Bungie just revealed Echoes Act 2... this could BREAK Destiny 2...

what is up guys it's your boy siik cacus and today having a kid is like living with a biohazard weapon we are going to be talking about the brand new Bungie live stream that is just concluded and is previewing act two of episode 1 Echo and guys oh my goodness we have some incredibly juicy new weapons artifact perks and some Buffs and Nerfs that you absolutely want to know about and so let's get started started now right off the bat uh Bungie announced something very interesting that's happening with the launch of Act 2 which remember is going to be next Tuesday July 16th they said that the story beats are all going to be released and I believe they said this for Act 2 and three at once so no more weekly story quests in Act 2 Guys you're going to be able to pound through all of the different story quests if you want to in one single day and they say they're just trying this as an experiment people have been asking for them to do this for a long time so if you want to space out those quests you know weekly you can but again if you want to binge them you can as well so very interesting change there and moving on from there we also saw a bunch of gameplay from the new activity arriving in Act 2 which is called Battleground delve and I apologize for the first little bit of G gameplay there's going to be the twitch emotes spammed everywhere with celebrations once people figured out they could do this obviously everyone was spamming these non-stop but I quickly figured out how to turn them off so the rest of the gameplay later on will not have these uh but this is kind of interesting because how Bungie described it like the first few activities in episode one Echo are going to be kind of discovering what's going on on nessus now this is going to be making your way to the center of nessus and you will see in the background gameplay you kind of start out in the same area you had the final uh Story Mission for act one in but you're going to dive deeper and deeper and eventually you're going to go past where that story Mission ended and go even further into nessus and then they said there's going to be another one of these Battleground delve missions launching with the start of act two and that's going to take place from where this Mission ends and then you're going to go even deeper into the very Center of nessus and then there's going to be a third delve Battleground activity arriving in week two one week after the launch of act two so it does look pretty cool it's another three player activity they actually did say that the bosses you fight at the end of these activities are going to be very different from the usual bosses where it's you know three different Health Gates where you do damage do some sort of objective do damage again do the objective they said that there's going to be potentially with one boss like no immunity phase at all they said that he has the biggest Health pool ever put on a boss that was said I don't know whether it was kind of ingest but definitely going to be interesting to see uh what these bosses end up being now you've probably noticed within this game play a brand new weapon being used it's going to be the new solar rocket sidearm now they show it off right here and guys this is going to be a big deal and this is where we transition into the new loot showed off within this live stream so this as you can see can get the rooll of heel clip in the left plus incandescent I mean the call is obviously goated the indebted kindness is amazing now you're telling me I can get a rocket sidearm with a heel clip plus incandescent or another damage increasing perk yeah this could end up being the new most used weapon in the entire game it's going to be craftable again like it is going to be nutty now after that they actually showed off another new weapon arriving in act two and that is going to be this heavy burst pulse rifle and interestingly as you can see it can actually get high impact reserves in the left so in this role it's actually combined with volt shot for even more damage but yeah having high impact in the left as like a damage increasing perk in the left we almost never see that that's usually reserved for like raid weapons I believe this might even be the first time we're seeing that um if not like it'll it'll be like the second or third time ever we're seeing this so that is pretty cool as well and they shouted out that this weapon is good in both PVE and especially PVP another weapon they showed off this time is not going to be a craftable Vex weapon but it's going to be one of the reprised season of dawn weapons the perfect Paradox this weapon is yet again a very big deal why well it's orent trait cast no Shadows says that dealing melee damage will actually reload uh rounds into the magazine so it's kind of like a slightly worse version of grave robber for free as the origin trait guys this weapon can get one two punch so getting one two punch on your shotgun and then getting a free grave robber kind of in the origin trait like this could become one of the best shotguns in the game to use with melee builds like oh I don't know the ir's caliban Prismatic Hunter that's cracked out of its mind so seriously this is going to be another very desirable weapon now continuing with very powerful things arriving to the game with Act 2 we actually get an entire new row of seasonal artifact perks and Bungie specifically said that these are geared around sniper rifles like these are going to boost your sniper rifles honestly to the moon so first of all as you can see right here we are getting anti barrier sniper rifle as a perk in the leftmost column this is crazy guys any time there is an