While most weapons in Destiny 2 can be acquired by completing specific challenges or activities (such as raids, seasonal events, etc.), some weapons only drop randomly while playing the game. This can be seen as a good thing, as they are not locked behind a particularly difficult activity, but on the flip side, they are nearly impossible to farm. These weapons are part of the World loot pool.

This guide covers all the World loot weapons in Destiny 2 and tells you how to best farm them.

Destiny 2 World Loot Tier List: Top-tier Options

This Tier list features the top World loot Legendary weapons for PvE and PvP:

Item	Weapons	Type	Archetype	Ammo?	Element?	Requirements	In loot pool?	Rank	Source	Tier rank	Source ❘ DLC	Final Verdict	Released	Perks	Best of?
Boondoggle Mk. 55	Boondoggle Mk. 55 Submachine Gun	Submachine Gun	Aggressive	Primary	Kinetic	Free-to-Play	Yes	S › Best	World loot pool	Best ❘ S Excels in: PvP	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Kinetic \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: Aggressive PvP God Roll: Encore + Adagio ► While Boondoggle Mk. 55 doesn’t offer much in terms of PvE, the world drop SMG is both novel and potent in The Crucible. As long as you can handle the indirect path to obtaining it, Boondoggle is a great choice for SMG lovers in PvP.	Episode 3	Slot: Kinetic \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: Aggressive PvP God Roll: Encore + Adagio	Top-tier
Negative Space	Negative Space Sword	Sword	Adaptive	Heavy	Solar	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Solar \| Ammo: Heavy \| Archetype: Adaptive PvE God Roll: Relentless Strikes + Surrounded (also good: Whirlwind Blade) ► Similar to the Caretaker, Negative Space comes with Relentless Strikes and Surrounded, with the Whirlwind Blade alternative meaning that it is one of the better options in terms of perks. It is also Solar, and a part of the Adaptive Archetype, making it a solid option for many players.	Season 11	Slot: Solar \| Ammo: Heavy \| Archetype: Adaptive PvE God Roll: Relentless Strikes + Surrounded (also good: Whirlwind Blade)	Top-tier
Truthteller	Truthteller Grenade Launcher	Grenade Launcher	Lightweight	Special	Void	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Lightweight PvE God Roll: Auto-Loading Holster (also good: Field Prep) + Demolitionist ► To this day, Truthteller remains a solid pick for any PvE content. While better void GLs have come into the mix, Truthteller's staying power lies within its perks. Whether it is Auto-Loading Holster + Demo or Field Prep + Swashbuckler, this GL will get the job done.	Season 11	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Lightweight PvE God Roll: Auto-Loading Holster (also good: Field Prep) + Demolitionist	Top-tier
Deafening Whisper	Deafening Whisper Grenade Launcher	Grenade Launcher	Wave	Special	Void	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Wave PvE God Roll: Ambitious Assassin (also good: Lead From Gold) + Auto-Loading Holster ► Now heavily overshadowed by Harsh Language, Deafening Whisper is still a solid pick in the event its usurper eludes you. While it might lack any direct synergy, the old standby of Ambitious Assassin and Auto-Loading means that you'll always have a shot ready to go.	Season 12	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Wave PvE God Roll: Ambitious Assassin (also good: Lead From Gold) + Auto-Loading Holster	Top-tier
Cartesian Coordinate	Cartesian Coordinate Fusion Rifle	Fusion Rifle	Rapid-Fire	Special	Solar	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Solar \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvE God Roll: Lead from Gold + Vorpal Weapon ► As a Solar weapon, Cartesian Coordinate synergizes perfectly with a powerful Solar Heavy weapon to generate lots of Elemental Surges. Plus, featuring solid perks and being part of a competitive weapon frame, Cartesian remains a staple in the energy slot Fusion Rifle meta.	Season 13	Slot: Solar \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvE God Roll: Lead from Gold + Vorpal Weapon	Top-tier
Ros Arago IV	Ros Arago IV Auto Rifle	Auto Rifle	Adaptive	Primary	Void	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: Adaptive PvE God Rolls: Rewind Rounds + Onslaught ► Ros Arago IV gives Breakneck a run for its money with a fantastic perk pool, including Onslaught and Rewind Rounds. With Onslaught, you'll find the firing rate of this weapon to be exceptional, and coupled with Rewind Rounds, your clip will stay loaded, making this an exceptional crowd-control option in PvE.	Season 23	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: Adaptive PvE God Rolls: Rewind Rounds + Onslaught	Top-tier
Marcato-45	Marcato-45 Machine Gun	Machine Gun	Adaptive	Heavy	Strand	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Strand \| Ammo: Heavy \| Archetype: Adaptive PvE God Roll: Demolitonist (also good: Slice) + Hatchling (also good: Onslaught) ► A strand Machine Gun with a unique perk pool, Marcato-45 can be a great support weapon. Combine Slice and Hatchling, and you can really cut down on the damage that enemies are outputting on your fireteam. You can also go for a more straightforward PvE roll in Demolitionist and Onslaught.	Season 23	Slot: Strand \| Ammo: Heavy \| Archetype: Adaptive PvE God Roll: Demolitonist (also good: Slice) + Hatchling (also good: Onslaught)	Top-tier
Crux Termination IV	Crux Termination IV Rocket Launcher	Rocket Launcher	Aggressive	Heavy	Arc	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Heavy \| Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Envious Assassin (also good: Reconstruction) + Surrounded ► With the ability to roll with Surrounded, Crux Termination IV can technically out-damage popular options like Apex Predator and Cold Comfort. Despite this, Surrounded is much harder to keep active compared to Bait and Switch, making it less popular overall.	Season 23	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Heavy \| Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Envious Assassin (also good: Reconstruction) + Surrounded	Top-tier
Maahes HC4	Maahes HC4 Hand Cannon	Hand Cannon	Heavy Burst	Primary	Void	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: Heavy Burst PvE God Roll: Rapid Hit or Repulsor Brace + Frenzy or Destabilizing Rounds ► As with many other Void weapons in the game, Maahes HC4 greatly benefitted from the recent Destabilizing Rounds buff. Despite it not recieving too much press, this weapon is outstanding as both a workhorse option and one to synergize with Void builds.	The Final Shape	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: Heavy Burst PvE God Roll: Rapid Hit or Repulsor Brace + Frenzy or Destabilizing Rounds	Top-tier
Cruoris FR4	Cruoris FR4 Fusion Rifle	Fusion Rifle	Aggressive	Special	Arc	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvE	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Discord (also good: Clown Cartridge) + One for All (also good: Successful Warm-up or Elemental Honing) ► Yet another Aggressive Frame, Cruoris FR4 has a lot to offer. Rolling with Discord means it has "infinite" ammo, and while One for All is the only consistent damage perk, Successful Warm-up or Barrel Constrictor will let you get just as much use out of Discord.	Episode 3	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Aggressive PvE God Roll: Discord (also good: Clown Cartridge) + One for All (also good: Successful Warm-up or Elemental Honing)	Top-tier
Main Ingredient	Main Ingredient Fusion Rifle	Fusion Rifle	Precision	Special	Arc	Free-to-Play	Yes	A › Strong	World loot pool	Strong ❘ A Excels in: PvP	World loot pool Free-to-Play	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Precision PvP God Roll: Under Pressure + High Impact Reserves (also good: Tap the Trigger) ► With great stats and an insane perk selection (that had to be nerfed due to its potency), Main Ingredient is one of the most used weapons in the Crucible right now, and with reason.	Season 11	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Precision PvP God Roll: Under Pressure + High Impact Reserves (also good: Tap the Trigger)	Top-tier

