The grind never stops. Now, the Festival of the Lost is here, bringing a new shotgun. So, let's break down the Arcane Embrace god roll in Destiny 2, and give you tell you what perks you should keep an eye out for both PvE and PvP.

Shotguns tend to become the flavor of the month, or season, in some cases. The Arcane Embrace has a big highlight point in that it will introduce a brand-new archetype: Heavy Burst.

It's definitely one to keep an eye out so here's how to get your very own Arcane Embrace shotgun and its god roll. While you're here, check out the Power Level guide for Episode: Revenant.

How to get Arcane Embrace in Destiny 2

The Arcane Embrace is a shotgun exclusive to Festival of the Lost. The fastest way to earn event rewards is by completing Haunted Lost Sectors as you can get Eerie Engrams that can be focused into Festival of the Lost weapons.

Arcane Embrace is a unique shotgun

So better get to grinding, as the event will roughly last around three to four weeks, with Arcane Embrace going away until next year's Festival of the Lost.

As mentioned, the Arcane Embrace has a unique archetype called Heavy Burst:

  • Fires a hard-hitting, two-round burst. Slightly reduces flinching from incoming fire while aiming

From the perk pool available, it seems the weapon will be built more around PvE with some interesting synergies for solo players due to its Origin Trait, called Search Party:

  • This weapon is granted faster ADS and movement speed while aiming down sights when no allies are near

Here is what we recommend for PvE and PvP.

Arcane Embrace PvE god roll

  • Column 1: Smallbore, Hammer-Forged Rifling
  • Column 2: Accurized Rounds
  • Column 3: Dual Loader, Lone Wolf
  • Column 4: Voltshot, Desperado

Arcane Embrace PvP god roll

  • Column 1: Smallbore, Hammer-Forged Rifling
  • Column 2: Accurized Rounds
  • Column 3: Slideshot, Threat Detector
  • Column 4: Voltshot, Desperado

And that's it. Don't forget we have more gun guides to check out including the Shadow Price god roll and the Aberrant Action sidearm.
