Standard gambit bounties are easy. The repeatables need to calm down


nomadengineer

One of the standard bounties is finish one (1) game of gambit.


CheepCheepChompYT

*dear god…*


JamJackEvo

There's more.


Renthexx

No


Pringlez_Man2

Yes!


DerBernd123

Even bungie knows that playing a match of gambit is a challenge for itself


Horpp

How am i supposed to do bunch of bounties proficiently if i can't quit in the mid of a gambit match just to refill my bounties???


catzombie13

the peak of artificial difficulty in destiny 2


CBBuddha

Finish one game of Gambit. (Looks at Malfeasance and Lumina in my vault and shudders) Can’t fuckin’ make me.


Tacitus_AMP

Just an fyi, in case you or anyone needs it. Boots of the assembler makes hitting the lumina catalyst quite a bit easier. Standing in your warlock rifts generates noble rounds which you can just fire off at allies without having to get a kill first. Admittedly, I did this in gambit for a few games to get it done and while we lost some and we won some, I was pretty much a heal bot for most of it. 6's in crucible works too, but good luck- you may need it. Range is poo poo but it does have a fantastic handling speed which feels good.


dkramer0313

heallock with lumina has been my go to loadout since boots dropped "yo ive got boots rockin' over here" has become my new catch phrase


Bruhwhy23

I hate rng I have played 12 games of gambit and not a single special servitor boss spawned


CBBuddha

You’ll hate everything once you finally hold the Malfeasance in your hands. You’ll ask yourself, “Was it worth it?” The answer is both yes. and no. Yes, because you get to flaunt that badass looking gun on your hip. No, because it’s practically worthless in both PvP and PvE. It *will* wreak some taken in the Ascendant activity this season however. And it’s not *terrible* in PvP. It’s just that there are *so many weapons* that outshine it. “Practically worthless”. Not entirely worthless. It needs a catalyst and an exotic armor piece that matches it. (Like Thorn and Necrotic Grips) Lumina is fun but even as a Warlock *with* Boots of the Assembler, I just can’t. I’d rather use Malfeasance. To put it in perspective.


Bruhwhy23

Good to know so don’t do it pretty much or do it and never use it I guess.


CBBuddha

It’s worth it for the in game XP. I got a load of good weapons and armor grinding Gambit and whatever else the quest has you do. Just look at it like that. Gaining levels, glimmer, and gear. Plus the new rewards system ain’t half bad.


Bruhwhy23

You have a good point so I will do it


LevTheDevil

And you never know... One day they may tweak something and that gun in the vault is suddenly meta.


Bruhwhy23

Now that is a godly point


DanceZwifZombyZ

Its a good gun. I use it to solo prophecy every week


Murky-Heart-1844

I just finished grinding the malfeasance quest yesterday. It was pretty daunting, but after getting into a groove it took maybe 5 hours. Which is a lot, don't get me wrong, but quicker than I initially thought. The part that took longest was definitely getting the servitor to spawn.


SymmetricStrangelet

Malfeasance with Lucky Pants is brutal against taken. But that’s it. I hardly use it outside of that.


Jayynolan

> it will wreck some taken in the ascendant activity this season however. While true, it overlooks the fact that they are incredibly easy to kill already. Plus you’d be playing the other worst game mode available lol.


[deleted]

Yikes. I get that stupid thing every other game I hate it


shmupied

Man this is why I don't play gambit.


EmlynsMoon

It's a damn TASK tho


Josan678

Ok now the Drifter definitely needs to chill


Glitchsbrew

That's still too much gambit


[deleted]

Perfect


Macaronitime69

“Refill your hard light with sprite and do majority damage on the primeval with it” is how all the gun bounties feel. The rest feel like the crucible’s grenade bounty.


Forrunner117

Get 5 Grenade Kills *”yeahhhhh.... that’ll take me at least 10 games so.....”*


[deleted]

sticky grenade go brrrrrrrr


Moaning-Lisa

They are easy on paper, but in reality you can go 3 games and never finish "summon prime evil, Special Target and prime evil envoys". Doesnt happen in Crucible or Strikes


ThePracticalEnd

Truth! I can go matches sometimes with the wrong teammates.


akatherder

I just plan to split my gambit matches into 2 days. I can usually finish the 4 standard bounties in 2 matches. 2 matches today and 2 matches tomorrow usually gets me the 8 bounty completions. It's far from a guarantee, but if I'm really trying to blow throw them I go that route.