These are the different Tier levels used for our list:

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.

Destiny 2 World loot weapons farm: Where to find them

The World loot pool mostly features returning weapons from Destiny 2’s Year 1. For the most part, these are somewhat average weapons, and you will rarely find yourself craving a specific World loot weapon. But exceptions do appear. Also, some top-tier weapons that were previously connected to an old seasonal activity may end up as part of the World loot pool. The infamous IKELOS-SMG is the perfect example.

World loot pool weapons, Destiny 2

The problem with weapons from the World loot pool is that they are impossible to target-farm. Unlike a raid or dungeon weapon which can be farmed by completing the relevant encounters over and over, World loot weapons aren’t connected to any activity in particular. Plus, the World loot pool is so big, the chances you get the exact weapon you want are slim.

There are other ways to acquire World loot weapons, but these are just as unreliable. Both Xûr and the Gunsmith both offer weapons from the World loot pool every week. Make sure you visit both of them weekly in case they happen to sell the exact weapon you’re looking for.

Is this list of world loot updated as of today? The Arc Goldtusk evades me, I have only 1 Deepsight compatible in my vault and don’t want to waste the Deepsight on it if I can’t get 4 more. NO other site lists it ANYWHERE except from the generic text in-game under its collections tab as “Source: Open Legendary engrams and earn faction rank-up packages”.
