In Destiny 2 you can get the Gambit pinnacle weapon 21% Delirium. How to obtain it and what it can do, you can find out here.
This is the pinnacle weapon: In Season 6, three new “pinnacle weapons”, as Bungie calls them, were added to the game. These are of legendary quality and have unique perks – almost like Exotics.
The new pinnacle weapon from Gambit is 21% Delirium. It is a machine gun for which you will spend many hours in the Gambit modes. But the grind is worth it!
How to get 21% Delirium in Season 6
What you need to do for 21% Delirium: First, go to the Drifter in the Tower, who is now located in the Tower annex. Speak to him and browse his inventory on page 2. There, he has the quest “Self-Help” for you. To master the quest, you must complete the Gambit triumph “Constant Sweating”. Once you have done this, the Drifter will drop 21% Delirium.
This is “Constant Sweating”: The triumph will cost you some hours of gameplay, but it should be easily achievable within this season if you enjoy Gambit:
- 75 multi-kills
- Defeat the Invaders (the witches at the Primeval) and the Primeval (until the bar is 100% filled)
- Reset the infamy rank
You probably don’t need to tackle the first two objectives specifically. They should be completed alongside your efforts to reset the infamy rank.
You need 15,000 infamy points for the reset. You earn these through Gambit bounties and completing Gambit matches. Also, Gambit Prime and the Gambit Prime bounties grant infamy. Winning streaks increase your point gain after matches.
What 21% Delirium can do
This is 21% Delirium: This legendary machine gun is wielded in the power slot and deals Arc damage. It has a rapid-fire frame, providing large magazine reserves and a fire rate of 900. For comparison: The Hammerhead has a fire rate of 450.
These are the perks of 21% Delirium:
- Kill Tracker – special perk: Kills increase weapon damage until stowed or reloaded.
- Overflow: Picking up special or heavy ammo overfills the weapon beyond its normal capacity. This is a perk that several Gambit Prime weapons can have.
- Extended Mag: Increases magazine size, reduces reload speed.
- Polygonal Rifling: Increases stability.
You receive the weapon as a masterwork version with fixed perks. The stability of 21% Delirium is enhanced by the masterwork version.
In PvE, the weapon is top-notch
How 21% Delirium performs in PvE: In combat against aliens, this machine gun is really strong. There are two reasons for this:
- The weapon has 102 rounds of ammo, but with the Overflow perk, that goes over 200 rounds! So you can keep enemies under constant fire, eliminate a lot of small enemies, and keep tough bosses in check. If you stow the weapon, the large magazine remains intact.
- The Kill Tracker ensures that adds die even faster, and 21% Delirium also performs well against the big enemies.
How the Kill Tracker works: The Youtuber Ehroar has conducted tests on this perk. The effect can stack up to three times.
- If you kill one enemy, damage increases by 21.5%
- If you kill two enemies, damage increases by 43%
- If you kill three enemies, damage increases by 65%. If the base damage is 622, you now deal 1025
The special thing about this perk is that it has no time limit (unlike Kill Clip). You can build up the buff and then carry it to a particularly nasty enemy without losing it.
You just need to be careful not to reload, stow the weapon, or pull out the Sparrow. Then the buff disappears.
With the Overflow perk, it is relatively easy to maintain the buff. The weapon automatically reloads when you run over the appropriate ammo box. The perks complement each other well.
Is the weapon worth it in PvE? Yes, you will have a lot of fun with 21% Delirium in PvE. The weapon comes with strong perks, wipes out the adds easily, is strong against bosses with the buff, and doesn’t take up an exotic slot. Other weapons can deal more damage over time, but 21% Delirium is still a beast against hordes of enemies.
Is the weapon also worth it in PvP? It is certainly useful. At close range, it kills quickly, but it is barely usable at long range, and the Overflow perk does not come into play here. In PvP, you have 61 rounds when picking up ammo. The Kill Tracker works well in PvP.
It can also impress in Gambit.
