The weekly newsletter from Bungie is back after the holiday break, and in this first digest of 2021, players of Destiny 2 are getting a closer look at several adjustments to how players get rewards as well as a few changes to Stasis skills in PvP.
The lion’s share of the post is about rewards, with a variety of weapons and armor items returning for Season 13 in various instances within the Dreaming City and the Moon, two new unique weapon rewards being added to Gambit, Crucible, and strike playlists, and visible rank rewards at each of the three ritual’s vendors arriving in Season 13. Incidentally, these new rank rewards will mean that Tokens will be a thing of the past, so those who are sitting on a bunch of Tokens will want to cash them in before the next season arrives.
Over on the PvP side of things, the devs continue to outline plans to adjust the overpowered nature of Stasis skills with a reduction of Shatter Dive and Whisper of Fissures potency in update 3.0.2, plans to address “other Stasis ability outliers” and lift up other subclasses in the mid-term, and plans to adjust ability to gunplay balance in the near future as well.
