As Destiny 2's Season of the Wish begins entering its long "quiet period," players are able to complete Riven's Wishes for a chance at some primo gear. Arguably, one of the better options in this loot pool is the Last Wish weapons. But with limited Wish Tokens to spend, which one should you prioritize?
The 6 Last Wish weapons to get in Destiny 2
Each week, players can earn one Wish Token to spend, and the Last Wish Resonance allows players to choose one Red Border Last Wish weapon. This means that in five weeks' time, players can have a crafted version of a raid-exclusive weapon without having to run the raid. This is perfect for those who don't care for the raid for one reason or another.
Chattering Bone - Pulse Rifle
Pulse rifles have always occupied a slot in my inventory, thanks largely to their versatility. Chattering Bone is the embodiment of versatility thanks to its wide variety of perks. Discord and Focused Fury grant absurd amounts of bonus damage so long as you pay attention to weapon swapping. Kill Clip and Kinetic Tremors turn Chattering Bone into an AoE machine. Throw in the Enhanced Perks through crafting, and Chattering Bone becomes the Swiss Army Knife of aggressive solutions.
Age-Old Bond - Void Auto Rifle
Those who have an affinity for all things Void will definitely want to add Age-Old Bond to their rotation. Repulsor Brace and Destabilizing Rounds turn you into a veritable Biotic God as kills create an AoE debuff that feeds a persistent Void Overshield. Want to create explosions instead of a shield? Swap Repulsor Brace for Dragonfly. Void 3.0 turned the subclass into a monster, and Age-Old Bond only feeds on that.
Tyranny of Heaven - Solar Combat Bow
Do you want the equivalent of Ticuu's Divination or Sunshot without having to spend a slot on an Exotic? Slap Dragonfly and Incandescent on this bad boy for explosions that spread Scorch to all the boys in the yard. Want to make bigger and better explosions? That's right, Enhanced Perks, thanks to crafting.
Apex Predator - Solar Rocket Launcher
Apex Predator is the thinking person's rocket launcher. Reconstruction will automatically reload it over time, up to double capacity, while Bait and Switch buffs damage by 35% for 10 seconds after dealing damage with your other two equipped weapons. This turns Apex Predator into a disgusting boss-melting machine.
Fans living dangerously can equip Danger Zone and Explosive Light to increase the damage and radius of explosions while reducing the damage inflicted on themselves. You might not be able to rocket jump in Destiny 2, but you can ensure nothing else will survive the attempt.
Transfiguration - Scout Rifle
Transfiguration allows players to become the deadliest being in the universe for Champions. Enhanced Rewind Rounds and Explosive Payload mean that you don't have to worry about reloading, and with the right Champion Mods, you can keep the pressure on. Those who want a more classical taste can slap on Rampage and Explosive Payload for increased damage and explosions.
Nation of Beasts - Arc Hand Cannon
Hahahahahahahahaha. A Legendary Arc hand cannon that can be crafted with Enhanced Dragonfly and Explosive Payload? If you've been following along, then you're sure to realize that I absolutely love weapons that make things go boom, and boy howdy, does Nation of Beasts make things go boom. Those who want to fully integrate it into an Arc build can swap Explosive Payload for Joltshot and go nuts.