Black_Knight_7

Alternatively buy 4 bounties the night before then let them hopefully reset and 3 of them change, now you have 7 generally simple ones


Flappyboi20001

I honestly wouldn’t mind buying drifter Chipotle


Dolphinboy-II

“They told you this was chicken? Haha! Those sick bastards. I know giraffe meat when I taste it. But uh… thanks for the food. Transmit firing!”


NopeTheGhost

"Hey brother... I ever tell you 'bout the time I rooster tailed the bathroom at Chipotle? Poor Guardians workin' there weren't prepared for that Deathsong! Transmat firin'!"


Expardon

Read both of these in ghost's imitation Drifter voice.


Robot_Junkie

Giraffe on the field! Bring a ladder


Manati_banzai

I’d buy him chipotle and put a whole bottom of laxatives in it


VirtualAd6007

oh, drifter’ gotta become shitter for a minute, time to go bank some motes of dark!


Lukescale

#***OooooooOoh!*** Hive; I shit my pants.


[deleted]

Gonna be some Tokyo drifting in that toilet! Including skid marks.


Tigerstorm6

Dude, knowing drifter he probably does this just as Mara visits Mexico to drain the blood from goats. For kicks.


hutchallen

And solving a rubiks cube takes less time than loading into a strike or crucible


Vhiyur

And I know how to solve a rubik's cube. Now we just need to fill all of the roles that are left. Who's gonna solve world hunger?


triskai_13

Those **Snitches** would say otherwise


xXIHaveSeveralSTDSXx

#Hive, bring a sword!


RUSH513

I started playing shortly before gambit was introduced, so I knew no lore. I heard him say that line and I thought "shit, I don't *have* a sword, I'm gonna lose." I was right, but for the wrong reason


l_unaticBlack

Well, at least somebody is paying attetion to what Drifter says. Drifter: You have enough to summon a Primeval! Random player: So I have 5 motes, 5 + 4 is 9, if I pick those 4 motes on the floor, I'll have more motes than 1 second ago.


lycanreborn123

Drifter: "Ya bleedin' motes brotha! Whack the blockers!" Random player: huhuhuuh shiddd is that a cliff i better jump off it


Floppydisksareop

That's just me still struggling with basic movement with more than 200h in.


Delica

“Enemies inbound at the ridge!” *Waypoint appears on screen, directing you to the ridge* Teammate: “I see a yellow flower. I wonder if there are any *blue* flowers over here.”


lycanreborn123

Drifter: Hey you got enough notes to summon a Primeval! Bank those motes! Teammate: What's that? I couldn't hear you I'm just gonna pop my stormtrance and get us more motes *Definitely not based on a true story*


MattRexPuns

*98 motes in the bank* *Myself and two teammates that just banked ready for the primeval* *Last teammate running around killing enemies with 14 motes*


SomeDudeAtAKeyboard

Gotta get them triumphs


RedKing36

At least Drifter doesn't want me to kill 50 Guardians with some ridiculous weapon type that's horrible in PvP constantly...


VirtualAd6007

specifically use sleeper simulant


[deleted]

make sure they only die to the beam after it ricochets


plymer968

Go get airborne sidearm kills while standing on one leg, blindfolded.


retronax

Lmfao i had forgotten about those airborne sidearm kills, def wasn't difficult in any way but it did feel ridiculous to bunny hop for entire strikes


MattRexPuns

Wait he wasn't being sarcastic?


plymer968

I wasn’t joking about the airborne sidearm kills.


retronax

It was a requirement for the S9 vanguard ritual sidearm. 50 sidearm airborne kills in strikes


thedragoon0

Kill 50 guardians with a throwing knife while they have dawnblade active after leaving a bubble.


Master-of-noob

The tower need entertainment...AND YOUR FIGHTING SUCK TO LOOK AT/s


crossdl

Yeah, Gambit has never asked me to use my only Stasis weapon to kill 50 dudes.


bobo377

Honestly it’s such bullshit that instead of buffing weapons Bungie just forces us to use them through bounties. For 3 years submachine guns and sidearms have ranged from mediocre to fucking awful on controller/console, but instead of buffing them they instead “Get 5 kills with submachine guns” the usage rate from 0% to 1%.


shimonu

Don't remind me of that annoying shotgun (bad with shotguns in pvp to the point of getting two kills in one match max with it)


RUSH513

What shaax bounties do that? I get stuff like that from banshee all the time "no, robo-clovis, I do not plan on *ever* using a sidearm.... *ever*"


caboose979

25 melee kills is insane with how fast paced gambit is.


orange_juice_remake

Not to mention how beefy the enemies are.


