Look out for a Destiny 2 Slammer god roll if you’re farming Nightfall Strikes, as this rare Stasis sword has some potent perk combinations. It’s very easy to optimize The Slammer for boss damage with Bait And Switch, but you can take it in a few other directions thanks to the other perks available, notably the Stasis sword-exclusive perk Cold Steel. Getting this Nightfall weapon to drop inDestiny 2isn’t easy, but it’s a worthy armament to slot into Stasis builds. Here are the perks and god rolls I recommend for The Slammer in Destiny 2.

The Slammer is a pretty versatile sword in Destiny 2, and it’s one of the few Stasis-damage swords available. However, getting a god roll isn’t easy as you need to farm it like any of the otherDestiny 2 Nightfall weaponsby repeatedly running these tougher Strikes. While you’re running Nightfalls, here’s one god roll for the Slammer that I recommend you look for:

It’s quite a basic Slammer god roll, focusing purely on substantially upping your damage through having the right Blade perk, Swordmaster’s Guard for frequent heavy attacks, and Bait And Switch – even the rightDestiny 2 Adept modhelps. Meanwhile, Relentless Strikes helps with The Slammer’s ammo economy, helping you get as many cuts in as possible. It’s a solid roll for most activities and encounters but can really shine during boss damage phases. If you fancy some slightly different bonuses, you should consider eitherChain ReactionorEager Edgeinstead of Relentless Strikes. That way you can keep the high damage of Bait And Switch but can trade ammo recovery for some explosive power or extra mobility respectively.

For a different Destiny 2 Slammer god roll that is still very effective in high-end PVE activities, you should considerChain ReactionandCold Steel. As mentioned earlier, Chain Reaction really helps with clearing out weaker enemies while Cold Steel applies stacks of Stasis Slow with each hit. That means it synergizes very well with Stasis Subclasses and even some Prismatic builds, but it also means The Slammer can stun Overload Champions with ease – even Unstoppables aren’t safe if you’re able to apply enough Slow stacks, though it might be best if you pack a different weapon with Chill Clip, such as the Riptide Fusion Rifle, along with your god roll Slammer.© GamesRadar+.
