Destiny 2 Beyond Light has launched and introduced some new Exotics. We explain here how to acquire the exotic weapon “No Time to Explain” and what it can do.
What is happening in Destiny 2? In Destiny 2, on the evening of November 10, the new expansion Beyond Light and the new Season 12, the Season of the Hunt, have launched.
The new Season along with Beyond Light brings a variety of new content, including fresh Exotics. Some of these can be acquired quite quickly.
In addition to the new exotic shotgun Duality, the iconic pulse rifle “No Time to Explain” is likely to be among the first weapon Exotics players can grab.
How to get the exotic pulse rifle “No Time to Explain” in Beyond Light – Here’s how
Where can you find the weapon? This weapon is available only if you have purchased
- the Digital Deluxe Edition of Beyond Light
- Beyond Light + Season 12
- or the physical “The Stranger” Edition of Beyond Light
.
Here’s how to get it: First, you need to complete the new campaign of Beyond Light. Once that is done, you must speak with the Exo Stranger at the new location Europa. Your location is already known from the campaign and is right by the landing zone in the lowest area “Beyond”. From her, you will receive No Time to Explain along with the Masterwork Catalyst.
Please note: If you have not purchased any of the mentioned editions, this new Exotic will be available only after Season 12 – and only with Beyond Light. How exactly remains to be revealed by Bungie.
What the No Time to Explain can do in Destiny 2
Many will remember this iconic gun from Destiny 2. This is the modified rifle of the Stranger, which now makes its entrance in Destiny 2 with the namesake Exo Stranger. The weapon is named after a famous saying from the Stranger, who had no time to explain why she cannot explain.
This is what makes this new exotic weapon special: The “No Time to Explain” is a pulse rifle for the kinetic slot. It has a rate of fire of 340 and features a 24-round magazine. The weapon fires in bursts of three – and it does so automatically when you hold the trigger.
The exotic perk is called “Rewind Again” and causes precision shots and shots on slowed or frozen enemies by Stasis to return to the magazine. This effect can stack.
Additionally, the weapon also has the special perk “Time Dilation”. At 10 stacks of “Rewind Again” a small portal opens up, allowing the weapon to fire additional bullets from an alternate timeline. Precision hits extend the duration of the portal.
This is what the exotic Masterwork Catalyst does: If you upgrade No Time to Explain to Masterwork, the portal of the Time Dilation perk will fire more frequently.
