Laser Painter

Stats

The Season of the Deep introduced many weapons that are useful for both PVE and PVP. The Laser Painter, while not the most used linear fusion rifle of the bunch, remains in the top most used weapons in its category for both game modes. It's also a Strand weapon. So, if you wish to get the best out of it, here are the Laser Painter god rolls.

How to Get Laser Painter in Destiny 2

To earn the Laser Painter in Destiny 2, you will have to complete Gambit matches and Gambit challenges. It can also be awarded by ranking up the Drifter progression or even focusing Gambit Engrams at the Drifter. 

Laser Painter God Rolls

Laser Painter PVE God Roll

  • Arrowhead Break
  • Accelerated Coils
  • Clown Cartridge
  • Vorpal Weapon
  • Veist Stinger

Laser Painter carries some great traits that benefit firing sustainability and damage output. Clown Cartridge randomly overflows this weapon from reserves every time the player reloads. Vorpal Weapon ensures that any shots that land on bosses, vehicles, and Guardians with their Super active have an increased damage output. Finally, Accelerated Coils will make the Laser Painter’s charge time faster, and Veist Stinger can potentially reload the magazine and increase the player’s movement speed after damaging an enemy while aiming down sights.

Laser Painter PVP God Roll

  • Hammer-Forged Rifling
  • Accelerated Coils
  • Fragile Focus / Moving Target
  • Harmony
  • Gun and Run

Although the Laser Painter has a variety of traits that are more focused on PVE, it still does have some PVP potential. Both Fragile Focus and Moving Target are great options for your PVP Laser Painter. The first will grant you bonus range as long as your shield remains online, while the second increases your movement speed and target acquisition while aiming down sights. Harmony, on the other hand, rewards the Laser Painter with increased damage and performance after dealing final blows with other weapons. Accelerated Coils works perfectly, in this case, with Gun and Run granting bonus sprint speed after landing rapid kills.
