Best Destiny 2 Weapons For Episode: Revenant
Anarchy
Episode: Revenant has definitely brought in a grenade launcher meta phase, thanks to the seasonal artifact perk Concussive Reload, which allows GLs to weaken enemies. Anarchy, already a stellar weapon in its own right, truly shines this season due to the synergy with this perk. It excels against bosses and other beefy enemies and provides consistent tick damage, helping clear rooms of adds in no time. If you’re gearing up for raids, this weapon totally deserves a spot in your arsenal.
Sunshot
A regular in meta lineups, this hand cannon remains one of the best Exotic primaries in Destiny 2. It dishes out insane damage, is incredibly easy to handle, and has explosive rounds that make your enemies literally blow up on kills. For Solar builds, Sunshot is a fantastic choice, especially when paired with Ammo Scavenger mods, making sure you’re always stocked and ready to wreak havoc.
Divinity
Divinity has long become a must for any raid loadout. This trace rifle weakens enemies, increasing incoming damage by 15% from all sources, while also creating massive crit spots that make precision shots a breeze. On top of that, it’s extremely effective against Overload Champions. Sure, it got significantly nerfed in The Final Shape, but even in its current form, Divinity remains a top meta choice, tearing through PvE enemies like nobody’s business.
Graviton Lance
Graviton Lance is an incredibly versatile weapon, perfect for both PvP and PvE. This Exotic is very consistent and easy to handle. It fits perfectly into almost any Void build, particularly on Hunters running Gyrfalcon’s Hauberk setups. With the Cosmology perk, this gun makes defeated enemies explode, chaining damage and often leading to quick and satisfying multi-kills. Throw Volatile Rounds to the mix, and you’ll turn this pulse rifle into a room-clearing machine — extremely effective and fun to play.
Ace of Spades
An absolute beast in PvP, Ace of Spades has been a Crucible meta staple for ages. And it’s no surprise why: this hand cannon boasts stellar base stats, grants you a permanent radar, and allows for faster reloads. Add to that its ability to empower your bullets while blowing enemies up on precision kills, and you’ve got a weapon that feels almost too good to be true. But it’s very real — and it’s an essential pick for your PvP loadout.
Wish-Ender
This combat bow is a real gem for high-end content, Grandmaster Nightfalls in particular. Its impeccable accuracy and incredible range let you poke enemies down from a safe distance, and Intrinsic Anti-Barrier makes it a natural choice for taking down Barrier Champions. Wish-Ender can also hit multiple targets with a single arrow, and to top it all off, allows you to pierce enemy shields or even break them if you manage to land a fully charged shot.
Outbreak Perfected
An all-around fantastic weapon, Outbreak Perfected is now even more lethal thanks to The Final Shape’s pulse rifle buff. Hard-hitting and incredibly reliable, this Exotic shines as an absolute PvE beast, especially in Grandmaster Nightfalls, easily stunning Unstoppable Champions with the seasonal Unstoppable Pulse Rifle mod. Its good range lets you pick off targets from afar while parasitic nanites increase damage output, turning your enemies into dust in mere seconds.
Whisper of the Worm
Whisper isn’t your go-to weapon for every situation, but whenever it comes to long, far-back DPS phases, this sniper rifle is simply unmatched. The damage output is just insane, and with the recent sniper rifle buffs, it has now become more consistent than ever. While it does require a steady hand, the payoff is massive — if you can consistently land those precision hits, this gun will absolutely shred through even the toughest enemies.
Conditional Finality
This shotty is a jack-of-all-trades that truly does it all. It can shoot both fire and ice, boasts superb handling and consistent damage, and has the juice to shut down Supers, stun Champions, and even one-shot certain enemies with ease. Its versatility makes it a standout choice for both PvP and PvE and a good fit for lots of Stasis and Solar builds, so go get it if you haven’t already!
Khvostov 7G-0X
Khvostov’s powerful damage output combined with incredible ease of use due to almost zero recoil makes it a real favorite among Guardians. Landing consistent hits is never a problem, and its unique perk that causes every seventh bullet to ricochet allows you to take down multiple enemies with no effort at all. When paired with the Eyes Up, Guardian perk, these ricochet shots deal extra damage, making this auto rifle a deadly tool for practically anything from add clearing to fast-paced PvP battles.
Choir of One
This is a ridiculously powerful weapon that can work as both an auto rifle and a shotgun, making it super versatile and fun to use. When you aim down sights, it shifts into a precision damage machine with a range comparable to a scout rifle. On the other hand, hip-firing deals insane DPS, especially if you can get close enough to avoid damage dropoff. While its ammo reserves have been slightly nerfed, Choir of One still hits like a truck, tearing through regular adds and chunkier foes alike.
Ex Diris
As it is, this Arc grenade launcher doesn’t stand out much compared to its peers, even with seasonal artifact buffs. However, Revenant Act 2 is set to turn it into an absolute powerhouse thanks to the Arc Compounding mod, which boosts damage from Arc sources against blinded enemies. Here’s where Ex Diris really shines: when you land a kill or deal continuous damage, it spawns moths that blind your targets. Pair this with the mod’s damage buff, and you’ve got a very impressive weapon, perfectly slotting into those blind-focused Arc builds for maximum damage.
