Destiny 2 Catalysts: All 58 Catalysts and How to Get Them

Exotic catalysts are some of the most sought after items in Destiny 2.

Unlike legendary weapons, some Exotics can be dramatically enhanced by their catalyst. Granted, some catalysts are duds, barely improving a weapon, but others can be game-changing, able to take an Exotic to an entirely new level.

But as with most things in Destiny 2, it’s hard to keep track of all the Exotics and catalysts in the game: Which Exotics have a catalyst? How can you get them? Are they even worth it?

What is a Catalyst? Catalysts allow you to “upgrade” Exotic weapons by granting them either more stat points, a new perk, or both.  Note that not every Exotic weapon has a Catalyst and every Catalyst needs to be first found and then unlocked.

Our Exotic Tier list covers all the Exotic weapons. It explains how to get them, what they do, and more. That’s a good place to start. This guide focuses on the Catalysts themselves and tells you how to get them, how to unlock them, and what effect they grant.

In the table below, we cover and rank every Exotic Catalyst in the game.

Destiny 2 Exotic Catalyst list: All 58 available in 2021

List updated as of Season of the Lost (S15).  

These are the different Tier levels used for the table below:

• S Tier – Best: Highest ranking weapons in our Tier List.
• A Tier – Strong: Very strong weapons, but not on the same level as S Tier Choices.
• B Tier – Average: Decent choices that can be lethal in the hands of a skilled player.
• C Tier – Weak: The middle of the pack, somewhat mediocre.
• D Tier – Worst: Lagging behind the competition, these don’t have much to offer.

For the sake of clarity, the ranking below focuses on the benefits of each Catalyst but is also influenced by the weapons themselves. For example, the best Catalysts can be considered S Tier because they bring significant improvements to already great weapons:

About the Destiny Content Vault (DCV)

The DCV was a big deal. In Bungie’s words:

Each year, usually at the expansion boundaries, we will cycle some destination and activity content out of the game (and into the DCV) to make room for new experiences.

Close to 50% of the game was “vaulted” and put into the DCV with the release of Beyond Light on November 10, 2020. This means that roughly half of the locations, activities, and gear were removed from the game and cannot be experienced anymore.

A comprehensive list including everything that went away would be too long to cover here, but when it comes to Exotic quests, and Catalysts, this is everything you need to know:

Exotic catalysts effectively removed from the game

Several Catalysts became unavailable on November 10, 2020, with the launch of the Beyond Light Expansion. Most have returned, except the following 2:

1. Outbreak Perfected
2. Whisper of the Worm

Bungie does clarify the following:

If you have these Catalysts already equipped and their objectives completed, you can continue using them at your leisure.

Now that several Catalysts have returned, these are some I would recommend chasing in case you have very limited playtime:

• Izanagi’s Burden if you’re in need of an excellent PVE weapon
• Dead Man’s Tale if you’re looking for a great PVP option

Your Turn

When I first got into Destiny 2, Exotic Catalysts were some of the most mysterious items for me. Where do they come from? Do you have to find them and then unlock them? Granted, by themselves, Catalysts are not overly complicated, it’s just another system that is hardly explained in-game.

With this guide, hopefully, all of your questions have been answered and you should have all the information you need to know what Catalysts you want and how you can go about finding them.

Beyond Light did add a couple of new Catalysts to chase. But in parallel, it removed a lot of them. It’s therefore great to see that Bungie found quick methods to re-introduce them, just as they did with Exotic weapons and the Monument to Lost Lights.

So which are your favorite Exotic Catalysts? Let me know in the comments section below!

Latest changes

Things change fast in Destiny 2, especially the Meta. The weapons we call the best one day can completely change the next, in this applies to Exotic Catalysts too. All it takes are a few minor changes on Bungie’s end. For that reason, this ranking will be updated at least once per season.

Changes introduced this season:

The following exotic catalysts were added to the ranking:

• Lorentz Driver catalyst
• Ager’s Scepter catalyst
• Traveler’s Chosen catalyst

Finally, a few “Drops from” entries have been updated to reflect their move to the Monument to Lost Lights or Deluxe Edition requirements.
