The grenade launcher Edge Transit drops in Destiny 2 so frequently that it has become a running gag. Bungie has noticed this and promises a fix.
The problem with Edge Transit: This new grenade launcher has an excessively high drop rate. Just a few days after the launch of the Forsaken expansion, players noticed that they are inundated with Edge Transit. Other power weapons, on the other hand, drop much less frequently.
How the community reacts: Initially annoyed, then with humor. After several complaint threads in the reddit forum dealt with the drop rate of Edge Transit, players began to take the whole thing humorously. They created funny images or provided amusing gameplay suggestions, like a powerful weapon that uses “Edge Transit grenade launcher” as ammunition.
We recently discussed this topic in detail: The most common weapon in Destiny 2 is just too damn common.
Bungie: Edge Transit drops more frequently than intended
This is what Bungie says: Since the Forsaken launch, they have received player feedback that the drop rate of this grenade launcher is too aggressive.
Investigations have now confirmed that Edge Transit drops more frequently than intended. There is indeed a problem. Bungie is now working on a fix for the aggressive drop rate that will appear in a future update.
When the fix will be released is still unknown. It also remains to be seen how much the drop rate will be reduced. Until then, the community can continue to create creative and funny memes about this intrusive weapon.
What about the powerful gear? Yesterday we reported that there was recently a problem with the powerful gear. This sometimes delivers items with too low power levels. For Bungie, this is a high-priority issue.
Bungie now reports that the problem has been identified and will be addressed in a future update. Possibly simultaneously with the drop rate problem of Edge Transit.
