Destiny 2: The Best Exotic Weapons – 5 Exotics You Need (2017)

The Rat King – Gather the Rats Around You

The Rat King was already one of the most sought-after weapons before the launch of Destiny 2. During the gameplay premiere, a model of it was displayed in a showcase, showcasing the weapon’s unique look. Many Guardians immediately exclaimed, “I want that thing!”

The barrel of this weapon is intricately decorated with rats that are digging a tunnel.

It is an exotic pistol that deals kinetic damage. The rate of fire is 300, and the magazine holds 15 rounds.

These are the special perks:

• Rat Pack: The weapon becomes stronger when allies nearby also have equipped the Rat King. The effect is stackable up to 6 times. The weapon fires faster.
• Vermin: Reloading immediately after a kill makes you temporarily invisible.

The Rat King not only has an exciting design but also exciting abilities. However, its maximum power can only be shown in the raid, as this is currently the only activity that can be played with 5 other allies to maximize the Rat Pack perk. Once active, it is shown by the weapon glowing red.

The Rat King is a weapon whose power is highly situational. If you want to engage in this playstyle, you can go wild with this pistol.

You obtain the Rat King through an Exotic quest. You can find out how to do this here.
