In Destiny 2, Guardians are currently dealing with the quest for the new hand cannon Lumina. They might forget that they only have a little time left to take advantage of a popular farming trick: Bungie is putting an end to the Menagerie cheese with the next patch!
What trick are we talking about? Since the launch of the Menagerie with Season 7 of Destiny 2, players have been using a popular farming trick. After defeating the final boss, there are still 300 seconds left in the activity to open the final loot chest, check out new items, or just hang around and pose.
However, players utilize the 300 seconds to open the final chest multiple times. Just grab the items from the chest and run towards the exit until you reach a new area. This will be indicated in the lower left corner of your screen with a new area name.
Now you can simply refill your Cup of Opulence with new runes and run back to the chest, which will magically be filled again. You can repeat this as many times as you like until the 300 seconds run out. PC players have an advantage here as they have shorter loading times in the menus.
When will the trick be fixed? This popular farming method was not intended by Bungie and will be fixed next week on July 9th with the next patch.
Players using this cheese should not be afraid of punishment from Bungie. This is clearly a bug in favor of the players.
In the blog “This Week at Bungie,” the developers themselves stated, that players should hurry to farm while the bug still exists.
What is the Menagerie? The Menagerie is a new group activity that has come into the game with the Season of Opulence. You fight in various rounds in hitherto unknown areas of the massive Leviathan, the Cabal ship that also hosts the raids of the same name.
The activity offers matchmaking and some mechanics that you would also find in raids. Additionally, you can farm a total of four different armor sets and 28 different weapons with the Cup of Opulence. We have listed the recipes for the Cup here.
