The Legacy collection is also on there from June 4, so new destiny players with PS+ will have access to almost entire Destiny content up to FS, including several dungeons.

Great, might check it out again. Still want to finish the fight.

Do I have to play lightfall before TFS?

I haven't had PS+ in a while, is it free just for the month of June or free in perpetuity once acquired (like standalone games)?

EDIT: Thanks for the responses! I moved to PC but I have a friend who has refused to come back to D2 because they're behind on expacs. Maybe with the newest expac they'll come back for the story and I (or the game) can convince them to stick around.

The next DLC comes out in about 2 months but it’s definitely worth it to dive in and play the final shape campaign.

Big picture, depends of you and your friend are wanting loot mainly or to get into the story and systems. If you want to get into the game, legendary campaigns from witch queen and light fall will get you a couple of fun exotics and are great intros into the story that normally aren’t free. Final shape would also be nice story wise before the episodes. This route will also get you some fun destination weapons and armor, which are especially nice from final shape imo.

As for loot, I would try to get as many exotics that are behind paywalls as possible. Final shape first, so you can do dual destiny and get exotic class items and others from that expansion (I.e khovostov) bc they are recent and pretty good. I’d then hit episodes for their loot and exotics since they will be going away for the most part.

I dont think there is anything that you cannot miss bc typically you are able to grab all the exotics after as well, but maybe if there are some specific rolls of episode weapons and/or holofoils you want

Xurs selling choir of one atm - id farm some coins before Tuesday and buy it. By far my most used weapon since it came out, and this season with free volatile it was extra juiced.

Oh wait I'm not sure if he can use it without TFS though. I'd check on that.

Other than that I'm not sure. Maybe some of the ROTN weapons, but there aren't many that are really all that potent. Not anywhere near into the light where almost every single weapon was great.

Idk if he can buy the guns from banshee that were from the weightgate shit, but he should grab multimach at least which was iron banner and not TFS content.

Go for some dungeon exotics maybe like spires hierarchy of needs, it's getting a nice buff. All the other stuff I can think of really is TFS locked so I'd just go for exotic weapons and armor more than anything.

I've done the best I can but I'm slightly confused by point two "exotics we must not miss" would you mind elaborating?

1: If you have max rank at rahool already you should buy the final shape and Reverent exotic armours you care about most(or all of them if you can afford it)

2: play though the campaign to unlock post campaign content, I'd suggest probably playing on normal as it's faster unless you can't get new exotics from rahool and desperately want one of the final shape exotics

3: in terms of what will stay and what won't generally: you'll lose access to prismatic and any missions, but you'll keep any weapons or armour (including exotics)

4: ergo sum and the exotic class items are very fun and powerful, but there is an extreme amount of rng around them and you are unlikely to get a roll you will use consistently so I would suggest ignoring them until you have nothing else to do EDIT: DO NOT GRIND EXOTIC CLASS ITEMS, I forgot they only work on prismatic and you lose access to the subclass if you lose the dlc, so they're worthless unless you buy the final shape in the future

5: don't worry about unlocking prismatic fragments/aspects as you wouldn't be able to use the subclass after July 22 unless you buy the dlc again

6: kbostov is a very strong and fun exotic kinetic primary but it requires a fair amount of grinding, I'd say it's probably worth it, but use a guide to make sure you're being as efficient as possible

7: look up the "season pass pass"(not a typo) extension for your Firefox browser(if you don't have Firefox it's worth installing just for this), it'll allow you to claim past season pass rewards and all past season passes from echos to heresy are currently free but you can't access them, this extension allows you to claim items from past season passes, including the rank one exotics whitch you can get regardless of wether you played that season or not

8: grab still hunt and microcosm, both are strong exotics that are pretty quick to get if you know what you're doing

9: once you've done everything above I'd say your best priority is either grinding pale heart weapons/armor and ergo sum/exotic class items (all can be framed by playing machmade overthrow in the pale heart so it's quite efficient overall), OR:

10: if you're confident raiding you could try and get some loot from the raid, it's quite a difficult raid(especially the Verity encounter) but the final checkpoint can be done no coms if that's more your speed

I think that's everything I can think of but feel free to ignore anything I said here, I just wanted to give an outline of what I thought the best path would be, and if there's anything I've missed because it's been a long time since I played final shape or if you have any questions just let me know

