Destiny 2 hits Le Monarque hard with PvP nerfs in season 22
Destiny 2 hits Le Monarque hard with PvP nerfs in season 22

Certain Exotic weapons have always overperformed in Destiny 2’s PvP environment. Guns like Dead Man’s Tale have become notorious in the seasons prior to their subsequent nerfs, but one bow in particular has remained infamous to this day from the Black Armory’s stock. Combining a heavy-hitting arrow with ticks of poison damage, Le Monarque has always been an effective and easy way to dispatch opponents.

Bungie wants to curb Le Monarque’s power level in season 22, though, and revealed today in a weapons preview blog ahead of the launch next week that the Exotic bow will be receiving a plethora of reworks and adjustments to heavily nerf its impact in the Crucible. That includes changes to its draw time and body shot damage that push it into an entirely different frame category, as well as changes to the damage-over-time effect.
