And for those hoping to run the normal campaign to get some loot and then run Legendary, bad news: the missions are level capped, meaning you can’t over-level to give yourself an advantage. It also scales based on your party, so solo players shouldn’t be deterred. It’s harder than a Legend Nightfall but easier than soloing a three-player dungeon or running a Grandmaster Nightfall. For players looking to raid on March 5, Legendary is looking to be mandatory - or at least very efficient.īut Bungie also tells players not to fear, as the Legendary campaign isn’t insurmountable. So while the Legendary campaign will definitely take longer to complete, it’s worth it for players looking to level up their gear fast, as not only does it send players to the soft cap ASAP, but it also gives an additional 20 levels otherwise limited by weekly powerful drops.

Since players will start Witch Queen at 1350, they’ll need a lot of drops to reach 1500, and normal campaign players won’t hit the cap by the campaign’s end, according to Bungie in our preview. Anything above that will require powerful or pinnacle drops. But players will get even greater rewards by beating the entire campaign on the higher difficulty.īeating The Witch Queen campaign on Legendary will give an exclusive emblem, a Triumph players will need for the location Title, some materials, some mysterious Bungie rewards, one of the new Witch Queen armor Exotics for their class, and most interestingly, a set of 1520 Power armor.ġ500 Power is the “soft cap” in The Witch Queen, meaning that’s as high as players can get from random world drops and blue items. Players will be able to swap between Legendary and Normal difficulties between missions without having to re-complete parts of the campaign, meaning Guardians can adjust on the fly depending on how they’re feeling. On Legendary, these encounters will drop two chests, giving players more bang for their buck, one to three times per mission. New “major encounters” offer loads of enemies that drop chests at the end.

In a preview for The Witch Queen last week, we were able to watch Bungie play the second mission of the expansion’s campaign. In a blog on its website, Bungie detailed why players would want to subject themselves to the harder difficulty, and finally revealed all six Exotic armor pieces coming in the expansion. And for the first time ever, players will be able to play that campaign on a higher difficulty from day one. A few are catwalk models.In addition to weapon crafting and Void 3.0, a massive campaign is one of the major selling points for Destiny 2’s upcoming The Witch Queen expansion. All are dressed up in biker chic, with tattoos, rings, piercings and kohl eyes. Koulder, one of the last defences the world has against that danger, has a way of telling the witches from the humans, but they are not that hard to tell. The thing is the queen’s followers are trying to bring her back to life, and that’s not good at all, especially as she threatened to usher in the plague the last time. Plus, she is to jog Koulder’s deep-ingrained memory about the clash with the witch queen that changed his life. Leslie is a witch who runs a bar and who enters Koulder’s life just as he is being advised by the 36th Dolan to “find someone”.

Wood is Dolan 37th, who replaces Caine’s Dolan 36th, after the latter has been put under a life-threatening spell.
