Destiny 2veterans are no strangers to glitches that allow for unintentionally overpowered plays. There’s a lengthy history ofgame-breaking bugs in Bungie’s shooter, so it won’t come as much of a shock that, in the wake of theBeyond Lightexpansion’s launch this week, players have discovered that the Warlock’s new Stasis subclass, the Shadebinder, can pull off an endless super.
It’s only been two days since the expansion introduced icy Darkness-based subclasses toDestiny 2, and already players have found a way to break them to their advantage. As shared by YouTuber Cheese Forever, pulling off the glitch with the Shadebinder’s super is fairly simple, as it requires players to alternate between their heavy and light attacks in time with their Guardian’s animation cues. The trickiest part is getting the timing down, but once they do, players can spam the attacks for far longer than they’re supposed to.

This glitch shouldn’t be too problematic for players tackling PvE, but much like theinfinite Dawnblade Warlock super glitchplayers discovered earlier this year, this has the potential to be a nightmare for other players in PvP. Now that word of the Shadebinder glitch is spreading, though, it shouldn’t take too long for Bungie to become aware of it and start working on a fix.
Such a fix would be welcomed by a lot of fans, because many right now considerBeyond Light’s new abilities game-breaking enough without an actual bug making things worse. A general consensus is starting to form that theStasis subclasses are ruining the Cruciblethanks to incredibly powerful abilities like grenades that can freeze opponents in place and melees that can pull off one-hit kills with basically zero cooldown.
Of course, most of these complaints could potentially be chalked up to players not being used to Stasis. It is thefirst brand new element type that Bungie has added toDestinysince introducing Arc, Solar, and Void in the original game, after all, so it makes sense that players will need some time to become familiar with it and figure out how to counter it. That being said, longtimeDestiny 2players are used to overpowered weapons and abilities, so the fact that they’re complaining about how unbalanced the Stasis subclasses seem to be is rather telling.
The Shadebinder super glitch isn’t the only bug that’s been found inBeyond Lightso far. Yesterday, Bungie announced that it haddisabled the Witherhoard exotic grenade launcherafter it was discovered that the damaging effect caused by the bubbles of darkness it creates can last even after opponents step out of the bubbles. As of this writing, there is no ETA for when it might be added back into the game.
