Giver’s Blessing
While very few weapons have been shown off in detail so far, the Giver’s Blessing, a Kinetic, rapid-fire frame auto rifle that was revealed, has some major implications for other upcoming weapons. More specifically, the version of this weapon that was shown off was a tier-5 weapon, with its random weapon attachments and Origin perk capable of being enhanced, while also having three random perks available in both columns. Considering that this is seemingly just a common weapon from the loot pool ofDestiny 2’s new planet, Kepler, the endgame weapons fromThe Edge of Fateexpansion will surely shake up the meta for legendary weapons in major ways.
Yeartide Apex
This new lightweight frame Solar SMG will be part of the Solstice 2025Seasonal Event loot pool. Weapons from this Seasonal Event are said to be the first to utilizeDestiny 2’s newest Holofoil cosmetic theme, which is a moving design on the weapon that depicts an ocean shoreline. Though the full perk rolls of this weapon are still unknown, the version of this weapon shown off in the stream notably featured the Heal-Clip perk in its first column, and a new, unknown perk in its second column. The Yeartide Apex SMG also has the choice of two Origin perks: Tex Balanced Stock or Dream Work.
