Although it has the potential to get some flashy multi kills, enemies in the Crucible don’t line up and funnel through frequently enough to warrant its use. This modifier is better used for cleaning up groups of ads in

Were High-Impact Snipers Nerfed the Wrong Way?

Analysis Leave a comment

This is what Bungie had to say on the positives of the high-impact sniper rifle archetype: Decent magazine sizes combined with strong impact Strong target acquisition and when combined with Hidden Hand can reach the upper echelon normally reserved for lower impact Sniper Rifles Ability to take down a guardian while in their super state High body-shot damage with a rate of fire still fast enough that the two tap body-shot is still viable Now, I fully agree the 1000YS archetype was too good.

Has Bungie started an alternate reality game for Rise of Iron? Looks like it! New character boosters have appeared in Destiny following maintenance earlier today, seemingly out of nowhere. Splendor 2.6 was first reported by Twitch streamer Mr_Amplified. What’s more mysterious, streamer SayNoToRage received a message in his chat at the same time the buff appeared. The message from owl_sector stated “We’ve detected an unidentified foreign intrusion into your systems, Guardian. Stay calm. We will investigate.” The effect’s description reads: “[Booster Name] has been transmitted to you. Increased XP and reputation gains for the duration of transmission.” The effect also applies a
