The curtain on Destiny 2: The Final Shape’s suite of Exotic armors has fully lifted, and there’salready a runaway winneras far as the community is concerned.
Courtesy of YouTuber Fallout Plays’ breakdown, Hazardous Propulsion’s unique perk, Danger Close, is as follows:
“Weapon precision hits or final blows have a chance to load a Kinetic Exodus rocket. Activating your class ability fires loaded Exodus rockets. Damaging targets with Exodus rockets temporarily increases the damage you deal with all other rockets.”
In their overview of the armor, Fallout provided some revelations that, assuming they persist to the live game whenThe Final Shapelaunches, will push Hazardous Propulsion into the realms of top-tier.
Fundamentally, the catalyst for tipping the scales is Enhanced Rockets. Upon using the Titan Class Ability with all six rockets loaded, a 35% damage buff for all rocket-based damage will trigger and persist for 10 seconds.
Pairing this buff with a craftedApex Predatoror any other meta Rocket Launcher will allow Titans to dish out hefty DPS swiftly. Exactly what you want duringRaid bossencounters, where damage windows are often short, favoring burst damage over sustained fire.

Couple the above with other weapons that fall under the purview of rocket damage and Hazardous Propulsion could become a staple of numerous builds. Fallout mentions that another hands-on participant witnessed the buff affecting Rocket Sidearms.
If the same applies toMountaintopand Grand Overture, Titans will be eating well when The Final Shape rolls out on June 4.
