Destiny 2 - Auto Rifle Weapon: Primary Weapons Rarity Database

Destiny 2 Auto Rifle Weapon

Destiny 2 Auto Rifle is a weapon that appears in-game. It boasts a high rate of fire but with medium range. Ideally, these weapons work well with those who are confrontational in terms of combat. Classes that are better off using this are Titans and Hunters. Because the Titan requires to constantly be close to the enemy, the Auto Rifle makes a good weapon for them. Hunters also require one as to keep up their damage while constantly evading their enemy.

For Destiny 2, Auto Rifle has several classifications. There’s the Common, Uncommon, Legendary, and Exotic kinds of Auto Rifles. A Destiny 2 Auto Rifle also has different slots: Kinetic and Energy.

Auto Rifles List

*These weapons are sorted by rarity. If new Auto Rifles appear, we’ll be updating this as well. 

Exotic

Exotic Auto Rifles appear more in the Beta than they do in-game. They have an extremely low drop rate, making them coveted by most players. Players can also choose an Exotic Weapon upon completing a particular portion of the game. However, some weapons such as the Cold Heart are only available after pre-ordering it.

Legendary

Legendary Auto Rifles do drop in-game. Similarly to the Exotic, they have a low drop rate. However, they do not need a certain condition to be met unless it’s a quest item. Should the player be unable to procure an exotic auto rifle, a legendary auto rifle can serve as a good substitute.

Rare

The rares are one of the easiest to get. They’re quite a good find especially while you’re midway through a mission and you’re looking for a weapon to swap out of. These weapons drop a little more often than the Legendary and often appear in Decoherent Engrams,. If players find themselves on an uncommon weapon or common weapon then, they should immediately switch it to a rare if they can. This is probably one of the best compromises since it has a higher drop rate.

Uncommon

The Uncommon Weapons are also easy to find. If you have a Common Weapon and you find an Uncommon then, best you replace it. In the long run, the Uncommon will definitely deal more damage. However, you’ll find yourself at a wit’s end if you’re fighting a boss like Irausk or Thumos. With both of them being increasingly chunky, you’re going to need a better weapon.

Common

Common Weapons are better off being thrown or destroyed. They don’t have much to contribute nor do they have much damage.
