Destiny 2’s new exotic boots are too powerful, so Bungie nervously has them

Earlier this week, Destiny 2The season of the lost has begun, bringing with it new missions, scenarios, and exotic gear. A particular piece of exotic gear, some fancy novelties boots For Hunters, quickly became popular (and hated) because they allowed the players to lead the way Destiny 2 plays in PVP. Now, Bungie has nerfed the boots, leaving hunters who love to dance quite sad.

The exotic boots in question are the Radiant dancing machines, first appeared in destiny, but have now reappeared in Destiny 2 alongside the new season. Originally, in the first game, these exotic boots increased your movement speed while aiming down. In Destiny 2, these hunters boots now aallows you to use your ability to dodge several times in a row for a short time as long as you are close to an enemy. This led to some problems.

As explained by Games pot‘s Phil hornshaw, these boots can be paired with additional items that add new traits to your dodge ability. The right combos could lead the way Destiny 2 rooms. An example given is that of people using the Dynamo mod for Void based headsets. This module gives players shigher energy whenever they use dodge and can also be stacked. With the right construction and a little practice, players could easily fill their super bars in no time of time.

As might be expected, this was quickly exploited by destiny to players, leading to complaints that the exotic was broken and overpowered. So last night, apparently in response on this return, Bungie temporarily disabled new starts in PVP and Gambit modes. Like this town of Free of any tie, Bungie said more dancing! Stop dancing! STOP THAT! (You can still use the boots outside of these modes.)

Bungie Community Managers and Destiny 2 players had fun on Twitter after the announcement of the Hunters dance ban. Although some have also wondered why these boots are delivered in the game like this. To be clear: players don’t use glitch to get all of those super powerful dodging and abilities. They just use the Radiant Dance Machines as intended, letting them dodge more and making their dodge tied. more effective traits In the process. This appears to be an issue Bungie isn’t expecting destiny players to take advantage of powerful new equipment.

But whatever, let’s go don’t worry about it and listen instead the song “Safety dance “ which is kind of related to this story and is now stuck in my head.

“We can dance if you want, we can leave your friends behind …”
