Edge of Fate Reveal & Loot Buffs | Everything You Need to Know (July 1st Update)
Today we're breaking down everything you need to know about Destiny 2 this week. From the latest weekly reset to Bungie’s live reveals for Edge of Fate, we've got a lot to cover! There’s some big news, especially for those chasing last-chance rewards, loot buffs, and the introduction of new engrams. If you’re ready, let’s jump into the details!
Bungie’s Live Stream: Edge of Fate Reveal
Before we dive into the gameplay stuff, let’s talk about Bungie’s upcoming developer live stream. It’s happening on Tuesday, July 1st, at 10:00 AM Pacific, and it’s your chance to get a sneak peek into what’s coming in the Edge of Fate expansion. Bungie has promised to share more details about the campaign, the new world tier system, and upcoming sandbox changes.
This stream is especially exciting because Bungie has been pretty tight-lipped about the specifics of Edge of Fate, so we’re all eager to hear more. Expect updates on power progression, portal guardian ranks, and some quality of life changes too. If you’re into Destiny lore or gameplay updates, this will be an important moment.
Bonus: If you tune in to the stream on Bungie’s Twitch channel for at least 15 minutes (with a linked Bungie account), you’ll get an exclusive emblem. Keep an eye on the description box for more details, and let me know if you’ll be watching!
Last Chance Rewards: Lotus Eater & Shaora’s Wrath Adept
As we move through the final weeks of the current year in Destiny 2, there are some last-chance rewards you won’t want to miss. This week marks the final opportunity to grab the Lotus Eater from the Nightfall, and Shaora’s Wrath Adept from Trials. These items will be moving into the new tiered system with the upcoming expansion, so if you’ve been eyeing them, now’s the time to grab a solid roll before they get changed up.
-
Lotus Eater: This is the last time we’ll see the Lotus Eater as part of the Nightfall rotation, so if you’re looking to snag it, this week’s your final chance.
-
Shaora’s Wrath Adept: Similarly, Shaora’s Wrath will no longer be available in its current form after this week, so make sure to farm it in Trials of Osiris while you can.
New Engram and Loot Buffs: Right of the Nine
This week also brings exciting loot updates with Right of the Nine. The featured dungeon this week is Ghost of the Deep, and players will have increased drop rates for currency and weapons from enemy kills and boss completions.
Additionally, the Emissary continues to offer exotic items for players who are catching up before the Edge of Fate update. Some of these exotics were in the store last week, but this week we’ll see a fresh batch available. Don’t forget that starting this week, you can also purchase nonory engrams using 350 nonory manifolds.
These engrams contain a variety of Eververse cosmetics, including Crimson Days items and Galahorn-themed gear. On July 8th, Bungie will start awarding an additional honorary engram every day to players who log in. So, if you haven’t already, make sure you’re signed up to catch this bonus!
Featured Raids and Other Activities
This week, there are also several featured raids and activities to dive into. Raids like Garden of Salvation, King's Fall, and Grasp of Avarice are all up for grabs, and they’re farmable with no loot lockouts. So if you're aiming for some great loot, it’s a good time to get in there and farm those raids.
-
Garden of Salvation: Farm legendary loot here.
-
King’s Fall: Dive into the raid for a chance to grab Touch of Malice.
-
Grasp of Avarice: Located in the Cosmodrome—perfect for anyone hunting for loot in that area.
Over on Europa, Vesper’s Host is also available, and on Neptune, the Icebreaker is farmable for those who missed it before. If you’re still hunting for Revision Zero or need upgrades, Operation Seraph Shield will be available in the Legends tab, offering a chance to complete this exotic mission and grab that weapon.
Lost Sectors and Ascendant Challenges
For those into solo activities, there are a series of Lost Sectors rotating this week:
-
July 2nd: Broken Deep
-
July 3rd: Blooming Deep
-
July 4th: Bunker E15
-
July 5th: Pedition
-
July 6th: V’s Labyrinth
-
July 7th: Exodus Garden 2A
These Lost Sectors are a great way to grab exotic engrams and other world loot drops. Plus, there’s the Ascendant Challenge, which this week takes you to Shattered Ruins in the Spine of Caris. If you’re not sure how to get there, I’ll cover the location at the end of this video!
Edge of Fate: What We Know So Far
As we get closer to Edge of Fate, the excitement around the new expansion is palpable. Bungie has been slowly dropping hints about the changes coming, and while there’s still a lot to uncover, some key features have already been highlighted.
