Top 10 Weapons to Use on a Controller in Destiny 2

Fantastic video, Cole! Very informative for us controller players out there

Right on Clanmate. Loving the content

Graviton Lance quickly became my preferred Void weapon for both PvP and PvE. For a 2-burst pulse rifle the weapon feels more like a scout/sniper rifle and the recent changes only made it have a faster fire rate than either. The key to its versatility isn’t just Cosmology, its that combined with Volatile Rounds. In PvP it does massive damage per burst so enemy players are less likely to find cover or retreat before getting killed, and holding down a chokepoint firing on multiple enemies coming in can set off a chain reaction where a killed guardian sets of Cosmology and Volatility which softens up and suppresses the other guardians to make them easier to kill from long range and keep the reaction going for the next that try to push the same spot. As for PvE you can engage a higher-priority enemy and volatility can help ad clear. That makes it viable in close range even if you are getting swarmed. If running Hunter with Forerunner, I strongly recommend a second sidearm (Saraph SI-2 is my preference) and Mechaneer’s Tricksleeves to not only have faster reload and swap, but survive a toe-to-toe engagement with massive damage increase on critical health. Its for an aggressive playstyle that goes well with Iron Banner where mobility and capturing points is vital.

Some excellent tips there mate. Cheers 👍

Nice vid, liked & subbed 👍🏾

Speaking of 120’s, I got a bottom dollar god roll by accident. It’s smallbore/steady-rounds/rangefinder/explosive-payload/range-MW It’s absolutely cracked. Definitely recommend farming for it if you can’t. Gambit really does have awesome weapons (like the borrowed time, for example).

Got a keep away golden tricorn adept igneous hammer last week. Man this is probably the best hand cannon I’ve ever used. I even struggle with timelost fatebringer, but this thing just feels so solid.

Quality upload as always my friend

Not enough people make controller weapon videos in Destiny.

Messenger is also really good, if you manage to get flawless you can xan get some really sick combo perks, sure theres desperado and such, but my favorite roll so far is moving target + Headseeker. Its a monster in pvp and with adept mods you can get the range to 90 and higher. Really solid gun if you manage to go flawless, but irs non adept counterpart is essentially the same.

Rapid hit headseaker on disparity is lovely on controller

Surplus + Headseeker Stars in Shadow is my go to if I’m playing Revenant or Threadrunner

Great video man! Hope you blow up. Love content like this.

Piece of mind I love it

If I’m playing PvP these days, I’ll usually run Duality, though now with having to get the Hawkmoon catalyst, I’m gonna see if PvP has any greater effect on the progress.

Underrated

I’ve always wondered how MIDA doesn’t make these lists? I’ve always felt like it is one of the most consistent weapons in PVP no matter the sandbox. It’s been my favorite PvP weapon since D1.

I don't play pvp very often, but when I play I often use Outbreak

Thanks for the controller tips. What are your controller/video settings for sniping?

Brilliant vid 👍 I can’t hit a barn door with HC or Snipes if I was sat on the handle so I’ll give those a miss. The rest though I’ll try especially Battler. With regards to my HC comment above, do you have any tips for how I can improve my use with them ?
