Summary
Bungie revealed its World First race plans for the newDestiny 2: The Final ShapeSalvation’s Edge raid, which sees players face off against the Witness in a conclusive showdown. In the World First race, fireteams will compete to be the firstDestiny 2players to complete every encounter from the new raid.
Launched on June 4,Destiny 2: The Final Shapebrings players to the heart of the Traveler to stop the Witness' plans and prevent a second collapse. The expansion includes a new campaign, various in-game activities, new Prismatic subclasses, and much more as players experience the conclusion of the Light and Darkness saga. A lot of the excitement about the expansion was met with frustration sinceDestiny 2: The Final Shapeexperienced several issues on launch day, preventing many players from logging in and accessing the new content. Bungie is working to remedy many of these issues leading into the launch of the new Salvation’s Edge raid.
The Salvation’s Edge raid will go live on June 7 at 10:00 a.m. PT inDestiny 2: The Final Shape, marking the beginning of the World First race. Contest Mode will be enabled for the first 48 hours, and players participating in the raid will need to be at a 1965 power level, which is the cap for all the raid’s encounters. Moreover, the completion oftheDestiny 2: The Final Shapecampaignand Wild Card exotic quest is a requirement for the fireteam leader to launch the raid. This means that only one out of the six fireteam members will need to meet this requirement. The first fireteam to finish every encounter and open the final chest will be declared World First, earn Salvations’ Edge World First raid belts, and receive custom artwork of their fireteam by Swedish 3D artist Ohlac.
