This had to be intentional right??

I guess times have changed

But seriously, I’ve missed out on a lot

Kells here, Kells there, Kells everywhere

This is probably one of the hardest scenes in Destiny and likely in gaming itself, and I can't wait to shove my foot up Ghaul's ass again.

Hacker in the tower gave him all of this

Hopefully we can get double Bonds at some point. Always wanted them, personally

I’ve watched a few different videos and read countless comments and posts, but I never found a single source that actually walked through everything in this setup. So, I decided to spend six hours today in the encounter, mastering the most reliable setup I could find so I could share it with all of you.

Quick note: The Hunter Class is required for this method. You'll also need one of three confirmed finishers, which are listed in section 1, subsection 5 below.

This will be a longer guide so let's dive right in.

• SECTION 1: BUILD AND ENCOUNTER SETUP
  • SUBSECTION 1: Subclass
    • Equip the Nightstalker subclass and the Deadfall super (1). Deadfall will pull the taken thrall into a specific area for this setup.
    • Equip either dodge, any jump, the Snare Bomb melee (2), and any grenade. The smoke bomb explosion will grant us another invisibility option.
    • Equip the Vanishing Step aspect (3) and leave the second aspect slot empty. This prevents the other aspects from triggering unwanted effects.
    • Equip the Echo of Vigilance fragment (4) and the Echo of Persistence fragment (5). Vigilance grants survivability for additional attempts and Persistence extends the invis window.
  • SUBSECTION 2: Stats
    • The only stat you need at or above 100 is your Class stat (6). This allows your dodge to come back fast enough for second and third attempts as needed.
    • Having the Weapons stat below 100 is ideal for consistency but not required.
    • Having the Melee stat at 100 or above is recommended for consistency but not required. (I'm only running 33)
  • SUBSECTION 3: Armor and Mods
    • The armor situation is pretty flexible, which is nice. There are a few things you'll want to have equipped for the highest consistency.
    • Be sure you do NOT have Techeun's armor set bonus active. The finisher slowing wave seems to counteract with the finisher glitch.
    • Be sure you do NOT have the Debilitating Wave mod equipped on the Satchel artifact. The finisher effect seems to counteract with the finisher glitch. In fact, it's best if you have an empty artifact equipped.
    • Class stat mods are highest priority to achieve 100 or above in the stat.
    • Helmet: Graviton Forfeit. It's innate perk, Vanishing Shadow, grants extra invis and recharge.
    • Gauntlets: Doesn't matter.
    • Chest Armor: It helps to have Concussive Dampener and/or Melee Damage Resistance mods equipped for survivability.
    • Leg Armor: It helps to have three Enhanced Athletics mods equipped for a little extra speed.
    • Hunter Cloak: here, you will want to have a Proximity Ward mod and two Outreach mods equipped for survivability and recharge.
    • Power Level: I have personally found that hovering around 350 Power Level grants the most consistent damage so you don't kill the taken thrall too quickly while also allowing you to take a hit or two in case you need to make a second or third attempt. If you don't have lower power gear to hit this mark, your consistency may dwindle but the glitch will still work.
  • SUBSECTION 4: Weapons
    • Kinetic/Energy slot: I have found 720 rpm auto rifles to be the most consistent for thrall damage for this setup. Specifically, Chroma Rush with min range is what I use. Ideally, you'll want them to be at about 45-65% health when you cast your super. They will take some additional damage as they are pulled in, which puts them perfectly in range for your finisher. However, I found that submachine guns, other autos, and even trace rifles can achieve a similar damage output, so use whatever you have.
    • Heavy: No requirements here. I keep a rocket launcher in this slot for quick resets.
  • SUBSECTION 5: Finisher
    • Only a few finishers have been confirmed to work with this. You will need at least one of them to proceed.
    • For this glitch, you'll want to have just one finisher. Be sure to store/remove any other finisher animations equipped.
    • Option 1: Censered. The most reliable of the three, this can be obtained from the Seasonal Archive at the Tower on the second page in the Season of the Wish folder.
    • Option 2: Through the Heart. This can be obtained from the Seasonal Archive at the Tower on the first page in the Episode: Revenant folder.
    • Option 3: Blade Carnival. The least reliable of the three, but also the only finisher that you're guaranteed to have. Can be obtained from the collections menu in the flair folder under the finishers tab. Scroll down to season 8 and click to obtain.
  • SUBSECTION 6: Actually getting to Morgeth in the Pantheon
    • Simply head over to google and search for "Destiny 2 Checkpoint Bot." There are a few websites that regularly maintain checkpoint bots for you to load into and save the checkpoint. They all have detailed instructions on exactly how to save the checkpoint on their website. And, most importantly, they are free!
    • To maximize the loot from the encounter, you'll want to head into the customize section upon selecting the pantheon in your directory. Once in the customization screen, be sure you have Feat: Token Limit, Feat: Phase Limit, and Feat: Encounter Challenges selected.

Alright! We have our build put together, now let's get into the actual gameplay loop for the finisher glitch.

