Destiny 2’sfirst episodic content has ten new weapons for Guardians to chase.
Fortunately, this content structure gives you plenty of time to farm for red borders and god rolls.
This guide will go over all ten of the weapons planned to release through Episode: Echoes.
Inflict enough Scorch, and any survivors will violently explode.
It also gives you more reserve ammo to play with.
If you already have a way to speed up your reloads, thenHeal Clipis an S-tier pairing here.
Simply put, this is an S-tier PvE weapon that everyone should farm for once Act 2 launches.
As for PvP, it’s a safe skip.Rocket Sidearms aren’t good in PvP.
Fortunately, you might craft Chronophage withShoot to Lootto collect ammo bricks and Orbs of Power from a distance.
you’re free to pair this withOne for Allfor more damage orDemolitionistfor grenade energy with every kill.
Use any perk in the third column that suits your playstyle.
However, we highly recommend you getFrenzyon this weapon.
Pair it withPerpetual Motionfor a consistent PvE workhorse weapon.
It’s not flashy, but it’ll never let you down.
Crucible is where Corrasion starts to struggle.
It’s not easy to get going, but the payoff is absolutely worth it.
For dueling, use something else.
Faith-Keeper
There’s not much to say about Faith-Keeper.
Most players miss a rocket or two during an intense DPS phase.
With built-in tracking, that will never happen with Faith-Keeper.
As for PvP, runStrategistandDemolitionistto get some free ability energy with each kill.
Beyond that, this is a safe skip.
If you want a good Caster Frame, farm for Ergo Sum instead.
Perfect Fifth + Caster Frame is the strongest single-target DPS roll you could get.
The same is true for PvP.
This is aburst fire, AoE Grenade Launcherin the same vein as Witherhoard.
Each grenade fires five back-to-back radiolarian pools that linger for a few seconds, damaging targets inside.
The damage is also fantastic, especially if you haveAuto-Loading HolsterwithVorpal Weapon.Set it and forget it.
It truly is a Legendary version of Witherhoard.
For comparison, Vorpal Weapon gives 20%.
you might pair this withTriple Tapto ensure you have enough rounds to maximize Lucky Pants' bonus damage.
Crucible players shouldn’t sleep on this gun.
you could pair this withPrecision Instrumentfor easy three taps after your first duel.
Precision Hand Cannons aren’t a popular choice currently, but Sightline Survey might be an exception.
This gun can put in work with the right playstyle.
Incandescent might also count towards Deconstruct procs, but we can’t confirm this.
Firmly Plantedpaired withKilling Tallyis a solid pick for the Crucible.
Pair this with a good Solar build to get the most out of this weapon.
Timeworn Wayfarer is the first lever-action scout to have a red dot sight.
That alone makes this weapon worth trying at least once.
The same is true for PvP.
Stand on an elevated position, get the two tap, then reload to procHeal Clip.
The third column is just as bad, lacking any good reload perks outside ofThreat Detectorand maybeLoose Change.
Your options are mediocre at best.
Shoot to Loot doesnotactivate from Headstone explosions, but it does activate from the gun’s origin trait.
We suggest using this weapon as a discount SMG.Threat DetectorwithSurroundedis a decent combination if you stick to close-range engagements.
If you veer further out into Auto Rifle range, this gun will start to underperform.
