With the release of Rite of the Nine, multiple Dungeons are receiving a glow-up in the weapons department, one of those being Prophecy. Judgment, Prophecy’s Hand Cannon has received some specific stat-tuning alongside a perk refresh, but is it enough to boost it to relevancy? Here, we’ll discuss how good it is, the god rolls, and how to obtain it.

How good is Judgment
Judgment is a weapon geared towards The Crucible due to the presence of perks like Lone Wolf, Slideshot, Precision Instrument, and more. However, due to how strong and popular other Legendary Adaptive Hand Cannons are, such as Rose, Palindrome, and Exalted Truth, it’s hard to see Judgment jump apart from these weapons in any meaningful way, particularly considering the lower base stats on the weapon. However, due to the sheer variety of available perks and the ability to pick sights, it is an acceptable option.
In PvE, Judgment isn’t anything special. While it can roll with the synergistic Headstone and Rimestealer, it isn’t exactly strong compared to traditional Kinetic 140s like Midnight Coup or Fatebringer. Judgment is C-Tier for PvE and A-tier for PvP.

Judgment Perks and God Rolls
The Judgment Kinetic Hand Cannon can roll with the following perks:
- Perk 1: Demolitionist, Keep Away, Lone Wolf, Headstone, Rapid Hit, and Slideshot.
- Perk 2: Adrenaline Junkie, Paracausal Affinity, Rimestealer, Opening Shot, Timed Payload, and Precision Instrument.
- Origin Trait: Crossing Over and Gravity Well.
Judgment PvE god roll
PvE Roll: All-Around | |
---|---|
Barrel | Fastdraw HCS |
Magazine | Flared Magwell |
Perk 1 | Headstone (also good: Demolitionist) |
Perk 2 | Rimestealer or Timed Payload |
Masterwork | Reload Speed |
Origin Trait | Gravity Well |
Generally speaking, quality of life is king in PvE, so we opt to maximise our Handling and Reload Speed with Fastdraw HCS, Flared Magwell, and a Reload Speed Masterwork. This also benefits Gravity Well’s efficiency.
For your perks, we recommend a combo of Headstone in perk slot one and Rimetealer in perk slot two. However, if you aren’t interested in these perks, we suggest Demolitionist place of Headstone for Grenade recharge, and Timed Payload over Rimestealer for a permanent 11%-17% buff in damage while also staggering enemies further.
Judgment PvP god roll
PvP Roll: All-Around | |
---|---|
Barrel | Hitmark HCS |
Magazine | Accurized Rounds |
Perk 1 | Lone Wolf or Keep Away (also good: Slideshot) |
Perk 2 | Precision Instrument or Opening Shot |
Masterwork | Range or Stability |
Origin Trait | Crossing Over |
In PvP, Range and Stability are generally the most important stats, so Hitmark HCS is ideal as it boosts Range without reducing Stability, and Accurized Rounds grants tons of Range. For the Masterwork, Range and Stability both work fine, and it depends on personal preference.
In perk slot one, there are several fantastic options. Lone Wolf and Keep Away are the ones that stand out to us, but Slideshot is also a great option. For perk slot 2, Precision Instrument and Opening Shot are also both excellent picks, and will come down to personal preference on what you prefer.
How to get Judgment
Judgment is a Rite of the Nine weapon, meaning it will come from Rite of the Nine activities and rewards. Nonary Manifolds can be traded in at the chest to the right of The Emissary for a chance of obtaining Judgment, especially if you attune to it in the Rite of the Nine social space.
Additionally, you will be able to obtain Judgment when Prophecy is the featured Dungeon in the Eternity hub on the Director. You can find the entire Prophecy loot table here.
