Destiny 2’sInto the Light update brought back 12 fan-favorite weapons with a fresh coat of paint.
Here are the best rolls for Destiny 2: Into the Light’s Brave weapons.
Virtually every reprised weapon is an S-tier pick in either PvE or PvP, sometimes both.
God roll recommendations are not included in this list.
For our roll recommendations, check out ourBrave arsenal god rolls guide.
This new version lacks that combination but still has some decent options.
Out of the entire Brave arsenal, Hung Jury is hands-down the worst of the bunch.
10Forbearance
To be clear, the Brave version of Forbearance isn’t a bad weapon.
Season 23 introduced a mechanic where longer cooldown abilities receive less energy from perks and mods.
That, unfortunately, affects Forbearance, significantly reducing the efficacy of this perk combo on most grenade builds.
With that said, a Wave-Frame GL with Demolitionist and Chain Reaction is nothing to scoff at.
This weapon was built to slay adds easily, and it certainly gets the job done here.
Fire a shot, kill a handful of enemies, and restore nearly half of your grenade energy.
The grenade regeneration might be hamstrung currently, but Forbearance is still an S-tier weapon for PvE activities.
Both perks significantly reduce your ADS speed, and Discord allows you to refund ammo on kills.
This version deals Void damage instead of Kinetic, and it lacks the Time Portal mechanic.
But what it lacks in Exotic properties, it makes up for with absurdly powerful perk combinations.
Sunsetting has officially been sunset.
Check your Vault for these long-forgotten weapons.
Repulsor Brace and Desperate Measures are great perks for PvE if you don’t mind using Pulse Rifles.
Not even Messenger feels as good as this weapon.
7Hammerhead
Hammerhead is a stat monster that has only gotten stronger with this reissue.
It isn’t a good single-target DPS weapon, but that’s to be expected from a Machine Gun.
Crucible players can also run with Under Over and Tap the Trigger for the ultimate Heavy weapon.
It’s an excellent Machine Gun that excels in most situations, both in PvE and PvP.
The first trait column can get Vorpal Weapon, Frenzy, and Chain Reaction.
With that said, there’s a good chance Bungie will buff Vortex Frames in the near future.
If they do, be sure to have a god roll tucked away in your Vault.
This weapon will absolutely dominate the Sword meta if it ever gets buffed.
The classic combination of Outlaw and Rampage is back, but far stronger options now exist.
For most PvE players, Firefly and One for All will serve you best.
One for All will then buff Midnight Coup’s damage and your Firefly explosions.
While not the strongest PvP weapon, Midnight Coup is so powerful in PvE that it’s worth chasing.
It’s effectively a stronger version of Fatebringer that can use enhanced perks come Final Shape.
Those explosions can proc your damage perk, making this weapon fantastic for most PvE content.
Pulse Rifles have never been better in Destiny 2.
These are the best of the best for PvE content.
Blast Furnace also excels in the Crucible.
It has a ton of range, is easy to use, and has an incredible perk pool.
Few Pulse Rifles can compete with Blast Furnace, especially when it comes to PvE.
It’s the ultimate Hand Cannon if you value flexibility.
