Players have been getting unreleased weapons, and Bungie has also recently confirmed that they are not going to fix a game-changing bug thanks to its popularity amongst the D2 community. While Act 1 has been very good, acts 2 and 3 are imminent, and a Destiny 2 Heresy leak has revealed details about a fun new mode very similar to D1.Destiny 2 Heresy leak reveals new boss rush modeWe previously reported about a leak that suggested a boss rush mode was coming to Destiny 2 Episode Heresy, but this has now been reaffirmed with a lot of details provided by BungieLeaks. This boss rush mode is said to be very similar to Court of Oryx from D1, if not the exact same.Per BungieLeaks, it is a boss rush mode with preparation phases in between encounters, and the Combatant difficulty increases after every other preparation phase. It begins with players spawning at the Hall of Souls, and there is a Taken Altar [that] allows us to change our Taken Path (Resolve or Ambition), and allows us to increase our rune empowerment with Sigil Stones.

This is because theres 3 variants (Blood of Oryx, Lucent Brood, and Wrathborn) and Act II is only 3 weeks long.As of writing, Episode Heresy Act 2 is currently scheduled for March 11th with Act 3 on April 1st. Heresy is currently scheduled to end completely on July 15th.For more Destiny 2, leaks have revealed a weapon thats so good it feels like youre cheating, and Sony has responded to a$200 million dollar lawsuitfrom former D2 director.Destiny 2Platform(s):Google Stadia, PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Web, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/XGenre(s):Action, Adventure, First Person, Massively Multiplayer, Shooter8VideoGamerRelated TopicsDestiny 2 Subscribe to our newsletters!By subscribing, you agree to our Privacy Policy and may receive occasional deal communications; you can unsubscribe anytime.Share
