Destiny 2 Piercing Sidearm Not Working
It’s either because of a bug, or the piercing sidearm has been disabled. In addition, Bungie has also disabled the piercing sidearm for some reasons.
All across the globe, almost eighty percent of Destiny players have reported their complaints regarding the piercing sidearm.
There are only a couple of reasons why your piercing sidearm is not working.
We will follow the sequence of the reasons which will lead us to the ‘main’ reasons why the piercing sidearm is not working at all.
The reasons are as follows:
1. A Bug Or A Glitch In Destiny 2
Users are not able to buy the piercing sidearm or use it in a fight because the app has some internal issues which do not allow users to use the piercing sidearm.
2. Short Distances
There is one major change you will see if you succeed in using the piercing sidearm is that you can only use it to shoot for short distances and to “shoot through the walls,” so if you are trying to use the pricing sidearm to shoot for a long distance then piercing sidearm will not work.
3. Bungie Has Disabled It
As the piercing sidearm has got its new feature where it can shoot through the walls, it has become more powerful, and its increasing use has caused the bugs and the artifacts in Destiny 2 to glitch.
Users who have purchased it are not able to use it as it shows that they have not bought it yet.
The demand and the glitch rates, overpowering effects of piercing sidearm, and other major reasons made Bungie (the developers) disable the equipment.
