Completion on a Warlock / Grandmaster Birthplace of the Vile Solo 1840 Max Difficulty Platinum Rank / Grandmaster Destiny Nightfall Solo Birthplace of the Vile / Birthplace of the Vile Grandmaster Solo / Solo GM Birthplace of the Vile / Solo Gilded Conqueror. Just a video of a solo completion of the Grandmaster Nightfall The Ordeal this week in Birthplace of the Vile. Details below.
Sorry about the delay on this, I had a few other things on and not really feeling it this week, so gameplay isn't the best. This is probably my least favourite GM too, so it was hard to want to do a run. Either way, here's a clear for this week.

    Eso, what's a quick take on the state of the game from your perspective? I'm curious what one of the most dedicated players in the game still thinks about it to this day. Still using your 5 year old videos of the dreaming city to grind old triumphs out. Love your content.

    @Yanicece that's just simply not true lol. As for the original question, my opinion of the current state of the game doesn't really differ from most. I think the biggest issue is that there's really no reason to play, nor anything to chase or progress towards for the last few years. The most dedicated players have nothing to seek after, and that problem has only persisted and become worse over time. Usually in any mmo or progression based game, there's always new loot to chase for to become more powerful and tackle the new content,, but with the current systems there's basically nothing. Armour will forever remain the same, so once you get the high stat sets you need, it effectively cuts your loot chase down drastically. Weapons are all so powerful and plentiful, that generally anything new will have a decent enough alternative you already have. So other than random exotics or the odd new weapon, 99% of the loot chase is non existent after playing for a while. Game difficulty is another problem, but that's not me saying "game 2 ez". It's just was strange to me one of the goals for Lightfall was to "bring challenge back to Destiny", but the only changes they made was to make the lower level content harder, without any changes to the highest levels of content. That didn't satisfy anybody, and just served to frustrate the more casual players by making lower level content more tedious. Overall I think a lot of the problems are hard to know how to fix, but for me personally there's just no point to nearly everything in the game. Easy enough to dismiss that as having played for too long, or having done everything there is in the game. But basically, any new season or DLC doesn't provide anything new or aspirational, nor something to progress that makes a meaningful difference overall. It's usually just knocking off a checklist of new content, and building around whatever the artifact says to for a few months. And I think that's a problem that most dedicated players find themselves in now.

    @Esoterickk I'm impressed you were able to articulate that so well, and I'm glad I share a similar opinion to a true professional destiny player as a casual hobbiest myself. You hit the nail on the head to nearly every point I feel as well about the game. I was worried my own biases of Destiny as a long-time player (day 1 of D2) invalidated some of the ways I felt the game should or shouldn't be. Still have love for the game and Bungie. I just really hope the final shape isn't the nail in the coffin, although lightfall certainly seems to have severely tarnished the games reputation. Thanks for your insight. I really appreciate the consideration.

    Eso, I'm curious to know which warlock strand build you find more effective/fun, the swarmers and quicksilver or the thorn and necrotics, or a different build altogether and id like to know your reasoning behind why you'd choose what you'd choose. Edit: Forgot about that new strand bow they added- curious to know if that beats out quicksilver or the thorn build as well

  • @Esoterickk

    Depends on what you're doing really. If there's loads of groups of enemies that you can constantly keep the procs going on, then the Thorn / Necrotics will be better. Heist BG Moon is a perfect example. But Quicksilver is a better all-rounder for other scenarios, and doesn't rely on huge amounts of enemies to get going. The bow isn't that great, mostly niche and fun to use sort of thing

    Unraveling targets is super useful for the horde shuttle perk. It's kinda hard to get it with the orbs of power as you have to keep your distance in gms usually so getting the orbs you make is tricky. This makes it easier to unravel a lot of targets quickly and start the threading army loop.

The teleport evwn though they are burning or poison the tick damage when they are teleport become useless n they became immune when the teleport & after they finished teleport even though they have not fully form their body but they can already start shooting at you. And i think bungie its buffing the dude with the scorn pistol & shield cause their damage is insane & this boss fight its like fighting with cockrach with weapon.
