Hammerhead is a former Forge weapon from the Forsaken era of Destiny 2, and it’s been sunset for nearly 4 years – but it’s back and it’s better than ever thanks to Into The Light and Onslaught. Today I am going to take a closer look at the stats, perks, god rolls, plus how to get Hammerhead in Destiny 2.

How to get Hammerhead

To get this one you’ll want to play Onslaught and it’s a random drop from that activity. If you play legendary difficulty then it’s more likely you’ll get double perks, and more chance for the god roll.

If you want to target farm Hammerhead, then pick up the quest from Arcite in the Hall of Champions and complete that. It’s relatively quick, you’ll have to get machine gun kills and I recommend the Shuro Chi location in the Last Wish raid to get it done quickly. Once you complete this quest, you’ll be able to attune Hammerhead which increases your drop chance by 50%, from the chest next to Shaxx plus drops in Onslaught.

Hammerhead

Hammerhead is a Legendary Power Machine Gun which is an Adaptive Frame meaning it has a well-rounded grip, reliable and sturdy. Looking at the stats we have Impact 41, Range 60, Stability 60, Handling 50, Reload Speed 64, Airborne Effectiveness 6, Rounds Per Minute 450, Magazine 60.

The origin trait here is Indomitability where final blows grant grenade energy when playing a Light subclass or melee energy when playing a Darkness subclass.
