As a seasoned Destiny 2 veteran with countless hours spent in the cosmos, I can confidently say that this week’s Nightfall challenge is both exhilarating and daunting, much like my first encounter with the Vex Minds. The Oscillation modifier, while not everyone’s cup of tea, presents an opportunity for those who dare to embrace it – a DPS boost if used correctly.

The Revision Zero Exotic seems tailor-made for this challenge, its precision hits charging Hunter’s Trace with ease, even when damage is reduced. Pair that with the boost from the artifact and you’ve got a recipe for some serious damage output. And let’s not forget about those stun-inducing special rounds against Barrier Champions. It’s like a cosmic dance of destruction!

The god roll for Revision Zero, with Arrowhead Brake, Ricochet Rounds, Vorpal Weapon, 4-Timer Refit, and Composite Stock, is a testament to Bungie’s understanding of what makes their players tick. The stability, damage output, and perks are all finely tuned to create a weapon that can take down even the toughest enemies with ease.

Now, if only I could find a way to craft it without spending an eternity in Operation Seraph’s Shield… But hey, at least I have plenty of time to perfect my cosmic dance moves while I wait! And remember, when it comes to Destiny 2, sometimes the grind is half the fun – or all of it, depending on who you ask. So, let’s get out there and show those Nightfall enemies what we’re made of! May the Light be with us all.

P.S. If I had a dollar for every time I wished I could just buy Destiny 2 gear from Xur… Well, I’d have enough Silver to buy a lot more Exotics than Revision Zero!

This week, Destiny 2 gamers have an opportunity to collect twice the usual Nightfall rewards and advance their Vanguard rank faster. However, achieving this requires overcoming the contentious Oscillation modifier. Fortunately, one Exotic item simplifies the process sufficiently.

In the latest episode, Revenant, I stumbled upon a fresh gameplay tweak called Oscillation in Vanguard activities. This bad boy amps up my firepower when I keep rotating between specific weapons. But if I stick to one gun for too long, it’s the damage that starts dwindling instead.

Though Oscillation hasn’t been widely liked by players, it does offer a DPS (Damage Per Second) increase if used correctly. A weapon particularly effective for utilizing this modifier is Revision Zero, as Hunter’s Trace charges on accurate hits rather than final kills. This makes it simpler to charge up with reduced damage since you’ll be able to land more precise shots rapidly.

When the Hunter’s Trace is all set, you can trigger it to equip powerful ammo that penetrates shields. These bullets pack a real punch when enhanced by Oscillation and have the ability to stagger Barrier Champions, who are quite prevalent in this week’s Nightfall mission.

Additionally, Pulse Rifles are shown on Revenant’s artifact, increasing their firepower by an additional 25%. When combined with Oscillation, Unstoppable Pulse Rifle, Vorpal Weapon, and Kinetic Weapon Surge, this equates to four lethal shots capable of inflicting a grand total exceeding one million damage. The most advantageous aspect is that this powerful attack can be swiftly recharged and used repeatedly against tougher foes whenever necessary.

Revision Zero god roll – Meta analysis

  • Barrel: Arrowhead Brake
  • Magazine: Ricochet Rounds
  • Exotic Perk: Vorpal Weapon
  • Catalyst: 4-Timer Refit
  • Stock: Composite Stock

When designing Revision Zero, your aim is to optimize its steadiness and potency. For stability, you can achieve this by pairing Arrowhead Brake with Ricochet Rounds and a Composite Stock. This setup minimizes the gun’s recoil significantly, perfect for firing numerous precise shots in quick succession.

Regarding benefits, the Vorpal Weapon significantly increases damage by 20% when attacking bosses. Pairing it with Hunter’s Trace can maximize its potential, making it a crucial choice. It’s recommended to use this in conjunction with the 4-Timer Refit, which functions similarly to Fourth Time’s the Charm, minimizing the frequency of reloading.

To create Revision Zero, you should gather its blueprint by finishing one round of Operation Seraph’s Shield on the Normal setting initially. Obtaining the blueprint happens automatically upon completion, while the catalyst can be acquired by successfully completing a subsequent run on Expert mode.

I regret to inform you that if you haven’t mastered crafting Revision Zero yet, you won’t get a chance to utilize it during this Game Master (GM), as Operation Seraph’s Shield isn’t our highlighted Exotic mission this week. To ensure you don’t miss out next time, remember to keep an eye on the Exotic Mission Rotation and complete the quest when it becomes available.
