How to Get Mistral Lift in Destiny 2
The Mistral Lift is a limited-time weapon available only during Destiny 2's Dawning event. Acquire it from Eva Levante by trading one "Gift in Return" and 25 Dawning Spirits. Eva also sells Festive Engrams (1 Gift in Return and 10 Dawning Spirits), but these offer a random chance at the Mistral Lift.
Gifts in Return are earned by baking Dawning treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and gifting them to NPCs. Dawning Spirits are the event's currency, obtained through completing daily Dawning quests and bounties from Eva.
Repeat the process of acquiring Gifts and Spirits to obtain the Mistral Lift directly from Eva or via Festive Engrams until you get your desired roll.
Destiny 2 Mistral Lift God Roll
While Linear Fusion Rifles aren't always meta in Destiny 2, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, particularly for solo players. This is the recommended god roll:
Column | Roll |
---|---|
Barrel | Fluted Barrel |
Battery | Enhanced Battery |
Perk 1 | Withering Gaze |
Perk 2 | Bait and Switch |
Masterwork | Handling |
Withering Gaze debuffs enemies, while Bait and Switch provides a 30% damage boost (after aiming down sights for a second). For group play, Envious Assassin can replace Withering Gaze. Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and Handling masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity. While not ideal for PvP, the Mistral Lift's PvE capabilities make it worthwhile.
