Notes

• Telesto used to be a Power weapon in Year 1.
• During the Season of Plunder, after the release of Version 6.2.5.3, players noted that Telesto was exhibiting unusual behavior: its weapon model would emit smoke and sparks, and its projectiles would float upwards or bounce around. Holding reload would cause the player to hit the weapon, returning it to its normal appearance and firing mode.
  • On November 9, 2022, the official Destiny 2 Twitter account was taken over by Telesto. The following day, a code was posted which unlocked the Schrödinger's Gun Emblem.
  • Later in the week, Bungie posted a "Telesto’s Week At Bungie" blog post, in which they stated that there were "no puzzles or secrets to be found" regarding Telesto's strange behavior.
