Wildcard Origin Trait - Spawn Unlimited Telesto Bolts | Destiny 2
Destiny 2 Lightfall - Season of the Witch
Wildcard, a newly introduced origin trait and one which immediately caught my interest, what is an elemental submunition and can they be useful anywhere? Turns out these submunitions are similar to the explosive bolts fired from Telesto, a weapon which has a similar design to these weapons too so fits thematically.
These bolts will drop to the ground at the location of targets defeated by a wildcard weapon and should any enemies run over them it will explode for small AoE damage. More bolts can be dropped by defeating high ranked enemies. Red bars will drop a single submunition but majors will drop 3 while bosses will drop 7.
Its a quite strong origin trait as its almost strong enough by itself to be a full perk and will thrive in ad dense activities which there are much more of as of recent. If its an option it will be worth choosing.
