As a seasoned Guardian with years of combat under my belt, I can’t help but feel a thrill coursing through my veins as I gaze upon the new arsenal Bungie has prepared for us. The return of Ice Breaker and the debut of Alethonym are just the tip of the iceberg in this exciting season!
In the upcoming Destiny 2: Episode Revenant, a variety of novel Exotic weapons and armor pieces are being introduced for Guardians to test drive. Here’s a rundown of everything new that you can anticipate in the coming season!
In simple terms, the upcoming Episode Revenant for Destiny 2 promises to be one of our largest updates in quite some time. This fresh season brings a host of new weapons, engaging artifact mods, a challenging dungeon, and a mix of adjustments (buffs) and reductions (nerfs) that are poised to invigorate the gameplay dynamics.
When it comes to discussing top-tier builds for Hunter, Titan, and Warlock classes, the choice is frequently influenced by Exotic armor pieces and weapons. For a while now, the meta for each class has remained static, but with the introduction of new additions in Revenant Act 1, we can expect this to shift significantly.
To learn more about what lies ahead in Episode Revenant, here’s a rundown of all the fresh Exotics we’re introducing, complete with details on their distinctive abilities and benefits.
New Exotic Armor
Mask of Fealty – Hunter Exotic
The recently introduced Hunter Exotic helmet, Mask of Fealty, caters particularly well to Stasis-oriented builds. This is advantageous since the current season, Episode Revenant, leans heavily on Stasis abilities. With this helmet equipped, the Withering Blade (Stasis melee skill) can bounce off targets, generate Stasis crystals, and even provide clarity when shattering enemies with it.
Here’s the official description of the armor’s exotic perk:
- Null Factor: Withering Blade hits and bounces create a small Stasis Crystal and refund a portion of melee energy. Using Withering Blade to shatter crystals or frozen targets releases a spread of Withering Blades.
Blastwave Striders – Titan Exotic
The latest Titan Exotic leg armor, called Blastwave Striders, builds up power by landing final explosive weapon blows (such as Rocket Sidearms, Grenade Launchers, or Rocket Launchers). Once fully charged, it releases a powerful surge of energy and multiple Stasis Crystals. Essentially, it’s the Stasis-based counterpart to Hazardous Propulsion, an earlier Exotic that debuted in The Final Shape expansion.
Here’s the official description of the armor’s exotic perk:
- Blastwave Striders: “Gain resistance to your explosives. Defeat targets to charge this armor. Once charged, slide or deal explosive self-damage to rocket jump backward and blast deadly shrapnel projectiles that spawn Stasis crystals on impact. Charged rocket jumps grant Frost Armor.”
Rime-Coat Raiment – Warlock Exotic
The latest Warlock Exotic chest armor, known as Rime-Coat Raiment, significantly boosts the performance of your Stasis turrets. It extends their range and creates a Stasis crystal storm that not only slows but also freezes enemies who approach you. Essentially, this gear makes your Stasis Turrets even more formidable, which is quite remarkable considering how powerful they already are.
Here’s the official description of the armor’s exotic perk:
- Bleak Domain: “Your Bleak Watcher turrets are enhanced with extended range and are surrounded by Stasis crystals and a storm. While standing in the storm, you are granted icicles over time. Icicles activate when you fire your weapons, applying Slow to targets they hit.”
New Exotic Weapons
Alethonym – Exotic Grenade Launcher
The Alethonym is the latest seasonal Exotic and functions as a Stasis Grenade Launcher. Similarities with the Fighting Lion end there. This fresh arrival not only excels at clearing groups, but also generates ammo blocks through its two exotic abilities, making it a premier choice for high-level content.
Here’s the official description of the weapon’s exotic perks:
- Harvester Spike: “This weapon fires a Harvester Spike projectile. Dealing final blows with this weapon creates a single Vestige at the target’s location. Impaling more powerful combatants with the projectile creates a steady stream of Vestiges from the target.”
- Vestigial Alchemy: “This weapon gains energy when picking up Vestiges. R Press with at least 50% energy to cause your next projectile to create ammo bricks for you and your allies on impact. Special bricks are created at 50% energy while Heavy bricks are created at 100% energy.”
Ice Breaker – Exotic Sniper Rifle
In Destiny 2, the classic weapon known as the Ice Breaker, originally famous in the original game, is making its comeback. This time, it’ll be provided by Vesper’s Host as a new Exotic dungeon reward. Similar to its predecessor, this Stasis Sniper Rifle generates its own ammo and inflicts area of effect damage. However, Bungie has hinted at an additional perk: if you shatter Stasis Crystals with it, the Ice Breaker will gain an extra boost, effectively turning it into the ‘Ice Breaker’.
Although we haven’t received detailed information about the benefits of these items just yet, Bungie is anticipated to disclose further details as the dungeon launch approaches. Rest assured, we will inform you promptly when additional details about the legendary Sniper Rifle’s comeback become available.
