The activity, introduced with Into The Light, allowed Guardians to earn standard and limited edition versions of 12 Brave weapons. The former remained when The Final Shape launched while the latter \u2013 which boasted unique visuals and more perk choices \u2013 were removed. Bungie clearly signposted that limited edition weapons wouldn\u2019t be sticking around after the aforementioned expansion was released, but that hasn\u2019t stopped players from seeking changes to make the activity feel less \u201cworthless.\u201d Voicing their \u201cwish\u201d for the return of shiny Brave weapons in a Reddit thread, the post\u2019s author believed that in its current form, Onslaught felt \u201ckinda worthless,\u201d and that the standard Brave arsenal alone \u201cdoesn\u2019t feel like there\u2019s a good reason to farm them.\u201d While others agreed with the author\u2019s view, most believed the core issue that affected Onslaught\u2019s viability was the removal of the Hall of Champions and, by extension, weapon attuning. \u201cI don\u2019t mind the shinies being gone. I mind not being able to target farm anymore,\u201d read one comment. \u201cI\u2019m fine with shinies not being in the game anymore, it makes them special,\u201d another echoed, adding, \u201cThe only thing I really hate about Onslaught at the moment, is that attunement is not a thing anymore.\u201d \u201cFor me, it\u2019s less about the shiny weapons and more about the focusing,\u201d one more agreed. \u201cIt was a pain in the ass to get the roll I wanted even with the focusing, but now there\u2019s little incentive for me to play.\u201d Attuning to one of the 12 Brave weapons in the Hall of Champions granted a sizable boost to drop rates for the gun attuned and, following buffs, guaranteed at least one further drop upon full completion of a 50-wave run. As an added blow to its popularity, Onslaught doesn\u2019t reward Pinnacle gear for weekly completion, giving Guardians still making strides towards the 2000 Power Cap little incentive to bother. Bungie could reinstate one or more of Into The Light\u2019s features in a future patch, but it has not any such guarantee thus far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2 players still puzzled by popular Onslaught feature removal BungieDestiny 2 players have been lamenting the loss of several key features that contributed to the popularity of Onslaught.
