Destiny 2’s Recent Crafting Exploit is a Lose-Lose Situation

In Destiny 2’s latest exploit, players found a way to place incompatible weapon parts and perks from one craftable weapon onto another. This resulted in weapons that were able to deal massive amounts of damage due to their new perks, fire rates, ranges, and infinite ammo potential. While the game went through several iterations of fixes to address Destiny 2’s craftable weapon exploit, the damage was already done by this point. Ultimately, these kinds of exploits put Destiny 2 between a rock and a hard place when it comes to offering a balanced difficulty throughout the game while also providing a fun experience.
