What works in PvE is not always what is optimal in PvP in Destiny 2 . There is some crossover, but ultimately, the two arenas require their own builds and loadouts. PvP is more about surviving and seizing opportunities by picking off players when it is safe to engage. There are ways to achieve this through more aggressive playstyles, but the core concept rema
Pull the weapon out, get a melee kill to get five stacks of Swashbuckler immediately for a hefty damage buff, and go to town with this fusion rifle. For the purposes of Destiny 2 PvE , Swashbuckler is going to be more useful for Glacioclasm, as the damage bonus stacks can be gained with a single melee kill.

Like any good shared world experience, **Destiny 2 ** has brought back a seasonal event to give players some festive bounties, cosmetic items, and weapons to perk up their holidays. Titled The Dawning, the event is scheduled to conclude on January 5, 2021. While most of the new expansion, Beyond Light, has been ominous with the focus on Darkness and the new Stasis subclass, The Dawning offers a reprieve from the constant snuffing of the Li
With the extended range provided by Hammer-Forged Rifling or Smallbore, and the increased magazine capacity from Enhanced Battery, players will be able to rack up kills at a decent distance and rarely need to reload. This gives them more uptime on more powerful enemies and, thus, increases their damage output. Couple this philosophy with the final potential perk, Swashbuckler (not Rampage), and Glacioclasm becomes a nasty addition to Guardians’ arse
