Parasite is definitely at the top of the more grotesque weapons available, and its importance within the game's lore makes it one of the worthwhile Exotic weapons to acquire in Destiny 2. The Witch Queen expansion has introduced some of the most unique Exotic weapons that Destiny 2 has ever seen. The Menagerie activity in Destiny 2 was great for choosing a masterwork on a particular gun, and it looks like players are going to be able to choose a whole lot more in The Witch Queen.ĭestiny 2: The Witch Queen debuts on Xbox, PlayStation, PC, and Stadia on February 22nd.One of the most fascinating Exotic weapons that players can get in Destiny 2 is the Parasite Grenade Launcher, a Solar energy Power weapon that actually fires Hive worms as its ammunition. Image: Bungieĭestiny 2: The Witch Queen will also include weapon crafting, and Bungie teases the Mars location for how players will be able to create their own weapon rolls. Bungie demonstrates all three new exotic armor pieces in Destiny 2’s PvP mode. Given how annoying coldsnap grenades were in PvP when they first debuted in Destiny 2: Beyond Light, the warlock gloves are worrying! Hunters will also get a Blight Ranger helmet to pair with the arc subclass and reflect projectiles with increased damage. Warlocks get Osmiomancy gloves, which provide an additional coldsnap with enhanced seeking.

The Hoarfrost-Z chest for titans will replace a barricade with a giant stasis wall, making it the perfect exotic armor piece to pair with the stasis subclass. Finally, jumpy hunters get an arc burst of chain lightning that tracks enemies in true hunter-style.īungie is also teasing some new exotic armor.

Space magic warlocks can deploy healing turrets with their Glaive, which will complement the healing aspects of the solar subclass for warlocks. The titan class gets the ability to spawn a protective shield around fellow guardians, similar to the void bubble super mechanic. It has swarming projectiles that trigger a toxic burst that looks a lot like the Thorn hand cannon that exists in Destiny 2 today.Īlongside the exotic weapons, we also get a closer look at the new Glaive weapons that will appear in The Witch Queen. If you remember the Recluse, this looks like a spiritual successor. Last in the trio is the Osteo Striga, which appears to be an exotic submachine gun. If you thought Witherhoard was annoying in player-vs-player (PvP), the Parasite will surely live up to its name. The brief spot in the trailer shows a worm flying through the air, much like watching a Witherhoard flying towards you before you evaporate near-instantly in Destiny 2’s Crucible mode.

Where things really start to get interesting is the new Parasite weapon: it literally launches worms with increasing damage. It appears to be similar to what the Scorn enemies use in Destiny 2 and will act like a machine gun with explosive projectiles (think Wardcliff) to wipe out hoards of Hive.
