In The Final Shape, we’re introducing the Ritual Pathfinder, a new rewards path that will replace Vanguard, Crucible, and Gambit bounties and their weekly vendor challenge. While the Pathfinder will replace bounties at these vendors, they will remain unchanged at other vendors.
We’ll have more info to share on the Pathfinder in the next couple of weeks. We wanted to give a heads up so everyone preparing for The Final Shape can prioritize how they spend their time. Any Ritual bounties held when The Final Shape releases on June 4 will be abandoned.

Edited by CookieNiki: 5/16/2024 9:46:58 AMI'll bet my salary that Pathfinder is yet another way to reinforce the hamster wheel grind and force players into playing the worn-out-boring-to-death core game activities (strikes, gambit, crucible), nothing else. Everything is made to burnout players. No surprise that you're losing them and the ones (like me) that still play this game, spend less and less time actually playing it.
-
Why do I have a feeling, that this Pathfinder thing would be more time consuming, than the current system?

Edited by Aazhyd: 5/11/2024 11:56:12 AMOnly thing I hope the game and the bounties will remain accessible for casuals. Don't force us to buy Final Shape. I'll buy it if it's good. Also don't force us to do increasingly hard content. It's fine if it's there for hardcore players, but it's hell for casuals like me. And I've bought all expansions so far, just saying. I hope those older expansions will remain available as well.

Edited by Scorpion21: 5/11/2024 4:53:19 PMPreparing for the final shape? In the old days you hyped a DLC. Now? nothing to be hyped about. Buying it? For now, not worth it.
-
Speaking of ritual activities, please put the old ritual weapons back in the Monument to Lost Light. I was excited to complete my ritual weapon collection when I saw they would be unsunset, only to find many missing. I know we can now grind random rolls on them, but that is totally contrary to the purpose of ritual weapons. I would have bought them earlier if we weren't so sure you would never undo sunsetting. Please allow us to complete our collections of these older weapons now that they are more useful

I have a question regarding seasonal bounties. If I have a completed Riven bounty from our current season, will I be able to cash that in after the launch of Final Shape and a new season? To be specific, can I cash in a completed season 22 Riven bounty after the launch of season 23, after June 4th?

Why is bungie trying to sabotage the game with pointless nerfs ,Sony really needs to take over like pronto before there investment goes down in flames

Edited by Kemaleon: 5/11/2024 3:52:00 PMSo the last 2 years players have asked for all vendors to have the same rep and focus system as the Ritual vendors, Bungie has slowly been giving other vendors a similar system but now you're changing it? I'm guessing this is to reduce the amount of Exotic Engrams we get, due to the new Cryptard system. So, what happens to rep? Why can't you tell us now? Is it because you haven't fully figured it out yet?
-
So no more comp loot?
-
Not certain I follow the logic. So instead of three weekly rewards (bright dust, etc) by completing bounties for each vendor you have one. Unless this will be tied to the exotic enemgram reward tree. So faster weekly progress with possible reduction in rewards. But new name for existing reward tree. Why announce this?
-
No. Don't wait to give us more info. People have started bounty prepping for Final Shape now. Tell us what changes are happening now so we don't waste our time doing something that won't matter for Final Shape.
-
I hope this means the activities themselves will at least grant more exp then since the artifact grind gets so boring as it is, but having to sub in even older content will kinda suck.

Edited by CrossMod5282: 5/10/2024 11:48:42 PMShould have been communicated at least a month ago before bounty prep. 3 weeks until the DLC begins with a raid coming 3 days after launch... I hate being a dedicated Destiny player sometimes. I just deleted 7 crucible and vanguard bounties per character, that's 42 total... what a waste of time that I could have spent elsewhere.
-
So exactly which bounties will carry over?
-
What I am seeing is that instead of focusing on the bounties and the game mode you like, you will be forced into the weekly challenge that may be strikes, or gambit or mostly crucible. You will loose the choice to chase what you want and be forced to do what the devs want. I would bet that at least half the time it will be PVP focused. Leaving those of us who HATE PVP without something to do that week and delaying the advancement of pathfinder and removal of earning the weekly exotic engrams. I would bet money that it is not in the players interest!
-
Guessing it will be more grind??? Can you confirm yay or nay ??
-
I'm gonna see if Datto asks me to delete them before I make a decision.....
-
Please remove the wish ender tokens from my inventory I have it n they are glitched forever now. Let me delete them please
-
Thanks for the update. Question for clarification: what do you mean by bounties will be abandoned? Does that mean unfinished bounties will be abandoned? What about finished bounties, will we still get xp from them?
-
It’s not like the ritual bounties even gave rep anymore.
-
Abandoned means that the bounties will be deleted and not honoured. Do the planet vendor ones instead.
-
As others have asked.....please define "abandoned". Will completed bounties we're holding as prep per usual he honored or not. Please let us know.
-
Can you give us trials back? The maps are small and everyone who plays trials will know them already. You can also just put all 3 on as a rotator this week
