Destiny 2: The New Xenophage Exotic Machine Gun Is Ironically Bugged

Among the many new things introduced to Destiny 2 last week for anyone playing Shadowkeep was another Exotic weapon quest, this one for the Xenophage machine gun. Starting the quest and seeing it all the way through is challenging (unless you use our guide), but that didn’t stop some players from quickly getting their hands on it–and finding themselves underwhelmed. As it turns out, the weapon isn’t just bad, it’s bugged, causing it to be less effective than intended. There’s no word on when it will be fixed, but you can rest assured that there are plans in the works to fix it.

After players began to unlock Xenophage, posts began to pop up on places like Reddit wondering if something was wrong. The weapon was not dealing precision damage and was generally not great–not exactly what you’d expect from an Exotic light machine gun.

Now Playing: Destiny 2 – How To Start Xenophage Exotic Quest

In response to some of the feedback that’s been shared about the new gun, Bungie community manager Cozmo23 wrote on Reddit, “I checked with the team on this. The fact that Xenophage does not do precision damage is not a bug and by design. However, the weapon is unintentionally underperforming and we are currently investigating.”
