Destiny 2 Vault of Glass: All raid weapons, perks, and mods
The Vault of Glass is here, and so are plenty of new perk rolls on classic fan-favorite weapons.
The Vault of Glass raid has finally made its way into Destiny 2, and as a reward for completing its encounters each week, players will be given updated versions of many of the weapons that you could get in the original Vault of Glass. These new versions of the weapons feature brand new perks that make them even more powerful and desirable. The most notable of these is Rewind Rounds, which makes it so that when your weapon's magazine runs empty, you'll get ammo restored to it instantly depending on how many shots you hit. Additionally, players will also be able to get their hands on 11 raid mods specific to Vault of Glass that will improve how effective they are while in the raid itself.
Ultimately, there's a lot of loot available in the raid, and it can all be difficult to keep track of. Don't worry though, because we're here with a roundup of every raid weapon, the possible perks you can get on those weapons, and every raid mod available.
Europa awaits
Beyond Light is the next big expansion for Destiny 2, introducing a new element for Guardians to wield, a new area on the Jupiter moon Europa, a new story, and plenty of loot to go around.
Destiny 2 Vault of Glass: All raid weapons and perks
Here's a complete overview of every weapon available from the Vault of Glass raid, as well as every perk that you can get on those weapons. We'll also recommend some perk rolls that will be effective in PvE or PvP for each weapon.
Fatebringer
Perk column 1 options:

- Osmosis
- Thresh
- Explosive Payload
Perk column 2 options:
- Eye of the Storm
- Kill Clip

For PvE, I recommend Rewind Rounds in the first column and either Frenzy or Firefly in the second column. For PvP, Killing Wind and Kill Clip make a great combo. You could also opt to use Opening Shot for an advantage in long range duels.

