Aside from the additional stories and weapons from Destiny 2 Lightfall, Bungie has been announcing many sandbox updates for February 28, 2023. These changes are being made to shift the meta between multiple weapon archetypes and armor pieces.

A recent blog post from the company revealed some additional details on the changes. The highlights include changes to specific Exotic weapons, weapon archetypes, and perks.

This article lists all the changes that will be made to the weapons, as players will be able to see them in a different light starting next season.

Evevy announced change for Exotic weapons in Destiny 2 Lightfall (2023)

1) The Queenbreaker

Bungie felt The Queenbreaker's blinding effect was quite underwhelming, even after being unaffected by the global Linear Fusion Rifle nerf. Hence, the company will be changing each shot where they will chain nearby enemies and use the Arc 3.0 build.

2) Ruinous Effigy

The Void Trace Rifle from Season of the Arrivals will also be undergoing some adjustments, where its uniqueness is to create Transmutation Spheres to vaporize waves of adds (additional enemies).

However, the changes that will be implemented with Lightfall will include a "Suppressing" buff on the Transmutation Spheres.

3) Leviathan's Breath

The Leviathan's Breath Heavy Bow has been under the radar for too long since it was put within the game for anti-Champion purposes.

Hence, Bungie will be buffing it up even more by giving it Volatile Rounds with fully drawn shots, increased damage against Champions by 30%, and increased damage to help supers one-shot in PvP.

4) One Thousand Voices

Since its increased usage rate in Season 15, the Heavy Fusion Rifle hasn't proven to be quite as valuable in any content.

However, with Lightfall, Bungie will be adding a guaranteed ignite method if players can fire an entire burst of the weapon on an enemy. The solar aspect, Ember of Ashes, will need to be equipped.

5) Sunshot

Sunshot has always been a top contender to inherit buffs from Solar 3.0. Since explosions always provide a clear view for players, explosions upon killing enemies will apply 10+5 scorch to nearby enemies.

6) Two-Tailed Fox

While Two-Tailed Fox isn't the most-used weapon in the game, it is the only one that can apply multiple buffs from different elements. Hence, changes in Lightfall will include a Scorch of 60+30 from the Solar Rocket while getting suppression buffs from the Void projectile.

7) Prometheus Lens

The renowned Solar Trace Rifle is beloved among many players in the game. However, its catalyst will be adding the Incandescent perk to the weapon, giving everyone even more reason to use the weapon in both PvP and PvE.

8) Grand Overture

Grand Overture is one of the newest weapons in the game, which got a damage buff against combatants by 50%. However, Bungie will add the Arc Blind buff alongside its catalyst from Lightfall.
