Bungie has published a new blog that outlines major adjustments for Episode Heresy. This breakdown covers numerous crucial modifications in the Trials of Osiris, as well as details regarding the Lighthouse chest and weekly winning streak rewards.

In the context of the Episode Heresy, Bungie has revealed three fresh weapons. One of them is the return of a fan-favorite weapon, Exalted Truth, which comes equipped with some exciting new perk combinations. Additionally, they’ve introduced a brand new sniper rifle, called Keen Thistle.

According to reports, Keen Thistle boasts “a minimum of two powerful PvE abilities,” and it’s built with the intention of providing stiff competition to Mechabre in the Crucible.

In the beginning of Episode Heresy, both the Keen Thistle and the Exalted Truth will be accessible, and here are their respective benefits:

1. Keen Thistle: This weapon offers an increased rate of fire, making it ideal for rapid-fire combat situations. Additionally, it has a unique ability to pierce through multiple enemies with each shot.

2. Exalted Truth: This weapon provides a significant boost in damage output, making it perfect for taking down heavily armored foes. Furthermore, it also comes with an area of effect attack that can harm nearby enemies.
