While it wasn't a big part of the game when it first came out in 2017, buildcrafting has become a huge part of Destiny 2's identity and even changed its gameplay loop and the kind of rewards it offers. For example, Destiny 2's Heresy buffs to Arc added more depth to what felt like 2.5D subclasses due to the lack of either a big damage-related effect or a new defensive layer. The current version of Arc is its best, with players having damage reduction from Amplified and the potential for massive damage spikes with Bolt Charge. On top of that, Heresy added a new damage perk that may seem more powerful than it truly is.
