Destiny 2 title is an event-specific weapon available for a limited time.
Introduced in Guardian Games 2022, The Title SMG is a possible and guaranteed quest reward.
If you’re looking for a new SMG in Destiny 2, with the right throw, the title is well worth competing for.

The Title Farm: How to Get the Title in Destiny 2
The title is available exclusively during the Guardian Games, which will begin in 2022.
The limited time event offers a great chance to get this weapon fairly easily, although it will take you a bit longer to get the divine throw.
You can get one guaranteed by completing the Best in Class quest, which is given to you at the start of the event by Eva Levante in the tower, and should take you less than an hour.
To get more rolls of the title, you need to hand in medallions on the Guardian Games podium, where you’ll have a chance for it to drop as a reward.
At launch, a supposed bug prevented this from happening – but on the second day of the event, the title is part of the loot pool for all medallions dropped:
We fixed the following issues:
❖ SMG title will drop randomly with medallion discounts. The higher the medallion, the higher the chance of falling.
❖ Guardian Games playlists will progress weapons and Deepsight levels.
Report it to the help forum if you’re still having trouble.

Finally, be aware that The Title cannot be crafted. This is likely because it’s an event-specific weapon – and so developer Bungie wants to encourage players to participate in the event.
How to Farm Title in Destiny 2
The higher the quality of the medallion (such as gold or platinum), the more likely you are to drop the title.
Short, the best way to cultivate the title is to earn higher quality medals from Contender Cards (purchased with Laurels, which you can get faster by focusing on the Daily Focus playlist) but since it can drop at all levels, it’s also advisable to complete all matchmaking activities (which will grant a medallion at the end).
Since platinum medals require you to play raids and nightfalls – which are longer and more difficult activities – the best balance we can recommend for farming The title goes to Crucible Contender maps – which are cheaper on laurels and give you a gold medallion as a reward – and that, combined with the medals you get for completing activities (the Crucible being the fastest to complete) is the best overall solution.
The list of titles
The title will have the same origin trait on all casts – which is Classy Contender (finishing hits grant class ability energy). Beyond that, the possible benefits include:
Barrel | Magazine | Advantage 1 | Advantage 2 |
---|---|---|---|

Guardian Games is here! Find out where to find the Daily Focus playlist and get the title. For The Witch Queen, get acquainted with the latest Exotics and our updated leveling guide. Late last year, we saw Bungie’s 30th Anniversary, which added the Grasp of Avarice dungeon, weird rooms, and new Exotics including the Gjallarhorn and Forerunner.
The title god roll
Apart from the above, our recommended title god roll is Stats for All and One for All for PvE.
Both activate when you damage three separate enemies within three seconds, giving you better handling, stability, reload and range (stats for all) and increased damage (one for all) for a short duration.
These are two perks that go hand in hand and are especially useful since SMGs are best used to take out groups of enemies.
Two other recommendations that work quite similarly are Environment and Threat Detector – which grant temporary buffs when enemies are close (increased damage and increased reload, stability and maneuverability respectively).
It basically gives you similar buffs without firing, and while you could argue SMGs should be used up close, the “for all” perks aren’t much harder to activate and give you stronger buffs.
