For a long time now, there have been materials and items in Destiny 2 that some players stack in their inventories by the thousands, can hardly get rid of, and would rather abolish altogether. Now, the community manager has released new info on this, which gives hope for even more inventory space.
In the past, Bungie has already abolished the outdated token system at the main NPC vendors. Instead of having to manually click away tokens, players now level up automatically. The “clicking” is now a thing of the past. And it seems that Banshee-44, the gunsmith, is now also expecting a similar rework.
The community manager made a preliminary announcement on Twitter and mentioned that on Thursday in the “This Week at Bungie” blog, they will not only announce the start date of the new raid.
- There will likely also be a change to the system with Banshee-44, so that you can get rid of all your gunsmith materials before Witch Queen.
- Changes are also expected for the annoying blue items/engrams.
The issue divides the community: Some Destiny 2 players will probably shrug their shoulders and see this announcement as not a groundbreaking improvement.
If you use the farming mode in the Destiny Item Manager (DIM), blue items are not a problem. And those who regularly hand in their materials to Banshee-44 do not have an overcrowded inventory.
That not all players have a problem with this has also been shown in the comments of the MeinMMO article on this topic:
For long-time players, the situation is different: Destiny 2 veterans have been living at the vault limit for years and stack not only excellent God Rolls and exotic armors with top values in the vault.
They have both gunsmith materials and mod components piling up, plus a lot of other things. Those in the endgame usually play all three characters and inevitably face a huge space problem at some point.
The YouTuber and Destiny 2 content creator KackisHD recently expressed this on Twitter:
It literally overwhelms me that every time I mention the vault space, a lot of people say: “Well, MY vault isn’t full, so why should we improve the game?”

This is what the community says: That Bungie is now addressing this issue makes players finally hope for a real improvement. Especially since they believe that in Destiny 2 the rework of material management and the quality-of-life changes for blue items are long overdue.
When should the changes come into the game? You will probably have time until the end of Season 15 to hand in your materials to Banshee-44. The new system will then come with the launch of Witch Queen on February 22, 2022. Some players appreciate that Bungie has made this announcement already now.
I have more than 80,000 [gunsmith materials], every time I delete a weapon, I get more back. I’m glad we have a month to get rid of them

What is your opinion on the announcement? Do we have another positive quality-of-life change for Destiny 2 coming up here? Or do you think this is an adjustment that Bungie could have skipped in favor of other changes? If you were the developer of Destiny 2, what would you change for the players of Destiny 2 first?
