Lightfall is only weeks away and Bungie are showing off the weapons and gear you can earn
With the release of Destiny 2’s next expansion, Lightfall, only weeks away, Bungie have released a new trailer that shows off some of the weapons and gear that players will be able to make use of, check it out.
Fans of the series may have noticed in the trailer that there were new Strand verbs like tangles, which are bundles of quantum strands left over when enemies unravel. These tangles can be used by players using Strand to weave objects and creatures, or for other purposes tied to weapons.
If you are like me and had no idea about what was actually shown off, thankfully Bungie have released a handy list (we do like our lists here), that breaks down the new weapons and armour:
Final Warning – This Strand Sidearm shoots tracking rounds that seek out nearby enemies.
Deterministic Chaos – A Void Machine Gun that rhythmically weakens enemies as it fires.
Winterbite – A Stasis Exotic Glaive that freezes enemies on impact with frost orbs, leaving them vulnerable to follow-up attack.
Cyrtarachne’s Façade – This Exotic helmet gives extra protection as Hunters gain armor and flinch resistance when they grapple.
Abeyant Leap – When Titans use their Barricade with this Exotic leg armor, it spawns seeking projectiles that suspend enemies and gives armor to its wielder.
Swarmers – This new Exotic leg armor allows Warlocks to create a Threadling to infest and attack enemies after destroying a tangle.
The trailer also features the Quicksilver Storm catalyst upgrade in which the Exotic Auto Rifle’s grenade kills create Strand tangles that can be thrown at enemies. Quicksilver Storm is available now for all Guardians that preorder Lightfall.
While Destiny 2: Lightfall is expected at the end of the month, with the way the world works with timezones, it may not go live until March 1st here. If you can’t wait that long, the Season of the Seraph is still on going. If you have not played Destiny 2 yet and you have a PlayStation console, the game Beyond Light version of the game will be free for PlayStation Plus members this month.
