On July 17, 2018, the update 1.2.3 brings Bounties to Destiny 2. Guardians now have daily tasks to engage in. However, the Bounties have some new features compared to Destiny 1. We have the details.
In Destiny 1, Bounties offered players daily tasks to increase their clan reputation or earn XP points to level up their gear.
However, this feature was removed in Destiny 2. Players were supposed to have fewer “obligations”. No one should feel pressured to accomplish something every day.
However, the studio later realized that it was not a good decision and is now bringing back optional daily tasks with the July update 1.2.3 on Tuesday, July 17, 2018 – with some changes.
Bounties Return – With Two New Mechanics
Bounties will soon be making a return. Bounties in Destiny 2 retain a large portion of the characteristics that the Bounties had during the “Taken King” era.
This is what makes Bounties in Destiny 2 special:
- They can be collected from various vendors
- They usually provide XP and clan reputation
- Some Bounties offer better rewards
- Bounties can be redeemed in the field, allowing immediate rewards without going back to the Tower or vendor
- Some Bounties may drop in the wild (in Forsaken)
There are two new mechanics: If Bounties are left incomplete, they will expire. However, if you wish to play them later, it will cost you some Glimmer. This is to prevent players from hoarding every Bounty until their inventory is full and then sorting them out later – without restricting Guardians with a very limited Bounty capacity.
The Rewards: In Forsaken, more vendors will offer Bounties. Some Bounties will lure players with legendary or even better rewards for successful completions.
More details should be found by the fans themselves: As to how the individual Bounties work and where to find them, Guardians should discover that for themselves, according to Bungie. And next week you will already have the chance to do so.
What do you think of the return of Bounties? And what do you think of the changes?
