Destiny: Rising Exotic Weapons List
Exotic Weapons are the pinnacle of ordinance in Destiny: Rising, offering not just unique abilities, but unique visual designs which add a distinct flair to your loadout.
However, unlike in other versions of Destiny, in Destiny: Rising only certain characters can use particular Exotic Weapons, as different characters are locked to specific weapon archetypes, adding a new dimension to both your character building and weapon choices.
Here are all of the Exotic weapons we’ve seen so far in Destiny: Rising, including their Exotic Traits and Perks, as well as how to get your hands on them!
Like in other versions of Destiny, in Destiny: Rising Exotic Weapons are acquired through Exotic Engrams. These are rare rewards dished out for completing end-game content like Heroic Strikes and Heroic Gauntlets.
These activities are recommended for experienced players level 50+, and you’ll need to run them multiple times to get your desired Exotic from the loot pool.
At the launch of the game, you can also get a free Exotic for logging in for 14 days. This gives you a choice between the Borealis Sniper, The Huckleberry SMG and Crimson Hand Cannon. Unlike other versions of Destiny though, your choice will depend more on the characters you have unlocked than which of the Exotics is best, since each of the Guardians in Destiny: Rising can only use one type of Primary and Power weapon.
Alternatively, because Destiny: Rising is also a gacha game, you can acquire a limited few Exotic weapons through bundles in the in-game store.
