Exile's Curse (Adept)

Overview

Exile's Curse (Adept) is the Adept version of Exile's Curse, a Legendary Arc Fusion Rifle with a High-Impact Frame. It originated in Destiny (House of Wolves) and returned to Destiny 2 in Season of the Worthy. Notable perks on the base weapon include Quickdraw, Killing Wind and Slideshot in the first slot and Vorpal Weapon, High-Impact Reserves, Celerity and Kickstart in the second. Flavor text: "It's a blessing in disguise."

Acquisition

The Adept version of Exile's Curse is a harder-to-get variant from the Trials of Osiris loot pool. It is earned by a Flawless run (seven consecutive wins) to the Lighthouse and opening the Flawless chest there. Later seasons also let players focus Trials engrams with Saint-14 to get rolls of Adept weapons already earned. It was a Trials reward in an earlier season. Adept weapons take a special set of Adept mods and masterworking gives bonus stats beyond the masterwork's focus; see Adept weapons. Adept weapons dropped after Season of the Splicer also carry the Celerity perk. Availability changes by season.
