Destiny 2 Wellspring weapon Today: Rotation & Tier list

by Ric Molina | Sep 12, 2023

On top of including an excellent campaign, The Witch Queen expansion also features a new 6-man activity called Wellspring.

And while the activity itself offers good enemy density, daily rotating bosses, and more, most Guardians run it to farm one of the four Wellspring-specific weapons. As all of them are craftable, they remain highly appealing to this day. In this guide, we cover all Wellspring weapons and their daily rotation.

Best Wellspring weapons: Tier list ranking

This table ranks the 4 Wellspring weapons available today. It starts with the top Tier weapons and moves down from there. It also covers both PvE and PvP, with the “Excels in” column clearly identifying where each weapon shines:

Item	Weapons	Type	Archetype	Ammo?	Element?	Requirements	In loot pool?	Rank	Source	Tier rank	Source ❘ DLC	Final Verdict	Released	Perks
Fel Taradiddle	Fel Taradiddle	Combat Bow	Lightweight	Primary	Kinetic	Free-to-Play	Yes	B › Average	Wellspring	Average ❘ B Excels in: PvE	Wellspring Free-to-Play	Slot: Kinetic \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: Lightweight PvE God Roll: Archer's Tempo + Successful Warm-Up (also good: Explosive Head) ► Able to roll with all the best PvE perks possible, Fel Taradiddle is arguably the best Lightweight bow in the entire game. Just try it with Archer's Tempo and Successful Warm-Up and you won't believe its speed.	Season 16	Slot: Kinetic \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: Lightweight PvE God Roll: Archer's Tempo + Successful Warm-Up (also good: Explosive Head)
Father's Sins	Father's Sins	Sniper Rifle	Rapid-Fire	Special	Void	The Witch Queen	Yes	B › Average	Wellspring	Average ❘ B Excels in: PvP	Wellspring Witch Queen	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvP God Roll: Under Pressure + Snapshot Sights ► For being so accessible, it's wild how solid of a pick Father's Sins is. There is an abundance of better snipers for all areas of the game, but this is still an excellent choice for those looking for a temporary pick.	Season 16	Slot: Void \| Ammo: Special \| Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvP God Roll: Under Pressure + Snapshot Sights
Come to Pass	Come to Pass	Auto Rifle	High-Impact	Primary	Arc	The Witch Queen	Yes	B › Average	Wellspring	Average ❘ B	Wellspring Witch Queen	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: High-Impact PvE God Roll: Triple Tap + Adaptive Munitions ► Come to Pass is a decent PvE option with a perk pool containing highlights such as Perpetual Motion + Dragonfly and Triple Tap + Adaptive Munitions. It is otherwise an unremarkable High Impact Frame auto rifle.	Season 16	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Primary \| Archetype: High-Impact PvE God Roll: Triple Tap + Adaptive Munitions
Tarnation	Tarnation	Grenade Launcher	Rapid-Fire	Heavy	Arc	The Witch Queen	Yes	C › Weak	Wellspring	Weak ❘ C	Wellspring Witch Queen	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Heavy \| Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvE God Roll: Clown Cartridge + One For All ► With a weak archetype, poor stats, and an uninspiring perk selection, this is a weapon you can safely ignore...	Season 16	Slot: Arc \| Ammo: Heavy \| Archetype: Rapid-Fire PvE God Roll: Clown Cartridge + One For All

These are the different Tier levels used for this ranking:

S Tier – Best: Highest ranking weapon types.
A Tier – Strong: Very strong weapon types, 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.

How to farm Wellspring weapons

Farming Wellspring weapons is as straightforward as it gets: they only drop from The Wellspring activity in the Throne World destination.

Gaining access to the Wellspring activity

To get access to the 6-man Wellspring activity, you’ll need to own The Witch Queen expansion and have completed the campaign. Once you’ve completed the campaign, you’ll need to visit Fynch in the Throne World destination in order to permanently unlock the Wellspring activity.

Wellspring weapons drop rates

The first few weeks of the Witch Queen expansion were difficult for players looking to farm Wellspring weapons. Wellspring weapons with Deepsight resonance were particularly hard to get.

Probably a bug was preventing these weapons from dropping, but luckily Bungie recognize the issue and has already released a patch to improve the situation:

In a patch targeting next week, we will be increasing the drop chances for weapons in Wellspring, and adding bad luck protection for both getting a standard drop and getting a Deepsight resonate version of a weapon. [4/13]

Are you still farming Wellspring weapons? Or perhaps you are already leveling up your crafted version of your favorite weapon of the lot?

Before you go…

Don’t miss the two other sources of top-tier daily weapons: the brand-new Terminal Overload and Altars of Sorrow.
