Whenever a new season comes around, one of the first things on everyone’s mind in Destiny 2 is what are all of the new exotics that are being added to the game. Season 18, Season of Plunder, is no different, as Guardians are curious as to if they should abandon their old favorite weapons in favor of something shiny and new. Here is everything you need to know about what has been added.
New Exotic Weapons in Destiny 2 Season of Plunder
While Destiny 2 Season of Plunder is a bit light on new weapons, Auto Rifle and Fusion Rifle players will still be excited, as they’ll get the opportunity to get their hands on one of each in the newest installment. You can check them both out below:
Quicksilver Storm (Kinetic Exotic Auto Rifle)
- Rocket Tracers – Landing multiple hits turns your next shot into a homing micro-rocket.
- Grenade Chaser – Landing multiple rockets loads a grenade. Alternate Weapon Action to switch into Grenade Launcher mode.
Delicate Tomb (Energy Exotic Fusion Rifle)
- Traitor’s Vessel – Fires a wide horizontal spread when shot from the hip. Final blows with this weapon have a chance to generate Ionic Traces. Powerful foes and opposing Guardians always generate Ionic Traces.
- Tempest Cascade – Collecting an Ionic Trace overcharges this weapon’s next shot, jolting targets on hit.
New Exotic Armor in Destiny 2 Season of Plunder
Destiny 2 Season of Plunder also introduces one new exotic armor item for each class, making it so that Titans, Warlocks, and Hunters all have the opportunity to try out some new outfits and perks.
- Point-Contact Cannon Brace (Titan) – Defeating targets with your Thunderclap melee restores melee energy. Targets near you when you use your Thunderclap suffer lightning strikes; being amplified increases the range of these lightning strikes.
- Fallen Sunstar (Warlock) – Ionic traces you create move faster and grant you additional ability energy. Nearby allies also gain ability energy when you collect an ionic trace.
- Gyrfalcon’s Hauberk (Hunter) – Your weapons gain a bonus to damage briefly after you emerge from being invisible. When you are invisible and defeat a combatant using a finisher, you and your nearby allies gain a reserve overshield and improved class ability regen. These reserve overshields can be deployed by using a class ability.
