Destiny 2 King's Fall Weapon Loadouts by Encounter

The Court of Oryx

There's not too much that's mandatory for this encounter. There are two things to consider: add clearing and destroying Taken Walls. Those on door duty will need to get them open quickly, so the fewer shots, the better.

  • Add Clear
    • Assault Rifles
    • SMGs
  • Door Opening
    • Fusion Rifle

The Totems (Basilica)

There are three positions to consider when running the Totems. Guardians will need to be able to drop a Wizard and Knight extremely fast, handle an onslaught of swarming enemies, and drop an Unstoppable Ogre.

  • Ogre
    • Unstoppable Pulse Rifle Mod
    • Pulse Rifle
  • Wizard and Knight
    • Fusion Rifle
    • Glaive
  • Add Clear from Plates
    • LMG

Warpriest

There are two phases for Warpriest, add clear and boss damage. Loadouts are flexible for the add clear, but for big damage on the warpriest, there are only a few options.

  • Add Clear
    • Auto Rifles
    • SMGs
  • Boss Damage

Golgoroth

Golgoroth is going to operate similarly to the Warpriest fight. However, there is a slight twist that can boost damage.

  • Add Clear
    • Auto Rifles
    • SMGs
  • Boss Damage (Gaze)
    • Get a shot in with Tractor Cannon before positioning Golgoroth.
  • Boss Damage (Pit Team)
    • Divinity
    • Linear Fusion Rifle
    • Taipan-4fr

Daughters of Oryx

This fight has a lot of enemies with range being the name of the game. Four Guardians are essentially locked in position and need to be able to fell foes from a distance.

  • Add Clear
    • Pulse Rifles
    • Scout Rifles
  • Boss Damage
    • Divinity
    • Linear Fusion Rifle
    • Taipan-4fr

Oryx, The Taken King

Oryx is a near identical fight to his daughters. You can use the same loadout.

  • Add Clear
    • Pulse Rifles
    • Scout Rifles
  • Boss Damage
    • Divinity
    • Linear Fusion Rifle
    • Taipan-4fr
