Like a scampish nephew in a Christmas romantic comedy who retains popping up pulling pranks on his career-obsessed spinster aunt to remind her that possibly she does need a household and kids of her personal in spite of everything, Destiny 2 gun Telesto has as soon as once more developed a bug making it ha-ha-hilariously overpowered. Telesto fires a sprig of sticky proximity mines as an alternative of power zaps, see, and people have prompted all kinds of issues through the years by one thing deep within the gameguts treating mines as enemies. The newest prank lets gamers use Telesto mines to generate infinite Special ammo.
The newest Telesto prank is related to Heavy Handed, an armour mod accessible by a Sundial Obelisk which, when you’ve one other Arc mod outfitted, provides the power: “When surrounded by multiple enemies, defeating an enemy with a Fusion Rifle, Shotgun, Sidearm, or Submachine Gun adds ammo for that weapon to your reserves.” People conversant in previous Telesto japes could have already guessed what’s occurring: as soon as once more, Telesto mines are being registered as enemies. You can shoot a sprig of six mines for one Special ammo then shoot these with one other gun to get six Special again. It’s a Christmas miracle.
Oh Telesto you rogue, you actually are the besto.
“Telesto… Telesto never changes,” a Bungie neighborhood supervisor responded on Reddit. “We’re investigating.”
I like that Bungie are so dedicated to a gun which has prompted so many issues. Last season, Telesto may mix with a distinct armour mod to totally cost your Super capability within seconds relatively than minutes. Before that, gamers may fireplace Telesto mines over the end line of The Menagerie’s Gauntlet run to rely as extra gamers ending. Before that, within the Blind Well you may blow up Telesto mines to rely as enemies and velocity by sections. Bungie repair these issues as they pop up, generally disabling Telesto for some time if it’s a critical stability downside just like the superfast Supers, nevertheless it retains coming again. And then it develops one other bizarre exploit and… spherical and spherical we go.
Telesto might not be the PvP monster it as soon as was however I do have a comfortable spot for it. It’s simply enjoyable to fireplace a diffusion of crackling proxy mines, okay. And it’s enjoyable to cowl a teammate in glowing orbs. And particularly enjoyable when run into enemies to detonate the mines and get kills for you.
