Aisha’s Embrace is a brand new Trials of Osiris Scout Rifle that has a Rapid-Fire Frame and deals Void damage in Destiny 2. Scout Rifles are incredibly powerful in Season of the Risen since they have an Anti-Barrier Champion mod, and because Aisha’s Embrace deals Void damage it synergizes nicely with some of the same-type subclass builds in the game. As with every Trials of Osiris weapon, players will have to persistently earn Trials engrams in order to unlock the new Scout Rifle.
Although Saint-14 has a couple of different weapons rewards as part of his vendor rank in Destiny 2, Aisha’s Embrace is only going to be available initially as a randomized reward when players either complete the Trails weekly challenge or decrypt Trials of Osiris engrams with Master Rahool in the tower. After earning the new Scout Rifle the first time, players can visit Saint-14 to exchange a Trials engram, 100 Legendary Shards, and 20,000 Glimmer. Fortunately, Trials of Osiris engrams are easier to earn as Saint-14 offers them as rewards when a player’s vendor rank is increased with him. There are also some weekends where double reputation rank is rewarded in Trials of Osiris, regardless of whether or not players win or lose.
As many players know, Trials of Osiris also offers adept versions of weapons for those who manage to have a flawless card after winning seven matches without losing. Much like Reed’s Regret (Adept) in Destiny 2, Aisha’s Embrace (Adept) can only be earned by visiting the Lighthouse after a flawless card has been earned. Furthermore, only one adept variation of a weapon can be earned from the Lighthouse per weekend that Trials of Osiris is active. This means that Aisha’s Embrace (Adept) will be available to earn for that entire weekend, and not just one time overall.
Destiny 2: Aisha’s Embrace God Roll
The unique perks available for Aisha’s Embrace are what makes the weapon so powerful. The God Roll that players should be after is:
- Arrowhead Brake: Improves recoil control and handling
- Appended Mag: Increases the magazine size
- Triple Tap: Returns one round to the magazine after rapidly landing precision hits
- Fourth Time’s The Charm: Returns two rounds to the magazine after rapidly landing precision hits
Aisha’s Embrace is the first time a weapon in Destiny 2 can be earned with both the Triple Tap and Fourth Time’s The Charm perks in different columns on the same weapon. These perks operate independently of one another, which means the precision hits count for both perks at the same time. Accurate players will be able to nearly triple their magazine size when firing Aisha’s Embrace, making it one of the best Scout Rifles to use in all of Destiny 2‘s endgame activities.
Destiny 2 is available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Google Stadia.
