everything in destiny is either a gun or not a gun

"Ikora are you mad at me?" "Huh? No sorry I was zoning out." "ITS BEEN 63 YEARS"

Shaxx slapping a hunter and causing them to reload their weapons is hilarious to me

Fun fact: The bug inside of Xenophage has a name. Its Omar and he was one of the members of The Original Crota Fireteam

As an upgrade from the stag rift in the tower, you can swap to boots of the assembler and quickly go back to your rift to theoretically make the it extend indefinitely via the healing seekers, which is extremely effective at confusing blueberries

the reload speed of ex diris, an auto-reloading weapon that you physically cannot reload, is set to 69. this means it's definitely on purpose.

The one about the servitor shields is crazy

Important thing to note about cayde being the favourite customer of the ramen shop: That picture is actually a memorial. When the forsaken campaign was in the game, that picture wouldnt actually appear until you reached the campaign, alongside the plaque by zavala. So it was more of a... posthumous gesture of appreciation

As someone who owns the Destiny Cookbook, I can confirm that making the spicy ramen took forever. Totally worth it though

That hunter after being slapped by shax was probably like "JEASUS HOW DID YOU RELOAD MY ROCKET LAUNCHER BY SLAPPING ME?!?"

You can see mars from the moon in D1 but you can't see mars from the moon in D2

It’s so appropriate for the bungie ramen recipe to make you go to multiple stores. First the helm, then ikora, then Neptune, back to the helm…

0:55 Apparently, he still coaches kids in dodgeball on his off-time. I don't remember what lore tab where that's mentioned. I just remember seeing that somewhere and thought it was pretty wholesome that he stuck with it even though he has no further obligations to do so. 13:53 Lore fact: That bug is Omar Agah, a former member of Eris's fireteam. This means, counting Eris and Toland, half of that fireteam still lives in some form or fashion. However, don't worry about little ol' Omar. In the gun's loretab, he states that he doesn't mind his new form because he's still able to get vengeance on the Hive for what they did.

I think the craziest thing of all is that your interact button is mapped to LT in one of the clips

Ikora didnt get the first 25 kill streak, she went on the first 25 game win streak

The Scorn when they make their shields out of crit spots

Guardian's hands are shaking while holding the malfeasance

D1 had a neat detail where if the hand cannon you were using had hair trigger, you could no longer slightly pull down the trigger and cause the hammer to come back half way, it would just go off immediately.

there are multiple weapons produced by hakke with virtually the same model, and at least two auto rifles that are exactly the same, and there are several weapon crates from hakke around the tower, implying that the Vanguard is being scammed

Scorn shields being dead Servitors is honestly cool af

6:05 would love if bungie makes a little easter egg where if you slide 10 times you get a debuff called “Too hot!” And start taking scorch damage

Scourge of the past has been in the DCV for longer than it was playable

The sugar cube you give to star horse is from either festival of the lost or the dawning (I believe the former). It would give you some goodies back during that event. That you can still give him the cube from time to time is a bug they never bothered to patch

Also another fun fact related to Oryx is that Nokris is a femboy and Xivu is tomboy since the knight form is male and wizard form is female

If you shoot Rhulk or Oryx while their immune they will look at you.

5:33 I’ve had this since Shadow Keep and I’m still waiting for it to be “used later”.

For me, these information are not useless, they are either fun, unique, or even helpful. Thanks for making this video 👏!

Gjallerhorn Wolfpack rounds are little wolf heads that growl. I was in dares of eternity when the game crashed/lagged out but I was still able to walk around similar to those videos where someone will lag switch in a CoD game to show the missile or ac130 rounds before impact.

12:47 to one up this, the Omnioculus Mask (universal ornament from eververse) will remove the hood part of cloaks, meaning that if you equip something like the refugee’s cloak, you’ll have no cape and no hood. I sometimes rock this look.

One thing you missed along the lines of rifting in the tower: If you equip blink and a sword then take your sword out it allows you to blink in some destinations you couldn’t normally. I use this trick to get around the helm all the time but it works in other situations as well like certain mission zones that usually lock out your abilities.

Fun but useless fact: I started playing in D2 as a Warlock, but changed classes to Hunter because I wanted to be a space cowboy

Fun fact that i found out when this dlc launched is that The « Festival dance » emote is the only emote that has been completely changed, it no longer has it’s old animation but replaced with an entirely new one.

The reload stat on the hive boomer gun we have is 69

The Trials resetting tip will same me hours each season. I reset a lot.

