Every gun in Destiny is good. But some are more good than others. Today, we are going over every single archetype in every single slot, listing out what I (and my community) believe to be the best guns that you can possibly get.

  • Now I can dismantle all the weapons not listed in this video! Thank you Datto 🙏
  • @Aloysius4126
    Shoutout to Chain of Command machine gun for having that unique perk combo of osmosis and demolitionist. No painful grind to get being a ritual weapon and has the flexibility to match the burn of whatever subclass you're running. Really great on grenade focused builds. Bit more of a jack-of-all-trades master-of-none but I love it for its flexibility.
  • @SunSun-sk4si
    I feel like Lingering Dread should've gotten a mention for kinetic slot GLs. The combination of disorienting grenades plus chill clip makes it a fantastic multi-purpose tool for general crowd control, being able to both disable groups of adds and shut down 2/3 champions in the game, and being able to pair that with either auto-loading for more fluid disorienting nades or ambitious assassin for faster freezes against unstoppables puts it above Ignition Code's slide-spam imo.
  • This is literally what I’ve been waiting for. I’ve been looking for a list of stuff to grind
  • @tslo1808
    small note on Commemoration: using extended mag, enhanced subsistence and enhanced killing tally gives you 75 in the mag and 16 back per kill, and generally machine guns being used in ad dense areas means you'll literally never reload it. Most red bars, even in high end master content, die in between 2-4 bullets.
  • Chain of Command is a really good machine gun pick for those stasis hunter still trying to use Renewal, and is a amazing pairing for osmiomancy warlocks
  • Would be cool for an exotic 'tier list' for each slot too (kinetic/energy/heavy). Helluva video! Love it!
  • @vitela2745
    I finally have on opinion on legendary weapons, thank you Datto
  • @samvimes9510
    FYI, Deafening Whisper is sometimes in the Dares of Eternity loot pool. Xur also sells it occasionally.
  • @HexenHowll
    Chain of Command came out of left field to be my most used heavy this season with a stasis turret build. Every LMG kill buffs the gun with adrenaline junkie and demo gives you a chunk of grenade energy. Right when the mag is empty you throw a turret down and you never have to reload. Throw some stasis surge mods on and it becomes a monster in only a few seconds of firing 10/10
  • @MrTmm97
    15:41 I’m surprised Glaciocasm with Subsistence/Slideshot+Resivoir Burst was not close to top spot. However I think as more people get this season’s Iterative Loop with compulsive reloader and voltshot and Royal Executioner with envious assassin and reservoir burst crafted they will become much more common. Ehroar did a video on both and Iterative Loop being rapid fire and having voltshot has very high dps for a special weapon while being great at ad clear while envious assassin on Royal Executioner can give you reservoir burst on 10+ shots straight. People should craft them and give them a shot Great video Datto as usual.
  • @wetpigeon
    The OG summoner with Rangefinder/Zen moment is the king of the energy slot for pvp for me. Unfortunately I don’t think you can get those perks on it anymore Update: you CAN still get rangefinder but not Zen moment which is insane rn
  • If only Wish-Ender and the Ikelos SMG didn’t do everything already…
  • I do think that cry mutiny often gets overlooked, but otherwise a very solid list.
  • @theslimeboitm
    tbh im just happy that so many of these come from different sources. really starting to feel like a real mmo
  • Sweet Sorrow with One For All is the most satisfying weapon I've used in the game. The rate of fire, the sound, the recoil and the sights are just chef's kiss
  • I would love to see an exotic list later to see what you think of the exotic space
  • @Contractor815
    Thank you for acknowledging The Last Breath. That gun has been a staple of my endgame activities ever since I got my Demo/Frenzy roll. Almost up to 2000 kills now.
  • @Rothryn
    Perses-D with Rapid Hit/Headstone is pretty much my go-to for kinetic slot Scouts. The Hakke origin trait allows it to shatter the stasis crystals it generates quite quickly, plus the stasis crystals freeze targets around it. Quite fun for regular PvE stuff.
  • I have wanted a video like this for so, so, so long as someone getting into D2 after many many years and not knowing anything. Have loved your content since D1, thank you so much as always Datto.