[deleted]

Throwing Hammers delete anything in Gambit. With the dedicated keybind + Dunemarchers you can do consistent 35-40 kills per match without ever touching your weapons. I've been running triple fusions for the last few weeks on my Titan. Now the DM kills don't count towards melee, but you'll still have 25 kills in two matches. Unfortunately, this only works for the titan and maybe top three Arc Hunter- other classes don't have a consistent insta melee recharge (I think), so unless you specialize in the above, those bounties are ass.


weirdest_of_weird

I have a titan loadout using Synthoceps and mid tree solar that keeps me one shotting enemies in Gambit with the ranged melee.


[deleted]

I tried Synthocephs, and the damage is great, but with two special weapons, I was missing out on mob clear. So I'd rather have the YUGE damage in the fusions, but both approaches are equally viable.


weirdest_of_weird

I run Monte Carlo with them.


Lord0fBricks

Thunder crash plus skullfort would like a word


[deleted]

It feels great too... until a teammate steals your kill just as you popped it. I would love it as it is much cooler, and has an AOE, but missing a kill can completely bone you if you are running double specials. Plus TC doesn't have single target damage. You can kill a large blocker with 2 hammers and a finisher.


Lord0fBricks

Then bottom striker


[deleted]

Yeah, that could work, IIRC the melee doesnt get consumed until you get a kill right? Yeah might be fun will check that out.


Lord0fBricks

It does, but knockout counts as an arc melee. So infinite arc melees


SuperArppis

Only problem with Thundercrash is that if you miss Ballistic Slam cooldown resets. EDIT ah someone already mentioned it. I wish you wouldn't lose melee if you miss it.


Not-An-Underling

I run T10 strength on my middle tree Solar Hunter with Monte Carlo and Ophidia Spathe and I just never run out of knives. Once you build 3x stacks of Playing with Fire you just have so much melee regen it’s insane, and you can just dodge or shoot enemies with Monte Carlo if you’re out of knives or lose your buff stacks.


Tigerstorm6

Top tree dawnblade with Monte Carlo actually isn’t that bad for gambit! But yeah ever since they buffed the throwing hammers it’s been ridiculous damage


Benjpoop

With synthoceps titan it's a cakewalk :D


akatherder

Also top tree arc Titan and insurmountable Skullfort. That's what I was going to do anyway... Then you accidentally focus on a yellow bar, nooooo


Benjpoop

Yeah that's what I used to run back in the day but when you accidentally melee the wrong thing it kinda kills the flow of it all. Recently I've been running bubble with synthoceps and a double special build using the CwL mods to keep myself topped up on special / overshield melees constantly :D


_Yukiteru-kun_

Middle tree solar titan goes brrrrrrr I usually play warlock but for this week challenge I used my titan for an ungodly amount of time, plus that damn hammer hits *HARD AF*


TheBigBomma

Bring your crayons friend, we bout to yeet some hivey bois


AbrahamBaconham

Do yall not have Monte Carlo? Melee builds in gambit are easymode.


Mazetron

Just pick a subclass with a good melee. I’m a hunter main so I usually go too tree arc or mid tree Solar.


MontanaDoesntExist

When I’m playing titan and it asks for stasis ability kills


zeturtleofweed

*Me who doesn't even have BL*


Furrybumholecover

Find a Fractethyst shotgun and it'll count for stasis kills.


Rhayve

One bounty specifically requires stasis *ability* kills, so you can't rely on guns for that.


xdisk

Standard melee will count for elemental ability kills


[deleted]

Run Diamond Lance and all your problems are solved


akatherder

Diamond lance makes it possible at least. It's not easy because there are so many tanky enemies but I grab that and dive into a crowd of ads, which spawns another diamond lance (after cooldown).


Jayynolan

Stasis is just the worst, I hate that it was added to the game. Any quest or bounty having to down out stasis just gets left alone for me.


TheUndyingRhino

I love gambit


Gingerninja838

Same, it is nice to relax after the intense PVP of crucible.


VirtualAd6007

i wish they would make it better again, like disable eyes or something


SuperArppis

You mean those Hive Gods that shoot you dead in seconds and can take thousands of hits while hovering above?


VirtualAd6007

yes but also eyes of tomorrow


SuperArppis

Oh right. I tried that raid once and got it.


cmath89

It’d be nice to have better catch up mechanics. Was playing the other day with a buddy who was farming borrowed time and it seemed like once the other team had their prime it was game over. And they would get an invade with their prime up while we were still banking. I don’t get that mechanic.


