As a seasoned Guardian with countless hours spent traversing the cosmos in Destiny 2, I’ve seen my fair share of weapons that have left me cold and others that have ignited my fire. The Rake Angle, a new Stasis-infused Glaive, falls squarely into the latter category.
In Destiny 2, the Rake Angle is a freshly introduced Glaive called Rake Angle, boasting Stasis damage and an Aggressive archetype. Daring adventurers who conquer Grandmaster Nightfalls can obtain an enhanced version, the Adept Rake Angle. However, even the regular version offers several top-tier builds, suitable for both PvE and PvP enthusiasts.
Rake Angle god roll – PvE
With the appropriate build, a well-crafted Rake, particularly this god roll, excels significantly due to its Stasis-focused nature, heavily emphasizing Stasis abilities.
| Rake Angle god roll – PvE | |
|---|---|
| Haft | Tempered Truss Rod (Handling +15, Reload Speed -5, Range -5) |
| Magazine | Light Mag (Reload Speed +10, Range +5) |
| Perk 1 | Rimestealer (Destroying a Stasis crystal or defeating a frozen target with this weapon grants you Frost Armor) |
| Perk 2 | Chill Clip (Direct hits with the top half of the magazine cause a detonation that slows nearby targets) |
| Origint Trait | Vanguard’s Vindication (Final blows with this weapon grant a small amount of health) |
| Masterwork | Handling (+10 when fully masterworked) |
| Mod | Backup Mag (Magazine +1) |
These additional features (perks, magazine, etc.) are designed to enhance the control aspect of the item for a smoother user experience. Once it’s optimized, you’ll effortlessly slice through opponents and discharge projectiles without any hesitation.
With the exciting advantages, Rake Angle can team up with Rimestealer and Chill Clip. These duo function seamlessly, making you almost invincible. The Chill Clip will freeze enemies, and shattering them results in Frost Armor for you. It’s a powerful combination that could help you endure challenging battles.
If you prefer a different approach instead of focusing on Stasis, opting for pure damage might be more suitable. The last column offers two intriguing traits: Surrounded and Swashbuckler. These can independently increase your damage by over 30 percent. Additionally, it boasts attractive ammunition bonuses, such as Lead From Gold and Overflow.
Rake Angle god roll – PvP
If you’ve been eagerly anticipating the Deviance god roll coming up, but couldn’t secure one from Salvation’s End, then this PvP optimized Rake Angle build could be a suitable alternative for you.
| Rake Angle god roll – PvP | |
|---|---|
| Haft | Ballistic Tuning (Range +15, Shield Duration -10, Charge Time -10) |
| Magazine | Accurized Rounds (Range +10) |
| Perk 1 | Impulse Amplifier (Passively grants: 35 percent increased projectile velocity, Reload Speed +20 and 0.8x reload duration multiplier) |
| Perk 2 | Unstoppable Force (After blocking damage: 20 percent increase projectile damage for four seconds or until no longer blocking) |
| Origint Trait | Vanguard’s Vindication (Final blows with this weapon grant a small amount of health) |
| Masterwork | Range (+10 when fully masterworked) |
| Mod | Quick Access Sling (Decreases ready and stow animation by 10 percent) |
In essence, this roll is designed to prioritize both range and damage. By increasing your range, each shot from the Glaive will go farther, allowing you to catch off guard players who believe themselves to be secure.
With Unstoppable Force, you can add an extra layer of protection by blocking some incoming attacks. Then, boost your next projectile’s damage by 20%. This is particularly effective when your allies are attacking a weakened enemy.
The Innovative Rake Glaive fits perfectly with Stasis-based setups. Don’t forget to explore Grandmaster Nightfalls when this weapon becomes accessible, as it presents an opportunity to strive for the ideal divine configuration tailored to your playstyle.
