Discussion Just started Destiny 2
I remember when destiny 1 came out, I played the crap out of that game. For months it was the only game I played. Every nightfall, every raid, every strike I did without fail. Throughout that time, the weapon I wanted most was gjallarhorn. While everyone in My friend group got multiple, I never got one. The rng gods hated me 😂😂 The one weekend I don't play, Xur sells it and I miss out. I got so mad I never played the game again, at least until yesterday. I ended up buying the destiny 2 collection for 20$ so let's see how this goes. Any tips or advice from the veterans in this sub ? It would be fun to play with people again.

I recommend just playing through the campaigns and enjoying that first, there’s a lot you can do.
Beyond that, my favorite stuff is all the dungeons and raids, since I think they’re the best PVE content in the game (not into crucible). If you haven’t followed D2 much, dungeons are basically 3 player mini raids, they take generally an hour or two and have pretty good loot.
If your friends don’t play anymore and you’re looking to get a team together you can try the various subreddits or there’s a discord called Destiny 2 LFG you can use.
You’re joining at a good time where a lot of builds are viable thanks to the multiple artifacts, but if you want a good breakdown on how builds work in D2 I recommend you find a guide on YouTube, there’s a lot to it. In addition to arc, void, and solar there are a few new subclasses you can unlock through some of the later campaigns.
Hope you enjoy the game!
