All Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate Artifact mods & best perks

The Edge of Fate, and they’re quite potent, offering both literal and metaphorical power.

The innovative tiered loot system introduced by Edge of Fate will undoubtedly bring a massive shift in the existing gameplay dynamics. However, it’s crucial not to underestimate the significance of the seasonal Artifact as well.

In the world of Edge of Fate, I’ve found myself gravitating towards the Solar, Strand, and Stasis subclasses, as they seem to be receiving the most focus following the Arc and Void-focused Artifact in Episode Heresy. The limited-time buffs have definitely influenced my gameplay choices, and I must say, the perks for these subclasses this time around are nothing short of exceptional!

We’ll soon identify our top choices. First, take a look at the complete list provided.

Best Artifact mods – Implement of Curiosity

In the initial stages of the game “Edge of Fate,” what’s excellent or poor can switch rapidly. Yet, certain mods from this season have such strong synergy with specific subclasses that it seems Bungie designed them to be significant rewards for players who specialize in those classes.

It’s no shock that many top-tier modifications are found in the last column of the Artifact, meaning you’ll need to spend a bit of time leveling up to access and use them. Here’s our initial selection of the most effective mods you might want to focus on first.

Mod
Column
Why It’s Useful
Radiant Shrapnel
5
Enemies defeated while Scorched or you’re Radiant cause causes them to release Solar projectiles that Scorch on impact.

Guaranteed to be an exceptional add-clear perk for any Solar or Prismatic builds. Could be comparable to Heresy’s top-tier Void-based add-clear builds.

Tangled Web
5
Essentially a lesser version of Warlock’s Mataiodoxia Exotic, Tangled Web plays into Strand’s MO of being the best subclass at crowd control.

Depending on whether Edge of Fate has made any changes to the internal Tangle spawn timer, Tangled web will either be top-tier or borderline OP.

Frigid Glare
5
Causes any enemies defeated by Stasis weapons while Frost Armor is active to release a freezing burst.

A long-awaited payoff for maintaining Frost Armor, Frigid Glare will be a must-have for any Stasis build.

Fever and Chill
3
Rapid precision Solar and Stasis weapon hits grant Radiant and Frost Armor, respectively.

While there are methods to gain both buffs without Fever and Chill, this will ensure you’re able to maintain either much more consistently.

Pretty much a must-pick if you plan to run any Solar or Stasis build during Edge of Fate.

Threaded Blast
4
Explosion radius and damage of Tangles are increased when destroyed with Strand damage.

Pairs exceptionally well with Tangled Web and adds some much-needed DPS to Strand’s otherwise CC-focused game plan.

Unstoppable Sidearm and Hand Cannon
1
Assuming Rocket Sidearms maintain their place at the top of the PvE meta in The Edge of Fate, any Champion mods that include the weapon type will be a shoo-in, including this one.
Reciprocal Draw
3
Sort of akin to a Sidearm-specific Bait and Switch, Reciprocal Draw boosts Sidearm damage when scoring rapid kills with any other source of damage.

Expect Rocket Sidearms to continue their dominance of the Special weapon slot if they manage to escape any substantial nerfs.

We’ve covered everything essential about Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate’s Artifact. To assist you in crafting an ideal loadout that complements the information provided, explore the top PvE and PvP weapons available at present.
