In Destiny 2, there is a shader that many guardians are currently searching for. The sources for it were debated heatedly until recently. We explain exactly where you can get the coveted shader.
What happened? After the puzzle of the Niobe Labs was finally solved by the guardians, many assumed that almost all secrets surrounding the “Black Armory” DLC would be solved. However, for a long time, a shader from the Black Armory remained a puzzle for the guardians. How exactly do you get the Bergusia Night?
Why are so many searching for this shader? Since the Black Armory has now exhausted almost all of its content, many guardians are focusing more on long-term goals such as triumphs or titles.
No matter if for the Blacksmith title or the badge of the Black Armory – the Bergusia shader is required for these achievements.
Additionally, the shader looks cool and has a special animation. Numerous symbols flow over corresponding weapons and armor pieces in a mist effect. These symbols are likely familiar to many from the puzzles surrounding the Black Armory.
However, there is a catch, as the shader appears to be quite rare. For a long time, it was unclear how exactly to acquire this shader. Many were desperate in their search.
Here’s how you can get the coveted shader Bergusia Night: Now that the Bergusia Forge has been ignited, there is finally clarity regarding the sources for this rare shader.
Currently, there are two sources for it. You can find Bergusia Night at
- curated weapon versions (curated Rolls) from the Bergusia Forge. These drop randomly when you complete powerful weapon frames from Ada-1 in the Bergusia Forge. So, they come in addition to the weapon actually forged.
- curated weapons from the Raid Scourge of the Past. These drop randomly at the end of individual encounters in the raid. These curated weapons also come in addition to the regular loot.
However, you won’t be able to enjoy the weapon for long. To get the shader, you unfortunately have to dismantle the appropriate firearm. There’s no other way.
What are curated weapons? Curated weapons are special versions that have fixed, predefined perk sets and already come as masterworks at level 10 with a set stat. You can recognize them by the particularly ornate menu pattern and the golden border that masterwork weapons receive.
Weapons from which you get the Bergusia Night shader are the 7 curated forge weapons or curated firearms from the new raid Scourge of the Past.
But beware! Before you dismantle one of these weapons, it’s better to take a closer look at them. Sometimes it’s worth keeping the weapon instead of dismantling it for the coveted shader. You may not only save the high costs for the masterwork upgrade, but you might also get a truly top-tier weapon.
While not all curated weapons are equipped with the best perk sets, some of them have excellent combinations that you should prefer to keep instead of dismantling. Among them:
- the Hand Cannon Kindled Orchid with Extended Mag, Kill Clip, Rampage, and a masterwork on Range. An absolute God Roll
- the Sword Stryker’s Reliability with Assassin’s Blade, Surrounded, and a masterwork on Impact. It doesn’t get much better than this
- the Heavy Machine Gun Hammerhead with Vorpal Weapon, Rampage, and a masterwork on Handling. Definitely another God Roll
