Now that you've seen all the mods in the Edge of Fate artifact, let's take a look at some potential standouts.
What are the best Destiny 2 Edge of Fate artifact mods?
Obviously, this is all mere theory-crafting at this point, but some solid highlights include a neat Fever and Chill and Radiant Shrapnel combo, for starters.
With Fever and Chill, you can prog Radiant by dealing continuous damage. If you're doing Nightfalls, you can pick up the Overload Rapid Fire mod to help deal with Overload Champions. Once you're Radiant, Radiant Shrapnel will make it rain fire (literally) on your enemies with constant Solar projectiles that apply Scorch.
Once we get to play around with some unique builds we'll definitely be expanding this section with more fun ideas for you to mess around with.
