Weapons that are useful

Primary weapons
SMG
These are very good this season for general short range ad-clear. This season they have anti-barrier
rounds which stagger enemies so that they cannot shoot back.

Best weapons in this category

 Ikelos SMG
o Energy Arc
o World drop
o Use this with warmind cells for the ultimate ad-clear weapon
o God Roll for this would be threat detector and surrounded/demolishonist
 Escape Velocity
o Kinetic
o World drop
o Good for general ad-clear, not as good as Ikelos, but as the raid uses a lot of special
in the energy slot this is a good substitute
o God roll for this would be Overflow and Vorpal
 Friction Fire
o Kinetic
o Season of the hunt Seasonal weapon
o Haven’t tried it out myself yet but have only heard good things
o God roll for this would be threat detector and Rampage/Wellspring
 Seventh Sereph SMG
o Energy Arc
o World drop
o Hasn’t got a big perk pool so it is easy to get the roll you are looking for.
o This weapon can use warmind cells so insane ad-clear
o God roll for this one would be Fourth times the Charm and Dragonfly,

Pulse Rifles
These are good for longer range ad-clear and are a good option for the longer range encounters like
Atraks-1 and Taniks.
Best weapons in this category
 Hailing Confusion
o Kinetic
o Europa Weapons quest
o One of the newest pulse in the game, has some very interesting rolls.
o God roll for this weapon would be Surplus Wellspring
 Infinity abilities lol
 Stars in Shadow
o Energy Solar
o Crucible drop
o Good luck getting a good roll on this weapon. The perk tree is insanely huge
o Surplus, killing wind or Outlaw are good rolls for first perk
o For the second perk get Thresh, Vorpal or Dragonfly
 Cold denial
o Kinetic
o World Drop
o Haven’t really got a good place in PvE. So leave it in PvP
o But if you want to bring it get a Feeding Frenzy Swashbuckler
 Not got enough Experience with pulses in PvE to say anything more, if you got another Pulse
that is good in PvE feel free to bring that.

Overload
The first encounter has overload champions. This means scouts are a must as the auto rifle is not
reliable as an anti overload weapon. If you don’t wanna use a scout just dunk on them with a sword
lol.

Best weapons in this category

 Night Watch
o Kinetic
o World drop(I think?)
o A very good 150 RPM scout
o God roll for this role would be Rapid hit Explosive payload
 Transfiguration
o Kinetic
o Last wish
o Possibly the best 150 RPM scout in the game in general use. But it cannot drop with
explosive so not as good as night watch in the overload department
o God roll for this would be Rampage and kill clip
 Royal Chase
o Energy Void
o Seasonal weapon
o 180 RPM scout which is the worst archetype in the game. But currently the only
energy scout in the game so if you want a energy scout this is for you
o God roll for this one would be Full Auto and Thresh/Dragonfly

Exotics
Trinity Ghoul
 The only notable ad-clear exotic worth bringing
  But get an exotic heavy instead of a primary exotic if you don’t have to have that extra ad-
clear.

Special Weapons
Slug Shotguns
Holy shit guys is this the raid of the slug shotgun. It has a place in almost every encounter. From
killing servitors in the first and second to boss dps in the last one.

To use slugs to their maximum extent you need to reload cancel when your ammo runs out. To do
this you mash fire and reload at almost the same time to skip lots of the reload animation

Best weapons in this category

 Chaperone
o Kinetic
o Quest Exotic
o Got insane range, which is good for the final encounter
o If you are not running anarchy on the final encounter use this instead.
 Heritage
o Kinetic
o Deep stone Crypt drop
o The only non-exotic kinetic slug in the game. So if you have it and want to use
anarchy get this instead on Chaperone
o The weapon is not in the API for third party websites so I can’t check the rolls yet
o BUT Reconstruction is an insane perk for dps so if you get one with that KEEP it
 First in last out
o Energy Arc
o World Drop
o Combined with anarchy it is the king of DPS
o God roll would be autoloading with vorpal
 Bonechiller
o Energy Void
o Europa Weapon Quest
o The new Europa slug is a contender for best dps with FILO but it is harder to get your
max dps
o God rolls for this would be
 Autoloading/triple tap and One for all
 Tripple tap and Demolishonist
 Duality
o Energy Solar
o Seasonal Exotic season of the Hunt
o Haven’t seen it tried in the raid, but should work very good with the on Black wings
buff.

Sniper
Snipers are a good alternative to slugs in most encounters. They deal lots of damage and are the
second best option for Taniks. They are the hands down the best for Taniks last stand. But the
encounters are mostly close range so it isn’t as perfect as it could be
Best weapons in this category
 Long Shadow
o Kinetic
o World Drop
o 90 RPM
o As a 90 RPM it has a higher total damage than 140 rpm but with higher burst damage
o This is the best 90 RPM with the God Roll
o God Roll would be Rapid hit and Triple Tap
 Adored
o Energy Arc
o Ritual weapon
o 90 RPM
o It has the same archetype as long shadow but with fixed rolls. With similar damage
numbers
o For PvE Use triple tap and Vorpal
 Ikelos SR
o Energy Solar
o World Drop
o 140 RPM
o As a 140 RPM it is of the sniper archetype with the highest total damage in the game.
And with the god roll it is the best 140
o God roll is Fourth Times the Charm with High Impact Reserves
 The Supremacy
o Kinetic
o Last Wish weapon
o Not as good as the Ikelos but still a good SR with a small but good perk pool
o Look for a roll with triple tap. First trait doesn’t matter as much as all are good.
 Izanagi
o Exotic from the kiosk
o On the final encounter it is very good, can be used if you are not using anarchy or
Chaperone.

Heavy
Swords
Swords are king in this raid. They are used for everything between ad-clear and boss dps. There are
really only two swords to speak of, the Lament and Guillotine.

 Lament
o Quest Exotic
o Lament is used in the second encounter to deal massive dps to the boss.
o To use it correctly rev the blade, do three light attacks. Then do a heavy
 Guillotine
o World Drop
o Used for general ad-clear
o 5 light attacks then heavy
o God roll, Jagged edge, Swordmaster, Relentless, Whirlwind
Other Exotics
There are a bunch of other exotics that have their place in this raid you should bring

 Anarchy
o Kiosk Exotic
o This one is used for dps and ad-clear on the final encounter
o Shoot two times then switch to another weapon
o When that weapon need to reload switch back to anarchy
 Xenophage
o Quest Exotic
o Use this one to destroy coolant in the first encounter
o After the first encounter send it to the Vault
 1 thousand Voices
o Last Wish Exotic
o Also only used on the first encounter to destroy coolant
o Send this one to the vault after this
 Heir Apparent
o Unobtainable Exotic
o Use it to destroy coolant. Not as good as the other options
o Send it to the Vault after this
