Updated August 29th, 2024, by Nathan Halsey: Snipers have been given a significant boost in Destiny 2 with the release of The Final Shape, and this list has been updated to reflect that. Not only do many of these new weapons push the envelope in terms of damage, but Bungie has also increased the utility of the weapon type with a particular entry. As a result, Snipers are seeing increased use across the PvE landscape, from Grandmaster Strikes and Raid Encounters to Dungeons and basic Strikes. While they aren't the easiest weapon to use, and often require good intuition with regard to enemy movement, many of these weapons are well worth practice, and won't skimp out on resu

A fallen Servitor, The Warden is a boss incorporated into the Forsaken expansion. The enemy is stubborn and longs for inclusion in the world after being trapped in this strange glowing orb, which is reminiscent of another Bungie creation in 343 Guilty Spark from the Halo ser

The obstacles and landscapes that have to be traversed to get to the Brakion, The Genesis Mind boss battle are representative of the traits of a Gemini. This stage's trickiness and twists and turns are quite unpredictable and mischievous like Geminis are theorized to

Moreover, Sniper Rifles come in a wide range of varieties – from Kinetic variants to more specialized Energy and Power types. Players who want to add a degree of flair to their playing experience can add a Sniper Rifle to their Guardian's arsenal. However, which ones are the b

The Guardians use a powerful ability known as The Light to save the Last City from the darkness of alien habitation. Throughout the course of the game, several monsters confront the Guardians on their quest. Here are the ten most powerful monsters in Destiny 2 , ran

Ros Arago IV is one of those sweet surprises in Destiny 2 , where a World Drop weapon is actually really good. This gun rolls with the incredibly potent combo of Rewind Rounds and Onslaught, with the ability to substitute Rewind Rounds for Subsistence if desired. This makes the gun an absolute beast in low-mid game difficulties because of how fast it can spread Volatile Rounds when at max Onslaught stacks. This makes the Auto Rifle a great pick for Hunters running Gyrfalcon's Hauberk in lower content, allowing for constant application of Volatile Rou

One of the more artistically savvy of the Sniper Rifles in the game, Beloved is easily one of the best Snipers in terms of reliability and consistency. Aside from impressive impact and aim assistance, the rifle also boasts one of the fastest RPMs in the game, making for a quick-hitting Sniper Rifle perfect for skirmis

The Seasons of the Drifter and Opulence added new modes such as the Reckoning and the Menagerie, gave lore-fiends interesting stories to chase, and re-introduced fan-favorite exotic weapons like Outbreak Prime, Bad Juju and The Truth. If it hadn’t been for the broken mess that was "The Revelry" event, these two seasons likely would have gone-off without much issue outside of the usual power and weapon balancing.

Destiny 2 is an online sci-fi multiplayer shooter released by Bungie in 2017. The makers of Halo truly made something special with this video game. The universe players find themselves plunged into in Destiny 2 is still expanding, and a considerable amount of gamers continue to play the online shooter three years after its de

While Precision Frame Auto Rifles haven't always seen the most use in PvE, Prosecutor's perks make it hard to ignore. Not only can it stack damage perks with Dragonfly in the first column, but its second column perks are great for PvE and PvP with Target Lock, Frenzy, and Voltshot. Additionally, this weapon has Rewind Rounds, which can help you secure kills on enemies with more health. Pairing this with Voltshot means that you will be more likely to proc your reloads yourself, and therefore are not only experiencing less downtime with your weapon but have more control over when you proc Volts

Auto Rifles occupy the range between Pulse Rifles and Submachine Guns , bridging the gap between the longer-range and shorter-range options and giving players a safe middle ground to play within. This, paired with their characteristically low recoil, makes them arguably the most versatile primary ammo weapon t

Destiny 2 is now in the midst of the Season of Arrivals, which as itself brought a new dungeon and public event to the game along with near weapons and gear to chase. So far it’s looking like a decent seasonal update and will likely serve as a good prologue to the major expansion, Beyond Light, coming this fall. Bungie has promised great content coming with Beyond Light (including the return of Hawkmoon!) as well as the "vaulting" of locations like Mars and Mercury. Seeing previous paid content get "vaulted" is concerning, but it should be fine so long as it comes back from time to time as has been promised. That issue aside though, the future is once again looking bright for Destiny 2 personal Space 2. Let’s hope it stays that way.