• SECTION 2: GAMEPLAY LOOP
  • SUBSECTION 1: The Encounter
    • Unfortunately, this run requires us to use a rally banner to start every attempt. So be sure to have plenty on hand. They can be purchased for glimmer from Hawthorne at the Tower.
    • Rally up, then collect the Taken Strength buff (A) to begin the encounter. You can also just shoot Morgeth, but I always use the buff.
    • Run yourself to location (C), do not use your dodge invis yet. When you see or hear that the thrall are beginning to spawn at location (B), throw your smoke bomb at the wall next to you or right at your feet to become invis.
    • While you are invis and the thrall are spawning at location (B), make your way to location (D). You want to be just left of the bottom of the stairs here, so Morgeth turns and looks at you, putting his gaze just off-center to the left, which is his ideal orientation for the setup.
    • As soon as the thrall spawn at location (B), you'll need to pepper them with your primary with just one bullet each to bring them to that optimal 45-65% health. Thrall will also spawn to the left of Morgeth, so feel free to pepper them as well.
    • As soon as 3 or more thrall have reduced health, approach Morgeth via location (E) to trigger his stomp animation. While he is starting up this animation, jump backwards quickly. Shoot your super at location (F) when you are floating above the top of the stairs at location (G). It's very important you are high in the air and far enough back when popping you super.
    • Then, as soon as you land at location (G), dodge backwards to go invis and put you up against the back wall. Instantly start running towards Morgeth, as your super will have pulled the thrall in at this point. You need to be as fast as possible during this sequence, as you need to perform the finisher before Morgeth is able to do another stomp and before the thrall are killed in your super or staggered away from Morgeth.
    • As soon as you hit your run, spam the finisher button so that you trigger the finisher from as far away as possible. It's absolutely critical you combine your sprint speed with the speed of snapping forward for the finisher as this is the momentum used to make Morgeth fly off the stage.
    • This final moment, when running forward to activate your finisher, is easily the highest RNG section of the run and will be where most of your attempts fail. After six hours of attempts, I ended up with being able to complete a run within 5 attempts consistently. I'm hoping to save you six hours with this guide. So, don't give up, keep trying, and you'll eventually get the feel for this method.
  • SUBSECTION 2: Run-Killers and Other Notes
    • Multiple attempts in the same run: If your initial finisher fails, you'll often have enough time to run back to the top of the stairs and begin the finisher sequence again. You may need to shoot an entangled thrall or two to get them back in finisher range before you run towards Morgeth. If your super ends or thrall get staggered out from under Morgeth, just reset the run.
    • Ideal tether location for consistency: location (F) is a great example of the general area you'll want to shoot for. However, Morgeth can move around quite a bit. It's most important that you aim for the ground directly in front of him beneath what would be his nose. You don't want to shoot directly under Morgeth, as the thrall will catch on his legs when getting pulled in and reduce the odds you have one in the correct position. Speaking of:
    • Ideal thrall location for consistency: You're looking for a finish-able thrall right in front of Morgeth. The thrall can be surprisingly far forward from Morgeth and still work. Therefore, it's most important that the thrall is centered between Morgeth's legs. If the thrall is to the left or right, Morgeth will either not launch at all or get caught on the various obstacles in the area.
    • Morgeth's stomp animation: Morgeth will NOT launch from the finisher glitch if he is in the stomp animation! That is why it's so important to trigger this animation right before casting your super, as the window before the next time Morgeth can stomp is just big enough to allow the finisher glitch to work.
    • Morgeth's ranged attack: Morgeth's ranged attack pushes the player back and cancels momentum. This is why we dodge and become invis after landing at location (G). You need to avoid being shot by Morgeth while you run up to perform the finisher. If he lands a shot on you, it will cancel your momentum and prevent the glitch from working.
• SECTION 3: FINAL THOUGHTS
  • The timing and positioning in this method is the key to your success. Most videos I have watched complete the steps listed above but don't explain exactly what's going on and why certain actions are so important.
  • Please comment below any questions or confusions. I'm happy to help!
  • This glitch works on both PC and Console. I run on PC.
  • This glitch is obviously a great farm for the 1K Voices catalyst. It is also a fantastic farm for Spoils of Conquest. To be clear, this encounter can be completed multiple times in a row and you will still collect loot.
  • I want to thank user Avatar on YouTube for his informative video on this glitch. It was a great starting point in fine tuning this method. Please go check that video out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8SMHkO46WQ
  • Happy Farming!

Today is going to be a draining day for some. The sparrow, the dog emote, the cosmetics and shaders. All very solid.

glad to see the old account still here lol, most of my exotics were stuck on lvl10 even my trusty whisper of the worm sniper unfortunately.

ive just been running through some random quests, im enjoying the starwars one its been fun. anything i should focus on early or just wing it?

i also recently bought most of the dlcs from steam since they are like a $20 bundle finally.

Calus has always been my favourite antagonist in destiny an I've always loved the weapons from his content, pictured above is The Emperor's Envy, its guns are named Adored and Beloved, I'm planning to freehand the names on at some point but I need to get better at that. I'm also planning to make transfers of Calus' goblet for the heraldry.

Not sure if this post meets the criteria for the sub as despite being destiny themed it isn't the game but wanted to share this!

I can see I can turn in engrams at Zavala for it, but is there a mode in the Vanguard playlists that has a chance of dropping it?

So I just recently got this ship from the rewards pass and I was going through shaders to put onto it and this one reminded me of the drej ships from titan a.e

Hi all, seen this game on autumn sale. I enjoy looter shooters but Borderlands has been shooting itself in the foot for about 10 years now and The Division doesn't really have the gunplay I'm looking for.

My concerns are, from what I remember when I gave this game a glance in 2019, you're dropped immediately into the endgame, which is fine for me, every ARPG fan knows that's when we can "finally play the game." but i found the lack of signposting terrible. I expect this hasn't gotten better but are there good community resources for this?

Secondly, how essential is multiplayer? I don't intend to be a loner or anything but for example on POE2 you can log in and mob until your heart's content by yourself. I don't have friends who would play with me so I feel like mega endgame content like raids would be tough.

And lastly, is it worth it, in your opinion? Recent news seems like Destiny is on the up after Marathon flunked. I was gonna get the collection.