That transition to a ad was S tier

Making that spicy ramen sounds like a lite version of grinding Sleeper Simulant's old catalyst

I like the fact that Lord Saladin is voiced by the same guy as Reaper from Overwatch and during crucible matches if you get We Ran Out Of Medals has a chance of going "DIE, DIE, DI - sorry. I've, uh, I've been watching too many Iron Banner matches. What time is it? Shaxx? Shaxx, are you there? Can you get me a water? Stop yelling; it's just a question. I'M NOT OLD."

There used to be Faction-unique ornaments that you could only acquire through reaching max loyalty with your faction wayyy back in the faction wars.

Me and my sister actually bought the book and we did cook the spicy cayde-6 ramen, ofc we call it that because it is his favorite, and i gotta say it was our favorite dish and the best one so far. me and my sister swore to make it every Destiny dawning event that is coming and will enjoy it while it lasts 😊❤

Bruh that sponsor segway was so smooth I almost didn't realize it was a sponsorship.

6:26 It’s funny that you mention star trek and interesting name choices! In star trek discovery season 3 and 4; Oded Fehr, the voice actor for Osiris, plays a character named Vance. Vance is the leader of Starfleet in the crazy far future!

All snipers in Destiny 2 have scopes.

the fact about the energy weapons facing one way in the character screen can flip if having the right ornaments like the until its return and its ornament

The yellow tank in the intro sequence of the "Ghosts of the deep" Dungeon is the same tank from a red war campaign mission called "Utopia"

Here's a few that come to mind. - Winterbite's Stasis effect lingers during emotions. - The Felwinter Exotic Gauntlets have an ornament that cannot been entirely seen in the preview menu. - The Tower Location Icon moved with Lightfall release. - Shaxx has three horns. - Somewhere, there is a number of players with every major NPC or Boss name. - Rhulk and Nezarc both have Ankle Bands and turn into spaghetti upon death. - Warlocks have more Robes then Non-Robes. - The Drifter has, in fact, eaten Hatchlings. - Cayde and Shaxx had a special sparrow for the Dodge-ball event and were escorted by Redjacks. - Xivu Wrath only speaks in CAPS. - Glorbo was the name of a test screeb. - Telesto has canonical broken the Fourth Wall. - Pre-order exotics for expansion have always had some major bug. (No, Ostera Striga doesn't count. It was not obtainable upon pre-order) - Most NPC's have billions of Cookies from the Dawning. - We have a Rock Ship (and get it off my map). - We have only one Raid that has not reprised from D1. - Nightfalls are canonical.

Make more of these! lol, I love tiny little details. They are labors of love.

That bit with the hive worms could actually come in handy one day. I’ll be sure to remember it!

That Hello Fresh transition deserves a Nobel Peace Prize

14:10 that tiny detail about the hammer, cylinder, and hands blew my mind when I discovered it/was told about it. I was complaining about Ace of Spades being such an incredible weapon but was missing the detail of the hammer and cylinder. My friend then says "ummm aktchually on controller it does" I went and tested it and was blown away. I then spent like 30 minutes testing controller vs mnk animations. The ironic part is my favorite exotic is sunshot (has been since I started playing in 2020) but I feel the devs put too much love into it making its animations a little too exciting which makes the gun kinda hard to use in PvP. I mean I got used to it but its still kinda wild. 15:55 that is the most petty thing I have seen... I love it.

that bit about all classes having base stats is actually helpful, because I have a friend who swears up and down that titans have a hidden resil buff, huters have more mobility, etc

The terminal in the old Zero Hour mission at the TR3-VR section would show you where nearly everything in the room was.

8:36 There's a very small handful of guns that don't adhere to this rule, & it kinda drives me crazy lol For example, if you equip the Spare Rations ornament on Targeted Redaction, it'll flip the icon to point left as if it's a Kinetic weapon (like the original Spare Rations). I think this applies to most (if not all) S21 Taken weapons, & I want to say there's more but I can't recall them atm

Oh and as for removing cloaks entirely, you can remove your hunter class item COMPLETELY by using the Coutourier helmet. For some reason it removes the top part of all cloaks. If you use a cloak that doesn't have any other parts to it like the Legatus cloak. However my favourite personal use for it is to have a stylish afghan scarf effect by using the coutourier helmet with the Refugee Cloak. Throw in Veist Fieldscale camo and you have yourself the perfect camo afghan scarf look to compliment your hunter vibe. Oh and this effect is intentional, because on the Whisper Of The Victor cloak, the cloak is still actually visible but it's folded down and hanging behind you. This is the ONLY cloak that has this up/down hood behaviour that i know of. If anyone has other examples please let me know. I only have limited transmog options available as a somewhat casual player and i've missed some seasons. Also your Eververse calculations are WAY low because that doesn't include any of the event items that are only available to see in the store during their related events, and there's a fuck tonne of items for silver for every event these days (that's the only thing bungie bothers to update for the event every single time it rolls around, unlike, y'know... the gameplay, or content at all). If you include all the event sets and emotes and finishers and items etc, including the halloween masks that actually cost silver (why the fuck would anyone pay REAL MONEY for a halloween mask you can't even use the rest of the year????) then it would probably be double that amount.

