The Vault of Glass stands as the inaugural and longest-standing raid within the Destiny universe, celebrated for its groundbreaking mechanics, unforgettable boss encounters, and, most notably, its exceptional loot rewards.
In a recent update, Bungie has revived the weapons from Vault of Glass, introducing exciting new perks alongside a novel origin trait known as Timelost. This trait bestows extra super energy with each kill and doubles the magazine size after a super is cast.
Additionally, players are now empowered to craft Vault of Glass weapons, allowing for the creation of the ideal 5/5 god roll without the need for repeated raids. While the first and second columns of perks may not be essential, they are included for those striving for absolute perfection in weapon crafting.
This guide will delve into all the reprised weapons from Vault of Glass, although we will exclude the raid’s unique exotic, Vex Mythoclast, which remains unchanged.
Praedyth’s Revenge (6)
Rapid DPS Sniper
| 1st Column | 2nd Column | 3rd Column | 4th Column | Masterwork | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PvE | Chambered Compensator | Tactical Mag | Rewind Rounds OR Envious Arsenal | Precision Instrument OR Bait and Switch | Stability |
| PvP | Arrowhead Brake | Accurized Rounds | No Distractions OR Discord | Opening Shot OR High-Impact Reserves | Handling |
Praedyth’s Revenge, categorized as a rapid-fire sniper rifle, boasts a substantial magazine, capable of discharging seven rounds swiftly before reloading. With its quick handling, this weapon excels in both mobility and reliability, making it an excellent choice for both PvE and PvP scenarios.
When compared to The Supremacy from the Last Wish raid, Praedyth’s Revenge emerges as a worthy competitor, as both weapons can roll with Rewind Rounds and Bait and Switch, enhancing their effectiveness against bosses with significant critical hit points during damage phases. Coupled with the Timelost trait, players can unleash their super and maximize their damage output against enemies.
For PvP engagements, handling and aim-down-sights (ADS) speed are critical, allowing for quick reaction shots. The No Distractions perk significantly mitigates flinch while aiming, while Opening Shot increases accuracy for those decisive initial encounters.
Hezen Vengeance (5)
High Yield Explosives
| 1st Column | 2nd Column | 3rd Column | 4th Column | Masterwork | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PvE | Linear Compensator | Alloy Casing | Envious Arsenal | Bait and Switch | Velocity |
| PvP | Volatile Launch | High-Velocity Rounds | Cluster Bomb | (Doesn’t matter) | Handling |
Hezen Vengeance, once viewed as an average aggressive-frame rocket launcher, now shines with its updated perks, such as Envious Arsenal and Bait and Switch. These perks maximize rocket output during damage phases when paired with other powerful weapons, such as Izanagi’s Burden. Enhanced velocity allows for better accuracy when targeting moving enemies.
However, in the PvP domain, Hezen Vengeance falters due to the scarcity of heavy ammo and lack of rocket tracking. The Cluster Bomb perk serves as a slight asset, providing splash damage capabilities to hit nearby foes when aimed slightly off-target.
Found Verdict (4)
The Perfect PvP Shotgun
| 1st Column | 2nd Column | 3rd Column | 4th Column | Masterwork | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PvE | Smoothbore | Assault Mag | Threat Remover | One-Two Punch | Handling |
| PvP | Rifled Barrel | Accurized Rounds | Slideshot | Opening Shot | Range |
Found Verdict is renowned as an aggressive frame Arc shotgun. These shotguns deliver high damage and benefit from an increased rate of fire upon kills, making them formidable in both PvE and PvP contexts. Unique perks like Threat Remover and One-Two Punch cater to melee-centric builds, such as Combination Blow and Liar’s Handshake for Hunters or Strand Titans.
Notably, Found Verdict excels in PvP, offering powerful combinations like Slideshot and Opening Shot, allowing players to seamlessly engage enemies with devastating results. It consistently ranks among the preferred shotgun choices alongside Matador 64 and Conditional Finality.
Corrective Measure (3)
Endless City
| 1st Column | 2nd Column | 3rd Column | 4th Column | Masterwork | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PvE | Corkscrew Rifling | Flared Magwell | Destabilizing Rounds | Demoralize | Reload Speed |
| PvP | Smallbore | Steady Rounds | Dynamic Sway Reduction | High-Impact Reserves | Range |
Corrective Measure, a Void aggressive-frame machine gun, features greater damage and recoil compared to its counterparts, with a consistent fire rate of 600 RPM. The newly introduced perks enhance its potential, allowing players to obliterate adversaries effectively.
In PvE, the perks of Destabilizing Rounds and Demoralize synergize perfectly with Void-centric builds, especially for Hunters employing Gyrfalcon’s Hauberk. If fortunate, acquiring Collective Obligation can further amplify its capabilities through absorbed Void debuffs.
For PvP encounters, a focus on range with Dynamic Sway Reduction and High-Impact Reserves can enhance stability, although heavy weapons might be less accessible in Crucible matches.
Vision Of Confluence (2)
| 1st Column | 2nd Column | 3rd Column | 4th Column | Masterwork | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PvE | Arrowhead Brake | Accurized Rounds | Incandescent | Explosive Payload OR Firefly | Stability |
| PvP | Extended Barrel | Accurized Rounds | Zen Moment OR Outlaw | Kill Clip OR Explosive Payload | Range |
Vision of Confluence is a Solar precision scout rifle boasting a consistent 180 RPM. Known for its solid range and stability, this rifle has consistently performed admirably since its debut in Destiny 1. It is a stalwart rival only to the renowned Hung Jury SR4. The weapon’s new perks showcase its versatility and effectiveness in both PvE and PvP contexts.
In examining the new iterations, the selection of Incandescent in the third column and the challenging choice between Explosive Payload and Firefly in the fourth column stand out for PvE roles. These perks can turn minor enemies into spectacular displays during engagements.
For PvP applications, perks such as Zen Moment or Outlaw provide necessary precision, while Kill Clip rewards skilled players, and Explosive Payload can increase flinch on opponents, enhancing your efficacy in combat. Vision of Confluence offers unparalleled customization among the Vault of Glass weapons.
Fatebringer (1)
The Creme De La Creme
| 1st Column | 2nd Column | 3rd Column | 4th Column | Masterwork | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PvE | Smallbore | Tactical Mag | Explosive Payload | Firefly | Reload Speed |
| PvP | Smallbore | Accurized Rounds | Explosive Payload | Magnificent Howl | Range |
Fatebringer, undoubtedly one of the most coveted (Legendary) weapons throughout the game’s history, features outstanding stats and exceptional perks, maintaining its status as a top-tier choice since the earliest days of Destiny.
With the introduction of crafting for Fatebringer, acquiring the ideal roll—such as a 5/5 configuration that includes Explosive Payload and Firefly—is now within reach without the endless grind of defeating Master Templar repeatedly.
Explosive Payload is a fundamental perk for Fatebringer, complementing Firefly’s reload speed benefit post-precision kill. Together, these enhance damage output effectively. Additionally, the craftable roll featuring Magnificent Howl increases the weapon’s damage and range depending on the number of precision kills achieved before reloading, rewarding skilled marksmanship with increased firepower.
