By Bold 2 in One Go To Postwtf is this?
cipher a lore nerd put together to solve the final puzzle in niobe labs
its literally based off the jewel position on a sword within the lore
Bungie can't even do good marketing for their half-ass expac. Instead of some cool grand encounter everyone can do it's shooting little symbols in the right order and getting stomped at by some big dumb boss.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Posti just want this to be on every page so people who ask "what's wrong with destiny?" can understand
lmao
No other game dev does this kind of fuckery, a part of me loves it.
We give Bungie so much shit, I feel like this is their way of giving some back.

It's the simplest "this, this is what's wrong."
Way easier than explaining how PVP is a fucking chore. The economy for cores is fucking stupid. They screwed the pooch on rerolls even though they brought those back. There's not even a consensus half the time on how resi/rest/mobi even work or what's more to your benefit so people don't even know what the fuck they want to do with their gear let alone if they can (see economy for cores is fucking stupid.) Then you got how their grinds aren't even directed at any point you just gotta hope and pray some shit drops. Oh and I don't have a problem with the concept of god rolls but generally with such a low drop rate it makes PVP even more fucked up.

By DY_nasty Go To PostOne day we'll get sparrow racing back ladsNah, they'll never dedicate the adequate resources required for it.
I think its one of those things people look back fondly at but no one ever actually played.
I think its gone for good.
By Bold 2 in One Go To PostNah, they'll never dedicate the adequate resources required for it.rau will tell you its the only thing i played in y3 D1 and it was the best pvp content we had since TTK pls im crying right now

Here's a hilarious example of shit. I'm fairly close to Wayfarer title or whatever. I'm missing some weapons that are part of this thing. Where I'm stuck?
There's a rocket that drops in a particular Nightfall you can't even roll into any Nightfall you want, there's only 3 a week and Nightfall doesn't have MM so I'd have to get a fireteam for this endeavor. And farm till that dropped. It's no guarantee. They've bullshitted you up your chances with a better score but whatever.
There are weapons/armor I'd have to farm EP for with literally no guarantee of dropping even 5, 10, whatever times I do it. Sometimes they appear in the chest but so would any duplicates of stuff I already have. Oh and you only get a key a week for the chest at the end. Hope the boss is one that drops the weapon that week. There are 5 bosses and they rotate just like the available Nightfalls do.
I'm not bothering because lol fuck it.

Can't let you farm shit you want to. Hell even heroic adventures are on rotation on the OG planets, they only come up if it's the weekly milestone planet.
how long after the first completion will it take for LFG to fillup with : Niobe Labs: KWTD or kick
?
i give it 1 hour

Bristling with excitement over here waiting for streamers to unlock a tedious repetitive horde mode on a tiny map. Wooo..
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostDa fuck? I haven’t logged in for weeks and I guess I’ll just continue catching up on single player games.
lmao
Tuned into a stream and again what the fuck is this shit?. Just saw Ninjyy shooting tiny symbols and callouts.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Post
lmao
whos mans
Yall are gonna have to gear check irl degrees. If you don't have someone with a Master's in language, on your fireteam, you're throwing.
I guess no one did it still? Great shit A+. New content? Go watch streamers fail at unlocking it. Fucking ridiculous. Hey smokey how to make Destiny 3 Great Again? Pull the stick from out of Bungie's ass or fire whomever is making these shit decisions about how they handle content or you know what little of it they make and have.
Also this got deleted but apparently happened.
Jeez. I mean I bitch about 'em so whatever I get the disdain for me but there's plenty in that community that stream, a bunch of lore enthusiasts and overall tons of people from different places came together to try to solve this shit that really like the game and support each other and Bungie. Nice dragging of them too. Really.

be brave like those streamers dy, spend 12+ hours or whatever it is now still failing at our shit
oh you don't feel compelled to do that kind of self-torture
you don't have the smarts
Well apparently neither do hundreds maybe even thousands (I wish this was hyperbole but I saw the numbers on the streams myself) with the most obscure knowledge of the game and its lore.
That's not even getting into buggy ass servitors either.
Fuck off bungie.

