‘Destiny’ Weekly Reset For Feb. 21, Perfect Titan Class Items
The ramifications of the weapon balance update from the Destiny 2.5.0.2 patch last week are still being felt by PlayStation 4 and Xbox One owners. In the meantime, the Weekly Reset for Tuesday, February 21, brings the usual refresh of activities plus a nice surprise for Titans.
Destiny Titans in need of better class items will want to go visit the Speaker in the Tower and Shiro in the Iron Temple. The former is selling perfect rolls of the Striker’s Mark and Honor of Cormorant. The latter has a perfect roll for Jolder’s Iron Sash. This is a great boon for those striving to build T12 characters.
As for last week’s patch incident that broke a number of health regeneration perks, Bungie says it is on the case. The developers are still taking feedback from the community, but the current solution is to boost the amount of health recovered for perks like Hungering Blade, Red Death, Lifesteal, Cauterize, and Transfusion. The remaining perks affected will revert back to their original state before the patch.

Wrath of the Machine Challenge Mode — Vosik
The first of two challenges for the Wrath of the Machine Raid tasks players with using all four safe rooms. Activate them using the extra SIVA charges that drop during the damage phase.

Rewards include the Perfected SIVA Ornament for Heroic raid gear, an emblem, plus either 385 Light gear for Normal mode or 400 Light gear for Hard mode.

King’s Fall Raid Challenge Mode — Oryx (Guide)
The Destiny King’s Fall Raid challenge caps off this week with special conditions to beat Oryx. The Challenge mode condition is that players must detonate 16 Blight bombs at the same time to bring Oryx’s health down from full to almost zero.
The rewards for Normal Mode are a guaranteed 320 Helmet or Primary Weapon, 320 Artifact, and a Calcified Fragment. The Hard mode loot is the same as normal, plus a 330 Helmet or Primary Weapon, a 330 Artifact, Emblem, and a new Ship.
Please consult this Inquisitr article for a full guide on how to beat the Oryx hard mode challenge.
Court of Oryx (Guide) — Tier 3: Thalnok
This mini-Crota boss plays similar to the final Dark Below Raid encounter in Destiny, with a couple of twists. It will require teamwork, as well. Like Crota, the only way to kill Thalnok is to bring his shields down to force him to kneel while a player whacks him with a sword dropped by a Knight.
