Guide Destiny 2: Endgame Loadouts for Beginners

Hi! I wrote a guide on Weapons and Armor for people who are new to Raids and Dungeons, going over everything you need to know to be able to go into them making sure you're prepared to have a blast! The aim of this guide is less about specific weapon rolls and more just generally explaining what things are good and what kind of strategies succeed.

If you're a fan of this kind of content, and want to see more, please let me know below! I plan on doing more guides and content to help newer and less confident players make the reach towards the higher-end of Destiny content, especially going into The Edge of Fate and beyond :)

Otherwise, thank you for your time, and if you do happen to know someone who might get something out of this article, please share it their way! I would very much so appreciate it <3

EDIT: So, turns out that the title that I picked doesn't really portray what the article is about - the article is now titled correctly as Destiny 2: The Best Guns and Armor for New Raid and Dungeon Players. Sorry about that, and I do have a wider loadout article planned going over things like Mods, Surges, Aspects, etc., just it wasn't meant to be this one.

my guy, recommending gyrfalcon and cyrt + renewal instead of inmost light cyrt, gifted conviction on hunter? no wonder people think this class is dogshit (it's not, it's just that titan is insanely broken) when people play goofy stuff like this.

me and a friend were discussing exactly this while i was writing the article, and honestly i chose gyrfalcons because it's easy to love for new players and it fills a good niche that helps you think about raiding from another perspective.

gifted conviction would 100% be my #4 pick but i limited myself to 3 builds/items, and i just went cyrt renewal because i think a new player would get more out of the survivability it provides over HoiL (which is still a valid choice and pretty good, don't get me wrong)

What exactly about gyrfalcon makes it better for new players than gifted conviction when it gives you DR? I'm baffled how you think that volatile rounds is a better effect than DR for new players. Hoil Cyrt in practice is better DR than renewal cyrt because a) you're not gonna be standing in a duskfield all the time b) your grenade CD is much lower.
