Whether they are machines from the future or giant space turtles, the enemies in Destiny can prove quite dangerous to New Lights and veterans alike. Each enemy presents a unique challenge for players to overcome, which can be from pure, uncompromising damage or unique mechanics. From casting spells to rapid teleports, here are ten of the most powerful enemies you can fight in Destiny 2 . This list will not cover unique bosses from strikes, raids, or Gambit. Champions are fair game since they're rather common in endgame cont

Scathelocke is another Legendary Kinetic Auto Rifle with an adaptive frame and 600 RPM rate of fire. Scathelocke was also brought back from its sunset state in Season of the Lost with new perks. It has an incredible overall stat package, making it arguably the best Auto Rifle in Destiny 2 exotics 2. It feels very similar to how Gnawing Hunger performs. There are many great perks to choose from for this weapon, and, fortunately, its perks are great for PvP, but ultimately it's a phenomenal PvE weapon that all Guardians should have for Grandmaster Nightfalls in Destiny 2 . Like Gnawing Hunger, Scathelocke can be obtained through Legendary world Engrams, Banshee-44, and

Amount: Two Engrams + a specific weapon and armor piece.

Xur is a unique NPC that visits one of three curated locations from Friday to the weekly reset on Tuesday. He always brings an Exotic weapon, one Exotic armor piece for each class, a Fated Engram that grants a non-duplicate Exotic item, and an Exotic Cipher quest . Completing this quest lets you purchase a second non-duplicate Fated Engram or an older Exotic from the Exotic Kiosk in the Tower. Visit Xur every weekend to fill out your Exotic collect

For most players, the two things you want to be doing right now are redeeming Engrams and visiting Ada-1 every day . Engrams have a high chance of unlocking a general armor mod you don't own. Ada-1 is your only source of Combat Style mods from past seasons. Check her stock every day and purchase any Combat Style mods she's selling. If you're short on Mod Components, check out our Mod Components guide to learn how where you can get more of this currency type. Players that own Season of the Chosen, Splicer, and/or Lost should also improve their vendor reputation with each seasonal vendor to unlock Elemental Well mods from the H.E.

SUROS Regime is an Exotic Auto Rifle that has been in Destiny 2 since Year 1, and for good reason. The SUROS Regime has a fast kill time and phenomenal sights, making it one of the best Auto Rifles in Destiny 2. SUROS Regime outshines all other Exotic Auto Rifles, but unfortunately, with so many changes over the past couple of seasons, this weapon has become a sleeper. It's challenging to build the perfect loadout for end-game content and have an Auto Rifle take the Exotic slot when there are a number of Legendary Auto Rifles that are just as, if not more, via

Beyond that, Forest of Echoes has quite a few mid to long-range engagements, so you'll want to consider running Hand Cannons, Pulse Rifles, or even Scout Rifles to deal good damage from a distance. The second beacon is arguably the hardest part of this mission, so consider a crowd control build utilizing Stasis or some defensive subclass for this miss

The most noteworthy aspect of Overload Captains is their affinity for teleporting. Not a second goes by without them teleporting to a distant location, sometimes teleporting directly behind you with no telegraph. Rapid-fire weapons will send any unprepared Guardian into the gr

Destiny 2: Beyond Light introduced Legendary Lost Sectors . Each day, two Lost Sectors are upgraded with a higher difficulty variant—one Legend, the other Master—that includes additional modifiers and Champions. Should you clear a Legend or Master Lost Sector solo, you have a high chance of receiving an Exotic armor piece . These Exotic armor pieces will always drop in a specific armor slot (head, chest, arms, or legs). Master has a higher drop rate than Legend, although Master is much har

Before you decide to ignore this mission for the rest of the week, you'll want to boot up this mission a second time to grab all of the Ascendant Anchors and Trivial Mysteries; it's required for a Seasonal Challenge that ranks up your Wayfinder's Compass. We'll have a guide on where to find all Ascendant Anchors soon. A link to the guide will be added once it's compl

Fortunately, the third beacon is much easier to find than the last. Backtrack to the isolated platform just after the ruins to find a portal . This Taken portal will take you straight to the third beacon. Hop through the portal, then interact with the beacon to start the final defense sect

Season of the Lost gives Auto Rifles an anti-champion mod. When equipped, players can disrupt Barrier Champions. There are many Legendary+ Lost Sectors and Nightfall missions that require this mod. Equipping it on an Auto Rifle ensures that players have both an anti-Champion weapon and a lesser-enemy-clearing weapon. Legendary and above difficulties on any mission prevent Guardians from switching their loadouts, so Auto Rifles have more utility in PvE than most weapons where Barrier Champions are pres
