The new Destiny 2 Fortunate Star bow is available for a limited time with the Solstice event, so get a PVE or PVP God Roll while you can. This bow’s excellent selection of perks means it’ll work well in almost any loadout, whether you’re fighting enemies of humanity or other Guardians in the Crucible. It also means you have a few options to look out for, so getting a solid roll in Destiny 2 might not be as hard as you think. To help you figure out what’s best for a Fortunate Star, I’ve laid out some God Rolls below, and also how to farm the bow.
How to farm Fortunate Star Scrolls in Destiny 2
Fortunate Star is the newest weapon of the Solstice event. So to farm for it, you have to Complete the Bonfire Bash activity. A full run can easily be completed in under 10 minutes and you’ll get multiple Solstice weapons at the end. This means you’ll likely get at least one Fortunate Star roll, but you could also get rolls for the other Solstice weapons, like the Destiny 2 Compass Rose shotgun. Solstice ends with Destiny 2’s weekly reset on August 27th and then you won’t be able to get Fortunate Star until next year.
Fortunate Star PVE God Rolls in Destiny 2
As a Void damage bow, Fortunate Star gets access to some great Void perks. This means the God Roll I recommend for it is a bit specific, but there are several alternatives for a more general PVE bow build. Here’s the God Roll for Fortunate Star that I think you should look for:
- Bowstring: Elastic cord
- Arrow: Compact arrow shaft or Fiberglass arrow shaft
- Advantage 1: Repulsor Bracer
- Advantage 2: Destabilizing Rounds
- Origin: Choose Veist Stinger
- Masterpiece: Drawing time
- The change: Choose Target Adjuster or Freehand grip
As mentioned, the Void perk combo of Repulsor Brace and Destabilizing Rounds is hard to ignore – killing a chaff enemy with a single arrow causes a Void explosion that deals damage and hopefully kills more enemies, and all of this contributes to you getting a Void overshield from Repulsor Brace. It’s worth noting that you don’t need to be using a Void subclass for this combo to work, but it certainly helps since Void Fragments can provide additional benefits.
However, look for Successful warm-up And Kill clip (or Interruption You can trade your special weapon (if you have a special weapon with good primary ammo in your loadout) for a powerful, fast-firing bow that can handle all kinds of enemies if you don’t want a Void-targeted bow.
Compass Rose PVP God Role in Destiny 2
As for the Crucible, Fortunate Star offers a lot of top PVP benefits, especially if you can make the most of its short draw time. Here’s a simple God Roll I recommend you try, but there are other suitable options as well:
- Bowstring: Elastic cord
- Arrow: Fiberglass arrow shaft
- Advantage 1: Archer Speed
- Advantage 2: Opening shot
- Origin: Choose Veist Stinger
- Masterpiece: Target acquisition
- The change: Choose Target Adjuster or Freehand grip
This throw takes advantage of the strengths of the Lightweight Frame and aims to speed up the bow draw as much as possible, allowing you to quickly fire two accurate arrows for quick kills. Archer’s Tempo will be very helpful with this if you can get headshots, and Opening Shot will generally help with landing the first arrow, although the damage bonus from Kill clip can also be nice.
Alternatively, if you are looking for a more advanced Bow God roll that maintains mobility but sacrifices some accuracy, you should look for rolls with Hip fire grip And Archer’s Gambit – a deadly combination in the right hands.
