This Week in Destiny - 03/12/2026

This week in Destiny, we are launching our next Community Challenge. This time, rather than testing your prowess with weapons and skill at our dungeons or raids, we're asking you to share your best screenshots of scenes or environments in Renegades.

• Send us your Postcards from the Frontier
• Buildcrafting basics in the New Player Guide
• Active and upcoming in-game modifiers and activities

No postage necessary on these postcards though the Postmaster might appreciate some Glimmer.

From the Frontier with Love

Over the years, you've explored throughout the galaxy, from high towers to bottomless pits not to mention frigid mountaintops or being temporally displaced in a time desert. We want to know what locales in Renegades Guardians find the most inspiring to explore - we're kindly requesting you share your most memorable vistas in our new Community Challenge: Postcards from the Frontier.

The basic rules for this Community Challenge follow:

• Take inspiration from Destiny 2: Renegades to capture environments from Mars, Venus, Europa, or beyond. You can dress up in Renegades garb but if you have another style that you think will fit with your scene, go for it! Screenshots or artwork will be considered for this Community Challenge.
  • Characters or scene recreations from non-Bungie media will not qualify.
• Capture a minimum of two screenshots for your submission. For artwork submissions, please include a work-in-progress image or timelapse video.
• Post the screenshots or artwork to Bluesky, Twitter/X, Instagram, or Reddit using the #RenegadesPostcard hashtag.
  • Including the hashtag is not mandatory but helps us find your submission.
• Share your Bungie ID (with numbers) in your submission post.
  • Bungie IDs added after initial submission are not eligible to receive a reward.

Find your favorite spots, take creative screenshots, and share them with us! We will post our favorite Postcards from the Frontier picks on March 19 and March 26 and reward their creators with the Golden Age emblem. Check it out below!

Ready to get started? Just a few housekeeping notes to add:

• Reward recipients are determined on a case-by-case basis by the Community Team.
• Emblems are distributed manually and should be expected to arrive within 30 days of the Community Challenge's end date of March 26.
  • EDIT: This line has been updated from an earlier version that could have been interpreted as a later end date for the Community Challenge.
• The same submission may be shared across multiple social media platforms if the submission content and Bungie IDs are identical between the platform posts.
• Any use of generative AI is not allowed and will result in automatic disqualification. If we determine that generative AI was used in a winning submission, any reward granted may be revoked.
• Your Bungie account must be in good standing to receive a reward. If we determine your account has broken the Code of Conduct, any reward may be revoked and we may take further action against your account.

View the full set of Community Challenge rules on our newly updated Bungie Community Emblems guide.

And last but not least, to help you capture your postcards in the best way possible, here's how to turn off the UI and get clean screenshots easily!

• Open the Director screen.
• Navigate to your Settings menu.
• Go to the Gameplay tab.
• Set HUD Opacity to Off.

New Player Guide: How to Make Builds

Our next chapter for Destiny 2's New Player Guide is focused on a key aspect of the game: how to make a build. We go over different concepts that should be known when you want your Guardian to be the most powerful being in the whole universe.

Instead of listing a bunch of good builds, our approach for this chapter has been more open-ended, helping readers understand the concepts so they can put them to use alongside their creativity to create the best builds possible. Find our New Player Guide for Destiny 2 here.

Active and Upcoming Activities

Suros Week: March 10 to 17

During this week, all Suros foundry weapons are overcharged in Portal activities. In other words, bring a Suros weapon and see it do more damage to enemies. Equip a Motif-41 or a Monody-44 and let us know how it goes.

Trials of Osiris: March 13 to 17

Saint-14 got two fan favorites paired together this weekend. Good opportunity to get a few more rolls of a top tier Hand Cannon, maybe aim for a few PvE ones this time.

• Map: Javelin-4
• Reward: Corundum Hammer

Next week, we also have a nice combo:

• Map: Altar of Flame
• Reward: The Immortal

Heavy Ammo Surge: March 17 to 24

We had a Special Ammo Surge last week, so it's fitting we have a Heavy Ammo Surge modifier active in the Portal just two weeks after. Your Power weapons will recharge ammo, so take this as an opportunity to go crazy and not worry much when using them. We know the Rocket Launcher enthusiasts will have a good time.

Known Issues List

• Generators in the Fearsome Retainer Renegades mission cannot be damaged by the alt-fire missiles or stomp attack. They can still be destroyed with primary fire lasers.
• Tempest Strike cannot be used while a Renegade Ability Jammer is active.
• In rare instances, players who are pulled forward into the Epoptes encounter in The Desert Perpetual (Epic) can get stuck in a black screen until the fireteam wipes.
• Wolfsbane's light attacks are displaying the visual effects of Void instead of Solar.

We Love Swords

We've been a bit obsessed with Swords lately. We just think they are neat.

10.000 Kills on Every Exotic

This is true dedication to a goal. But what's wrong with Whisper of the Worm?

And so, this TWID comes to an end. This was another week on the lighter side, but next week we're planning to share some fun info on Guardian Games, coming March 24. The team is hard at work on our June update, too, and we're looking forward to sharing more with you soon!

Speaking of... if there are any specific perks you'd love to see on any raid or dungeon weapons, don't hesitate to shout 'em out at us. We have a handful of perks we've wanted to see added but are always happy to hear your feedback. What would your godroll Tier 5 New Purpose Pulse Rifle from the Duality dungeon be? How about Nessa's Oblation Slug Shotgun from Root of Nightmares? Can't wait to share some of the armor set bonuses the team has been cooking up, too.

Not to mention the Pantheon 2.0 gear plans!
