Destiny: The 5 Most Desirable Weapons at Xur – Guardian Wishes 2014-2017

Rank 1: Nemesis Star

With a clear lead at rank 1: The Nemesis Star. A machine gun that was newly introduced with “The Rise of Iron.” Guardians saw images of this extravagant heavy weapon in advance and thought: I want that!

The Nemesis Star belongs to the Thunderlord archetype on paper: Impact is increased while fire rate is low. Compared to Thunderlord, range and reload speed are extremely low, but stability is high. “Nemesis Star” deals solar damage. Here are the stats:

However, one should not put too much stock in these base values, as the perks of Nemesis Star shake up the abilities significantly: You can use it as either a rapid-firing or slow-firing weapon.

In short: The Nemesis Star is a new “Year 3” weapon, it looks exciting and comes with interesting exotic perks that make the weapon a solid choice. It received 54,945 votes, totaling a hefty 14.80% of total votes. A clear first place.

By the way: Far behind rank 5 are Red Death, Telesto, Hard Light, Fatebringer and MIDA Multi-Tool.
