Obscure Destiny 2 bug lets you one-hit bosses

Destiny 2's live service ambitions have come to an end with its final update last week. Bungie added everything and the kitchen sink, from new catalysts for every Exotic weapon to broken perk combinations, and with no new endgame to grind or necessarily protect the sanctity of balance, players are free to experiment with some of the most broken—and fun—tools we've ever had.

Players have found a new, obscure bug that allows multiple copies of the same seasonal artifact mods to be active at once. The exploit is simple: queue for a competitive or Trials of Osiris match, which disables your artifact; once it disables your artifact, inspect it and equip whatever mods you like; leave the queue, and it stays broken.

That leaves you able to equip max-level perks in any slot, including multiples of the same one, producing combinations that melt bosses in seconds.
