Bungie Announces Significant Nerfs to Destiny 2’s Popular Exotic Armor Sets for Hunters and Titans

Mid-Season Overhaul Aims to Balance PvP Playability

Destiny 2 players are in for a significant change as Bungie has decided to undertake a mid-season overhaul, aiming to address two of the game’s most popular exotic armor items—the Titan’s Antaeus Wards boots and the Hunters’ Young Ahamkara’s Spine gauntlets. These changes, while impacting cherished gear, are intended to enhance the fairness and enjoyment of player vs. player (PvP) gameplay.

In its weekly update blog post, Bungie stated, “For the Season 22 mid-Season update, we wanted to adjust two Exotic armors that we felt were becoming hard to counter in PvP. Antaeus Wards was granting too large a benefit for too little a cost. It also suffered from a lack of meaningful counterplay options.”
