How to Get Mistral Lift & Its God Roll in Destiny 2

Unlock the Destiny 2 Mistral Lift: A Guide to Obtaining This Linear Fusion Rifle and Its God Roll

The Dawning event in Destiny 2 has returned, offering players the chance to bake treats for NPCs and farm for new weapons, including the sought-after Mistral Lift. This guide details how to acquire the Mistral Lift and its optimal god roll.

Acquiring the Mistral Lift

The Mistral Lift, a Linear Fusion Rifle, is a Dawning event exclusive, available for a limited time. To obtain it, you must trade Eva Levante one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits. Eva also sells Festive Engrams (one "Gift in Return" and 10 Dawning Spirits), but these offer a random chance at the Mistral Lift.

"Gifts in Return" are earned by baking Dawning treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and gifting them to NPCs. Dawning Spirits, the event's currency, are obtained by completing Dawning quests and bounties from Eva daily. Once you've gathered the necessary resources, visit Eva to purchase the Mistral Lift directly or a Festive Engram. Repeat this process until you obtain your desired roll.

The God Roll for PvE Domination

While Linear Fusion Rifles haven't always been meta in Destiny 2, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, particularly for solo players. The recommended god roll is:

The key perks are Withering Gaze (enemy debuffs) and Bait and Switch (30% damage boost after aiming down sights for a second). While Withering Gaze is excellent for solo play, Envious Assassin is a viable alternative for group activities. Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and Handling Masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity.

PvP performance is limited due to the weapon type, but for PvE enthusiasts, the Mistral Lift's god roll is highly recommended. Consult The Escapist for additional Destiny 2 guides and information.
