As the title stated, we will be receiving new pinnacle weapons in Season of the Forge. Unlike in the previous seasons which only had pinnacle weapons for the Crucible (Luna’s Howl, Reddix Broadsword), some of these weapons will be obtained by completing objectives for strikes and the Gambit game mode. However, the grind won’t be as long as it is in the Crucible.

Season of the Forge Pinnacle Weapons

Mountaintop

The Mountaintop’s unique perk is “Micro-Missile: This weapon fires in a straight line and has a massively increased projectile speed.”

  • In addition to the above benefits, the projectile instantly detonates on the environment instead of bouncing like a traditional grenade launcher, unless you have Sticky Grenades selected.
