That’s not all, however, as there are Umbral Engrams with specific drops to look for this Destiny 2 season, including world drops, specific weapon categories, and Future War Cult weapons. Overall, all the available weapons are pretty good, but there are some that are better to farm than others.

The Best Override And Seasonal Weapons, And The Best Umbral Engrams In Destiny 2
The best weapons to use are Chroma Rush, Ignition Code, Gridskipper, and Sojourner’s Tale from the seasonal set, and the best one from the other Engrams is the Stochastic Variable SMG. There is another weapon that is great to have, but it is exclusive to the Titan class, meaning that Hunters and Warlocks cannot wield it. This is, of course, the Crown Splitter, which is all the rage in the current meta for Destiny 2 due to its insane interaction with a new seasonal mod called Energy Accelerant. This sword can be obtained as a world drop or tailor-farmed by opening the Blades Umbral Engram through the Prismatic Recaster.
Chroma Rush is a solid auto rifle, which can roll with formidable perks like Feeding Frenzy, Rampage, and Wellspring, meaning it can be pretty devastating in PvE especially. Another weapon that feels like a must-have in this meta is Ignition Code thanks to several factors, like the fact that it can drop with Blinding Grenades to apply crowd control, and then perks like Frenzy, Demolitionist, and Ambitious Assassin. The benefits of Breach and Clear cannot be understated either. Gridskipper is very nice for PvE, but it is even better for PvP thanks to its build and to perks like Heating Up, Tunnel Vision, and Multikill Clip.
Sojourner’s Tale is a slug shotgun that can roll with either Surrounded or Frenzy, both strong traits in PvE especially. Stochastic Variable is not a new weapon, but it is relevant in the current meta thanks to it being able to roll Feeding Frenzy, Dragonfly, Multikill Clip, and Wellspring. Then, again, one of the best weapons this Season is Crown Splitter, so Titans who still don’t have one should look for rolls like Thresh and Vorpal Weapon.
Destiny 2 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
