The Best Weapon In ‘Destiny 2’ Right Now Is Easier To Farm Than You Think

There has been one weapon I’ve been in love with since it was released in Destiny 2 when Season of the Wish first launched, and while it’s been used by many this whole time, it’s come back with a vengeance as a top choice for Onslaught in particular.

That would be Indebted Kindness, the rocket-sidearm archetype where it’s the only one to exist in the game right now. It’s a sidearm that uses special ammo, hits hard and has some other exceptional abilities for the game’s hardest content.

The god roll for Indebted Kindness is probably Lead for Gold/Voltshot. My personal favorite is Impulse Amplifier/Voltshot for the projectile speed and reload, but Lead for Gold can allow you to practically use it as a primary at all times, so I get the appeal. There’s also Lead for Gold/Deconstruct where after recent Deconstruct buffs, leads to infinite shots on some targets.

Why is Indebted Kindness so good?

• The ammo economy is amazing for a special weapon, and that’s even before Lead for Gold.
• The gun absolutely chunks both orange and yellow bars when you need it to, and doesn’t make for half bad boss damage in a pinch.
• With Voltshot, it’s a fantastic tool for mob clearing as Voltshot scales to do more damage when it’s on a special instead of a primary.
• This season, at least, sidearms have anti-barrier from the artifact, and Indebted Kindness one-shots barrier shields.

It’s frequently used in GMs, but now, it’s incredible in Onslaught, and no, you do not have to be running arc to use it (honestly who is running arc this season). The guy who beat all 50 waves of Onslaught on Legend, solo? Guess what he was using most of the time? Indebted Kindness.

The good thing about Indebted Kindness is that it’s pretty easy to farm despite being in a dungeon. You can solo it, but my way is always just run through the traversal part on Warlord’s Ruin very quickly, get the checkpoint at the first boss, then LFG for two people to join.

This is the first boss encounter against the Scorn captain where you need to stand in his totems to extended time for a DPS phase, and then when you’re warped to a jail cage, shoot Taken eyes to free yourself and your teammates.

I usually run Banner of War Titan for this where I can more or less do half the boss’s damage by myself, and the other two players can do whatever they want. You can one phase, you will almost always two or three phase at worst with any mildy okay group. Indebted Kindness is one of the weapon drops besides the sword and bow, though the armor pool is polluted by armor as well. So it can be a grind, but it’s worth it for this gun, trust me. Give it a shot, and then…give it a shot. You’ll see.
