Destiny tips and tricks guide

Before you jump into the world of Destiny and start fighting for survival in Story Missions and Crucible matches, we prepared a comprehensive list of things you should know beforehand. The aim of these tips is to help you find general and advanced answers about gearing, weapons, pvping, leveling and much more. If you know any additional tips that we missed please share them with us in the comment section below.

General tips

• During the character creation choose whatever race you like. The differences between races are entirely cosmetic, with no hidden additional bonuses related to any race.
• The races have the same four emotes Wave, Point, Sit and Dance, but each race performs Dance and Wave emotes differently.
• The second subclass unlocks at level 15.
• When you get to rank 15 on any of your characters, you unlock the subclass for all future characters immediately (thanks Sir_Pillows)
• Collecting all Golden chests on planet Earth awards you with a brand new Sparrow.
• You can deposit your items in Tower’s Vaults and share them between your characters.
• At the beginning your character doesn’t have access to special attacks, double jumping or grenades.
• You don’t sell items in shops, you disassemble them in your inventory. During this process you’ll receive some materials and Glimmer currency.
• There is no penalty if you die during a fight. Even your super ability timer is not affected.
• You can interact with players if you target them and click the right stick. It will open a menu where you can invite players to Fireteam, Inspect Player, View Profile or Report Player.
• Your Fireteam privacy settings can be changed under the Roster Tab in pause menu.
• Press triangle on PlayStation or Y on Xbox to access upgrade submenu.
• Participating in public events will give you great rewards and vanguard reputation
• If you loot Encrypted Engram gear item, take it to the Cryptarch at the Tower to decode it. You can also save a few Engrams and decode them while leveling.
• Open your inventory and learn how to compare and quickly equip new gear
• Look for coral-metallic plants Spin Metal, while exploring. You can trade them for reputation points or upgraded kits in the Tower.
• Completing exploration missions rewards you with Vanguard Marks, that can be used for buying Vanguard gear
• The easiest way to get into cover is by hitting crouch button (O/B) while running to do a slide (list of Destiny Controls on PS4, XboX, PS Vita and Alternate Control Schemes
• When crouching in cover behind an object, holding down the Aim-down-sights button will allow you to quickly peek over the object and fire from cover. Releasing the button will place you safely back behind cover.
• Once you hit level 6 you’ll unlock Bounties, challenges that can be bought from Bounty Vendor in Tower. You can choose between Crucible or World challenges, with Crucible Reputation orVanguard Reputation rewards respectively, depending on which type of Bounty you completed.
• Do equip gear that you want to level when turning in bounties. The XP also applies to items allowing you to rapidly gain their special abilities.
• Strikes are missions for 3 players, with much harder enemies and bosses.
• If you kill your enemy with your super ability, your teammates can collect “Orbs of light” and recharge their super abilities faster.
• You can jump off the Tower’s balcony (and die), but you can also be pushed off!
• Use your vehicles to move quickly around the map.
• Use Redemption Codes to unlock 25 different Emblems, Shaders and Destiny Grimoire Card for your collection
• After reviving a Dead Ghost you’ll acquire a new Grimoire Card and +5 Grimoire Points.
• Destiny’s base level cap is 20, but you can increase your Light level and reach level 30.

Weapons

• Tapping the weapon swap button (Triangle/Y) allows you to switch Primary and Special weapons.
• Switching to Heavy weapons occurs when you hold down the swap button.
• When you have your heavy weapon equipped and you tap the change weapon button you will then equip your primary weapon, regardless of whether you had your primary or special weapon equipped previously. To switch from your heavy weapon straight to your special, double tap the change weapon button.
• Don’t rely only on one weapon. Combine your guns, grenades and melee attacks for the best fighting strategy.
• When you start a Crucible match you only have ammo for your primary weapon and a few shots with your special weapon, so keep an eye out for Ammo Creates.
• The announcer gives a 10 second warning before heavy ammo crate drops. Look for a purple icon, try to grab it, and gain a huge advantage over the competition.
• Grenades are limitless but you have to wait for them 1 minute to respawn. You can reduce this timer through weapon/armor upgrades, certain skills, and increasing your discipline stat.
• Special (green) and Heavy (purple) Ammo Creates can be shared between nearby teammates.
• During the weekends visit Strange Coins vendor

Raids

• Comprehensive Destiny Vault of Glass Raid Guide »
• You’ll not get any objectives or waypoints for raids, you have to figure everything out for yourself.
• For the majority of Raid encounters, you’re going to need to work as a group
• Raids have two difficulty levels: Normal and Hard. Upon completing a Raid on Normal, players can attempt the Hard-mode version of the Raid.
• Normal mode is about learning the mechanics, working together as a team and building strategies to overcome the encounters.
• Hard-mode encounters leverage an even harsher death penalty than the Normal modes.
• Your progress through the Raid is reset each Tuesday at the Weekly Reset, thus, you don’t need to complete all Raid activities in one-go.
• You will be able to run the raid as many times as you want per week on the same character, but you can only receive loot once per week per character.
• Each of Destiny’s nine weapon types has a Legendary version that has been created specifically for the Raid, and each class has an entire set of gear to chase across the two Raid difficulties
• The loot you get is private to you.
• The Vault of Glass can be broken into beginning on September 16th, assuming you’ve achieved level 25.
