Thankfully, we’re here to help.

Allied Demand

There’s nothing spectacular about Allied Demand.

Destiny 2 Iron Banner Weapons

Kills will also auto-reload a portion of your magazine, making this a decent choice for add clear.

For more experienced Sidearm mains, pick something else.

It offers a good mix of utility and add management that few LMGs can match.

Destiny 2 Iron Banner Intent Armor Set Featured

As an actual Primary weapon, it falls behind the competition.

Outlaw

Kill Clip

Slideways

Precision Instrument

Keep your eyes peeled for these Trials of Osiris weapon rolls.

Dark Decider

Don’t use this weapon.

Destiny 2 Allied Demand

It has poor base stats, a weak perk pool, and no notable synergies.

Every other weapon in the modern sandbox will serve you better, even other 720 RPM Autos.

The only notable perk here isVoltshot, yet there are no good reload options on this gun.

Destiny 2 Archon’s Thunder-1

Hard pass on this gun.

Skip this archetype until 180 HCs get a rework or a notable change in their TTK profile.

As for PvE, 180s aren’t much better.

Destiny 2 Bite of the Fox Sniper Rifle

Better options exist in this niche, so you might safely skip farming for Frontier’s Cry.

Slug Shotguns can be surprisingly effective from the hip if you getHip-Fire Gripin the first column.

PvE players can pair it withFeeding Frenzyfor fast reloads.

Destiny 2 Claws of the Wolf

As for the Crucible, runZen Momentto mitigate reticle bounce and incoming flinch.

It’s not an amazing SMG, but it gets the job done.

Kills will cause the target to explode, Scorching nearby foes.

Destiny 2 Crimil’s Dagger

Inflict enough Scorch stacks, and all surviving enemies will violently explode for massive damage.

Outlaw ensures you’ll be able to quickly reload between precision kills.

What makes this weapon shine isn’t a perk but rather a buff: Radiant.

Destiny 2 Trials of Osiris Lighthouse

We discourage the use of Iron Reach on this weapon.

While the range bonus is noticeable, the stability penalty makes this weapon incredibly hard to use in duels.

Stick with Kinetic Tremors or another damage perk.

Destiny 2 Dark Decider

Attrition Orbs

Kinetic Tremors

Use these tips to obtain high-stat armor with excellent stat distributions.

And as with all good snipers, this one can getSnapshot SightsandOpening Shotto greatly improve its usability in PvP.

Peacebond

Peacebond has received a perk refresh in Episode: Heresy.

Destiny 2 Forge’s Pledge

Headseeker should help with overall TTK consistency.

It’s a solid workhorse Primary if you’re willing to fight up close.

That’s mostly due to theDiscordperk.

Destiny 2 Frontier’s Cry

Pair it withEye of the Stormfor some absurd accuracy buffs.

PvE players might want to go a similar route, replacing Eye of the Storm withVorpal Weaponfor more damage.

Virtually all other Swords will serve you better; only grab this if you’re a new player.

Blade

Hilt

Riiswalker

It’s difficult to recommend Riiswalker in the current sandbox.

Better Lightweight Shotguns exist and are fully craftable, notably Wastelander from Dares of Eternity.

For PvE, don’t bother.

Fire a rocket, throw a grenade, fire another rocket, reload, and repeat.

If you dislike spamming grenades,Field Prepworks just as well in the first trait column.

Crucible players can ignore this weapon since Rapid-Fire GLs are fairly weak against other players.

Destiny 2 Gunnora’s Axe

Fortunately, Tinasha’s Mastery has an incredible perk pool.

No other Rocket Sidearm can say the same.

you’re free to pair this withSlicefor some added utility, reducing enemy damage output.

Destiny 2 Hero’s Burden

Give it a try if you’re fortunate enough to get this roll.

It remains to be seen if this combination is practical, but consider keeping this roll if it drops.

We generally discourage PvE players from farming this weapon unless you desperately need an Arc Fusion Rifle.

Destiny 2 Jorum’s Claw

Offhand Strike