So niobe labs is some new piece of "content" and you have to solve that shit puzzle Phaze posted to complete it? Am I correct?
The completion unlocks a new forge, and maybe something else? Sort of like world's first raid completion of last wish unlocked the Corrupted Strike in the dreaming city.

Literally a foreign tongue
From the outside looking in, I get the sense that Bungie isn't respecting people's time with D2.
By Smokey Go To PostLiterally a foreign tongueD2 year 1 nearly died because it was shallow, lacked grind and depth. You got everything in two weeks and you were done.

This is what the community asked for, lots of content in the past has been unlocked through puzzles like this
The outbreak prime exotic pulse rifle in Destiny 1
The whisper of the worm sniper rifle in Warmind
These were hits with the community, so they ran with it.
Well no. You're missing one solid point here. Those weapon missions didn't gate other/new content off, they're basically side quests.
Also as I post this that stupid puzzle room still isn't done.

The fact that they didn't even checkpoint any of it off too, sadistic. Part of the problem with it is you have to redo the whole thing over again if you fuck up the portion where you guess the code/sequence of bullets/arrows into the symbols.
Good summation of the fuckery here: https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2019/01/09/good-morning-destiny-2s-niobe-labs-still-isnt-solved-a-community-event-gone-wrong/#4f5406740973
This is now the third time since Black Armory launched that the community has logged on to play only to run into a brick wall. The first was the insane power requirement of the original Volundr Forge which locked out a huge chunk of the community (and many still haven’t beaten it after essentially being initially turned off). The next was the unnecessarily lengthy Izanami Forge unlock quest that no one wants to beat on more than one character ever. Now we have Niobe Labs which is quite literally preventing the community from doing anything meaningful until someone solves it, even though many cleared their schedules yesterday to experience new content, only to find that once again, they’ll have to wait.
This isn’t even a debate between casual vs. hardcore players at this point or what’s endgame content or not. This is just not a good way to roll out stuff. I do not mind the week to week schedule which stretches out releases over the course of a season as it’s a reason to look forward to each new development. But it’s something else entirely when you keep slamming into these gates time and time again, and fool me three times, which is what we’re at now, and I don’t blame those who are ready to walk away entirely. This is just not how anyone wants to see new content released, even most of the ultra-elite this is supposedly being crafted for.
I have no idea how long it will take to solve Niobe Labs, but when it happens, it’s going to be less of a “woo hoo, congrats!’ moment than it is a “good lord finally what the hell” one instead. If this goes past the 24 hour mark I have to believe that Bungie might start doling out a hint or two, but man, this process has been deeply exhausting and unfun to even watch, much less play, and I hope the next time we get a puzzle mystery, it isn’t used as an ill-advised gatekeeping tool like this. In the grand scheme of things when you add up all of Black Armory’s content, it might actually be pretty good, but the process to unlock it has been an absolute slog, and Bungie definitely needs to rethink their release plans going forward, especially with the “mysteries only” Penumbra release on the horizon, which now sounds downright terrifying after witnessing the last day.
Honestly I can kill faster with my BF in some of those situations he's in. It's still slow there. He playing on one of the consoles?
I got a BF drop with maxed out range, but the handling was ass.
On bigger maps, the pole has proven rather clutch for me. Think its on console

Ranges on PC are even farther. In some of the instances he's in a bygones would have ruined him in no time.

lol. And that's not even getting into how one of the quest steps for something else is in Shattered Throne which hits this week then goes away for another 2 or whatever.
Basically I'll just quote reilo
You have to have a rare bounty drop from one of ada-1's daily bounties to continue the lock and key questline.

By Dark PhaZe Go To PostThe rare bounty thing is so fucking stupidReddit is reporting that rare bounties can be farmed from the Bergusia Forge. So with the last Forge now open it’s not as hard to get a rare bounty as it used to be.
