The Season Of Arrivals began in Destiny 2 this week and whereas the entire season was saved a shock up till launch, one arrival is a much bigger shock than the remainder. Witherhoard, the brand new Exotic grenade launcher you’ll be able to seize from the season go observe, will generally mysteriously spit sufficient harm to soften a boss. Most, if not all, of a raid boss’s well being bar can vanish within the blink of a watch. Witherhoard already appeared robust to me however this, rattling.
Witherhoard is an Exotic breech-loaded grenade launcher in your kinetic shot, which makes use of Special ammo. It fires huge gloops of Taken blight, dealing harm over time in a fairly large space if it hits the bottom or if it hits an enemy it’ll go inside, deal DoT, then spawn a blight once they die. Even when merely working as meant, Witherhoard (identified affectionately as Blighting Lion to devotees of Destiny’s best gun) is first rate. It’s nice for any PvE with numerous enemies and also you’ll possible have seen many individuals gumming up maps in Crucible this week. Plus it’s obtainable at rank 1 on the paid season go observe (rank 35 on the free) so a great deal of people have already got it. There is a matter.
Players have seen that generally, simply generally, Witherhoard will accomplish that very far more harm than meant. No one is aware of why. It simply occurs. Here’s Destiny ‘Tuber Rick Kackis demonstrating the bug melting bosses within the Last Wish raid:
Might we be witnessing the start of a brand new Telesto, one other gun which retains sprouting random wild issues? I virtually hope so. Nice to have just a little chaos within the system, so long as it’s not inflicting huge issues in aggressive modes. Wait. Hang on. That may be why a few of my Gambit Prime matches went so horribly mistaken final evening? Maybe I’m not so up for this.
Bungie group supervisor “dmg04” replied to a video of Garden Of Salvation’s boss getting melted with a powerful three-point tweet:
Season Of Arrivals seems promising so far, definitely much better than Season Of The Worthy. It’s main as much as the Beyond Light expansion in September, when Bungie will even take away some older, less-played elements of the game and produce again some bits of Destiny 1.
