Revealed: Unlock Mistral Lift and Its Premium God Roll in Destiny 2
Unlock the Destiny 2 Mistral Lift: A Guide to Obtaining This Linear Fusion Rifle and its God Roll
The Dawning event in Destiny 2 has returned, offering players the chance to bake treats for NPCs and acquire new weapons, including the sought-after Mistral Lift. This guide details how to obtain the Mistral Lift and its optimal god roll.
Acquiring the Mistral Lift
The Mistral Lift is a Linear Fusion Rifle exclusive to Destiny 2's Dawning event, available for a limited time. To obtain it, you'll need to trade with Eva Levante. The exchange requires one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits. Eva also sells Festive Engrams for a Gift and 10 Dawning Spirits, though this method doesn't guarantee the Mistral Lift.
Gifts in Return are earned by baking Dawning treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and gifting them to NPCs. Dawning Spirits are the event's currency, obtained by completing daily Dawning quests and bounties from Eva.
Repeat visits to Eva, exchanging your earned Gifts and Spirits, will eventually yield the Mistral Lift.
The Optimal Mistral Lift God Roll (PvE)
While Linear Fusion Rifles aren't currently meta in Destiny 2 PvP, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, particularly for solo players. The recommended god roll is:
Column | Roll |
---|---|
Barrel | Fluted Barrel |
Battery | Enhanced Battery |
Perk 1 | Withering Gaze |
Perk 2 | Bait and Switch |
Masterwork | Handling |
Withering Gaze and Bait and Switch are key. Withering Gaze debuffs enemies, while Bait and Switch provides a 30% damage boost after aiming down sights for a second. For group play, Envious Assassin could replace Withering Gaze. Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and Handling Masterwork enhance stability and ammo.
PvP Considerations
The Mistral Lift's Linear Fusion Rifle nature limits its PvP effectiveness. However, its PvE performance makes it a valuable addition for solo players.
