Destiny 2 Season 23 Exotic armor buffs have been leaked early by Bungie
Bungie has accidentally revealed a series of Exotic armor changes coming toDestiny 2having updated their in-game descriptions too soon revealing their future effects in the process.
Each season Bungie reworks a series of Exotics that either aren’t performing as well as expected or are not that fun to use.
For example,Season of the Witchsaw Foetracer, Renewal Grasps, and Knucklehead Radar all go from borderline useless to viable meta options followingtheir reworks.
We weren’t expecting to find out much about next season’s Exotic armor changes for a little while but a slip-up on Bungie’s behalf has revealed some incredible buffs are on the way.
Several Exotic armor pieces are getting buffed in Season 23 and Bungie has now accidentally revealed which ones ahead of schedule.
These were all the Exotic armor pieces that received updated descriptions revealing future buffs:
This mistake wasquickly spotted by Guardianswith various Exotic armor pieces having updated descriptions revealing what changes are coming. Some quick testing by the community proved that these buffs are not live yet but will be coming sometime in the future.
Destiny 2 players were quick to speculate which buffs would have the most impact with dreams of a potential Trespasser plus Mechaneer’s Tricksleeves combo and the return of ST0MP-EE5s in PvP being particular highlights.
Update – July 15, 2025:Bungie has responded to the Exotic armor leaksand confirmed that these six are only a handful of the Exotic changes coming in Season 23. Both Warlock and Titan will receive their own set of reworked Exotics too.
