"Destiny 2: Unveiling Shiny Drops, BRAVE Weapons, and Player Surge"

Destiny 2 players are grinding for limited edition shiny weapons during the Into the Light event, with drop rates estimated at around 2-3.68%. End-of-run 50 wave chests may have a higher chance of dropping shinies, and attunement may only work on Onslaught chest drops. However, attunement does not guarantee a better chance of receiving an attuned shiny. While some players may have luck with drops, others may struggle to obtain these rare weapons, prompting discussions about the rarity of these items and their availability after the event ends.

"Unlocking Brave Weapons and New Releases in Destiny 2: Into The Light"

Destiny 2's Into the Light expansion features a release schedule for new weapons, with some currently available and others set to be released over the next few weeks. The timegating system has drawn criticism, particularly regarding the limited edition "shiny" versions of the weapons, which have unique shaders and four perk options. While players can earn one copy of each shiny weapon through an Arcite quest, these versions have fixed rolls and limited perks, leading to low drop rates and the need for extensive grinding. The time limit for obtaining these shiny versions has also sparked frustration among players, prompting advice to pace grinding efforts and await potential changes to the system.
