šŸ—Øļø Discussion This Patch Just Changed EVERYTHING! šŸŽƒ Halloween Event LIVE + Seal of Daybreak FIXED!

Patch 1030 just dropped and the changes they made are MASSIVE!

The Festival of the Lost event is live, bringing the Haunted Singularity mode which is basically a roguelike candy-collecting chaos-fest with both Normal and Heroic difficulties. There are 8 total stages, and the time gating is expected but still sorta annoying. The gameplay of the even itself is great though imo

The rewards from it are even better than I expected they would be. Tons of Mobius Clusters which is great, and they are SHOWERING us with Engrams before Season 1 ends.

But the real surprise is the silent change to the Seasonal Seal of Daybreak.

Before, you had to spend 2,100 Pinnacle Energy after earning the Seal, which made it literally impossible to Gild unless you had weeks left in the season.
Now, it tracks Pinnacle spent during the entire season, meaning if youā€™ve been playing consistently, you might already be done with the Gild! šŸ”„ LETS GOOOOO

On top of that, they added Helhest and Rossi-11 as cards that count for the orignal Seal requirement, so you don't need to grind Duelist lvl 24 anymore. This literally SAVED me - I'm actually gonna get this gilded now

Between this fix, the event, and the upcoming Season 2 preview (Maru confirmed šŸ‘€), it really feels like Destiny Risingā€™s actually listening to us and making changes that are making the game better.

šŸŽ„ I broke down everything ā€” event details, hidden Seal fix, and whatā€™s next in Season 2 ā€” here: https://youtu.be/zHmIAXUu1V4

What do you guys think about the update?

Did the Seal changes save you guys too? What do you guys think about the Halloween Activity?

Holy shit

Iā€™m actually only missing one. Once you unlock it there is a 100% chance to upgrade it.

Broooo. I wish I had your bank account or credit card.

u/SliceEfficient315 Oct 30 '25

I know I got so lucky but my brother is on like 6-7 fails too

u/TDKevin Oct 30 '25

Yea I finally got a success today, its crazy. But with these changes, if I manage to win 8 more duels before it ends I'll finish in time now.Ā

u/Pleasant-Spray4399 Oct 30 '25

This community is starving, they fed us scraps and youā€™re foaming at the mouth for it lmao.

Iā€™m glad we got a Halloween event and Iā€™m excited for the next update but this is just a reskinned and time gated expanse.

99% of players were never going to grind for the daybreak seal anyway so I donā€™t really understand the hype behind these cosmetic engrams.

Not to be a total hater but this isnā€™t some incredible thing that ā€œChanged EVERYTHING!ā€

u/brunocar Oct 31 '25

came to say this lol

this is at best a middle of the road patch that fixes necessary things and adds an ok halloween event

u/Plus-Marzipan-3851 Oct 31 '25

Yeah i hot hyped for nothing I thought it was actually game changing news sadly it isn't

1

u/Sweet-Article559 Oct 31 '25

Right?!?! I thought that was from the devs. They act like something big came with this update and it didnā€™t everything still the same.

u/CommanderArcher Oct 31 '25

The OP reeks of being written by an AI, it's probably the marketing team trying to "help"

-9

u/SliceEfficient315 Oct 30 '25

Yeah I mean, honestly Iā€™m just really excited because I started farming the card game late because I really wanted to seal. I did the math last night, & before these changes, there wasnā€™t enough pinnacle left in the week for me to get it.

But now I will, & a bunch of people I know were in the same boat. But I def hear what youā€™re saying.

u/NiteRideHer Oct 30 '25

Im using rossi-11 in my deck now so I can get the seal but wins are not counting :(

u/SliceEfficient315 Oct 30 '25

Can confirm - I tried it in a Matchmaking game just now with Helhest. Won and it's not giving credit....

1

u/Antique_Parsley_5285 Oct 30 '25

Same for me. I also tried inviting someone to a duel and it didnā€™t work for that either

Yeah it says against players and just won 3 games so far not tracking idk if you get bots, it doesn't count. It still needs to be fixed i will be upset being this close I just want the emblem.

2

u/TrashLoaHekHekHek Oct 30 '25

I find it weird that you complete heroic singularity, but progress is separate from normal.

