How to Obtain the Mistral Lift in Destiny 2
The Mistral Lift, a Linear Fusion Rifle, is exclusive to Destiny 2's Dawning event. Secure it from Eva Levante by trading one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits. Eva also sells Festive Engrams (one "Gift in Return" and 10 Dawning Spirits), but the Mistral Lift isn't guaranteed.
To earn a "Gift in Return," bake a Dawning treat (like the Neomun-Cake) and present it to an NPC. Dawning Spirits, the event's currency, are earned through Dawning quests and bounties obtained daily from Eva.
Once you have enough "Gifts in Return" and Dawning Spirits, visit Eva to purchase the Mistral Lift directly or a Festive Engram. Repeat this process to farm for the desired god roll.
Destiny 2 Mistral Lift God Roll
While Linear Fusion Rifles haven't always been meta in Destiny 2, the Mistral Lift shines in PvE, particularly for solo players. Here's the recommended god roll:
Column | Roll |
---|---|
Barrel | Fluted Barrel |
Battery | Enhanced Battery |
Perk 1 | Withering Gaze |
Perk 2 | Bait and Switch |
Masterwork | Handling |
Withering Gaze and Bait and Switch are key. Withering Gaze debuffs enemies, and Bait and Switch provides a 30% damage boost (after aiming down sights for a second). This combination makes it potent in PvE. Consider Envious Assassin over Withering Gaze for group play, though both are excellent.
Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and Handling masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity.
While not ideal for PvP, the Mistral Lift's PvE performance makes it worthwhile.
