Bungie has confirmed that a big loot overhaul is coming to Prophecy with Destiny 2’s most beautiful dungeon set to receive three new weapons that all feature a powerful Origin Trait.

As players grow increasingly discontent with the state of Destiny 2, and many flock to other success stories like Helldivers 2, Bungie is under more pressure than ever to draw players back in.

In addition to the upcoming Into The Light update, the Destiny developer has also promised huge changes for PvP as part of Update 7.3.5.

It isn’t just PvP players who are getting treated next month either with one of Destiny’s fan-favorite dungeons set to get a loot refresh introducing three new weapons.

Prophecy dungeon loot changes coming in March

The Prophecy dungeon is getting a loot refresh on March 5 introducing three new weapons and reworking three existing weapons, as confirmed in a TWID posted on February 22.

The three new weapons being introduced are:

  • Adjudicator SMG – Kinetic, Precision Frame
  • Prosecutor Auto Rifle – Arc, Precision Frame
  • Relentless Pulse Rifle – Strand, High-Impact Frame

These weapons are replacing A Swift Verdict, The Long Walk, and The Last Breath with each of them featuring an all-new perk pool. Those wanting to farm these old weapons will need to do so before March 5 as they won’t be available once the update is released.

Destiny 2 players have until March 5 to farm A Swift Verdict before it is replaced.

The three old weapons getting refreshed are:

  • A Sudden Death Shotgun – Void, Aggressive Frame
  • Darkest Before Pulse Rifle – Solar, Rapid-Fire Frame
  • Judgment Hand Cannon – Stasis, Adaptive Frame

All three refreshed weapons have had their damage type changed and will also benefit from receiving entirely new perk pools. Given that these weapons were last reissued in Season 15 an update is welcome.

Another way that Bungie is making these classic weapons feel fresh again is by introducing a new Origin Trait, Crossing Over. This trait has the following effect:

  • Crossing Over Origin Trait: “These weapons have increased range and handling for the top half of the magazine, while rounds from the bottom half of the magazine deal increased damage.”

The weapon refresh also means the loot tables for each encounter have been updated. From March 5, Phalanx Echo will drop Relentless and Prosecutor, The Cube will drop A Sudden Death and Adjudicator, and Kell Echo will drop Judgment and Darkest Before.
