Bungie reworks some of the older exotics with Season of the Chosen.
According to the developer, the team plans to “shake up” the Exotics Aeon suite in Destiny 2.
For starters, the Aeon Cult Exotic armor pieces have their own unique mod socket and mods. These are unlocked as soon as you purchase the Exotic, and each is linked to one of several Aeon Cult reels.
The mods are identical in the Exotics for all three classes.
Each of these mods has one perk targeting the user and one allies. The second benefit includes an “extra benefit” for everyone on the team who has not chosen the same role.
The three Aeon Cult mods and the associated mechanics are as follows:
Season 13, or Season of the Chosen as it is called, kicks off on February 9 with the weekly reset on all platforms and runs through May 11.
The story focuses on the Cabal as Empress Caiatl seeks an alliance with humanity. But that fails and war breaks out with the Last City.
Season 13 also introduces Battlegrounds, seeing the return of two classic Strikes, a new Strike called Proving Grounds, new gear, over 25 weapons, and the Praefectus armor set and Ticuu’s Divination Exotic bow.
