What Do You Need to Get Cloudstrike?
Getting Cloudstrike, the coveted Exotic Sniper Rifle in Destiny 2, requires dedication and a bit of luck. In this article, we’ll break down the requirements and strategies to increase your chances of obtaining this highly sought-after weapon.
Do All the Variks Sabotage Challenges
To get Cloudstrike, you need to do all the Variks Sabotage challenges until you can’t unlock anymore. This is the most crucial step in acquiring Cloudstrike. Variks, the Exo Stranger, will provide you with quests and challenges that will test your skills and strategy.
A Hard Rain Falls Quest
Before you can start the Variks Sabotage challenges, you need to complete the A Hard Rain Falls quest from the Exo Stranger. This quest will prepare you for the challenges ahead and give you a taste of what’s to come.
Difficulty Levels Don’t Matter
The difficulty level of the encounters doesn’t affect the drop rate of Cloudstrike. Whether you play on Adept, 1180, 1220, 1250, or 1280 difficulty, the chances of getting Cloudstrike remain the same.
How Many Runs Does it Take?
It’s difficult to predict exactly how many runs it takes to get Cloudstrike, but around 15 attempts is a reasonable estimate. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t get it immediately – keep trying, and eventually, you’ll get lucky.
Farm the Weekly Empire Hunt
Farm the weekly Empire Hunt if all you want is Cloudstrike. The weekly featured raid and dungeon are part of the rotation, which means they become fully farmable, offering a chance to get Cloudstrike and other legendary drops.
Are Dungeons in Destiny 2 Farmable?
Yes, every week, a different raid and dungeon are part of the weekly rotation, making them fully farmable. Legendary drops in both raids and dungeons are farmable when they are featured.
Are All Destiny 2 Raids Farmable?
Not all raids in Destiny 2 are farmable. Master difficulty is only available when the raid is the weekly featured raid. Armor focus (high-stat armor) is only available on Master difficulty, which makes it a bit more challenging to get.
Conclusion
Getting Cloudstrike requires patience, persistence, and a bit of luck. By completing the A Hard Rain Falls quest, doing all the Variks Sabotage challenges, and farming the weekly Empire Hunt, you’ll increase your chances of getting this elusive weapon. Remember, the difficulty level doesn’t matter, and you may need around 15 attempts to get it. Good luck, Guardians!
