Of the six new Prophecy weapons either added or reissued one has emerged as the standout option that all Destiny 2 players will want to farm for as soon as possible.
This overhaul saw three new weapons introduced and three old weapons refreshed with both new elements and perks. Given how old some of these the update was welcomed by the community but no one anticipated how powerful these weapons would end up being.
One SMG, in particular, has emerged as aPvE metacandidate thanks to its fantastic perk pool that introduces a top-tier option that hasn’t appeared on a Submachine Gun before.
New Destiny 2 Prophecy SMG features unique top-tier perk
The Prophecy Dungeon now features a new SMG, theAdjudicator. This newly reissued submachine gun is the best weapon the dungeon has to offer thanks to the inclusion of a new perk we’ve never seen on this weapon type before,Onslaught.
Onslaught is a perk that increases fire rate and reload speed by up to 37%. This perk has incredible synergy with a Precision Frame like the Adjudicator, creating an SMG with a fire rate not far off a Lightweight Frame but with far superior damage output.
The Adjudicator PVE God Roll is:
As it’s a Kinetic weapon the Adjudicator deals 10% more damage against unshielded targets. With Onslaught activated this results in DPS comparable to and even exceeding some Trace Rifles, effectively making this a Primary ammo weapon with Special ammo damage potential.
It’s no secret how good Onslaught is with it previously appearing on ameta Void Auto Riflethat has been crowned by many as the best AR in Destiny 2. A big difference though is that weapon is nearly impossible to farm while Adjudicator is available from Prophecy’s Cube encounter and is therefore much easier to get.
