Destiny 2’syearly expansions focus heavily on adding depth to its various systems.
Here are the ten best perks you might find in Destiny 2.
10Rapid Hit
Rapid Hit:Rapid precision hits temporarily increase stability and reload speed.
You’ll be able to out duel just about every Guardian if you have enough stacks of this perk.
This perk is incredibly powerful on Primaries, as Bungie removed Primary ammo altogether in Season of the Lost.
Interestingly, this perk has also started to appear on Special and Heavy weapons.
It can currently roll on Corrective Measure, a Heavy Machine Gun from the Vault of Glass raid.
8Incandescent
Incandescent:Defeating a target spreads scorch to those nearby.
More powerful combatants and opposing Guardians cause scorch in a larger radius.
Whenever you kill someone, they’ll explode and deal a small amount of damage to nearby enemies.
Kill four enemies close to one another, and all nearby targets will violently explode, dealing massive damage.
It’s absurdly strong in PvE and has some great utility in PvP.
Primary weapons benefit greatly from the extra reload speed.
For PvP, you’re better off with Kill Clip or another damage perk.
It’s effectively an Arc-themed version of Kill Clip, yet that comparison doesn’t do Voltshot justice.
For non-GM content, red bars disintegrate while majors take some serious damage.
5Headstone
Headstone:Precision final blows spawn a Stasis crystal at the victim’s location.
That alone sounds underwhelming, but this perk has some fantastic synergies with Stasis Aspects and Fragments.
It’s S-tier for Stasis builds in all content, PvE and PvP.
4Overflow
Overflow:Picking up Special or Heavy ammo reloads this weapon to beyond normal capacity.
Since Special bricks are plentiful in PvP, this perk is useful in both environments.
Having a weapon with twice the magazine size is amazing in most situations.
Keep an eye out for this perk on any guns you obtain.
Increased projectile velocity while aiming Rocket Launchers, Grenade Launchers, and Bows.
If you mostly play PvE content or use projectile weapons, Rangefinder is mediocre at best.
For PvP players, it’s a different story.
Rangefinder greatly increases the effective range of your weapon by enhancing its zoom stat.
In Destiny 2’s Crucible, range is everything.
If you ever find a hitscan weapon that can roll with Rangefinder, take it for a spin.
You might be surprised how consistent it is.
2Kill Clip
Kill Clip:Reloading after a kill grants increased damage.
Reloading after you kill someone will grant a 33% damage boost for five seconds.
1Explosive Payload
Explosive Payload:Projectiles create an area-of-effect detonation on impact.
On the surface, Explosive Payload looks like a lackluster perk.
In practice, it’s a great PvE perk and arguably overpowered inside the Crucible.
You’re going to have a hard time finding a better PvP perk than this one.
