Leaked Destiny 2 Exotics, Xur, Max Light & More!

This article contains major spoilers

/u/supadhalster was able to acquire screenshots of Destiny 2’s game guide, so we now know a bit more about what Exotics we’ll be getting, Xur’s locations, and information about a new Tower!

Exotics

Note: This list doesn’t include Raid Exotics or the PS exclusive sniper rifle.

Weapons

Hard Light – The intrinsic perk is the same: Rounds fired from this weapon have no damage falloff, overpenetrate targets and ricochet off hard surfaces. But now you’ll be able to change its damage type freely from Arc/Solar/Void.

The Wardcliff Coil – AKA Dubious Volley, this rocket launcher will automatically reload upon ammo pickup. It will fire a volley of Arc damage rockets.

Vigilance Wing – This Kinetic pulse rifle fires 5-round bursts. When a nearby ally is killed, you’ll gain increased health regeneration and movement speed. In addition, you’ll get “improved weapon performance” when its wielder is the last living member of a fireteam.

Sturm – Kills with this Kinetic hand cannon fill the magazine up of the equipped Energy weapon from reserves. Kills with Drang grant bonus precision damage until the next reload. Strum grants additional benefits when the Legendary sidearm “Drang” is equipped in your Energy slot.

Tractor Cannon – This Void shotgun fires a powerful impulse to push enemies away. Damaging an opponent will temporarily increase speed and handling.

Coldheart – This weapon shoots a steady cold-fusion powered Arc laser, which does exponentially more damage the longer it remains on a target.

Fighting Lion – A Void grenade launcher whose projectiles will bounce off surfaces. Hold to fire, release to detonate. Direct hits with this weapon do more damage to shielded enemies. Rapid kills against grenade-damaged enemies will refill the magazine.

Graviton Lance – The third shot of this Void pulse rifle does high damage with no fall-off. Kills with this weapon cause enemy targets to explode.

Skyburner’s Oath – This Solar scout rifle fires slugs that get stronger when aiming down sights. This weapon is Full Auto, does extra damage to Cabal, and penetrates Phalanx shields.

D.A.R.C.I. – An Arc sniper rifle that allows you to view an enemy’s health & other critical information on the scope when aiming. When ADS on an enemy, this weapon has better target acquisition and deals more precision damage.

Merciless – Nonlethal projectile hits with this Solar fusion rifle makes the weapon charge faster until its wielder gets a kill. Reloading immediately after a kill increases weapon damage for a short time.

Legend of Acrius – This shotgun fires a blast of high-damage Arc energy that overpenetrates enemies. It also allows you to detect enemies on your radar from further away.

The Prospector – This Arc grenade launcher has a full auto trigger system. Holding down the trigger will fire the weapon in full auto. Hold [Fire] to fire grenades – release to detonate all live grenades simultaneously.

MIDA Multi-Tool – This Kinetic scout rifle boosts movement speed. Radar stays active while aiming down sights. Additional benefits will be granted when the Legendary Submachine Gun “MIDA Mini-Tool” is equipped in your Energy slot.

Rat King – This Kinetic sidearm becomes stronger when nearby fireteam members also have it equipped (stacks up to 6 times). Reloading immediately after a kill grants a brief period of invisibility.

Dismantling an Exotic will provide “Experimental Parts” – not sure what that’s for.
