Destiny 2 is bringing back weapons that were so powerful they made sunsetting happen BungieSome of Destiny 2\u2019s most infamous weapons are returning in the Into the Light update. Now, players will be able to recreate the most powerful loadout the game has ever seen. As part of Destiny 2: Into the Light, a free update bringing a Hoard mode among other features, Bungie fully revealed the weapons that are coming back with it in a livestream yesterday. All of the guns making a comeback are from Destiny 2\u2019s past and are among the most infamous ever. The Recluse SMG and Mountaintop Grenade Launcher are returning with the update. Both guns were once part of Destiny 2\u2019s best ever loadout. Around Season of Oppulance, the Mountaintop, Recluse, and Anarchy took over the game in a way never seen since. Thanks to Mountaintop\u2019s excellent special damage, Anarchy\u2019s damage over time, and the Recluse\u2019s all-purpose nature, the loadout reigned supreme against the likes of Crown of Sorrow\u2019s boss Gahlran \u2013 and far into the future. It got so bad, that it forced Bungie to instill sunsetting into Beyond Light, making many previous weapons redundant. This ended up being one of the most unpopular moves in Destiny 2\u2019s history, effectively making many player\u2019s arsenals close to useless. However, Bungie is opening Pandora\u2019s box once again, by putting the guns in players\u2019 hands again. Of course, they are seeing some work to make sure they don\u2019t take over the meta again. In the livestream, Bungie revealed that Recluse\u2019s Master of Arms perk has been reigned in. On top of that, Mountaintop won\u2019t be able to one-shot players in PvP. In any case, it\u2019s unlikely these guns would truly take over the meta in the same way they once did. The Destiny 2 sandbox has changed so immensely since then, as now we have a stronger build focus and a deep, deep arsenal of weapons for every occasion. Still, it will be fun to have our hands back on two of the most infamous weapons in Destiny 2\u2019s history. Destiny 2 In the Light is set to launch on April 9.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
