Season of Dawn represents the tenth season for Destiny 2 and by this point, the game has no shortage of powerful weapons for players to chase after. In fact, every season brings with it new sets of special weapons called Ritual weapons, formerly pinnacle weapons, that are specifically tied to each playlist of Crucible, Strikes, and Gambit. This gear comes with special curated roles and more often than not, they've been outrageously strong including the submachine gun Recluse. With so many weapons in the loot pool, one player has taken it upon themselves to create a new infographic with all of the details.
From the Destiny subReddit, one user named RetroZX0 has combed through every season and created a new infographic image that sorts every pinnacle and ritual weapon currently available inside of Destiny 2. The breakdown sorts weapons by their type: kinetic, energy, and power, as well as the playlist each one is associated with. Better yet, the chart also details the type of ammo each weapon uses as well as any elemental damage as well.
Besides the four available power weapons, both energy and kinetic weapons have been fairly balanced across all three modes as there are seven different weapons that can be obtained. One weapon that isn't included in this list is the Redrix's Claymore, a pulse rifle that players could quest for all the way back in Season 3. Shockingly, less than 9,000 players unlocked the weapon, leading Bungie to retire the gun and replace it with a nearly identical version called Redrix's Broadsword. This addition caused a bit of controversy from players who were under the belief that the Claymore would never again be available. While that was technically true, the Broadsword was a way to work around the original promise and offer it again for players who missed it.
What's interesting in seeing all of the weapons together is the fact that the Crucible has a lot more available weapons than the Vanguard or Gambit weapons. All in all, there are 4 kinetic weapons, 3 energy weapons including the recently nerfed Recluse, and the new Season of Dawn power weapon called the Komodo-4FR. Vanguard Strikes and Gambit are actually fairly balanced with 5 weapons each, though the Buzzard sidearm is actually the first kinetic weapon related to strikes and was added in this current season.
While earn previous pinnacle weapons required a commitment from the player either to grind through various tasks or overcome a challenging task, the reworked ritual weapons are a bit easier to obtain, though they no longer come with exclusive perks. In fact, the Season of Dawn ritual weapons may be the easiest weapons to obtain in the list tasking players with simply playing a certain amount of games or defeating a specific amount of weapons with things like a sidearm, linear fusion rifle, or shotgun.
Destiny 2 is available now for PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
