How to Get Mistral Lift & Its God Roll in Destiny 2

Acquire the Mistral Lift Linear Fusion Rifle in Destiny 2's Dawning Event

The Dawning event in Destiny 2 offers players a chance to earn the exclusive Mistral Lift Linear Fusion Rifle. This guide details how to obtain it, along with a recommended god roll build.

Obtaining the Mistral Lift

The Mistral Lift is a limited-time reward available only during The Dawning event. To acquire it, you'll need to gather resources from Eva Levante:

• Gifts in Return: These are crafted from Dawning holiday treats (like the Neomun-Cake) and gifted to various NPCs.
• Dawning Spirits: Earned by completing daily Dawning quests and bounties from Eva Levante.

Once you've collected one Gift in Return and 25 Dawning Spirits, you can directly purchase the Mistral Lift from Eva. Alternatively, you can purchase a Festive Engram (1 Gift in Return and 10 Dawning Spirits) for a chance to receive it, though this is not guaranteed. Repeat this process until you obtain your desired roll.

Mistral Lift God Roll (PvE Focus)

While Linear Fusion Rifles aren't always meta in Destiny 2, the Mistral Lift excels in PvE, especially for solo players. This build maximizes its potential:

Why this roll? Withering Gaze debuffs enemies, and Bait and Switch provides a significant 30% damage boost (after a brief ADS period). For group play, consider Envious Assassin in place of Withering Gaze. Fluted Barrel, Enhanced Battery, and Handling Masterwork enhance stability and ammo capacity.

PvP Performance: The Mistral Lift is not ideal for PvP due to its inherent limitations as a Linear Fusion Rifle.
