Destiny 2’s<\/a> live service ambitions have come to an end with its final update<\/a> last week. And with it, Bungie added everything and the kitchen sink, from new catalysts<\/a> for every Exotic weapon to broken perk combinations. With no new endgame to grind or necessarily protect the sanctity of balance, Bungie’s set us free<\/a> with some of the most broken\u2014and fun\u2014tools we’ve ever had.<\/p>\n

Despite that, I don’t think Bungie ever expected returning to the infamous ‘Craftening’ levels of bonkers builds. For those who weren’t around then, this was a bug with the crafting system where you could pinch the perks of one gun onto another, including Exotics.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

More specifically, players have found a new bug where you can have multiple of the same seasonal artifact mods active at the same time. It’s really easy to do but, as always, so obscure that I’m baffled it was ever discovered:<\/p>\n

You’ll notice you can now equip max-level perks in any slot, including multiple of the same one. This has led to some game-breaking combinations that let you absolutely rinse bosses in a matter of seconds.<\/p>\n

For example, Kindling Flame can stack, giving you an ignition on any hits against unscorched enemies. You can use seven Pack Tactics mods and Warlock’s Mataiodoxia Exotic to have a ravenous Threadling army<\/a>. Or how about seven Thunderous Retort mods and max Super stat to turn Titan’s Thundercrash into a nuclear bomb.<\/p>\n

Despite living in the ‘do what you want’ era of Destiny, I’ve no doubt this bug will still be squashed very quickly simply due to how broken it is. Still, it feels so right that a bug like this would crop up at the end of the game’s lifecycle. Poetic, really. Some things never change.<\/p>\n

If you’ve got some raids or dungeons you’re yet to clear, now would be a good time to blitz through them. In fact, you can even solo some encounters using some of the builds mentioned above.<\/p>\n
