Destiny 2 brings back the popular Eyasluna in December - what about icebreaker?

December is getting closer and thus Indestiny 2 also the 30 years bungie expansion package. Some returnees, like Eyasluna, are confirmed. But now new rumors that additionally the exotic sniper rifle could return icebreaker.

On December 7, the 30-year bungie package will bring new and old contents to Destiny 2. The confirmed weapons include the most famous exotic rocket launcher Gjallarhorn, the legendary handgun Eyasluna (the legendary variant of the Falkenmond) and the Sniper 1000-Yard Stare.

For this purpose, the birthday package will offer further content:

A new dungeon will come. In addition, there will be a new 6-player activity. Plus ornaments and cosmetics, e.g. The mandrel armor set.

But now rumors in the community were loud, that would not be anything yet.

What we currently know: We know that it will give it to the publication, on December 7, also a huge sandbox patch. This includes above all capability and arms changes. However, since the rocket launcher Gjallarhorn also celebrates its debut in Destiny 2, players now speculate on another, revised EXO weapon.

Why the icebreaker sniper? The Reddit user Xonslaught (via reddit) has shared a screenshot with the percentage of weapon usage in the trials of Osiris. To see is the exotic sniper rifle icebreaker together with the Eyasluna. Xonslaught speculates with the return of the superpowered Sniper.

The fact that Eyasluna is in the same screenshot gives the source quite credibility. It also shows that the data of the EXO-Sniper already exist in the game.

What can the Exo-Sniper icebreakers? Who Destiny 1 has liked to have probably still have a good memory of this classical exotic. Icebreaker is an exotic solar sniper rifle and became extremely popular due to its ability over time to regenerate ammunition. In the first part she was almost indispensable. She had a key role in PvE activities and was a powerhouse in the PVP.

The community believes in a context

The rumor about the return of the EXO-Sniper came well in the community especially for long-term players. Possibilities for a return from icebreakers See the players in any case. So the reddit user writes aggressive pattern:

What if you would make the infinite / regenerating ammunition more interesting? That it is regenerated after every kill with another weapon ammunition (not from reserves afterwards)? That seems a bit more balanced.

And lk tempest supplements:

The presence of Eyasluna gives me hope that icebreakers actually return. Even if the weapon is completely revised, it was a sick gun.

It should also not be forgotten that Bungie has already relied on many weapons from the past. Iconic examples are here the VEX mythoclast or the falcon moon.

How credible is the comeback? BUNGIES page has not been leaked or confirmed in this regard, especially no return of the icebreakers. So we can only speculate.

But even if it comes in December and icebreaker comes back, it will not be the weapon to know the veterans from Destiny 1. This also makes Bungie clearly clear. Joe Blackburn explained in an interview that Destiny weapons are never equal if they are reissued for Destiny 2.

Destiny 2 will soon replace Exo Quests

The sniper icebreakers would be an excellent carrot for the players in a new EXO quest, similar to omen or sign. Both challenging missions that were popular. But both missions must leave Destiny 2 soon.

Bungie has definitely announced replacement for these unique, seasonal activities. But when and how they come into the game, usually remains secret. Of course, that makes it difficult for the players to find out if it is worth paying for a new extension or season.

Do you believe in the return of icebreaker? And does your bungie perhaps already hid a new exo quest in December?
