Alright Guardians! Interested in the Wardcliff Coil Catalyst? Yes, you can still get it. Let’s explore this wild rocket launcher and its sought-after upgrade.
Wardcliff Coil and its Catalyst: Obtainable in Destiny 2?
Wardcliff Coil is a world drop exotic. It’s not a quest reward. It surprises you when you least expect it. Imagine grinding enemies and suddenly BAM! It’s there. Keep defeating foes, and Wardcliff Coil may appear in your inventory.
Now, about that Catalyst. The Wardcliff Coil Catalyst is also a random world drop. No specific activity guarantees it. It’s all luck, Guardian. But isn’t that part of the fun of Destiny 2?
After you get this Catalyst, the grind begins. You need to achieve 500 kills with Wardcliff Coil. Yes, five hundred. It’s time to practice your trigger finger. You have a lot of rockets to fire.
Wardcliff Coil: Mayhem in a Magazine
Why bother with this Catalyst? Wardcliff Coil is not an ordinary rocket launcher. It unleashes a swarm of rockets, turning enemies into mist. Each trigger pull fires eight rockets at once.
The damage? Oh, it’s incredible. This weapon is a top-tier heavy damage per second (DPS) option. It’s especially known for absolutely melting the final boss in the Vesper’s Host dungeon. Seriously, it melts like butter on a Hot Hive Knight. Each rocket hits like a standard rocket, and you fire EIGHT simultaneously. Do the math.
Does Wardcliff Coil track? Yes! Those rockets track enemies efficiently. You don’t need pinpoint accuracy. Just point in their general direction and unleash chaos.
Fun fact: Wardcliff Coil started in Destiny 1 as an unreleased exotic called “Dubious Volley.” Luckily, Bungie brought the idea back for Destiny 2.
Exotic Weapon Catalysts: Powering Up Your Arsenal
The Wardcliff Coil’s Catalyst is a world drop. What about Exotic Catalysts in general? These upgrades are scattered across Destiny 2’s activities. They are hidden treasures waiting to be found.
When you find a Catalyst for an Exotic weapon, applying it is easy. Go to the weapon’s perk menu, add it in, and BAM! Your Exotic weapon gets a huge boost. Usually, this boost means an extra perk and generating Orbs of Power on multi-kills. It makes you a team player.
