Title says it all. Bungie actively kills their own game more and more. It's actually comical watching them completely ignore their community at every. Single. Turn. No one wanted sunsetting, they did it. No one wanted the Destiny Content Vault, they did it. Guess what, the entire first two years of Destiny campaigns are going to be completely REMOVED FROM THE GAME. All that money we spent? Gone. Into the -blam!- void. And guess what? No matter how popular this gets they'll ignore it and pretend it doesn't exist.
-
No it wont
-
How, exactly, will it ruin the game?
-
Yay more money to burn
-
It appears some of you fools cannot grasp that this will literally ruin builds. You can equip a mod on your helmet (there goes mod slots and points, because -blam!- you) to generate orbs when using a specific element weapon (there goes your weapon diversity or favorite weapons, again because -blam!- you.) Instead of just simply allowing us to masterwork every exotic. a
-
It’s not going to ruin the game. You kids need to stop overreacting.
-
Um...You can generate orbs on ANY weapon. And all it takes is a helmet slot. Masterwork weapons will STILL generate orbs, if you're running the mod for it. Nothing bad is happening here, they made orb generation easier and less costly. Why are you whining?

Edited by joanespotatos: 1/16/2022 2:35:16 PMDo i think its not a good change? Yes Will it ruin the game? F*ck no. Will it be as bad as people are making it sound? Most likely not.

I don't view this as an Orb Nerf, but rather a Charged with Light Nerf. 3 seasons of well mods and people are still using the go to charged with light or hybrid/charged with light builds. It is because thier "Well Mods" are horrible. All the time and money in to development and they have to find a way to justify it by showing players are using them, wich the vast majority aren't. So they have to artificially generate conditions in wich "-blamming- Well Mods" are a meh choice because of the game mechanics. Example- Armor affinities can now easily be changed. (Easier to swap 2 seasons of energy specific well mods) Orbs generated by specific energy types via armor slot (sounds a lot like well mods) Orb generation harder to proc through multi Kills. (Sounds like Well Mods well generation on 5th kill) Sounds like they are trying to put Charged with Light on par with Well Mods so players use them more since Energy affinities will now effect both. This is a lazy and disappointing game change to try to upsell a bad product (well mods). I would of been happier with a slow catalyst drip than this.
-
1. Its not going to ruin the game. 2. What triggered all this was our request to be able to generate orbs with exotic weaons that didn't have catalysts. So your accusation that they "ignore their community at every turn" is a bit off the mark as well.
-
It won’t ruin the game. If you honestly feel that way you are more than welcome to stop playing the moment Witch Queen comes out if not sooner. But it won’t ruin the game. I don’t like it. Based on all we know right now it will only make us weaker. How much is up for debate. But Bungie alluded to this making something really good possible. We’ve heard that before, and it’s also up for debate how much that has been true of the DCV and sunsetting. But if you didn’t quit over the DCV or Sunsetting, this won’t be worse than that. Bungie isn’t removing orb generation from the game entirely.
-
How are orbs going to work next season? How will supers charge? Will it be different than this season? Will there other way to generate orbs? Will charged with light still be a thing? How will armor and weapons crafting work? How about the void subclass (and then subsequently the other classes) rework? How will that affect it? We know literally nothing and it’s going to “ruin the game”?! I love the drama of the forums. Lots of chicken littles. Just wait and see, then you can be angry if it sucks. Until then it’s Schroedingers Destiny…
-
Its a bad thing for sure. But "ruining the game" is exagerated. Nobody relies on these tiny orbs to get super energy. And they are only used for charged with light builds and can be replaced easily by many means. It will not ruin the game, just another good thing that gets f*cked by bad decisions
-
At the beginning I thought yeah. But the super from masterworks is minimal and on top of that once no one uses the mods they could just buff super orbs and round it out as well as freeing the weapons coding for orbs up for something else
-
Welcome…… To Destiny
-
Lmao no it won't. Calm down.
-
at least it will somewhat mitigate how broken high energy fire is.
-
We couldn’t make orbs with weapons back in D1 and I still use that game as my gold standard which I use to judge all other games by. So “ruin” is a bit of a exaggeration. I’m curious if they will revert the nerf to orbs that make them disappear after a while though.
-
Agree
-
-
Yeah this orb generating is pretty out of touch. The orb mod has to compete with ammo finder mods and there’s several builds that use orb pick-ups constantly that don’t exactly use your super (charged with light, explosive light). This change to me sounds like Bungie, again, trying to limit buildcrafting because some of us are having a little too much fun. I know they said it isn’t the full picture but unless they change how explosive light works and how charged with light mods that work off orb pick ups are changed, this will kill quite a few builds off
-
I think it's a good change, I read through it and see this as a method to help new players enjoy the game. Newer players will now be able to spawn orbs from close to day 1 before it would take them forever.
-
So I think that basically, they want master working something that is special? Like now since there’s less incentive to do it for the orbs, that maybe players will only MW their favorites? Idk that’s just me trying to make sense out of this situation, which makes little sense on its own.
-
The orb change has me real concerned and I'm not gonna pretend to feel any thing else. Bungie flat said in the TWAB they are not going to give us the whole picture. We are only going to get a piece of the picture or 1 side of the picture at a time. So until all 3 or 4 pre Which Queen sandbox TWABs are released we don't know how the game is gonna play. And I'm getting tired of having to guess.
-
Title says it all you say? Care to explain? It may make a bit of difference but I fail to see how it ruin anything. Yes it may hinder certain builds to an extent and how that equates to ruining the game is beyond me.
-
"its going to ruin the game" LOL wth have you been smokin
-
OMG SERIOUSLY get a grip it's just a stupid mechanic which gives u small orbs It want ruin the game because it's gone
