Bungie Leaves Destiny 2 T5 Armor Glitch Unfixed, Letting Players Farm 3 Sets in Minutes

1 articles · Updated · GameRant · Jul 5

Summary

  • Bungie community manager dmg04 confirmed a Destiny 2 glitch that redirects Master Lost Sector rewards into easy Tier 5 armor farming will not be fixed.
  • A full Engram inventory sends Lost Sector drops to the Tower Postmaster, where unopened rewards can turn into Ferropotent, Smoke Jumper, or Techsec pieces instead of the original location set.
  • Players can trigger the method quickly because Master Lost Sectors also sometimes drop Exotic Engrams, helping fill inventory fast and making repeated T5 farming possible in under a minute.
  • The exploit matters because Ferropotent and Smoke Jumper are prized 2-piece sets, while all 3 sets are normally harder to obtain through Vanguard Engrams.
  • A July 7 hotfix is still set to address Vanguard reputation gains in Monument of Triumph, which should ease normal acquisition even as the armor glitch remains available.
