As a seasoned Guardian who’s been through countless battles across the cosmos, I can confidently say that the Festival of the Lost has never felt so enticing! The Arcane Embrace, this Heavy Burst archetype Shotgun, is a delightful treat for all us Shotgun fans.
The Festival of the Lost returns once more, offering an exciting new treat for fans of the shotgun! Meet Arcane Embrace, a Heavy Burst archetype that delivers a powerful two-round burst. This Arc Shotgun comes equipped with several perks, making it ideal for numerous god rolls in both PvE and PvP engagements.
How to get Arcane Embrace
In Destiny 2, the enigmatic artifact Arcane Embrace can be obtained annually during the Festival of the Lost. Players can acquire it through Eerie Engrams distributed by Eva Levante, either as a reward for completing Haunted Sector activities or by finishing certain quests. Additionally, you can utilize the Engram Focusing ability to boost your chances of receiving a tailor-made god roll for yourself.
Arcane Embrace god roll – PvE
For the specific Arcane Embrace setup, it emphasizes leveraging your melee skill to boost Shotgun damage and bypass annoying reload sequences.
| Arcane Embrace god roll – PvE | |
|---|---|
| Barrel | Fluted Barrel (Stability +5, Handling +15) |
| Magazine | Flared Magwell (Reload Speed +15, Stability +5) |
| Perk 1 | Grave Robber (Melee final blows or dealing damage with a charged melee reloads this weapon’s magazine from reserves) |
| Perk 2 | Swashbuckler (This weapon gains increased damage from melee kills and kills with this weapon) |
| Origin Trait | Search Party (This weapon is granted faster aim down sights speed and movement speed while aiming down sights when no allies are near) |
| Masterwork | Handling (+10 when fully masterworked) |
| Mod | Heavy Ammo Finder Enhancement (Grants increased Heavy Ammo Finder progress with this weapon’s final blows) |
Since Arcane Embrace can only have one shell at a time, it’s crucial to maximize the use of Grave Robber. In situations where you run out of ammo, attacking a low-level enemy with melee attacks will kill them and reload your gun, while also triggering the bonus damage from Swashbuckler.
The remaining benefits would ideally be used to enhance the weapon’s feel, primarily focusing on its handling. This improvement is expected to provide a smoother user experience. Meanwhile, Flared Magwell serves to boost your reload speed, especially when there are no enemies around for immediate melee attacks.
Instead, consider opting for “Fourth Time’s the Charm” in the first column to recover some ammo after scoring precise shots. Combine this with “Precision Instrument” to guarantee that your critical hits inflict more damage. However, remember that you will need to reload between each activation of Fourth Time’s the Charm.
You might also prefer Surrounded for the immense damage boost, though it does require there to be three enemies near you, or Voltshot for the wave clear potential.
Arcane Embrace god roll – PvP
For PvP, this special Arcane Embrace gun configuration emphasizes its range significantly. With its two-shot burst, enemies won’t see it coming, and they’ll be struck from quite a distance by each shot, leaving them bewildered.
| Arcane Embrace god roll – PvP | |
|---|---|
| Barrel | Hammer-Forged Rifling (Range +10) |
| Magazine | Accurized Rounds (Range +10) |
| Perk 1 | Slideshot (Sliding partially reloads this weapon’s magazine and temporarily boosts range and stability) |
| Perk 2 | Closing Time (Improves range, accuracy, and handling as the magazine gets lower) |
| Origin Trait | Search Party (This weapon is granted faster aim down sights speed and movement speed while aiming down sights when no allies are near) |
| Masterwork | Range (+10 when fully masterworked) |
| Mod | Ballistics (Range +6, Stability +6) |
It’s clear that each advantage boosts the range stat almost to its highest level. After utilizing the sliding feature, the increase will be even more noticeable, but it’s optional unless you want to use this mechanism for reloading a single-shot magazine.
As a devoted fan, I can’t help but be thrilled about the fresh introduction of Arcane Embrace in Destiny 2’s gameplay. What makes it even more captivating is its raw power, albeit at the cost of ammo. Pair it with the right perk combinations, and you’ll find yourself tearing through PvE opponents or catching your PvP adversaries off guard with its astonishing range.
