Destiny 2has almost 100 exotic weapons for players to use. With so many options, it can be hard to choose one, but the game’s constantly changing meta can also mean certain weapons are good in one season and not another. In Season of the Lost, there are quite a few exotic weapons that stand out from the pack, but only a handful have become necessities.
This doesn’t mean players shouldn’t use whatever weapons they want inDestiny 2, but some options are more reliable than others. For those looking to see the very best weapons available in the current meta, the following tier list should prove to be extremely useful.

Season of the Lost PvE Exotics
For PvE, there are quite a few weapons that players should consider using if they have them inDestiny 2. While fusion rifles are dominating the landscape inSeason of the Lost, there are still reliable options found in other weapon classes. Some will be difficult to get, but others are as easy as a trip to the Monument to Lost Lights.

A-Tier – One Thousand Voices, Sleeper Simulant, and Trinity Ghoul

Season of the Lost PvP
The PvP meta inDestiny 2doesn’t change as often as PvE’s, but that doesn’t mean things don’t get shaken up sometimes. The recentmatchmaking changes to Trials of Osirisand the game mode’s overhaul are good examples of how PvP can evolve. The addition of new weapons can also shift the landscape as players develop new tactics and impressive ways to use their exotic gear.
B-Tier – Thorn
C-Tier – Jotunn
While these weapons are favored by many players and perform well, they’re not requirements.Exotic weaponsinDestiny 2often push players' play styles and have a primary focus. What suits one Guardian might not always suit another, making less used options great for those that want to experience something off-meta. Still, for those that are only looking to use the best of the best, that information should now be clear.
Destiny 2is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
