Developers have also added a sniper rifle called ‘Cloud Strike’ that produces a lightning effect when shot accurately. Additionally, the game will get a knife called ‘Athrys’s Embrace’ which ricochets on hitting surfaces when thrown.

Included in the new look arsenal is ‘The Lament’, equipment that players can use to shred barrier shields. Another addition is the ‘Icefall Mantle’ armor, which replaces the barricade with an overshield. Another important piece of armor included will be the ‘Mask of Bakris’, which will allow players to teleport short distances when equipped.

There are a lot more items included in the expansion. Players can see the details of all the new additions on Destiny 2’s Weapons and Gear page.
