Peregrine Greaves is one of the handful of Exotics that received significant buffs with the release of Season of the Wish (S23). The updates always looked good on paper, but now that we’ve got our hands on it, we can confidently say that Peregrine Greaves is now top-tier.
Today, we’ll show you how to acquire this Titan Exotic and put together one of the best Titan builds in Destiny 2.
How to get the Peregrine Greaves Exotic
As an Exotic from Year 1 of Destiny 2, Peregrine Greaves can be acquired as a random Exotic drop. The best and most efficient farming methods are:
- Legend Lost Sectors during Leg days
- Vex Strike Force events (as they work on a knockout system)
In parallel, you should visit Xur every weekend and purchase his Fated Engram, as they too work on a knockout system and will always reward you with an Exotic you don’t already have. We cover Where is Xur here.
