Telesto, among Destiny 2’s earliest Exotics, is causing problems again, however this moment it appears deliberate.
What originally seemed an Easter egg or easy joke on Tuesday early morning has actually developed into a complete Twitter requisition for the weapon. What precisely it’s bring about is vague, however this is a meta-level joke the similarity which we’ve never ever seen from Bungie.
For those not well-informed, Telesto has actually been a regular trouble for Bungie over the previous couple of years. The tool came from the initial Destiny, and also pertained to Destiny 2 in its Curse of Osiris growth. It’s an Exotic Void blend rifle that, rather than capturing typical screws after billing up, fires little closeness mines that stay with the ground and also wall surfaces. For some factor, these mines have actually produced extra strange insects than anything else in Destiny 2’s background, to the factor where it’s come to be a running joke.
Whenever something shows up barged in Destiny 2, individuals quickly joke that it’s Telesto’s mistake. Those that’ve been around the Destiny block possibly have a preferred Telesto insect that they bear in mind lovingly. For instance, throughout the Forsaken period of Destiny 2, I lovingly bear in mind everyone shooting Telesto at their feet in the Blind Well activity. This, somehow, advanced the task’s development bar very swiftly, permitting you to avoid all the adversaries and also obtain the incentives in simply a min or more. (A regular conclusion usually took more than 10 mins). Why did it do that? Don’t consider me, male, that’s simply Telesto.
So when Telesto began acting oddly on Tuesday, everybody briefly believed it was simply foregone conclusion.

First, rather than firing its normal mines, Telesto began firing rockets right into the skies.

Then gamers found that the rocket point was an alternating fire setting for the tool, which it showed up to belch black smoke when terminated. This appeared a little also intricate to simply be a pest, also for Telesto.
And so YouTubers, banners, and also followers began to place their heads with each other to attempt and also “solve” whatever was taking place. This primarily simply included some gamers firing right into the skies and also declaring the randomized bolts looked like constellations, which after that led them to attempt and also review horoscopes in an effort to address a challenge that wasn’t there. (Look, we’re nearing completion of the period and also everybody’s a little hopeless for some in-game exhilaration).

On Wednesday, Bungie transmitted a message throughout the whole game that simply claimed “Telesto” over and also over once more.

This resulted in an additional advancement of the weapon. Gone was the alternating fire setting, however the mines currently take off and also flash little purple rockets — a tool re-work in real-time.
Finally, the authorities Destiny 2 Twitter account was “taken over” by Telesto on Wednesday.

The account started tweeting as Telesto both to its fans and also in reaction to various other brand names like Xbox. The account also altered its account photo and also banner to be Telesto themed. Bungie just claimed it was servicing a repair for the brand-new Telesto “bug.”
Now prior to you obtain also ecstatic and also begin believing the horoscope viewers were on to something, Destiny 2’s Global Community Lead, Cozmo, has confirmed that it’s not some massive puzzle to solve. However, he did stick to the “we are working on a fix” line, so he can be kidding.
All of this appears to be bring about a symbol called Schrodinger’s Gun, which has actually been concealed in the game apply for time.
all I’m stating is that this telesto problem much better offer us this symbol, thinking about Bungie made an alternating shooting setting, results, and also computer animation for the tool pic.twitter.com/Xm8uC5XpSf

While this might not be an exceptionally interesting problem that brings about some brand-new Exotic mission, it’s absolutely an adorable method to involve gamers that have actually been or else looked into for a couple of weeks.
All of this Telesto quirkiness is still taking place since the moment of this writing, and also we’ll upgrade this message if any kind of significant advancements take place.