Kepler and New Sandbox Changes
One of the big talking points in Bungie’s live stream will be Kepler, which is expected to play a significant role in the upcoming content drop. Kepler seems to be a central part of the new world tier system, which Bungie will be discussing in greater detail during the stream. From what we know, Kepler will likely introduce more difficult challenges, so expect to face even stronger enemies as you progress through new missions and objectives.
In addition to Kepler, Bungie will also touch on sandbox changes that will impact gameplay. These changes are aimed at refining the experience, improving the balance between weapons, armor, and abilities, and making Destiny 2 more engaging for both casual and hardcore players. It’ll be exciting to see how these changes will reshape the way we play.
Power Progression and Guardian Ranks
Another major update to look out for is the shift in power progression. With Edge of Fate, Bungie is planning to make progression feel more rewarding and streamlined. This could mean that it will be easier (or at least more engaging) to build up your power level and get ready for the tougher challenges ahead. Guardian Ranks, a new system introduced in previous updates, will continue to evolve, with more milestones, rewards, and ways to showcase your achievements.
If you’re someone who enjoys working towards long-term goals in Destiny 2, this new progression system will be a welcome change. It’s likely that Bungie will make it more rewarding to push through each rank, which means you’ll always have something to work toward. Plus, you’ll be able to show off your guardian rank in social spaces like the Tower, which is an added bonus!
Upcoming Loot Buffs and Farming Opportunities
When it comes to farming for loot, this week is an especially good time to dive into some activities that you might have missed previously. Bungie has introduced loot buffs across a variety of activities, giving players increased chances to score top-tier weapons and armor.
-
Ghost of the Deep: As mentioned earlier, this is the featured dungeon this week, and the loot drop chances here are boosted. Whether you’re farming for weapons or trying to snag currency, this dungeon is a great way to earn rewards quickly.
-
Emissary Exotics: The Emissary will continue to offer exotic items, giving you the opportunity to catch up on any gear you might have missed. You’ll find more exotic rewards becoming available each week as we get closer to Edge of Fate, so it’s a great time to dive in and start collecting.
-
Right of the Nine: The Right of the Nine event also continues to offer some great loot opportunities, with additional drop rates in place for a limited time. Players can grab everything from cosmetics to weapons, and the new nonory engrams are especially worth your attention.
With loot buffs across different activities, there’s no shortage of ways to earn valuable rewards this week. Whether you’re farming for a specific exotic or just enjoying the grind for new cosmetics, now’s the time to make sure your collections are up to date.
What’s Next After July 1st?
Once the Edge of Fate expansion drops, Destiny 2 will enter a whole new era. This will mark the end of certain weapons and activities in their current forms. If you haven’t already, now is the time to stock up on those last-chance rewards before they’re rotated out or moved into the new system.
-
Shaora’s Wrath: As mentioned, this adept weapon will no longer be available in its current form after this week’s reset. If you haven’t yet picked it up, now’s your final chance to add it to your collections.
-
Lotus Eater: The Lotus Eater will be leaving the Nightfall rotation for good after this week, and we’re unsure when it will return in the new tiered loot system. If you want a top-tier roll, now’s the time to farm for it.
Once Edge of Fate goes live, expect to see a shake-up in the way you approach farming for loot, exotics, and other rewards. Bungie has teased new ways to earn loot, and it looks like the overall progression and farming experience will be a lot more engaging, rewarding, and dynamic.
Prepare for Edge of Fate: What You Should Do Now
With so many changes on the horizon, it’s important to prepare for the upcoming Edge of Fate expansion. Here are a few things you should focus on as we approach the launch date:
-
Farm Key Weapons: Make sure you grab the last-chance weapons like Lotus Eater and Shaora’s Wrath before they leave the current loot pool.
-
Engram Farming: Don’t forget to farm nonory engrams and grab any Eververse cosmetics you’re missing. Bungie is offering extra honorary engrams starting on July 8th, so log in daily for bonus rewards.
-
Raid Loot: Take advantage of the no loot lockouts for featured raids like Garden of Salvation and King’s Fall. These are your chance to farm for some of the best loot in the game.
-
Level Up: As power progression continues to evolve, focus on leveling up your Guardian and making sure your gear is optimized for the challenges ahead.
Whether you’re a PvP player, a PvE enthusiast, or a bit of both, there’s plenty of content this week and in the weeks to come to keep you engaged. Edge of Fate promises to bring exciting new content, and with these tips, you’ll be ready for whatever Bungie throws your way.
