Destiny 2’s Telesto exotic has been put on ice after players discover a massive exploit
Telesto is taking a bit of a resto. Bungie has disabled access to the exotic fusion rifle in all activities in Destiny 2, after players discovered a game-breaking combination with one of the weapon mods gained from Iron Banner.
Here's how it works: Telesto fires fusion projectiles that attach to surfaces and detonate after a delay, or if an enemy wanders too close. These are effectively mines, which makes Telesto a terrific weapon for zoning.
The problem, however, is that Destiny 2 sometimes has trouble knowing how to tally up Telesto's exploding mines. Last year this became a problem in the Blind Well, since the game counted each blown-up charge as a kill. That made the Blind Well trivially easy to complete, and Bungie quickly acted to patch the exploit.
Now, if you equip an Enhanced Ashes to Assets mod, which you can pick up in Pinnacle Activities like Iron Banner, blowing up your own Telesto charges with a grenade instantly charges your super, since Destiny 2 counts each 'mine' as a grenade kill. Just fire a few bursts of Telesto at a nearby surface, chuck a grenade at them, and boom - 'Super Charged' appears across your screen.
