This week one of the most coveted weapons in Destiny 2 is getting nerfed, and saying fans are not happy would be an understatement. In the most recent “This Week at Bungie” it was revealed that The Whisper of the Worm, an exotic sniper rifle that has infinite ammo if you hit critical spots, will no longer have that ability. Instead, it will only have 18 rounds and while you’ll never have to reload it will now stop after you’ve exhausted your magazine. The nerfing of weapons and armor continues to occur with the Destiny sandbox time and time again even after promises that this design strategy would no longer occur. With Whisper specifically, it’s an exact recreation of the Black Hammer nerf that happened in the original Destiny.
