If Bungie could implement more quests of that ilk that offered viable PvP drops, it would add to the pool of easy to obtain PvP weapons and may help lessen the prevalence of the MIDA Multi-Tool.The Mida Multi-Tool was a fan-favourite Scout Rifle from the original Destiny, so it's pleasing to see it return for the sequel. There are a few legendary weapons that are tied to quests and can be re-bought from the quest giver (Drang, MIDA Mini-tool, and Man O’ War). Another route could be to expand on something that’s actually already in Destiny 2. Maybe if they coupled it with a free exotic or two of the player’s choice they could pull it off, but still, hardcore fans of it will be super upset. How can Bungie fix it though? The most effective way would be to just delete Mida from the game, but that’s incredibly unlikely since the backlash would be insane. Considering their disdain for one weapon/type dominating the scene in the first Destiny, it’s likely that it will be addressed at some point in the near future. It remains to be seen if Bungie will acknowledge this issue before Trials of the Nine this weekend, or if they have any problem with it at all. The only part that might take some time is getting the five scout rifles if you didn’t just save them ahead of time. Nothing that requires any real test of skill. All it takes is going out, killing a handful of enemies a certain way and breaking down five blue or rarer scout rifles. The Mida Multi-Tool is obtained not by a random drop, but through arguably the easiest exotic quest in the game. The main problem is that anyone that puts at least a little bit of effort, can get this (still very good but not broken) weapon very easily. The power of the weapon is kind of irrelevant unless it’s just absurdly broken which Mida Multi-Tool is not. For the most part, if you and your team are better, you should win. It’s not much different than lower league players in games such as League of Legends and StarCraft 2 stressing over balance issues that really only impact the top 1% (or less) of players. Unless you’re playing at the very highest level of play, any gun can be countered by someone with better skill. As you may have ascertained from the title of this article, the issue isn’t that Mida Multi-Tool is a great gun. However, when Destiny 2 launched, it was discovered the Mida Multi-Tool was one of the guns that were chosen to return from the original. While Mida Multi-Tool was popular in Destiny, it’s a gun that some were looking forward to being left behind to see what PvP would look like without it in Destiny 2. Plus of course, it is powerful, and if you are a good shot, you can easily overwhelm opponents especially with some team shooting to support you. So as long as you are more or less where you want to be positioned, you could just always be looking down your sights and get the jump on players that need to spend an extra split second or two drawing their weapon and aiming at you. This is a tremendous asset as it allows players to overcome the two disadvantages of aiming down the sights: moving slowly and not being able to see movement around you. What Mida Multi-Tool does (in both games) is provide its user with a speed boost while aiming, along with access to the radar normally hidden while looking down the sights.
