Destiny 2- The Final Shape Will Make One Of The Most Impactful Balance Changes In Years

The Final Shape is bringing a whole lot of adjustments to Destiny 2 when it drops on June 4–so many, in fact, that Bungie is detailing them over thousands of words and multiple blog posts. One of the biggest is an overhaul of the Well of Radiance super ability for Warlocks: one that players have relied on in Destiny 2’s toughest content for years on end.

It’s certainly changed a lot from this same time last year. Scuffed paint, plasma burns, and a layer of dust and dirt coat the Chief’s new suit, seeming to imply that the character has seen plenty of fighting between the events of Halo 5: Guardians and Halo Infinite. Check it out below.

Those armor details weren’t present in Halo Infinite’s…
