Destiny 2’s first season of The Final Shape, titled Episode: Echoes, is in full swing now with its second Act being added to the game just recently. As is par for the course, Episode: Echoes has brought with it numerous weapons, both new and old, and these weapons all have God Rolls. Some weapons are great, others are not so great *cough* Faith-Keeper *cough*, but here are the God Rolls for each weapon that is a part of Episode: Echoes (including three guns that aren’t available just yet but are in the Destiny API). A few of these weapons have multiple choices for each column which will be listed, you can choose which of these combinations best suits your needs/playstyle in both PVE and PVP (where applicable).

Veiled Threat – Stasis Auto Rifle (Craftable)

This 720rpm Rapid Fire Frame Auto Rifle is the first weapon that this episode has to offer. While its perks aren’t the strongest, those who need a decent Stasis Auto Rifle can aim for one of these bad boys. For PVP I recommend using Arrowhead Break to bring in the weapon’s recoil pattern a little, but you can opt to use something like Hammer-Forged if you prefer the bump in range.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Stability	Hammer-Forged Rifling	Flared Magwell	Threat Detector	Surrounded / Headstone	Radiolaria Tranposer

PVP God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Arrowhead Break / Hammer-Forged Rifling	Accurized Rounds	To The Pain	Moving Target	Radiolaria Tranposer

Corrasion – Arc Pulse Rifle (Craftable)

Joining the new Heavy Burst Pulse Rifle family alongside the likes of Aisha’s Care from Trials of the Osiris and Nullify from Salvation’s Edge, Corrasion looks to prove that this type of auto rifle is king in PVE right now. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend a Heavy Burst Pulse Rifle in PVP, but there are still options here should you choose to go down that route.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Stability	Hammer-Forged Rifling	Flared Magwell	Enlightened Action	Voltshot	Radiolaria Tranposer

PVP God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Hammer-Forged Rifling	Accurized Rounds	Air Trigger / High Impact Reserves	High Ground / Eye of the Storm	Radiolaria Tranposer

Sightline Survey – Arc Hand Cannon (Craftable)

Precision Frame Hand Cannons aren’t exactly the strongest weapons in Destiny 2. They see little to no use in PVE, with a case being made for them in PVP with the Sightline Survey. Either way, PVE and PVP players alike should find various options here. For PVE, I would recommend Enlightened Action more than Triple Tap as it has more direct synergy with Voltshot, but either perk is good.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Hammer-Forged Rifling	Flared Magwell	Enlightened Action /  Triple Tap	Voltshot	Radiolaria Tranposer

PVP God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Hammer-Forged Rifling	Accurized Rounds	Air Trigger / Keep Away	Precision Instrument	Radiolaria Tranposer

Timeworn Wayfarer – Solar Scout Rifle (Craftable)

Joining the stylish but, for now, underpowered Tex Mechanica style Scout Rifle family is the Timeworn Wayfarer. While initially panned for being a member of the weakest family in one of the most consistently underwhelming primary weapon types in Destiny 2, this gun is surprisingly versatile and might see more use in PVE with the incoming buff to its damage. This weapon is incredibly potent in PVP when paired with High Ground and a Radiant buff, allowing the possibility of defeating opposing Guardians in two headshots. You can choose between Smallbore or Hammer-Forged Rifling for a PVP roll, as the latter has 7 less stability but will grant you an extra metre of range.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Stability	Smallbore / Fluted Barrel	Flared Magwell	Heal Clip	Incandescent	Radiolaria Tranposer

PVP God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Smallbore / Hammer-Forged Rifling	Accurized Rounds	Keep Away	High Ground	Radiolaria Tranposer

Aberrant Action – Solar Sidearm (Craftable)

The hottest weapon in the game right now, Aberrant Action is the third member of the relatively new family of Rocket-Assisted Frame Sidearms. This is THE weapon everyone wants as the archetype is incredibly strong right now. I do NOT recommend using this in PVP, so I will only be providing a PVE god roll for this weapon. There are a number of choices but there are a few quirks to be noted with this weapon. For starters, despite being a special weapon, perks like Strategist, Pugilist, and Demolitionist provide the benefit of a primary weapon, so rather than the 20% ability energy generation, it is 10%. Either way, there is one very clear winner here: Incandescent.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Velocity	Hard Launch	High-Explosive Ordnance	Heal Clip / Beacon Rounds	Incandescent	Radiolaria Tranposer

Chronophage – Void Trace Rifle (Craftable)

One of the few weapons that are currently not available at the time of writing, but are viewable in the Destiny API, this Void Trace Rifle looks to replace Hollow Denial which has been dominating its Void Trace Rifle field since Season of the Haunted back in 2022. Like Aberrant Action, I am not providing a PVP roll for this weapon as I don’t recommend bringing this thing into the Crucible.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Smallbore	Enhanced Battery	Repulsor Brace	Destabilizing Rounds	Radiolaria Tranposer

Faith-Keeper – Void Rocket Launcher (Craftable)

Look, not all weapons in each episode can be a banger, and Faith-Keeper immediately loses to stiff competition like the Apex Predator by proxy of its terrible archetype; Precision Frame Rocket Launcher. I honestly would not recommend bringing this into either PVP or PVE content, but if you did want to use this admittedly cool-looking rocket launcher, there is one roll that should have you covered (for PVE, not PVP).

