Since the launch of Destiny 2 on Steam and with Shadowkeep, PC and Xbox One users have access to one of the best exotic weapons. PlayStation 4 users had been able to use it for quite a while.
This weapon is about: We are talking about the exotic Pulse Rifle Wave Splitter, which was released as exclusive content for the PS4 in September 2018, alongside the Forsaken expansion.
The Wave Splitter has only been available for the PS4 since then, and players on Xbox One and PC could only obtain the rifle by exploiting a bug with the Cross-Save feature.
However, this was quickly stopped by Bungie – a kind of “final troll” before the weapon is now finally available on PC and Xbox One.
Why can everyone now get the Wave Splitter? The reason for the exclusive offer of the Wave Splitter and other Destiny content on PlayStation 4 was a deal between Activision and Sony.
However, since Bungie has completely separated from Activision Blizzard, the deal is no longer binding, and the developers can now make the exclusive content available to all players with the launch of Shadowkeep.
Details about the Wave Splitter
How good is the weapon? The Wave Splitter is one of the best exotic weapons in Destiny 2. It is carried in the energy slot and deals Void damage. The amount of damage the rifle deals changes when firing (Perk: “Harmonic Laser”).
While you hold down the trigger, the Wave Splitter switches between three different strengths. However, if you pick up a Sphere of Light, it reloads instantly and you fire for a while at maximum strength (Perk: “Overcharged Battery”).
Where can the Wave Splitter be effectively used? The Wave Splitter is useful in all areas of the game. PS4 players have already reported that raid bosses in PvE can be melted with it.
The Wave Splitter should also be useful in the Crucible and in Gambit. It serves as an all-around weapon.
How do I get the Wave Splitter? To obtain the Pulse Rifle was at least on the PS4 only through exotic engrams. For PC and Xbox One, at the moment, only the engrams are known as a source for the Wave Splitter.
