The next Destiny 2 update will make it easier to obtain new alien species

In Destiny 2, nothing better than to see an exotic yellow engram fall after blowing up a giant alien monster. However, this excitement is often immediately canceled, as there is no guarantee that the weapon or exotic armor resulting from this engram will be something that players do not already have. Let's hope these days of overwhelming engram deception are about to end, thanks to the upcoming Destiny 2 update.

Bungie's preliminary release notes for its next update describe a slew of improvements to the quality of life coming up in Destiny 2. Although some interesting changes are made to the update, the one that will matter the most in the eyes of the players affect the decline. exotic duplicate rates. Bungie changes the way Destiny 2 creates random drops, increases the chances that players get an exotic that they do not already have, and changes the odds for the duplicates they will receive, if any.

First, the update changes the way exotics are "weighted" when the Destiny 2 RNG determines the type of Exotic that falls into an engram. Exotic weapons and armor that you do not already have are heavier than the exotic weapons you have. Bungie also eliminates exotic species gained by completing quests, such as Malfeasance and Ace of Spades, from the pool of possible random alien drops, which should further reduce the chances of getting something you already have in your inventory .

The changes will not totally eliminate the possibility of duplicates, but Bungie also adapts debits so that when you end up with an exotic that you already own, it's a little less embarrassing. In case of duplicate fall, the odds of getting exotic armor will be higher than obtaining an exotic weapon. That's because exotic weapons have advantages, but the benefits of armor are random – so even if you end up with a fall of exotic armor that you already have, there is a chance to make it better than what you already wear.

The 2.0.5 update should bring more changes in the quality of life and you can learn more about it on Bungie's blog. The update is about to disappear with the weekly update of Destiny 2, scheduled for 9:00 am MST / noon ET on Tuesday, October 30th.
