Three Unused Weapon Combinations I’d Like to See in Destiny 2
For the most part, weapons in Destiny 2 fit into both a type (e.g. auto rifle, sidearm, etc.) and an ammo currency (primary, special, or heavy). But some weapons get a little silly with it.

Destiny 2 Streamers Rejoice, No Flawless Pool in Trials this Weekend
A while back, Destiny 2 introduced the concept of the “Flawless pool” for the Trials of Osiris PVP mode.
