The Wayfinder’s Compass—the vendor, not the Artifact—has 21 upgrades you can purchase for Parallax Trajectories. Most of these upgrades can be purchased right off the bat if you have enough Parralax Trajectories. Some of the upgrades will require that you complete certain steps of the Wayfinder’s Voyage quest. By the time you’re done with that quest, you’ll be able to purchase all 21 upgrades. Remember: there’s a Parralax Trajectory cap. Be sure to spend this currency whenever you

The Last Word is another Exotic Hand Cannon , except this weapon is obtainable from the Exotic Archive kiosk in the Tower. This unique weapon is a Kinetic Hand Cannon that fires off 225 RPM as the only automatic Hand Cannon in Destiny 2. It’s a particularly great choice for PvP because of its high damage, rate of fire, and easy-to-control recoil direction when firing from the hip. The Last Word can be fired while aiming down sights, but the problem is that this weapon becomes increasingly inaccurate if it isn’t hip-fi

Arbalest was added in the Season of the Drifter in the Year 2 of Destiny 2. This is a linear fusion rifle that is very good at taking the enemy’s shields down. Pro players know a lot about the game , but even they often forget that this gun has been taken off of the Season Pass and can be bought by free-to-play gam

Grandmaster Nightfalls use a Knockout system, similar to how standard mods work. Every GM Nightfall has a chance of granting an Adept mod , and there isn’t a limit on how many Adept mods you can earn this way each week. Every Adept mod, excluding those found from Trials, can be obtained from this activ

Atlas Skews are collectible items that are tied to the Ager’s Scepter Exotic quest. You can start this quest by interacting with the Wayfinder’s Compass at the H.E.L.M. and grabbing the “Tracing the Stars” quest.

Legendary Astral Alignment sets the enemies to 1,320 Power, disables matchmaking, and adds Nightfall modifiers like Match Game. Get a fireteam together before tackling this ; soloing this mission is incredibly difficult. So long as you’re near 1,320 Power, the mission itself won’t play much differently from normal Astral Alignment. If you need loadout advice or a refresher on each encounter, give our Astral Alignment guide a l

Sunshot’s exotic intrinsic perk is called “Sunburn,” and it allows Sunshot to fire explosive rounds and highlight the targets that take damage. “Sun Blast” is a unique perk to Sunshot as well, granting this weapon the ability to create solar energy explosions after defeating an enemy. In PvP, Sunshot excels for both having a 150 RPM rate of fire and being able to take advantage of enemies standing close to one another, something commonly encountered even in Trials of Osi

This submachine gun was also released in the Warmind expansion back in 2018. The Huckleberry is a kinetic SMG with the rounds per minute of 750. Players preparing for The Deep Stone Crypt raid will be revisiting areas New Light players have access to in order to nab this bea

Acasia’s Dejection is yet another Solar trace rifle option, available from the Root of Nightmares raid. With the right setup, this weapon feels like a legendary Prometheus Lens, freeing up an exotic slot for something more powerful.
