Annoying and game-breaking bugs
It's funny how when players find a farm of grind skip method, it's fixed by Bungie in hours, but game-breaking bugs that constantly annoy the players for years are still ignored by Bungie, for example:

- The glimmer event where you have to beat a giant fallen ball boss, where he has 2 or 3 phases where you kill smaller balls to un-shield him, he still remains shielded and invincible, you have to leave the event, there is no way shape or form where that event is still winnable.
- The Season of The Haunted weapons like Tears of Contrition or Austringer, and Drang (Baroque) still don't have a masterwork, the masterwork box is simply missing.
- Some weapons, New Light update weapons most of the cases, still don't get enhancement perks even if you enhance them. Let me explain this: I upgraded my Midnight Coup and Hammerhead to level 17, then when trying to upgrade the perks, the game simply won't let me, the perks are in red borders and nothing shows up when you hover your pointer over tier 3 enhancement box, masterwork still being disabled, but when you hover over the gun in inventory, it says that the weapon is fully enchanted. This bug occurs when you don't upgrade the first column perk at level 11, then second at 17, and you level the weapon all the way to level 17 first. The game won't let you upgrade perks anymore, happened to me 4 times.
- There's a strike in some Cosmodrome-like area, I don't remember it's name where you must break a giant shield and the boss is standing in the giant dome-like shield. At some point, doesn't matter you do the mechanic, the shield won't come down, the boss is standing still in the dome, you can't go inside it, but you can climb it. Again, the same as the fallen ball boss, the game won't let you un-shield the boss, making the strike impossible to complete.

And those are just some bugs I encounter daily, maybe there are others. It's so frustrating that some of them are in the game for years and Bungie won't do anything about them, probably they are so easy to fix too.

As far as masterworking weapons and upgrading the 2 perks that are enhanced, the weapon will not show as masterworked unless you ALSO choose an upgraded Frame. The first square to the far left that gives you 4 or 5 options to increase various perks. +10 Range, Stability, Handling, etc. Which will cost 17 enhancement cores plus some glimmer.

As for the other elements, I can't speak for everyone else as you have, but I can speak for myself which I would also say as you have, and those issues do not bother me, they bother just you and I do not know again, that they bother the entire community. Can you actually validate that the entire community also has issue with these vague issues? I say vague because they're actually lacking in specific detail, If there is a boss, name that boss and name the encounter and or public event to clarify more exacts for the community to bounce off with you on and debate whether or not it's an issue and perhaps the devs will pay attention.

"The glimmer event" is very vague. What glimmer event?
"The fallen boss." What is the name of the boss?
"There's a strike..." What is the name of the strike in the cosmo-drome like area?

If in fact these are bugs and or issues as well, posting about in in "General Discussions" allows you to debate your issue with the community but it's not the proper place to submit actual concerns with these issues to the developers. The proper place for that would be under the "Feedback & Suggestions" category.

Do a little more work at creating a good case with as much detail as possible and perhaps you're likely to create ripples in the water. Vague descriptions of "this" and "that" doesn't do "this thing" do not present a very convincing case.

Good luck.

They're confusing the Glimmer Drill public event with the Ether Resupply public event.

You wanted to sound smart but you didn't catch the wave here. Let me explain this again:
- The public event I was talking about was the DESTINY 2 ETHER RESUPPLY HEROIC PUBLIC EVENT, how did you not know what I'm talking about in 4k hours played?
- The Season of The Haunted weapons and New Light weapons perks issue. What made you think I don't know how shaping weapon upgrades work?
The weapons I talked about are weapons dropped from engrams, from Xur, or Presage mission, AND YOU CAN'T MASTERWORK THEM. I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT SHAPING WEAPONS. Also the New Light weapons are non craftable, making your point in selecting weapon frame upgrades not valid. You can't select weapon frames on weapons that you upgrade as part of the Final Shape upgrade system, I'm not talking about shaping weapons in The Enclave.

What are you on? Why some of you guys always try to defend Bungie and belittle the people finding issues with the game like we don't actually play the game? LMAO.

Disabling something that is exploitable is quicker to fix than bugs that require much more triage, you mouthbreather.

He's talking about 2 things, where the same thing occurs. He's talking about the typical edz/nessus event where the fallen barrier boss can become unkillable as it retains it's shield no matter what. It seems to be due to vanguard strikes on same locations. Thats the first thing.
The second is the cabal you typically enter a strike for to kill. So it's the same issue.
The problem is the same, it intertwines world activity with strike activity. And the game mixes up the code and for some reason in some cases, the dome never gets dropped, he can never be killed, its rare but does happen - typically in world entered activity. Same thing witht he faller "BALL" boss which shield is retained until timer counts down and activity ends and you fail to kill it.
edit: wouldn't surprise me if this also happens in other activities.

I would have assisted, but since you're gonna be a cockwomble to somebody who is asking you to clarify, when you yourself put the wrong things in the post, you can eat ♥♥♥♥.

@Jesse I was talking to the first guy answering, but ok. At least some of you guys know the issues stated by me are real problems, not some made-up bs.
