Bungie is still terrible for making it so Energy weapons do less bonus damage against enemy supers though.

Those are just the 401 light greens you'll get in the first mission throw away in 15 minutes when you get something else. The WoW shoulders are saved for legendary tiers so everyone will be wearing them in a few days.

Everything makes it sound like Black Armory will be a set of unique reward items within categories that also contain lesser items obtainable by all players. Just like how every other pinnacle activity works.

So what kind of damage will my Last Hope and EP SMG do after the patch today? I know they use white ammo and can go in Slot 1 or Slot 2, but that's awesome if we're suddenly getting non-Exotic elemental primaries!

the slot doesn't matter. you could have had what amounted to elemental primaries at d2 launch.

if they're not changing to kinetic damage, they're still going to be in the second slot.

no, HMGs are part of the "free seasonal updates" just like balance patches, you'll just be missing out on a few specific ones like exotics or legendaries that don't drop from vendors with seasonally-rotating stock

fusion rifle is your energy weapon

your slots are kinetic, energy, and heavy. special weapons can be either kinetic or energy, same as primaries.

"Primary ammo weapons and Special ammo weapons may exist in either the Kinetic or Energy slot."

So individual weapons are still tied to one slot though? Regardless of what ammo type they use?

correct, damage type (kinetic or energy) determines slot, gun type (primary or special) determines ammo rarity

Hand Cannons
Scout Rifles
Auto Rifles
Pulse Rifles
Sidearms
Submachine Guns

will always always use White ammo, but specific individual guns might go in Slot 1 and do kinetic damage, or go in Slot 2 and do elemental damage

Fusion Rifles
Shotguns
Sniper Rifles
Trace Rifles
Single Shot Grenade Launchers

will always always use Green ammo, but specific individual guns might go in Slot 1 and do kinetic damage, or go in Slot 2 and do elemental damage

Drum-Loaded Grenade Launchers
Rocket launchers
Linear Fusion Rifles
Swords

will always use purple ammo and go in Slot 3




And of course there's the goofballs:

Tractor Cannon
The Legend of Acrius
D.A.R.C.I.
Whisper of the Worm

These go in Slot 3 and use purple ammo

Sleeper Simulant wasn't mentioned in the patch notes but I would assume it's still a power weapon. Also looks like it's back to 3 in the mag just like in D1.
