This week at Bungie, areas.
Welcome back to the TWAB. How have you been? It might seem a bit odd to ask you that since we are speaking in this medium to a broad audience, but the important thing is we care about you and hope you are doing well.
It’s another exciting week in the world of Destiny. The story continues to play out through Sever missions; no spoilers here but it’s been fun watching you experience the story as it unfolds week over week. This week’s Nightfall is a tough one in The Corrupted, but if you rise to the challenge, you have your first shot at earning Horror’s Least Pulse Rifle. On the PvP side, this week is your first chance to take advantage of short cooldowns with Solar 3.0 by having some fun in Mayhem.
Control Those Zones
It’s a simple premise but there are a few things you should know to help your fireteams be more successful and strategic.
Stacking players on the zones is going to capture them far quicker than trying to go at it solo. It can be a little easier to slip one player behind enemy lines to try to take a zone, but they are going to have to pull some heroics for longer periods of time. Controlling an area and being able to safely gather three or more Guardians is the most efficient way to cap a zone. Just watch out for a well-placed Nova Bomb!
Capture Times
- 1 Guardian: 22.5 Seconds
- 2 Guardians: 10 Seconds
- 3+ Guardians: 7.5 Seconds
The initial capture is going to give you one point and you will get two points for every fifteen seconds you hold a zone after that. So, keeping a zone has more value than initially capturing it.
The first team to 125 points wins! If a team falls too far behind and we detect that even if they held two zones for the rest of the match, they wouldn’t get enough points to catch up, a mercy rule will come into effect.
Those are the basics. We will be monitoring the conversation and looking forward to all of the feedback you provide on how this mode plays in Destiny 2.
Speaking of controlling zones… tomorrow, Trials of Osiris will feature the Zone Capture variant. It will also be a Trials rank bonus weekend so jump in and make Saint-14 proud!
Pride Strike Team
Hi friends! We are back this week with our next installment from the Pride Strike Team: The History of Pride at Bungie.
Back in the Before Times, Bungie sponsored the Seattle Pride parade several years in a row. It started in 2017, shortly after the Bungie Diversity Committee was formed, and we were both a sponsor and participant for that year, 2018, and 2019. This would have continued into 2020, but the parade was canceled with the start of the pandemic. In 2018, we also released Bungie’s first inclusion, diversity, and equity pin/emblem combo, the Pride pin and True Colors emblem, as well as a Bungie Pride T-shirt, which you can see in these pictures. In 2019 we collaborated with several other studios to join the parade.


Beyond this, we’ve got some fun plans coming for the future of celebrating Pride at Bungie. We can’t quite speak to them yet, but we promise they will be…. colorful. 😊
xoxo,
Bungie Pride Strike Team
Player Support Report
Season of the FEELS

Another week another patch, that is four in a row if you are keeping count. And you know who is keeping count? Our Player Support team. They are keeping a close eye on what ongoing issues are active and are here to keep you up to speed on what we are currently tracking.
This is their report.
4.1.0.3 RESOLVED ISSUES
Earlier this week, Hotfix 4.1.0.3 was released to the world. Below is a list of some of the issues that were resolved with this hotfix:
- The Hrafnagud ornament for Celestial Nighthawk was unavailable to equip.
- Some players were missing Void and Arc subclass unlocks.
- Players could not use Armor Synthesis.
AIRBORNE EFFECTIVENESS ISSUE
We are currently investigating an issue where some Exotic armor pieces are not granting the advertised airborne effectiveness stat correctly when equipped. The affected Exotic armor pieces are as follows:
- Sealed Ahamkara Graps
- Rampant Lion
- peacekeeper
- Peregrine Greaves
- Wings of Sacred Dawn
- This is working correctly but doesn’t state in the description that the bonus is only active with the Tome of Dawn Aspect equipped.
GCX EMBLEM DISTRIBUTION
Players who have donated towards the GCX celebration should expect all donation emblems to be distributed around the week of June 27, 2022.
KNOWN ISSUES
- Please note that the Flawless Thoughtstealer Triumph requires players to complete all encounters in the Duality dungeon without any members of the fireteam dying.
- The Tears of Contrition Scout Rifle displays the incorrect magazine options when Shaping the weapon at the Relic, and upon Shaping it, it is displayed incorrectly.
- The Without Remorse Shotgun does not appear in Collections.
- The Conflux legend Lost Sector requires The Rift Legend Lost Sector to be unlocked.
- The Leviathan destination weekly challenge does not progress for some players.
- Certain weapon damage buffs are not functioning correctly in PvP, including the Will Given Form buff from the Ager’s Scepter catalyst.
Whatever Happens, Happens

Sat: Happy TWABsday, Guardians! This week we are back with two neat movies and some art that might knock your socks off. First up on deck for the movies this week, we are watching a trailer that was done in the style of one of my favorite anime. There is just something about merging those two worlds into one that just works. And last but certainly not least, we have a beautiful showcase of some of the raids in Destiny 2. We will shout this until the end of time, but the Bungie Raid team is pretty incredible, and seeing it from your point of view is also 10/10.
Movie of the Week: Destiny Bebop
Movie of the Week: The Beauty of Raids
Have Hammer, Will Explore

Hippy: Another week, another slew of amazing creations from the Destiny community. The Seasonal story brings all the feels—the laughs, the cries, the “who the heck!?”—so we figured some comfort was well-deserved. Do you know who else deserves some comfort? My boo Eris, so it’s to the spa to de-stress and unwind. There is also some sweet Titan art that a lot of you seemed to love and as a Titan main, I can’t say I’m mad at it.
Enough talk; let’s get right into this week’s art, shall we?
Art of the week: The Other Half
Art of the week: Destiny’s Sunbreaker
Bbb-BONUS Art of the Week: Let There Be Leisure (Warning for use of strong language in the original poster’s caption.)
Don’t forget to tag us in your creations when that inspiration hits you. Be sure to use #AOTW, #MOTW, and #Destiny2Art to make sure nothing is missed!
Have a great Friday tomorrow and a great weekend!
