New Exotics in Destiny 2's Edge of Fate Update Offer Overpowering Primary Weapon and Gloves with Fascinating User-Desired Ability
The Exotic Chocolate Box: First Peek at Destiny 2's Edge of Fate Exotics
Kickstart Your Adventure AnewThe alluring mystery box of exotic goodies that accompanies every new Destiny 2 expansion has long been a compelling reason to embark on a fresh journey. With the Edge of Fate expansion unfurling on July 15, the array of supercharged weapons and unique armor pieces leaves a tantalizing impression of something uniquely fresh. The focus of excitement? An ability fanatic Titan mains have been eagerly craving for years - Melas Panoplia.
In Conversation with the BossTickle your curiosity? We've gotten our hands on the expansion, had a substantial play, and also had a frank chat with game director Tyson Green about the major fallouts. The Edge of Fate, an invigorating breeze of changes is just around the corner.
The Quest for Exotics Begins: A Sneak PeekRecently, I was fortunate enough to savor six exciting new exotics at the heart of Destiny 2's expansion - a taste of what's to come. While the full arsenal may be kept under wraps, we discovered and tested six exotic wonders at the development stage.
Third Iteration: The Ultimate Void Scout RifleThe standout star in the Edge of Fate's exotic lineup is by far the Third Iteration, a void scout rifle. This fellow is a force to reckon with, a massive leap forward from the mundane contemporary exotics. Firing in an accurate spread, it navigates the fine line between chaos and precision with aplomb. Its unique traits include:
- Tri-Planar Mass Driver: The rifle sprays a set of Void energy projectiles that constrict when ADS (Aim Down Sights).
- Power Packed: It's a complete game-changer, ripe with powerful abilities that make it an exhilarating granade in the midst of the battlefield.
Here's a glimpse into how it functions - upon shooting the rifle, it unleashes a barrage of shots in a precise spread. Imagine the Cerberus+1 auto rifle shot, bolstered by its ability to inflict full damage at the range of a scout rifle. Aim down the sights for a short period, and the shots coalesce into a single, high-impact round with sniper-like accuracy. This shot then brands the target, causing it to absorb elevated damage from Third Iteration. Unleash Carnage! When you vanquish a branded target, you become invisible and attain truesight - an undisguised view of your foes, allowing you to spot them even through walls. Sounds like a recipe for chaos, doesn't it?
The build I tested was a relentless force of destruction, ripping through enemies and bosses with ease, even on the challenging legendary campaign difficulty. With reports of it having been nerfed at least twice, it's always been a controversial topic. But the developers, clearly pleased with our feedback, seem hopeful about its potential. Cross your fingers!
