Bungie has been fairly open these past few weeks when talking about the upcoming Destiny 2: Shadowkeep expansion. Fans got a long look behind the curtain thanks to director Luke Smith's three lengthy blog posts, new trailers appeared at GamesCom 2019, and this past week saw a new blog post talking about how seasons will work going forward. With PAX West in full swing this weekend, even more Shadowkeep information has appeared online.
The latest leak comes from a screenshot taken right from the PAX West build of Destiny 2: Shadowkeep. The screenshot posted on Reddit shows off a new Warlock exotic called Stormdancer's Brace, chest armor intended for the Stormcaller subclass. The exotic perk is called Ascending Amplitude which increases the damage dealt with Stormtrance for every enemy that is killed during the super duration.
Fans have already begun wondering how much of a damage increase the exotic provides as it could be a welcomed alternative to the Crown of Tempests, currently the only Stormtrance specific exotic. Unlike this newly leaked exotic, Crown of Tempests essentially increases the duration of the super move, fixing a common complaint from the community regarding what many see as a very short super ability without the exotic helmet.
PAX West has been full of Destiny 2 details already, with even more exotic items leaking out a bit earlier than intended. One of the more interesting ones is called Divinity, a trace rifle that first drops as a legendary version from the new Vex Offensive encounter. It has a low Impact score that is made up by its other stats, however.
From there, players can evolve the weapon by making it exotic through completing raid challenges. Its intrinsic perk is called Judgement, which causes sustained damage to envelop the target in a field that weakens and disrupts them. With max stability and a 194-round magazine that can fire 1000 rounds per minute, this could be a very popular weapon once found.
Destiny 2: Shadowkeep releases October 1, 2019 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
