These heavy weapon exotics from Destiny are still missing in Destiny 2
Nova Mortis: This machine gun is essentially the void version of Thunderlord, which came with Rise of Iron.
Abaddon: This solar variant of Thunderlord completes this exotic machine gun series with the third element.
Nemesis Star: A solid exotic machine gun with solar damage, but due to numerous strong alternatives in the exotic slot, it rarely found use.
Extremely Good Advice: A heavy machine gun with solar damage that always lost out to Thunderlord and other exotic weapons (except when facing the Oracles in the Vault of Glass raid).
Destructor: One of the most popular and powerful swords in Destiny. Lord Shaxx had it on his back during the escape from the Tower. Since then, Guardians have speculated that this solar weapon might also return to Destiny 2.
Dark Drinker: The void representative of the popular exotic sword trio. Often used against bosses and majors, especially in combination with the Titan bubble. According to a leak, Dark Drinker is supposed to return in Season 7. However, no sign of this sword is available yet.
Bowcaster: The bowcaster completes the three most popular swords with the arc element. Its homing projectiles can be found today in a slightly modified form in the exotic sword Black Spindle.
The Howl of the Wolf: Another exotic solar sword that never really managed to compete with the other three.
Dragon’s Breath: A solar rocket launcher that was more of a fun weapon in Destiny 1 and not a serious alternative for the coveted exotic slot. It might return under some circumstances. According to datamining, a rocket launcher could come in the context of a solar week. Fans speculate about the return of Dragon’s Breath or Gjallarhorn.
Gjallarhorn: This rocket launcher is probably the most popular, best-known, and possibly once the most powerful weapon exotic from Destiny 1. Before the nerf, Gjallarhorn was the solution to almost all problems and the answer to virtually every enemy in the game.
Since the launch of Destiny 2, fans have been speculating about the return of this iconic weapon almost every season. It hasn’t happened yet, but many believe it’s only a matter of time before Bungie introduces this exotic to Destiny 2 – possibly during a solar week.
As you can see, there are still quite a few exotic weapons that Bungie could bring back from Destiny 1, and some of them will definitely do so.
Are you about to burst if you hear about just one more returnee? Or would you still like to see one or the other exotic firearm like Touch of Malice, Vex Mythoclast, or Necrochasm from part 1 return? Which weapon would you prefer?
