Many players are particularly mad at the fact, that Bungie took out the Menagerie weapons, just to recycle them and bring them back again as a major ISP of an update. All the Menagerie weapons are back again in Destiny 2. And with that, my favorite Hand Cannon of all time is also back.
Coming to the main topic, the Austringer is probably the best weapon that Season 17 has to offer, and I think everyone should farm for it. It is a 140 RPM Hand Cannon with the Magazine Size of 11. The weapon is an Adaptive Frame and feels just as crisp as the Palindrome.
Before you start farming the Austringer, it is mandatory to know about the God Rolls for the weapon. Here they are.
Austringer God Roll for PvP
Now, people who would be farming the Austringer, are primarily going to farm for a PvP God Roll. The idea of a God Roll can be different for different people. If you ask me, then a Austringer PvP God Roll should be:
- Barrel: Hammer-Forged Rifling – Gives you a nice +10 Range boost.
- Magazine: Ricochet Rounds – Gives you more Range and +10 Stability.
- Basic Trait #1: Eye of the Storm – This weapon becomes more accurate and boosts handling as your health gets lower.
- Basic Trait #2: Opening Shot – To get more Range and Aim Assist.
- Basic Origin Trait: To Excess – This is a fixed perk. We don’t have a choice here.
- Masterwork: Range – Pretty obvious.
- Mod: Targeting Adjuster – For that +5 Aim Assistance. You can go for Icarus Grip, as well (If you are a monkey, of course).
Just wanted to share this. I finally managed to craft a God Roll Austringer with Enhanced Rangefinder and Enhanced Eye of the Storm. Check out this beast:
Austringer God Roll for PvE
Again, the idea of a God Roll can be different for different people. If you ask me, then a Austringer PvE God Roll should be:
- Barrel: Fluted Barrel – We don’t need much Range in PvE. Handling is the way to go. You get +5 Stability and +15 Handling.
- Magazine: Flared Magwell – You get a nice +15 boost to your Reload Speed.
- Basic Trait #1: Outlaw – Increased Reload Speed on precision final flows could be really handy in PvE.
- Basic Trait #2: Rampage – This is probably the only good PvE trait available for this weapon.
- Basic Origin Trait: To Excess – This is a fixed perk. We don’t have a choice here.
- Masterwork: Hanling/Reload Speed – As I said, we don’t need much Range in PvE.
- Mod: Backup Mag – This will take the Magazine Size to 14.
How to get Austringer in Destiny 2
To get the Austringer in Season 17, you have to unlock the Opulent Weapon Focusing Upgrade on your Crown of Sorrows artifact. Then you can claim as many Austringers as you want if you have enough Umbral Engrams, Opulent Umbral Energy and Legendary Shards.
You can also get Austringer by opening Opulent Chests that are scattered across the Leviathan Derelict. You need Opulent Keys for that, though.
