Destiny The Dawning: All New Exotic Weapons

Destiny The Dawning New Exotic: Year Three Icebreaker

Destiny’s The Dawning update has introduced three interesting new exotics to the fold as Destiny moves into 2017 (ever closer to the looming sequel). The first weapon sure to catch everyone’s eyes is the Icebreaker, which takes on a new white appearance and has been upgraded to Year Three level Light. It’s just as powerful and useful as you remember.

Check out the long-lost weapon’s perks:

Perk 1 (Automatic)

No Backpack – Cannot be reloaded, but regenerates ammo over time.

Perk 2 (3 Options)

Accurized Ballistics – More range and impact, but increased recoil.

Field Choke – More range and impact, but increased recoil.

Linear Compensator – More predictable recoil as well as slight boosts to range and impact. Recoil is also increased.

Perk 3 (1 Option)

Mulligan – Missing a shot has a chance to return ammo directly to the magazine.

Perk 4 (3 Options) 

Quickdraw – This weapon can be drawn unbelievably fast.

Lightweight – When held, this weapon grants +2 character agility.

Snapshot – Aiming this weapon is incredibly fast.

Perk 5 (1 Option)

Ice Breaker – Ice Breaker’s victims spontaneously combust, dealing damage to others nearby. 

Destiny The Dawning New Exotic: Nova Mortis

The Nova Mortis might look pretty familiar, as if you’ve seen it somewhere in Destiny already. And that’s because you have… sort of. The Nova Mortis is actually the Void version of the Thunderlord, a vanilla Destiny exotic weapon that was among the first ever revealed for the game. Aside from the fact that this new one does Void damage, it is exactly the same as its Arc brethren, and available now in The Dawning.

Check out the Nova Mortis perks below:

Perk 1 (Automatic)

Perk 2 (3 Options)

Accurized Ballistics – More range and impact, but increased recoil.

Field Choke – More range and impact, but increased recoil.

Flared Magwell – Reload this weapon even faster.

Perk 5 (1 Option)

Negative Rounds – This weapon fires faster and more accurately the longer the trigger is held. 

Destiny The Dawning New Exotic: Abbadon (Solarlord)

Didn’t we just see this gun in purple a moment ago? Of course, Bungie couldn’t create a Void version of the Thunderlord without also creating a Solar version for The Dawning. The Abbadon joins the Thunderlord and Nova Mortis to deliver heavy Solar damage in a rapid fire mode. It shares all the same perks as its Void and Arc counterparts, allowing you to be prepared for any occasion amidst the Destiny action.

Check out the perks:

Perk 1 (Automatic)
