Destiny 2 players outraged over Beyond Light\u2019s \u201cweak\u201d new Raid Exotic BungieDestiny 2 players love powerful gear, and with several new exotic weapons released in Beyond Light there are plenty of exciting items to acquire. However, one new weapon \u2013 exotic rocket launcher Eyes of Tomorrow \u2013 is severely underperforming, and fans aren\u2019t happy. In any Destiny 2 expansion, the main attraction for most players is new gear. In Beyond Light, there have been plenty of new weapons and armor pieces to chase despite a portion of the game\u2019s older inventory being sunset. The new expansion introduced several exotics, including the rocket launcher Eyes of Tomorrow. The weapon\u2019s unique perks allow it to fire rockets at multiple targets, and increase the weapon\u2019s damage if enough enemies are eliminated in a single volley. Unlocked by the first completion of the Deep Stone Crypt raid, Guardians have gotten their hands on the weapon and tested it out themselves. After spending some time with the rocket launcher, the community discovered the weapon is not as powerful as they originally believed. Eyes of Tomorrow underwhelms In separate Reddit posts \u2013 one on r\/DestinyTheGame and the other on r\/RaidSecrets \u2013 players have identified at least two areas where Eyes of Tomorrow is severely underperforming. In the first post, \u2018u\/out_of_phase44\u2019 describes how after receiving the rocket launcher and feeling it was underpowered, they took it into several activities to perform some testing. After testing, they noticed the launcher \u201cseems to have an arbitrary ~50% damage reduction against raid bosses.\u201d By comparing the launcher\u2019s DPS against One Thousand Voices \u2013 an exotic introduced in Forsaken\u2019s Last Wish raid \u2013 they discovered the new launcher is extremely underpowered compared to its counterpart. In the second post, user \u2018u\/KuaiBan\u2019 had a similar feeling about Eyes of Tomorrow after acquiring it, and decided to do some testing in Lost Sectors and Master Nightfalls. They tested the launcher against another exotic \u2013 the Xenophage machine gun \u2013 and had similar findings. u\/KuaiBan discovered the exotic is also experiencing reduced damage within the game\u2019s Nightfalls, saying \u201cAfter the tests, I have to conclude that Eyes of Tomorrow is acting weird in Master Nightfalls, dealing massively reduced damage for some reason.\u201d They went on to say that after some additional testing, Eyes of Tomorrow is being outperformed by several legendary rocket launchers as well. Both users concluded that the new exotic is badly outclassed by both equal and lesser-quality gear in Raid and Nightfall activities. Bug or intended behavior? At the time of writing, Bungie has not officially responded to either Reddit thread. Players have yet to receive confirmation that the reduced damage output is intended or simply a bug that needs to be fixed. Regardless of the root cause, the Destiny 2 community voiced their frustration loudly in the comments sections of both posts.

Destiny 2 players will need to wait for an response from Bungie on whether Eyes of Tomorrow is bugged or functioning as intended. Guardians should keep an eye on Bungie social media and the two Reddit threads for updates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
