The BRAVE Arsenal has arrived in Destiny 2, bringing back a dozen fan-favorite weapons with a fresh look and exciting new perks. This guide will tell you everything you need to know about these returning classics, including how to add them to your arsenal.
What’s in the Destiny 2 BRAVE Arsenal?
This arsenal boasts 12 weapons spanning Destiny 2’s history:
- Forbearance (Wave Frame Grenade Launcher)
- Succession (Sniper Rifle)
- Falling Guillotine (Sword)
- The Recluse (Submachine Gun)
- The Mountaintop (Breech Grenade Launcher) (adjusted to prevent Crucible domination)
- Hammerhead (Machine Gun)
- Blast Furnace (Pulse Rifle)
- Edge Transit (Heavy Grenade Launcher)
- Luna’s Howl (Hand Cannon)
- Midnight Coup (Hand Cannon)
- Hung Jury SR4 (Scout Rifle)
- Elsie’s Rifle (formerly The Stranger’s Rifle) (Pulse Rifle)
These weapons come from various sources, including Destiny 1, Nightfall rewards, Raids, and the Black Armory. Each features the BRAVE Arsenal design and the “Indomitability” origin trait.
How to Get BRAVE Arsenal Weapons
There are two main ways to acquire these revamped classics:
- Onslaught: Participate in this new horde mode activity. Every tenth wave rewards a chest containing at least one BRAVE weapon.
- Arcite’s Quests: After logging in with the Into the Light expansion, complete a short quest for Lord Shaxx to begin collecting these weapons. Shaxx will introduce you to Arcite, who has a dedicated quest for each BRAVE Arsenal weapon.
Completing Arcite’s quests grants you a curated roll (a pre-determined set of perks) of that weapon with a unique color scheme. These curated rolls are strong contenders, though not necessarily the absolute best possible combinations (god rolls).
Curated Rolls and Limited Editions
If you’re on the hunt for god rolls, completing Arcite’s quests is the first step. These quests typically involve defeating enemies with similar weapon types. Once you’ve finished a weapon’s quest, attune to it at its corresponding hologram in the Hall of Champions. Attuning increases your chances of acquiring that specific weapon from Onslaught chests.
The curated rolls come with a special limited-edition skin, a highly sought-after cosmetic option. These limited editions can even boast double perks in the third and fourth perk columns, making them incredibly desirable. However, these exclusive skins are only available until the launch of The Final Shape expansion, so don’t miss your chance to snag them!
So, Guardians, assemble your fireteams and jump into Destiny 2 to reacquaint yourselves with these classic weapons reborn. With the BRAVE Arsenal at your disposal, you’ll be ready to conquer any challenge that comes your way.
