Every gear piece leaving with the Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate expansion

Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate will launch with a drastic sandbox change from Episode Heresy. The new saga will leave out most of the gear pieces from seasonal and core activities, allowing players to go in and get new loot for the new sandbox. Furthermore, this also means that players can obtain these gear pieces before Heresy is removed, as they will still be significantly viable.

This article lists everything that will be removed from the loot pool with the The Edge of Fate expansion, starting July 15.

The following list mentions each of the vaulting and what to do before the expansion launch:

• Echoes weapons and armor: Part of the seasonal gear pieces, hence the vaulting. Get Aberrant Action Sidearm and Corrasion Pulse Rifle. Get any high-stat armor.
• Revenant weapons and armor: Seasonal gear. Get Exuviae and Liturgy, alongside high-stat armor.
• Heresy weapons and armor: Seasonal gear. Get Psychopomp and Watchful Eye Adepts, alongside high-stat armor.
• Rite of the Nine: One-time event. Get the Adept versions of Judgment, Sudden Death, Wilderflight, Terminus Horizon, and No Survivors.
• Ritual weapons: Reputation and Engrams are getting removed, making the purchasing of every ritual gear more expensive in The Edge of Fate. Get Randy's Throwing Knife.
• Nightfall: The current Nightfall weapon is getting moved to Legacy, with Engrams and reputation getting removed like Ritual. Hence, the upcoming Nightfall weapons might be more expensive.
• Legacy competitive and Trials: Every Legacy weapon from the high-tier PvP activities will be moved to Xur's shop. Due to this, getting the best perk will become more difficult going forward. Get Rose and Exalted Truth.
• Destination material: All destination material will be removed from The Edge of Fate. Hence, using them for Glimmer and other materials is a good idea now.
• Exotic armor: Any Exotic armor dropping in The Edge of Fate will have low stat-distribution, unlike the current sandbox. Get any armor suited for your build.
