20 Things You'll Regret Not Doing Before Final Shape

There are certain things you absolutely NEED to do in Destiny 2 before The Final Shape expansion drops on June 4th. Many weapons are going away, many currencies are changing, and overall there are important things you should do in order to prepare for the big finale of Destiny's first saga. Regardless of if you're a casual, a hardcore vet, or someone trying the game for the first time, here's the comprehensive checklist of everything you need to do before Final Shape. Enjoy :)

Updates: 1) Superblack shader will be returning at an unknown time in the future, and from an unknown source. It could be in like 2 years from Eververse. So I HIGHLY recommend you get it while you can! 2) You'll also want to keep exotic engrams and save up as many as possible so that you can decrypt them after TFS and increase your rank with the new Rahool rep system and focusing! 3) Ritual Bounties (Vanguard, Crucible, Gambit) will be REMOVED when TFS Launches! Do not stockpile them.

As a player who's coming back to D2 after a 14-month break, as well as my brother coming back to D2 after a 2 year break, this video really helped both of us. Thanks you.

Being a new player already overwhelmed with the game, hearing alot of "wont be obtainable anymore" feels really bad.

PSA: please don’t craft subjunctive with subsistence, it makes the gun worse when paired with voltshot as voltshot requires a reload, but subsistence is trying to make you reload less. Instead craft it with threat detector as that will decrease the time it takes to reload when enemies are nearby (which they will be if you are using an smg)

[Furbiscuit_og]

Prodigal Returns, from season of defiance is probably the best thing in that season. Disorientating grenades + voltshot is a very weird combo, however, when arc is on the artifact, it synergizes surprisingly well. Things either die or they are blinded and stand there doing nothing and drooling on themselves. But when arc isn't on the artifact, I find myself using other blind gl's with auto-loading and just use them to blind and swap to other weapon for damage.

The removal of stuff is starting to get a little insane. When they removed resources there was basically no reason to head to patrol sectors anymore

[thegoldengamer]

For scatter signal, you do not want slice, always go overflow + controlled burst.
You also DO NOT AT ALL want subsistence + volshot. Sub works against voltshots need to reload. Go with threat detector.

Casually drops a clip of killing Frostbolt at 9:03

This man said the video is great for people who hadn’t played this year then listed off a bunch of things a player that new can’t do

[sengan]

Some really weird takes here. Season of the deep was not all bad weapons, until its return is a fantastic shotgun and is very much worth getting the patern for. Subsistence makes no sense on subjunctive since you'll want to reload a lot, use stats for all instead. Overflow is a much better option than slice on scatter signal

[Barewell]

Bro I’m glad I saw you channel on my sub feed just now. I take breaks from Destiny now for a couple months at a time and don’t watch Destiny content then. I had started watching your videos before my last break and loved em. But I had forgotten since I really don’t watch most destiny tubers anymore. Anyways love your videos and glad I saw your upload

[ryanmiller]

So I get Pantheon is for those that are bored but it's really only for people who raid constantly and have really good partners. People like myself will not benefit from that limited event as I don't have time nor the understanding of the mechanics involved with raids or dungeons, my clan carried me definitely for any that I participated in lol

[BloxedByLightningReal]

ive been wating for this forever. I love your vids

[zack-frost]

Re: Subjunctive - Subsistence actively works against voltshot, giving you ammo back when you want to be reloading frequently to trigger the jolts. Go for Stats for All or Threat Detector instead.

[Cairn_Dweller]

Love how this is bungie's best efforts to "remove fomo from the game"

[BennyG]

I’d also recommend grabbing some Paraversal Hauls from Dares as they give out Legendary or Exotic gear to quickly increase your light level

[digitaldogs]

New player, and this was handy because you showed where i go for certain item's..im still abit confused on some stuff but thats the learning curve. I mostly find out things by trial and error to, but if im really dumbfounded then youtube and channels like yours really help. At moment on level 4 nearly on level 5 just need to do a couple more rounds of the lightfall vanguard mission with those three pillers i can never jump lol, thankfully no player has been annoyed with me plunging back to my unlived self. I think they know how hard the jumping mechanics are for new players so are patient. I do need a good clan though with friendly players, im 53 so some older players would be cool but not nessecery, i get on with everyone..or try.

[jenyusDINGUS]

i would suggest stats for all or threat detector on subjuntive to pair with voltshot over subsistence since you have to reload to proc voltshot. Although I havent tried subsistence it seems like it would work against you.

[Pacolad]

The amount of stuff to do in this game as a solo player feels so overwhelming especially for how much time and grind everything takes.

[wasser]

Im reinstaling Destiny rn. the game allways comes back.
