Season of the Wish is upon us in Destiny 2! With it comes a slew of new weapons to collect, but this time around it also means a whole heaping of reissued guns as well. One of those sets are some of the Season of the Undying, Vex-themed guns. Naturally that means everyone is itching to get their hands on the new best possible (non-sunset) roll. But early on it can be really hard to know what will perform the best. In this guide, we tell you how to obtain Subjunctive and make some early god roll recommendations for the reissued Destiny 2 Submachine Gun.
We’ve teamed up with Stardust, one of the people behind Clarity - D2 Research, a Destiny 2 project which provides highly trusted explanations of perks, mods, and more for websites like Destiny Item Manager (DIM), Light.gg, Foundry, and more! With his extensive knowledge and experience studying weapons in depth for thousands of hours and keeping a close eye on the meta at all times at every level, he’s more than qualified to make these selections.
How to Obtain
Subjunctive drops from Season of the Wish activities. You can specifically focus for it at the Spirit of Riven for four Wish Engrams and 3,000 Glimmer (assuming you've had one drop already) or you can instead opt for a random weapon engram and hope its Subjunctive for the reduced price of two Wish engrams and 3,000 Glimmer.
About Subjunctive
Subjunctive is a Legendary Arc Submachine Gun of the Lightweight Frame archetype. This means it has better handling and allows you to move faster with the weapon equipped.
It sports the Nano-Munitions Origin Trait which makes it so that being near allies slowly builds up a partial emergency ammo refill for the next time it runs out of ammo. The amount of emergency ammo increases with time spent near allies. Definitely something that's not optimal for solo players.
The weapon was originally sunset when Beyond Light launched which means it's been a few years since it's been viable in higher Power activities.
Subjunctive PVE God Roll
Our recommended PVE god roll for this new Arc Submachine Gun is below. It's a pretty run-of-the-mill weapon so our choices are pretty straightforward. If you're feeling spicy, you can run Enhanced Swashbuckler which gets extended duration when paired with Threat Detector in melee builds. It's essentially One for All as long as you have enemies around.
Best PVE Perks by Column Number
- Smallbore
- Flared Magwell
- Stats for All or Threat Detector
- Voltshot or One for All or Golden Tricorn
Subjunctive PVP God Roll
Subjunctive is simply not a good SMG in Crucible and we recommend using something else.