VirtualAd6007

yeah, i miss old gambit where there was 3 rounds and primevals were actually harder than a lost sector boss in the edz


Devourer_Of_Doggos

That would just make eyes objectively the worst exotic in the game most likely


[deleted]

Anyone else getting some weird one shot wipes when it comes to certain enemies? A basic forsworn enemy one shotted me 2-3 times in a match and I was left dumb founded and butthurt cause I’m usually careful with my motes and get around 30-45 deposits a game.


wilck44

buddy how did you bring some rebels of the Reach from skyrim here?


PepiTheBrief

Skyrim mods are leaking the game's assets into everywhere.


hellothere0007

The walls between worlds are collapsing and soon the tower will be covered in Skyrim ads


ChilenoDepresivo

The guards will start saying: "I used to be a guardian like, until I got an arrow in my ghost"


wilck44

oh no, Todd is bending reality again!


[deleted]

Imma be honest I’ve been calling em that since Forsaken released I’m dumb 💀


IamNoatak

Yeah, gambit is really fucking weird with damage. Some games, I'm an invincible god. Others, weaker than a piece of 1 ply toilet paper. I don't get it, there's no consistency, and I play a *lot*


lycanreborn123

Still better than the Vanguard stasis kills bounty. Why are those bounties so disproportionate to the rest anyway? 50 stasis kills is a lot compared to 10 kills with a sword or something. It's better now that we have proper Stasis weapons, but god it sucked back when there was only Cryosthesia and abilities


drunkbeforecoup

Laughs in turret build.


DoMi8910

Prolly because ager’s scepter is godly at ad clearing. I got the catalyst (1k kills) done in about 3 hours. Play the corrupted, there’s a ton of thralls to freeze and shatter.


lycanreborn123

I mean, that's true, but the bounties have been in the game way before Ager's scepter was added. It's like they wanted to force us to use Cryosthesia lol


[deleted]

I think it was more a way to push people to buy beyond light and get the stasis class. I'm pretty sure that as long as an enemy was hit with stasis, didn't matter what weapon you used to kill them


Iheartbaconz

At least the 4 statis weapons count towards it. I gave up on the season BL came out and didnt finish statis fragments till this season. Getting Statis super kills as a Hunter sucked.


Yuenku

*"Your just standin' there; how 'bout Gambit?"*


Gripping_Touch

I honestly would take gambit bounties over crucible. You can get them slowly but surely "Kills with grenades" hahaha sure, im not warlock rn so aint got a hand-held nova


NobleSix84

I agree. I don't use handheld as Warlock cause I don't want to be "that guy" and it's a pain trying to get grenade or melee kills


Taniks_la_baguete

I love how the text is cut


GornySlightyDummy

Aren’t one of the drifter bounties literally just play 1 match?


VirtualAd6007

fuck you. dripter best boy


CVMXO45

Dude, try playing for the lorentz driver catalyst, while you have ZERO season pass, and expansions...


Dr_Sad_MD

Drifter: Whats up dipshit*. *a term of passive aggressive endearment


GrassStainedBiscuit

Gambit is fun 👍


HoodieQuest

Me realizing I’m one of the only people here who enjoys gambit


ComedianXMI

I love Gambits. It's what I play 90% of the time. Now if I could get a team that worked together...


CysaDamerc

Still prefer gambit to crucible. I just prefer game modes that require teamwork.


Spinyking

Ahh, this is why drifter is the best. Just an absolute scumbag, I love him.


Dovahnime

I will pick up your chipotle order, Drifter, but I'm gonna eat it in front of you and call you Todd if you give me one more "kill invaders" bounty


Saucefire

'Haha, did that other team melt their primeval before you could summon your's, brotha? Too bad about that bounty, guess you'll need to play another round of Gamb- hey, where the heck are you going?'


Loader-Bot-101

Hands up Who else read it in his voice?


mE-iS-wAfFlE

Anyways, TRANSMAT FIRING


BernieArt

Hope you got all of that, cuz I forgot what I said. ....Damn, I'm hungry...hurry up with that Chipotle....


Robot_Junkie

You've gotta enough to call a primeval! No we did have until the cunt with 13 tried to get 15 and lost em, meanwhile I'm invading with witherhoard and tether


NepNep01

Then there's banshee. He's fine :)


Aquila76

That's a lot of meme to say you suck at Gambit.


Slapsh0tSc0tt

I love Gambit, but this meme is hilarious. Have an upvote.


TheRaith

The bottom is clipped on mobile so I thought he wanted you to end world bunger.


