by | Oct 8, 2024

Insurmountable is one of the few Void Precision Frame Sidearms to be added to Destiny 2, and Sidearm fans are finally excited to have another precision option in their arsenal. Here is how to get it, the god rolls on the gun, and how good it is.

How good is Insurmountable

Precision Frame Sidearms aren’t terribly popular among the community, but this is the first ‘modern’ option that has been added, as previous options haven’t come with some subclass-specific perks like Repulsor Brace or Desperate Measures.

For PvP, there are a couple of options available for general dueling. To The Pain, Air Trigger, or some of the new perks like Lone Wolf or Closing Time. As it is in the energy slot, it may be popular to pair with some good Kinetic options like Chaperone, or any kinetic slot Sniper Rifle you may be a fan of. Overall, Insurmountable is A Tier in PvE and A Tier in PvP.

Insurmountable Perks & God Rolls

The Insurmountable Sidearm can roll with the following perks:

  • Perk 1: Attrition Orbs, Demolitionist, Air Trigger, Lone Wolf, Repulsor Brace, To The Pain, and Threat Detector.
  • Perk 2: One For All, Surrounded, Rampage, Closing Time, Harmony, Destabilising Rounds, and Desperate Measures.
  • Origin Trait: Dark Ether Reaper

Insurmountable God Rolls, Destiny 2

Insurmountable PvE god rolls

PvE Roll: All-Around
Barrel Fluted Barrel
Magazine Flared Magwell
Perk 1 Demolitionist (also good: Repulsor Brace)
Perk 2 Desperate Measures (also good: Destabilising Rounds or One For All)
Masterwork Reload Speed

The combination of Fluted Barrel and Flared Magwell on a primary ammo weapon is very standard, as these options both provide a good quality-of-life boost to both Handling and Reload Speed.

Demolitionist is the ideal pick for Perk slot one; however, some may get more mileage out of Repulsor Brace if you are using a Void Build. Desperate Measures works well in the second perk slot with Demolitionist, but Destabalising Rounds should be used if you are using Repulsor Brace. One For All is a general damage perk that can be swapped instead of Desperate Measures.

Insurmountable PvP god rolls

PvP Roll: All-Around
Barrel Smallbore
Magazine Ricochet Rounds
Perk 1 To The Pain (also good: Lone Wolf)
Perk 2 Closing Time
Masterwork Range or Stability

Smallbore and Ricochet Rounds both grant a good amount of Stability, as well as a little bit more Range, making Insurmountable much nicer to use.

To The Pain and Closing Time both are good consistency perks for duellng. This makes Insurmountable scale very well as the fight continues, as To The Pain activates based on damage received, and Closing Time improves some qualities of the gun as the magazine decreases. Lone Wolf is also good, as it grants some simple stat bonuses that are improved when you’re alone.
