The Dawning event has returned to Destiny 2, offering players a chance to bake treats for NPCs and acquire new weapons, including the Mistral Lift Linear Fusion Rifle. This guide explains how to obtain the Mistral Lift and its optimal god roll.
Obtaining the Mistral Lift
The Mistral Lift is a limited-time weapon available only during The Dawning event. To acquire it, you'll need to gather resources from Eva Levante:
- One Gift in Return: Earned by baking Dawning treats and gifting them to NPCs.
- 25 Dawning Spirits: Obtained by completing daily Dawning quests and bounties from Eva Levante.
Eva Levante will exchange these resources for the Mistral Lift directly, or for a Festive Engram (which has a chance to contain the Mistral Lift). You can repeat this process until you get the desired roll.
Mistral Lift God Roll for PvE
While Linear Fusion Rifles aren't always meta in Destiny 2, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, especially for solo players. The recommended god roll is:
Column |
Roll |
Barrel |
Fluted Barrel |
Battery |
Enhanced Battery |
Perk 1 |
Withering Gaze |
Perk 2 |
Bait and Switch |
Masterwork |
Handling |
Why this roll? Withering Gaze debuffs enemies, while Bait and Switch provides a significant damage boost (30%) after aiming down sights for a second. For group play, Envious Assassin could replace Withering Gaze. Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and Handling Masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity.
PvP Performance: The Mistral Lift is not ideal for PvP due to its nature as a Linear Fusion Rifle.
