Introduction
Hey there fellow guardians! As a Destiny 2 player, I know the importance of having the right weapons in my arsenal. In this article, I’ll be discussing the best secondary weapons in the game, based on my personal experiences, expert opinions, surveys, and data analysis.
Before we dive in, let’s take a look at some interesting facts and statistics about Destiny 2 secondary weapons:
- There are over 60 secondary weapons in the game
- The most popular type of secondary weapon is the shotgun, followed by fusion rifles and snipers
- The highest damage dealing secondary weapon is the shotgun

My Personal Experience
As a PvP player, I prefer using shotguns as my secondary weapon. They’re great for close-range encounters and can take down opponents quickly. My go-to shotgun is the Mindbender’s Ambition, which has a high range and impact.
For PvE activities, I like to use fusion rifles like the Jotunn or snipers like the Whisper of the Worm. These weapons have great range and can deal massive damage to bosses.
Of course, everyone has their own playstyle and preferences, so what works for me may not work for you. It’s important to experiment with different weapons and find what suits your playstyle best.
Expert Opinions
To get a better understanding of which secondary weapons are the best, I reached out to some expert Destiny 2 players and content creators.
The Mindbender’s Ambition shotgun is definitely one of the best in the game, says Aztecross, a popular Destiny 2 YouTuber. It has great range and impact, making it a great choice for both PvP and PvE activities.
Another expert, Datto, recommends the Recluse submachine gun. It’s a great weapon for clearing out groups of enemies, he says. The perk that increases damage after a kill makes it even more deadly.
Based on expert opinions, it’s clear that the Mindbender’s Ambition and Recluse are two of the best secondary weapons in the game.

The top three most used secondary weapons among respondents were:
