Remember those good old times being excited for those random gold drops which would put a big smile on your face. And all those hours you spend on certain exotic quests and grind away for weeks to get its catalyst or just to unlock something totally cosmetic.
Today we will be talking about some of those exotics that are really known more for their fun aspect than usage and effectiveness. Although some weapons may be both effective and fun at the same time. The order is completely random and is not ranked accordingly.
Ruinous Effigy
It’s no surprise that the first weapon is a trace rifle. Trace rifles have always been fun but Ruinous Effigy is truly one of its kind. It’s a Void Trace rifle that turns enemies into transmutation balls on final blows. You can then pick the ball and smash it near a bunch of enemies to disintegrate them all at once or use its alternate fire to form a big bubble around you and cause damage to all the enemies inside the bubble. This weapon is suited for casual content and is not for higher difficulty activity although this season we do have champion modes for trace rifles but, running around with a transmutation sphere in Grandmaster Nightfall may seem straight-up suicidal.
Riskrunner
Anyone who knows what a fun exotic is should have expected to see this weapon on this list. Riskrunner is a 900RPM arc Submachine gun. What makes this weapon special is the Arc conductor, which means whenever a player wielding this weapon is hit with arc energy. This weapon perk gets activated and pretty much turns into an arc laser weapon that will melt enemies and with every final blow, the timer for the arc conductor increases which means as long as you have enemies to kill, you can keep the perk proced as long as you want.
Anarchy
True Destiny 2 Veterans will know the pain of acquiring this weapon from the vaulted raid Scourge of the past. Currently, this weapon is all flair and no spark due to other power weapons overshadowing it. Anarchy is an Arc Grenade launcher, but this weapon is different from other grenade launchers as it fires mines and can chain mines to form certain patterns, and once an enemy triggers this chain, they are usually melted right away. This weapon use to be one of the best area denial tool long before Witherhoard took its place.