anti-barrier perk that's for a special weapon that is a huge deal for your load out it means that if you're doing let's say a solo loss sector or something like that or a grandmas you don't have to run double primaries to deal with Champions but after that we have authorized mods scavenger so this is going to make your scavenger mods cheaper so you can more readily put them on and keep your sniper rifles fed with ammo and then after that guys this is where things get off the rails because we have incendiary rifle rounds where solar sniper rifle Precision hits Scorch Targets this is unbelievably powerful because remember Scorch Stacks will build and build and build as you get more Precision hits so if you're dpsing a boss with oh I don't know a good solar sniper rifle like the still hunt arguably the best DPS weapon in the entire game right now you're now going to be inflicting extra Scorch damage and also ignition explosions so literally the best sniper in the game the still hunt just boosted its DPS even more oh my goodness and it also made every other solar sniper way way more powerful and on top of that guys the next perk is solar f mintion where your ignitions do increased damage in an increased radius so first of all uh you could just put this on for your caliban Hunter and it's going to be broken uh but also that means again even more damage with your scorching igniting solar sniper my goodness and then if that wasn't good enough guys in the very final column we have snipers meditation where sniper rifle hits Grant St attacking sniper rifle damage stability and reload bonuses for a short time heavy ammo sniper rifle hits count as more than one so guess what else is a solar sniper and is a heavy The Whisper of the worm so your Whisper of the worm is going to be now causing Scorch causing ignitions that do even more damage and boosting its own de like guys with these seasonal artifact perks you could potentially be taking down raid bosses faster than ever like honestly go into King's fall with a a full fire team of uh Whisper of the worms and you're just going to be shredding orex with all of this additional damage like it is actually going to be insane you're going to be shredding the witness with your still hunts now after act two arrives like this is a crazy boost to solar sniper rifles now speaking of sniper rifles Bungie also then talked at the end of the stream about some of the uh Buffs and Nerfs that would be arriving with Act 2 and for snipers they're actually having the PVE Flinch so that is one of the biggest problems with using a sniper in PVE you know you're taking damage you're trying to keep your uh sights on the boss now that is going to be literally half in act two that's going to be crazy now another buff they talked about is for aggressive frame Scout rifles I just made a video on the time warn WF far and it's a crazy interaction with heal clip and how you can go wild with that definitely check that out because they're getting a 30% damage buff so if you crafted a Time worn Wayfare your boy chalk went up for your boy because oh my goodness you were going to be especially rewarded in Act 2 with that 30% PVE damage buff that's going to be crazy now on top of that guys for Titans they're actually buffing the damage of Twilight Arsenal and uh solar hammer so if you are running Twilight Arsenal in your Prismatic Titan which a lot of people are it's just going to get straight out better now after that The arion's Vow exotic special hand Cannon is getting a big damage buff so now it's going to be able to break barrier Champion shields in Just Two Shots going forward now another big change in Act 2 is that they're nerfing rallying with reserves so in case you don't know uh if you're raiding what you do is you put on a chest piece with a bunch of Reserve mods you rally the flag with that and then you switch back to your normal chest piece with the damage resist mods and you keep the massive amount of Reserve ammo you get from the reserve chest piece well that's not going to work now when you switch chest pieces your ammo will go back down but to counteract for this they said they're going to be buffing weapon reserves across the board by around 10 to 15% so you're now going to have just more Reserve ammo all the time and if you do want to use a reserve chest piece you're going to have even more Reserve ammo on top of that in addition they're going to be lowering the cost of Reserve chest mods down to two and they said that with the seasonal artifact mod that lowers them even more they're actually going to cost zero so they're going to be a lot easier to incorporate into your builds moving forward now for PVP they are going to be addressing the absolute Powerhouse that is the Prismatic Hunter by nerfing swarm grenades and threaded Spectre and then guys moving on from there the last thing we're going to talk about is that the new armor sets for Solstice of Heroes were also shown off so remember Solstice of Heroes is going to arrive kind of Midway through Act 2 on August 6th and here's what the new armor set is going to look like for the Warlock so the theme is kind of like old timey explorers honestly I think it looks pretty sick uh then we have the armor set for the Titan showcased right here and again looks pretty sick lastly we have the hunter armor set showcased right here now again these are going to maybe look a little bit different when they actually arrive to the game but this will give you a good idea for those Solstice armor sets arriving with the launch of solstice again August 6th and so guys that's it for the video hope you enjoyed and found this informative if you did please remember to help me out by simply rating and especially sharing this video
