As a seasoned Guardian with countless hours spent traversing the cosmos and vanquishing hordes of alien scum, I can confidently say that the Prophet of Doom shotgun is a game-changer for any Arc-wielding player out there. This bad boy isn’t just another pretty face in your arsenal; it’s a versatile tool capable of dishing out Arc damage like it’s going out of style, making quick work of both PvE enemies and Crucible opponents alike.
Prophet of Doom is one of those Shotguns every Arc player will want to have in their build. Boasting Arc damage and a Precision Frame, this thing is capable of leaning hard into the Arc verbs or simply being a tool used to melt high-tier enemies, in both PvE and Crucible.
How to get Prophet of Doom
As a gamer, I’ve discovered that the Prophet of Doom is a chance reward from the second battle in the Garden of Salvation raid. By gathering five items with a red border, you can craft an ideal god-roll version at the Relic within the Enclave. For more details on drops, check out our loot table for the Garden of Salvation.
Prophet of Doom god roll – PvE
For PvE players, there are several desired configurations of the Prophet of Doom god rolls. This is because it can be equipped with Trench Barrel, One-Two Punch, and Voltshot in its final column.
| Prophet of Doom god roll – PvE | |
|---|---|
| Barrel | Corkscrew Rifling (Stability +5, Range +5, Handling +5) |
| Magazine | Accurized Rounds (Range +10) |
| Perk 1 | Reconstruction (This weapon slowly reloads itself over time, up to double capacity) |
| Perk 2 | Trench Barrel (After a successful melee hit, this weapon gains increased damage, handling, and reload speed for a short duration – or until three shots are fired) |
| Origin Trait | Photoinhibition (This weapon deals bonus damage to combatant shields and targets with overshields. Breaking a combatant’s shield disorients them; breaking an energy-matched shield also disorients nearby combatants). |
| Masterwork | Handling (+10 when fully masterworked) |
| Mod | Backup Mag |
Start by using Spiral Grooves Barrel and Precision Bullets ammo for an improvement in Stability, Handling, and Distance performance. Add the Handling Bonus Perk as an upgrade to compensate for the weapon’s slow aim-down-sight speed.
Regarding the primary benefits, Reconstruction stands out as the top choice in the first category. Some others offer reloading capabilities too, but Reconstruction operates autonomously, leaving you free to focus on other tasks. The last option will largely depend on your personal playstyle. If you prefer weapon-based damage, opt for Trench Barrel. If your build supports high melee damage, One-Two Punch might be more suitable. For managing waves and taking down enemies, Voltshot could be the best fit.
Prophet of Doom god roll – PvP
In simpler terms, a well-rolled Prophet of Doom for Player vs Player (PvP) will heavily emphasize its range stat, enabling you to score kills beyond the typical battlefield boundaries.
| Prophet of Doom god roll – PvP | |
|---|---|
| Barrel | Rifled Barrel (Range +10, Handling -15) |
| Magazine | Accurized Rounds (Range +10) |
| Perk 1 | Slideways (Sliding partially reloads this weapon’s magazine and temporarily boosts handling and stability) |
| Perk 2 | Closing Time (Improves range, accuracy, and handling as the magazine gets lower) |
| Origin Trait | Photoinhibition (This weapon deals bonus damage to combatant shields and targets with overshields. Breaking a combatant’s shield disorients them; breaking an energy-matched shield also disorients nearby combatants). |
| Masterwork | Handling (+10 when fully masterworked) |
| Mod | Quick Access Sling (Increase this weapon’s ready and stow speed) |
Rifled Barrel offers the greatest range buff with the smallest impact to the weapon’s stats. Smoothbore might offer higher range, but it comes at a considerable cost to the projectile spread. To offset the handling reduction, aim for a handling Masterwork and even a mod that addresses the deficit.
If you enjoy swiftly sliding into kills while sprinting, Slideways is an excellent choice for you. Additionally, the perk Closing Time comes in handy since you’ll often find yourself with less than half of your ammo, ensuring maximum utilization of this potent ability, as it guarantees 100% uptime.
The figure often associated with impending doom is gaining traction once again, as it’s now possible to craft this weapon within the Garden of Salvation. Gather enough red-bordered items to create your own. For additional insights on optimized builds for the Garden of Salvation, check out our Destiny 2 Tactics Guide.
