Nerfs are coming for Destiny 2’s best guns, including Whisper of the Worm
Destiny 2 is nerfing some of the game's strongest and most desirable Exotic weapons, including Whisper of the Worm - a prestigious sniper rifle that delighted fans with its surprise arrival in a secret quest last year.
But Whisper is now being nerfed in exactly the same way as its predecessor, Black Hammer, was back in Destiny 1. Landing three precision hits in a row will now instantly refill the magazine from your reserves, rather than generating ammo from nowhere, though reserve ammo is increased to 18 to compensate.
Other notable nerfs include to ricochet damage on Sleeper Simulant - a defining aspect of the weapon, like Whisper's refill ability. Lord of Wolves' PvE damage is down by 20%, and its Release the Wolves perk now triggers by holding reload, rather than automatically on kills. Finally, Ace of Spades has been nerfed in the Crucible - the Memento Mori damage buff is reduced in PvP, and ends if the gun is stowed (though it's active for six shots again rather than five). This is so you can no longer two-tap enemies with the One-Eyes Mask, which is fair enough, really.
