How to get Destiny 2 The Mountaintop God Rolls

In the heat of battle, Guardian, you will know the right choice to make.

The Mountaintop has made a triumphant return to Destiny 2. This Grenade Launcher was an absolute menace in Crucible back in the day, and this reprised version seeks to do the same. While getting The Mountaintop isn’t a big hassle, knowing which roll to chase can be. Here are the God Rolls to watch for.

How to get The Mountaintop in Destiny 2

The Mountaintop became available in the second week of Into the Light. Upon logging in, you’ll receive a quest to speak with Arcite 99-40 in the Hall of Champions, who will then give you the proper quest that rewards the Curated Roll for The Mountaintop.

As with the other BRAVE Arsenal weapon quests, you’ll be tasked with getting respective weapon kills, in this case, breach-loading grenade launchers. Heavy Grenade Launchers will not progress this quest! After completing the quest, you can attune to the corresponding hologram of Lord Shaxx to increase the drop rate of The Mountaintop in Onslaught.

Destiny 2 The Mountaintop God Rolls

PvE God Roll

I’ll admit that Grenade Launchers in Destiny 2 aren’t really my jam. I’d much prefer a Shotgun or Glaive. However, The Mountaintop can be absolutely disgusting with the right roll. By increasing Stability and Handling, we can reliably get kills that trigger Adrenaline Junkie. Throw a Heavy Ammo Finder Mod on and Lead from Gold will kick in, ensuring your other equipped weapon will be mostly collecting dust.

  • Smart Drift Control: Increases Stability by +10, Recoil Control by +15, Velocity by +5, and Handling by +10.
  • Spike Grenades: Increases Stability by +10 and direct hits deal 12.12% increased damage.
  • Lead from Gold: Picking up Heavy Ammo gives 25% of max Special Ammo reserves.
  • Adrenaline Junkie: Kills with this weapon or a Grenade grants +20 Handling and a stacking damage buff for (4.5) seconds.
    • x1: 6.7%
    • x2: 13.3%
    • x3: 20%
    • x4: 26.6%
    • x5: 33.3%
  • Masterworked Reload Speed: Increases Reload Speed by +10.

PvP God Roll

My PvP Grenade Launchers live their lives a quarter mile at a time. It’s all about speed and blowing up that Guardian sitting on B before they knew what hit them. This roll does that thanks to several perks enhancing Projectile Speed while also mitigating the drawbacks from Hard Launch. Special Ammo is a valuable thing in the Crucible, so it’s important to make the most of what you get.

  • Hard Launch: Increases Velocity by +15 while reducing Stability by -10 and Blast Radius by -5.
  • High-Velocity Rounds: Increases Projectile and Reload speeds by +10.
  • Impulse Amplifier: Increases Projectile Velocity by 35% and Reload Speed by +20.
  • Vorpal Weapon: Increases damage by 20% against Guardians with an active Super.
  • Masterworked Blast Radius: Increases Blast Radius.
