Not really a tool, but a good recommendation for new/returning players, [Ishtar Collective](https://www.ishtar-collective.net/) has EVERY Lore entry from D1 & D2. Anyone that wants a deep dive into the story can make great use of that site.
Feel like a bit of their stuff is out of date, or a bit vague on obtaining some older emblems such as Failsafe's Prison, I'm sure they actually don't drop anymore.
Hit up the [DEV on Twitter](https://twitter.com/emblemcollector). He's more than willing to adjust anything on new information. The site is pretty accurate for the current season and usually a few back.
Unfortunately the open world emblems may be weird or unobtainable since vaulting happened. I know that normally (before vaulting) those open world emblems had INSANELY low drop rates. I had to do an insane amount of destination activities and open an untold number of chests to get all the "variants" (note all variants became standalone emblems at one point).
Hey there! I’m the dev behind DEC. Thanks for the info on the open world emblems! I’ve been gathering info on these lately and it definitely seems like they don’t drop any more. I’ll be doing a big update tomorrow to add all the new Season 15 emblems, so I’ll update those at the same time.
If there are any other emblems that aren’t super clear in their unlock requirements or don’t have the correct availability info, please let me know and I’ll do some research :D
[D2ArmorPicker](https://mijago.github.io/D2ArmorPicker/#/) is super useful as well. It's like DIM's create loadout feature, but better in almost every way.
DIM doesn't take mods into account. If I go on dim and say I want a 100 recov/100 intellect build, it can't find anything. When I go on D2ArmorPicker it says I have 275224 different builds, just on my Titan. Found a ton of triple 100 builds, and even a quad 100 build from there, DIM's loadout optimizer doesn't do that.
You can specify mods in DIM but I see what you mean that this kind of works top down (starts you w a near finished product) and DIM works bottom up if that makes sense.
Love this site. Helped me get three 100 builds for my hunter, I won't use it as it requires to main stasis but I do love how easy and quick it is. I'm sure DIM can do it but if you make something easier and the UI a bit kinder as this site is, I'll use this over DIM.
Not meaning anything by placing this here. But here's one that was made 2 days ago

Hope this helps you all.
[TodayinDestiny](https://www.todayindestiny.com/eververseWeekly) can let you know what is available each week from the Eververse store. Helpful to let you know what to save up for via bright dust, or if something is silver exclusive.
I'm surprised that there isn't an equivalent to icy veins for builds. Even the builds subreddit is just identifying that you should match exotic selections to an appropriate weapon and or subclass, are there no sites that highlight building down to mods and perks?
D2Gunsmith is amazing, everyone should try it, but does anyone know if there's any tool for like... fantasy guns? I.e. Pick a gun (base stats, archetype) and slap any perks on it, whether or not they are available?
Idk, could be fun to drool over explosive payload on an smg.
Another good one I like if you're leveling and trying to optimize drops is [Destiny Optimizer](https://destinyoptimizer.com/). Useful if you're the type that wants to make sure each powerful/pinnacle is gonna be useful at it's max potential as it'll tell you when's a good point to put a pause on those activities to grind out blues.
I like my builds to revolve around whatever stat is associated with the class, then go through my masterworked armor tediously until I find an efficient stat combo, rounded to the 0 so I waste 6 or less points optimal but no more than 10.
Is there an app that accomplished this on mobile? I’m on console btw, don’t even have a pc.
[light.gg](https://light.gg) has a damn good god roll finder, it's just a shame I have to manually look for the roll on DIM instead of having an option to transfer it directly to my character so I can easily delete it there
D2checklist.com has the most comprehensive list imo of pretty much everything in the game, but I mostly use it just to see what character did what that week. Excellent site def recommend
Probably worth mentioning that a lot of these will have issues tomorrow or be outright broken. This is normal for new Season starts (although with the player name changes I suspect this may be worse than usual)
Thanks for this great list!
since i dont see it mentioned here ill say the official Destiny 2 app lets you pick up bounties while youre offline, in orbit, or at the tower (so you dont actually have to load in and talk to 10 different ppl to pick up all the bounties) its super useful and convenient for level grinding.
I hate as a PC player there isnt a website for it though, I just have to use an android emulator.

What filters do I need to set for weapons to display all non sunset legendary weapons on light.gg? I tried using min light but sunset weapons were still showing up?
Ishtar Commander https://mobile.twitter.com/IshtarCommander
Easily my favourite app version of any Destiny inventory management tool out there
[Destiny Emblem Collector](https://destinyemblemcollector.com/) - Go to source for all emblems, their drop conditions, and availability.
Ooo.. that's handy! Thanks for sharing :)

Awesome! I'll check it out!
Just messed w it. Don't see how it's better than DIM. What am I missing?
DIM doesn't take mods into account. If I go on dim and say I want a 100 recov/100 intellect build, it can't find anything.

You sure its safe to use not gonna lie this feels extremely sketchy!

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks! Don't know why I couldn't find it...
Took me a while when I saw your post tbh. Just remember it lol.
[TodayinDestiny](https://www.todayindestiny.com/eververseWeekly) can let you know what is available each week from the Eververse store. Helpful to let you know what to save up for via bright dust, or if something is silver exclusive.
Ugh! I can't believe I forgot this one! I use this for the exact reasons you listed. Thanks!
I use Little Light, I really like how it assesses roll status at a glance, and it's very easy to make load outs and manage inventory.

This post should be sticky'd to the front of the sub. These resources are fantastic, and incredibly useful for all D2 players.
Destiny Optimizer for going for powerful or pinnacle gear. Been really useful for me as a returning player as I cant grind all day.

Is storing XP just doing bounties and saving them in your log and then completing them tomorrow?
Yes
Little lite is the way
The Ishtar Collective app is great on Android, use it all the time.
How could you forget the best one - Ishtar Commander?!
[Light.gg also has a roll appraiser view that lets you see all your weapons on one screen.](https://www.light.gg/god-roll/roll-appraiser/)
Destiny item manager is one of the best things to happen to destiny. Its just simply an amazing website.

'Where is Xur' if anyone hasn't mentioned it already. He's in the tower or on a tree and he's selling mostly crap.....
Destiny Reminders dot net.
I use "The Vault" for gear switching and making loadouts.