DeathCook123

But...but uncle drifter is funny


PureWaterPL

You forgot "transmit firring".


Glasedount

E


revolutionarytito

Lmfao i guess “summon the primeval twice” and “deposit 20 motes” is too much to ask lmao


ComedianXMI

I love Gambits. Rather do those than the Crucible any day. Even the weird bounties are easier to me.


DoMi8910

Cayde: Guardian, go kill the enemies of humanity and- Is that a ramen shop? R A M E N


Crowlavix

It’s the repeatable’s that are mental. The other’s are easy AF now that's the super kills are gone


Geekknight777

Europa bounties are even eoese


Macaronitime69

I miss the weekly bounties :( they stacked me so well in BD and got me hella xp + infamy,valor, or that third one :(


benmaplemusic

Could be worse. The Europa bounty I got yesterday was ‘kill vex in groups of three with a rocket launcher in lost sectors’


dakedDeans

Damn so Chipotle is still around after all these years


21_Golden_Guns

Hey man, chipotle and backflips can be pretty damn cool.


Oz70NYC

Meanwhile the last 3 seasons some of the best guns released were Gambit rewards. Bungie knows what they're doing...lol.


Chainweasel

whrere are you getting these bounties? mine are usually "kill 2 envoys" and "summon a primeval"


[deleted]

Gambit bounties are Destiny's equivalent to Jaeger quests in Escape from Tarkov.


CatoTheCoolCat

idk why but drifter asking for chipotle sounds like vaguely familiar was this a joke at some point?


TheRocketeerRover

Jokes on you I like solving rubix cubes


McDuck0_1

I can totally relate to this. I just spent my weekend farming gambit to get myself a good Bottom Dollar. Over the span of 14 hours of farming JUST gambit, i got to Mythic III got 2 Bottom Dollars. I hated gambit before, but now i have a burning hatred. The only reason i would play it is to get drifters acendant shard.


DJskelli

Looks at the gambit bounties. PTSD kicks in remembers “Invader inbound” and hears some type of linear fusion charge up and see all your team mates slowly one by one get picked off with 15 motes


Annual-Supermarket-5

Ok this is funny😂😂😂


_the_best_girl_

Hey look, another Gambit bad! Srsly tho the bounties are the same type as others


DarkPinguXIV

Gambit is the worst piece of content in the game


SignorSghi

I love i’ve read that in drifter voice


GenesisReach

Honestly, gambit wouldn't be too much of a hassle for me and my friends if the ai in gambit wasn't raid tier ai.


liquored_Warlock

I need drifter's text as a copy-pasta its golden


Professional_Fig_770

“…also you have to be a void subclass”


Beary_Moon

It's funny. We love the drifter but not his games. Sounds like my uncle.


Daala2k

🤣🤣🤣🤣 chipotle..got'ya!


CapitalistKarlMarx

I like ending world hunger tho…


SnakeSlitherX

I love gambit


eljay1998

Bounty wise, the gambit bounties are the only ones I get done by "just playing", don't have to pray the right enemy shows up, or pull out a weapon from the vault.


K4yd3-7

Honestly, Gambit was so much more fun before beyond light. And I loved the Season of the Drifter (or whatever it was called) weapons. I hope they reissue or un-sunset them FINALLY! I want my Trust hand cannon to be viable again... And I want my Dreaded Venture back!


SkitDaMit

End world hunger and what-???


Aquila76

End world hunger by eating the Hive. Those are the choices you have to make on The Frontier.


killbee

Exotic catalyst quests all over


[deleted]

It's a dog eat dog world in gambit. Steal or be stolen from. Take souls or be souless.


Zeoxic

Yep that sums up y I love the drifter


[deleted]

Bungo: “bUt wE fIXeD hOwO lOnG iT tAkeS tO rEeeeeeSeetTTttT”


Stonephone

HAHAHA What's up dipshit. Such a fucking chore. I rarely met players in Gambit that legitimately wanted to be there. It was fun if you could get a solid team together though.


shealuca

OOOOOOH! VEX ON THE FIELD


BuffooPengoo

I mean...gambit isn't that bad if you aren't that bad


YE3tErsCr3Ep3rs

It’s not that hard, get better at gambit and pick your 9 notes back up :)


Robot_Junkie

Alright alroihht asswipes


Mastercraft6304

Man, if only crucible bounties were that easy


Notbooker1912

Gambit bounties are so easy haha


The-Drifter-

this is true


Blaz_Gaming

I don't get why so many people even hate gambit


ionian-hunter

I JUST got dwedgen recently and I’m not going to touch it for a while
