Bungie, in a move that was both shocking and not at the same time, has decided to pull the trigger on the Linear Fusion Rifle tuning. We all knew it was a matter of time, but to have it launch ahead of schedule is what surprised Guardians.
The announcement came from the officialBungie Support Twitter account. In it, the developer outlines that the changes were initially planned for Season 19, but will instead be implemented on May 19, 2025, in Hotfix 6.2.5.3.

Regardless of players' feelings on the matter, we must simply adapt to the ever-evolving meta that is Destiny 2.
We are making some adjustments to Lineal Fusion Rifles. These were initially planned for Season 19 but have been brought forward to Hotfix 6.2.5.3, launching 11/8. The changes are as follows:
