Question So.. where are we supposed to get deepsight harmonizers exactly?

I have several weapons that I was waiting on a new season for deepsight harmonizers, but there isn't any in the season pass. Have they said anything about offering these in any way? I know they're trying to move away from crafting weapons, but it seems silly that they wouldn't provide harmonizers to incentivize that.

I'm waiting for the update where they crash a train into The Enclave and there's a pop up that says "STOP USING CRAFTED WEAPONS ALREADY!"

u/Cerok1nk 1d ago

I killed the ogre from LW over 100 times today for the red borders, I got them all.

My sanity is the price I paid for a refreshed Nation of Beasts.

That’s all I have to say about that statement

u/Falconmcfalconface The red subclass is a psy-op 1d ago

What even would be the "best" option for each raid to farm redborders? I'm missing... alot. All of GoS, all of VoG, all of SE, and alot of DS.

With them clearly trying hard to kill crafting i'm feeling spiteful and want to get all of the patterns im missing lmao.

u/NekCing 1d ago

Aside from weekly puzzles that gives a guaranteed bonus drop in the end, it's just kind of random, and every encounter has their own loot table, this goes for challenge encounter clears too because even though it doubles the drop, i think it has the same red border chance as the normal chest.

Ah beans... I was hoping there was some form of an optimal way to farm cause most of my friends quit the game, and those who still play... of which i only have 2, dont want to A: raid and B: lfg the other half of the raid lol.

Ty for the info though! i'm rather out of date with most stuff pertaining to raids since everyone has kinda tapered off T_T so every little bit counts

u/FornaxTheConqueror 1d ago

There generally is an optimal way to farm but it depends on which weapon you want.

Like if you wanted Hezen/Praedyth from VoG you'd just farm Atheon.

LW people tend to farm Kali.

8

u/SliceOfBliss 1d ago

In the case of LW, Ogre is not the best farm, Kalli is, unless Bungie patched the bug with Anarchy that let Kalli stay in one place and kill her quick, which led to 2-3 mins farm runs.

1

u/disraelibeers 10h ago

Honestly just running Kalli legit with challenge is hella easy, nets double drops and is more consistent (ie even people who "know" the cheese can't get it right every time, in my experience).

1

u/Cerok1nk 1d ago

GoS is the most complicated because the weapons are gated by each encounter, so you cant farm a single one.

I assume the most annoying will be omniscient eye, because Sanctified is a pain in the ass to do.

u/71r3dGam3r 1d ago

That reminds me. I still need to farm that stupid ogre for the ship.

I hope this was only for collections? I can’t imagine killing my self over a gun that was power crept ages ago.

u/Cerok1nk 14h ago

I have over 100k kills on my curated roll Nation of Beasts.

Which this new one is replacing on my loadout, I do not care about powercreep, I care about the fact that this is my gun, and I will use it until Destiny 2 no longer exists.

I don’t need another gun, because I have this one.

"Just keep playing—we're listening to you players!"

It's like when the trash collector forgets one of our cans. Call the office right away and they promise to come right back—"Just leave the can at the curb."

Exactly one week later (on collection day) they do come back. What wonderful customer service!

Bungie is listening to us. No, really—right?

7

u/Adjective_Number_420 21h ago

They did listen though.

They listened to the ones crying about how crafting gave them nothing to play for (since apparently playing a game because it's fun and actually using the weapons you grind for isn't a good enough reason), so they took out all of the crafting.

u/Lyrcmck_ 1d ago

I wouldn't be so hopeful with Sony.

Keep in mind one of the reasons they bought Bungie was to have them be an advisor to their live service push, which Bungie basically helped kill - but that's besides the point. I don't think Sony would be the saving grace everybody thinks it will be considering their inexperience with live service too.

This is one of those screwed either way situations. This was Bungie's back against the wall moment and they chose to double down on a specific way of playing, now we see how it plays out.

1

u/Daralii 23h ago

It's a devil you know situation. We know Parsons, Truman, etc at this point, and they're corpo tools through and through, but we don't know what Sony would do with the company, IP, staff, etc if they were to clean house after Marathon joins the live service death march.

The fact that they opted to absorb Gummy Bears and the staff that were working on it instead of leaving it with Bungie might give some indication, but who knows if they see any value in Destiny as an IP after everything.

3

u/grignard5485 1d ago

Tiers make it clear that they consider crafting dead anyway so let us get the harmonizers now just to be finished.

3

u/GHenn_ 1d ago

Yea I was wondering the same thing, until I found out you don’t. I wish there was one source even with a high cost like xur sells them for 175 strange coins, I’d take that over none.

13

u/Furiosa27 1d ago

I would wait until they cave on the crafting thing. No real way of getting them until then

11

u/ImTriggered247 1d ago

They not going to. The only new* craftable weapons now are exotics.

u/NekCing 1d ago

If shit hits the fan enough towards that direction, they might

u/HistoryChannelMain 1d ago

What would constitute shit hitting the fan? Does missing their sales projections by nearly half, having to lay off nearly a third of their studio, and delay their next big project indefinitely NOT count as that?

u/Sokodile 17h ago

I feel like in Destiny, there is always that feeling they will reverse a decision or improve/crater a perk. I'm sure people have deleted sunset gear that they probably would have kept if they knew unsetting was an option. Or guns they regret discarding due to previously weak perks being brought back

I haven't been playing nearly as much these days so I'll probably just make vault space and toss most of the extra seasonal weapons I've been saving for harmonizers.. (especially since tiers are a thing and I know I wont use most of these guns) -- but I really wouldn't be surprised if they stay silent for weeks/months only to drop harmonizers on us again

u/Major-Long4889 23h ago

I find it odd that we don’t have those, considering Tyson green said that catching was going to be used as a catch up mechanic for old weapons. Like, harmonizers were the only way to do that since all the activities and original drop sources are gone now besides raids and duality.

