summation
-
The lack of craftable weapons in Destiny 2's Dungeons is a missed opportunity for better farming.
-
Guaranteed two drops per dungeon encounter, with one being a weapon, would greatly improve the loot system.
-
By guaranteeing a weapon for each dungeon encounter, Destiny 2 dungeons will become much more valuable to farm.
As a looter shooting game, Destiny 2 It offers several activities where players can farm items and weapons to their liking. These range from standard strikes and Gambit or Crucible matches to raids and dungeons designed to be endgame experiences for well-geared players. Raids and Dungeons both reward armor and guns, making them some of the most powerful weapons in the game. Destiny 2This is the VS Chill Inhibitor from Vesper's Host. Raids are geared toward granting and crafting red-rimmed weapons, but dungeon guns can generally only be augmented, which can be problematic when considering drop rates and loot pools. But there is one clear way. Destiny 2 To make the dungeon much better.
After Bungie's recent post about the future, it seems highly unlikely that craftable weapons will be added to dungeons. Destiny 2 There was a plan that the weapons for Episode 3 could not be manufactured. This would have been a great solution to the limited drops and bloated loot pools of dungeons. This can become a growing pain in farming as players have to deal with random rolls for each weapon they obtain. So the next best option is to not only guarantee two drops per dungeon encounter, but at least one of them is a weapon.

Destiny 2 now needs to crack the bullet it's been dodging for so long
Destiny 2 is currently in its darkest moment, and a big decision must finally be made if it is to get out of the woods.
Meeting in the Dungeon Destiny 2 There is usually a loot pool of 5-6 possible items, often including 2-3 pieces of armor and 2-3 guns. Additionally, the item does not drop from every encounter, but rather is split between various encounters or bosses within the dungeon. This means that it's impossible to unlock every dungeon drop even after 4 or 5 runs, let alone finding a god roll for each weapon you want.
with Destiny 2Frontier's armor overhaul could also impact dungeon armor, making it even more desirable than it is now. This means that players will have to farm for the longest amount of time to get everything they want in a given dungeon. However, a major change to drops in Dungeons could be implemented to fix all of these issues, and that would be making each boss or encounter drop two items. The difference with double loot is that these items have a forced category, and the best way to handle this is to either ensure the loot is split between a weapon and an armor piece, or at least one weapon and then a second random item.
Guaranteed weapons will make Destiny 2 dungeons worth farming.
This approach will handle player feedback very well. Especially afterward. Destiny 2The double loot week in Vesper's Host is Bungie's gesture to compensate for time wasted on farming and Chill Inhibitor amid the perk weight controversy. At the time, many players were vocal that it was worth farming because you could get double loot from a dungeon, due to the massive loot pool and the very small chance of getting certain items. Instead of permanent double loot, which might be the solution, just having one guaranteed weapon and a second drop per encounter would be sufficient.
In theory, double loot is enabled, but if you don't have a guaranteed weapon, it's still possible to end the run without a weapon. Since this gun cannot and will never be crafted, giving one guaranteed weapon (and possibly a guaranteed armor piece) for each encounter is killing two birds with one stone. Destiny 2 The dungeon will be worth farming right away. In any case, it will be worth a lot more than it is now.
Destiny 2's Heresy is scheduled to release early next year, and considering all of the game's more pressing issues right now, it's hard to think Bungie will make these changes before then. However, the release of Frontier will add this system to dungeons, making them a more desirable opportunity for players to spend time in them.
