Those looking forward to the 7th Invitation of the Nine and new lore in Destiny 2 will be disappointed. The new bounty from Xur cannot be completed. What is going on?
This task is about: For some time now, Xur has been bringing the so-called Invitations of the Nine. These are a kind of bounties that are heavily story-focused and revolve around the mysterious group “The Nine”.
In total, there are 9 such bounties. If all have been played so far, then today, April 26, with the appearance of Xur, the 7th Invitation of the Nine would be due – called “The Tower”. But there is a problem.
What is the problem with the new invitation? Before many players start the 7th Invitation of the Nine tonight, the developers have issued a warning.
In the current “This Week at Bungie” blog, they point out that the 7th Invitation of the Nine cannot be successfully completed due to an impossible requirement.
Why is the completion impossible? The invitation “The Tower” requires players to collect metaphysical samples from defeated enemies in the Tangled Shore. Specifically, Guardians are to complete the strike “The Hollowed Lair” and defeat Vex, Hive, and Scorn enemies. They have the needed samples.
The problem: In the Tangled Shore, there are no Vex at all. However, samples from this enemy race are a prerequisite for successfully completing this bounty and block progress. It seems Bungie has overlooked this.
However, note: This issue does not affect the other Invitations of the Nine. If you haven’t reached the 7th Invitation yet, there should be no difficulties. Only “The Tower” is currently not functioning.
When will there be a solution? How this “design flaw” occurred is something Bungie apparently cannot explain. However, they are currently working on how to fix this as soon as possible. There is currently no specific date for a fix.