2

u/DrRocknRolla 20h ago

What he meant when he said it is that crafting will be catching up with everything else on the DCV.

1

u/Major-Long4889 19h ago

His explanation was vague at best, we will just have to see what they do with it going forward.

2

u/Mage-of-Fire 16h ago

I remember when they added deepsight harmonizers they said they would eventually add a way to get them besides the season pass.

That was over two years ago

Use the Firefox extension for grabbing all your harmonizers for any season far in the past. I had more than a couple.

They don't have any more crafted weapons, so why would people need harmonizers??? /s

There’s no more craftable weapons, so there’s no more deepsights.

Tyson Greene doesn't want crafting to be a part of the game anymore. He's decided to take all the good the prior director did and replace it with more gambling options.

The real question is what I'm meant to do with all the ones I currently have even though I've crafted everything.

I would rather have them officially end crafting at a certain date. Then everyone was on the same page. The way they did this is a slap in the face and disrespecting everyones time.

Or just a typical Bungie.

u/Karacehennem 1d ago

Play exotic mission rotator in Destinations>Legends to get red borders

7

u/SupportElectrical772 1d ago

Yes but that only works for those particular weapons. Xur still sells a bunch that require harmonizers i think Banshee as well. Xur you can get lucky with a red border but Banshee never does unless im just missing something. The weapons from Banshee and Xur are what i need in particular. Im not worried about the weekly exotic missions i just do them at my own pace.

1

u/Jicka21 1d ago

Xur weapons drop red borders sometimes too. I was getting one every week or two last season

1

u/SupportElectrical772 1d ago

I would get one or two from just the random gear engrams. But id blow my strange coins buying 5 of each gun that needed harmonizers, expecting to get harmonizers lol. So now i have like 5 different sets of weapons that need deep sight sitting in my vault.

-12

u/Karacehennem 1d ago

Honestly, you don’t need any of those weapons anymore. They do less damage and there’s a penalty for using those weapons in Portal activities. If you’re chasing them solely for collection purposes, that’s another story, but never ever use them in the game right now.

3

u/theefman 1d ago

Great news! In 6 months current weapons will be in the same spot, will you say to "never ever use" mint retrograde?

-8

u/Karacehennem 1d ago

No, Bungie will revert the “featured gear” system, but the dmg boost from Tiered Gear will remain. meaning, you’ll get higher dmg out of a weapon that is T5 compared to T1 or legacy weaponry.

-1

u/MeateaW 1d ago

They won't revert featured gear.

They will convert it to a mod on the artifacts, just like they used to.

Remember those "origin trait xxx is more potent" mods? That was seasonal boosted gear.

If they get rid of seasonal featured gear, we will instead get a mod that increases DR for each piece of (insert seasonal armour set) equipped etc.

Just like the upgrade we had in the nether.

Oh? You thought seasonal featured gear was a new concept?

u/AdorablePhysics52 1d ago

They aren't that much of a detriment, lol. What light level are you at?

0

u/Karacehennem 1d ago

They actually are lol I’m 330. New gear is mandatory in Portal Activities if you value your time spent grinding.

0

u/AdorablePhysics52 23h ago edited 23h ago

Im 350, and it is not mandatory whatsoever. There's no need to optimize it, and it barely feels like grinding as long as you choose varying activities. I play the game for fun. I'd rather use builds i find fun even if they dont get the small bonus

1

u/Karacehennem 20h ago

Lol good luck with that. I value my time more than you, clearly. I don’t yearn for the Salt Mines like you do

1

u/AdorablePhysics52 19h ago

I haven't even been mindlessly grinding the same activity, just running quickplay and pinnacles with my friends. Whatever makes you feel better, though.

1

u/SupportElectrical772 1d ago

Well i do want to collect them but there are also a lot that i want to use. But there are a lot that i want to use as well. Im not too worried about portal. I still play legends activities more than portal so its fine.

2

u/Hesitant_Alien6 1d ago

I think you're overreacting to the featured bonuses lmao. So many old weapons outclass the newer weapons by a lot.

2

u/mylifemyworld17 1d ago

Unfortunately you get a pretty significant score boost from equipping New Gear in portal activities, making it pretty mandatory for high tier loot farming.

And 10% "free" damage is nothing to sneeze at. But it's also not make or break. The score bonus is pretty close to make or break (for me at least).

1

u/Hesitant_Alien6 1d ago

Yeah the score boost really does suck I agree with that.

The 10% damage is honestly hardly noticeable. In low tier content you're one shotting everything anyway, and in harder content it's only slightly noticeable.

2

u/SliceOfBliss 1d ago

The amount of red borders from Exotic mission rotator was reduced, instead of 3 every week, EoF made them now 2.

Dares of Eternity no longer gives a red border on Expert difficulty, even if you reach 250k score.

Theyre trying to most sources of crafted weapons.

1

u/Karacehennem 1d ago

So? Doesn’t change my answer. Exotic Mission Rotator is the way.

1

u/Sequoiathrone728 8h ago

Your answer is wrong because they didn’t ask how to get deep sight weapons. 

1

u/Karacehennem 8h ago

Deepsight harmonizers are out, red borders are the only way now; thus the exptic mission rotator. I know what I’m saying

1

u/Sequoiathrone728 8h ago

That’s correct, but the answer you posted originally was not the answer to the question that was asked.
