In a new trailer, Bungie has teased some exotic weapons and armor pieces from the Forsaken expansion for Destiny 2. Guardians can look forward to these 11 Exotics starting in September.
On September 4th, the Forsaken expansion kicks off the second year of Destiny 2. The autumn add-on brings numerous long-awaited features and new loot. Bungie has showcased some exotic examples in a short teaser trailer. These 11 Exotics are already confirmed to be included in Forsaken.
These new exotic weapons come with Forsaken
In the trailer, the studio presented these 7 weapons in detail:
Ace of Spades:
The Ace of Spades is the famous hand cannon of Cayde-6. Although Cayde dies in the Forsaken expansion from his own weapon, it seems that Guardians will recover it from his murderer, Prince Uldren, during the storyline.
Reloading after a kill grants the Ace of Spades bullets with extra damage.
Black Talon:
The Black Talon is an exotic sword and its mechanics resemble those of the Bolt-Caster from Destiny 1. The Black Talon can be used not only for melee combat but also fires energy projectiles that can hit distant opponents.
Malfeasance:
Many Guardians thought the Malfeasance might be the return of the Thorn in Destiny 2. However, this is apparently not the case – at least not in its original form. The weapon also fires Thorn-like projectiles, but the poisoning effect is missing. Instead, there is a powerful explosion with every fifth shot.
One Thousand Voices:
This is likely a new fusion rifle in the Hive design. The weapon fires a concentrated beam of fire that explodes on surfaces.
Trinity Ghoul:
Trinity Ghoul is an exotic bow that generates electric storm arrows after precision kills. Bows are a completely new weapon class that will be introduced into Destiny 2 with the Forsaken expansion.
Two-Tailed Fox:
This is a new rocket launcher that can simultaneously fire two seemingly homing rockets. The rockets apparently deal different elemental damage. The design resembles that of the scout rifle Jade Rabbit.
Wish-Ender:
The Wish-Ender is an exotic bow that, when using the aiming device, can detect enemies through walls within a limited field of view. Its arrows can penetrate enemies and hit additional foes behind them.
Cerberus+1:
The Cerberus+1 is an exotic auto rifle from Forsaken. A detailed presentation of this weapon can be found here: Destiny 2: Are we expecting the best auto rifle of all time with Forsaken?
These weapons were also shown
This shotgun was not presented but based on appearance, it is likely to be exotic as well.
This briefly shown auto rifle of the Titan also seems to be an exotic weapon.
These new exotic armor pieces come with Forsaken
Additionally, three new armor Exotics were presented:
Antaeus Wards:
This exotic Titan leg armor gives its wearer the ability to reflect incoming projectiles – even rockets.
Chromatic Fire:
This exotic chest armor of the Warlocks enriches its wearer with elemental explosions after precision kills with kinetic weapons.
The Sixth Coyote:
This is a new exotic chest armor for Hunters. The Exotic allows the wearer to use the dodge roll twice.
These armor pieces were also shown
This Warlock leg armor was briefly shown, but its Arc discharge suggests it is likely an Exotic.
This helmet has been seen multiple times in Forsaken footage. It is also likely an Exotic.
