Cataphract GL3 is a heavy grenade launcher, which you can pick up from Trials of Osiris. Heavy grenade launchers recently got a major buff, so this one is going to be a useful addition to your arsenal. Today I want to take a closer look at the Cataphract GL3, the stats, perks, god rolls for PVP and PVE, plus how to get the Cataphract GL3 in Destiny 2.

How to get Cataphract GL3

To get this one you’ll want to play Trials of Osiris. You can get this as a random reward from the end of Trials matches, or you can get an Adept version by going Flawless (winning 7 matches, no losses) and going to the Lighthouse when it’s the featured weapon of the week. I do a Trials guide each week telling you the map and the adept rewards, so subscribe to EndgameXpress to never miss a trials update.
