How to get Taraxippos in Destiny 2
Taraxippos is an event-specific weapon, tied to the Guardian Games. The only way to acquire this weapon is through the games, with a few different paths to receive the weapon.
You can get a guaranteed drop of Taraxippos by complete the Best in Class questgiven by Eva Levante the first time you visit her while the Guardian Games are active.
THE Talented Scout Event Challengewhich tasks you with defeating a target using a scout rifle, will also reward a guaranteed Taraxippos.
Finally, there is only old-fashioned random luck. If you want to farm Taraxippos in Destiny 2, focus on getting a medallion in the Guardian Games. Each time you return medallions to the podium, there is a chance that Taraxippos will fall. Higher quality medallions have an increased chance, so it’s best to aim for gold and platinum whenever possible.
Season of Defiance is here alongside the We Stand Unbroken quest. You can also unlock two new weapons – the Vexcaliber and Deterministic Chaos – by completing The Variable and Unfinished Business. Don’t forget to keep an eye on the rotation schedule for the Lost Sector and King’s Fall challenges!
Taraxippos God Scroll Recommendation in Destiny 2
Taraxippos is a fast-firing and accurate reconnaissance rifle. He does his best when he repeatedly hits critical points. The best Taraxippos, or “god roll”, builds on this and can work wonders if used in conjunction with a Strand subclass.
here is our recommended god scroll Taraxippos in Destiny 2:
- Arrowhead
- Tactical loader
- The fourth time is the charm
- kill clip
- Superb recovery
Arrowhead is a frequent favorite, for good reason. This increases handling speed and recoil, making it exceptionally easier to sustain accurate shots on target.
Tactical loader adds an extra round to the magazine and increases both stability and reload speed. This is the perfect setup for you to accurately empty a full magazine on one enemy and quickly reload your next to keep dealing damage.
The fourth time is a charm has great synergy with this weapon. For every four consecutive precision shots delivered, two rounds are returned to the magazine. Given how fast and accurate this shot is, these bonus rounds should be coming in constantly, allowing for continuous shooting in both PVP and PVE.
kill clip is one of the best perks in Destiny 2 and is a perfect fit for Taraxippos. Simply reloading shortly after a kill grants a significant damage boost. This is great for wiping out entire groups of low-level enemies when battling Darkness, and can lead to some great multikills in skilled hands in the Crucible.
Superb recovery is one of two selectable original traits. None of the options are exceptional, but Stunning Recovery is excellent in certain situations. With it, stunning a champion will partially refill your magazine, increase recovery, and trigger health regeneration. It’s very situational, but fighting Champions is exactly the kind of situation where it’s nice to have an advantage.
As usual, once you have your favorite jet, be sure to upgrade it to a Masterwork to give it a stat boost, the ability to generate orbs on multiple kills, and add the option of a kill tracker!
