History of Nanotech Tracer Missiles

Overview

Nanotech Tracer Missiles is an Origin Trait on certain Weapons. Landing multiple hits turns the weapon’s next shot into a homing micro-missile; the enhanced version shortens the activation cooldown.

Name

Bungie changed the former name, Nanotech Tracer Rockets, to Nanotech Tracer Missiles in patch 9.1.0 as part of its terminology update for micro-missiles.
