Looking to add a powerful Void weapon to your Destiny 2 arsenal? The Lotus-Eater Rocket Sidearm is a top-tier pick, especially after recent Void perk buffs. This guide covers how to get the Lotus-Eater and breaks down the best PvE God Roll to maximize your damage, survivability, and overall performance in endgame activities.
How to Get Lotus-Eater
Lotus-Eater is a powerful Void Rocket Sidearm. If you want to enhance your build and overall performance, this weapon is definitely worth chasing, especially for a God Roll. If one wants to have a Lotus-Eater in his armory, then Nightfall strikes have to be completed, as well as opening the final chest on the way out. This weapon can drop only when it’s featured in the weekly Nightfall loot pool. For the Adept version, upon completion of Grandmaster Nightfall, defeating every Champion and hitting Platinum completion, you can start rolling for more Adept versions from Zavala by trading in:
- 1 Vanguard Engram
- 50,000 Glimmer
- 10 Nightfall Ciphers
At the Tower, the vendor screen at Zavala also carries an option for Focus Decoding. If you have gotten at least one Lotus-Eater drop, you can now spend 5 Vanguard Engrams and 25,000 Glimmer to increase your available rolls in the category of weapons dropped from Nightfalls.
PvE God Roll for Lotus-Eater
For the ideal PvE God Roll on Lotus-Eater, aim for Quick Launch for the barrel, Extended Mag for the magazine, Repulsor Brace in the first perk slot, and Destabilizing Rounds in the second, paired with the Backup Mag mod. Repulsor Brace grants a 45 HP overshield when you defeat an enemy affected by a Void debuff like Suppress, Weaken, or Volatile. Destabilizing Rounds causes defeated enemies to trigger a Void burst, making nearby enemies Volatile and granting you Volatile Rounds in return. Together, these perks create a powerful loop of overshields and explosive Void effects, perfect for crowd control and survivability. Together, these perks offer a loop of constant overshields and explosive Void effects, making the Lotus-Eater an excellent tool for crowd control and survivability in PvE.
