Destiny 2 has gone from having a bit of a content drought to being in the midst of not only its next seasonal event, The Dawning, but also the Bungie 30th Anniversary pack. While the 3.4.0 patch added big changes to player abilities, including how Supers are generated, it also buffed one particular enemy to give the poor soul a chance against a trio of Guardians raining down super abilities. The previously PlayStation exclusive \u201cLake of Shadows\u201d strike will now be a little tougher, as Grask, the final boss, has been buffed. Destiny 2 buffs its weakest Strike boss Poor Grask has suffered plenty of deaths over the years from players that enter his area with their Super gauge full, with a Fireteam of three Guardians usually able to defeat him in seconds. Destiny\u2019s community manager dmg04 recently hinted at changes to the character on Twitter. \ud83d\udca0Grask (The Consumed, also known as the easiest Strike boss in the game) has a bone to pick with Guardians who have been disrespectful in Grandmaster Nightfalls. \ud83d\udca0Be wary the next time you attempt to &#8220;&#8221;farm&#8221;&#8221; Lake of Shadows.\u2014 dmg04 (@A_dmg04) December 8, 2021 That had fans wondering what the update would be. New mechanics? An invincibility phase? As it turns out, the 3.4.0 update was much more straightforward than that. According to the patch notes: \u201cTo bring this boss encounter more in line with other strikes and our modern sandbox gameplay, Grask\u2019s health has been increased significantly.\u201d Read more: Everything we know about The Dawning 2021 &#8211; Some players have said that the boss feels tankier, while others have noted that they\u2019ve never seen Grask do anything other than stand there and take damage. \u201cI\u2019ve literally never seen him do anything other than appear and then immediately die in all my years of playing,\u201d one Redditor said. \u201cYou know what, good for him\u201d. The Strike still remains one of the game\u2019s fastest to complete \u2013 meaning if you\u2019re farming for an Exotic Cypher, it\u2019s likely it still won\u2019t take you that long. On tougher difficulties, though, it could be more of a challenge. In any case, at least we\u2019ll be able to use Gjallarhorn to whittle down his health bar quickly \u2013 even if Grask isn\u2019t quite the pushover he was before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2 finally buffed its easiest boss to combat farming BungieDestiny 2 players tackling the Lake of Shadows will be in for a surprise when they next visit Grask in his lair.