You can focus high stat armour (60+) at Failsafe with Echo engrams

If you add it to a loadout it still give them access to Prismatic there’s a certain method you have to do though. Let me get a capture and show you how to do it and I’ll link it in a bit

The main thing you should focus on right now is just progressing through the star chart. Do the regular missions, unlock junctions, stuff like that. You can usually do quests as they unlock. Sometimes you'll have to farm missions for crafting materials. Keep an eye out (or check the wiki) for missions that drop endo so you can upgrade your mods. Having an optimized build isn't super important that early on so you kinda just slap whatever you have on and you'll probably be okay

The new player experience is honestly kind of abysmal so you should never feel bad about asking for help. Personally I think you should do some of the earlier missions solo, otherwise sometimes you'll get high level players blasting through the level without letting you learn the feel of the game.

I'm at work right now but I'll try to dm you later to help out

Newbie advice for fellow newbie. (300+ hours, most of star chart unlocked, MR 11, just finished The New War, about 10 Warframes unlocked.)

Focus on progressing through star chart and unlocking all the planets, etc. Do the main mission quests as they become available, but don’t rush into The New War without first developing your Railjack with crew members and various upgrades. Also take time to farm up and build your Voidrig Necramech before you progress much further past The New War.

Take it slow and enjoy the game. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Some frames are tactically helpful: Ivara for invisbility for Spy missions and Rescue missions. Titania for cheesing quite a few really challenging Mastery Rankup tests. Mag for cheesing EVERY Junction boss. Everything else is up to you and your playstyle presences. Enjoy!

Bungie stated that the last 4 fragments will be unlocked after the day 1 raid will be completed, so likely either after the daily reset on Sunday or on the weekly reset, next Tuesday.

It'll unlock when the raid comes out

They are literally to op to use in raid

Raid.

Yeah, I think Bungie kept them disabled until after the raid gets cleared. They’ll probably automatically unlock at some point after that.

This got asked once before by a person named soulgutter. Such for Crucible most wanted here and you should find it.

bungie loves hanging guns on the wall to use later, but then they get too busy hanging up more guns on the wall that they run out of time to use the original guns

I figured the Final Shape was literally a shape, maybe formed by 3 elements. The traveler, the ring of pyramids, and a 3rd element, creating a shape somewhat close in resemblance to bungie's 7th Column

Oh a neat thing is she’s associated with Venus and we first find the Ishtar collective on Venus

That’s it. Bungie said the next subclass does strange things with physics. I bet it’s some between quantum realities shit. Let’s us control things across dimensions, and enter the ethereal realm the witness did.

Ah yes, the Final Shape subclass McGuffin lol.

Calling it: the last Darkness subclass is pink-hued and we'll need to master it in order to breach the barrier.

A pink, fractal-filled barrier which is surprisingly reminiscent of the locked flower/vagina doors in Savathûn's throne world. Just saying...

Bungie dismantled Chekhov's Gun a long time ago.

Guardian: Sir, permission to leave the tower?

Zavala: On what grounds?

Guardian: Sir, to give the Witness back its bomb.

Zavala: Permission granted.

The terraformed ship the raid takes place on should do the trick

I got progress on my triumphs and the daily yesterday (1 game was Rift). I had Rift > Clash > Control (all counted).

Did you attempt to carry the spark at any point or were you only going for cannon kills? I'm willing to bet unless you get one of the qualifiers for Rift "objective" completion it may treat you like an AFK and not give progress for the game.

Rift (based on what I've noticed with the IB version) counts objective progress as carrying the spark, dunking the spark, and killing the enemy spark runner ("protecting" your own runner seems to be inconsistent with counting as "objective" completion).

A side complaint, Scorched Rift really really sucks. It is absolute stalemate usually until the time runs out because it is so easy to kill spark runners with the scorch cannon, so it's a constant trade the entire game.

Scorched/Rift counted for the triumph for me. I did one yesterday and it gave me 1/7. 

This is ANOTHER of many stupid mistakes Bungie made due to them NOT testing anything. The reward tier system and solstice scorch cannon only rewards per kills mainly. Complete was of time and another screw up related to the untested reward tier grade system.

It was not working for me then I figured out I had to go to the Play Now section in the Solstice menu and run it from there.

It worked for me.

It sounds like the age old bug where Crucible stops tracking for triumphs and bounties. It's a known bug by Bungie ever since beginning of D2. Rebooting usually fixes it, sometimes requiring multiple reboots though.