- Quickdraw

- Rewind Rounds
- No Distractions
- Moving Target
- Feeding Frenzy
Perk column 2 options:
- Frenzy
- High-Impact Reserves
- Firefly
- Opening Shot
- Adrenaline Junkie
- Kill Clip
In PvE activities, Rewind Rounds and High-Impact Reserves will make a deadly combination for crit-based boss damage. In the Crucible, Quickdraw and Opening Shot will give you a massive advantage in sniper duels. Quickdraw in particular also helps immensely if you need to switch to your sniper quickly in clutch scenarios.
Vision of Confluence
Perk column 1 options:
- Rewind Rounds
- Tunnel Vision
- Wellspring
- Surplus
- Killing Wind
- Zen Moment
Perk column 2 options:
- Firefly
- Disruption Break
- Frenzy
- Kill Clip
- Thresh
- Full Auto Trigger System
There are a lot of good PvE options here. The best roll is Rewind Rounds with Frenzy, Thresh, or Firefly. However, you could also use this weapon as a super-charging machine with the combination of Wellspring and Thresh, or you could use Disruption Break for enhanced shield-busting capabilities. PvP players should aim for Killing Wind and Kill Clip.
Found Verdict
Perk column 1 options:
- Rewind Rounds
- Auto-Loading Holster
- Surplus
- Unrelenting
- Slideshot
- Full Auto Trigger System
Perk column 2 options:
- One-Two Punch
- Frenzy
- Vorpal Weapon
- Demolitionist
- Opening Shot
- Killing Wind
On the PvE side of things, Rewind Rounds and Vorpal Weapon turn this shotgun into a devastating Champion and boss killing machine, although Unrelenting in the first column and Frenzy or One-Two Punch in the second column are also fantastic options if you want health regeneration, improved damage, or a strong melee attack combo. In PvP, Slideshot and Opening Shot reign supreme for the excellent range boost they'll give you in shotgun duels.
Corrective Measure
Perk column 1 options:
- Rewind Rounds
- Feeding Frenzy
- Subsistence
- Surplus
- Dynamic Sway Reduction
- Demolitionist
Perk column 2 options:
- One For All
- Firefly
- Adrenaline Junkie
- Thresh
- Tap the Trigger
- High-Impact Reserves
As far as PvE goes, Rewind Rounds or Feeding Frenzy and Thresh, One For All, or Firefly are easily the best options here. PvP players should shoot for Dynamic Sway Reduction and Tap the Trigger for supreme recoil control and a powerful accuracy buff.
Hezen Vengeance
Perk column 1 options:
- Tracking Module
- Auto-Loading Holster
- Impulse Amplifier
- Overflow
- Quickdraw
- Surplus
Perk column 2 options:
- Vorpal Weapon
- Lasting Impression
- Demolitionist
- Thresh
- Cluster Bomb
- Wellspring
There are two great PvE rolls here — Overflow and Cluster Bomb will allow you to take down hordes of enemies like crazy, while Impulse Amplifier and Vorpal Weapon will destroy bosses. PvP players will want Tracking Module and Cluster Bomb.
Vex Mythoclast
This is the Exotic fusion rifle that you can earn in the Vault of Glass, and its perk, Timeless Mythoclast, shoots individual fusion bolts with each trigger pull instead of a fusion rifle's normal burst. There's also the Temporal Unlimiter perk that gives you stacks of an Overcharge buff with each kill you get. When you're fully Overcharged, you can then hold down the reload button to temporarily turn the Vex Mythoclast into a linear fusion rifle that's capable of long range heavy crit damage. Notably, this weapon uses primary ammo instead of special or heavy ammo.
Destiny 2 Vault of Glass: Timelost weapons
Also available in Vault of Glass are Timelost weapons, which are unique variants of all the weapons listed above that feature a silver aesthetic and have a mod slot players can use to alter the weapon's stats directly. It's anticipating that players will be able to earn these versions of the Vault of Glass weapons by completing the raid on Master difficulty, which is expected to be available on June 6, 2021.
Destiny 2 Vault of Glass: All raid mods
On top of all the weapons listed above, there are also 11 Vault of Glass-specific mods that players can earn while completing the raid. These mods are only active during Vault of Glass runs, but provide the player with powerful enhancements to their Guardian that will make finishing the raid's encounter easier. Here's the name of each mod, as well as what each one does.
- Anti-Oracle: Defeating an Oracle gives you super energy.
- Anti-Praetorian: Defeating a Praetorian gives you super energy.
- Rapid Oracle Disruptor: Your equipped pulse rifles, shotguns, sidearms, submachine guns, and swords deal additional damage to Oracles.
- Vex Breaker: Defeating a Vex with a melee attack has a chance to spawn an Orb of Power. Multiple copies of this mod increase the Super energy granted when those Orbs are picked up.
- Superstructure Striker: While you are standing on a Sync Plate or are near a Conflux, weapon attacks that hit powerful Vex combatants have a high chance to stun those combatants.
- Aggressive Oracle Disruptor: Your equipped auto rifles, fusion rifles, grenade launchers, trace rifles, and rocket launchers deal additional damage to Oracles.
- Vex Destroyer: Defeating a Vex with a grenade attack has a chance to spawn an Orb of Power. Multiple copies of this mod increase the Super energy granted when those orbs are picked up.
- Superstructure Medic: While you are standing on a Sync Plate, or are near a Conflux, weapon attacks that hit powerful Vex combatants have a high chance to create a burst of healing for you and nearby allies.
- Precise Oracle Disruptor: Your equipped bows, hand cannons, linear fusion rifles, scout rifles, and sniper rifles deal additional damage to Oracles in the Vault of Glass.
- Vex Striker: Defeating a Vex with a precision hit has a chance to spawn an Orb of Power. Multiple copies of this mod increase the Super energy granted when those Orbs are picked up.
- Superstructure Defender: While you are standing on a Sync Plate or are near a Conflux, weapon attacks that hit powerful Vex combatants have a high chance to weaken those combatants.
