You have just completed every mission in Destiny and are now on level 20, but don't celebrate too quickly as your adventure has really just begun. Using these five tested methods here is how you can get your hands on Destiny's most desired exotic and legendary gear.
Destiny has made over $160 million in MTX revenue, and these numbers only account the data from late 2017 to early 2019.
That's extremely low for microtransactions, especially for a game that's essentially designed around it
This was back when the game wasn't free to play.
The figures are from November 2017 to February 2019 (1 year and 4 months).
Based on that projection, the MTX revenue for Destiny 2 likely would have been closer to ~$240m for 2 years.
Not sure if premium expansions are included in that figure either although ... I'd hope that they are though and that most of the revenue was for actual content like Forsaken.
People spend way too much money on cosmetics.
Seasons($10 and just got bumped to $12) and dungeon keys($10 each, two a year) are through the eververse(micro transaction) store.
So for those two years, in order to play a season, you would pay through micro transactions.
Bungie Marathon will be worse since it's designed around it as well
It makes me sad to agree... but at the same time I am looking forward to giving it a go. Destiny 2 is so far in, I find it difficult to figure out what I am meant to do first.
Let's compare something similar. Apex Legends and its ridiculous $18/$40 skins make EA a billion each year.
For as much as ppl complain how much they hate microtransactions, they sure don’t act like it. No wonder they aren’t going anywhere.
By "people" you're referring to millions and millions of people. Obviously the ones complaining aren't necessarily the same as the ones spending all that money.

In Episode 1 of Spot On, a new weekly news show, Gamespot talks about the dangers of chasing a trend.
Playing Destiny 1 on PC has been something fans have been requesting for years. It looks like Destiny 1 is now playable on PC via the RPCS3 emulator.
Great detailed article. Farming for exotic and legendary gears is my number one agenda this week. Been seeing a couple of players with some pretty sweet looking gear.
I have been using the vanguard marks method but some of these other ideas are a great way to mix it up.
I have tried every single one of these so called "Proven methods" to get Legendary gear, and after 40 hours, I am still level 24 with not one single piece of Legendary gear. I have never even seen a Legendary engram before. I bet that when I finally DO get an engram, it will end up being an Uncommon or Rare item..... The loot system really needs to be worked on. I'm getting a shit tonne of green engrams, like why? I'm level 24, why would I ever use a green item?
Admittedly I COULD have grind-ed the shit out of Vanguard or Crucible rep to buy gear, but I enjoy doing many different things in Destiny, not one thing repeatedly, because that is how I will kill my Destiny bug.
There's an error in this article. Exotic Engrams guarantee a piece of exotic armor, just for a random class.
To everyone who's bitching...
I felt your pain. But then I put about 30 hrs into the Crucible.
You will be bored and you will suck hard, but DO NOT GIVE UP.
30 hrs later, I have two Exotics from Xur; all Legendary armor; and the Venation III hand cannon. Went back to Coop Strikes where the fun is.
