Each week in Destiny 2 sees Bungie introduce a variety of new content, guns for sale, and a fresh rotation of the featured raid, dungeon, and Nightfall. Nightfalls are hard-mode strikes where players are challenged to complete missions, strikes, and seasonal Battlegrounds on an increased difficulty. Meanwhile, Grandmaster Nightfalls are even harder versions that many regard as the most difficult content in Destiny 2. GMs are supposed to be a challenge, but this week\u2019s is so difficult that it has players questioning if it\u2019s even fair. PsiOps Battleground GM branded \u201cunfair\u201d by Destiny 2 players Destiny 2 players have been complaining about the new Grandmaster Nightfall released alongside the June 27 weekly update, Psiops Battleground. Upset by the GM one player posted: \u201cChallenge is fun. Past Nightfalls, even such as The Lightblade, had it. The last two Battlegrounds made into GMs? That is not a challenge, that is an unfair and tedious nightmare not worth my time.\u201d Another fan responded by explaining what they believe makes the current GM so frustrating: \u201cThe only part that is genuinely bad is the final boss room. The one-shot lightning attack that can go through walls because it wants to is not fun or challenging whatsoever.\u201d The mechanic described appears during the final boss, Savath\u00fbn. She is capable of shooting an Arc lightning attack that travels quickly in a straight line and can pass through walls. If it isn\u2019t seen and avoided in time it can immediately kill you. One response did propose a potential solution: \u201cReduce your FPS to 30 FPS. Apparently, the lightning is suffering from that age old damage bug where the damage is tied to your fps. lowering your fps will lower the damage so it won\u2019t one-shot you.\u201d Others downplayed PsiOps Battleground\u2019s difficulty, claiming older GMs were more challenging: \u201cEarly GMs were a lot harder and unfair lol,\u201d and \u201cI still wake up in a cold sweat over A Garden World GMs.\u201d Bungie has been under a lot of criticism lately with some Destiny 2 players being disappointed by the seasonal Fishing Rally quest and the perceived neglect of PvP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2 players are losing it over \u201cunfair\u201d Grandmaster Nightfall The weekly update brought with it a new Grandmaster Nightfall, but Destiny 2 players are not having a fun time labeling the new GM as \u201cunfair,\u201d due to one particularly frustrating mechanic.
