Chroma Rush God Roll

Celebrations are in full swing among Destiny 2 Guardians with the release of the new Episode: Revenant. A major highlight is the comeback of a widely beloved weapon: Chroma Rush. This kinetic auto rifle, initially introduced during the Season of the Splicer in 2021, quickly won over the player base with its impressive performance and rapid-fire capabilities. Its reappearance brings excitement as it returns with enhancements including new perks and improved characteristics.

The Chroma Rush now boasts an array of features that enhance its adaptability in various gameplay scenarios. With updates and a slight boost to auto rifles in general, it stands out as an exceptional choice for players. This introduction sets the stage for exploring the optimal configurations, known as god rolls, that maximize its potential and offers guidance on how to obtain this weapon in Destiny 2.

What are the Ideal Traits for Chroma Rush in Destiny 2?

Prime Attributes for PvE Use

For PvE engagements, an optimal build for Chroma Rush combines Polygonal Rifling for the barrel, ensuring smooth handling and precision. The magazine section benefits from Extended Mag, which although slightly hampers reload speed, provides ample ammunition. The core perk combination of Subsistence and Rampage enhances prolonged engagements by refilling the magazine and boosting damage with each kill. This combo transforms Chroma Rush into an efficient force against waves of enemies.

Alternatively, for those looking for additional area-of-effect impact and damage, Kinetic Tremors serves as a viable choice. The addition of the Splicer Surge trait mitigates the reload speed drawback, keeping the weapon in action during intense firefights.

Prime Attributes for Competitive Play

In the PvP realm, Chroma Rush shines with different configurations. Smallbore for the barrel increases both stability and range—key elements in competitive matches. Accurized Rounds are chosen for the magazine, further enhancing range. Regarding perks, Tunnel Vision paired with Kill Clip allows for rapid firing with improved target acquisition and increased damage post-reload. This combination optimizes the weapon for competitive scenarios, leveraging fast targeting and powerful follow-up shots.

Dynamic Sway Reduction is another first-column option aiding stability throughout engagements, while Target Lock in the second column can amplify kill potential. Players should consider prioritizing range through barrel optimization or weapon masterworking to fully exploit the auto rifle's capabilities.

Acquiring Chroma Rush in Destiny 2 Episode: Revenant

To obtain the Chroma Rush, players need to participate in the Onslaught: Revenant events, which are accessible from the Last City. Utilizing a Tonic of Vintage Onslaught Weaponry is advised beforehand, as it boosts the likelihood of acquiring an additional Chroma Rush copy. While crafting the Chroma Rush isn't possible, players can enhance the weapon after obtaining a desired roll, providing access to enhanced perks for each column. This enhancement also permits the use of new weapon mods available in this episode, particularly those enhancing handling and range, further optimizing the weapon's performance.
