Lord of Wolves

• Decreased starting ammo in PvP from 15 to 10 (PvE unchanged).
• Reduced the burst size (shots fired per trigger pull) from 10 to 5 shots when Release the Wolves is active.
• Reduced the burst delay (the time between bursts) by 60% when Release the Wolves is active.
• Decreased Lord of Wolves base damage by ~20% (now deals 35 per shot to the body in PvP, 44 with Release the Wolves active).
• Increased damage in PvE by 20% to compensate.

Dead Man's Tale

• Changed Cranial Spike's effects:
• Cranial Spike no longer buffs damage vs. players, instead it grants increased reload, aim assist, and range per stack.
• It still grants additional damage vs. PvE combatants.
• Upon reaching max stacks of Cranial Spike, the catalyst will now increase hip-fire RPM by 50 (i.e., it will fire at 180 RPM) but will deal reduced damage per bullet (20% decrease).

Collective Obligation

• Increased Void Leech timer to 15 seconds in PvE activities.
• PVP remains at 10 seconds.
• Removed the cooldown.
• Added a 20% damage bonus against PvE combatants only while Void Leech is active.
• Takes less hits to fully charge Void Leech.
• Kills against debuffed targets instantly charge Void Leech.
• Void Leech is also instantly charged when your character is affected by Void debuffs.
• Does not work if hitting yourself with your own Suppressor Grenade.
• Fixed a bug where Umbral Sustenance was activating with non-Void overshields.

These are all the weapons in Destiny 2 that are getting reworked in Season 18.
