While Bungie may well be going through a rough patch over the past couple of months, Destiny 2‘s Season of the Witch has proven to be quite good in the end. Now, with Season 23 about to release on November 28, Bungie’s revealed more details about its Seasonal Artifact.
Notably, the latest Destiny 2 weekly blog goes in-depth on the Queensfoil Censer: a mysterious Ahamkara-borne object that’s going to infuse Guardians with power over the course of the Season of the Wish. Players can expect a focus on Solar, Strand, and Stasis abilities and buffs, as well as an affinity for rocket launcher weapons, allowing for powerful combinations both expected and not.
Destiny 2 Season of the Wish Artifact: the Queensfoil Censer
The Queensfoil Censer is, from the looks of it, made of Ahamkara bones and teeth grafted into a censer made for some unknown purpose. Its importance in lore is currently unknown but as the Season of the Wish is bound to discuss Ahamkara to a great extent, we’re hoping to learn a thing or two about some of Destiny‘s biggest mysteries.
As curious as the Queensfoil Censer’s design and purpose might be, that’s not the most important bit players are eager to learn about. That honour, instead, falls upon Censer’s all-new modding opportunities, and Bungie has already blessed us with a comprehensive overview of what Season 23 will offer.
Season 23 Artifact Mods in Destiny 2
It should come as no surprise that the Season of the Wish’s Seasonal Artifact doesn’t appear to mechanically differ from any of the older Artifacts, from what we currently know. It still comes with a selection of mods both old and new (25 of them in total) that players will be able to pick off and unlock, one at a time.
In regard to one of Destiny 2‘s most infamous enemy type, players will have immediate access to the following anti-Champion mods in Season 23:
- Anti-Barrier Sidearm
- Unstoppable Hand Cannon
- Unstoppable Bow
- Overload Auto Rifle
- Overload Pulse Rifle
As an added bonus, there’s a special Overload Rocket Launcher mod in the fourth unlock pillar of the Artifact. Though, it’s going to take a while until anyone can unlock a fourth-tier mod in the first place.
Interested players can check out the full assortment of Destiny 2 Season 23 mods via the aforementioned TWID blog post, but some highlights include:
- Hail The Storm: Shattering encased targets and Stasis crystals deal more damage, with Stasis crystal explosions sending out ice shrapnel that damages and slows nearby enemies.
- Rays of Precision: Radiance allows Solar precision final blows to ignite other combatants.
- Dragon’s Bite: Breaking combatant shields with Strand or Stasis weapons can suspend or freeze the combatant. Seasonal armour increases the chance of this happening.
And, finally, the beloved Solo Operative mod is making a triumphant return as well as a fifth-tier mod. Getting to it might take some work, then, but it’s bound to be handy for those who aim to get some solo flawless Dungeon runs done. All in all, we’re in for a fairly promising season if the meta pans out!
