Falling Guillotine God Rolls in Destiny 2
Falling Guillotine PvP God Roll
Dominate with this Falling Guillotine PvP god roll and increase your Crucible Ranks in Destiny 2:
- Blade: Enduring Blade
- Ammo Capacity +7, Impact -2
- Guard: Balanced Guard
- Guard Resistance +40, Guard Endurance +40
- Perk 1: Vorpal Weapon
- Bosses, Vehicles, or Guardians with their Super active suffer increased damage from this weapon
- Perk 2: Eager Edge
- Increased Sword Lunge distance immediately after switching to this weapon
- Masterwork: Impact
- Increased weapon damage
Melee weapons like the Falling Guillotine in Destiny 2 have ammo capacity which stops players from spamming the weapon, so the Enduring Blade will ensure you are stocked on ammo. Guarding is your only defense when covering the distance to an enemy so we will need the Balanced Guard to increase our resistance and the amount of damage we can guard.
For the perks, Vorpal Weapon will be the ultimate counter to Guardians that activate their Super, while Eager Edge will help you get that quick lunge kill when switching to the sword after emptying your clip. The Masterwork Impact is really the only one for a Sword and will help with the overall damage you deal.
Falling Guillotine PvE God Roll
Using melee weapons can be especially fun in co-op, so here is the best Falling Guillotine god roll for PvE in Destiny 2:
- Blade: Jagged Edge
- Impact +4, Ammo Capacity -4, Magazine Size -20
- Guard: Swordmaster’s Guard
- Guard Resistance +10, Guard Endurance +40, Charge Time +10
- Perk 1: Frenzy
- Get an increase in damage, handling, and reload speed when you stay in combat for an extended time. Buff lost when out of combat
- Perk 2: Surrounded
- Gain a bonus in damage when in close proximity to three or more enemies
- Masterwork: Impact
- Increased weapon damage
Unlike the god roll to fight guardians, this Falling Guillotine PvE god roll in Destiny 2 focuses on maximizing our damage output with the Jagged Edge which increases our damage at the cost of magazine and ammo capacity. The Swordmaster’s Guard will strengthen our charge attacks and give us some needed guard resistance and endurance.
With the perks, we will go for Frenzy which works exceptionally well in PvE situations giving you an increase in the most important stats as long as you are in combat. Surrounded will further complement our first perk and make sure you can take out those groups of enemies with ease. Masterwork Impact is a must as well for the increased damage output.
How to Get Falling Guillotine in Destiny 2
Participating and completing Onslaught activities rewards you with the Falling Guillotine in Destiny 2. This is a Brave weapon that is guaranteed to drop when you complete at least 10 waves in Onslaught. You can also get additional drops by completing 50 waves of enemies in a single run, but it can be tough without a strong Fireteam.
Alternatively, you can also go to Zavala and increase the drop chance of the Falling Guillotine in Destiny 2 by 60% by using Onslaught Attunement. You can use this to farm any Brave weapons of your choice and increase their drop chances.
