Gambit will be seeing some interesting changes, but the most impactful updates are coming to some of the game’s guns — namely shotguns. > Shotguns have been a cornerstone of players’ loadouts since the original Destiny — with a brief hiatus in Destiny 2 Year 1. On March 5, they’ll see some significant changes. In all PvE activities, shotguns will now deal double damage (except the exotic heavy shotgun, Legend of Acrius). Yet, the rate of fire — how many rounds they fire per minute, or RPM — of the most popular shotguns will decrease.
