Destiny 2 players who have struggled to obtain the game’s rarest exotic weapons can look forward to a major boost with the upcoming Season of the Deep. Bungie has announced it will introduce Triumphs that significantly increase the likelihood of receiving exotics, but only for five new raids.
Boosted drops from five raids
The new Triumphs will apply to randomly dropped exotics from Last Wish, Deepstone Crypt, Vow of the Disciple, Vault of Glass, and Kingsfall, and will be attached to existing Triumphs. The boosts are retroactive, meaning that if you have already completed the relevant Triumphs, you will benefit straight away.
This is a significant improvement for those who have put in the time and effort to unlock these Triumphs but have yet to receive the exotics that come with them. Additionally, this is just one of several upcoming exotic-centric changes, including a new way of focusing exotic armor, allowing players to obtain better stat rolls on their equipment, and swapping exotic engram drops in place of specific Pinnacle rewards on a weekly basis.
Last Wish
The One Thousand Voices triumph, which features objectives like “Petra’s Run,” “The New Meta,” and “Thunderstruck,” offers rate boosts of up to +3. There are several other challenges that also offer the same boost.
Deepstone Crypt
The Eyes of Tomorrow Triumph has three specific objectives that grant a rate boost of up to +3, with another challenge offering a +2 boost.
Vow of the Disciple
The Collective Obligation Triumph offers rate boosts of up to +3, with a specific “Vow of the Disciple” master difficulty challenge providing a +2 boost.
Vault of Glass
The Vex Mythoclast Triumph offers a notable boost of up to +3 for completing the Flawless Vault of Glass challenge, as well as up to +1 for various other challenges.
Kingsfall
The final Triumph, Touch of Malice, includes challenges like “The Grass is Always Greener,” “Gaze Amaze,” and “Devious Thievery,” offering a boost of up to +3. Other challenges also provide up to +1, which can add up quickly.
Conclusion
Destiny 2 fans have long been frustrated by limited access to rare exotic weapons within the game, but the upcoming seasonal changes hope to address this issue. These new Triumphs offer a promising solution that should make obtaining exotic weapons more viable for players who have taken the time to complete the required objectives. With more changes coming in Season 21, it’s an exciting time for Destiny 2 players, and it’s worth keeping an eye out for what else Bungie has in store.
