The Guardian Games are back in Destiny 2. This time, they bring a new Arc trace rifle. Let's break down how to get yourself a Keraunios god roll.
Like every year, Guardian Games brings a mix of returning and brand-new toys for players to mess around with. This year is no different, with things such as the Taraxippos scout rifle, The Title SMG, and even the Allstar Vector skimmer making a return.
For diligent players who've been around for previous years, the highlight will be the new Keraunios trace rifle. With this type of weapon receiving plenty of buffs via the Episode: Heresy Artifact, you'll definitely want to consider getting yourself a god roll.
How to get the Keraunios trace rifle
To obtain a Keraunios trace rifle in Destiny 2, you'll need to play Guardian Games activities. New for this year is Rushdown, a boss rush mode featuring bosses from campaigns, seasonal content, and exotic missions.
The Keraunios looks like a beast for PvP
Doing three bosses in a single run guarantees a Guardian Games weapon drop, giving you a chance at obtaining the Keraunios. Alternatively, you can play in the exclusive PvP playlist during the Guardian Games to earn rewards.
The Event Challenges include a guaranteed Keraunios drop as well. Simply earn and deposit a medallion to complete the challenge and earn the weapon, alongside some handy Enhancement Cores.
Finally, completing the first step in the Best in Class quest will give you the Keraunios trace rifle.
Do note you need to equip the Guardian Games class item for rewards to drop (you can also use it as an ornament if you don't want to mess with your stats). If you haven't done it, talk to Eva Levante, and she'll hand you the necessary item, depending on your class.