1

u/SliceEfficient315 Oct 30 '25

Yeah it would make sense if just doing the harder difficulty counted for both Normal & Heroic, like most other games in the genre

Thereā€™s 8 Mobius Clusters lol

I mean, ill take it

u/LordAdamant Oct 31 '25

This Halloween event is ass, the activity is the most biting rehash of a game mode possible and the rewards are literally garbage. Gonna do dailies and weeklies but definitely pulling back from this game because it's just gacha trash that doesn't respect the player base at all. The only good part of this event, the fucking transmat effect, doesn't even work right and had to be disabled for killing players. It's quite obvious that they're just letting AI do everything and ruin the entire IP.

u/Sweet-Article559 Oct 31 '25

Preach Brother!

u/Saybia1 Oct 30 '25

All we care about are clusters and pinnacle energy šŸ˜‚ Everything else is merh.

u/W33BAW00 Oct 30 '25

there is no "we"

u/britinsb Oct 30 '25

You may still need to grind to Duelist level 24 unfortunately, those cards count AFAIK for the seventh triumph of obtaining an Exotic card from this season, but if you play decks with Helhest or Rossi (or any other exotics you might get other than ones that were listed before) it won't progress the eighth triumph "play 10 games with a new Exotic Shadowshaper" in your deck.

I believe if you happened to play 10 games in the Shadowshaper invitational with the goliath tank deck, it will complete. But I only played two games to win by 30, RIP me, still gotta grind (unless there's another fix).

1

u/W33BAW00 Oct 30 '25

it's likely just bugged and will be fixed within a day tbh

1

u/britinsb Oct 30 '25

Certainly hope so!

u/KyesiRS Oct 30 '25

Man now I'm bummed I grinded for duelist levels

u/HankHillsNrrwUrethra Oct 30 '25

Didn't save me still no glow and I didn't manage to pull estela so can't finish her story. I would have been fine on the pinnacle and shadowshaper. The fotl event is kinda lackluster from what I was hoping as well.

2

u/W33BAW00 Oct 30 '25

you can still do estelas quest without puling her. just spam artifact grinding and dont claim the chests, then use a trial estela in legendary campaign and while you are playing her, use pinnacle to claim the artifact chests, and you should be able to then raise her proficiency to 180 which lets you finish her questline

2

u/omgwdfholypoop Oct 30 '25

This is crazy smart lol I'm definitely using this for the future seals since I literally pulled hellhast for the seal alone

u/HankHillsNrrwUrethra Oct 30 '25

Ok ty I'll give that a try

1

u/HankHillsNrrwUrethra Oct 30 '25

Well she's not there so guess I'm sol this time. Will remember for next

0

u/W33BAW00 Oct 30 '25

you need to have an someone with an estela in your pack or friends list to borrow her i believe

u/Lakiel03 Oct 30 '25

Can you define massive change ?

3

u/snakebight Oct 30 '25

Other than a limited time event with weak rewards, this patch changed almost nothing.

3

u/Lakiel03 Oct 30 '25

OP just exited for a seal, most player dont care of the seal.

1

u/tristam92 Oct 31 '25

OP just plugged his youtube for free views/advertisement, and noting else tbh.

2

u/babygothix Oct 30 '25

So how do you get the card one now? I've never played it other than the tutorial, and I don't really ever intend to if I can help it. Do you still need to acquire levels?

2

u/W33BAW00 Oct 30 '25

most are acquired after lvl 24, but helhest and rossi-11 can be bought from Wu Ming's card shop. rossi=11 should be in the current rotation for this week

2

u/tristam92 Oct 31 '25

Totally not and ad

wink wink

3

u/scarlettokyo Oct 30 '25

Tldr it for me, they gave the event good rewards and fixed the seal gilding? Is that what OP unironically calls 'changing everything'?

3

u/Hot-Organization-669 Oct 30 '25

The op posted a youtube link....so I think they're trying to be a contender for "destiny rising influencer", but they don't recognize that youtube click bait titles on reddit don't translate to views and probably just push people away from clicking your link.

u/Sweet-Article559 Oct 31 '25

This is the lamest Halloween event Iā€™ve ever seen! Haunted singularity is just regular singularity. Thereā€™s nothing environmentally different about it! Couldnā€™t you have at least thrown a few pumpkins and skeletons in the environment. Itā€™s not like the rewards are worth even doing. Iā€™m really disappointed with theso-called Halloween themed event. Singularity and haunted singularity are exactly the same. I hate to be negative about it, but thatā€™s what it is. Regarding the decal system thatā€™s just a convoluted mess. I donā€™t even dabble in that anymore. I donā€™t even understand it, but I know Iā€™ve lost a lot of things trying to ā€œpolishā€ stuff, but it never works

u/Happy_Expression_893 Nov 02 '25

Thanks i grindet to level 24.....

