This NEW Exotic is NOT What You Think It Is? - Destiny 2

Alethonym is the New Exotic Stasis Grenade Launcher in Destiny 2 Episode Revenant but is it any good? This is my honest thoughts about Alethonym and where it sits in the new sandbox for Endgame Content and Builds in Destiny 2 for Grandmaster Nightfalls and the New Vespers Host Dungeon Race.

It spawns free ammo on a consistent basis no rng involved. Does more dmg than mountain top has infinite ammo. Not everything with an element needs to synergies with that element. The guns an insane support weapon with the free ammo while still being a decent dmg option.

Here is what I would’ve done with the Catalyst.

1. It gets Danger Zone and Shoot To Loot. What this means is that you can just fire the weapon to pick up any and all ammo you spawn, and because of Danger Zone, the radius will be larger allowing for a better chance of picking up while in combat.

2. Picking up Ammo will grant an Empowered Shot. This empowered shot will do slightly increased damage and will apply stacks of slow. The more Ammo you pick up, the more empowered shots you will gain (up to a limit of, let’s say, 5 shots)

On special ammo pick up, you gain 5% increased damage and cause 15 stacks of slow.
Heavy Ammo will cause 10% damage increase and 30 stacks of slow.

This will encourage players to save up for Heavy ammo shots instead of Special Ammo, but always provide a benefit even if you decided to go for Special Ammo.

Mid is underselling this exotic, I understand where people are coming from when they say it needs synergy. However, I think people are comparing it to the wrong weapons. Any Stasis synergy they add will make it mechanically very similar to the other Stasis exotics we already have, if they gave it slow it would be far to similar to Wicked Implement and Ager's if they give it freezing or crystals then it's in the realm of Salvations and Cryo. We should be comparing it to the likes of Fighting Lion, Witherhoard, and the other breachload gl's, and that's where it shines imo as a support / primary exotic

[fangslore]

you're using it wrong. it does more damage to the mountian top first, it does a DOT to yellow bars as it creates vestiges but what i did was pair it with other GLs i've got it with my Prodigal return GL which has envious Assassin Voltshot well as a bitter/sweet (still trying to get the god role for that) and it works because its basically free ammo when my other GLs run out

[TheVideogamer]

This nade launcher is being looked at wrong. It's a primary ammo weapon getting infinite ammo from season 15. It's perks are about being team support when bosses and a lot of ads are near. It makes more energy from yellow bars and immune bosses. Bungie may nerf the immune part at a later time, but they haven't made any mention of it, so probably okay with it. Its great for between dps phases of raids and dungeons. Gms, maybe I don't do or support the idea of gms so have to try that there yourself.

Love this honest review. All other reviews say how it is game changing. Mid with no stasis synergy. Another exotic that will sit in my vault.

[unwished]

I do think it should’ve had stasis synergy, maybe as you stick enemies it slows them or when collecting enough souls it grants a damage buff. I mean looking at the stats it does out damage mountaintop in both raw Dmg and DPS while having all the usability of mountaintop with infinite ammo which is why I like it and use it, plus in solo and groups ammo is nice for a free exotic everyone can get

[mika]

Instead of granting ammo, at max stacks we should get frost armor. 36% against light damage and 45% against darkness damage type. It would lean right into the gameplay and season.

[yol_n]

It's a boring weapon but I love it because it's a infinite ammo mountaintop I can use if I run out of mountaintop ammo.

[RageQuitVM]

mine went straight into my fault after taking a look at it. came to see if anyone had a reason for me to pull it out. thanks for being honest, you confirmed what i thought about it.

[roma_nova]

The seasonal exotic GL feels great but it needs stasis synergy. I don’t want ammo either. Weak exotic perk for sure. I was hoping the catalyst added some new type of making a stasis crystal

[lordphoenixbrown]

This is how I felt at the beginning of the season. Now that a youtuber see what I see, but after a month when the season lonched. Lol 😆
I said to everyone that it does not have anything to do with staitsis. No one cared because it looked cool. But I knew that it was mid as hell. No one believed me. 😢

[Kel.Alexis]

Slow on a infinite ammo gl would be broken

[slobdog]

It’s a good job it it primary as it’s pretty underwhelming. Plus I can get it to spawn special but not heavy at all. The best thing about it is it’s looks 🤷🏽‍♂️

[thetruth]

I think it should be kinetic, and maybe have a melee attack. It honestly should have been a glaive with piercing projectiles that could crit for extra damage. Then have kills and precision hits charge a perk where blocking would regenerate health. Being stasis makes no sense.

[hyperhawk]

This exotic is way better than mid. It has great synergy on Stasis Titan with Diamond Lances and pairs well with Icefall Mantle or Blastwave Striders. Unlimited ammo Mountaintop is also just fun to use. Really disagree with this review

[NorthyRamone]

I think mid is being very generous mate

[larrywoolfolk]

Solo the master lost sector with it. It's not a damaged weapon but a QoL weapon. They unironically want us to run triple GL, and the dmg numbers are there. Ran it in well warlock and clocked 5mil with just weapons.

[wolfgang]

I thought it would have made the ammo economy actually good, but then I realized it takes forever to get enough for either the special or heavy ammo and the drop is the same as an ammo finder, not a normal ammo drop so it's just useless, just as Bungie intended like always.

Also from you, ammo being plentiful in all levels of content?! Ha, not even close. I've run with ammo finder mods and even double stacked them and I still rarely get ammo from them. To go with that, their amount returned thanks to the brick is pitiful at best. What are you smoking if you think ammo is plentiful?

[KhaoticKatarin]

Its not even shoot to loot.. they could have atleast given it that
