Destiny 2 Details Weapon Adjustments And New Perks Coming In Season 20
As Destiny 2 awaits the launch of its Lightfall expansion at the end of the month, Bungie has taken time to pen a dev blog that offers an in-depth preview of what players can expect when the expansion drops and Season 20 begins.
The meat of the expansion will be dedicated to a “substantial” balance for heavy weapons in PvE which Bungie goes into detail for each weapon variant. The team will also be adding new subclass verbs for exotic weapons, all of which are dissected in the new dev blog, along with all of the perk updates and new strand subclass skills that will be introduced in Lightfall.
Bungie also dives into the nerfs to fusion rifles, the new shotgun reticles that more accurately show the spread pattern, various adjustments to machine guns, and buffs to the grenade launcher’s blast radius, projectile collision, and overall damage.
Lightfall launches on February 28th and will mark the beginning of Season 20. In the meantime, you can check out the full dev blog on the Bungie official site if you want to dive into the details yourself.
