For the first time, Trials of Osiris is here in Destiny 2 Season of Plunder and players have a chance of getting two new weapons. While gear from Trials is quite effective in PvP, some have set a distinct meta in both game modes. The new Shotgun and the Bow are no different.
There are two weapons that have been added to the Trials of Osiris loot pool namely, The Inquisitor Shotgun and Whistler's Whim Bow. This article talks more on the former, as the new Precision Slug Shotgun is making the news due to several reasons.
Know the best perk combination on The Inquisitor Shotgun for Destiny 2 PvP and PvE (2022):
1. Usage and how to get
The Inquisitor is an Arc elemental weapon from Trials that can be picked up from Saint-14 at the Tower. Ranking up his reputation to collect Trials Engram and then concentrate it on the weapon is the only way of increasing the chances of a god roll. In order to focus, one must have it unlocked in their collection.
In order to unlock a weapon in the collection, players can choose to open the Trials Engram on the Cryptarch. If in case the person does not have the weapon, then the chances of a new weapon dropping increases.
The Inquisitor is a new gear added to the loot pool of this season's Trials of Osiris. It deals Arc damage, which is huge for Arc 3.0 builds. On top of that, its Precision Slug archetype let players deal with increased archetype damage, resulting into easily one-shotting Guardians from fair distances.
2. PvP God roll
The Inquisitor's base Range is 73 which is the highest compared to other weapons of the same archetype.
With the correct perks, players can easily bring down Guardians from a fair distance that Pellet Shotguns cannot do. The only drawback is their inability to one-shot with body shots.
The best perk combinations for The Inquisitor in Destiny 2 PvP are as follows:
Smallbore for Range and Stability.
Accurized Rounds for more Range of the weapon
Perpetual Motion for increased handling, Stability, and Reload Speed while in motion.
Opening Shot for increased Range and Accuracy for the first bullet of the magazine.
The weapon also includes damage perks like Swashbuckler and Adrenaline Junkie, both of which are great for melee and grenade builds.
3. PvE God roll
The Inquisitor is the best Shotgun for PvE since the seasonal artifact is giving an Unstoppable Shotgun mod. Players can even pair this up with Arc builds, be it grenades or melees.
The best perks for The Inquisitor in Destiny 2 PvE are mentioned below:
Arrowhead Break for Recoil Direction and Handling.
Tactical Mag for +1 to the magazine, increased Reload Speed and Stability.
Demolitionist for 20% grenade energy on kills.
Golden Tricorn for 50% increased damage on the grenade and power melee kills.
Demolitionist is the perfect pair with Adrenaline Junkie. Fourth Time's the Charm is also significant for boss and elite DPS, because it returns two ammos to the magazine after landing four precision hits.
