How to get the Lodestar Catalyst – Destiny 2

In Destiny 2, Episode 3: Heresy introduced a fresh Exotic Trace Rifle called Lodestar. If you’ve managed to grab this rifle, you’re likely interested in unlocking its Catalyst. Fortunately, the process is straightforward and can be completed even if you’ve joined after the episode has ended.

How to get the Lodestar Catalyst

In simpler terms, the Lodestar Catalyst is a prize you earn when you reach rank 145 on the Heresy Season Pass. For those playing after the Heresy ends, Bungie has revised this reward so that all Exotic Catalysts from previous seasons will automatically be unlocked. Additionally, any catalysts missed can be obtained from the Monument to Lost Lights in the Tower.

As a gamer in Destiny 2, finding myself at rank 145 in Act 2, I realized that this catalyst was time-restricted. It seems like future seasons or expansions might adopt a similar strategy, delaying my ability to fully upgrade a weapon until the storyline has advanced to a particular stage.

What does the Lodestar Catalyst do?

Regarding the function of the Lodestar catalyst, it grants the Supercharged Matrix perk. When using your Arc subclass’s ability, the Lodestar significantly boosts its reload speed, aim assist, and movement speed while aiming down sights. This enhancement will make you more nimble when locking on to an enemy with this Trace Rifle, potentially increasing its damage per second due to the faster reload.

As a dedicated fan, with the Lodestar Catalyst now within my grasp, I’m one step closer to crossing every task off my list!