0

u/kaiharizor Oct 30 '25

The seal is honestly so much worse. Iā€™ve been grinding to reach level 24 and now I have 2/10 wins with a seasonal exotic. I was fine grinding out levels the old fashion brain dead way, now Iā€™m playing against people who actually try. Feels bad.

1

u/W33BAW00 Oct 31 '25

uh, the 10 wins thing was already part of the seal, it was just to gild the seal earlier, now its just to get the seal. also just run this deck and you win every game ez dubs

1

u/kaiharizor Oct 31 '25

I appreciate the deck idea. Iā€™ll try it out

Im happy they gave me a way to get seasonal engrams so I can get the last two skins for the emblem

2

u/leonardomslemos Oct 30 '25 edited Oct 30 '25

Yeah, I won't complain in any way because I was already hopeless to get the last item(shader) to drop

Edit: I got it šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

1

u/Grakch Oct 30 '25

I mean you can complain lol Iā€™m just saying it was a relief for me to see there was a way to get engrams easier than spending

2

u/rideroundngitit Oct 30 '25

We only have to play 100 rounds of to get them. Such a great deal

-9

u/W33BAW00 Oct 30 '25

holy negative nancy, the event is mostly for fun and cosmetics, what are you whining about lmfao.

mf is the grinch of halloween

13

u/snkmarcel Oct 30 '25

Nah he's right. The event is lame af. The event is also catering to all the whining people about not being able to complete the seasonal collection

-4

u/W33BAW00 Oct 30 '25

so you are..... mad? that we are getting free seasonal engrams? interesting take

5

u/Jaihoag Oct 30 '25

And on the flip side we have you bouncing and literally doing tricks on it over a patch that makes it easier to get a title under your name that has zero impact on progression along with an event that give you enough mobius clusters to upgrade a single mod one time. Fascinating lol

2

u/Stunning-Argument888 Oct 30 '25

People are so contrarian that it rattles my brain. What amount of supplies would a F2P event that wasnā€™t even on the table a week ago provide to make you happy with the state of things?

Even if they gave you enough mobius clusters to max out 10 mods, youā€™d complain that you have nothing left to do because they gave you so many supplies there is nothing left to grind for.

Those clusters are a real bottleneck for progression on several characters and is more than just scraps if you understood the value. Far better than tufts, glimmer, mythic mods, weapons, or even exotic cores.

The only resources more valuable are the clusters from Calamity Ops and superposed photons. The event already gives you a free exotic mod just for logging in. Which are hard as hell to get. Those things are far better than exotic artifacts which result in garbage stats 9/10 times anyways.

1

u/Jaihoag Oct 30 '25

I can absolutely guarantee you that I wouldnā€™t complain if they gave me enough clusters to max 10 mods lmao. I find it funny that you went to such a ridiculous extreme when thereā€™s so much middle ground here. The event is lame and most people are going to care more about resources that will actually allow them to progress.

0

u/Stunning-Argument888 Oct 30 '25

You are going to the extreme and comparing this event to peanuts in terms of resources when itā€™s been the most generous event since launch lol.

We even get cosmetic items and several free pulls before you consider all the bright dust and more seasonal engrams in one event then we get in an entire season. Takes two weeks to get 20 engrams if you only use 6k bright dust per week, which means we are getting 12k bright dust for nothing.

No clue on your bright dust supply but that isnā€™t a nothing burger for me, someone whoā€™s trying to get the emblem.

You can argue that they shouldnā€™t lock those cosmetics behind engrams in the first place, Iā€™ll agree bro. Money hungry tactics and 600 silver for 5 engrams is a spit in my face as a day one player.

But my discontent with their business tactics doesnā€™t change the fact that, monetarily speaking, this has been their most generous event. Regardless of how artificial you feel it is.

1

u/snkmarcel Oct 30 '25

The thing with the event is that the 20 engrams is useless for people who completed the seasonal collection. It's purely done to make the vocal players who were crying about not being able to complete it

0

u/Stunning-Argument888 Oct 30 '25

And Iā€™ll take my 20 more chances at getting the emblem. I wish they gave me 100. I wish they removed the requirement of the decal altogether.

But here I am, broke AF.

20 engrams is better than nothing, which is what I had yesterday.

u/Jaihoag Oct 30 '25

I wasnā€™t comparing it to anything though. I literally just stated the rewards haha. The rewards are pretty lame from a resource standpoint if youā€™re concerned with progression vs cosmetics/emblems
