The Crux Termination IV is a Rocket Launcher added in Destiny 2 Season of the Wish. It might not have the same blasting power as some picks like the Apex Predator and Cold Comfort, but it has a few notable rolls that players might want to try out.
Destiny 2 Players Delete Raid Boss With Reworked Exotic
Destiny 2 players can quickly defeat a raid boss with one of the game’s newly reworked Exotic armor pieces in Season of the Wish.
Rocket Launchers are in a good place in Season of the Wish thanks to the return of Argent Ordnance in the seasonal artifact. Guardians who want to demolish bosses as quickly as possible can use a weapon like the Crux Termination IV to devastating degrees. Here’s how to get this new Destiny 2 Rocket Launcher as well as a list of the perk rolls players should be looking for.
Best Crux Termination IV Perks
While some players might be dismayed at the absence of Bait and Switch on the Crux Termination’s perk pool, this doesn’t mean that this weapon is worse than other meta Rocket Launchers. This weapon can roll with perks that can put it on par with the likes of Apex Predator. The best perk rolls for the Crux Termination:
- Clown Cartridge/Bipod
- Reconstruction/Bipod
- Slideshot/Explosive Light
Bipod reduces the damage dealt by individual rockets by 25%. This may sound bad on paper, but it actually results in more damage overall compared to Bait and Switch thanks to all the extra rockets players get to shoot. Not only does the perk give one extra rocket in the tube, but it also bumps rocket reserves by five, boosting the base total amount from seven to 12. If paired with an ammo perk like Clown Cartridge and Reconstruction, players will be able to continuously unleash salvos of explosive death onto their enemies.
Destiny 2: How To Complete The Focused Intention Challenge
Focused Intention is one of the easier seasonal challenges in Destiny 2, and clearing it is a great way to earn a large chunk of XP early.
Slideshot and Explosive Light is also a strong perk combo. The former effectively removes the need to reload the weapon while the latter boosts Impact and Explosion damage of rockets by 25% after players pick up an Orb of Power. However, Slideshot can be a bit difficult to use in a raid scenario where six Guardians in a Well of Radiance are trying to shoot a boss down with rockets. Players can easily get themselves killed with their own rocket if the fireteam is constantly moving around in front of each other.
The Crux Termination IV is an Aggressive Frame Arc Rocket Launcher, which means it deals more impact damage compared to other frames of the same gun family. Impact Casing is highly recommended for these types of weapon as it offers a small damage increase with no real drawback.
Unfortunately, this weapon is part of the world loot pool. The best way to farm for world loot drops is to double-dip on the Terminal Overload event chest on Neomuna. While the event itself takes a while to complete, players are at least able to reap its rewards twice (or even thrice) by racing to a different map zone and returning to the chest shortly after the activity’s completion.