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Velocity	Hard Launch	Impact Casing	Auto-Loading Holster	Lasting Impressions	Radiolaria Tranposer

Ill Omen – Stasis Sword (Craftable)

Swords are quite strong right now. They have proven to be useful in Salvation’s Edge, Crota’s End, and even Root of Nightmares if you are crazy enough. Unfortunately for Ill Omen, Caster Frame swords just are not very good. There is one niche for it, however, and that is as an Overload and Unstoppable Champion stun machine. I wouldn't recommend it over something like the Aurvandil FR6 which can have Reconstruction and Chill Clip, but if you are so inclined to muck around with this sword, there is something for you here. I don’t recommend this at all for PVP so I will only provide a PVE God Roll.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Blade	Guard	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Impact	Jagged Edge	Swordmaster’s Guard	Relentless Strikes	Cold Steel	Radiolaria Tranposer

Speleologist – Solar Machine Gun (Craftable)

One of the other few weapons that are currently not available, but are viewable in the Destiny API, the Speleoligist has some interesting perks and can potentially fit right in as your heavy add clear machine. I can’t recommend this for PVP as I currently have no idea how it handles, but I can’t imagine it would stack up compared to its competition in the same slot.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range / Stability	Smallbore	Flared Magwell	Enlightened Action / Envious Assassin	Incandescent / Killing Tally	Radiolaria Tranposer

Patron of Lost Causes – Kinetic Scout Rifle

The first of the reprised weapons from Shadowkeep’s Season of Dawn which are not craftable, this Kinetic Lightweight Frame Scout Rifle sees its perk pool revamped to include some more modern perks.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range / Stability	Smallbore	Flared Magwell	Triple Tap / Rapid Hit	Kinetic Tremors	Cast No Shadows

PVP God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Hammer-Forged Rifling	Accurized Rounds	Rapid Hit	Precision Instrument	Cast No Shadows

Breachlight – Strand Sidearm

A fan favourite amongst the community, this reprised Season of Dawn Sidearm shows off its shiny new elemental typing, Strand. While regular Sidearms aren’t the strongest in PVE, there are some options here for you to have some fun. I do not recommend this weapon for PVP, as its perks do not seem to favour the Crucible sandbox, currently.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Smallbore	Flared Magwell	Demolitionist / Pugilist / Threat Detector	Adrenaline Junkie / Swashbuckler / Hatchling	Cast No Shadows

Perfect Paradox – Kinetic Shotgun

This slick shotgun sees a return but can only be looked at as an option for melee-oriented PVE builds, as Rapid Fire Frame Shotguns are not very good in the Crucible. There is still a roll here for those that don’t have a crafted Wastelander MK5 from Dares of Eternity. I would only pair Pugilist with Trench Barrel if you wish to use the former over something like Threat Detector/Remover which should be paired with One-Two Punch.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Full Choke	Accurized Rounds	Threat Detector / Threat Remover / Pugilist	One-Two Punch / Trench Barrel	Cast No Shadows

Martyr's Retribution – Solar Special Grenade Launcher

The first Solar Wave Frame that players will be able to obtain since Season of the Risen’s Explosive Personality, it seems that PVE players will finally have a PVE-oriented Solar Wave Frame Grenade Launcher. I do not recommend you use this in PVP as it will perform terribly in the current sandbox. This is the last of the few Episode: Echoes weapons that are currently not available.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Velocity	Hard Launcher	High-Velocity Rounds	Auto-Loading Holster / Envious Assassin / Heal Clip	Incandescent	Cast No Shadows

Line in the Sand – Arc Linear Fusion Rifle

Linear Fusion Rifles aren’t in the greatest place right now, and even if they were there would be a lot of very stiff competition for Line in the Sand. Regardless, there is hope for this Linear Fusion Rifle, with one perk in particular ensuring that it isn’t wholly left behind.

PVE God Roll

Masterwork	Barrel	Mag	3rd Column	4th Column	Origin Trait
Range	Hammer-Forged Rifling	Ionized Battery / Enhanced Battery	Rapid Hit / Clown Cartridge	Bait and Switch	Cast No Shadows

With that, we have all the weapons that should be a part of Episode: Echoes. Be sure to get those red borders for the Vex-themed weapons so you can enhance their perks!
