Infamous Destiny 2 Exotic shotgun disabled after buff leaves it unintentionally powerful – again
A new challenger to Telesto's throne♎ has entered the ring

One of Destiny 2's more powerful Exotic shotguns, the Lord of Wolves, has been temporarily disabled after a recent buff left it more lethal than Bungie had intended.
As per Destiny 2's latest , the hybrid shotgun / burst-fire weapon's Releꦚase the Wolves perk was buffed to grant an additional 40% damage in PvE, among other things. The problem was, though, that the buff seemed to apply to everything once the gun was equipped – including a player's super, for example.
That's not supposed to happen, naturally, so Bungie has 𒉰disab✃led the weapon for now.
"The Lord of Wolves Exotic shotgun has been disabled due to aꦜn issue where it can apply more damage than intended," the developer . "We are targeting next week's update to release the fix. More information 🔯will be provided when available."
While t🐎he fun only lasted for a few hours, plenty of clips online show off just how busted The Lord of Wolves was with the bug in full flow. Here are a few choice hiꦏghlights.

Naturally, a few comparisons to the infamou🔜s Telesto – a fusion rifle that has also broken the game – have been made.

I hope telesto has been reprimanded accordingly //t✱.co/EmqY8wOWgb
While the Lord of Wolves hasn't quite broken Destiny 2 as much as the Telesto, it's certainly enjoyed a few reigns of terror n🌜ow. One infamous example that comes to mind was an Iron Banner event that led Bungie to hand out free to players to mark it as a special occasion.

Speaking of, here's the story of how an easter egg dedicated to Destiny 2's most broken gun added another bug to Telesto's hall of shame.

I joi♍ned GamesRadar+ in May 2022 following stints at PCGamesN and PocketGamer.Biz, with some🅺 freelance for Kotaku UK, RockPaperShotgun, and VG24/7 thrown in for good measure. When I'm not running the news team on the games side, you'll find me putting News Editor duties to one side to play the hottest JRPG of 20 years ago or pillaging the depths of Final Fantasy 14 for a swanky new cloak – the more colourful, the better.
