Destiny 2 dungeons offer unique Exotic weapons as pinnacle rewards, each possessing distinct characteristics and acquisition methods. These are highly coveted for their power and unique gameplay mechanics.
Pit of Heresy - Xenophage
Weapon Type: Heavy Machine Gun (Solar)
Perk Snapshot: Fires high-powered, explosive rounds. Xenophage does not land precision hits but has high base damage, making it effective against large targets and for burst damage.
Acquisition: Obtained by completing a hidden multi-stage Exotic quest that begins on the Moon and involves several puzzles within the Pit of Heresy dungeon. This is a guaranteed reward upon quest completion, not a random drop.
Grasp of Avarice - Gjallarhorn
Weapon Type: Heavy Rocket Launcher (Solar)
Perk Snapshot: Its signature perk, Wolfpack Rounds, causes rockets to split into tracking cluster missiles upon detonation. Firing Gjallarhorn also grants Wolfpack Rounds to nearby allies wielding non-Exotic Rocket Launchers.
Acquisition: Rewarded for completing the "And Out Fly The Wolves" Exotic quest. This quest is available to players who own the Bungie 30th Anniversary Pack and involves progressing through the Grasp of Avarice dungeon.
Duality - Heartshadow
Weapon Type: Power Sword (Void)
Perk Snapshot: Heavy attacks make the wielder invisible and unleash a volley of exploding Void projectiles. Damaging targets with these projectiles weakens them, increasing damage taken.
Acquisition: A potential random drop from defeating Nightmare of Caiatl, the final encounter of the Duality dungeon. Certain Triumphs associated with the Duality dungeon can be completed to increase the drop chance.
Spire of the Watcher - Hierarchy of Needs
Weapon Type: Power Combat Bow (Solar)
Perk Snapshot: Precision hits or final blows build stacks of Guidance Ring. When fully charged, hip-firing deploys a Guidance Ring that locks onto targets and fires a volley of seeking projectiles. Arrows fired through an active Guidance Ring gain increased damage and improved tracking.
Acquisition: A potential random drop from defeating Persys, Primordial Ruin, the final boss of the Spire of the Watcher dungeon. Completing specific Triumphs within the dungeon can increase its drop probability.
Ghosts of the Deep - The Navigator
Weapon Type: Special Trace Rifle (Strand)
Perk Snapshot: Firing the weapon at an ally grants them Woven Mail (damage resistance). Firing at an enemy severs them (reducing their outgoing damage and creating a Tangle on kill). The wielder also gains Woven Mail when an ally is granted it by The Navigator.
Acquisition: A potential random drop from defeating Šimmumah ur-Nokru, Lucent Necromancer, the final boss of the Ghosts of the Deep dungeon. Certain associated Triumphs can be completed to enhance the drop rate.
Warlord's Ruin - Buried Bloodline
Weapon Type: Special Sidearm (Void)
Perk Snapshot: Fires a two-round burst of homing projectiles. Landing multiple bolts grants the Devour buff (restores health and grenade energy on kills). While Devour is active, Buried Bloodline weakens targets on hit.
Acquisition: A potential random drop from defeating Hefnd's Vengeance, Blighted Chimera, the final encounter of the Warlord's Ruin dungeon. Completing specific Triumphs tied to this dungeon can increase its drop chance.