This video made me remember my times with the Ice Breaker and now I’m sad because we are never gonna see that sniper again

Can’t lie that was a smooth sponsor intro

5:12 Should Devrim change his name to “Devrim Gay?” I see how he’s survived so long. While everyone else is fighting, he’s packing fudge. 🤭

Oryx isn't trans, the hive are genderless until choosing the morph they want

Bro the segway to hello fresh was GENIUS and so smooth, also I felt it coming a few seconds before lmaoo

The transition to the ad was genius.

The turn around robe thing is most likely because the physics for the cloth is turned off when not on screen to save resources, and when it gets reactivated, it causes that. It is very common in many games.

That transition to the sponsor was pretty smooth

I actually made the ramen when my girlfriend at the time bought the book for me as a surprise. I can confirm it took me like half of the day just preparing it.

Shaxx coaching the kids like YOU DIDNT THROW ENOUGH GRENADES

Ex Diris, a weapon that is unable to be reloaded, has a reload stat of 69

One of the cleanest sponsor transitions I've seen in a while

1:42 both of which have been vaulted,… perhaps one day after the final shape bungie’ll add back old campaigns and unique missions from the past every once in a while.

9:06 sometimes when you offer a sugar cube to xur's horse it will charge your super

Fun fact about the Spicy Ramen for the cook book. It only takes a hour to prep if you dont make the egg with it. If you decide that you want the egg it take 24h

The thorns hand cannon rounds are larger then the gun.

that transition into the sponsor segment was smooth dude, lmao

the way you transition into promotions as well as recommend your next video is so smooth

This is *extremely* interesting and I loved every minute of this. Thank you!

There is only one gun in Destiny 2 with “Shadow” in its name and it is the legendary auto rifle “ Shadow Price”

The Metropolitan acoustics shader is a direct reference to the team in color and in name. Metropolitan=city=seattle, Acoustics=sound=sounders.

The image of shaxx with like a water container on a bleach shouting the instructions of dodge ball to the kids like a dad/coach helps me sleep at night

The loot cave now has been remembered in Destiny 2

That sponsor was smooth.

It is an unspoken rule of destiny to emote whenever someone emotes at you

Cool to see what you ended up doing with the reddit post you made a while back. I remember seeing your username as the OP and thinking this was gonna be a great video.

Ramming an interceptor into a cabal tank will instantly destroy the tank

If you dance in the tower full of Guardians with 3 or more Guardians, you will slowly get a larger group of Guardians joining in.

That sponser transition was soo clean 🫡

I respect that hello fresh ad. Well played

Smoothest ad break on RU-vid 😂

Shooting the roombas on Titan is considered a war crime.

That sponsorship was smooooth

Your ad read integration is too buttery smooth. You get it from hello fresh too? 😆

Damm you were PISSED it that guy 15:51

Sometimes the Star Horse will give you something if you feed it a sugar cube.

That hello fresh ad was smoooooth

There is no weapon that fires at 2 Billion RPM

Another seemingly useless tip, you cannot outrun a golden gun shot, which shaxx did not believe. “I beat you fair, Cayde said. “Don’t ever-“ He raised his hand high to wag a finger under Shaxx’s nose. “-try to outrace my Golden Guns.”… “It was a tactical error. Won’t happen again.”

Ikora’s hair changed lengths in the Witch Queen cutscene where she finds out Savathun was lied to by the Witness.

I don't care for the ad breaks, but that was a clean transition to it

There is also a snowbank area on Europa slightly off the main paths. That you are able to walk in and draw in the snow like the swamp that was mentioned in this video.

The fact Taken King had more pvp maps introduced than D2 Warmind-to-present isn't useless. It's sad.

clean transition to the sponsor ngl

Tommy's Matchbook has a magazine of 100, but in the inspect screen it only has 60.

fun fact about the weapon facing different directions for kinetic and energy slots. you can equip some of the old gambit ornaments on the season of the deep weapons, which will make some of the icons face the opposite direction, since the original weapons the ornaments were made for were in a different slot
