Cloud Striders also have interesting technology that was never shown apart from Destiny 2’s Exo Stranger’s companion, a fish-like creature. With Lightfall, players will be able to get their hands on another piece of technology from Neomuna – the Quicksilver Storm Exotic auto rifle, which this guide explains how to get early.

How to Unlock Lightfall’s Quicksilver Storm Exotic Auto Rifle
In order to get the Quicksilver Storm Exotic in Destiny 2, players need to preorder the Lightfall expansion, as the item is exclusively coming with the purchase and cannot be unlocked otherwise.
There are three different Lightfall editions that players can purchase, with only two of them coming with the Quicksilver Storm auto rifle in early access. The Destiny 2 Lightfall Standard Edition only includes the base expansion and some additional cosmetic items, and as such, the new Exotic weapon can be obtained exclusively by purchasing the Lightfall + Annual Pass edition or the Collector’s Edition.
It’s important to make a distinction with the Collector’s Edition, however, as it can be purchased with no game code. In that case, Destiny 2 players won’t be obtaining the Lightfall expansion and the Quicksilver Storm auto rifle.
How to Redeem the Quicksilver Storm Exotic Auto Rifle
After purchasing the appropriate Lightfall edition for Destiny 2, players will be able to immediately redeem the Quicksilver Storm Exotic in the game.
This can be done by traveling to the Tower and then talking to Master Rahool, who normally helps players decrypt their Engrams.
Players will be met with an Engram screen if they have leftover Prime or Umbral Engrams, which can be closed to proceed to the regular vendor screen for Master Rahool.
Here, Destiny 2 players will be able to claim the various bonus items from preordering the Lightfall expansion, including the Quicksilver Storm auto rifle.
The weapon will be at 1350 Power Level, but players can infuse other weapons into it as normal.
Redeeming the Quicksilver Storm Exotic auto rifle can be done at any given moment, and all players who preorder Lightfall before its release will be able to get this new exclusive weapon for free with the same method, regardless of the current Season.
Destiny 2 is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
