Some Destiny 2 players did find an easier way to get Exotic items in the Destiny 2 Witch Queen expansion through farming Lost Sectors. With it being a couple of months since the release of the Witch Queen as well, many Destiny 2 players now have the rare items that they want either through farming tricks or the usual methods. However, according to a new “This Week at Bungie” blog post, fans may be getting a new Exotic piece of gear soon.

Destiny 2 players on Reddit believe that an Exotic armor piece relating to Fusion Rifles will be coming soon due to a note in Bungie’s recent blog post. Among the lengthy update, fans picked out a piece of information hidden in the discussion around the new Airborne effectiveness weapon stat. Airborne effectiveness is intended to change the way primary guns work while a player is in the air, giving players less aim assist, so they have to rely on more of their own skill when taking down enemies while gliding. The post then went on to explain how Exotic armor affects Airborne effectiveness too, and an unnamed piece of armor was said to give +30 to Fusion Rifles and Linear Fusion Rifles while airborne.

Destiny 2 fans have taken this to mean that a new piece of Exotic armor will likely be coming soon and that it will boost the stats of Fusion Rifles. Fusion Rifles are Destiny 2’s way of throwing out traditional bullets and allowing fans to kill their enemies with pure energy. After a short wind-up time, they fire a burst of projectiles at foes. While there are plenty of Fusion Rifles in Destiny 2, they don’t see much play in PvE or PvP.

Hopefully, this new Exotic armor piece could change that. While nothing has been officially confirmed as yet, Bungie does love to tease Destiny fans in their blog posts, often alluding to future content and rewarding those who really dig deep into the text of the update. In the past, “This Week at Bungie” posts have given out details on content for upcoming expansions and shown off gameplay changes like the Elemental updates to Destiny 2.

Destiny 2 is now available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
