Every weapon that is getting removed from Destiny 2 Episode Heresy loot pool

The dawn of a fresh episodic entry in Destiny 2 means that players will be getting new weapons at the cost of a few older ones. Some of these weapons are being put into a rotation, where they pave the way for newer gear pieces to enter the loot pool.

Removed weapons cannot be farmed for a long time in any way, making it crucial to know which specific gear pieces are being replaced. This article lists every weapon getting removed with the arrival of Episode Heresy, alongside the ones being added as well.
