How to Get Mistral Lift in Destiny 2
Mistral Lift is a limited-time Linear Fusion Rifle available only during Destiny 2's Dawning event. Acquire it from Eva Levante by trading one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits. Eva also sells Festive Engrams (1 Gift in Return and 10 Dawning Spirits), but these offer a random chance at the Mistral Lift.
To obtain "Gifts in Return," bake Dawning treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and deliver them to NPCs. Dawning Spirits are earned by completing daily Dawning quests and bounties from Eva. Repeat the process until you acquire the Mistral Lift.
Destiny 2 Mistral Lift God Roll
While Linear Fusion Rifles aren't currently meta in Destiny 2 PvP, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, particularly for solo players. The recommended god roll is:
Stat | Roll |
---|---|
Barrel | Fluted Barrel |
Battery | Enhanced Battery |
Perk 1 | Withering Gaze |
Perk 2 | Bait and Switch |
Masterwork | Handling |
The ideal perks are Withering Gaze (enemy debuff) and Bait and Switch (30% damage boost after aiming down sights). Consider Envious Assassin as an alternative to Withering Gaze for group play. Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and a Handling Masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity.
While not ideal for PvP, the Mistral Lift's PvE capabilities, especially with this god roll, make it a worthwhile acquisition for solo players. Check The Escapist for more Destiny 2 tips and guides.
