Datamining Reveals New and Returning Exotics for Destiny 2 Forsaken
By Zac Cameron ·
A sneak peak at what weapons and armor we can expect to be chasing when Forsaken drops on September 4th.

The latest expansion to Destiny 2 is almost here, and while some changes are coming a little earlier than others, the main thing everyone is waiting for is new content. Whether it be new missions, or new gear, players have been waiting for new toys to play with, and thanks to some helpful data miners, now we know what we can expect. Here are the Exotic weapons and armor that we’ll be chasing in Destiny 2: Forsaken.
Weapons
Cerberus+1, kinetic auto rifle — “Four-Headed Dog: Shoots erratic bullets from all gun barrels at the same time.”
Wish-Ender, kinetic bow — “Queen’s Wrath: While aiming down sights with a fully-drawn bow, enemies behind walls are highlighted.”
Trinity Ghoul, energy Arc bow — “Split Electron: Fires an arrow that splits when released. Aiming down sights and fully drawing the bow both decrease the spread.”
One Thousand Voices, power Solar fusion rifle — “Ahamkara’s Eye: Charging this weapon unleashes a giant continuous beam of death.”
Malfeasance, kinetic hand cannon — “Explosive Shadow: Shoot tainted slugs that burrow into the enemy. Stacking enough slugs causes them all to explode.”
Ace of Spades*, kinetic hand cannon — “Memento Mori: Reloading after a kill loads magazine with a few extra-damage bullets. Grants radar while aiming down sights.”
The Queenbreaker*, power Arc linear fusion rifle — “Wire Rifle: Fires a long-range precision Arc bolt that blinds enemies on hit.”
Two-Tailed Fox, power Void rocket launcher — “Twintails: Shoots two rockets, one Void and one Solar, that can track onto the same target.”
The Chaperone*, kinetic shotgun — “Precision Slug: Fires a single-slug precision round.”
Lord of Wolves*, energy Solar shotgun — “Shrapnel Launcher: Fires a powerful short-range burst of Solar damage.”
Black Talon, power Void sword — “Crow’s Wings: Press the attack button twice to fire off a projectile cross combo.”
Wavesplitter, energy Void trace rifle — “Harmonic Laser: Laser damage has three power levels that oscillate while the trigger is held down.”
Armor
Hunter
Gwisin Vest, chest armor — “Roving Assassin: Each Spectral Blades kill you make before going into stealth will restore more of your Super energy.”
The Sixth Coyote, chest armor — “Double Dodge: Gain a second dodge charge.”
Oathkeeper, gauntlets — “Adamantine Brace: Bows charge faster, and charges can be held indefinitely.”
Shards of Galanor, gauntlets — “Sharp Edges: Hits and kills with Blade Barrage will return Super energy after the Super ends.”
Titan
Heart of Inmost Light, chest armor — “Overflowing Light: Using a grenade, melee, or Barricade ability empowers you, granting increased damage and resistance. While empowered, the next ability you use has faster regen.”
Ursa Furiosa, gauntlets — “Ursine Guard: Move faster while guarding when Sentinel Shield is active. Guarded damage converts to Super energy when the Super ends.”
One-Eyed Mask, helmet — “Vengeance: Marks the enemy that dares to damage you. Track down and destroy your enemy for increased damage and overshield.”
Antaeus Wards, leg armor — “Reflective Vents: Improved slide. Sliding reflects incoming projectiles. Reflecting projectiles grant Super energy.”
Warlock
Chromatic Fire, chest armor — “Crystalline Transistor: Precision kills with your Kinetic weapon create an explosion in the element of your equipped subclass.”
Phoenix Protocol, chest armor — “Battle-Hearth: Kills and assists you make while standing in your Well of Radiance return Super energy.”
Contraverse Hold, gauntlets — “Chaotic Exchanger: Charging your grenade with Chaos Accelerant, Consume, or Radioactive will give damage resist. Charged grenade hits return a random amount of grenade energy.”
Geomag Stabilizers, leg armor — “Close Enough: When Chaos Reach Super energy is almost full, sprinting tops it off. Damaging enemies with Chaos Reach extends its duration.”
The exact perks for these new weapons and armor aren’t fully known just yet, and there will likely be more weapons and armor to chase when the expansion finally drops. For now, we’ll just have to sit tight and theorize on what gear will be worth pursuing.
